PART I
Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Report”) are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this Report, words such as “may,” “should,” “seek,” “believe,” “expect,” ”anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “strategy” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward- looking statements regarding events, conditions and financial trends that may affect the Company’s future plans, operations, business strategies, operating results and financial position. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, trends, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry trends and results, to differ materially from the future results, trends, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
These risks and uncertainties include, among others: general economic and business conditions in the United States and other countries in which the Company’s customers, suppliers, and service providers are located; industry conditions and trends; technology changes; competition and other factors which may affect prices which the Company may charge for its products and its profit margins; the availability and cost of the inventory purchased by the Company; relative value of the United States dollar to currencies in the countries in which the Company’s customers, suppliers and competitors are located; changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulation, principally environmental regulations; the Company’s ability to implement changes in its business strategies and development plans; and the availability, terms and deployment of debt and equity capital if needed for expansion. These and certain other factors are discussed in this Report and from time to time in other Company reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not assume an obligation to update the factors discussed in this Report or such other reports.
ITEM 1 Business
Business Marketing Services, Inc.’s (“BMSV” or the “Company”) is a development stage company.
We believe that we can create value for businesses in the entertainment industry and value for end users by making enforcement of copyright more efficient and by lowering costs of delivery of digital content to a minimum with new technology.
We are planning to obtain license agreements for digital content. We are planning partnerships to access state-of-the-art technology for storage and delivery of digital content to consumers. We are planning to make strategic acquisitions to realize our plans.
We might alter our plans if we do not succeed in raising funds to start the projects or if we do not succeed in obtaining license agreements that are essential for the business we envisage.
Recent Developments and Changes to Business Plan
On January 19, 2010, Hans Pandeya, our current CEO and director, acquired the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, from Doug Black, in accordance with a common stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) between Hans Pandeya, Doug Black and the Company. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Hans Pandeya acquired fifteen million (15,000,000) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock representing approximately 78% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, for a total purchase price of Three Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand dollars ($325,000).
On January 7, 2013, Mrs Majken Hummel-Gumaelius was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director of the Company. Mrs. Hummel-Gumaelius has not been appointed to any committees of the Board, as the Board does not presently have any committees.
Employees
As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s sole employee was Mrs Majken Hummel-Gumaelius, its President and Chief Executive Officer.

ITEM 1A Risk Factors
An investment in the Company’s common stock is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this report before purchasing any shares of the Company’s common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties may also adversely impair the Company’s business operations. Such factors may have a significant impact on its business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition. As a result of the identified risk factors, actual results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company, or that are currently considered to be immaterial, may also impact the Company’s business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition. If any such risks occur, the Company’s business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition could be materially affected in an adverse manner. In addition, the trading price of the Company’s stock, when and if a market develops for the Company’s stock, could decline.
Risks Related to the Company
We Have A Limited Operating History That You Can Use To Evaluate Us, And The Likelihood Of Our Success Must Be Considered In Light Of The Problems, Expenses, Difficulties, Complications And Delays Frequently Encountered By A Small Developing Company. There Is No Assurance Our Future Operations Will Result In Profitable Revenues. If We Cannot Generate Sufficient Revenues To Operate Profitably, We Will Cease Operations.
We have no significant financial resources. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered by a small developing company starting a new business enterprise and the highly competitive environment in which we will operate. Since we have a limited operating history, we cannot assure you that our business will be profitable or that we will ever generate sufficient revenues to meet our expenses and support our anticipated activities.
Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:
●
|
our ability to identify and pursue mediums through which we will be able to market our services;
|
●
|
our ability to attract and retain customers;
|
●
|
our ability to generate revenues through sales of our products; and
|
●
|
our ability to manage growth by managing administrative overhead.
|
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be incurring expenses and generating limited revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Our failure to generate revenues in a timely manner would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
We Will Require Financing To Achieve Our Current Business Strategy And Our Inability To Obtain Such Financing Could Prohibit Us From Executing Our Business Plan And Cause Us To Slow Down Our Expansion or Cease Our Operations.
