PART I

 

Item 1. Business.

 

Company History

 

Valley High Mining Company (“we,” “us,”, “our,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Utah on November 14, 1979, under the name Valley High Oil, Gas & Minerals, Inc. (“Valley High Oil”), for the purpose of engaging in the energy, mining and natural resources business. In order to raise the money necessary to acquire, explore and develop oil and gas properties and other natural resource-related ventures or projects, we undertook an offering of our common stock pursuant to the Regulation A exemption from registration afforded under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, wherein we offered and sold a total of 25 million common shares at a price of two cents ($0.02) per share and received gross proceeds of $500,000 from over 1,000 subscribers. These funds were utilized in our attempt to acquire and explore for oil and gas, uranium, coal, geothermal, and other mineral (metallic and nonmetallic) properties.

 

Between 1980 and 1985, we spent nearly all of our capital on several natural resource and mining ventures. In 1985, we effectuated a 10:1 reverse split. By 1986, after engaging in several unsuccessful ventures, we exhausted our capital reserves. From April 1989 through 2003, we were dormant, doing only those actions necessary to allow the Company to remain as an active entity. In April 2004, pursuant to the affirmative vote of our shareholders we reincorporated into the State of Nevada by merging with a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary company under the name Valley High Mining Company (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger, among other things, for every 35 shares of Valley High Oil, a shareholder was entitled to receive one (1) share of Valley High Mining Company, a Nevada corporation, the surviving entity in the Merger.

 

On April 19, 2004, the day that the Merger was effective, we entered into a mining lease agreement with North Beck Joint Venture, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (”North Beck”), an entity owned and controlled by our then principal shareholder and officer/director. The terms of the lease consideration were based upon prior lease agreements that North Beck Joint Venture had entered into with other mining companies in the past. As a result, we acquired control of over 470 acres of patented precious metals mining claims located adjacent to, and just west of, the town of Eureka in Juab County, Utah, in the so-called “Tintic Mining District” (the “North Beck Claims”). The Tintic Mining District of Juab County, Utah, is located approximately 100 miles south of Salt Lake City. The North Beck Claims have an extensive history and contain several mines, mining shafts or "prospecting pits," two of which are over 1,000 feet deep. This project also proved to be unsuccessful. As a result, in February, 2010, control of our Company changed again, with the business objective to seek a suitable acquisition candidate through acquisition, merger, reverse merger or other suitable business combination method. We disposed of the North Beck Claims in connection with the change in control.

 

Until September 2012, our then management continued to seek a suitable acquisition candidate, without success. On September 8, 2012, we executed a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Joint Venture”) with Corizona Mining Partners LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (“Corizona”). Prior, on July 20, 2012, the Company and Corizona formed a limited liability company, Minera Carabamba S.A. pursuant to the laws of Peru. The Joint Venture acquired a 50% leasehold interest in a property of approximately 966 hectares, located in La Libertad, Peru, in order to conduct gold mining operations on the property under the project name of Machacala. On March 1, 2013, the Company advised Corizona that we were no longer interested in continuing with our role in the Joint Venture due to the inability to gain access to the property.  

 

Also during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, we reviewed a second possible venture with Corizona.  They introduced us to a second property located in Peru and on October 5, 2012, we executed a letter of intent (“LOI”) to develop this project, which consisted of a 50% aggregate interest.  The LOI provided for us to initially own 80% of the venture, with Corizona owning the remaining 20%.  We agreed to pay the costs of developing the project, which was estimated to be approximately $500,000, subject to our due diligence.  We performed our due diligence on this project and discovered that it was not in production, despite representations to the contrary.  We also could not reach an agreement with Corizona on a budget for this project.  As a result, we elected to terminate this venture.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we also formed a wholly owned subsidiary, VH Energy, Inc., a Texas corporation, which was formed with the intention of engaging in the oil and gas industry.  We initially engaged in a venture which involved the brokerage of diesel fuel, which failed to close.  We have commenced legal action against various parties involved in this transaction, however the matter is closed.  See “Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings,” below.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company began to identify new underserved and emerging industries to move into and discovered an increasing demand for fresher locally grown organic foods. The demand for organic food rose 11% between 2011 and 2012, reaching $28 billion and the market is now predicted to grow at a 14% annual rate for the next four years. As a result, the Company determined to transition into the organic foods market and on December 4, 2014, the Company completed the purchase of a fully contained grow environment, or grow pod, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Bill of Sale. This grow pod is a template for many to be built and deployed into culture centers (between 20 and 40 pods). The grow pod is a steel shipping container converted to be self-contained, insulated, solarized, bug free, pesticide free, heated, cooled, LED lighted hydroponic growing facilities that can be managed from a computer or phone. Each of our pods requires only seven to ten hours of attending weekly. Our pods are capable of growing leafy green vegetables, herbs, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and certain types of berries all year without regard to weather and free from pests and disease. These crops may be harvested up to thirty times a year.

