Notes to Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
Back to Table of Contents

Note 1. The Company

American Biogenetic Sciences, Inc. (the "Company", “We” or the "Registrant") was incorporated in Delaware on September 1, 1983. Prior to ceasing its operations in 2002, the Company was engaged in the research, development and production of bio-pharmaceutical products. On September 19, 2002, the Registrant filed for bankruptcy under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Eastern District of New York. On November 4, 2005, the Company emerged from Bankruptcy Court. On August 13, 2010, the Company's sole officer/director transferred and assigned his control stock position to an unrelated third party but remained as the Company's sole executive officer/director.

Note 2. Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses, has negative operational cash flows and has no revenues. The future of the Company is dependent upon Management's success in its efforts and limited resources to pursue and effect a business combination. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

Note 3. Basis of Presentation

The Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The accounting policies are described in the “Notes to the Financial Statements” in the 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and updated, as necessary, in this Form 10-Q. The year-end balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.

Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: ASC #825, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2014. These financial instruments include accounts payable and accrued expenses. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values.

Earnings per Common Share: Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of options to purchase common stock (only if those options are exercisable and at prices below the average share price for the period) and shares issuable upon the conversion of issued and outstanding preferred stock. Due to the net losses reported, dilutive common equivalent shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented. There were no common equivalent shares required to be added to the basic weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at diluted weighted average shares outstanding as of September 30, 2014 or 2013.

Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC #740, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current year and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. Measurement of deferred income tax is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This guidance prescribes a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There are no uncertain tax positions taken by the Company on its tax returns. Tax years subsequent to 2005 remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax jurisdictions.

Management of the Company is not aware of any additional needed liability for unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2014 and 2013. The Company has net operating losses of about $447,887, which begin to expire in 2025.

Impact of recently issued accounting standards

There were no new accounting pronouncements that had a significant impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position.

Note 4. Convertible Notes to Related Party

On October 2, 2009, we issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $76,000 to our sole officer/director. The note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum until paid or the note and accrued interest is converted into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share. The convertible note was issued in consideration of cash advances made and for services provided to the Company by the sole officer/director, who was also the Company's controlling shareholder. On August 13, 2010, the Company's sole officer/director transferred and assigned his controlling stock position to an unrelated third party but remained as the Company's sole executive officer/director. In connection with the August 2010 change in control, the convertible note payable to sole officer/director together with accrued interest was also verbally assigned to the new controlling shareholder. A written agreement was entered into between the Company and the controlling shareholder on December 31, 2013 to assign the $76,000 convertible promissory note to the controlling shareholder.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the outstanding note balance was $76,000 and accrued interest expense balance was $45,513 and $38,760, respectively.

On December 31, 2013, we issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $255,681 to our controlling shareholder. The note bears interest at the rate of 1% per annum until paid or the note and accrued interest is converted into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. The note was issued in consideration of cash advances made and for services provided to the Company by its former sole officer/director and an entity controlled by our sole officer/director, who was also the Company's previous controlling shareholder.

As of September 30, 2014, the outstanding note balance was $255,681 and accrued interest expense balance was $1,893.

In accordance Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC #815"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", we evaluated the holder's non-detachable conversion right provision and liquidated damages clause, contained in the terms governing the note to determine whether the features qualify as an embedded derivative instruments at issuance. Such non-detachable conversion right provision and liquidated damages clause did not need to be accounted as derivative financial instruments.

Note 5. Related Party Transactions

An entity controlled by the Company's sole officer/director provided corporate securities compliance services to the Company valued at $4,000 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, which was recorded as accrued expenses and is reflected in the statement of operations as general and administrative expenses.

Due Related Parties: Amounts due to related parties consist of advances made by our controlling shareholder for accounting fees and corporate regulatory compliance expenses provided by an entity controlled by the Company's sole officer/director. Such items due totaled $14,875 at September 30, 2014 and $0 at December 31, 2013.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

There are no pending or threatened legal proceedings as of September 30, 2014. The Company has no non-cancellable operating leases.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS Back to Table of Contents

Some of the statements contained in this quarterly report of American Biogenetic Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation discuss future expectations, contain projections of our plan of operation or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "continue," or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions.

General Background

American Biogenetic Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is sometimes referred to herein as "we", "us", "our", "Company" and the "Registrant". The Registrant was formed in 1983 for the purpose of researching, developing and marketing cardiovascular and neurobiology products for commercial development and distributing vaccines. The Registrant's products were designed for in vitro and in vivo diagnostic procedures and therapeutic drugs, and its products had been identified for use in the treatment of epilepsy, migraine and mania, neurodegenerative diseases, coronary artery diseases and cancer. The Registrant commenced selling its products during the last quarter of 1997 but did not generate any sufficient revenues from operations to fund its operating expenses.

On September 19, 2002, the Registrant filed a petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York. On November 4, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court approved an order authorizing a change in control and provided that the Company, subsequent to the bankruptcy proceeding, is free and clear of all liens, claims and other obligations.

