REVOLUTIONARY CONCEPTS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of March 31, 2014
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of operations - Revolutionary Concepts, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally organized in North Carolina on March 12, 2004. On February 28, 2005, the Company was reorganized and re-domiciled as a Nevada corporation. The Company is a development stage company positioned to begin launch and license of its patented technologies. The Company was incorporated as a Nevada corporation on February 28, 2005 to reincorporate and re-domesticate two existing North Carolina entities; Revolutionary Concepts, Inc. and DVMS, LLC. The Company is engaged in the development of patented entry management systems and hopes to continue to develop smart camera technologies that interface with smart devices enabling remote monitoring.
The Company’s efforts to date have been devoted to securing the intellectual framework around several key technologies and applications related to remote video monitoring, video analytics and software enabled camera. Advances in wireless technologies combined with increased data speed rates permits a very sophisticated and new means of monitoring, security and entry management.
The Company is planning to brand its smart technology “EyeTalk®”. EyeTalk® will include smart camera technology that allows interactive two-way communication between a smart phone and other handheld device. Unlike many IP cameras that simply produce and transmit an image, the EyeTalk® smart camera technology will have embedded capabilities that distinguish it as a significant technological advancement over traditional camera systems.
The Company’s joint venture agreement with IQMagine continues to advance, with the recently received patent for a child car seat with a built in monitor for gaming and two-way communication (Patent No. 8,016,676). The proof of concept and ideation of this product have been completed as well as an additional item - consisting of a plush toy capable of monitoring and two-way communication. Chris Scheppegrell, managing member of IQMagine is implementing a strategy for licensing of both products.
The Company has also completed the acquisition of Greenwood Finance Group, LLC. The Company and Rainco Industries, Inc. entered into a Member Interest Purchase Agreement, (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of December 7, 2012, in which the Company purchased from Rainco Industries, Inc. all the issued and outstanding member interests in Greenwood Finance Group, LLC. (“Greenwood”). With representatives in Atlanta and Charlotte, Greenwood is a private equity firm consisting of a team of individuals who understand the work that goes into developing businesses in their beginning stages. In addition to providing funding through their Green Path Fund, Greenwood provides consultation services to help business leaders’ map out plans and goals for continued success. Greenwood provides broad-spectrum investment and capital services to small-cap and micro-cap companies; strategically positioning them for long-term growth and profitability. Greenwood delivers, through their global network of investment partners and private equity groups, the capabilities to quickly tailor funding solutions that meet the unique needs of each client which can be tailored to a client’s capital funding needs so it can focus on growing the client’s company.
On February 10, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors agreed to an exclusive worldwide license agreement for the following patents: U.S. Patent 7,193,844; U.S. Patent 8,139,098; U.S. Patent 8,144,183; U.S. Patent 8,144,184; U.S. Patent 8,154,581; U.S. Patent 8,164,614; U.S. Patent 8,016,676 B2 to a third party. Under the terms of the agreement, the third party would bear ongoing development and operational cost to build and or secure a licensee Additionally, the licensee will bear all legal cost to prosecute and defend the patents in any infringement actions. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will receive 40% of all gross profit generated by the sale and or additional licensing of the patents. Under the terms of the agreement, we cannot disclose more details at the present time. The licensee also agreed to cancel $900,000 in notes payable plus accrued interests as part of license agreement.
The licensee has informed us that they have successfully completed their 90 day assessment of market opportunities, development of licensing programs and key market strategies. The licensee has reported that they see exceptional opportunities across several industries and will now begin monetization programs in each of these
Basis of presentation - These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future. The Company maintains its financial records on an accrual method of accounting. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon continued ability to obtain financing to repay its current obligations and fund working capital until it is able to achieve profitable operations. The Company will seek to obtain capital from equity financing through the exercise of warrants and through future common share private placements. The Company may also seek debt financing, if available. Management hopes to realize sufficient sales in future years to achieve profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital on satisfactory terms. If management is unsuccessful in obtaining financing or achieving profitable operations, the Company may be required to cease operations. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which could be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts differing from those reflected in the financial statements.
Revenue recognition – The Company will recognize sales revenue at the time of delivery when ownership has transferred to the customer, when evidence of a payment arrangement exists and the sales proceeds are determinable and collectable. Provisions will be recorded for product returns based on historical experience. To date, the Company’s revenue is primarily comprised of interest income.
Options and warrants issued – The Company allocates the proceeds received from equity financing and the attached options and warrants issued, based on their relative fair values, at the time of issuance. The amount allocated to the options and warrants is recorded as additional paid in capital.
