REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

KCI Investments, LLC

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of KCI Investments, LLC (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, members’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.  

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of KCI Investments, LLC as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company will need additional working capital to service its debt and for its planned activities, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

KCI INVESTMENTS, LLC

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

KCI Investments, LLC (“the Company”) was incorporated on November 8, 2004 under the laws of the State of Nevada, but did not engage in any business operations until November 2010. The Company has elected a calendar fiscal year end. The Company develops franchises and operates fast-casual, fresh sandwich shops. As of December 31, 2013, the Company operated 11 restaurants through the United States. The Company has aggregated its operations into one reportable segment.

 

NOTE 2—GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has a working capital deficit of $6,004,259 and an accumulated deficit of $14,726,119. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to: identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing and generate profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, including wholly-owned subsidiaries and investees that the Company controls. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. 

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. 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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from restaurant sales is recognized when food and beverage products are sold. The Company reports revenue net of sales and use taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental taxing authorities.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable primarily consists of payroll-related tax receivables, vendor rebates and receivables arising from the normal course of business from catering sales. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable based on a specific review of account balances. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recoverability is considered remote. Allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $0, respectively.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Inventory

Inventory (consisting principally of food, beverages and supplies), is valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Certain key ingredients bread, meats vegetables, cheeses and beverages are purchased from a small number of suppliers.

 

Leasehold Improvements, Property and Equipment

Leasehold improvements, property and equipment are recorded at cost. Internal costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a restaurant are expensed as incurred and included are pre–opening expenses. Expenditures for major renewals and improvements are capitalized while expenditures for minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term, which generally includes reasonably assured options periods, or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated depreciation and the related gain or loss, if any, is reflected in loss on disposal of assets in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

 

At least annually, the Company evaluates, and adjusts when necessary, the estimated useful lives. The changes in estimated useful lives did not have a material impact on depreciation in any period. The estimated useful lives are:

 

Leasehold improvements and buildings 3-20 years
Furniture and fixtures 4-10 years
Equipment 3-7 years

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For the purpose of reviewing restaurant assets to be held and used for potential impairment, assets are grouped together at the market level, or in the case of a potential relocation or closure, at the restaurant level. The Company manages its restaurants as a group with significant common costs and promotional activities; as such, an individual restaurant’s cash flows are not generally independent of the cash flows of others in a market. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. During the years ended December 31, 2013, and 2012, no assets were disposed of due to impairment.

 

Income Taxes

The Company is a Limited Liability Company taxed as a partnership under the IRS Code. The Company passes any gains and losses to the individual units owners and does not pay any Federal Income Taxes, but does pay $800 in California State Income Taxes.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $336,761 and $81,037 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Advertising and marketing costs are included in other operating costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Rent

Rent expense for the Company’s leases, which generally have escalating rentals over the term of the lease, is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease term is the lesser of 20 years inclusive of reasonably assured renewal periods, or the lease term. The lease term begins when the Company has the right to control the use of the property, which is typically before rent payments are due under the lease. Pre-opening rent is included in pre-opening costs in the consolidated income statement. Tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recorded in deferred rent and amortized as reductions of rent expense over the term of the lease.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Additionally, certain of the Company’s operating leases contain clauses that provide additional contingent rent based on a percentage of sales greater than certain specified target amounts. The Company recognizes contingent rent expense provided the achievement of that target is considered probable.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss per Unit

Basic loss per unit is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to unit holders by the weighted average number of units during the period. Diluted loss per unit is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to unit holders by the diluted weighted average number of Units outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of units outstanding is adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are 6,413,518 such unit equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2013, which were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per unit as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or inputs that are corroborated by market data

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment”, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model for determining the fair value of stock based compensation.

 

The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards based upon ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.”  ASC 505-50 requires the costs of goods and services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments to be recognized using the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity award, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of the equity award is determined on the measurement date, which is the earlier of the date that a performance commitment is reached or the date that performance is complete.  Generally, our awards do not entail performance commitments.  When an award vests over time such that performance occurs over multiple reporting periods, we estimate the fair value of the award as of the end of each reporting period and recognize an appropriate portion of the cost based on the fair value on that date.  When the award vests, we adjust the cost previously recognized so that the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date the performance is complete.

 

The Company recognizes the cost associated with share-based awards that have a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the entire award.

NOTE 10—DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

Effective July 31, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 815 which defines determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is solely indexed to an entity’s own stock. The conversion price of certain convertible notes and exercise price of certain warrants are variable and subject to the fair value of the Company’s units on the date of conversion or exercise. As a result, the Company has determined that the conversion and exercise features are not considered to be solely indexed to the Company’s own stock and is therefore not afforded equity treatment. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company has bifurcated the conversion and exercise features of the instruments to be recorded as a derivative liability.

