PROSPECTUS
THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS MAY BE CHANGED. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE
SOLD UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION IS EFFECTIVE. THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT AN OFFER TO SELL THESE
SECURITIES AND IT IS NOT SOLICITING AN OFFER TO BUY THESE SECURITIES IN ANY
STATE WHERE THE OFFER OR SALE IS NOT PERMITTED. THERE IS NO MINIMUM PURCHASE
REQUIREMENT FOR THE OFFERING TO PROCEED.
ARTEX CORP.
10,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
$0.01 PER SHARE
This is the initial offering of common stock of Artex Corp. and no public market
currently exists for the securities being offered. We are offering for sale a
total of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at a fixed price of $ 0.01 per share.
The net proceeds that we may receive from this offering assuming the sale of 25%
of shares is $25,000, 50% of shares is $50,000, 75% of shares is $75,000, and
100% of shares is $100,000. There is no minimum number of shares that must be
sold by us for the offering to proceed, and we will retain the proceeds from the
sale of any of the offered shares. The amount raised may be minimal and there is
no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient amount to cover our
expenses and may not even cover the costs of the offering.
The offering is being conducted on a self-underwritten, best efforts basis,
which means our President, Jacek Niezgoda, will attempt to sell the shares. This
Prospectus will permit our President to sell the shares directly to the public,
with no commission or other remuneration payable to him for any shares he may
sell. The shares are being offered at a fixed price of $0.01 per share for a
period of one year from the effective date of this prospectus. The offering
shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the date when the sale of all 10,000,000
shares is completed, (ii) when the Board of Directors decides that it is in the
best interest of the Company to terminate the offering prior the completion of
the sale of all 10,000,000 shares registered under the Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus is part or (iii) one year after the effective date of this
prospectus. The offering will not be extended beyond one year.
We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business
Startups Act ("JOBS Act"). Investing in our ordinary shares involves a high
degree of risk. Before buying any shares, you should carefully read the
discussion of material risks of investing in our ordinary shares in "Risk
Factors" beginning on page 6 of this prospectus.
Artex Corp. is a development stage company and currently has no operations. Any
investment in the shares offered herein involves a high degree of risk. You
should only purchase shares if you can afford a loss of your investment. Our
independent registered public accountant has issued an audit opinion for Artex
Corp. which includes a statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability
to continue as a going concern.
We are a development stage company with nominal operations and assets. As a
result, we are considered a shell company under Rule 405 of the Securities Act
and are subject to additional regulatory requirements as a result of this
status, including limitations on our shareholders' ability to re-sell their
shares in our company, as well as additional disclosure requirements.
Accordingly, investors should consider our shares to be a high-risk and illiquid
investment. See "Risk Factors" for the risks of investing in a shell company,
see "RISK FACTORS" FOR A DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION THAT SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED IN CONNECTION WITH AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY
(on page 6 of this prospectus).
There has been no market for our securities and a public market may never
develop, or, if any market does develop, it may not be sustained. Our common
stock is not traded on any exchange or on the over-the-counter market. After the
effective date of the registration statement relating to this prospectus, we
hope to have a market maker file an application with the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") for our common stock to be eligible for trading
on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. We do not yet have a market maker who
has agreed to file such application. There can be no assurance that our common
stock will ever be quoted on a stock exchange or a quotation service or that any
market for our stock will develop.
Any funds received as a part of this offering will be immediately deposited into
the company's bank account and be available for our use. We have not made any
arrangements to place funds in an escrow, trust or similar account for general
business purposes as well as to continue our business and operations. If we fail
to raise enough capital to commence operations investors may lose their entire
investment and will not be entitled to a refund.
NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED
OF THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS.
ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
AS USED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, UNLESS THE CONTEXT OTHERWISE REQUIRES, "WE," "US,"
"OUR," AND "ARTEX CORP." REFERS TO ARTEX CORP. THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY PROVIDES A
BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE KEY ASPECTS OF THE OFFERING. YOU SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE
PROSPECTUS BEFORE MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION TO PURCHASE OUR COMMON STOCK.
ARTEX CORP.
We are a development stage company and we are in pursuit of business of selling
popcorn from mobile popcorn carts in Poland. We have already purchased our first
Popcorn machine/cart on February 17, 2014. We plan to place our popcorn carts in
Poland major cities such as Warsaw, Krakow and Lodz. On March 02, 2014 in Warsaw
we have signed lease agreement (Exhibit 10.1) with Leszek Piekut on placing one
Popcorn cart at his location in Warsaw.
The locations that we think will be most suitable for our product are shopping
malls, schools, colleges, universities, streets, flea markets, expo shows,
ferries, sport games and concerts. We have purchased one popcorn machine with
cart but have not made the placement. As a result, we do not have any
operational revenues.
Being a development stage company, we have no revenues and have limited
operating history. Artex Corp. was incorporated in Nevada on October 24, 2013.
To date we have prepared a business plan, signed lease agreement (Exhibit 10.1)
and purchased one 12 oz popcorn machine with cart. Our principal executive
office is located at Ciechocin 28, Ciechocin, 87-100 Poland. Our phone number is
+ 1 925 399 8016. We do not have a website.
We require a minimum funding of $25,000 to conduct our 12 months plan of
operation, and if we are unable to obtain this level of financing, our business
may fail.
We are a company without revenues and have just recently started our operations;
we have minimal assets and have incurred losses since inception. Our financial
statements for the period from October 24, 2013 (date of inception) to May 31,
2014, report no revenues and a net loss of $5,704. As of May 31, 2014 we had $
4,157 in cash on hand. As of the date of this prospectus we had $ 2,640.12 in
cash on hand. Our independent registered public accountant has issued an audit
opinion for Artex Corp. which includes a statement expressing substantial doubt
as to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to obtain
additional working capital our business may fail. To date, the only operations
we have engaged in are the development of a business plan and the purchase of a
popcorn machine. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to develop
our business operations (See "Description of Business" and "Use of Proceeds").
Being a development stage company, we have very limited operating history.
Proceeds from this offering are required for us to proceed with our business
plan over the next twelve months. We require minimum funding of $25,000 to
conduct our proposed operations and pay all expenses for a minimum period of one
year including expenses associated with maintaining a reporting status with the
SEC. If we are unable to obtain minimum funding of $25,000, our business may
fail. Even if we raise $100,000 from this offering or more, we may need more
funds to develop growth strategy and to continue maintaining a reporting status.
3
As of the date of this prospectus, there is no public trading market for our
common stock and no assurance that a trading market for our securities will ever
develop.
Our president devotes approximately 20 hours/week to the business and he has no
prior experience managing a public company.
If necessary, Jacek Niezgoda, our president, has verbally agreed to lend funds
to pay for the registration process and lend funds to implement your business
plan and to help maintain a reporting status with the SEC in the form of a
non-secured loan for the next twelve months. The loan is unsecured, non-interest
bearing and due on demand. However, the verbal agreement is not binding and that
there is no guarantee that we will receive such loans.
There has been no market for our securities and a public market may never
develop, or, if any market does develop, it may not be sustained. Our common
stock is not traded on any exchange or on the over-the-counter market. After the
effective date of the registration statement relating to this prospectus, we
hope to have a market maker file an application with the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") for our common stock to be eligible for trading
on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. We do not yet have a market maker who
has agreed to file such application. There can be no assurance that our common
stock will ever be quoted on a stock exchange or a quotation service or that any
market for our stock will develop.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this
prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks
occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock, when and if we trade at
a later date, could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or
part of your investment.
RISKS ASSOCIATED TO OUR BUSINESS
BECAUSE WE ARE CONSIDERED TO BE A "SHELL COMPANY" UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES
RULES, INVESTORS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RELY ON THE RESALE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY
RULE 144 OF THE SECURITIES ACT. AS A RESULT, INVESTORS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO
RE-SELL OUR SHARES AND COULD LOSE THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
We are considered to be a "shell company" under Rule 405 of Regulation C of the
Securities Act. A "shell company" is a company with either no or nominal
operations or assets, or assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents.
As a result, our investors are not allowed to rely on Rule 144 of the Securities
Act for a period of one year from the date that we cease to be a shell company.
Because investors may not be able to rely on an exemption for the resale of
their shares other than Rule 144, and there is no guarantee that we will cease
to be a shell company, they may not be able to re-sell our shares in the future
and could lose their entire investment as a result.
BECAUSE WE ARE CONSIDERED TO BE A "SHELL COMPANY" UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES
RULES, WE ARE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS IF WE ACQUIRE OR
DISPOSE OF SIGNIFICANT ASSETS IN THE COURSE OF OUR BUSINESS. WE WILL INCUR
ADDITIONAL COSTS IN MEETING THESE REQUIREMENTS, WHICH WILL ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND, THEREFORE, THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT.
Because we are considered to be a "shell company" under Rule 405 of Regulation C
of the Securities Act, we are subject to additional disclosure requirements if
we entered into a transaction which results in a significant acquisition or
disposition of assets. In such a situation, we must provide prospectus-level,
detailed disclosure regarding the transaction, as well as detailed financial
information. In order to comply with these requirements, we will incur
additional legal and accounting costs, which will adversely impact our results
of operations. As a result, the value of an investment in our shares may decline
as a result of these additional costs.
RULE 144 SAFE HARBOR IS UNAVAILABLE FOR THE RESALE OF SHARES ISSUED BY US UNLESS
AND UNTIL WE CEASE TO BE A SHELL COMPANY AND HAVE SATISFIED THE REQUIREMENTS OF
RULE 144(I)(1)(2)
We are a "shell company" as defined by Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange
Act. Accordingly, the securities in this offering can only be resold through
registration under the Securities Act, meeting the safe harbor provisions of
paragraph (i) of Rule 144, or in reliance upon Section 4(1) of the Securities
Act of 1933 for non-affiliates.
RULE 144 SAFE HARBOR IS UNAVAILABLE FOR THE RESALE OF SHARES ISSUED BY US UNLESS
AND UNTIL WE HAVE CEASED TO BE A SHELL COMPANY AND HAVE SATISFIED THE
REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144(I)(1)(2).
6
The SEC has adopted final rules amending Rule 144 which became effective on
February 15, 2008. Pursuant to Rule 144, one year must elapse from the time a
"shell company", as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of
the Exchange Act, ceases to be a "shell company" and files Form 10 information
with the SEC, during which time the issuer must remain current in its filing
obligations, before a restricted shareholder can resell their holdings in
reliance on Rule 144.
The term "Form 10 information" means the information that is required by SEC
Form 10, to register under the Exchange Act each class of securities being sold
under Rule 144. The Form 10 information is deemed filed when the initial filing
is made with the SEC. Under Rule 144, restricted or unrestricted securities,
that were initially issued by a reporting or non-reporting shell company or a
company that was at anytime previously a reporting or non-reporting shell
company, can only be resold in reliance on Rule 144 if the following conditions
are met: (1) the issuer of the securities that was formerly a reporting or
non-reporting shell company has ceased to be a shell company; (2) the issuer of
the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act; (3) the issuer of the securities has filed all reports and
material required to be filed under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as
applicable, during the preceding twelve months (or shorter period that the
issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K
reports; and (4) at least one year has elapsed from the time the issuer filed
the current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an
entity that is not a shell company
RISKS ASSOCIATED TO OUR BUSINESS
WE HAVE A SOLE DIRECTOR AND OFFICER
Because our sole executive officer occupies all corporate positions, it may not
be possible to have adequate internal controls and that, because the sole
director and officer will determine his salary and perquisites, we may not have
funds available for net income.
POPCORN VENDING COPMANIES CONSIST OF MOSTLY NON-PUBLIC COMPANIES
Because popcorn vending companies consist of mostly non-public companies, a
small popcorn vending company with the added expenses of being a reporting
company might have a competitive disadvantage
FOREIGH EXCHANGE RATES
The Company's operating results and cash flow are significantly affected by
changes in the Polish Zloty relative to the US dollar exchange rate. All of the
Company's revenues will be earned in Polish Zloty, but the equipment and company
maintenance cost will be incurred in US dollars. At this stage of company
development, we do not have strategies to manage the foreign exchange risks.
Foreign exchange fluctuations might negatively impact the Company's financial
performance and results of operations in a material manner.
IMPORT DUTY AND VALUE ADDED TAX
Increase in import duty rate and value added tax will negatively affect the
Company's financial performance and results of operations. Our projections are
based on import duty rate of 1.7% and VAT rate of 23%. If material increase in
those rates will accrue, projections and budgets will have to be adjusted.
WE ARE A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY BUT HAVE NOT YET COMMENCED OPERATIONS IN OUR
BUSINESS. WE EXPECT TO INCUR OPERATING LOSSES FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
7
We were incorporated on October 24, 2013 and to date have minimal business
operations consisting primarily of organizational activities and the purchase of
a 12 oz popcorn machine with cart. Accordingly, we have no way to evaluate the
likelihood that our business will be successful. We have not earned any revenues
as of the date of this prospectus. Potential investors should be aware of the
difficulties normally encountered by new companies and the high rate of failure
of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of
the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in
connection with the operations that we plan to undertake. These potential
problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to the
ability to generate sufficient cash flow to operate our business, and additional
costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. We expect to incur
significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if the
effectiveness of our business plan is not forthcoming, we will not be able to
continue business operations. There is no history upon which to base any
assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and it is
doubtful that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable
operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will
most likely fail.
AS AN "EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY" UNDER THE JOBS ACT, WE ARE PERMITED TO RELY ON
EXEMPTIONS FROM CERTAIN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS.
We qualify as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act. As a result, we
are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure
requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be
required to:
- have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial
reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
- comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or
a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information
about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor
discussion and analysis);
- submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory
votes, such as "say-on-pay" and "say-on-frequency;" and
- disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the
correlation between executive compensation and performance and
comparisons of the Chief Executive's compensation to median employee
compensation.
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. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of
certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to
private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this
extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be
comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting
standards.
We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years, or until the
earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual
gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a "large
accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held
by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most
recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have
issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three
8
year period. Even if we no longer qualify for the exemptions for an emerging
growth company, we may still be, in certain circumstances, subject to scaled
disclosure requirements as a smaller reporting company. For example, smaller
reporting companies, like emerging growth companies, are not required to provide
a compensation discussion and analysis under Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K or
auditor attestation of internal controls over financial reporting.
Until such time, however, 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.
WE ARE SOLELY DEPENDENT UPON THE FUNDS TO BE RAISED IN THIS OFFERING TO START
OUR BUSINESS, THE PROCEEDS OF WHICH MAY BE INSUFFICIENT TO ACHIVE REVENUES. WE
MAY NEED TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH MAY NOT BE AVAIALBLE.
We need the proceeds from this offering to start our operations. Our offering
has no minimum. Specifically, there is no minimum number of shares that needs to
be sold in this offering for us to access the funds. Given that the offering is
a best effort, self-underwritten offering, we cannot assure you that all or any
shares will be sold. We have no firm commitment from anyone to purchase all or
any of the shares offered. We may need additional funds to complete further
development of our business plan to achieve a sustainable sales level where
ongoing operations can be funded out of revenues. We anticipate that we must
raise the minimum capital of $25,000 to commence operations for the 12 month
period and expenses for maintaining a reporting status with the SEC. There is no
assurance that any additional financing will be available or if available, on
terms that will be acceptable to us. We have not taken any steps to seek
additional financing.
IF WE RAISE PRICE OF POPCORN THERE IS A POTENTIAL CHANCE OF REDUCTION IN SALES
If we raise the price of our popcorn, some of our customers may not be willing
or able to pay the increased prices causing a reduction in our sales which may
affect our business negatively. We intend to counteract rising commodity prices,
foreign exchange rates fluctuations and increase in import duty and value added
tax by raising the price of our popcorn and other products. This may negatively
affect the Company's financial performance and results of operations.
WE HAVE YET TO EARN REVENUE AND OUR ABILITY TO SUSTAIN OUR OPERATIONS IS
DEPENDENT ON OUR ABILITY TO RAISE FINANCING FROM THIS OFFERING. AS A RESULT,
THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.
We have accrued net losses of $5,704 for the period from our inception on
October 24, 2013 to May 31, 2014, and have no revenues to date. Our future is
dependent upon our ability to obtain financing from this offering. Further, the
finances required to fully develop our plan cannot be predicted with any
certainty and may exceed any estimates we set forth. These factors raise
substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Thomas J
Harris CPA, our independent registered public accountant, has expressed
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This opinion
could materially limit our ability to raise funds. If we fail to raise
sufficient capital when needed, we will not be able to complete our business
plan. As a result we may have to liquidate our business and you may lose your
9
investment. You should consider our independent registered public accountant's
comments when determining if an investment in Artex Corp. is suitable.
IF WE DO NOT ATTRACT CUSTOMERS, WE WILL NOT MAKE A PROFIT, WHICH ULTIMATELY WILL
RESULT IN A CESSATION OF OPERATIONS.
We currently have no customers to purchase our product. We have not identified
any customers and we cannot guarantee we ever will have any customers. Even if
we obtain customers, there is no guarantee that we will generate a profit. If we
cannot generate a profit, we will have to suspend or cease operations. You are
likely to lose your entire investment if we cannot sell any of our services at
prices which generate a profit.
WE OPERATE IN A HIGHLY COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT, AND IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPETE
WITH OUR COMPETITORS, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS,
CASH FLOWS AND PROSPECTS COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
We operate in a highly competitive environment. Our competition may sell the
same products at competitive prices. Highly competitive environment could
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows and prospects. It is also likely that we may be forced to
lower the price of our popcorn below our set pricing to keep up with completion,
which will affect our profits.
BECAUSE OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR OWNS 100% OF THE COMPANY'S SHARES AND WILL
OWN 26% OF THE COMPANY'S OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK IF WE ARE SUCCESSFUL AT
COMPLETING 100% THIS OFFERING, HE WILL MAKE AND CONTROL CORPORATE DECISIONS THAT
MAY BE DISADVANTAGEOUS TO MINORITY SHAREHOLDERS.
As of the date of this prospectus, Mr. Niezgoda, our sole officer and director,
owns 100% of the company's shares. The following table shows Mr. Niezgoda'
percentage ownership assuming the sale of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, respectively,
of the securities offered:
Funding Level $ 25,000 $ 50,000 $ 75,000 $ 100,000
Offering price $ 0.01 $ 0.01 $ 0.01 $ 0.01
Shares being issued through
the offering 2,500,000 5,000,000 7,500,000 10,000,000
Mr. Niezgoda' Shares 3,500,000 3,500,000 3,500,000 3,500,000
Total Shares Outstanding 6,000,000 8,500,000 11,000,000 13,500,000
Mr. Niezgoda' percentage ownership 58% 41% 32% 26%
10
Accordingly, he will have significant influence in determining the outcome of
all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election of
directors, issuance of additional shares, mergers, consolidations and the sale
of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or
cause a change in control. The interests of Mr. Niezgoda may differ from the
interests of the other shareholders and may result in corporate decisions that
are disadvantageous to other shareholders.
BECAUSE OUR PRINCIPAL ASSETS WILL BE LOCATED IN CIECHOCIN, POLAND, OUTSIDE OF
THE UNITED STATES, AND JACEK NIEZGODA, OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, RESIDES
OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES IN POLAND, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR AN INVESTOR TO
ENFORCE ANY RIGHT BASED ON U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS AGAINST US AND/OR MR.
NIEZGODA, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGEMENT RENDERED BY A UNITED STATES COURT AGAINST US
OR MR. NIEZGODA.
Our principal operations and assets are located in Ciechocin, Poland outside of
the United States, and Jacek Niezgoda, our sole officer and director is a
non-resident of the United States he is a resident of Poland. Therefore, it may
be difficult to effect service of process on Mr. Niezgoda in the United States,
and it may be difficult to enforce any judgment rendered against Mr. Niezgoda.
As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for an investor to bring an
action against Mr. Niezgoda, in the event that an investor believes that such
investor's rights have been infringed under the U.S. securities laws, or
otherwise. Even if an investor is successful in bringing an action of this kind,
the laws of Poland may render that investor unable to enforce a judgment against
the assets of Mr. Niezgoda. As a result, our shareholders may have more
difficulty in protecting their interests through actions against our management,
director or major shareholder, compared to shareholders of a corporation doing
business and whose officers and directors reside within the United States.
Additionally, because of our assets are located outside of the United States,
they will be outside of the jurisdiction of United States courts to administer,
if we become subject of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding. As a result, if
we declare bankruptcy or insolvency, our shareholders may not receive the
distributions on liquidation that they would otherwise be entitled to if our
assets were to be located within the United States under United States
bankruptcy laws.
WE ARTITRARILY DETERMINED THE PRICE OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO BE SOLD
PURSUANT TO THIS PROSPECTUS, AND SUCH PRICE DOES NOT REFLECT THE ACTUAL MARKET
PRICE FOR THE SECURITIES. CONSEQUENTLY, THERE IS AN INCREASED RISK THAT YOU MAY
NOT BE ABLE TO RE-SELL OUR COMMON STOCK AT THE PRICE YOU BOUGHT IT FOR.
The initial offering price of $0.01 per share of the common stock offered
pursuant to this prospectus was determined by us arbitrarily. The price is not
based on our financial condition or prospects, on the market prices of
securities of comparable publicly traded companies, on financial and operating
information of companies engaged in similar activities to ours, or on general
conditions of the securities market. The price may not be indicative of the
market price, if any, for our common stock in the trading market after this
offering. If the market price for our stock drops below the price which you
paid, you may not be able to re-sell out common stock at the price you bought it
for.
11
Our common stock may never be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. To be quoted on
the OTCBB a market maker must file an application on our behalf to make a market
for our common stock. As of the date of this Registration Statement, we have not
engaged a market maker to file such an application, and there is no guarantee
that a market marker will file an application on our behalf, and that even if an
application is filed, there is no guarantee that we will be accepted for
quotation. Our stock may become quoted, rather than traded, on the OTCBB.
When/if our shares of common stock commence trading on the OTC Bulletin Board,
the trading price will fluctuate significantly and shareholders may have
difficulty reselling their shares.
As of the date of this Registration Statement, our common stock does not yet
trade on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. Our common stock may never be
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. When/if our shares of common stock commence
trading on the Bulletin Board, there is a volatility associated with Bulletin
Board securities in general and the value of your investment could decline due
to the impact of any of the following factors upon the market price of our
common stock: (i) disappointing results from our development efforts; (ii)
failure to meet our revenue or profit goals or operating budget; (iii) decline
in demand for our common stock; (iv) downward revisions in securities analysts'
estimates or changes in general market conditions; (v) technological innovations
by competitors or in competing technologies; (vi) lack of funding generated for
operations; (vii) investor perception of our industry or our prospects; and
(viii) general economic trends.
In addition, stock markets have experienced price and volume fluctuations and
the market prices of securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations
are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock. As a result, investors may be unable to sell their
shares at a fair price and you may lose all or part of your investment.
BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE AN ESCROW OR TRUST ACCOUNT FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, IF WE
FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY PROTECTION OR ARE FORCED INTO BANKRUPTCY, OR A CREDITOR
OBTAINS A JUDGMENT AGAINST US AND ATTACHES THE SUBSCRIPTION.
Your funds will not be placed in an escrow or trust account. All subscriptions
in this offering will be available for our immediate use, and will not be
returned regardless of how many shares are sold in this offering. Accordingly,
if we file for bankruptcy protection or a petition for involuntary bankruptcy is
filed by creditors against us, your funds will become part of the bankruptcy
estate and administered according to the bankruptcy laws. If a creditor sues us
and obtains a judgment against us, the creditor could garnish the bank account
and take possession of the subscriptions. As such, it is possible that a
creditor could attach your subscription which could preclude or delay the return
of money to you.
BECAUSE OUR CURRENT PRESIDENT AND EXECUTIVE OFFICER DEVOTE LIMITED AMOUNT OF
TIME TO THE COMPANY, HE MAY NOT BE ABLE OR WILLING TO DEVOTE A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT
OF TIME TO OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS, CAUSING OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL.
Jacek Niezgoda, our President, currently devotes approximately twenty hours per
week providing management services to us. While he presently possesses adequate
time to attend to our interest, it is possible that the demands on his from
other obligations could increase, with the result that he would no longer be
able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business. The loss of
Mr. Niezgoda to our company could negatively impact our business development.
12
OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR DOES NOT HAVE ANY PRIOR EXPERIENCE CONDUCTING
A BEST-EFFORT OFFERING, OR MANAGING A PUBLIC COMPANY
Our sole executive officer and director does not have any experience conducting
a best-effort offering or managing a public company. Consequently, we may not be
able to raise any funds or run our public company successfully. If we are not
able to raise sufficient funds, we may not be able to fund our operations as
planned, and our business will suffer and your investment may be materially
adversely affected. Also, our executive's officers' and director's lack of
experience of managing a public company could cause you to lose some or all of
your investment.
THERE IS NO MINIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES THAT HAS TO BE SOLD IN ORDER FOR THE
OFFERING TO PROCEED
We do not have a minimum amount of funding set in order to proceed with the
offering. If not enough money is raised to begin operations, you might lose your
entire investment because we may not have enough funds to implement our business
plan.
THE TRADING IN OUR SHARES WILL BE REGULATED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION RULE 15G-9 WHICH ESTABLISHED THE DEFINITION OF A "PENNY STOCK."
The shares being offered are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and rules of the
Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose
additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell
our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who are,
generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with
net worth in excess of $6,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 ($300,000
jointly with spouse), or in transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer.
For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker dealer must make
certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual
sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to
be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver
certain disclosures required by the Commission. Consequently, the penny stock
rules may make it difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at
all.
WE ARE SELLING THIS OFFERING WITHOUT AN UNDERWRITER AND MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL
ANY SHARES.
This offering is self-underwritten, that is, we are not going to engage the
services of an underwriter to sell the shares; we intend to sell our shares
through our President, who will receive no commissions. He will offer the shares
to friends, family members, and business associates, however, there is no
guarantee that he will be able to sell any of the shares. Unless he is
successful in selling all of the shares and we receive the proceeds from this
offering, we may have to seek alternative financing to implement our business
plan. We do not have any plans where to seek this alternative financing at
present time.
WE WILL INCUR ONGOING COSTS AND EXPENSES FOR SECURITIES AND ECHANGE COMMISSION
REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE. WITHOUT REVENUE WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REMAIN IN
COMPLIANCE, MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES, IF AT ALL.
Our business plan allows for the payment of the estimated $10,000 ongoing cost
and expenses for SEC reporting and compliances to be paid from existing cash on
hand and director loans. If necessary, Jacek Niezgoda, our Chairman, has
verbally agreed to loan the company funds to complete the registration process.
13
We plan to contact a market maker immediately following the close of the
offering and apply to have the shares quoted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin
Board. To be eligible for quotation, issuers must remain current in their
filings with the SEC. The management will be required to provide an annual
report on our internal controls over financial reporting regardless of our
status as an emerging growth company. In order for us to remain in compliance we
will require future revenues to cover the cost of these filings, which could
comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources. If we are unable
to generate sufficient revenues to remain in compliance it may be difficult for
you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.
WE MAY BE EXPOSED TO POTENTIAL RISKS AND SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES RESULTING FROM THE
REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 404 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002.
When our S-1 becomes effective, we will be required, pursuant to Section 404 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, to include in our annual report our assessment
of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We expect
to incur significant continuing costs, including accounting fees and staffing
costs, in order to maintain compliance with the internal control requirements of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Development of our business will necessitate
ongoing changes to our internal control systems, processes and information
systems. Currently, we have no employees. We do not intend to develop or
manufacture any products, and consequently have no products in development,
manufacturing facilities or intellectual property rights. As we develop our
business, obtain regulatory approval, hire employees and consultants and seek to
protect our intellectual property rights, our, our current design for internal
control over financial reporting will not be sufficient to enable management to
determine that our internal controls are effective for any period, or on an
ongoing basis. Accordingly, as we develop our business, such development and
growth will necessitate changes to our internal control systems, processes and
information systems, all of which will require additional costs and expenses.
In the future, if we fail to complete the annual Section 404 evaluation in a
timely manner, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny and a loss of public
confidence in our internal controls. In addition, any failure to implement
required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their
implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our
reporting obligations.
However, as an "emerging growth company," as defined in the JOBS Act, our
independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to comply
with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act but that management will be required to provide an annual
report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Item 308 of
Regulation S-K in the year following our first annual report required to be
filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act for the prior
fiscal year or the date we are no longer an emerging growth company. At such
time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that
is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our controls
are documented, designed or operating.
WE MAY IN THE FUTURE ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WHICH WILL DILUTE
SHARE VALUE OF INVESTORS IN THIS OFFERING.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 75,000,000 shares of
common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 3,500,000 shares are issued
and outstanding. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial
dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing
shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary
basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other
14
corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held
by investors in the offering, and might have an adverse effect on any trading
market for our common stock.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information contained in this prospectus, including in the documents
incorporated by reference into this prospectus, includes some statements that
are not purely historical or do not relate to present facts or conditions which
may be considered as forward-looking statements." Such forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our Company and
management's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding
the future, including our financial condition, results of operations, and the
expected impact of the offering on the parties' individual and combined
financial performance. In addition, any statements that refer to projections,
forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances,
including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words
"anticipates," "believes," "continue," "could," "estimates," "expects,"
"intends," "may," "might," "plans," "possible," "potential," "predicts,"
"projects," "seeks," "should," "will," "would" and similar expressions, or the
negatives of such terms, may identify forward-looking statements, but the
absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are based on current
expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and the potential
effects on the parties and the transaction. There can be no assurance that
future developments actually affecting us will be those anticipated. These
forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of
which are beyond the parties' control) or other assumptions that may cause
actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or
implied by these forward-looking statements.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Our offering is being made on a self-underwritten basis: no minimum number of
shares must be sold in order for the offering to proceed. The offering price per
share is $0.01. The following table sets forth the uses of proceeds assuming the
sale of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, respectively, of the securities offered for sale
by the Company. There is no assurance that we will raise the full $100,000 as
anticipated. Order of priority is the order in which the uses are listed in the
table