We will need to raise a minimum of $ 1 million over the next twelve months through public or private debt or sale of equity to execute our business and marketing plan and to get our operations to profitability. Such financing may not be available as needed. Even if such financing is available, it may be on terms that are materially adverse to your interests with respect to dilution of book value, dividend preferences, liquidation preferences, or other terms. If we are unable to obtain this financing on reasonable terms, we would be unable to hire the additional employees needed to execute our business plan and we would be forced to delay or scale back our plans for expansion. This would delay our ability to get our operations to profitability and could force us to cease operations. In addition, such inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.
2
Moreover, in addition to monies needed to continue operations over the next twelve months, we anticipate requiring additional funds in order to execute any future plans for growth. No assurance can be given that such funds will be available or, if available, will be on commercially reasonable terms satisfactory to us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing if or when it is needed on terms we deem acceptable.
We face Intense Competition And Our Inability To Successfully Compete With Our Competitors Will Have A Material Adverse Effect On Our Results Of Operation.
The social networking software industry is highly competitive. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, broader service lines and greater financial resources and advertising budgets than we do. Many of our competitors offer similar services or alternatives to our services. There can be no assurance that we will procure a market that will be available to support the services we will offer or allow us to seek expansion. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively in this marketplace.
If We Do Not Attract Customers On Cost-Effective Terms, We Will Not Make A Profit, Which Ultimately Will Result In A Cessation Of Operations.
Our success depends on our ability to attract customers on cost-effective terms. If we are unsuccessful at attracting a sufficient number of clients, our ability to get repeat customers and our financial condition will be harmed.
We are controlled by current officers, directors and principal stockholders.
Our insiders beneficially own approximately 78% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, our insiders will have the ability to control the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of issues submitted to our common stockholders for a vote.
Our insiders could also delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur. Accordingly, these insiders may be able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with the Company even if its other stockholders wanted it to occur.
We may be unable to manage our growth or implement our expansion strategy.
We may not be able to expand our product and service offerings, our client base and markets, or implement the other features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. Our projected growth will place a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources. If we are unable to successfully manage our future growth, establish and continue to upgrade our operating and financial control systems, recruit and hire necessary personnel or effectively manage unexpected expansion difficulties, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Any Inability to adequately protect our intellectual property could harm our ability to compete.
Our future success and ability to compete depends in part upon our intellectual property, which we attempt to protect with a combination of copyright and trademark laws, as well as with contractual provisions. These legal protections afford only limited protection and are time-consuming and expensive to obtain and/or maintain. Further, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property.
3
Our involvement in intellectual property litigation could adversely affect our business.
If we are alleged to infringe the intellectual property rights of a third party, any litigation to defend the claim could be costly and would divert the time and resources of management, regardless of the merits of the claim. There can be no assurance that we would prevail in any such litigation. If we were to lose a litigation relating to intellectual property, we could, among other things, be forced to pay monetary damages and/or to cease the sale or use of certain products. Any of the foregoing may adversely affect our business.
Compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404
The SEC extended the deadline for compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to smaller reporting companies to annual filings after June 30, 2010 therefore the Company‘s first year of required compliance is as of December 31, 2010. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could prevent the Company from producing reliable financial reports or identifying fraud. In addition, shareholders could lose confidence in the Company’s financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on its stock price.
Effective internal controls are necessary for the Company to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, and a lack of effective controls could preclude the Company from accomplishing these critical functions. The Company will be required to document and test its internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and a report by its independent registered public accounting firm addressing these assessments.
During the course of the Company’s testing, it may identify deficiencies that the Company may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if the Company fails to maintain the adequacy of its internal accounting controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, the Company may not be able to ensure that it can conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause the Company to face regulatory action and also cause investors to lose confidence in its reported financial information, either of which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s stock price.
Risks Relating to the Company’s Securities
There is not now, and there may not ever be, an active market for our shares of common stock.
