PART I

 

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

 

History

 

We were organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 18, 2005 as a vehicle to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business that primarily desires to seek the perceived advantages of a publicly-held corporation. On April 23, 2007, Rokwader completed an acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Latigo Shore Music, Inc. (“Latigo”). Substantially all of the business conducted by Rokwader is through Latigo, its wholly-owned subsidiary. Thereafter, we filed a registration statement on Form SB-2 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in order to undertake a public offering of shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $.75 per share, which registration statement was declared effective on May 13, 2008. We closed the offering after selling 318,504 shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $238,878. On June 13, 2012, we filed an Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized common stock from 100,000,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares. The number of preferred stock remained the same at 10,000,000 shares.

 

Corporate Overview

 

One of Latigo’s assets is a music catalog (the "Latigo Catalog") that was acquired as part of our acquisition of Latigo on April 23, 2007.  The current Latigo Catalog (including copyrights and publishing rights) consists of 106 original songs written in whole or in part by Andrew Dorff, an adult son of Steve Dorff, a director of the Company and President of Latigo.  Other songwriters and their publishing designees own the balance of the percentages of these songs.  This is standard procedure in the music industry as many songs are collaborations of more than one writer.  Other songwriters also sometimes have their own publishing designees.  Mr. Steve Dorff has also offered his services non-exclusively as a producer for Latigo's music production business and given Latigo a right of first refusal to any future productions he may undertake.

 

As a rule, total income is typically split 50% each between the publisher and the writer in a music publishing catalog. Publishers generally collect all income except for the “writers share” from public performance income. Writer’s receive their share of royalties for public performance directly from performing rights organizations such asBroadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) and the publishers only collect the “publisher’s share” of public performance income.

 

We have also begun to receive minimal royalties (revenues) from the Latigo acquisition of the Gary Harju music catalog in December, 2010.  The Gary Harju acquisition is helping to diversify our existing music catalog to give us a broader based platform going forward.  This catalog acquisition consists of all right, title and interest in 50 musical compositions from the Gary Harju music catalog to the extent of his writer's and publisher's share.  The total catalog (including copyrights and publishing rights) consists of original songs written in whole or in part by Gary Harju.  It is important to note that some of the songs are co-written by other songwriters and the other songwriters and their publishing designees own the balance of the percentages of these songs.  Songwriting is collaborative, so other co-writers usually have their own music publisher who collects their royalties, in addition to the writer’s receipt of monies from his own performing rights organization. Latigo collects only the income attributable to its writer’s co-writing share. This is standard procedure in the music industry since many songs are collaborations of more than one writer." Our total catalog, including the Latigo Catalog, consists of 156 songs.

 

We are hopeful of generating income from our songs through air play on radio, television and streaming music services, public performance at venues and restaurants, sales of CDs and digital downloads, and from synchronization licenses for film, television and commercials. In this regard we have commenced the marketing of our songs through music consultants and our contacts that call upon music professionals that are seeking new musical material (songs) for artists’ albums and for uses in films, television programs and commercials.

 

On January 24, 2013, Rokwader, the owner of 50% interest of the Andrew Dorff Catalog (the “Catalog”), acquired the remaining 50% interest of the catalog from Dillonpark, LLC, an entity of which Mr. Farar, the president and principal shareholder of Rokwader, is a member and manager. The purchase price for the Catalog was $22,000, which is the same amount that Dillonpark paid to acquire the Catalog. Furthermore, the purchase price is only required to be paid if and when the 50% interest produces cash through royalties or sales.

 

Rokwader, Inc. acquired 100 percent of the writer's share of the 106 musical compositions written or co-written by Andrew Dorff that mirror those same songs that are published and owned by Latigo, as per the agreement of May 2013 between Andrew Dorff and Latigo (the "Writer's Share") for $40,000. Music publishing and songwriter's share represent two different ownership interests. Rokwader believes that owning the publishing rights and 100 percent of the Writer's Share could be advantageous to the future of the Company and could make the Company stronger in its acquisition of additional music assets.

In their audit report dated March 26, 2014, our auditors have expressed an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business. For the year ended December 31, 2013 we had revenues of $5,689 and a net loss of $105,664.

   

Business Strategy

 

Latigo is in the music publishing business. The music publishing business includes copywriting musical compositions that are written by various songwriters and composers. Music publishers exploit the copyrights to produce revenues via sales of recordings and other musical usages such as commercials, radio plays and television shows. Latigo believes emerging technologies and the introduction of innovative business relationships in the current market allow for a unique opportunity for business expansion. Revenues for Latigo should be realized through publishing income on copyrights that we acquire.

 

As a small company we can operate with a creative hands-on approach to the selected few composers, songwriters, and artists that we currently promote. The music publishing business is primarily an intellectual property business focused on the exploitation of the song itself. In return for promoting, placing, marketing and the administration of the songwriter’s creativity, we receive a share of the revenues generated from the use of the song(s). We expect that our publishing revenue will be derived from two principal sources:

 

Mechanical: Latigo, as licensor receives royalties with respect to songs embodied in recordings sold in any format or configuration, including physical recordings (e.g. CD’s, DVD’s, video cassettes), online and wireless downloads.
Performance: Latigo, as licensor, receives royalties if the song is performed publicly through broadcast of music on television, radio, cable and satellite, live concert performances or other venues, such as nightclubs and stage theatrical productions.

 

In addition we are attempting to provide creative services to commercial songwriters in Country Western music.

 

Management Experience

 

Management is confident that their current officers, as well as the consultants and vendors they utilize at their discretion, are sufficient to execute the goals of Latigo, and operate the business through the initial phase of production and marketing.

 

Steve Dorff, the President of Latigo, is a long-time composer and producer. Mr. Dorff is a three-time Grammy nominee and has often been on the nation's top music charts. His résumé includes nine #1 film songs and 15 Top 10 hits, including the Kenny Rogers' classic "Through the Years", a BMI 3 million performance songs, as well as "I Just Fall In Love Again ", the Anne Murray record that captured Billboard's #1 Song Of The Year honors. His many songs have been sung by many artists including Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, George Strait, Vanessa Williams and others. Emmy Nominee for five television compositions, his credits include such stalwarts as "Murphy Brown" and "Murder She Wrote". He has also contributed to various television series’ like "Growing Pains", "Alien Nation", "Spenser: for Hire", "Major Dad", "Colombo", "Reba", and "Rodney".

 

His many TV and cable movie credits include the Emmy nominated CBS mini-series "Elvis", the Hallmark Hall of Fame "Rose Hill", the animated Christmas classic "Annabelle's Wish", "Babe Ruth", "The Quick and The Dead", "Moonshine Highway" and "The Defiant Ones". Mr. Dorff’s many movie songs and scores have been featured in "Bronco Billy", "Blast from the Past", "Rocky IV", "Pure Country", "Tin Cup", "Michael", "Dudley Do-Right", "Dancer, Texas", "The Last Boy Scout", "Curly Sue" and "Honky Tonk Man". Mr. Dorff was the musical director of the popular television show “the Singing Bee” on CMT (the “Country Music Television” channel).