15
We do not intend to use any of the proceeds from the offering to pay for the
cost of the offering. The cost of the offering shall be loaned us from Mr.
Niezgoda.
The above figures represent only estimated costs. Jacek Niezgoda, our president,
has verbally agreed to lend funds to pay for the registration process and lend
funds to implement our business plan and to help maintain a reporting status
with the SEC in the form of a non-secured loan for the next twelve months and
after effectiveness of our registration statement until we complete our offering
as the expenses are incurred if no other proceeds are obtained by the Company.
There are no interest rate, maturity date, as well as any other material terms
of such loan.
However, the verbal agreement is not binding and that there is no guarantee that
we will receive such loans. The amounts actually spent by us for any specific
purpose may vary and will depend on a number of factors. Non-fixed cost, sales
and marketing and general and administrative costs may vary depending on the
business progress, general business conditions and market reception to our
product. Accordingly, our management has broad discretion to allocate the net
proceeds to non-fixed costs.
An example of changes to this spending allocation for non-fixed costs include
management deciding to spend less of the allotment on leases by finding malls
with lower lease rates and spending more on marketing by placing ads in local
newspapers. Such changes to spending may occur due to seasonal variations in
market demand for our products and services relative to when the funds are
received.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The offering price of the shares has been determined arbitrarily by us. It is
not based upon an independent assessment of the value of our shares and should
not be considered as such. The price does not bear any relationship to our
assets, book value, earnings, or other established criteria for valuing a
privately held company. In determining the number of shares to be offered and
the offering price, we took into consideration our cash on hand and the amount
of money we would need to implement our business plan. Accordingly, the offering
price should not be considered an indication of the actual value of the
securities.
DILUTION
The price of the current offering is fixed at $0.01 per common share. This price
is significantly higher than the price paid by our sole director and officer for
common equity since the Company's inception on October 24, 2013. Jacek Niezgoda,
our sole officer and director, paid $0.001 per share for the 3,500,000 common
shares
Assuming completion of the offering, there will be up to 13,500,000 common
shares outstanding. The following table illustrates the per common share
dilution that may be experienced by investors at various funding levels.
Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net
tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net
tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total
liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a
result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being
offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of
the lower book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders. The
following tables compare the differences of your investment in our shares with
the investment of our existing stockholders.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements
that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like:
believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions,
or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place
undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the
date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from historical results or our predictions.
We are a development stage corporation and only recently started our operations.
We have not generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. Our
financial statements for the period from October 24, 2013(date of inception) to
May 31, 2014, report a net loss of $5,704. As of the date of this prospectus we
had $ 2,640.12 in cash on hand. Reasons for the decrease in our cash balance
from $4,157 to $2,640 are: Monthly bank fee of 17$ was paid on 06/02/2014 and
1,500$ fee was paid to our auditor, for quarterly review, Harris & Gillespie
CPAS, PLLC. Our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our
operations for the next 12 months and to qualify our minimum cash requirements
necessary to fund 12 months of operations, if we are unable to successfully
raise money in this offering. The only sources of cash available to us are the
loans that Mr. Niezgoda has made to your company and that at the present time
these loans are the only reason our company will be able to operate for the next
three months. Aggregate amount of loans that Mr. Niezgoda has made to our
company as of Amendment#3 is: 10,200$. We have been utilizing and may utilize
18
funds from Jacek Niezgoda, our sole officer and director, who has verbally
agreed to lend funds to pay for the registration process and loan funds to
implement your business plan or to help maintain a reporting status with the SEC
in the form of a non-secured loan for the next twelve months and after
effectiveness of our registration statement until we complete our offering as
the expenses are incurred if no other proceeds are obtained by the Company.
However, the verbal agreement is not binding and that there is no guarantee that
we will receive such loans.
The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors
believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business
for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills.
This is because we have not generated any revenues. If we are unable to obtain
additional working capital our business may fail. Accordingly, we must raise
cash from sources other than operations. Our only other source for cash at this
time is investments by shareholder in our company. We must raise cash to
implement our projected plan of operations.
No proceeds will be used as direct or indirect payments to Mr. Niezgoda or his
affiliates. Mr. Niezgoda will not receive payment even if he provides a loan to
pay for the legal and professional fees associated with maintaining a reporting
status with the SEC
We qualify as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act. As a result, we
are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure
requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be
required to:
* have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial
reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
* comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or
a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information
about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor
discussion and analysis);
* submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory
votes, such as "say-on-pay" and "say-on-frequency;" and
* disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the
correlation between executive compensation and performance and
comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation
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. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of
certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to
private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this
extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be
comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting
standards.
We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years, or until the
earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual
gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a "large
accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held
by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most
recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have
issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three
year period. Even if we no longer qualify for the exemptions for an emerging
growth company, we may still be, in certain circumstances, subject to scaled
disclosure requirements as a smaller reporting company. For example, smaller
reporting companies, like emerging growth companies, are not required to provide
a compensation discussion and analysis under Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K or
auditor attestation of internal controls over financial reporting.