There can be no assurance that an active market for our common stock will develop. If an active public market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may not be able to re-sell the shares of our common stock that they own and may lose all of their investment.
4
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Should an active public market develop and our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, shares sold at a price below the current market price at which the common stock is trading will cause that market price to decline. Moreover, the offer or sale of a large number of shares at any price may cause the market price to fall. These sales also may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.
The market price of the Company’s common stock may be volatile.
The market price of the Company’s common stock will likely be highly volatile, as is the stock market in general, and the market for OTC Bulletin Board quoted stocks in particular. Some of the factors that may materially affect the market price of the Company’s common stock are beyond the Company’s control, such as changes in financial estimates by industry and securities analysts, announcements made by the Company’s competitors or sales of the Company’s common stock. These factors may have a material adverse effect on the market price of the Company’s common stock, regardless of the Company’s performance.
In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility. This volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities of many companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.
Issuance of Additional Shares of our Common Stock for financing or debt conversion could cause significant dilution for our current stockholders.
The Company needs to raise additional funds in the future. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of the current stockholders of the Company will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution and such securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the common stock and may have covenants that impose restrictions on the Company’s operations.
We may not be able to remain current in our SEC reporting requirements.
If the Company fails to remain current on its reporting requirements, it could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board which would limit the ability of broker dealers to sell its securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If the Company fails to remain current on its reporting requirements, it could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for the Company’s securities could be severely affected and limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market. In addition, the Company may be unable to get re-listed on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may have an adverse material effect on the Company.
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.
The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future, so any return on investment may be limited to the value of the Company’s stock. The Company plans to retain any future earnings to finance growth.
Our Common Stock will be subject to the "Penny Stock" rules of the SEC.
Any market that develops in shares of the Company’s common stock will be subject to the penny stock regulations and restrictions, which could impair liquidity and make trading difficult. SEC Rule 15g-9, as amended, establishes the definition of a “penny stock” as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions. It is likely that the Company’s shares will be considered to be penny stock for the immediately foreseeable future. This classification severely and adversely affects the market liquidity for its common stock.
5
For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stock and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. To approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stock, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stock are suitable for that person and that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stock.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, sets forth:
· the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and
· that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offerings and in secondary trading and commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.
Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to engage in the above-referenced necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of the Company’s common stock, which may affect the ability of selling stockholders or other holders to sell their shares in any secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of the Company’s securities, if and when its securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for the Company’s securities may decrease, with a corresponding decrease in the price of the Company’s securities. The Company’s shares, in all probability, will be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future and its stockholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.
The market for penny stock has experienced numerous frauds and abuses that could adversely impact investors in the Company’s stock. OTC Bulletin Board securities are frequent targets of fraud or market manipulation, both because of their generally low prices and because OTC Bulletin Board reporting requirements are less stringent than those of the stock exchanges or NASDAQ.
Patterns of fraud and abuse include:
·
|
Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
|
·
|
Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
|
·
|
“Boiler room” practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
|
·
|
Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
|
·
|
Wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.
|
6
FINRA Sales Practice Requirements May Limit A Stockholder's Ability To Buy And Sell Our Stock.
FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our common stock. Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for penny stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholder's ability to resell shares of our common stock.
ITEM 1B Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
ITEM 2 Properties
As of February 1, 2011, our business office was located at 350 Madison Avenue, 8 th Floor, New York, NY 10017. Management believes that existing facilities are adequate to meet current requirements, and that suitable additional space will be available as needed to accommodate any further physical expansion of operations.
ITEM 3 Legal Proceedings
The Company is not party to any other legal proceeding. The Company may become a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, there were no matters that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Record Holders
As of December 31, 2013, there were approximately 45 holders of record of our common stock. The Board of Directors believe that the number of beneficial owners is greater than the number of record holders because a portion of our outstanding common stock is held of record in broker "street names" for the benefit of individual investors. The beneficial owners of such shares are not known to us.