 

Yale Farar, the president of the Company, besides being a sophisticated investor and businessman, began his career years ago in the music business as a radio DJ and later as a television talent coordinator and producer.

 

Gary Saderup, director and secretary, is an actor, producer of two small films and an artist. In the last 3 years Mr. Saderup has been a producer of and acted in 2 small film adaptations of Lincoln, a 2-hour one-man show.  In addition, he played the lead role and produced MacArthur, another film adaptation of a one-man show.

Industry Overview

 

Music is one of the primary entertainment forms of the modern era. The industry is highly competitive, based on consumer preferences, and changes rapidly due to consumer demand and advancements in technology. To be competitive, companies must be able to discover and develop artists and talents that have appeal beyond a domestic audience. They must also be able to successfully promote and market these acts, and maintain strong music publishing catalogues. These catalogues provide for lucrative business opportunities that can be exploited year after year, and are not at the mercy of changing technologies. The nature of copyrights is for their value to possibly increase over years with very minimal expense. For example: one song that gets recorded and sells units can generate income that can continue for many years. This one song can raise the value of the entire catalog. Furthermore, content in catalogs is affected minimally by digital piracy because content of copyrights is difficult to alter. The top five music consuming countries continue to be the United States, England, France, Japan, and Germany. Digital Piracy has grown dramatically, enabled by the increasing penetration of broadband Internet access and the ubiquity of powerful microprocessors, fast optical drives (particularly with writable media, such as CD-R) and large inexpensive disk storage in personal computers. The combination of these technologies has allowed consumers to easily, flawlessly and almost instantaneously make high quality copies of music using a home computer by “ripping” or converting musical content from CDs into digital files, stored on local disks. International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (“IFPI”) estimates that billions of songs are illegally downloaded every year.

 

Industrial Piracy (also called counterfeiting or physical piracy) involves mass production of illegal CDs and cassettes in factories. This form of piracy is largely concentrated in developing regions, and has existed for more than a decade.

 

 The industry has launched an intensive campaign to limit piracy that focused on four key initiatives:

 

Technological: The technological measures against piracy are geared towards degrading the illegal file sharing process and tracking providers and consumers of pirated music.
Educational: Led by Recording Industry Association of America (“RIAA”) and IFPI, the industry has launched an aggressive campaign of consumer education designed to spread awareness of the illegality of various forms of piracy through aggressive print and television advertisements.
Legal: In conjunction with its educational efforts, the industry has taken aggressive legal actions against file-sharers and is continuing to file industrial pirates.
Development of online and mobile alternatives: Most of the companies in the music industry believe that the development and success of legitimate digital music channels will be an important driver of recorded music sales going forward, as they represent both an incremental revenue stream and a potential inhibitor of piracy. The music industry has been encouraged by the recent proliferation and early success of legitimate digital music distribution options. We agree that these legitimate online distribution channels offer several advantages to illegal peer-to-peer networks, including greater ease of use, higher quality and more consistent music product, faster downloading, better search capabilities and seamless integration with portable digital music players.

 

These efforts are incremental to the long standing push by organizations such as IFPI to curb industrial piracy around the world. In addition to these actions, the music industry is increasingly coordinating with other similarly impacted industries (such as software and filmed entertainment) to combat piracy.

 

The music publishing market has proven to be more resilient than the recorded music market in recent years as revenue streams other than mechanical royalties are largely unaffected by piracy, and are benefiting from additional sources of income from digital exploitation of music in downloads.

 

 In addition, we have the opportunity to generate significant value by the acquisition of small publishers by extracting cost savings (as acquired libraries can be administered with little or no incremental cost) and by increasing revenues through more aggressive marketing efforts.

 

Competition

 

We encounter intense competition in our business. The competition is experienced, competent and they have far greater financial and marketing resources than we do. Our ability to compete effectively may be adversely affected by the ability of these competitors to devote greater resources to the development, sales and marketing of their services and artists than are available to us.

 

7


 
 

Almost all of our competitors offer a wider range of services and have greater name recognition and more extensive artist base and marketing outlets for their products than Latigo. We compete with other well known music companies and music publishers to identify and sign new artists and songwriters. In addition, our competitors may from time to time reduce their prices in an effort to expand market share and introduce new services, or improve the quality of their products or services. Our music publishing business competes not only with other music publishing companies, but also with songwriters who publish their own works. We are also dependent on securing artists that appeal to the music buying customers, and the competition with other music companies for such talent is intense.

 

We also anticipate significant competition from other recording companies, most of which have substantial financial, technical, marketing, and management resources. This has created a greater degree of difficulty in securing proven artists and acquiring musical works by well-known artists in ways that are economically viable. Due to the continuing limitation of platforms for their artists, there is no guarantee the various music companies like Latigo can successfully compete within the music business marketplace.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2013, we had one full time employee. The Company utilizes various independent contractors for marketing and accounting services.

 

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals.  If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected.  In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

 

Concentration of ownership will allow one shareholder to control Rokwader’s business

 

The President, and largest shareholder of Rokwader, currently owns approximately 66.3% of the outstanding stock of Rokwader. As a result, this shareholder will be able to exercise control over virtually all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporation transactions. Thus, the present management will be able to maintain their positions as Directors and effectively operate Rokwader’s business, regardless of other investors’ preferences.

 

Only one of our directors has any previous experience launching and operating a music/entertainment company, and our officers and directors have only limited experience in the management of start-up companies such as Latigo.

 

Other than Steve Dorff our officers and directors have no previous experience launching and operating a music/entertainment company, such as Rokwader and its Latigo subsidiary, although Mr. Farar and Mr. Saderup have experience investing in and managing companies and in coordinating and closing business combinations. They have only limited experience in establishing and growing a startup company such as Rokwader and its subsidiary, Latigo. As a result, we will continue to rely heavily on the experience and business acumen of Steve Dorff to establish an effective business strategy for our future music/entertainment operations.

 

There are no independent directors on our Board of directors which may create a conflict of interest.

 

All of the directors of the Company’s Board of Directors are either officers of the Company or its subsidiary. Because of this affiliation with the Company, they do not have the independence that an outside non-affiliated officer would command. This existing relationship between the directors and the Company may interfere with a director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. This lack of independence may also cause a conflict of interest between the directors, the Company and the Company’s stockholders.

 

The auditor’s report states there is substantial doubt about the ability of Preston to continue its operations as a going concern.

 

In their audit report dated March 26, 2014, our auditors have expressed an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business. Although at December 31, 2013, we had working capital of approximately $27,142, we have not yet generated any material operating revenues.  Our cash reserves will be used to primarily fund ongoing operations.  However, our inability to generate material revenues could eventually inhibit our ability to continue in business or achieve our business objectives.  Therefore any purchaser of our shares may be investing in a company that will not have the funds necessary to continue its business strategies. In addition, because of this “going concern” opinion it may be more difficult to attract investors.