 

ASC 815 requires Company management to assess the fair market value of certain derivatives at each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as items of other income or expense. The Company’s only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its derivative liability associated with convertible notes payable and warrants.

 

At origination and subsequent revaluations, the Company valued the derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes options pricing model under the following assumptions:

 

    2013   2012
         
Risk-free interest rate   1.37% - 1.75%   0.02% - 0.79%
Expected options life   3.55 - 5.00   0.33 - 5.00
Expected dividend yield   -   -
Expected price volatility   136.6% - 205.3%   102.3% - 173.8%

 

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company’s derivative liability decreased from $591,481 to $445,724 and recognized a gain on derivative liability of $592,343 in conjunction with settlement of convertible notes payable, additions of new derivative liabilities and subsequent revaluations of existing derivative liabilities.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company’s derivative liability increased from $445,724 to $976,025 and recognized a gain on derivative liability of $164,334 in conjunction with settlement of convertible notes payable, additions of new derivative liabilities and subsequent revaluations of existing derivative liabilities.

 

NOTE 11— DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

 

Debit issuance costs represent member units issued to note holders at the execution of note payable agreements. The Company has capitalized the fair value of member interests issued with an offset to debt issuance costs. Such discounts are then amortized to interest expense over the estimated life of the note.

 

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company’s debt issuance costs consisted of the following:

 

   December 31,   December 31, 
   2013   2012 
Capitalized debt issuance costs  $866,191   $335,200 
Less: Accumulated amortization   (421,709)   (3,674)
Original issuance discounts, net  $444,482   $331,606 

 

Interest expense on original issuance discounts included as a charge to income was $418,035 and $3,674 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Each Class B unit is entitled to receive distributions equal to 0.5 percent of the value of the units held each year.

 

Adjudication and redemption – the Class B membership units are linked to approval of an EB-5 Visa, which requires a foreign investor to invest $1,000,000 (or at least $500,000 in a "Targeted Employment Area" - high unemployment or rural area), in projects that create at least 10 jobs for U.S. workers.  The terms of the instrument state that the Class B membership units have a five-year life but that, once adjudication is reached in the EB-5 Visa approval process, the managing member of the LLC may, in its sole discretion, elect to have the Company purchase, for fair market value, the unit holders Class B Units at any time following an offer by such member to sell his or her Class B Units. This election is optional on the part of the managing member and member has no rights to cause the managing member or the Company to repurchase or redeem such member’s Class B unit. As such, the units (1) are not mandatorily redeemable, (2) are redeemable at the sole discretion of the Company and (3) not redeemable at the sole option of the unit holder and the redemption must be agreed to by Company.

 

As Class B units are not entitled to the distribution of profits and losses, and as they are not mandatorily redeemable, the shares have been presented as permanent equity on the face of the balance sheet and no adjustments for minority interests have been made.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued one (1) Class B membership unit in exchange for total cash proceeds of $560,000 (inclusive of $60,000 received for administrative fees).

NOTE 16—SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

New Store Openings

Subsequent to 12/31/2013 ("Year End"), the Company opened its eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth Capriotti's Sandwich Shops, in:

 

·Irvine, California (on 2/17/14);
·Fountain Valley, California (on 4/7/14), and
·North Las Vegas, Nevada (on 8/14/2014).

 

The Company in 2014 signed leases to open two additional Capriotti's Sandwich shops, all of which it anticipates opening before year-end 2014 - in addition to the anticipated opening in 2014 of two locations for which leases were signed in 2013

 

Papa John's

The Company, on March 17, 2014, entered into an Area Development Agreement (the "ADA") with Papa John's International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Papa John's Franchisor”), which granted the Company the exclusive rights to develop at least 24 Papa John's in exclusive trade areas stretching from Fresno to north of Sacramento, California. The ADA also provided for the Papa John’s Franchisor to provide the Company significant start-up subsidies and reduced annual royalty fees.

 

The Papa John's brand is owned by Papa John's International, Inc. (Stock Symbol: PZZA). Papa John's claims:

 

·to be the world's third largest pizza delivery company, and
·that for 12 of the past 14 years, consumers have rated Papa John's No. 1 in customer satisfaction among all national pizza chains in the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI).

 

Papa John's was the Official Pizza Sponsor of the National Football League and Super Bowl XLVIII. Papa John’s operates and franchises pizza delivery and carryout restaurants under the Papa John’s trademark worldwide. The company also operates dine-in and delivery restaurants in certain international markets. As of December 29, 2013, it operated 4,428 Papa John’s restaurants consisting of 723 company-owned and 3,705 franchised restaurants in 50 states of the United States and 35 countries. Papa John's was founded in 1985 and is headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky.