Stock-based compensation – The Company accounts for stock-based compensation at fair value in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, which establishes accounting for stock-based payment transactions for employee services and goods and services received from non-employees. Under the provisions of ASC Topic 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense in the consolidated statements of operations pro ratably over the employee’s or non-employee’s requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the equity grant. The fair value of stock option awards is generally determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Restricted stock awards and units are valued using the market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Additionally, stock-based compensation cost is recognized based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest, therefore, the compensation cost recognized on stock-based payment transactions is reduced for estimated forfeitures based on the Company’s historical forfeiture rates. Additionally, no stock-based compensation costs were capitalized for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and for the periods from inception (March 12, 2004) to December 31, 2013, no stock options were committed to be issued to employees.
Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carry forwards that are available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes. 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 income in the period that includes the enactment date. When it is not considered to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided for the excess. Although the Company has significant loss carry forwards available to reduce future income for tax purposes, no amount has been reflected on the balance sheet for deferred income taxes as any deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance.
Reclassifications – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.
Loss per share – Basic loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions, where applicable, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While actual results could differ from those estimates, management does not expect such variances, if any, to have a material effect on the financial statements.
Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Research is planned search or critical investigation aimed at discovery of new knowledge with the hope that such knowledge will be useful in developing a new product or service or a new process or technique or in bringing about a significant improvement to an existing product or process. Development is the translation of research findings or other knowledge into a plan or design for a new product or process or for a significant improvement to an existing product or process whether intended for sale or use. It includes the conceptual formulation, design, and testing of product alternatives, construction of prototypes, and operation of pilot plants. It does not include routine or periodic alterations to existing products, production lines, manufacturing processes, and other on-going operations even though those alterations may represent improvements and it does not include market research or market testing activities. Elements of costs shall be identified with research and development activities as follows: The costs of materials and equipment or facilities that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities and that have alternative future uses shall be capitalized as tangible assets when acquired or constructed. The cost of such materials consumed in research and development activities and the depreciation of such equipment or facilities used in those activities are research and development costs. However, the costs of materials, equipment, or facilities that are acquired or constructed for a particular research and development project and that have no alternative future uses and therefore no separate economic values are research and development costs at the time the costs are incurred. Salaries, wages, and other related costs of personnel engaged in research and development activities shall be included in research and development costs. The costs of contract services performed by others in connection with the research and development activities of an enterprise, including research and development conducted by others in behalf of the enterprise, shall be included in research and development costs.
Depreciation – Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ expected useful lives. Valuation of Long-Lived Assets - The Company periodically analyzes its long-lived assets for potential impairment, assessing the appropriateness of lives and recoverability of unamortized balances through measurement of undiscounted operating cash flows on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets, Net - (Included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” previously SFAS No. 142 and ASC 985 “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed” previously SFAS No. 86)
Intangible assets are comprised of software development costs and legal fees incurred in order to obtain the patent. The software development costs are capitalized in accordance with SFAS 86. Costs of producing product masters incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility shall be capitalized. Those costs include coding and testing performed subsequent to establishing technological feasibility. Software production costs for computer software that is to be used as an integral part of a product or process shall not be capitalized until both (a) technological feasibility has been established for the software and (b) all research and development activities for the other components of the product or process have been completed. The fees incurred in order to obtain the patent are capitalized in accordance with SFAS 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This Statement applies to costs of internally developing identifiable intangible assets that an entity recognizes as assets APB Opinion 17, paragraphs 5 and 6. The Company periodically analyzes its long-lived assets for potential impairment, assessing the appropriateness of lives and recoverability of unamortized balances through measurement of undiscounted operating cash flows on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Amortization – Deferred charges are amortized using the straight-line method over six years.

NOTE 5 – COMITMENTS AND CONTENGINCIES
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 and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Recoveries from third parties, which are probable of realization are separately recorded, and are not offset against the related liability, in accordance with FASB ASC 210-10-05-3, “Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts.” The Company is the plaintiff in a lawsuit seeking damages against the law firm retained to file for “EyeTalk®” product patent.
For several years, the Company has been engaged in litigation against its former patent attorneys for malpractice arising from a missed filing deadline relating to obtaining patents for the Company’s core technologies outside the United States. After a two-year fight over jurisdiction in the case, including wins for the Company at the trial court and at the North Carolina Court of Appeals, the case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. Unfortunately, the trial court dismissed the case on a technicality, potentially ending the case. The Company's trial counsel has assured the Company that the judge's ruling is contrary to law and that good grounds exist for appeal. An appeal was filed in November 2012. The North Carolina Court of Appeals reviewed the Company’s appeal on February 12, 2013. The results of the appeal were filed on May 7, 2013. The Court of Appeals reversed the dismissal in part. The Court ruled that tort claims are not assignable in North Carolina, therefore, the plaintiff in the case will remain Ron Carter. Management believes the fact that the Company was dismissed is not really significant at all, because the claims in the suit will be maintained and the case continues to be litigated. The Court also affirmed that the uninvolved individual defendants, Clements and Bernard, are not individually liable for Dougherty's and Brockington's malpractice, which management believes is irrelevant.