As of December 31, 2013, the shareholders list from our transfer agent shows that there were 19,500,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Of those shares, 15,000,000 shares, or 77% percent of our outstanding common stock, were owned by our officers and directors.
Dividend Policy
We have not paid dividends on our common stock and do not plan to pay such dividends in the foreseeable future. Our Board of Directors will determine our future dividend policy on the basis of many factors, including results of operations, capital requirements, and general business conditions.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
None.
Securities Authorized For Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plan
The Company does not have any Equity Compensation Plans, nor has the Company issued any securities pursuant to any Equity Compensation Plan.

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-K, and the special note on Forward Looking Statements appearing before Item 1. Business. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and its plans of operation contain statements that are forward-looking. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions, which are subject to risk, uncertainties and other factors. Actual results may differ materially because of the factors discussed in the subsection titled “Risk Factors,” which are located in Item 1A.
Company Overview
Business Marketing Services, Inc.’s (“BMSV” or the “Company”) is a development stage company. We focus on early-stage business activities.
We believe that we can create value for businesses in the entertainment industry and value for end users by making enforcement of copyright more efficient and by lowering costs of delivery of digital content.
We are planning to obtain license agreements for digital content. We are planning partnerships to access state-of-the-art technology for storage and delivery of digital content to consumers. We are planning to make strategic acquisitions to realize our plans.
We might alter our plans if we do not succeed in raising funds to start the projects or if we do not succeed in obtaining license agreements that are essential for the business we envisage.
Recent Developments and Changes to Business Plan
On January 19, 2010, Hans Pandeya, our current CEO and director, acquired the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, from Doug Black, in accordance with a common stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) between Hans Pandeya, Doug Black and the Company. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Hans Pandeya acquired fifteen million (15,000,000) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock representing approximately 78% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, for a total purchase price of Three Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand dollars ($325,000).
On January 7, 2013, Mrs Majken Hummel-Gumaelius was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director of the Company. Mrs. Hummel-Gumaelius has not been appointed to any committees of the Board, as the Board does not presently have any committees.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operation is based upon our audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, could materially impact the condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant estimates and assumption used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board. In addition, there are other items within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not deemed critical as defined above. Changes in estimates used in these other items could have a material impact on our financial statements.

Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is presented on the face of the statements of operations. Basic loss per share is calculated as the loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Basic (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Due to the Company’s losses from continuing operations, dilutive potential common shares in the form of warrants and unvested common stock awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable, the amount to be paid for the settlement of liabilities related to cost of sales, the estimated useful lives for property and equipment, value assigned to the warrants granted in connection with the various financing arrangements and calculation for stock compensation expense. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the Statements of Operations that is used in the following discussions of our results of operations.
Revenue
The Company generated revenue of $ 59,562 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $ 317,508 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Operating Expenses
The Company operating expenses for 2013 was $45,078 as compared to $ 257,575 in 2012. Our operating decrease in revenues was due to divestment of our shares holding in Adcore ApS.
Other Expenses
The Company had other (income) expenses of $503 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $ 9,893 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Liquidity
The following table summarizes the Company’s Statement of Cash Flows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Business Marketing Services, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Business Marketing Services, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2013 and net cash used in operating activities for the reporting period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The consolidated financial statements have been presented to give retroactive effect to this discontinuance.
Note 2 - Significant and Critical Accounting Policies and Practices
The Management of the Company is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies and the appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. Critical accounting policies and practices are those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical accounting policies and practices are disclosed below as required by generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Use of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date(s) of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period(s).