Government Regulations

 

Domestic mineral exploration operations are subject to extensive federal regulation and, with respect to federal leases, to interruption or termination by governmental authorities on account of environmental and other considerations.  The trend towards stricter standards in environmental legislation and regulation could increase our costs and others in the industry.  Mineral lessees are subject to liability for the costs of clean-up of pollution resulting from a lessee’s operations, and may also be subject to liability for pollution damages.  We intend to obtain insurance against costs of clean-up operations, but we have no such insurance at this time and it is unlikely that we will be able to fully insure against all such risks.

 

Estimate of the Amount Spent on Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were $0 and $0 in 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Employees

 

As of April 14, 2015, we have three (3) full-time employees, our Chief Executive Officer, President, and Chief Financial Officer. For the foreseeable future, we intend to use the services of independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services.

 

Competition

 

The mineral exploration business is an extremely competitive industry. We are competing with many other exploration companies looking for minerals, most of whom have greater financial, operational and administrative resources than we currently have available, or will have available in the foreseeable future. We are a very early stage mineral exploration company and a very small participant in the mineral exploration business. Additionally, we expect to have to compete for resources such as professional geologists, camp staff, helicopters and mineral exploration supplies.

 

Growth in organic agricultural production is taking place in both developed and developing countries worldwide, and the competition for major consumer markets in developed countries is increasing. U.S. producers have been challenged to keep pace with growing consumer demand for organic products for over a decade, and new statistics from the U.S. Department of Commerce show that organic imports play a key role in meeting U.S. demand. Many of the top imported organic products are tropical and subtropical crops, including bananas and coffee, which the U.S. does not produce in large quantities. However, among all organic product imports lettuce, a primary crop we are targeting, is the fastest growing.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Risks Relating to Our Business and Company

 

We have a limited operating history from which you can evaluate our performance.

 

Since we have a limited operating history, it will be difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our business and prospects and predict future revenue. Because we have a limited operating history, we will encounter risks, expenses and difficulties of which we are unaware, and may be challenging to overcome. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will reach profitability.

 

OUR CURRENT CASH WILL NOT BE SUFFICIENT TO FUND OUR BUSINESS AS CURRENTLY PLANNED FOR THE NEXT 12 MONTHS. WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FUNDING, EITHER THROUGH EQUITY OR DEBT FINANCINGS OR PARTNERING ARRANGEMENTS THAT COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT US AND OUR STOCK PRICE.

 

We will need significant additional funds to continue operations, which we may not be able to obtain. We estimate that we must raise approximately $500,000 over the next 12 months to fund our anticipated capital requirements and obligations.  Although we have entered into an equity line which may provide a substantial portion of the funds needed, there is no assurance that all of such funds will be available when needed for our operations.

 

We have historically satisfied our working capital requirements through the private issuances of equity securities and convertible notes.  We will continue to seek additional funds through such channels and from collaboration and other arrangements with corporate partners.  However, we may not be able to obtain adequate funds when needed or funding that is on terms acceptable to us. If we fail to obtain sufficient funds, we may need to delay, scale back or terminate some or all of our mining exploration programs.

 

BECAUSE WE ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON OUR KEY EXECUTIVE OFFICERS FOR THE SUCCESS OF OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND MAY BE DEPENDENT ON THE EFFORTS AND RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PRINCIPALS OF FUTURE ACQUISITIONS AND MERGERS, IF ANY OF THESE INDIVIDUALS BECOME UNABLE TO CONTINUE IN THEIR ROLE, OUR BUSINESS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

 

We believe our success will depend, to a significant extent, on the efforts and abilities of Richard Johnson, our Chief Executive Officer, and Peter Bianchi, our President. If we lost Mr. Johnson and/or Mr. Bianchi, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement(s), which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion of limited working capital. We can give you no assurance that we could find a satisfactory replacement for Mr. Johnson or Mr. Bianchi at all, or on terms that are not unduly expensive or burdensome.

 

6
 

 

If we grow and implement our business plan, we will need to add managerial talent to support our business plan. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in adding such managerial talent. These professionals are regularly recruited by other companies and may choose to change companies. Given our relatively small size compared to some of our competitors, the performance of our business may be more adversely affected than our competitors would be if we lose well-performing employees and are unable to attract new ones.

 

BECAUSE OF THE SPECULATIVE NATURE OF MINERAL PROPERTY EXPLORATION, THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL RISK THAT NO COMMERCIALLY EXPLOITABLE MINERALS WILL BE FOUND AND OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.

 

Exploration for minerals is a speculative venture involving substantial risk.  We cannot provide investors with any assurance that our claims and properties contain commercially exploitable reserves.  The exploration work that we intend to conduct on our claims or properties may not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of minerals.  Problems such as unusual and unexpected rock formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts.  In such a case, our business may fail.

 

JOINT VENTURES AND OTHER PARTNERSHIPS IN RELATION TO OUR PROPERTIES MAY EXPOSE US TO RISKS.