The Company also sued Emmanuel Ozoeneh in federal court. Mr. Ozoeneh was a former business partner in a prior business venture with our CEO Ron Carter. Mr. Ozoeneh began making false claims that he was the inventor of the EyeTalk® system. RCI filed suit in federal court to have Mr. Carter declared the sole inventor. This case has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Company. The terms of the agreement are confidential, but the result was that Ronald Carter and the Company were declared as the sole inventor and retains all rights to the patent(s) for the EyeTalk® system. The Company is currently in default on the agreement and is working to resolve the default.
On October 5, 2010, the Company received notice that a claim for judgment had been filed in Mecklenburg County by a shareholder for the note that was in default as of May 2010. On January 7, 2011, the note holder amended the filing to include the personal loan. The amount of the claim was $100,996, plus interest at 8% and legal costs. On the 10th day of May 2011, a summary judgment was entered on behalf of the plaintiff against Mr. Carter and the Company. On the 4th day of August 2011, the Company reached an agreement with a third party to negotiate and acquire the judgment award and to agree to a convertible note from the Company for its services. The total value of the convertible note is $144,067 including interest, of which the Company has received a promissory note from Mr. Carter for $112,663 for the part of the judgment, interest and fees that was from the personal promissory note that the Company guaranteed.
On January 30, 2013, a final order was filed in the Superior Court of Mecklenburg County North Carolina against a former officer and director, Mr. Claude McDougal. The final order was for a judgment against Mr. McDougal and US Financial Consulting, LLC, by an unrelated third party. The Company received a copy of the notice and has been instructed by the court to forward any property, monies and or membership interest due to Mr. McDougal to the defendant, up to and including principal; accumulated interest; attorney’s fees and court costs of $142,150.
On September 30, 2013, the Company complied with this notice and assigned $142,150 of Mr. McDougal’s interest in a note for unpaid salary that was dated April 26, 2013 to Omnisun Azali, per the courts instructions. The original note assignment was mailed to Omnisun Azali shortly after issuance.
On February 12, 2013, the Company received notice that a petitioner had been issued a summary judgment against the Company in the amount of $6,485.96, including $1,250.00 attorney fees, plus interest.

Embedded Derivatives
Notes that are convertible at a discount to market are considered embedded derivatives. For more information on the Notes affected, refer to Management’s Discussion and analysis and the above list.
Under Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”), U.S. GAAP, Accounting Standards Codification, “Derivatives and Hedging”, ASC Topic 815 (“ASC 815”) requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
The Company issued convertible Notes and has evaluated the terms and conditions of the conversion features contained in the Notes to determine whether they represent embedded or freestanding derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC 815. The Company determined that the conversion features contained in the Notes represent freestanding derivative instruments that meet the requirements for liability classification under ASC 815. As a result, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments in the Notes is reflected in the Company’s balance sheet as a liability. The fair value of the derivative financial instruments of the convertible Notes and warrants was measured at the inception date of the Notes and warrants and each subsequent balance sheet date. Any changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date.
The Company valued the conversion features in its convertible Notes using the Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes model values the embedded derivatives based on a risk-free rate of return ranging from 0.09% to 0.14%, grant dates of Notes, the term of the Notes, conversion prices of 50% of current stock prices on the measurement date ranging from $0.00085 to $0.0019, and the computed measure of the Company’s stock volatility, ranging from 345% to 358%.
Included in the March 31, 2014, is a derivative liability in the amount of $0 to account for this transaction. This liability arose in the third quarter of 2012 and the balance will be revalued quarterly henceforth and adjusted as a gain or loss to the statements of operations depending on its value at that time.
Included in our Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is a gain of $683 and a loss of $(58,551) for the three months ended March 31, 2013 in non-cash charges pertaining to the derivative liability as it pertains to change in derivative liability and amortization of debt discount, respectively.

Our Ability To Continue as a Going Concern
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued its report dated May 1, 2014, in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013, that included an explanatory paragraph describing the existence of conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2014 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Specifically, Note 10 of our unaudited financial statement for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 addresses the issue of our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely that holders of our common stock will lose all of their investment. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company’s joint venture agreement with IQMagine continues to advance, with the recently received patent for a child car seat with a built in monitor for gaming and two-way communication (Patent No. 8,016,676). The proof of concept and ideation of this product have been completed as well as an additional item - consisting of a plush toy capable of monitoring and two-way communication. Chris Scheppegrell, managing member of IQMagine is implementing a strategy for licensing of both products.