On August 13, 2010, the Registrant's sole officer/director, who was also the principal shareholder, transferred and assigned his controlling stock position to an unrelated third party but remained as the Registrant's sole officer and director. On December 31, 2013, the convertible note to our sole officer/director was formally assigned to our controlling shareholder. See Note 4 to the Notes to Unaudited Interim Financial Statements.

Plan of Operation

We have no present operations or revenues and our current activities are related to seeking new business opportunities, including seeking an acquisition or merger with an operating company. If our management seeks to acquire another business or pursue a new business opportunity, it would have substantial flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective business. Registrant would not be obligated nor does management intend to seek pre-approval from our shareholders. Under the laws of the State of Delaware, the consent of holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares, acting without a shareholders' meeting, can approve an acquisition.

The Registrant is entirely dependent on the judgment of its executive officer/director in connection with pursuing a new business opportunity or a selection process for a target operating company. In evaluating a prospective new business opportunity or an operating company, he would consider, among other factors, the following: (i) costs associated with effecting a transaction; (ii) equity interest in and opportunity to control the prospective candidate; (iii) growth potential of the target business; (iv) experience and skill of management and availability of additional personnel; (v) necessary capital requirements; (vi) the prospective candidate's competitive position; (vii) stage of development of the business opportunity; (viii) the market acceptance of the business, its products or services; (ix) the availability of audited financial statements of the potential business opportunity; and (x) the regulatory environment that may be applicable to any prospective business opportunity.

The foregoing criteria are not intended to be exhaustive and there may be other criteria that management may deem relevant. In connection with an evaluation of a prospective or potential business opportunity, management may be expected to conduct a due diligence review.

Results of Operations during the three-month period ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the three-month period ended September 30, 2013

We have not generated any revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. We had operating expenses related to general and administrative expenses, being a public company, and interest expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, we incurred a net loss of $8,779 due to general and administrative expenses of $5,875 and interest expense of $2,904 compared to a net loss during the three months ended September 30, 2013 of $17,030 mainly due to general and administrative expenses of $14,750 and interest expense of $2,280.

Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $8,875 or 60% during the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year mainly due to a decrease in officer compensation expenses and office expenses. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, our interest expense was $2,904 as compared to $2,280 in the same period in the prior year and the increase was due to the conversion of advances made to the company into an interest bearing convertible note.

Results of Operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013

We have not generated any revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. We had operating expenses related to general and administrative expenses, being a public company, and interest expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we incurred a net loss of $28,896 due to general and administrative expenses of $20,250 and interest expense of $8,646 compared to a net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $52,840 mainly due to general and administrative expenses of $46,000 and interest expense of $6,840.

Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $25,750 or 56% during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year mainly due to a decrease in officer compensation expenses and office expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, our interest expense was $8,646 as compared to $6,840 in the same period in the prior year and the increase was due to the conversion of advances made to the company into an interest bearing convertible note.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We will use our limited personnel and financial resources in connection with seeking new business opportunities, including seeking an acquisition or merger with an operating company. It may be expected that entering into a new business opportunity or business combination will involve the issuance of a substantial number of restricted shares of common stock. If such additional restricted shares of common stock are issued, our shareholders will experience a dilution in their ownership interest in the Registrant. If a substantial number of restricted shares are issued in connection with a business combination, a change in control may be expected to occur.

On September 30, 2014, we had no assets and had total current liabilities of $401,587 consisting of $7,625 in accounts payable, two convertible notes totaling $331,681, $47,406 in accrued interest and $14,875 in advances from and accruals due to related party.

We financed our operating expenses through advances from our controlling shareholder.

In connection with our plan to seek new business opportunities and/or effecting a business combination, we may determine to seek to raise funds from the sale of restricted stock or debt securities. We have no agreements to issue any debt or equity securities and cannot predict whether equity or debt financing will become available at terms acceptable to us, if at all.

There are no limitations in our articles of incorporation on our ability to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted common stock to effect a business combination. Our limited resources may make it difficult to borrow funds or raise capital. Our inability to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted common stock required to effect or facilitate a business combination may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and future prospects, including the ability to complete a business combination. To the extent that debt financing ultimately proves to be available, any borrowing will subject us to various risks traditionally associated with indebtedness, including the risks of interest rate fluctuations and insufficiency of cash flow to pay principal and interest, including debt of an acquired business.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Back to Table of Contents

We have not entered into, and do not expect to enter into, financial instruments for trading or hedging purposes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Back to Table of Contents

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of September 30, 2014, the Company's chief executive officer/chief financial officer conducted an evaluation regarding the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our chief executive officer/chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the date of filing this quarterly report due to lack of an oversight committee and a lack of segregation of duties. Management will consider the need to add personnel and implement improved review procedures.

Changes in internal controls. During the quarterly period covered by this report, no changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
