As of March 31, 2014 and 2013
NOTE 1
|
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of Royal Bees Company, Inc. (the “Company”) contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2014, the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures contained in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented therein not misleading. For further information, refer to the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report included with Form S-1 and amendments for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
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, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Nature of the business – The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 16, 2010. The Company’s primary business is harvesting honey from their beehives as well as renting out their bees to pollinate fields for farmers and other agricultural ventures.
Pervasiveness of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents – For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers all short term investments with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories – The Company inventories are comprised of honey (raw goods), containers and labels in which to package the honey for sale, and finished goods ready for sale. The Company accounts for its inventory by applying the lower of cost or market method, on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

|
|
Hive equipment

|
Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized and amortized over 3-5 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs of the assets are charged to expense as incurred.
Loan Fees – Loan fees are stated at cost. Amortization on loan fees is calculated using the straight-line method over the term of the loans.
Revenue Recognition – Wholesale revenues are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. This occurs upon shipment or upon receipt by the customer depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. Provisions for sales discounts, returns and miscellaneous claims from customers are made at the time of sale.

Footnotes to Financial Statements
As of March 31, 2014 and 2013
Income Tax – The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "Income Taxes" which codified SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share – The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share" which codified SFAS No. 128. "Earnings per Share." ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per Share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – Accounting Standard Codification ASC 825 "Financial Instruments" codified Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities, which represent financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, approximate are carrying values of such amounts.
Stock-based compensation ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" codified SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans payments award to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees" which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
Issuance of shares for service – The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Recent Pronouncements
The following accounting pronouncements if implemented would have no effect on the financial statements of the Company.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 2
|
UNCERTAINTY OF ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN
|
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements as of March 31, 2014, the company has net accumulated losses since inception of $183,603 and a negative working capital deficiency of $29,196. These factors raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the company’s ability to raise additional funds through the sale of stock and / or debt and by implementing its business plan, which calls for increasing sales through marketing its existing services to surrounding businesses in the San Diego area and current industry connections. As sales increase, the Company intends to broaden its target markets. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 - INVENTORY
The Company inventories are comprised of honey (raw goods), stored in 60- and 24-gallon buckets, containers and labels in which to package the honey for sale, and finished goods ready for sale. The Company accounts for its container inventory by applying the lower of cost or market method, on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. The Company accounts for its raw honey by calculating a cost per pound based on the care and feeding of the bees in the off-season. The cost of producing the honey is recalculated each year. The cost of finished goods inventory is the cost of the honey (raw goods), container and label (if any) which comprise the finished product.
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had inventory of $878 and $878, respectively, comprised of the following:

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
No provision was made for income tax for the period ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company, from the date of inception, has incurred net operating losses for tax purposes of approximately $183,603. The net operating loss carry-forward may be used to reduce taxable income through the year 2026. The availability of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards is subject to limitation if there is a 50% or more change in the ownership of the Company's stock.
There was no significant difference between reportable income tax and statutory income tax. A 100% valuation allowance has been established against the deferred tax asset, as the utilization of the loss carry-forwards cannot reasonably be assured. A reconciliation between the income taxes computed in the United States is as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PLAN OF OPERATION
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT NOTICE
This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate” or “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industries in which we may participate; competition within our chosen industry, including competition from much larger competitors; technological advances and failure to successfully develop business relationships.
Description of Business.
We were originally incorporated on June 16, 2010 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Since inception, we have engaged in pollination services and selling honey products. We have office space at 123 W. Nye Lane, Suite 129, Carson City, NV 89706. Royal Bees currently only requires minimal office space.
We are in the business of providing bee pollination services and harvesting, developing, producing and selling various honey and bee products both wholesale and retail. Our current market it limited to the San Diego and Bakersfield, California area. We intend to eventually expand our market area as our operations increase.
Our bee yards or apiaries are located in San Marcos, Escondido and Valley Center, California. Our website is www.royalbees.com.
In addition to bee pollination services we offer a range of products including bottled honey, wax, pollen, royal jelly, nucs and bee queens.
We currently maintain approximately 190 hives which is up from the 65 hives we had at March 31, 2013. Through strenuous effort, cautious use of antibiotic and other bee medicines and careful repopulating hives, we were able to significantly increase our bee population.
We rent our hives to local farmers for pollinating their crops. We lease the hives for $120 per month and our hives are typically leased out for 1 month of the year. Hive production varies, but a healthy bee colony in California can produce around 150 - 180 pounds of honey each year. Honey is produced and sold on a retail level, through farmers’ markets, local grocers, and health food stores and to wholesale clients such as breweries. Asking prices can vary widely, but $5-12 per pound is typical for bottled honey and around $2.50 per pound ($6 per quart) for bulk honey. Additional honey products include flavored honey, whipped honey, honey butter, honey flavored candies.
We currently make sales online through our website, www.royalbees.com. We also sell our products to a cosmetic company, Golden State Natural Products, Inc. Other distribution channels for our products include retail stores, local organic food companies and delivery companies including Naturally to Your Door, Inc., www.naturallytoyourdoor.com, and Organic to You, www.organictoyou.org.

Competition
The market for honey and bee products is highly competitive. Additionally, since more and more attention is being brought to the subject of healthy eating, consumption and application of organic products, there have been an increasing number of new entrants, honey suppliers and honey packers penetrating the local market.
There is a fierce competition in the pollination industry. Almond pollination season attracts beekeepers from the entire United States and Australia. According to the Almond Board of California, about 4,000 commercial beekeepers are bringing their hives for pollination each year.
Some of our competitors include San Luis Rey Apiary, Chaparral Honey, R&E Beekeeping, Julian Honey Company, Cary’s Honey Farms and others. Many of our competitors sell all or most of their honey wholesale to one or more honey packers or cosmetics companies.
Many of these businesses have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and managerial resources than we do. We expect that we will continue to face additional competition from new entrants into the market in the future.
Employees
At the present time we have no employees. Vladimir Lyashevskiy is our sole officer and director and a major shareholder. Mr. Lyashevskiy will devote such time as required to actively seek a business opportunity for the Company.