The original RCI /IQmagine agreement has been terminated and an new agreement is being negotiated. The original agreement involved the development of the RCI Car Seat patent # 8,016,676. The new license agreement will involve the development and/or licensing of 4 (four) products;
1) | The original RCI Car Seat |
2) | A newly designed and patent pending “Smart Seat” |
3) | An interactive “Plush Toy” product |
4) | An accessory for infant carriers and strollers |
The new agreement identifies the advancements accomplished under the original agreement as well as clearly defines additional responsibilities of each partner, As a result, shareholders can expect periodic reports, updates and/or press releases to be issued by our licensee
On February 10, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors agreed to an exclusive worldwide license agreement for the following patents: U.S. Patent 7,193,844; U.S. Patent 8,139,098; U.S. Patent 8,144,183; U.S. Patent 8,144,184; U.S. Patent 8,154,581; U.S. Patent 8,164,614; U.S. Patent 8,016,676 B2 to a third party. Under the terms of the agreement, the third party would bear ongoing development and operational cost to build and or secure a licensee . Additionally, the licensee will bear all legal cost to prosecute and defend the patents in any infringement actions. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will receive 40% of all gross profit generated by the sale and or additional licensing of the patents. Under the terms of the agreement, we cannot disclose more details at the present time. The licensee also agreed to cancel $900,000 in notes payable plus accrued interests as part of license agreement.
The licensee has informed us that they have successfully completed their 90 day assessment of market opportunities, development of licensing programs and key market strategies. The licensee has reported that they see exceptional opportunities across several industries and will now begin monetization programs in each of these markets. The licensee expects nationwide licensing agreements to materialize from these efforts and has expressed a high level of enthusiasm for going forward with these opportunities.

Introduction to the EyeTalk® Communicator
The Company has invested in the IP for several commanding wireless concepts enabling remote monitoring and efficient and effective security and entry management . The brand being established for the company’s IP is “EyeTalk® “.EyeTalk® will provide users the ability to remotely and interactively monitor, manage and communicate through a smart camera designed to interface with IPhone, Androids and other smart devices.
EyeTalk® will represent a new generation of camera technology with capabilities never considered before . Embedded processors and software will give EyeTalk® a very versatile platform to operate upon unlike any camera designed to date. Smart camera technology is cutting edge and unprecedented. It possibilities are limited by imagination alone. The software platform may help assure legacy capabilities via upgrades and advancements.
EyeTalk® is being designed as primarily a smart camera technology supported by a software platform with a hardware component of an external unit deployed at a chosen location. The system’s embedded processor will facilitate communication between the camera and the person triggering its activation and/or the designated users of the system. The smart capabilities of the system will allow for a live exchange between the end users and the person that triggered the camera or the camera will independently manage an activation on its own. Interface with the EyeTalk® system is being designed to be achieved via an IPhone, Android, Personal Data Assistant (PDA), Handheld Computer (HC), Smart phone, or other compatible device.
Current solutions for home security provide very marginal results and in many cases are ineffective and present a tremendous burden to municipalities because of the extremely high rate of false alarms. The EyeTalk® system will utilize smart technology to synergistically improve communication, security, convenience, messaging, and manage deliveries and guest. As a by-product, the system will also support the need for verification of emergency situations that now cripple many municipalities across the nation burdened with the incidence of false alarms. The EyeTalk® system will provide a means of owner verification prior to the triggering of an alarm.
Advances in wireless technology make it possible now to not only view events in and around a location, but also to record and/or initiate other actions that will serve as a better solution to entry management and security. Revolutionary Concepts has invested heavily in this area over the years and the returns on the company’s investment are coming to bear. All related patents have now issued providing tremendous strength and latitude to the area of wireless monitoring.
Another major application for the EyeTalk® technology will address the growing need to monitor the elderly and aging population. Features of the EyeTalk® smart camera technology not found in basic IP cameras will allow advanced monitoring capabilities and address a significant demand on the horizon as baby boomers become seniors. Also, as a medical application, the EyeTalk® technology could provide remote monitoring of patients and family members. The system is planned to incorporate fall prevention technology and offer a remote fall detection technology.
Additionally, the ability to monitor loved ones who may be many miles away will be another feature of the EyeTalk® system.
Additional patents are pending that offer very relevant and effective solutions for entry management in schools, universities, institutions, government buildings and other facilities requiring entry screening.
EyeTalk® is a brand that will establish itself as an industry leader as Revolutionary Concepts integrates its unique portfolio of technical solutions into the market place. The seeds that were planted over the years are coming to harvest and the alignment with wireless advances is almost perfect.