12 MONTH PLAN OF OPERATION
Our sales and marketing strategy is to move as quickly as possible into the
Poland market with popcorn carts and place them in major cities and in as many
locations as possible. We have already purchased our first Popcorn machine/cart
on Feb. 17, 2014. We plan to place our popcorn carts in Poland major cities such
as Warsaw, Krakow and Lodz. On March 02, 2014 in Warsaw we have signed lease
agreement (Exhibit 10-1) with Leszek Piekut on placing one Popcorn cart at his
location in Warsaw The locations that we think will be most suitable for our
product are shopping malls, schools, colleges, universities, streets, flea
markets, expo shows, ferries, sport games and concerts. In the initial stages of
our company development, we plan to place our popcorn equipment at the malls in
Warsaw and Metropolitan area. All the necessary supplies will be purchased
locally in Warsaw and Metropolitan area, and only popcorn machines on the carts
will be brought from USA.
Our sources of cash will be mainly the proceeds from this offering, and loans
from our director. But there is no guarantee that we will raise funds from
public offering or receive loans from our director. We expect to start
generating revenue after we will make the placement of our equipment. Based on
our plan of operations the placement process will start in the 8 months of
operations after the financing is obtained.
We plan to implement our business plan as soon as funds from this offering
become available. All equipment placements will be done at the malls in Warsaw
and Metropolitan area. Our 12 month plan of operations based on finance amounts