As an “emerging growth company” we may take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies.

 

Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that, as an emerging growth company, we can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period by opting out of complying with the new or revised accounting standards. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

There is only a limited trading market for our common stock, which may adversely impact your ability to sell your shares.

 

There currently is only a limited trading market for our stock. There is no assurance that a more active public market will ever develop. You will likely not be able to sell your securities if a regular trading market for our securities does not develop and we cannot predict the extent, if any, to which investor interest will lead to the development of a viable trading market in our shares.

 

The music and entertainment business is highly speculative and there is a consequent risk of loss of your investment.

 

The success of Rokwader’s plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of its sole subsidiary Latigo. Latigo does not have an established operating history. The music and entertainment industry is a very speculative one with changing trends, music and movie themes, contemporary issues, age and gender preferences and other factors determining the success or failure of various types of music, theatre and movies. Consequently, there is no assurance that the interest in the musical catalogue currently owned by Latigo will find a significant audience or be commercial successes. Therefore, the success of our operations will be dependent upon management of Latigo’s business and numerous other factors beyond our control.

 

There will be additional dilution as additional shares are issued which may decrease the market price of our common stock.

 

Additional offerings of our common stock will likely have to be made in the future to raise capital to meet operating cash flow needs. Such offerings may include warrants for issuance of additional common stock, further diluting the number of shares of common stock outstanding from time to time. An increase in the number of our shares from these events or others may result in a decrease of the future potential market price for our common stock and will dilute the ownership interest of current shareholders.  

We have options and convertible debt issued and outstanding which are convertible into our common stock. A conversion of such securities could have a dilutive effect to existing stockholders.

As of December 31, 2013, we have options and convertible debt issued and outstanding exercisable at any time into 861,666 shares of our common stock at prices ranging from $0.375 to $0.75 per share. The options and convertible debt are exercisable in whole or in part. The exercise of the options and convertible debt into shares of our common stock could have a dilutive effect to the holdings of our existing stockholders.

 

We will incur increased costs and may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified directors and executive officers as a result of being a public company.

 

As a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting, reporting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We also incur costs associated with recently adopted corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as new rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. We also expect these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage. As a result, we may experience difficulty attracting and retaining qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur as a result of these requirements or when such costs may be incurred.

Our limited assets and the lack of revenues raise substantial doubt about our ability to carry on business operations.  

 

Rokwader has only generated a limited amount of revenues from operations. Consequently, we had a net loss of $105,664 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and a net loss of $195,449 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  As of December 31, 2013 we had a working capital deficiency of $(277,282) and $27,142 of cash available. The current cash resources may not be sufficient to satisfy the cash requirements of the Company over the next 12 months.

 

Our ability to continue operations is dependent upon our ability to successfully establish our business and secure additional funding sources.  To date, the proceeds from our IPO offering and investment and loans primarily from our principal stockholder has funded our current operations. Additional financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, if at all.

 

Due to our continuing losses from business operations, our independent auditor’s report dated July 31,2013, includes an explanatory paragraph which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our continued operations are dependent upon obtaining additional working capital either through significantly increasing revenues or through outside financing. We are currently operating with limited cash reserves and no revenues which could inhibit our ability to continue in business or achieve our business objectives. 

 

We lack business diversification, as we are only operating one business in one industry the music/entertainment industry, which makes us subject to all the risks and uncertainties of that industry.

 

Latigo is our sole operating business. Accordingly, the prospects for our success are entirely dependent upon the future performance of a single business in the music/entertainment industry. Unlike other entities with resources to consummate several business combinations or entities operating in multiple industries, we do not have the resources to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses. Consequently, our business is subject to the variable and speculative nature of the music/entertainment business. There is no assurance that our musical inventory, theatrical productions or future artists will achieve a commercially viable audience.

 

We will require substantial investment to develop and promote any music recordings we currently own, may develop or acquire and if we fail to raise sufficient capital to support and fund our expanding marketing and music development operations, our business plan may not be fully realized. 

 

We are in effect a company in the development stage, launching a business model within the music industry. We will require additional capital in order to acquire, develop, and distribute new music products, to pay for marketing efforts and fund our growth. In addition, we will need to adequately capitalize the development of each new artist and we may be required to spend greater-than-anticipated funds if unforeseen difficulties arise in the course of these or other aspects of our business. As a consequence, we believe that we will be required to raise additional capital through public or private equity or debt financings, collaborative relationships, bank financing or other arrangements. We cannot assure you that such additional capital will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any additional equity financing is expected to be dilutive to our stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and increased interest costs. While we anticipate that our current shareholders will continue to fund our operating expenses if necessary, there is no assurance that this will continue to be the case. Our inability to obtain sufficient financing may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our music development and distribution programs or to limit the operation or marketing of our music products. This could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

 

There is intense competition in Latigo's industry which may adversely affect the business operations of Rokwader.

 

There are numerous competitors in the music industry in which Latigo is currently involved or in which it intends to enter, most of which have developed product lines, strong marketing systems and established customer followings. In almost all cases, Latigo's competitors have far greater financial and other resources. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm Latigo's net revenue and results of operations. Latigo competes or will potentially compete with a variety of entertainment and music companies, most of which have operated for a longer period of time and have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources. Some of these competitors have established relationships with leading record labels. These competitors include national and independent record distributors, none of which has any existing relationship with Latigo. Further, Latigo may face a significant competitive challenge from alliances entered into between and among its competitors, as well as from larger competitors created through industry consolidation.

Efforts to protect intellectual property or the alleged misuse of the intellectual property of others may cause Latigo to become involved in costly and lengthy litigation which could divert needed resources away from its operations.

 

Latigo's success depends in part on its ability to obtain and preserve copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights, in connection with its music inventory, and services. Latigo currently has trademark or copyright protection relating to its musical catalog and may seek such protections with respect to other music or to its trade logos. The process of seeking trademark and copyright protection can be time consuming and expensive and no assurances can be given that (i) copyrights or trademarks applied for in the future will actually be issued, (ii) new copyrights will be sufficient in scope to provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage or (iii) others will not independently develop similar products or design around any copyrights Latigo is issued. If Latigo fails to protect its intellectual property from infringement, other companies may offer competitive products. Protection of our intellectual property if such should become necessary could result in costly and lengthy litigation, diverting resources which would otherwise be dedicated to operating the business.

 

The recorded music industry has been declining and may continue to decline which may adversely affect our prospects and results of operations. 

