Description of the Company







In April 2014, the sole stockholder of Shire Warwick Lewis Capital Markets Limited ("SWLC Markets") exchanged all of his ordinary shares for the same ownership of Shire Warwick Lewis Group Limited ("SWLG"), at which time SWLC Markets became a wholly-owned subsidiary of SWLG.  This transaction constituted an exchange of shares necessary for legal purposes, however, lacks substance for accounting purposes since ownership interests have not changed.


The founders of the Shire Warwick Lewis Group Limited and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Shire Warwick Lewis Asset Management Limited, Shire Warwick Lewis DMA Systems Limited, Shire Warwick Lewis Finance Limited, Shire Warwick Lewis Venture Capital Limited and Shire Warwick Lewis Capital Markets Limited are seeking to establish a broad diversified financial services group of companies providing investment banking, securities trading, the market making of cash products and their derivatives, asset management, asset financing, venture capital and real estate investment. SWLG was organized under the laws of the United Kingdom in March 2014.


Effective July 2, 2014, SWLG was merged into an existing company, Shire Warwick Lewis Holdings, Inc. (SWLH), that had no activity.  SWLH is a Delaware corporation whose previous name was DE Acquisition 4, Inc.  SWLH has authorized 500,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock with par values of $0.0001 per share for both classes of stock.  Simultaneous with the merger, the existing stockholders of SWLG exchanged all of their shares (714 ordinary shares) for 2,000,000 shares of SWLH common stock.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)













Use of Estimates








The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.











Cash and Cash Equivalents







Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less.











Office Equipment








Office equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated using the straight line method over the estimates useful life of the asset of 5 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized.











Trading Securities, Trading Securities Sold but not yet Purchased and Related Trading Income


The Company's investments are comprised of trading securities at fair value, which include equity securities and trading securities sold but not yet purchased consisting of bonds from financial institutions that are publicly traded.  These securities are both valued on a closing date basis.   Any realized gains or losses or unrealized gains or losses are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.  The Company measures fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes into three levels the components of valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value.  The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to the quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)  lower priority to inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).  The Company has measured the trading securities as Level 1 inputs, and trading securities sold but not yet purchased as level 2 inputs.











Income Taxes








The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries are liable for taxes under local laws where they operate (United Kingdom) and accordingly, a provision for taxes has been made in the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. These amounts are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.  The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries are subject to local tax examinations by the tax authorities for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Foreign Currency Translation







The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities, and weighed average exchange rates for each period for revenues and expenses, and are all recorded in the unaudited interim consolidated statement of operations.











Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements





In May 2014, the FASB issued an update to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers that will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance.  Under this update, an entity is required to recognize revenue upon transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash terms arising from customer contracts including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company has not determined the potential effects on the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.