In summary, we expect to be in full operation and to start selling our service
within 12 months of completing our offering. However, there is no guarantee that
we will be in full operation and generate any revenues and there is no guarantee
that we will be able to raise funds through this offering. Until customers start
to purchase our popcorn, we do not believe that our operations will be
profitable. If we are unable to attract customers and cannot generate sufficient
revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease operations. If we
cease operations we likely will dissolve and file for bankruptcy and
shareholders would lose their entire investment in our company. If we are
profitable our plan is to keep expanding to other major cities in Poland.
We are planning to start operations in the business of selling popcorn from
mobile carts in Poland. We plan to spread our operation throughout Poland's
major cities: Warsaw, Krakow and Lodz. We have not decided on the future size or
cost of our expansion at this time. We will be following our business plan from
one city to another. The expansion will be funded from our future revenues and
additional sale of our shares. The time frame of the expansion will depend
solely on the availability of funding from the revenue.
The business steps are as follows:
a) Purchase popcorn machines on carts from USA
b) Buy necessary supplies locally
c) Place stands
We are planning to hire one sales person for each stand who will be compensated
solely by commission payments of 20% from gross sales. When we will have at
least five stands in the city, we intend to hire manager to help train, set up,
control and manage operations. The manager will be receiving 5% from gross sales
from each stand. Our day to day inventory will be funded by sales generated
revenue. There is no need to invest in high inventory levels due to the high
availability of required for production materials in regular stores in Poland.
COMPLETE OUR PUBLIC OFFERING
We expect to complete our public offering within one year after the
effectiveness of our registration statement by the Securities and Exchange
Commissions. We intend to concentrate our efforts on raising capital during this
period. Our operations will be limited due to the limited amount of funds on
hand.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources.
LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an
evaluation of our performance. We are in start-up stage operations and have not
generated any revenues. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our
business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the
establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources
and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and
products.
31
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FROM INCEPTION ON OCTOBER 24, 2013 TO MAY 31, 2014
Since our incorporation, we prepared a business plan, sighed lease agreement
(exhibit 10-1) and purchased one popcorn machine. We have accrued net losses of
$5,704 for the period from our inception on October 24, 2013 to May 31, 2014,
and have no revenues to date. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain
financing from this offering. We have generated no revenue since inception due
to the fact that we are a development stage company and have not yet placed our
popcorn machine.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of May 31, 2014, we had cash in the amount of $ 4,157 and liabilities of
$8,200. As of the date of this prospectus, we a ban balance of $2,640.12. We
currently do not have any operations and we have no income.
Since inception, we have sold 3,500,000 shares of common stock in one offer and
sale, which was to our sole officer and director, at a price of $0.001 per
share, for aggregate proceeds of $3,500.
To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise money from this offering.
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to sell all the shares required. If we
are successful, any money raised will be applied to the items set forth in the
Use of Proceeds section of this prospectus. We will attempt to raise the
necessary funds to proceed with all phases of our plan of operation. The sources
of funding we may consider to fund this work include a public offering, a
private placement of our securities or loans from our director or others.
We are highly dependent upon the success of the public offerings of equity or
debt securities, as described herein. Therefore, the failure thereof would
result in the need to seek capital from other resources such as taking loans,
which would likely not even be possible for the Company. However, if such
financing were available, because we are a development stage company with no
operations to date, we would likely have to pay additional costs associated with
high risk loans and be subject to an above market interest rate. At such time
these funds are required, management would evaluate the terms of such debt
financing. If the Company cannot raise additional proceeds via a private
placement of its equity or debt securities, or secure a loan, the Company would
be required to cease business operations. As a result, investors would lose all
of their investment.
Our auditors have issued a "going concern" opinion, meaning that there is
substantial doubt if we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve
months unless we obtain additional capital. No substantial revenues are
anticipated until we have completed the financing from this offering and
implemented our plan of operations. Our only source for cash at this time is
investments by others in this offering. We must raise cash to implement our
strategy and stay in business. The amount of the offering will likely allow us
to operate for at least one year and have the capital resources required to
cover the material costs with becoming a publicly reporting. The company
anticipates over the next 12 months the cost of being a reporting public
company, including legal and professional fee, will be approximately $10,000.
Based on annual budget of $10,000, our cash burn rate is approximately $833 -
this is the cash burn rate per month. We cannot predict when and if we will be
generating revenues from operations. Management believes current cash balances,
$2640, can sustain operations for 3 months. As of the date of this registration
statement, the current funds available to the Company will not be sufficient to
continue maintaining a reporting status. The company's sole officer and
32
director, Jacek Niezgoda, has verbally agreed to lend funds to pay for the
registration process and lend funds to implement our business plan and to help
maintain a reporting status with the SEC in the form of a non-secured loan for
the next twelve months and after effectiveness of our registration statement
until we complete our offering as the expenses are incurred if no other proceeds
are obtained by the Company. The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and
due on demand.
However, the verbal agreement is not binding and that there is no guarantee that
we will receive such loans. Management believes if the company cannot maintain
its reporting status with the SEC it will have to cease all efforts directed
towards the company. As such, any investment previously made would be lost in
its entirety.
We need a minimum of $25,000 to conduct our proposed operations and pay all
expenses associated with maintaining a reporting status with the SEC.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States. Because a precise
determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events,
the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the
use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. The financial
statements have, in our opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits
of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies
summarized below:
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company reports revenues and expenses use the accrual method of accounting
for financial and tax reporting purposes. The accounting and reporting policies
of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (US
GAAP) applicable to development stage companies
USE OF ESTIMATES
Management uses estimates and assumption in preparing these financial statements
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and
expenses.
DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND CAPITALIZATION
The Company records depreciation and amortization when appropriate using both
straight-line and declining balance methods. Assets depreciated and amortized
over their estimated useful life. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and replacements that
increase the property's useful life are capitalized. Property sold or retired,
together with the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the
appropriated accounts and the resultant gain or loss is included in net income.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "INCOME TAXES" which
codified SFAS 109, "ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES" and FIN 48 "ACCOUNTING FOR
UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES - AN INTERPRETATION OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 109."Under
the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
33
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.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
The financial statements of the Company are maintained in United States dollars
and this is the Company's functional and reporting currency. The operations will
be maintained in Polish Zloty and the consolidated into the Company results in
foreign currency translation adjustments which are recognized as other
comprehensive income. Transactions denominated in other than the United States
dollar are translated as follows with the related transaction gains and losses
being recorded in the Statements of Operations:
(i) Monetary items are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing as at
the balance sheet date;
(ii) Non-Monetary items including equity are recorded at the historical
rate of exchange; and
(iii)Revenues and expenses are recorded at the period average in which the
transaction occurred
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial Accounting Standards statements No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value
of Financial Instruments", requires the Company to disclose, when reasonably
attainable, the fair market values of its assets and liabilities which are
deemed to be financial instruments. The Company's financial instruments consist
primarily of cash.
PER SHARE INFORMATION
The Company computes per share information by dividing the net loss for the
period presented by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during