Preemption, Prevention and Protection –
Why EyeTalk®? EyeTalk® is a disruptive technology that will, we contend, create a shift in the way security and entry management is conducted. EyeTalk® could have the ability to cause an impact in a mega industry. EyeTalk®, we believe, will offer capabilities like never before, and it will be efficient, effective and appropriate. Unlike systems in the market place that are responsive and reactive such as alarms that sound when there is a break-in or systems that monitor your home from the inside, EyeTalk® is being designed for the outside to be preemptive, preventative and protective, by providing detailed information to the owner the moment someone is on a property. A better solution is one that begins before a break in or an invasion. The ability to address a situation before it takes place is a much better solution. The ability to engage a person, to alert a person that their presence is acknowledged, and to verify a potential emergency before an event occurs is within EyeTalk®s capabilities. The EyeTalk® systems are being designed to be triggered and activated by an array of inputs such as motion, biometric sensors, metal detection underground fiber optic sensors, etc. When the system is activated by a trigger, it will be programmed to provide standard greetings, directives, commands, etc. The EyeTalk® could then notify designated personnel of the triggering event, sending images of the current situation and permitting audible responses and real time monitoring
The smart camera features planned could enable the system to talk independently and future generations of the technology could be equipped with voice recognition, a feature some would call artificial intelligence; we would like to refer to it as real intelligence.
Another key feature of the technology is that it will serve as a crime deterrent via the video evidence EyeTalk® would produce. The value of video in legal proceedings will help support prosecutions and crime reduction.
EyeTalk® is conceived as a very versatile technology and its offerings will be very broad and comprehensive as an entry management device. From monitoring children arriving home safely from school, to verifying and receiving deliveries, to responding to service appointments, etc. the EyeTalk® technology represents a leap forward in the way we manage a variety of day to day activities.
The Company management expects to compete by emphasizing the unique aspects of the EyeTalk® technology in marketing directly to distributors and end users. The Company also intends to compete by direct contact with larger end users such as hospitals, banks, and government agencies concerned with homeland security and plans to fully explore all licensing opportunities that may arise.
As with many development stage companies, we are currently considered to be in unsound financial condition. Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Persons should not invest unless they can afford to lose their entire investments. We currently have a negative net worth, extremely limited cash although we did post a gain of $790,722 at March 31, 2014. We had accumulated deficits to our stockholder’s equity of $(13,102,866) as of March 31, 2014. Further, we may incur significant losses through 2014 and beyond, as it further develops and attempts to commercialize the remote network camera video system.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had 647,796,993 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.

Corporate Information and History
The Company was founded in 2004 as Revolutionary Concepts, Inc., a North Carolina corporation and its subsidiary, D.V. M. S., LLC for the purpose of developing a network camera video device. The Company reincorporated in Nevada in February 2005 as Revolutionary Concepts, Inc. to re-domicile the North Carolina corporation to a Nevada corporation by the same name.
Our principal executive offices are located at 1914 JN Pease Place, Charlotte, NC 28262. The Company’s telephone number is 980-225-5376. The President of the Company is Ronald Carter. The Company maintains a corporate website at www.revolutionaryconceptsinc.com. The contents of our website are not part of this annual report and should not be relied upon with respect to the annual report or incorporated by reference.
To date, our efforts have been largely devoted to developing the Company’s corporate structure, supporting investor relations and seeking patent protection around verticals of the core system. The Company is currently focused on the development stage now that the supporting technologies for the EyeTalk® system have emerged. Through its licensing agreement, the company is actively involved in infringement review and identifying possible licensing opportunities. Product development remains a key goal of the company as well; however, it may or may not be as practical as once considered.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2014 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2013
Revenues. The Company has generated limited revenue since its inception, due to it being a development stage company, and in its efforts in developing its patented technologies for sale or licensing. With the recent signing of a global licensing Agreement to commercialize REVO’s patented wireless security alarm services system, we received an up-front fee of $900,000 in consideration.
Operating Expenses We have had limited revenue since inception. Our total operating expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 increased to $172,835 from $149,858 over the prior year period. This increase is primarily attributable to increases in marketing expenses, and professional fees.
Net Loss. Our net gain for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 was $774,106 compared to a net loss of $(237,757) over the prior year period. This gain is primarily attributable to decreases in loss on derivatives and interest expense and the consideration received as part of the license agreement with the licensee , offset by increases in operating expenses.
Assets. Assets decreased by $6,873 to $141,210 as of March 31, 2014, from $148,083 as of December 31, 2013 . This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in security depositpatent cosdts and prepaid expenses off set by an increase in depreciation and amortization.
Liabilities. Total liabilities decreased by $382,482 to $4,329,517 as of March 31 2013, from $4,711,999 as of December 31, 2013. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in current liabilities primarily related to our notes that were canceled as part of the license agreement with the licensee, offset by an increase in other accrued expenses.
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit). Stockholders' deficit decreased by $375,589 to $(4,188,327) as of March 31, 2014 from $(4,563,916) as of December 31, 2013. The first quarter decrease was due primarily to the net gain of $774,106 offset by an increase in dividends accumulated.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. Our primary sources of cash have been sales of common stock through private placements and loans from affiliates. We are a developmental stage company moving from Research and Development (“R & D”)to the initial stages of development. The transition from R & D to development and production requires a greater focus on operations, product infrastructure, distribution and channel partners and industry alliances. Over the next 6 - 12 months, we will be looking for the ideal acquisitions that will enable our company to take advantage of an existing customer base. Our management will also pursue appropriate Letter of Intents and Joint Ventures that will position our company to move its products into these ventures when successful production is completed.