 

In the future we may enter into joint ventures or other partnership arrangements with other parties in relation to the exploration, development and production of the properties in which we have an interest.  Joint ventures can often require unanimous approval of the parties to the joint venture or their representatives for certain fundamental decisions such as an increase or reduction of registered capital, merger, division, dissolution, amendments of documents, and the pledge of joint venture assets, which means that each joint venture party may have a veto right with respect to such decisions which would lead to deadlock in the operations of the joint venture or partnership.  Further, we may be unable to exert control over strategic decision made in respect of such properties. Any failure of such other companies to meet their obligations to us or to third parties, or any disputes with respect to the parties’ respective rights and obligations, could have a material adverse effect on the joint ventures or their properties and, therefore, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial performance, cash flows and share price.

 

We need to manage growth in operations to maximize our potential growth and achieve our expected revenues. Our failure to manage growth can cause a disruption of our operations that may result in the failure to generate revenues at levels we expect.

 

In order to maximize potential growth in our current markets, we may have to expand our operations. Such expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial controls, operating procedures and management information systems. We will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our failure to manage our growth could disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent us from generating the revenues we expect.

 

Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders want it to occur.

 

As of the date of this filing, our executive officers, directors, and principal stockholders who beneficially own 5% or more of our outstanding common stock, own in the aggregate, approximately 75% of our outstanding common stock. These stockholders are able to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with our Company even if our other stockholders want it to occur.

Risks Relating to the Industry

 

PLANNED EXPLORATION, AND IF WARRANTED, DEVELOPMENT AND MINING ACTIVITIES INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.

 

We cannot assure you of the success of our planned operations.  Exploration costs are not fixed, and resources cannot be reliably identified until substantial development has taken place, which entails high exploration and development costs.  The costs of mining, processing, development and exploitation activities are subject to numerous variables that could result in substantial cost overruns.  Mining for silver and other base or precious metals may involve unprofitable efforts, not only from dry properties, but from properties that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues to return a profit after accounting for mining, operating and other costs.

 

Our operations may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including economic conditions, mechanical problems, title problems, weather conditions, compliance with governmental requirements and shortages or delays of equipment and services.  If our drilling activities are not successful, we will experience a material adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition.

 

There is a substantial risk that the properties that we drill will not eventually be productive or may decline in productivity over time. We do not insure against all risks associated with our business because insurance is either unavailable or its cost of coverage is prohibitive.  The occurrence of an event that is not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

 

THE IMPACT OF GOVERNMENT REGULATION COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

 

Our business is subject to applicable domestic and foreign laws and regulations, including laws and regulations on taxation, exploration, and environmental and safety matters.  Many laws and regulations require drilling permits and govern the spacing of mines, rates of production, prevention of waste and other matters.  These laws and regulations may increase the costs and timing of planning, designing, drilling, installing, operating and abandoning our mines and other facilities. In addition, our operations are subject to complex environmental laws and regulations adopted by domestic and foreign jurisdictions where we operate.  We could incur liability to governments or third parties for any unlawful discharge of pollutants into the air, soil or water, including responsibility for remedial costs.

 

THE SUBMISSION AND APPROVAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENTS MAY BE REQUIRED.

 

Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that means stricter standards; enforcement, fines and penalties for noncompliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.

 

Because the requirements imposed by these laws and regulations frequently change, we cannot assure you that laws and regulations enacted in the future, including changes to existing laws and regulations, will not adversely affect our business.  In addition, because we acquire interests in properties that have been operated in the past by others, we may be liable for environmental damage caused by former operators.

 

DECLINE IN MINERAL PRICES MAY MAKE IT COMMERCIALLY INFEASIBLE FOR US TO DEVELOP OUR PROPERTY AND MAY CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.

 

The value and price of your investment in our common shares, our financial results, and our exploration, development and mining activities may be significantly adversely affected by declines in the price of minerals and other precious metals. Mineral prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control such as interest rates, exchange rates, inflation or deflation, fluctuation in the value of the United States dollar and foreign currencies, global and regional supply and demand, and the political and economic conditions of mineral-producing countries throughout the world.  The price of minerals fluctuates in response to many factors, which are beyond anyone’s prediction abilities.  The prices used in making the estimates in our plans differ from daily prices quoted in the news media.  Because mining occurs over a number of years, it may be prudent to continue mining for some periods during which cash flows are temporarily negative for a variety of reasons.  Such reasons include a belief that the low price is temporary, and/or the expense incurred is greater when permanently closing a mine.

 

8
 

 

WE MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF THE SUPPLIES AND MATERIALS WE NEED TO BEGIN EXPLORATION, WHICH COULD CAUSE US TO DELAY OR SUSPEND OPERATIONS.

 

Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies such as dynamite as well as certain equipment like bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration.  If we cannot obtain the necessary supplies, we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do obtain such supplies.