GENERAL
Artex Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 24, 2013. We are
planning to start operations in the business of selling popcorn from mobile
carts in Poland. We plan to place our popcorn carts in Poland major cities such
as Warsaw, Krakow and Lodz. In the beginning we plan to place our equipment in
the Warsaw and Metropolitan area. We will be following our business plan from
one city to another. The expansion will be funded from our future revenues and
additional sale of our shares. The time frame of the expansion will depend
solely on the availability of funding from the revenue.
We have no intentions to be acquired by an operating company or enter into a
change of control transaction.
As of May 01, 2014, we have not generated any revenues, have minimal assets and
have incurred losses. We have purchased one Popcorn machine with cart and signed
a lease agreement (Exhibit 10-1) with Leszek Piekut for placing one Popcorn cart
at his location in Warsaw.
34
Our Company business steps are as follows:
a) Purchase popcorn machines on carts from USA
b) Buy necessary supplies locally
c) Place stands
PRODUCT
Our product will be popcorn. The flavors will be added by customers. Main
ingredients are popcorn kernels, salt, and oil. Preparation will be done in 12
oz popcorn machines with cart.
TARGET MARKET
Our company is planning to target low and middle income families in Poland. We
plan to start in Warsaw and Metropolitan area, with future planned expansion to
Krakow and Lodz.
COMPETITION
Our competition is large number of small vendors, and hundreds of artisan
producers, who sell snack products as well as packaged popcorn. Many of them
hold the same product price. Our competitive advantage is the freshness of our
product; it is made in front of the customer. We are in competitive disadvantage
due to the additional cost associated with required regulatory filings for
publicly traded companies, foreign exchange rates fluctuations and import duty
and value added tax. We intend to counteract those costs by increasing our
selling prices. If we raise the price of our popcorn, some of our customers may
not be willing or able to pay the increased prices causing a reduction in our
sales which may affect our business negatively. This may negatively affect the
Company's financial performance and results of operations.
In order to compete in this market we have to be price conscious and have name
recognition. In order to achieve the name recognition we will have to follow our
marketing strategy, and if any additional funds will be available, spent it on
additional advertising.
MARKETING
Initially we plan to place our stands in the malls. Our company' ads and
commercials will be placed in malls' advertising magazines, and internal
commercials. Sales personnel will be giving free samples to the people.
In addition, we will be hiring marketing company that does direct mail and
mailbox mailer. Mailbox mailer is simply going around the area close to where
our stands are and placing coupons in the mail box. Direct-mail is a list of
people that signed up to receive coupons but may be living in different areas.