 

Since 1999 the recorded music industry has been unstable, which has adversely affected our operating results. The industry-wide decline can be attributed in part to digital piracy. Other reasons for this decline are the bankruptcies of record retailers and wholesalers, growing competition for consumer discretionary spending and retail shelf space, and the maturation of the CD format, which has slowed the historical growth pattern of recorded music sales. While CD sales still generate most of the recorded music revenues, CD sales continue to decline industry-wide and we expect that trend to continue. While new formats for selling recorded music product have been created, including the legal downloading of digital music using the Internet, DVD-Audio formats and the distribution of music on mobile devices, significant revenue streams from these new formats are just beginning to emerge. The recorded music industry performance may continue to negatively impact our operating results. In addition, a declining recorded music industry could continue to have an adverse impact on the music publishing business. This is because our music publishing business intends to generate a portion of its revenues from mechanical royalties received from the sales of music in recorded music formats such as the CD. The industry may continue to decline. In addition, there can be no assurances as to the timing or the extent of any improvement in the industry.

 

Our stock price may be volatile.

 

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:  

 

changes in our industry;
our ability to obtain working capital financing;
additions or departures of key personnel;
limited "public float”, in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;
our ability to execute our business plan;
operating results that fall below expectations;
loss of any strategic relationship;
regulatory developments;
economic and other external factors;

  

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.  These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future.  Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.  The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant.  If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

 

11


 
 

 

There is currently a limited liquid trading market for our common stock and we cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained.

 

To date there has been a nominal liquid trading market for our common stock.  We cannot predict how liquid the market for our common stock might become.  Our common stock is quoted for trading on the OTC Marketplace (“Pink OTC”) or pink sheets.  We are considering applying for listing of our common stock on the OTCQB or OTC Bulletin Board. Should  we decide not to file, or should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of such exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing and remains listed on the Pink OTC or suspended from the Pink OTC, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility.

 

 

Our common stock may be deemed a "penny stock," which would make it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

 

Our common stock may be subject to the "penny stock" rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act.  The penny stock rules generally apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share, other than companies that have had average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years or that have tangible net worth of at least $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years).  These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than "established customers" complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances.  Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited.  If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our securities.  If our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.

 

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issued in our private placements upon the effectiveness of the registration statement we expect to file, or upon the expiration of any statutory holding period, under Rule 144, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an "overhang" and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall.  The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. The shares of common stock sold in our private placements will be freely tradable upon the earlier of: (i) effectiveness of a registration statement covering such shares, or (ii) the date on which such shares may be sold without registration pursuant to Rule 144 (or other applicable exemption) under the Securities Act.

 

Our certificate of incorporation allows for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

Dividend Policy

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Under the terms of the Security Agreement with a related party described elsewhere herein, we are prohibited from declaring and paying dividends so long as there are amounts outstanding under the related secured credit line. Under Delaware law, we may declare and pay dividends on our capital stock either out of our surplus, as defined in the relevant Delaware statutes, or if there is no such surplus, out of our net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. If, however, the capital of our company, computed in accordance with the relevant Delaware statutes, has been diminished by depreciation in the value of our property, or by losses, or otherwise, to an amount less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets, we are prohibited from declaring and paying out of such net profits and dividends upon any shares of our capital stock until the deficiency in the amount of capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets shall have been repaired.

ITEM 7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this registration statement on Form 10, including “Risk Factors,” “Description of Our Business” and the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes in Item 13 – "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data". As discussed in Note 1 to our annual consolidated financial statements, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to meet our financing requirements, and the future success of our operations.  Our plans concerning these matters are also discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The various sections of this discussion contain a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this Report as well as other matters over which we have no control. See “Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results may differ materially.

 

Overview

 

Results of Operations

 

Our principal business objective for the next 12 months will be to achieve long-term growth through Latigo, our wholly-owned subsidiary. In this regard, we are putting extensive effort into marketing the songs in our catalogs, by introducing them to recording artists, producers and singers in order to try and get them recorded. When they are recorded and if successfully released they will generate royalties. We have retained music industry consultants that are bringing to the attention of active music industry parties the songs in our catalogs. We cannot at this time predict future results of our operations, as it is very difficult to predict success of released and marketed recordings. In the end, the public makes the final judgment by their purchases. Furthermore, the Company continues to review other business opportunities which include strategic relationships or mergers and acquisitions. Latigo is also interested in acquiring additional music catalogs. Latigo hopes to be able to receive publishing fees on the copyrights as other singers, movies, television, or other theatrical outlets utilize the songs in the catalog.

 

14


 
 

 

Latigo’s expenses associated with its business for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, were $2,320. Mr. Dorff has a fully equipped recording studio where Master Recordings and demos can be produced.

 

On January 24, 2013, the Company, which already owned a 50% interest of the Andrew Dorff Catalog (the “Catalog”), acquired the remaining 50 % interest of the catalog from Dillonpark, LLC, an entity of which Mr. Farar, the president and principal shareholder of the Company, is a member and manager. The purchase price for the Catalog was $22,000, which is the same amount that Dillonpark paid to acquire the Catalog. Furthermore, the purchase price is only required to be paid if and when the 50% interest produces cash through royalties or sales. There is no level of cash production required to trigger the commencement of repayment of the $22,000. To date the Catalog has not produced any revenue.

 

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

 

Revenues for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $5,689 and $5,927, respectively.

 

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $111,353 compared to $201,376 for the same comparable period in 2012. Operating expenses decreased by $90,023, or 81%, in 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred net losses of $(105,664) and $(195,449), respectively. The reduction in net loss for the year ended September 30, 2013, was principally due to the reduced legal and accounting fees associated with the requirements of reporting as a public company which the Company no longer had to pay. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had stockholders’ deficit of $(227,885) and $(152,721), respectively. By becoming a public company again, the Company expects the expenses associated with a public company to rise to pre-non-public company levels and therefore without corresponding revenues it will have a substantial adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

 

We expect our costs to continue to fluctuate until we begin to generate substantial increase in revenues.

 

 

Equity and Capital Resources

 

We have incurred losses since inception of our business (March 18, 2005) and, as of December 31, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,225,539.  As of December 31,, 2013, we had cash of $27,142 and a working capital deficit of $277,282.

 

To the extent that the Company's capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, the Company will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and the Company does not anticipate that existing shareholders will provide any portion of the Company's future financing requirements.  Although there is no contractual relationship between the Company and Mr. Farar, the President and principal shareholder, he has indicated that, if the Company continues to grow, he would favorably entertain funding corporate expenses for approximately another 24 months. Any additional capital advanced by Mr. Farar would most likely be in the form of a convertible promissory note at 6% interest (the “Note”) and convertible into common stock of the Company at a price equal to the closing bid price on the OTC.Pink on the date of the Note. There is no assurance that Mr. Farar will continue to support the Company. Without a further influx of monies, either from revenues or from outside investors, the Company will run out of funds within approximately six months.

 

No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have been filed as an exhibit to this registration statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities.

Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

 

As a small reporting company, we are not required to provide this information and have elected not to provide it.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Management is responsible for the integrity of the financial information presented herein.  Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Where necessary, they reflect estimates based on management's judgment.  When selecting or evaluating accounting alternatives, management focuses on those that produce from among the available alternatives information most useful for decision-making.  We believe that the critical accounting policies discussed below involve additional management judgment due to the sensitivity of the methods, assumptions and estimates necessary in determining the related asset, liability, revenue and expense amounts.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We follow the revenue recognition guidance in the Revenue Recognition Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC” or “Codification”). We recognize product revenue at the time product is shipped and title has transferred, provided that a purchase order has been received or a contract has been executed, there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, the sales price is fixed and determinable and collectability is deemed probable. If uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist, revenue is recognized when such uncertainties are resolved. There are no significant post-contract support obligations at the time of revenue recognition. Our accounting policy regarding vendor and post contract support obligations is based on the terms of the customers’ contracts and is billable upon occurrence of the post-sale support. Costs of products sold and services provided are recorded as the related revenue is recognized. Revenue is recognized at the time services or goods are provided. It is our policy to record contract losses in their entirety in the period in which such losses are foreseeable.

Fair Value Measurements

 

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, account payables, and short-term debt approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

 

Income Taxes

 

We recognize income taxes under the liability method. We recognize deferred income taxes for differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which differences are expected to reverse. We recognize the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.  We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in our financial statements.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation”.  Under the fair value recognition provisions, we are required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for share-based compensation measured at the grant date fair value of the award.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status 

 

The Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, permits an "emerging growth company" such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We are choosing to "opt out" of this provision and, as a result, we will not be complying with new or revised accounting standards as required when they are adopted. This decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.

 

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

From time to time, the FASB or other standards setting bodies will issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”).

 

16


 
 

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. Under this standard, entities testing long-lived intangible assets for impairment now have an option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. If an entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is more-likely-than-not less than the carrying amount, the existing quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required. For Global, this ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted under certain conditions. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance removes the option to present the components of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as part of the statement of equity. This guidance is effective for our fiscal year 2012, and must be applied retrospectively for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The new guidance does not apply to entities that have no items of OCI in any period presented. We do not anticipate that this new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not required.

Subsequent Events

 

On January 31, 2014 Brooktide, LLC loaned the Company $25,000 in accordance with a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) executed by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, this loan bears an interest rate equal to 6% per annum and is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into common stock of the Company at $.50 per share. The Note is a demand note and may be paid at any time without premium or penalty.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company filed a Form 15 with the SEC terminating its registration under the Exchange Act of 1934. The filing of the Form 15 also relieved the Company of any further SEC reporting requirements. This was a cost saving measure taken by the Board. The Board approved the dismissal of Marcum, LLP (“Marcum”) as its accountants. 

 

On April 16, 2012, the Company notified Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) of the dismissal of Marcum as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. 

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, Marcum’s reports on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that Marcum’s report included an explanatory paragraph emphasizing substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

 

17


 
 

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the subsequent periods through April 16, 2012 and December 18, 2013, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused Marcum to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements; and there were no reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

On January 10, 2014, the Company provided Marcum with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 14 on this Form 10, and requested that Marcum furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter, dated January 13, 2014, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 10.

 

On May 9, 2013, the Company retained the services of Anton & Chia, LLP, Newport Beach, California, as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm. 

 

During the two most recent fiscal years and through May 9, 2013, the Company has not consulted with Anton & Chia, LLP regarding any of the following:

 

 

(i) The application of accounting principles to specific transactions, either completed or proposed, or
(ii) The type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and none of the following was provided to the Company: (a) written report, or (b) oral advice that Anton & Chia, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues, or
(iii) Any matter that was a subject of a disagreement, or that Item 10 defined in Item 307(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.

 

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with an objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls are also designed with an objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer, in order to allow timely consideration regarding required disclosures.

 

The evaluation of our disclosure controls by our principal executive officer included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, the operation of the controls, and the effect of the controls on the information presented in this Annual Report. Our management, including our chief executive officer, does not expect that disclosure controls can or will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud, if any. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures to future periods are subject to the risk that the disclosure controls and procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013 were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.  There have been no material changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the (i) effectiveness and efficiency of operations, (ii) reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations.  Our internal controls framework is based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 

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.

 

Management's assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting is as of the year ended December 31, 2013. We believe that internal control over financial reporting is effective. We have not identified any, current material weaknesses considering the nature and extent of our current operations and any risks or errors in financial reporting under current operations.

 

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 rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Directors serve for a one-year term. There are currently no agreements or understandings whereby any officer or director would resign at the request of another person. None of our officers or directors is acting on behalf of or will act at the direction of any other person.

 

Board Committees

 

Audit, Compensation and Nominations Committees

 

We currently have no audit, compensation or nominating committee or other board committee performing equivalent functions. Currently, all members of our board of directors participate in discussions concerning the Company’s audits, executive officer compensation and nominations to the board of directors.

  

We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates which may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Board of Directors established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees, nor do we have a policy regarding director diversity. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our Board has not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board of Directors. Given our relative size and lack of directors and officers insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders will make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees. In considering a director nominee, it is likely that our Board will consider the professional and/or educational background of any nominee with a view towards how this person might bring a different viewpoint or experience to our Board.

 

Neither of our directors is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K. In general, an “audit committee financial expert” is an individual member of the audit committee or Board of Directors who:

 

understands generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements,
is able to assess the general application of such principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves,
has experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements comparable to the breadth and complexity to our financial statements,
understands internal controls over financial reporting, and
understands audit committee functions.

Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include “independent” directors, nor are we required to establish or maintain an Audit Committee or other committee of our Board of Directors.

 

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct 

 

 

Our board of directors has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees, in accordance with applicable federal securities laws and the FINRA Rules.

  

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common shares and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, and to the best of our knowledge, all executive officers, directors and persons holding greater than 10% of our issued and outstanding stock have filed the required reports in a timely manner. 

 

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

 

The following table summarizes all compensation recorded by us in 2013 and 2012 for our principal executive officer, each other executive officer serving as such whose annual compensation exceeded $100,000, and up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been made in this table but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of our company at December 31, 2013.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Rokwader Inc. (A Development Stage Company)

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rokwader, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and for the period from March 18, 2005 (Inception) through December 31, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 misstatement. The Company was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated 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 financial positions of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and for the period from March 18, 2005 (Inception) through 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 the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2, the Company has had no revenues and accumulated deficit of $1,225,539 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 the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which includes the raising of additional equity financing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ROKWADER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

HISTORY

 

ROKWADER, INC. (the Company), a development stage company, was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 18, 2005.

 

DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE

 

The Company is a development stage company as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 915 related to Development Stage Entities . With the acquisition of Latigo Shore Music, Inc. (Latigo) as a subsidiary, the Company has commenced operations and has become operational. The Company qualifies as a development stage company as it has not generated significant revenues. All losses accumulated since inception has been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.

 

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rokwader, Inc. and subsidiary. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

GOING CONCERN AND PLAN OF OPERATION

 

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern. Although the Company has commenced operations, it has not generated significant revenues from operations to date, and still meets the requirements of a development stage company. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,225,539 as of December 31, 2013.