 

Risks Relating to Being a Public Company

 

We will incur significant costs to ensure compliance with United States corporate governance and accounting requirements.

 

We will incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements and costs associated with corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the SEC. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) or as executive officers. We may be wrong in our prediction or estimate of the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

 

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results or prevent fraud may be adversely affected and investor confidence may be adversely impacted.

 

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX 404, the SEC adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports. Under current SEC rules, our management may conclude that our internal controls over our financial reporting are not effective. Even if our management concludes that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us. In the event that we are unable to have effective internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

OUR COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS, WHICH MAY HAVE AN UNFAVORABLE IMPACT ON OUR STOCK PRICE AND LIQUIDITY.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Pink may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

 

THERE IS LIMITED LIQUIDITY ON THE OTC PINK, WHICH ENCHANCES THE VOLATILE NATURE OF OUR EQUITY.

 

When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTC Pink, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in shares of our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood that orders for shares of our common stock will be executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price that was quoted at the time of entry of the order.

 

9
 

 

OUR COMMON STOCK IS CONSIDERED A “PENNY STOCK,” AND IS SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL SALE AND TRADING REGULATIONS THAT MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.

 

Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” since it does not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of “penny stock” under Section 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. Our common stock is a “penny stock” because it meets one or more of the following conditions (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) is issued by a company that has been in business less than three years with net tangible assets less than $5 million.

 

The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

 

We are subject to the penny stock rules which will make our securities more difficult to sell.

 

We are subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules because our securities sell below $5.00 per share.  The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  In addition, the bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.

 

Furthermore, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, 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.  The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for our securities.  As long as our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such securities will find it more difficult to sell their securities.

 

In order to raise sufficient funds to expand our operations, we may have to issue additional securities at prices which may result in substantial dilution to our shareholders.

 

If we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt, our current stockholders’ percentage ownership will be reduced. In addition, these transactions may dilute the value of our common shares outstanding. We may also have to issue securities that may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock.

We are not likely to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. Accordingly, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but will review this policy as circumstances dictate.

 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 2. Properties.

 

Our former principal place of business was located at 12835 E Arapahoe Road, Tower 1 Penthouse #810, Centennial, CO 80112, where we relocated in October 2012. Our former space consisted of approximately 1,000 square feet of executive office space and required a monthly rent of $200.

 

Effective March 1, 2014, the Company relocated and currently subleases, from a company under the control of our Chief Financial Officer, approximately 1,000 square feet of executive office space 4550 NW Newberry Hill, Road, Suite 202, Silverdale, WA 98383 at a rate of $1,000 per month on a month to month basis. The monthly rent at this location was reduced to $500 per month effective December 1, 2014.

 

Effective December 1, 2014, the Company relocated its headquarters to 10777 Westheimer Road, Suite 1100, Houston, TX 77042, where we rent executive suites on a monthly basis at $1,600 per month.

 

Effective December 1, 2014, the Company rents yard space in Houston, Texas for its grow pods from an individual on a month to month basis at a rate of $450 per month.

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

 

In October 2013, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against Gandolf Holdings, Inc. (“Gandolf”), Cox General Accounting, Inc. and Brian Cox, individually, Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-02959-MSK, to recover the principal amount of $75,000 which the Company put on deposit as part of the terms of a fuel brokerage transaction.  The relevant agreement required the Company to deposit $75,000 to cover the storage fees applicable to the sale of 119 million gallons of diesel fuel.  These funds were to be held in trust until such time as the buyer of the fuel tested the fuel to insure that the quality was satisfactory.  Once the buyer confirmed that the quality was acceptable, these funds were to be used for storage of the fuel pending closing.  If the quality was not satisfactory to the buyer, the agreement provided for return of these funds to the Company.

 

After the Company paid the $75,000, upon information and belief, Brian Cox, who was then the Chief Financial Officer of Gandolf, authorized the release of the funds without the Company’s consent.  Also upon information and belief, the sale of the fuel was not consummated.  Brian Cox ceased all communication with the Company at that time.  The Company contacted Gandolf, who agreed to execute a demand promissory note for the $75,000 in favor of the Company.  In September 2013, the Company tendered a demand upon Gandolf to repay these funds. Gandolf failed and refused to pay the Company pursuant to the note.

 

The Company successfully served the complaint upon Gandolf, but has been unable to locate Brian Cox or Cox General Accounting, Inc.  Gandolf failed to answer the complaint within the prescribed time period, and in December 2013, the Company filed a Motion for Default with the court.  In March 2014, the Company assigned the judgement to our former CEO, Andrew Telsey, as part of a settlement agreement with him.

 

In March 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a third party.  A dispute arose with respect to the Company’s performance under such settlement agreement and, in accordance with the terms of such agreement, such party moved for arbitration to resolve such dispute. The matter is still open, however, a preliminary agreement was reached in April 2015 during arbitration, pending final documentation. The Company has recorded a contingent liability in the amount of $125,000 to account for liability they will likely incur.