easily relocated specially for short distances.
Examples of the short distances will be within a mall
or an event such as concert, expo show. Relocations
between locations will have to be done by truck. We do
not own the truck; therefore it will be rented out
when required. Due to the weight of the equipment
disassembly, loading, unloading and assembly will
require 2 people. Seles person will be helped by
manager/director or additional help will be hired.

SUPPLIES
All our supplies, such as corn, oils (coconut or canola), salt, flavoring,

levels due to its high availability. Local stores there the supplies can be
purchased are ranging from local corner stores to supermarket chains such as
Alma, Bomi, Piotr i Pawel, Carrefour , Kaufland , and Tesco. Therefore, we plan
to keep minimal inventory on hands.
FREIGHT
We plan to ship 12 oz. popcorn machines with carts from the US to Poland. All
the supplies will be bought locally in Poland and will not require costly
shipping costs. At this stage we do not have written contract with any of the
shipment companies.

We do not have any contracts in place. When we will know the quantity of
equipment we can afford, discounts if any can be discussed/negotiated with the
equipment manufacturers and shipment companies.

business operators required to have a permit in order to sell products to the

zones. Additional permits will have to be purchased for specific ventures such
as expo shows and concerts. Cost is varied based on the venture from $20 to $80
per venture. We do not require any certification for product (popcorn) because
all direct materials will be purchased locally; therefore, no certification will
be required.
37
POPCORN CARTS PLACMENT LOCATIONS
Initially we plan to place 12 oz. popcorn machines with carts in the malls in
Warsaw and Metropolitan area. Our future expansion will be based on the amount
of finance obtained. Popcorn stands will be placed in other major cities such as
Krakow and Lodz and in the following locations: expo shows, concerts, Schools,
Convention Centers, Zoos, Midways, Concession Stands, and Snack Bars. We might
be able to enter into revenue sharing agreement with the owners/management for
the taken space for the commission up to 20% of gross margin. Owner of the
rental space will be paid negotiated percentage (up to 20%) of the location
monthly gross margin. At this stage of company development, have signed a lease
agreement (Exhibit 10-1) with Leszek Piekut for placing one Popcorn cart at his
location in Warsaw, and have not entered in any revenue sharing agreements.
OFFICE
Director will provide our company with office space at no charge. Office will be
located at Ciechocin 28, Ciechocin, 87-100 Poland. Furniture, office equipment,
and supplies will be purchased locally.
LEASES
Our 12 oz. popcorn machine with cart requires one square meter of operational
space. Lease terms and durations in Warsaw and Metropolitan area malls as
follows:
1. Rate is ranging from $75 to $200 per moths or $900 to $2,400 per year.
Tacking in to the account conservatism, our lease expense per location
we will be $200 per month or $2,400 per year.

area: Arkadia, Blue City, Atrium Reduta, King Cross Praga, Zlote Tarasy, and
Sadyba Best Mall)
PRICING
Our product pricing will be at the same level as our surrounding competition.
Suggested Sale Price: $2.00
Cost $0.25
Profit $1.75
(Source: Personal visits to six random stores located in Warsaw and Metropolitan
area.)
Our future pricing will reflect inflation and general commodity price increases.
To keep in line with our competition, we may be forced to lower the price of our
popcorn below our set pricing to keep up with completion, which will affect our
profits.
38
Our cost estimate is based on average supply cost to be purchased from regular
stores in Warsaw and Metropolitan area.
PERSONNEL
We are going to hire locals for the positions of sales people. Sales personnel
salary remuneration will be commission based. Standard rate will be 20% of gross
sales. When we will have at least five stands managers will be hired from locals
or promoted from the sales people. Managers' remuneration is commission of 5% of
gross sales.
Due to the high cooking temperatures caution has to be exercised when handling
equipment. Personnel will have to be trained to operate and service popcorn
equipment. At first, training will be done by Director. Managers will take over
this function when they will be hired.
INSURANCE
We do not hold any insurance. Because we do not have any insurance, if we are
made a party of a products liability action, we may not have sufficient funds to
defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us
that could cause us to cease operations.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, and we are not aware of
any pending or potential legal actions.

engaged. Once we expand operations, and are able to attract more customers to
purchase our product, Jacek Niezgoda has agreed to commit more time as required.
Because Jacek Niezgoda will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our

result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended which could
result in a lack of revenues and a cessation of operations.

equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has
disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a
member.
AUDIT COMMETEE FINANCIAL EXPERT
We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit
committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a
financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we just recently
started our operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a
financial expert are not warranted.
40
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The only conflict that we foresee are that our sole officer and director will
devote time to projects that do not involve us.
TERM OF OFFICE
Each of our directors is appointed to hold office until the next annual meeting
of our stockholders or until his respective successor is elected and qualified,
or until he resigns or is removed in accordance with the provisions of the
Nevada Revised Statues. Our officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and
hold office until removed by the Board or until their resignation.
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, Jacek Niezgoda, who
does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published
listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence
definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is
not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that
neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types
of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a
subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exists which,
in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of
independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though
such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of
directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed
and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each
director's business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate
to us and our management.
COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Board of Directors has no committees. We do not have a standing nominating,

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information concerning the number of
shares of our common stock owned beneficially as of Feb. 13, 2014 by: (i) each
person (including any group) known to us to own more than five percent (5%) of
any class of our voting securities, (ii) our director, and or (iii) our officer.
Unless otherwise indicated, the stockholder listed possesses sole voting and

Ciechocin 28, common stock (direct)
Ciechocin, 87-100
Poland
(1) A beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or
indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or
otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or
to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the
power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be
deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example,
persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In
addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person
has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option)
within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing
the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is
deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and
only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the
percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not
necessarily reflect the person's actual ownership or voting power with respect
to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on Feb. 13, 2014
As of February 13, 2014, there were 3,500,000 shares of our common stock issued
and outstanding.
FUTURE SALES BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS
A total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock were issued to our sole officer and
director, all of which are restricted securities, as defined in Rule 144 of the
Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Securities Act. Under
Rule 144, the shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and
restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing one year after their acquisition.
Our investors are not allowed to rely on Rule 144 of the Securities Act for a
period of one year from the date that we cease to be a shell company. Shares
purchased in this offering, which will be immediately resalable, and sales of
all of our other shares after applicable restrictions expire, could have a
depressive effect on the market price, if any, of our common stock and the
shares we are offering.
There is no public trading market for our common stock. To be quoted on the
OTCBB a market maker must file an application on our behalf to make a market for
our common stock. As of the date of this Registration Statement, we have not
engaged a market maker to file such an application, that there is no guarantee
that a market marker will file an application on our behalf, and that even if an
application is filed, there is no guarantee that we will be accepted for
quotation. Our stock may become quoted, rather than traded, on the OTCBB.
43
There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities
convertible into, our common stock. There is one holder of record for our common
stock. The record holder is our sole officer and director who owns 3,500,000
restricted shares of our common stock.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION; TERMS OF THE OFFERING
Artex Corp. has 3,500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of
the date of this prospectus. The Company is registering an additional of
10,000,000 shares of its common stock for sale at the price of $0.01 per share.
There is no arrangement to address the possible effect of the offering on the
price of the stock.
In connection with the Company's selling efforts in the offering, Jacek Niezgoda
will not register as a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 15 of the Exchange Act,
but rather will rely upon the "safe harbor" provisions of SEC Rule 3a4-1,
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"). Generally speaking, Rule 3a4-1 provides an exemption from the
broker-dealer registration requirements of the Exchange Act for persons
associated with an issuer that participate in an offering of the issuer's
securities. Mr. Niezgoda is not subject to any statutory disqualification, as
that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act. Mr. Niezgoda will
not be compensated in connection with his participation in the offering by the
payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly
on transactions in our securities. Mr. Niezgoda is not, nor has he been within
the past 12 months, a broker or dealer, and he is not, nor has he been within
the past 12 months, an associated person of a broker or dealer. At the end of
the offering, Mr. Niezgoda will continue to primarily perform substantial duties
for the Company or on its behalf otherwise than in connection with transactions
in securities. Mr. Niezgoda will not participate in selling an offering of
securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months other than in reliance
on Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1(a)(4)(i) or (iii).
Mr. Niezgoda will be selling the registered shares.
Artex Corp. will receive all proceeds from the sale of the 10,000,000 shares
being offered. The price per share is fixed at $0.01 for the duration of this
offering. Although our common stock is not listed on a public exchange or quoted
over-the-counter, we intend to seek to have our shares of common stock quoted on
the Over-the Counter Bulletin Board. In order to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin
Board, a market maker must file an application on our behalf in order to make a
market for our common stock. There can be no assurance that a market maker will
agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, nor can there be any assurance
that such an application for quotation will be approved. However, sales by the
Company must be made at the fixed price of $0.01 per share.
The Company will not offer its shares for sale through underwriters, dealers,
agents or anyone who may receive compensation in the form of underwriting
discounts, concessions or commissions from the Company and/or the purchasers of
the shares for whom they may act as agents. The shares of common stock sold by
the Company may be occasionally sold in one or more transactions; all shares
sold under this prospectus will be sold at a fixed price of $0.01 per share.
STATE SECURITIES - BLUE SKY LAWS
There is no established public market for our common stock, and there can be no
assurance that any market will develop in the foreseeable future. Transfer of
our common stock may also be restricted under the securities or securities
regulations laws promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions,
commonly referred to as "Blue Sky" laws. Absent compliance with such individual
state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions. Because
the securities registered hereunder have not been registered for resale under
the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares and persons who
44
desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future,
should be aware that there may be significant state blue-sky law restrictions
upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to
purchase the securities. Accordingly, investors may not be able to liquidate
their investments and should be prepared to hold the common stock for an
indefinite period of time.
In order to comply with the applicable securities laws of certain states, the
securities will be offered or sold in those only if they have been registered or
qualified for sale; an exemption from such registration or if qualification
requirement is available and with which Artex Corp. has complied.
In addition and without limiting the foregoing, the Company will be subject to
applicable provisions, rules and regulations under the Exchange Act with regard
to security transactions during the period of time when this Registration
Statement is effective.
Our shares of common stock are subject to the "penny stock" rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks". Penny
stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other
than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on
the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with
respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or
system). Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized
risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about
penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market.
A broker-dealer must also provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for
the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer, and sales person in the
transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each
penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules
require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from
those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that
the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the
purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements
may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for
stock that becomes subject to those penny stock rules. If a trading market for
our common stock develops, our common stock will probably become subject to the
penny stock rules, and shareholders may have difficulty in selling their shares.
Artex Corp. will pay all expenses incidental to the registration of the shares
(including registration pursuant to the securities laws of certain states) which
we expect to be $10,000.
OFFERING PERIOD AND EXPIRATION DATE
This offering will start on the date that this registration statement is
declared effective by the SEC and continue for a period of one year. The
offering shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the date when the sale of all
10,000,000 shares is completed, (ii) when the Board of Directors decides that it
is in the best interest of the Company to terminate the offering prior the
completion of the sale of all 10,000,000 shares registered under the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is part or (iii) one year after
the effective date of this prospectus. We will not accept any money until this
registration statement is declared effective by the SEC.
PROCEDURES FOR SUBSCRIBING
If you decide to subscribe for any shares in this offering, you must
- execute and deliver a subscription agreement; and
- deliver a check or certified funds to us for acceptance or rejection.
45
All checks for subscriptions must be made payable to "Artex Corp."
RIGHT TO REJECT SUBSCRIPTIONS
We have the right to accept or reject subscriptions in whole or in part, for any
reason or for no reason. All monies from rejected subscriptions will be returned
immediately by us to the subscriber, without interest or deductions.