Prior relationships with companies discussed in previous filings have been terminated. We are not involved with any of those companies that were very instrumental during the Research and Development stages, but are no longer engaged. We have engaged SIS Development as consulting technical officials for product development. SIS Development will assist RCI in identifying the necessary contracts and relationships moving forward. Additionally, industry expertise and consultation is being provided by advisors in the industry.
Overall, we had no change in cash for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same prior year period.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities of $(45,736) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 is attributable to net operating gain of $774,106 and increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $523,894, accounts payable and accrued expense of $64,334, offset by an increases in accumulated dividend adjustment of $(450,000) reduction of notes and interest payable of $(992,124) included as consideration for the worldwide exclusive license agreement
Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 was $(607).
Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities of $46,342 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 is attributable to the increase in unpaid capital contributions of $805 and a decrease in notes payable and debt of $47,147.

Our Company’s Capital Structure
In its efforts to grow and expand our company, management must obtain the necessary capital to achieve those objectives, decide on the best methods to obtain that capital, and retain the capital structure of our company. The primary ways a company will raise capital is either through debt financing (borrowing money), or equity financing (selling a portion of the company via shares of stock) or a combination of both. The type of capital chosen (debt or equity), and methods of raising the capital depend on a number of factors including; the company’s life cycle stage, e.g., start-up, development, high-growth or maturity, future growth prospects, strength of the national economy and the credit markets.
Potential investors in any company, including ours, will consider those factors and the relative risks to their investment capital. To limit their risks, these investors may limit the size of their investment, or provide it to the company in stages, that is contingent upon the company reaching stated goals e.g., production, marketing, distribution and revenues. The ultimate question for management is; how do you get the investors to commit to making what could be a high risk investment for them, although one that would correspondingly benefit the company, however one that the investor could lose if the company were to fail. Management considered both the equity and the debt financing options based on our life cycle stage, economy, credit markets and other circumstances at the time, and reached the following conclusions;
Equity Financing - Management decided not to raise additional capital through an equity offering in its initial start-up and development stage for a variety of reasons;
(1) The Company would have had to go through the process of filing a registration statement e.g. S-1 with the SEC, which would have required expenditures and resources with no assurances of receiving expeditious approval and would have been very time consuming, given our situation at that time.
(2) The direct and indirect flotation costs of the issuance of an equity capital raise could have run $250,000 or more, and the Company did not have those funds available.
(3) It would have been very difficult to get an investment banker to underwrite a new issuance for a development stage company with a limited operating history and revenues.
(4) Many investors did not want to take an equity position in the Company at that time and the corresponding risks of ownership.
(5) The issuance of equity to these investors, after resolving the potential regulatory challenges, legal issues, time constraints, and costs would have resulted in immediate dilution for the other shareholders, giving them only limited hopes that value would be created.
Therefore, due to the above stated reasons, the economic climate and the Company’s circumstances at that time, management elected not to pursue raising capital through an equity offering at that time.
Debt Financing – Management elected to raise capital for the Company through debt financing for the following reasons;
(1) Due to the Companies need for further development of our patents, it had immediate and continuous need for capital.
(2) The investors were more willing to invest funds more expeditiously, and take a creditor’s position instead of that as an owner by taking an equity position.
(3) With those immediately available funds, management could continue to develop our technology and create short-term economic value to the Company by contracting with various vendors for work, prior to any equity dilution taking place.
(4) The investors were issued Promissory Notes that were unsecured without any collateral (taking a high risk), except as called for in the agreements.
(5) The Notes required no monthly payments which allowed us to use that free cash flow for operating expenses, reduced our cash outlays, interest payments and improve our budget, plans and forecast our cash flow.
(6) The investors received the potential upside of conversion of the Notes into equity while protecting our downside with the use of the cash flow.
(7) Should the investors decide to convert the Notes into common stock, then the Company’s debt would be eliminated from its balance sheet.
(8) The tax benefits of debt financing is that it’s less expensive, while the Company is taxed on earnings, it is not generally taxed on borrowed money and the interest on the Notes is tax deductible.
(9) Since the investors do not have any equity interests, it has no voting rights or other control over the management of the Company, its operations and no claim to its future earnings.
(10) If the Company ever suffers a negative financial situation, it is much easier to re-negotiate the terms of the Notes with the individual investors than with a bank, or a group of investors through an equity or bond offering.