THESE STATEMENTS INVOLVE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND OTHER FACTORS THAT MAY CAUSE OUR ACTUAL RESULTS, LEVELS OF ACTIVITY, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS TO BE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT FROM ANY FUTURE RESULTS, LEVELS OF ACTIVITY, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE RISKS AND OTHER FACTORS INCLUDE, AMONG OTHERS, THOSE LISTED UNDER “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS” AND “RISK FACTORS” AND THOSE INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.

 

Plan of Operation

 

As of the date of this Report we are a mining company that is currently seeking a viable prospect to develop and have begun to diversify into the organic food market. We are not limiting our search to any specific geographic region. Our plan of operation for the twelve months following the date of this annual report is to continue to review potential acquisitions in the resource and agricultural sectors. Currently, we are in the process of completing due diligence investigation of various opportunities in the agricultural sector. We do not have enough funds on hand to cover our administrative expenses for the next 12 months. We will need to raise funds for administration as well as additional funding for the review, acquisition and development of property once the same is identified. We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or debt financing. Relevant thereto, as of the date of this Report we are engaged in a private offering of our common stock.

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of Results of Operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

 

Total expenses, which included general and administrative expenses for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 were $514,001, compared to $165,339 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $348,662. This increase included increases in administrative expenses of $25,000, management expense of $353,000, professional fees of $80,805, and general and administrate expense of $7,050. This was offset by decreases in payroll expense of $111,084.

 

13
 

 

As a result, we incurred a net loss of $692,723 (approximately $0.03 per share) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, compared to a net loss of $198,473 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 (approximately $0.01 per share).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2014, we had cash or cash equivalents of $63.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $253,888 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $209,067 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Cash flows provided or used in investing activities were $129,000 used for the year ended December 31, 2014 and $9,700 provided during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Net cash flows provided or used by financing activities was $382,951 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $194,265 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

 

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, certain of our shareholders provided us with loans aggregating $53,919. During this same time we closed out related party loans and advances and recorded them as contingent liabilities. These loans carry interest of between 6% and 8% and are due upon demand within the next 12 months. We utilized these funds from these loans to cover operating expenses during the fiscal year. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 we repaid $225,329 in related party loans.

 

Inflation

 

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Leases – We follow the guidance in SFAS No. 13 “Accounting for Leases,” as amended, which requires us to evaluate the lease agreements we enter into to determine whether they represent operating or capital leases at the inception of the lease.

 

14
 

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards – As of November 1, 2011, we adopted new guidance on the testing of goodwill impairment that allows the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether performing the two step goodwill impairment assessment is necessary. Under the option, the calculation of the reporting unit's fair value is not required to be performed unless as a result of the qualitative assessment, it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the unit's carrying amount. The adoption of this guidance impacts testing steps only, and therefore adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements. As of November 1, 2011, we adopted new guidance regarding disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures related to activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance requires purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements to be presented separately in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued during 2010 and 2011, none of which are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any 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 and would be considered material to investors.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.

 

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

 

Our financial statements are contained in pages F-1 through F-12 which appear at the end of this Annual Report.

 

15
 

 

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure and Control Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer/ Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

 

These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO/CFO to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, our CEO/CFO has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2014, at the reasonable assurance level. We believe that our financial statements presented in this annual report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.

 

(b) Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Those rules define internal control over financial reporting as a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
   
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
   
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 

Based on management’s assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

16
 

 

Inherent Limitations

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

 

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships among our directors, executive officers, or persons nominated or chosen by the Company to become directors or executive officers. None of our directors or executive officers or their respective immediate family members or affiliates are indebted to us.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

We do not have a standing nominating, compensation or audit committee.  Rather, our full Board performs the functions of these committees. Also, we do not have a “audit committee financial expert” on our Board as that term is defined by Item 401(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. We do not believe it is necessary for our Board to appoint such committees because the volume of matters that come before our board of directors for consideration permits the directors to give sufficient time and attention to such matters to be involved in all decision making. Additionally, because our Common Stock is not listed for trading or quotation on a national securities exchange, we are not required to have such committees.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to our present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

 

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own 10% or more of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all reports filed by them in compliance with Section 16(a).

 

Based solely on our review of certain reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the reports required to be filed with respect to transactions in our common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, were timely.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

 

Related Transactions

 

During years 2013 and part of 2014, the Company subleased from Andrew I. Telsey, P.C. our former principal place of business, which consisted of approximately 1,000 square feet of executive office space for a monthly rate of $200, pursuant to an oral agreement approved by then our principal shareholder.  Andrew Telsey, our then sole director and officer, is the owner of Andrew I. Telsey, P.C.  The Company also reimbursed Andrew I. Telsey, P.C. for all out of pocket expenses incurred on a monthly basis.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company repaid $225,329 in related party advances.