 

The typical Papa John's franchise is a retail restaurant devoted primarily to the sale of pizza and related food products. The majority of Papa John's franchises are operated on a delivery and carry-out basis. However, there are a few restaurants that offer dine-in service and there may be additional restaurants with dine-in service developed in the future. Papa John's does permit development of restaurants in non-traditional venues, such as sports stadiums and food courts. The traditional Papa John's franchise is typically operated in leased space located on or near main thoroughfares. Restaurants operated under the Non-Traditional Program are typically located in sports stadiums or arenas and generally do not offer delivery service.

 

The Company's Papa John's restaurants will offer Papa John's products, most of which are ordered by phone or online and they either picked up as to-go orders or delivered by Papa John's drivers to customers at their locations.

 

To-date, the Company has signed leases to open five Papa John's restaurants, all of which it anticipates opening before year-end 2014.

 

Alex Stratta Concepts

On May 1, 2014, the Company signed an agreement in principal with celebrity chef Alex Stratta to jointly develop, open and operate various restaurant and other food-service concepts as the Company's Vice President of New Concept. Recognized as a James Beard award winner and by Mobil 5 star, Forbes 5 star and Michelin 2 star awards of excellence for the past 20 years, Stratta also was the first "Iron Chef", having played the role of Iron Chef Italian on the television show Iron Chef America. He also appeared on Bravo’s Top Chef Masters.

Alex Stratta Italian Steakhouse

The Company, on July 17, 2014, announced that it had signed a lease to open its first Alex Stratta-inspired restaurant - Alex Stratta Italian Steakhouse”, a fine-dining establishment to be located in a new development in Southwest Las Vegas, just off Interstate 215 near Russell Road. The Gramercy is owned by New Russell One, LLC, and is being developed by SWLV LLC, which consists of representatives of The Krausz Companies, Inc. and WGH Partners. New Russell One, LLC purchased the site re-titling it the Gramercy in the process - after New York’s famed park of the same name. The owner’s stated aim to re-create the neighborhood feel of that tree-lined community with the project’s: four-story luxury lofts (160 units) and mixed-use dining, retail and office space, and a nine-story condo tower with 85 units scheduled for a later phase of development. In all, the Gramercy encompasses 500,000 square feet over 20 acres plus underground parking and is scheduled to complete Phase 1 before the end of 2014.

 

The Company is leasing approximately 5,348 square feet pursuant to a 10-year lease commencing the earlier to occur of: (i) the date upon which the restaurant first commences to conduct business on the premises or (ii) 180 days after New Russell One tenders possession of the premises to the Company. In addition to the minimum annual rental rate of $213,920 at commencement, the Company must pay a “Percentage Rent” of six percent (6%) of its gross sales from the restaurant, calculated and payable on a quarterly basis, in excess of the applicable “Breakpoint” for that period. “Breakpoint,” as defined in the Lease, for a period means the amount obtained by dividing the base rent payable during such period by 6 percent. Additionally, the Lease provides for security and other deposits totaling approximately $58,000, and the Lease is guaranteed by DIXI. The Landlord is providing a tenant improvement allowance of approximately $540,000 Of the remaining budgeted construction and equipment costs of approximately $1.3 million, the Company is required to fund 1/3 and the landlord is required to provide the remaining 2/3's - as a loan to the Company repayable by one year after the opening of this restaurant.

 

Elements Kitchen & Martini Bar

On August 5, 2014, the Company announced that it has reached an agreement to acquire “Elements Kitchen & Martini Bar”, a neighborhood bar and "white table cloth" restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada. Until the acquisition is consummated, the Company, through its newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary "Elements an Alex Stratta Casual Restaurant LLC", will manage the nonalcohol aspects of Elements.

 

Elements is located at Rainbow and Tropicana in Southwest Las Vegas and has operated since 2009 as a high-quality but affordably-priced casual dining restaurant and bar. Celebrity chef Alex Stratta will oversee Elements and plans to enhance the menu while maintaining the price and feel of a neighborhood bar/restaurant featuring over 500 Martini cocktails.

 

The Company has committed to acquire Elements' assets and business for $290,000 less certain adjustments.

On June 4, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), Dixie Foods International, Inc. ("DIXI") closed a voluntary share exchange transaction (the “Exchange Transaction”) with KCI Investments, LLC ("KCI") and the shareholders of KCI. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, the KCI unitholders acquired 40,814,376 (96%) of the 42,514,976 issued and outstanding common stock of DIXI.