 

To the extent that the Company’s capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, the Company will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and the Company does not anticipate that existing shareholders will provide any portion of the Company’s future financing requirements.

 

No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company and raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company follows the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740 related to Income Taxes. According to Topic 740, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of temporary differences between the tax basis of the assets and liabilities and their financial amounts at year-end.

 

For federal income tax purposes, substantially all expenses incurred prior to the commencement of operations must be deferred and then they may be written off over a 180-month period. Tax deductible losses can be carried forward for 20 years until utilized for federal tax purposes. The Company will provide a valuation allowance in the full amount of the deferred tax assets since there is no assurance of future taxable income.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

 

The Company utilizes the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740 related to Income Taxes to account for the uncertainty in income taxes. Topic 740 for Income Taxes clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing rules for recognition, measurement and classification in financial statements of tax positions taken or expected to be in a tax return. Further, it prescribes a two-step process for the financial statement measurement and recognition of a tax position. The first step involves the determination of whether it is more likely than not (greater than 50 percent likelihood) that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step requires that any tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold be measured and recognized in the financial statements at the largest amount of benefit that is a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. This topic also provides guidance on the accounting for related interest and penalties, financial statement classification and disclosure. The Company’s policy is that any interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in income tax expense when incurred. The Company has no uncertain tax positions or related interest or penalties requiring accrual at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less.

 

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

 

The Company maintains all cash in deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced a loss in such accounts.

 

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

 

The Company has not presented a separate statement of other comprehensive income (loss) as there are no such items.

 

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic earnings per common share are computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share consists of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effects of options and warrants calculated using the treasury stock method. In loss periods, dilutive common equivalent shares are excluded as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

 

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

The realizability of long-lived assets is evaluated periodically as events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover the carrying amount. Long-lived assets that will no longer be used in our business are written-off in the period identified since they are no longer expected to generate any positive cash flows for us. Long-lived assets that continue to be used by us are periodically evaluated for recoverability. Such evaluation is based on various analyses, including cash flow and profitability projections. The analyses necessarily involve significant management judgment. In the event the projected undiscounted cash flows are less than net book value of the assets, the carrying value of the assets is written down to its estimated fair value.

 

During 2010, the Company determined that, based on estimated future cash flows, the carrying amount of the intangible assets acquired in the purchase of Latigo Shore Music, Inc., including the Music Copyright Costs and Master Compact Disks exceed their fair value by $18,942 each. Accordingly, an impairment loss of $37,884 was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2010 related to these intangibles. No impairment loss was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2013. Additionally, during 2010, the Company determined that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, a goodwill impairment loss of $41,664 was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2010. No goodwill loss was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2013.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

As required by FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”), the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is probable.

 

Revenues are earned from the receipt of royalties relating to the licensing of rights in musical compositions. The receipt of royalties principally relates to amounts earned from the public performance of copyrighted material, the mechanical reproduction of copyrighted material on recorded media including digital formats, and the use of copyrighted material in synchronization with visual images. Consistent with industry practice, music publishing royalties generally are recognized as revenue when cash is received. Revenue generally is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In July 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update covering Topic 740, Income Taxes. The update addresses the ambiguous guidance on financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when net operating loss carry forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax carry forward exists in order to unify currently diverse practices. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose. The unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. Implementation of this update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to improve the reporting reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments require an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income. Under GAAP, the amount reclassified must be represented to its entirety and display its effects on net income. Other amounts that are not required under U.S GAAP are to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in which the entity is required to cross reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This update does not change current reporting standards of net income or comprehensive income, but is requesting additional information about reclassified amounts out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. An entity also must present either on the face of the statement where net income is presented, or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. Implementation of this update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In January 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to address implementation issues about the scope of Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The purpose of this update is to clarify previous text regarding the scope of offsetting disclosures and limiting diversity in practice. The amendments clarify that the scope of Update 2011-11 applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the required disclosures retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The effective date is the same as the effective date of Update 2011-11. Implementation of this update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to address the recurring cost and complexity of performing a quantitative impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill, especially when the circumstances indicated a low likelihood of impairment. The purpose of this update is to reduce cost and complexity of performing impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by simplifying how entities test those assets for impairment and to improve consistency in testing. In accordance with the amendments of this update, the entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors in order to determining the existence of events that may cause an impairment to occur. If determined that impairment has not occurred, the entity is not required to take any further action. If the entity determines otherwise, it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived tangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount. Implementation of this update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On February 1, 2006, the Company completed an initial registered public offering of its common stock pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form SB−2 (File No. 333−125314) that the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective on November 2, 2005 (the “Registration Statement”). The Company offered and sold 125,000 registered shares of the Company's common stock, at a price of $1.00 per share. Pursuant to Rule 419 of Regulation C, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company deposited all proceeds of the offering and the shares sold into an escrow account. The offering was conducted by the Company's management without the use of an underwriter or securities dealer and the Company has not paid and will not pay commissions in connection with the sale of the shares. The shares sold and the proceeds of the offering were held in escrow pending completion of a business combination. The Company had until May 2, 2007 to consummate a qualifying business combination with another entity.

 

Accordingly, the $125,000 subject to the withdrawal restrictions had been classified as restricted cash, and in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 480 related to Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, a liability was recorded for the obligation to repay these amounts to the investors if an acquisition is not consummated. On April 10, 2007, the Company returned these funds to the investors including interest as management determined that a qualifying business combination would not occur by May 2, 2007.

 

On August 16, 2007, the Company issued shares of its common stock for services rendered. As a result, Mitchell W. Turk received 32,000 shares of common stock, Gary Saderup received 17,500 shares of common stock, Steve Dorff received 30,000 shares of common stock, and William B. Barnett received 25,000 shares of common stock. The shares of common stock issued are restricted shares and each share certificate contains a legend restricting sales and transfers.

 

The Company applied the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 505 related to Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees to account for these shares issued. According to Topic 505, issuance of equity instruments for services received are based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued or on the fair value of the services received, whichever is a more reliable measure. The Company used the value of its common stock shares to account for this transaction. The value of its shares is deemed more reliable as it was obtained from the valuation of an unrelated valuation specialist.

 

On August 16, 2007, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to Brooktide, LLC (a company controlled by Mr. Yale Farar) in full satisfaction of $280,000 plus interest owed to Mr. Farar. The shares of common stock are restricted shares and the share certificates contain a legend restricting sales and transfers.

 

On September 26, 2007, in order to provide a fair and reasonable percentage in ownership of the Company and a fair and reasonable share price for potential future investors, the Company adjusted its capitalization. The Company received, from Brooktide, LLC (a company controlled by Mr. Yale Farar), 544,286 shares of common stock for cancellation. The Company cancelled and returned the shares of common stock to authorized but unissued status.