 

Effective March 1, 2014, the Company subleases, from a company under the control of our Chief Financial Officer, approximately 1,000 square feet of executive office space located at 4550 NW Newberry Hill Road, Suite 202, Silverdale, WA 98383, at a rate of $1,000 per month on a month to month basis. Effective December 1, 2014, the monthly rent was reduced to $500.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company borrowed $15,919 in related party advances.

 

On December 4, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement and Bill of Sale by and between the Company, as purchaser, and our CEO, as seller, pursuant to which the Company purchased certain machinery and equipment in exchange for 16,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

There are no other related party transactions that are required to be disclosed pursuant to Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Director Independence

 

The common stock of the Company is currently quoted on the OTC Pink, quotation systems which currently do not have director independence requirements. On an annual basis, each director and executive officer will be obligated to disclose any transactions with the Company in which a director or executive officer, or any member of his or her immediate family, have a direct or indirect material interest in accordance with Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K. Following completion of these disclosures, the Board will make an annual determination as to the independence of each director using the current standards for “independence” that satisfy the criteria for the Nasdaq. The Board has determined that there are no members that are independent under such standards.

 

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Valley High Mining Company:

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Valley High Mining Company (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit 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 opinions. 

 

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Valley High Mining Company, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

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 Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

VALLEY HIGH MINING COMPANY

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization

 

Valley High Mining Company (“the Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Utah on November 14, 1979 as Valley High Oil, Gas & Minerals, Inc.  In April 2004, the Company reincorporated into the state of Nevada by merging with Valley High Mining Company, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which was incorporated on February 27, 2004.  The Nevada corporation was the surviving entity. The Company is considered to have re-entered into the exploration stage on April 19, 2004.  The Company has not generated any revenues and is considered to be an exploration stage company according to the provisions of Industry Guide 7.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at 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.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of ASC Topic No. 740, the Company recognized no liability for unrecognized tax liabilities. The Company has no tax positions at December 31, 2014 and 2013 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax liabilities in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized interest accruals of $4,868 and $8,416, respectively.

The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC Topic No. 260, “Earnings Per Share.”

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our financial statements. The Company’s management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

On June 10, 2014, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, consolidation, which removes all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915 from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. For the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2014, the presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for the public business entities. The revised consolidation standards are effective one year later, in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted the amendment as of fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

There are several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB which are not yet effective. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. As of December 30, 2014, none of these pronouncements is expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

The FASB periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements.  During this review the Company decided to early adopt ASU 2014-10 which eliminates the definition of a development stage entity, eliminates the development stage presentation and disclosure requirements under ASC 915, and amends provisions of existing variable interest entity guidance under ASC 810.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, amounts due to a related party, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and derivative liabilities. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, establish a framework for measuring fair value, establish a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. 

 

F-6
 

 

The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund its business needs, including warrants not indexed to the Company’s stock. The Company is required to record its derivative instruments at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

 

The fair value of the derivative instruments are determined based on “Level 3” inputs, which consist of inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

 

The Company has categorized its financial instruments, based on the priority of inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy.  The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

 

Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

 

Level 1   Financial assets and liabilities for which values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that management has the ability to access.

 

Level 2   Financial assets and liabilities for which values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (commodity derivatives and interest rate swaps).

 

Level 3   Financial assets and liabilities for which values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.  These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

When the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  The Company conducts a review of fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis.  Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. 

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit and has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.

 

These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it consummates a business combination. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

 

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.

Net changes to asset – fye 12/31/2013   (9,700)
Mineral Properties – 12/31/2013   304,870 
Less: termination of venture   (304,870)
Mineral Properties – 12/31/2014  $-

NOTE 6 – INVESTMENT RECEIVABLE

 

In June 2014, the Company entered into a Regulation S Stock Purchase Agreement with a third party for the investment and purchase of $225,000 in common stock of the Company at $0.015 per share. After the 6 month term of the agreement expired without execution of the investment by the third party, the Company canceled the agreement and canceled the underlying shares on December 2014.

 

In December 2014, the Company entered into a Regulation S Stock Purchase Agreement with a second third party for the investment and purchase of $350,000 in common stock of the Company at $0.0175 per share. As of the date of the filing the investor had not initiated the investment due to deposit issues with the stock. The Company and investor have extended the agreement an additional 6 months to allow for the deposit and full execution of the agreement.

 

NOTE 7 – FIX ASSETS AND IMPAIRMENTS

 

In December 2014, the Company acquired a Grow Pod in exchange for 16,125,000 shares of common stock. At the time of the transaction, the common stock of the Company was valued at $0.008 per share for a total booked asset of $129,000. Subsequently, the Company impaired the asset to its current replacement cost valued at $50,000 based on estimates from contractors. The difference between the purchase price and the replacement cost is attributed to the intellectual property applied to the configuration of the asset. The transaction was accounted for as follows:

 

Purchase of asset  $129,000 
Less: Impairment   (79,000)
Value of asset as of 12/31/2014  $50,000 

 

NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE AND DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

Notes Payable

 

At fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, the Company had third party notes payable and accrued interest in the amount of $72,366.82 compared to $0 in the prior fiscal year. The notes included notes to four unaffiliated parties at interest rates of between 6% and 8% per year. The notes expire during the 2015 fiscal year and are not secured by collateral of the Company. The notes are convertible into common stock, at the election of the holder, at discounts of between 40% and 50%. Two additional notes, totaling $22,500.00 are convertible into common stock of the Company at $0.001.