Based on the reasons above, and since we required immediate capital to rapidly expand, grow, restructure its operations, continue development, finance potential acquisitions, and execute its marketing plans; raising capital through debt financing, we believed, was our best alternative. This strategy resulted in our expanding our technology patents; thereby, increasing our potential assets, market capitalization value and our shareholders owning a portion of a much larger and more valuable company. As we continue to advance and develop through the different stages of our business life cycle, management will evaluate options, alternatives, and make strategic decisions for the best investment opportunities, financing and capital structure at that time.
Debt
In its efforts to expand and grow, we issued debt instruments to borrow funds from various creditors to raise capital. These are long-term Notes with various rates and maturities, that grants the Note Holder the right, (but not the obligation), to convert them into shares of our common stock in lieu of receiving payment in cash. The issued Notes are secured obligations. The principal amount of the Notes may be prepaid upon agreement of both parties and a prepayment penalty, in whole or part at any time, together with all accrued interest upon written notice.
Our management believes that there are a number of benefits when issuing debt versus issuing equity capital. The interest paid on debt capital is tax exempt; hence, our loan costs are lowered. Outside of their contractual debt documents, creditors have no control in the conduct of the business, so by issuing debt capital, we do not dilute the ownership rights of our shareholders (unless and until any debt is converted into equity). Also, as the interest rates are predetermined, the management is able to budget for the payments. Generally, debt is less costly and the time involved to be able to raise the capital is shortened. In many cases, raising capital through equity requires regulatory approval, which can take months and is dilutive to all shareholders.
2013
From January 7 through January 9, 2013, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on June 19, 2012. A total of $16,500 and accumulated interest of $1,100 was converted and 19,130,435 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $0. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $16,500.
On January 17, 2013, we entered into a nine (9) month convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $42,500 at 8% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at 50% of the then current market prices.
On February 28, 2013, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $12,898 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.003 per share.
On March 30, 2013 we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $3,410 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
(18) |
2014
From January 7 and January 8, 2014, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on June 4, 2013. A total of $13,600 and accumulated interest of $1,500 was converted and 17,786,227 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $0. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $13,600.
On January 24, 2014, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on April 26, 2013. A total of $20,000 was converted and 25,000,000 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $110,020. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $20,000.
On January 31, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $13,798 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
On February 28, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $29,777 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
On March 31, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $3,922 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
The investors and private equity firms are very astute and have many years of experience and expertise in making successful investments in many companies. They have been investing with our company for several years, and have provided us with critical short and long-term funds that we have used for operations, working capital, and investment capital for our business acquisitions to expand and grow our Company. They have the option to convert their Notes into stock after a six month holding period in accordance with exemptions provided pursuant to the federal and state securities rules and regulations. . However, most have elected to hold their Notes for 1 to 3 years and therefore have taken a long-term investment strategy in our company. Without their continuous long-term commitment to investment in our company, it is unlikely that the growth and expansion that we have achieved would have been possible.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or the consolidated results of our operations.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment”. The guidance allows companies to perform a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether further impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary, similar in approach to the goodwill impairment test.
ASU 2012-02 allows companies the option to first assess qualitatively whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, before determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Companies can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on none, some, or all of its indefinite-lived intangible assets or choose to only perform the quantitative impairment test for any indefinite-lived intangible in any period.
ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance and the impact ASU 2012-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, “Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114. , Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update)” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-03. This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-04. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification.
These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
To the best of our knowledge, during the past five years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director or executive officer of our Company: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of any competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities, except as noted below; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the commodities futures trading commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
For several years, RCI has been engaged in litigation against its former patent attorneys for malpractice arising from a missed filing deadline relating to obtaining patents for RCI's core technologies outside the United States. After a two-year fight over jurisdiction in the case, including wins for RCI at the trial court and at the North Carolina Court of Appeals, the case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. Unfortunately, the trial court dismissed the case on a technicality, potentially ending the case. An appeal was filed in November 2012. The North Carolina Court of Appeals reviewed the Company’s appeal on February 12, 2013. The results of the appeal were filed on May 7, 2013. The Court of Appeals reversed the dismissal in part. The Court ruled that tort claims are not assignable in North Carolina, therefore, the plaintiff in the case will remain Ron Carter. The Company is reviewing any possible remaining claims it may have for legal negligence. Management believes that the fact that the Company was dismissed is not really significant at all, because the claims in the suit will be maintained and the case continues to be litigated through Mr. Carter’s personal claim for damages, as the original patent applicant. The Court also affirmed that the uninvolved individual defendants, Clements and Bernard, are not individually liable for Dougherty's and Brockington's malpractice which management believes is irrelevant. This case involves the international patents and not the United States patents that have been awarded.
The Company also sued Emmanuel Ozoeneh in federal court. Mr. Ozoeneh was a former business partner in a prior business venture with our CEO Ron Carter. Mr. Ozoeneh began making false claims that he was the inventor of the EyeTalk® system. RCI filed suit in federal court to have Mr. Carter declared the sole inventor. This case has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Company. The terms of the agreement are confidential, but the result was that Ronald Carter and the Company were declared as the sole inventor and retains all rights to the patent(s) for the EyeTalk® system. The Company is currently in default on the agreement and is working to resolve the default.