 

The Company, in its development stage, does not have a history of operations, and there is no liquid market for trading the Company’s stock. Subsequently, determining the fair value of our common stock requires making complex and subjective judgments. The valuation of the per share value of the Company’s common stock was determined contemporaneously by the Board of Directors, in its best judgment. Over the past year, the Company’s share valuation has fluctuated in response to the Company’s varying business condition.

 

Significant Factors, Assumptions, and Methodologies Used in Determining Fair Value

 

Significant factors and assumptions used in determining the Company’s fair value of its common stock include, future prospects for business, economic conditions of the music industry, debt restructuring, availability of capital resources, and cancellation of outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Significant Factors contributing to the Difference between Fair Value as of the Date of Each Grant and Estimated IPO Price

 

In April 2007 the Company acquired Latigo Shore Music, Inc. which business had been valued at $100,000 by an independent business appraisal firm. In light of the perceived future potential of Latigo’s music inventory and industry experience of Latigo’s President, the Company and Latigo’s President agreed on a per share valuation of $1.00 per share of the Company’s common stock. This valuation was determined after arms-length negotiations between the Company and Latigo and was accepted as a fair valuation by the parties to this transaction.

NOTE 2 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (CONTINUED)

 

In August 2007, the Company’s ability to continue operations was in question and a restructuring of debt was deemed imperative. The Board considered the then net worth of the Company, the reduced prospects for business at the time, the general economic conditions in the music industry and the subjective value related to development stage companies. Faced with these circumstances, the Board determined a significantly reduced value of $0.28 per share was justified. In October 2007, the Company obtained a retrospective independent valuation of the Company’s stock as of August 16, 2007 of $0.28 per share thus supporting the Board’s valuation. An unrelated valuation specialist performed this independent valuation.

 

In October 2007, when the public offering price was being considered, the Company had recently significantly restructured its debt, had reduced the number of outstanding shares and had received additional loans from its President. In addition, by late 2007, the Company was seeing increased interest in Latigo’s business and music catalog thus enhancing the prospects for business. These internal and external factors, along with the fact that shares offered in the proposed initial public offering (“IPO”) would be freely tradable, convinced the Board that the fair valuation of the Company’s stock in the public offering should be $0.75 per share.

 

The Company’s business prospects and capitalization have been fluid from month to month and period to period. The Board of Directors, in setting fair values on stock issuances, uses its best judgment to evaluate the then current business condition and prospects for the Company and its industry and determines stock valuation to reflect current business conditions and prospects. Consequently, as business conditions have fluctuated over the past 12 months, so has the Company’s stock valuation as determined by the Board. Future variations in the Company’s stock price should be anticipated.

 

The Company filed a registration statement, Form S-1, with the SEC on December 6, 2007. The SEC declared the registration statement effective on May 13, 2008. On August 5, 2008, the Company closed its initial public offering after selling 318,504 shares of its common stock at a price of $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $238,878. After $66,127 of offering costs, the net proceeds totaled $172,751. Net proceeds will be used to acquire music catalogues, for music production and promotion and for general working capital.

 

On August 29, 2008, the Company’s board of directors agreed to issue 9,000 stock options to Mr. Gary Saderup for the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock. The stock options are exercisable at $0.75 per share and expire 2 years from the date of grant. On August 26, 2010, the Company and Mr. Saderup mutually agreed to extend the exercise date of these options to August 28, 2012.

 

On August 31, 2008, the Company additionally agreed to enter into a consulting agreement with Mr. Stephen Horwitz. According to the agreement, Mr. Horwitz would act as a consultant to the Company for 18 months. The Company will grant Mr. Horwitz warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. Warrants to purchase 12,500 shares will be granted upon execution of the consulting agreement. The warrants to purchase the remaining 12,500 shares were to be granted in 90 days, subject to approval by the President of the Company as to the quality of the work performed by Mr. Horwitz. On November 26, 2008, the Board of Directors denied the grant of the remaining 12,500 shares. Additionally, the consulting agreement expired on June 1, 2009, a total of nine months. The 12,500 warrants issued expire 2 years from the date of grant. On August 26, 2010, the Company and Mr. Horwitz mutually agreed to extend the exercise date of these warrants to August 28, 2012. As a result of this modification, and the modification described above, the Company recognized $7,437 in stock-based compensation in the 2010 consolidated statement of operations.

 

The Company applied the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 505 related to Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees to account for these options and warrants issued. According to Topic 505, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments shall be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company believes that fair value of these options and warrants is a more reliable measure of the consideration received for services performed for the Company. We determined the fair value of these equity instruments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Factors used in the determination of the fair value of these equity instruments include, the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the equity instrument, the volatility of the underlying stock, the expected dividends on it, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the equity instrument. The initial fair value of these options and warrants granted was $7,566 which was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

 

At December 31, 2010, the 21,500 vested options are outstanding at an exercise price of $0.75 per share and there is no intrinsic value. Compensation cost charged to operations was $7,437 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Compensation cost charged to operations was $11,250 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

On January 3, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with CSB IV US Holdings, LLC (“Purchaser”) to sell 70,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $.50 per share. The proceeds from this sale will be used to pay fees and expenses; to the extent such expenses are not deferred, arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements and to continue to create viable entertainment assets in the music recording industry.

On June 15, 2011, the Company issued 25,000 shares its common stock, at a price of $0.50 per share, to Mr. Steve Dorff for services rendered. The shares of common stock issued are restricted shares and each share certificate contains a legend restricting sales and transfers. The Company determined that the price of $0.50 per share was a fair value for the shares issued to Mr. Dorff based on its most recent securities sale transaction.

 

On July 27, 2011 the Company issued 60,000 shares of common stock to Brooktide, LLC (a company controlled by Mr. Yale Farar) in full satisfaction of $30,000 owed to Brooktide, LLC. The shares of common stock are restricted shares and the share certificates contain a legend restricting sales and transfers.

 

On September 16, 2011, Mr. Stephen Horowitz exercised his 12,500 warrants to purchase 12,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share.

The stock options are exercisable at $0.75 per share and expire 2 years from the date of grant.

 

The stock option expense included in general and administrative expense for the year-ended December 31, 2013 is $0 and December 31, 2012 is $121,077.  ASC 718. “Compensation-Stock Compensation” requires that only the compensation expense expected to vest be recognized.

 

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table.  The expected volatility is based on the daily historical volatility of comparative companies, measured over the expected term of the option.  The risk-free rate is based on the implied yield on a U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issue with a remaining term closest to the expected term of the option.

 

The dividend yield reflects that the Company has not paid any cash dividends since inception and does not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The following assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the options at date of original issuance on August 3, 2012:

 

   August 3, 2012
Dividend yield   0 
Expected volatility   100%
Risk-free interest rate   0.38%
Term in years   1.58

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On August 16, 2007, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Yale Farar in full satisfaction of $280,000 plus interest owed to him. The shares of common stock are restricted shares and the share certificates contain a legend restricting sales and transfers. The $280,000 owed to Mr. Farar was comprised of the $170,000 loan to the Company, including $50,000 on March 30, 2007, pursuant to the Agreement to Advance Funds dated September 21, 2005 and the $110,000 loan to the Company in accordance with the 6% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note on April 26, 2007.