 

Derivative Liability

 

The Company entered into an agreement which has been accounted for as a derivative.  The Company has recorded a loss contingency associated with this agreement because it is both probable that a liability had been incurred and the amount of the loss can reasonably be estimated.   The main factors that will affect the fair value of the derivative are the number of the Company’s shares outstanding post acquisition or post offering and the resulting market capitalization.

 

ASC Topic 815 (“ASC 815”) requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.

 

F-9
 

 

The Company issued warrants and has evaluated the terms and conditions of the conversion features contained in the warrants to determine whether they represent embedded or freestanding derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC 815. The Company determined that the conversion features contained in the warrants represent freestanding derivative instruments that meet the requirements for liability classification under ASC 815. As a result, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments in the warrants is reflected in the Company’s balance sheet as a liability. The fair value of the derivative financial instruments of the warrants was measured at the inception date of the warrants and each subsequent balance sheet date. Any changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date.

 

The Company valued the conversion features in its warrants using the Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes model values the embedded derivatives based on a risk-free rate of return of 0.00%, grant dates at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, the term of the warrant extending 3 years from the date of a “reverse merger”, conversion of warrant shares is equal to 0.005% of the then outstanding common stock of the company, the conversion price is $0.001, current stock prices on the measurement date ranging from $0.0081 to $1.02, and the computed measure of the Company’s stock volatility, ranging from 264% to 457%. 

 

 

Included in the December 31, 2014 and 2013 financial statements is a derivative liability in the amount of $6,233 and $337,797, respectively, to account for this transaction. It is revalued quarterly henceforth and adjusted as a gain or loss to the consolidated statements of operations depending on its value at that time.

 

Included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 are $331,564 and ($8,404) in change of fair value of derivative in non-cash charges pertaining to the derivative liability as it pertains to the gain (loss) on derivative liability and debt discount, respectively.

 

Derivative Liability

 

 

   December 31, 2014   December 31, 2013 
Estimated number of underlying shares   441,228    84,467 
Estimated market price per share  $0.0142   $4.00 
Exercise price per share  $0.001   $0.001 
Expected volatility   457%   190%
Expected dividends   0%   0%
Expected term (in years)   3.00    3.00 

 

The following presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2014.  These items are included in “derivative liability” on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

   Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis 
   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total 
December 31, 2013                
Liabilities:                
Derivative liability  $-   $-   $337,797   $337,797 
                     
Total liabilities at fair value  $-   $-   $337,797   $337,797 
                     
December 31, 2014                    
Liabilities:                    
Derivative liability  $-   $-   $6,233   $6,233 
                     
Total liabilities at fair value  $-   $-   $6,233   $6,233 

 

The main factors that will affect the fair value of the derivative are the number of shares outstanding post acquisition or post offering and the resulting market capitalization. In order to estimate a range for the potential contingent liability, the Company estimated the future number of surviving shares and resulting market cap from a reverse merger based on a sample of reverse mergers completed by OTCBB companies during 2010 and 2011.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

   2014   2013 
Beginning balance, January 1,  $(337,797)  $(313,079)
Total gains (losses) included in earnings   331,564    (24,718)

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued 16,125,000 shares of common stock for the purchase of assets valued at $129,000.

 

NOTE 11 – SHARES RESERVED FOR ISSUANCE

 

In December 2014, we entered into an agreement with Lazgro Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (1010158-V) (“Lazgro”), under which Lazgro has agreed to purchase from us, under a Regulation S Stock Purchase Agreement, 20,000,000 shares of our common stock, up to $350,000, during an initial six month period (which has been extended for an additional six months) commencing on December 22, 2014. We will sell these shares to Lazgro at a price equal to $0.0175 per share. As part of the agreement with Lazgro, we transferred 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to Lazgro. We will receive proceeds when Lazgro is able to sell these shares. If Lazgro does not sell any all or a portion of the shares during the Agreement period, these shares will be returned to us at the end of the 12 month extended contractual period, as Lazgro would not have legally possession of the shares. Accordingly, there is a ($20,000) impact to Paid-in capital to account for the stock issuance until such time that the Company either receives the proceeds of the sale of the stock is returned to the Company.

NOTE 12- INCOME TAXES

 

ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company’s opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has been recorded. The total deferred tax asset is calculated by multiplying a 34% marginal tax rate by the cumulative net operating losses of $942,225. The total valuation allowance is equal to the total deferred tax asset.