F-8
Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements were:
(i)
|
Assumption as a going concern: Management assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
|
(ii)
|
Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets: Management assumes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets resulting from its net operating loss (“NOL”) carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes that may be offset against future taxable income was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are offset by a full valuation allowance. Management made this assumption based on (a) the Company has incurred recurring losses, (b) general economic conditions, and (c) its ability to raise additional funds to support its daily operations by way of a public or private offering, among other factors.
|
(iii)
|
Revenue recognition: The Company assumes all of the revenue recognition criteria are met including reasonable assurance of collectability when recognizing revenue. The Company evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to determine the collectability of revenue being recognized.
|
These significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to these estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company applies the guidance of Topic 810 “Consolidation” of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to determine whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-10 all majority-owned subsidiaries—all entities in which a parent has a controlling financial interest—shall be consolidated except (1) when control does not rest with the parent, the majority owner; (2) if the parent is a broker-dealer within the scope of Topic 940 and control is likely to be temporary; (3) consolidation by an investment company within the scope of Topic 946 of a non-investment-company investee. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-8 the usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by court decree. The Company consolidates all less-than-majority-owned subsidiaries, if any, in which the parent’s power to control exists.
The Company's consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1
|
Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
|
|
Level 2
|
Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
|
|
Level 3
|
Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
|
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
F-10
Non-controlling Interest
The Company follows paragraph 810-10-65-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report the non-controlling interest in Adcore, its majority owned subsidiary in the consolidated statements of balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, Adcore. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss) and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company derives the majority of its revenue from sales contracts with customers with revenues being generated upon the shipment of goods. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via invoice, product delivery is evidenced by warehouse shipping log as well as a signed bill of lading from trucking or rail company and title transfers when the goods arrive at their destination, based on free on board (“FOB”) destination; the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the purchase order and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or volume incentive. When the Company recognizes revenue, no provisions are made for returns because, historically, there have been very few sales returns and adjustments that have impacted the ultimate collection of revenues.
Income Tax Provision
The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 740-10-25”). Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may 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 a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in years and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its consolidated balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to its income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the reporting period ended December 31, 2013 or 2012.
F-11
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement, stock options or warrants.
There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding for the reporting period ended December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Cash Flows Reporting
The Company adopted paragraph 230-10-45-24 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period pursuant to paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date." This ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity." This ASU addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.” The amendments require an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is imminent when the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation and either (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (for example, involuntary bankruptcy). If a plan for liquidation was specified in the entity’s governing documents from the entity’s inception (for example, limited-life entities), the entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified at the entity’s inception. The amendments require financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation. The entity should include in its presentation of assets any items it had not previously recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. Entities should apply the requirements prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes imminent. Early adoption is permitted.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
F-12
Note 3 – Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2013 and net cash used in operating activities for the reporting period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is attempting to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenue; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support the Company’s daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenue and its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Receivable from the Sale of Adcore from Stockholder
On July 1, 2013, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with its former President, CEO and majority shareholder, Hans Pandeya (“Hans”) whereby BMSV sold 54,000 shares of Adcore’s common stock representing its 60% interest (the Company’s total interest) to Hans Pandeya for $16,517 net of advances from Hans (the “Purchase Price”). The remaining balance of receivable from the sale of Adcore from stockholder was $14,502, which was partially received on March 6, 2014 and fully paid on April 15, 2014.
Free Office Space
The Company has been provided office space by its Chief Executive Officer at no cost. The management determined that such cost is nominal and did not recognize the rent expense in its financial statements.

Note 6 – Income Tax Provision
United States Income Tax
BMSV is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and is subjected to United States of America income tax laws.
Deferred Tax Assets
At December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes of $171,340 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2033. No tax benefit has been reported with respect to these net operating loss carry-forwards in the accompanying consolidated financial statements because the Company believes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets of approximately $58,255 was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are fully offset by the full valuation allowance.
F-13
Deferred tax assets consist primarily of the tax effect of NOL carry-forwards. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets because of the uncertainty regarding its realization. The valuation allowance decreased approximately $(13,242) and ($12,155) for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

ITEM 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence
Director Independence
As of the date of this Report, the Company’s common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and does not have securities listed on a larger national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system. As such, there is no requirement that a majority of the members of our Board of Directors be independent. Under these standards, a director is not “independent” if he has financial transactions with the Company or any other relationships that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with his exercise of independent judgment as a Director.