In July and August 2009, the Company issued two notes payable in the total amount of $20,000. The two notes were later combined at the note holder’s request into one note. The note bears interest at a rate of 10%. Principal and interest were due in May 2010. In 2009, the Board of Directors agreed to guarantee a personal loan to the President of the Company, Mr. Ron Carter of $75,000 with interest of 10%, by a shareholder. The note became due in November 2010. On October 5, 2010, the Company received notice that a claim for judgment had been filed in Mecklenburg County by a shareholder for the note that was in default as of May 2010. On January 7, 2011, the note holder amended the filing to include the personal loan. The amount of the claim was $100,996, plus interest at 8% and legal costs. On the 10th day of May 2011, a summary judgment was entered on behalf of the plaintiff against Mr. Carter and the Company. On the 4th day of August 2011, the Company reached an agreement with a third party to negotiate and acquire the judgment award and to agree to a convertible note from the Company for its services. The total value of the convertible note is $144,067 including interest, of which the Company has received a promissory note from Mr. Carter for $112,663for the part of the judgment, interest and fees that was from the personal promissory note that the Company guaranteed.
On February 5, 2013, the Company received notification regarding an order signed by a Superior Court Judge and filed with the Clerk of Court in a civil action against Claude McDougal ( a former officer and Director of the Company) by Omnisun Azali (12-CVS-6243). The order places Revolutionary Concepts on notice that;

Inc., be charged with payment of the judgment and that Revolutionary Concepts, Inc., assign and deliver to the judgment creditor any distributions of money owed or allocations or earned salary that this judgment debtor is entitled to, not inconsistent with law and, at the time monies are delivered to the judgment creditor, the monies be applied towards the satisfaction of the judgment.
On September 30, 2013, the Company complied with this notice and assigned $142,150 of Mr. McDougal’s interest in a note for unpaid salary that was dated April 26, 2013 to Omnisun Azali, per the courts instructions. The original note assignment was mailed to Omnisun Azali shortly after issuance.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the following risk factors together with the other information contained in this Interim Report on Form 10-Q, and in prior reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. If any of the risks factors actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously discussed in Item 1A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, (SEC File Number 000-53674) on the website at www.sec.gov, including but not limited, to the following:
The market price of our common stock may limit its eligibility for clearing house deposit.
We are advised that if the market price for shares of our common stock is less than $0.10 per share, Depository Trust Company and other securities clearing firms may decline to accept our shares for deposit and refuse to clear trades, in our securities. This would materially and adversely affect the marketability and liquidity of our shares and, accordingly may materially and adversely affect the value of an investment in our common stock.
We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 or JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. An “emerging growth company” can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.
We will incur increased costs and demands upon management as a result of complying with the laws and regulations that affect public companies, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.
As a public company and particularly after we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company, including costs associated with public company reporting and corporate governance requirements. These requirements include compliance with Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules implemented by the SEC.
The increased costs associated with operating as a public company will decrease our net income or increase our net loss, and may require us to reduce costs in other areas of our business. Additionally, if these requirements divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.
However, for as long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”
If the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30, we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” as of the following June 30, or if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three-year period, we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” immediately.

2013
From January 7 through January 9, 2013, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on June 19, 2012. A total of $16,500 and accumulated interest of $1,100 was converted and 19,130,435 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $0. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $16,500.

2014
From January 7 and January 8, 2014, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on June 4, 2013. A total of $13,600 and accumulated interest of $1,500 was converted and 17,786,227 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $0. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $13,600.
On January 24, 2014, we received notices of partial conversion from an unrelated third party as part of a note originally issued on April 26, 2013. A total of $20,000 was converted and 25,000,000 restricted common shares were issued, which leaves a remaining principal balance of $110,020. This conversion of debt reduced our notes payables $20,000.
On January 31, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $13,798 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
On February 28, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $29,777 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
On March 31, 2014, we entered into a three (3) year convertible Promissory Note with a non-related creditor for $3,922 at 12% interest. The holder has the right to convert the note to common stock at $0.002 per share.
The investors and private equity firms are very astute and have many years of experience and expertise in making successful investments in many companies. They have been investing with our company for several years, and have provided us with critical short and long-term funds that we have used for operations, working capital, and investment capital for our business acquisitions to expand and grow our Company. They have the option to convert their Notes into stock after a six month holding period in accordance with exemptions provided pursuant to the federal and state securities rules and regulations. . However, most have elected to hold their Notes for 1 to 3 years and therefore have taken a long-term investment strategy in our company. Without their continuous long-term commitment to investment in our company, it is unlikely that the growth and expansion that we have achieved would have been possible.