 

The tax effects of significant items comprising the Company's net deferred taxes as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:  

 

   2014   2013 
Cumulative net operating losses  $942,225   $252,402 
Deferred tax assets: (34% Federal, 0% Nevada)          
Net operating loss carry forwards   320,357    85,816 
Valuation allowance   (320,357)   (85,816)
   $-   $- 

 

F-11
 

 

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the combined U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 34% to pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 due to the following:

 

   2014   2013 
Tax benefit at statutory rate  $(248,738)  $(66,631)
Common stock for services   221,250    142,404 
(Gain) loss on derivative liability   (331,564)   8,404 
Debt discount   -    - 
Change in valuation allowance   359,052    84,177 
Actual tax expense  $-   $- 

 

The Company’s net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $942,225 expire in various years through 2034. The Company has not evaluated the impact of possible limitations on the utilization of its net operating loss carry forwards in future years under Section 382, if any, as a result of any changes in control.

 

NOTE 13- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Contingent Liabilities

 

The Company recorded contingent liabilities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 in the amount of $275,200.05. The contingent liability includes $125,000 for settlement of an arbitration dispute as further defined below. Additional contingent liabilities has been accounted for in the amount of $150,200.05 for notes payable. These notes date back to the purchase of the mineral properties with a related party. The Company believes that these notes are to be discharged, however, until additional research and agreements have been reached, the Company is treating the amount as a contingent liability.

 

In March 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a third party.  A dispute arose with respect to the Company’s performance under such settlement agreement and, in accordance with the terms of such agreement, such party moved for arbitration to resolve such dispute. The matter is still open, however, a preliminary agreement was reached in April 2015 during arbitration, pending final documentation. The Company has recorded a contingent liability in the amount of $125,000 to account for liability they will likely incur.

 

Legal proceedings

 

In October 2013, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against Gandolf Holdings, Inc. (“Gandolf”), Cox General Accounting, Inc. and Brian Cox, individually, Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-02959-MSK, to recover the principal amount of $75,000 which the Company put on deposit as part of the terms of a fuel brokerage transaction.  The relevant agreement required the Company to deposit $75,000 to cover the storage fees applicable to the sale of 119 million gallons of diesel fuel.  These funds were to be held in trust until such time as the buyer of the fuel tested the fuel to insure that the quality was satisfactory.  Once the buyer confirmed that the quality was acceptable, these funds were to be used for storage of the fuel pending closing.  If the quality was not satisfactory to the buyer, the agreement provided for return of these funds to the Company.

 

After the Company paid the $75,000, upon information and belief, Brian Cox, who was then the Chief Financial Officer of Gandolf, authorized the release of the funds without the Company’s consent.  Also upon information and belief, the sale of the fuel was not consummated.  Brian Cox ceased all communication with the Company at that time.  The Company contacted Gandolf, who agreed to execute a demand promissory note for the $75,000 in favor of the Company.  In September 2013, the Company tendered a demand upon Gandolf to repay these funds. Gandolf failed and refused to pay the Company pursuant to the note.

 

The Company successfully served the complaint upon Gandolf, but has been unable to locate Brian Cox or Cox General Accounting, Inc.  Gandolf failed to answer the complaint within the prescribed time period, and in December 2013, the Company filed a Motion for Default with the court.  In March 2014, the Company assigned the judgement to our former CEO, Andrew Telsey, as part of a settlement agreement with him.

 

In March 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a third party.  A dispute arose with respect to the Company’s performance under such settlement agreement and, in accordance with the terms of such agreement, such party moved for arbitration to resolve such dispute. The matter is still, however, a preliminary agreement was reached in April 2015 during arbitration, pending final documentation. The Company has recorded a contingent liability in the amount of $125,000 to account for liability they will likely incur.

 

F-12
 

 

Derivative Liability

 

As described in Note 6, the Company entered into a warrant agreement which has been accounted for as a derivative.  The Company has accrued a loss contingency associated with this agreement because it is both probable that a liability had been incurred and the amount of the loss can reasonably be estimated.  The fair value of this liability is closely linked to whether the Company enters a reverse merger, initiates a public offering of stock or engages in a similar transaction.  The Company believes that the realization of one or more of these events in the near future is probable and when realized, it could have a material effect on the value of the derivative liability recorded.

 

The main factors that will affect the fair value of the derivative are the number of shares outstanding post acquisition or post offering and the resulting market capitalization.  In order to estimate a range for the potential contingent liability, the Company utilized the Black-Scholes method in calculating the value of the warrant derivative.

 

NOTE 14- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued and determined that there were no material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in these financial statements, except as follows.

 

Effective January 15, 2015, Mr. Bianchi was appointed the Company’s President and became a director of the Company. Concurrent with the appointment, Mr. Wright resigned his position as President and remains as CFO and a director.

 

In February 2015, the Company obtained $33,000 in financing from a creditor. The note accrues interest at a rate of 8% per annum, is due nine months after issuance, and may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock after six months at a 45% discount to the market. A derivative liability will be included in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.