 

Mr. Yale Farar, President, had loaned the Company $170,000, including $50,000 on March 30, 2007, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement to Advance Funds dated September 21, 2005, as amended. The Company used these funds to make payments for its general and administrative expenses and deferred offering costs. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements to Advance Funds dated September 21, 2005, as amended, the loans were on an interest-free basis, documented by promissory notes and payable only upon consummation of a merger transaction or Event of Default, as defined by the promissory notes.

 

On April 26, 2007, Mr. Farar, the President of Rokwader, loaned the Company $110,000 in accordance with a 6% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) executed by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the loan bears interest at 6% per annum and absent an “Event of Default,” was payable on demand or upon receipt by the Company of not less than $500,000 in capital or sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or 80% of the Company’s capital stock. The proceeds of the Note were used to complete the acquisition of Latigo and to pay fees and expenses, to the extent such expenses were not deferred, arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements.

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

 

The proceeds of the Note were used to pay fees and expenses arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements and to continue to create viable entertainment assets in the music recording industry. Additionally, the proceeds of the Note were used to pay for costs relating to its registration statement with the SEC, which was declared effective May 13, 2008 and finalized on August 5, 2008.

 

Based on a conversion price of $0.375, the convertibility does not result in a beneficial conversion feature as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 related to Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Further, per the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815 related to Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the debt meets the definition of conventional convertible debt and bifurcation of the embedded derivative is not necessary.

 

Additionally, Brooktide, LLC owns a controlling interest in the Company’s common stock. Mr. Farar, the President of Rokwader, is the sole manager of Brooktide, LLC. As a sole manager, Mr. Farar has voting and investment power over the shares owned by Brooktide, LLC.

 

The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. Most office services are provided without charge by the president. In addition, Mr. Dorff, director and President of Latigo provides music studio facilities to us at no cost. Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and accordingly, have not been reflected therein.

 

The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities, such that they may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.

 

On February 12, 2009, the Company issued 15,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $0.75 per share to Mr. Steve Dorff for services performed. Using the results of its initial public offering performed on August, 5, 2008, the Company determined that the price of $0.75 per share was a fair value for the shares issued to Mr. Steve Dorff.

 

 

The Company applied the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 505 related to Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees to account for these shares issued. According to Topic 505, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments shall be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliable measure. The Company believes that the fair value of these shares is a more reliable measure of the consideration received for services performed for the Company.

 

On April 14, 2010, Mr. Yale Farar, the President of Rokwader, loaned the Company $25,000 in accordance with a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) executed by the Company.

The Note is a demand note and may be paid at any time without premium or penalty. The outstanding balance on the Note is immediately due and payable without notice or demand, upon or at anytime after the occurrence or existence of any one or more of the listed “Events of Default.” The proceeds of the Note were used to pay fees and expenses arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements.

 

On December 17, 2010, Brooktide, LLC loaned Latigo Shore Music, Inc. (“Latigo”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, $16,000 in accordance with a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) executed by Latigo. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, this loan bears an interest rate equal to 6% per annum and is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into common stock of the Company at $0.75 per share. The Note is a demand note and may be paid at any time without premium or penalty. The outstanding balance on the Note is immediately due and payable without notice or demand, upon or at any time after the occurrence or existence of any one or more of the listed “Events of Default.”

On June 15, 2011, the Company issued 25,000 shares its common stock, at a price of $0.50 per share, to Mr. Steve Dorff for services rendered. The shares of common stock issued are restricted shares and each share certificate contains a legend restricting sales and transfers. Based on the Company’s most recent securities sale transaction, the Company determined that the price of $0.50 per share was a fair value for the shares issued to Mr. Dorff.

On July 27, 2011 Brooktide, LLC loaned the Company $30,000 in accordance with a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) executed by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, this loan bears an interest rate equal to 6% per annum and is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into common stock of the Company at $0.50 per share. The Note is a demand note and may be paid at any time without premium or penalty. The outstanding balance on the Note is immediately due and payable without notice or demand, upon or at any time after the occurrence or existence of any one or more of the listed “Events of Default.” The proceeds of the Note were used to pay fees and expenses; to the extent such expenses are not deferred, arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements and to continue to create viable entertainment assets in the music recording industry.

 

Based on a conversion price of $0.50, the convertibility does not result in a beneficial conversion feature as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 related to Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Because the conversion price at issuance is the same as the estimated price of the Company’s common stock based on recent issuances of common stock at $0.50 per share (see Note 2).  Further, per the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815 related to Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the debts meet the definition of conventional convertible debts and bifurcation of the embedded conversion feature is not necessary as the embedded conversion feature is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the debts.

 

On September 21, 2011, the Company issued 60,000 shares of common stock to Brooktide, LLC in full satisfaction of $30,000 owed to Brooktide, LLC.

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

 

Based on a conversion price of $0.75, the convertibility does not result in a beneficial conversion feature as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 related to Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Because the conversion price at issuance is the same as the estimated price of the Company’s common stock based on recent issuances of common stock at $0.75 per share (see Note 5).  Further, per the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815 related to Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the debts meet the definition of conventional convertible debts and bifurcation of the embedded conversion feature is not necessary as the embedded conversion feature is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the debts.

 

On April 2, 2012, the Company sold 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.75 per share to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Mitchell W. Turk. The proceeds from this sale will be used to pay fees and expenses; to the extent such expenses are not deferred, arising from the Company’s compliance with its public reporting requirements and to continue to create viable entertainment assets in the music recording industry.

 

On August 3, 2012, the Company’s board of directors agreed to issue 25,000 stock options to Mr. William Barnett, 25,000 stock options to Mr. Mitchell Turk, 25,000 stock options to Mr. Gary Saderup, 25,000 stock options to Mr. Steve Dorff, and 250,000 stock options to Brooktide, LLC for the purchase of the Company’s shares of common stock. The stock options are exercisable at $0.75 per share and expire 2 years from the date of grant. As a result of the issuance of these stock options, the Company recognized $121,077 in stock-based compensation in the 2012 consolidated statement of operations.

 

The Company applied the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 505 related to Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees to account for these options and warrants issued. According to Topic 505, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments shall be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company believes that fair value of these options and warrants is a more reliable measure of the consideration received for services performed for the Company. We determined the fair value of these equity instruments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Factors used in the determination of the fair value of these equity instruments include, the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the equity instrument, the volatility of the underlying stock, the expected dividends on it, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the equity instrument.

The Company will amortize the costs of the Harju Catalog over its estimated useful life based on projected net revenues. The Company projects to generate revenues from the Harju Catalog for an estimate of 20 years based on Mr. Harju’s past accomplishments and the ability of the recorded music to generate revenues for long periods of time.