for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if
they so choose, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not
be able to elect any of our directors. After this offering is completed,
assuming the sale of all of the shares of common stock, present stockholder Mr.
Niezgoda will own approximately 26% of our outstanding shares and investors in
the offering will own 74%.
CASH DIVIDENDS
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to
stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the
discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any,
our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic
conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to
pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest
earnings, if any, in our business operations.
NEVADA ANTI-TAKEOVER LAWS
Currently, we have no Nevada shareholders and since this offering will not be
made in the State of Nevada, no shares will be sold to its residents. Further,
we do not do business in Nevada directly or through an affiliate corporation and
we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, there are no anti-takeover provisions
that have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in our control.
The Nevada Business Corporation Law contains a provision governing "Acquisition
of Controlling Interest." This law provides generally that any person or entity
that acquires 20% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a publicly-held
Nevada corporation in the secondary public or private market may be denied
voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless a majority of the
disinterested stockholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting
rights in whole or in part. The control share acquisition law provides that a
person or entity acquires "control shares" whenever it acquires shares that, but
for the operation of the control share acquisition act, would bring its voting
power within any of the following three ranges: (1) 20 to 33 1/3%, (2) 33 1/3 to
50%, or (3) more than 50%. A "control share acquisition" is generally defined as
the direct or indirect acquisition of either ownership or voting power
associated with issued and outstanding control shares. The stockholders or board
of directors of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation
from the provisions of the control share acquisition act through adoption of a
provision to that effect in the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the
corporation. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not exempt our common
stock from the control share acquisition law. The control share acquisition law
is applicable only to shares of "Issuing Corporations" as defined by the act. An
Issuing Corporation is a Nevada corporation, which; (1) has 200 or more
stockholders, with at least 100 of such stockholders being both stockholders of
record and residents of Nevada; and (2) does business in Nevada directly or
through an affiliated corporation.
At this time, we do not have 100 stockholders of record resident of Nevada.
Therefore, the provisions of the control share acquisition law do not apply to
acquisitions of our shares and will not until such time as these requirements
have been met. At such time as they may apply to us, the provisions of the
control share acquisition law may discourage companies or persons interested in
acquiring a significant interest in or control of the Company, regardless of
whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our stockholders.
47
The Nevada "Combination with Interested Stockholders Statute" may also have an
effect of delaying or making it more difficult to effect a change in control of
the Company. This statute prevents an "interested stockholder" and a resident
domestic Nevada corporation from entering into a "combination," unless certain
conditions are met. The statute defines "combination" to include any merger or
consolidation with an "interested stockholder," or any sale, lease, exchange,
mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition, in one transaction or a series
of transactions with an "interested stockholder" having; (1) an aggregate market
value equal to 5 percent or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of
the corporation; (2) an aggregate market value equal to 5 percent or more of the
aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation; or (3)
representing 10 percent or more of the earning power or net income of the
corporation. An "interested stockholder" means the beneficial owner of 10
percent or more of the voting shares of a resident domestic corporation, or an
affiliate or associate thereof. A corporation affected by the statute may not
engage in a "combination" within three years after the interested stockholder
acquires its shares unless the combination or purchase is approved by the board
of directors before the interested stockholder acquired such shares. If approval
is not obtained, then after the expiration of the three-year period, the
business combination may be consummated with the approval of the board of
directors or a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders,
or if the consideration to be paid by the interested stockholder is at least
equal to the highest of:
(1) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within
the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of
the combination or in the transaction in which he became an interested
stockholder, whichever is higher;
(2) the market value per common share on the date of announcement of the
combination or the date the interested stockholder acquired the
shares, whichever is higher; or (3) if higher for the holders of
preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock.
The effect of Nevada's business combination law is to potentially
discourage parties interested in taking control of the Company from
doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our board of directors.
REPORTS
After we complete this offering, we will not be required to furnish you with an
annual report. Further, we will not voluntarily send you an annual report. We
will be required to file reports with the SEC under section 15(d) of the

required to file are Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K. You may read copies of any

SEC also maintains an Internet site that will contain copies of the reports we
file electronically. The address for the Internet site is www.sec.gov.
STOCK TRANSFER AGENT
We do not have a Transfer Agent.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we will indemnify an officer,
director, or former officer or director, to the full extent permitted by law. We
have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
48
person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by one of our director, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the
securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of
whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Artex Corp.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Artex Corp. (A Development
Stage Company) as of February 28, 2014 and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period then ended and from October
24, 2013 (inception) through February 24, 2014. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
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 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 audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Artex Corp. (A Development
Stage Company) as of February 24, 2014 and from October 24, 2013 (inception)
through February 28, 2014 and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the period then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #2 to the financial
statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain
profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also described in
Note #2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to
cover operating costs over an extended period of time.
Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future,
on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends
to position itself so that it may be able to raise additional funds through the

the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become
financially viable and continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development Stage Company
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles related to development stage companies.
A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have
not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant
revenues there from.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the

through February 28, 2014.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2014
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset
and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws.
A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that,
based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Use 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 and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the
reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services
have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC
Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not
granted any stock options.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss
applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common
shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing
the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of
shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such
common stock equivalents outstanding as of February 28, 2014.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has which established standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. When applicable,
the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders'
Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any
significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive
income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Artex Corp. does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting
pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of
operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 4 - LOAN FROM DIRECTOR
On November 20, 2013, a director loaned $200 to the Company to open bank
account. The loan is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand.
The balance due to the director was $200 as of February 28, 2014.
NOTE 5 - COMMON STOCK
The Company has 75,000,000, $0.001 par value shares of common stock authorized.
On February 13, 2014, the Company issued 3,500,000 shares of common stock to a
director for cash proceeds of $3,500 at $0.001 per share.
There were 3,500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of
February 28, 2014.
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer
has provided office services without charge. There is no obligation for the
officer to continue this arrangement. Such costs are immaterial to the financial
statements and accordingly are not reflected herein. The officers and directors
are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved
in other business activities in the future.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
As of February 28, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of
approximately $3,515 that may be available to reduce future years' taxable
income in varying amounts through 2031. Future tax benefits which may arise as a
result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements,
as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the
Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating
to these tax loss carry-forwards.
The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:
February 28, 2014
-----------------
Federal income tax benefit attributable to:
Current Operations $ 1,195
Less: valuation allowance (1,195)
--------
Net provision for Federal income taxes $ 0
========

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2014
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items
comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:
February 28, 2014
-----------------
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
Net operating loss carryover $ 1,195
Less: valuation allowance (1,195)
--------
Net deferred tax asset $ 0
========
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net
operating loss carry forwards of approximately $3,515 for Federal income tax
reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in
ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in
future years.
NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with SFAS 165 (ASC 855-10) the Company has analyzed its operations
from February 28, 2014 to the date these financial statements were issued, April
14, 2014, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent
events to disclose in these financial statements.

operating costs over an extended period of time.
Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future,
on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends
to position itself so that it may be able to raise additional funds through the
capital markets. In light of management's efforts, there are no assurances that
the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become
financially viable and continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles related to development stage companies.
A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have
not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant
revenues there from.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the
period ending May 31, 2014 and for the period October 24, 2013 (inception)
through May 31, 2014.
Cash and Cash Equivalents

of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $4,157 of cash
as of May 31, 2014.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and
amounts due to shareholder. The carrying amount of these financial instruments
approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that
approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these
financial statements.
Income Taxes

and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws.
A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that,
based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Use 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 and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the
reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services
have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC
Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not
granted any stock options.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss
applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common
shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing
the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of
shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such
common stock equivalents outstanding as of May 31, 2014.
Depreciation, Amortization and Capitalization
The Company records depreciation and amortization when appropriate using both
straight-line and declining balance methods. Assets depreciated and amortized
over their estimated useful life. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and replacements that
increase the property's useful life are capitalized. Property sold or retired,
together with the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the
appropriated accounts and the resultant gain or loss is included in net income.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has which established standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. When applicable,
the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders'
Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any
significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive
income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Artex Corp. does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting
pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of
operations, financial position or cash flow.

There were 3,500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of May 31,
2014.
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer
has provided office services without charge. There is no obligation for the
officer to continue this arrangement. Such costs are immaterial to the financial
statements and accordingly are not reflected herein. The officers and directors
are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved
in other business activities in the future.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
As of May 31, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of
approximately $5,704 that may be available to reduce future years' taxable
income in varying amounts through 2031. Future tax benefits which may arise as a
result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements,
as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the
Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating
to these tax loss carry-forwards.
The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:
May 31, 2014
------------
Federal income tax benefit attributable to:
Current Operations $ 1,939
Less: valuation allowance (1,939)
--------
Net provision for Federal income taxes $ 0
========
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items
comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:
May 31, 2014
------------
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
Net operating loss carryover $ 1,939
Less: valuation allowance (1,939)
--------
Net deferred tax asset $ 0
========
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net
operating loss carry forwards of approximately $5,704 for Federal income tax
reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in
ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in
future years.
NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with SFAS 165 (ASC 855-10) the Company has analyzed its operations
from May 31, 2014 to the date these financial statements were issued, June 21,
2014, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to
disclose in these financial statements.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTOR AND OFFICERS
Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Corporate Law provides, in part, that a
corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Similar indemnity is authorized for such persons against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in defense or settlement of
any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and
provided further that (unless a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise
provides) such person shall not have been adjudged liable to the corporation.
Any such indemnification may be made only as authorized in each specific case
upon a determination by the stockholders or disinterested directors that
indemnification is proper because the indemnity has met the applicable standard
of conduct. Where an officer or a director is successful on the merits or
otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, we must indemnify him
against the expenses which such offer or director actually or reasonably
incurred.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
II-1
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Set forth below is information regarding the issuance and sales of securities
without registration since inception. On Feb. 13 2014, Artex Corp. offered and

access to registration-type information about the Company. No commission was
paid in connection with the sale of any securities an no general solicitations
were made to any person.

any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
