PART I

 

ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

History and Background

 

Smartag International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Smartag,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), was formed as Theca Corporation on March 24, 1999 in Colorado.   On November 29, 2004, we merged with Art4Love, Inc., a Delaware corporation, into Art4Love, Inc. a Nevada corporation.  Art4love, Inc. attempted to sell and lease art to companies and individuals from artists’ collections worldwide.  On February 109, 2009, Art4Love changed its name to Smartag International, Inc.

 

In September 2013, the Company commenced operations specializing in traceability and mobile payments. We provide food traceability, RFID solutions, near field communications, track and trace services and micro payment services.

 

Amongst the list of accomplishments of the Smartag Group of companies include:

 

  • Smartag provides innovative solutions and services to various industries in the private and government sectors through Internet and Mobility applications technologies to deliver our products and services to homes and businesses.
-3
 

 

  • Smartag has been selected by government sponsored Multimedia Development Corporation (MDEC) in Malaysia, the mandated organization to visualize, and drive Digital Malaysia to establish a Trusted Mobile Digital Wallet System based on Near Field Communication for Mobile Phones.
  • Fully developed Smartrack™ EPCIS (Electronic Product Code Information Services), which culminated in the company receiving the ‘Best of e-Logistics Merit Award’ for Smartrack™ at the MSC Malaysia APICTA Awards 2010, and Merit Winner under the category of e-Logistics and Supply Chain Management at the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance Awards 2010. Smartrack™ is also the first in Asia Pacific, and the second in the world to pass all nine (9) conformance test branches conducted by MET Laboratories Inc. on behalf of GS1 International whereupon Smartrack™ was subsequently awarded with the EPC Global Software Certification Mark. This allows us to link up multiple supply chain logistics company systems together safely into one traceability system using RFID and Bar Codes.
  • Developed comprehensive Food Traceability solution from Farm to table, using GPS, Internet and mobility technologies. The solution is suitable for products like Palm Oil, Frozen meat, high value herbs and health care products.

Overview

 

Since 2013, Smartag has been actively involved in traceability for the food and beverage industry. Smartag realized a key potential growth area – healthy beverage products which it can source the raw materials which are of low calories but at the same time healthy and natural. The US market was overwhelmed with sodas, flavored water and energy drinks, but in recent years, the demand has been changing towards a healthier alternative.

 

In August 2015, Smartag brought in new management led by Mr. Chee Song Yap to lead its efforts in the beverage business by coupling its traceability technology to give reassurance and recall features. Realizing the key benefits of this rising demand, Smartag under its subsidiary, Essential Beverage Corp. (“EBC”) launched a refreshing line energy and functional beverage, Thrivida, that enhances the health of consumers which at the same time enables it to enter the traceable beverage business. http://thrivida.com/

 

Also, within the span of 24-36 months, it is our intention to market a range of beverage drinks for the United States and Asia PacificThe goal: to create exhilarating beverages that are not only a healthier alternative to other drinks, but a new way for consumers to enjoy vitamin and ingredient enhanced beverages. At the same time, because the need for traceable drinks is increasing in the United States as well as China, Smartag is well positioned to take its core technology to test out in its own line of beverages worldwide.

 

In November 2015, Smartag signed an agreement with Bobby Tang Siu Ki and Yang Ye Cai, the co-owners and founders of Shenzhen Shen Nan Shun Technology Co. Ltd (“SSNST”), a company based in Shenzhen, China which is involved in e-commerce trading on e-Bay, Amazon and Alipay platforms. Using the expertise of SSNST, Smartag will establish a minority owned Hong Kong venture to develop an e-Commerce trading, procurement, collection and distribution platform. When the joint venture is completed, the joint venture will be able to offer additional products including Electronic items. LED lighting, Outdoor sports equipment, Beauty products and cosmetics, vehicles accessories and bicycles.

Young Adults: Young men and women between 21 and 35 years of age often look for innovative food and beverage products to improve their diet, but they want something that tastes good. They want a product that is not only healthy for them but that they enjoy drinking. Young adults lead active lifestyles and want/need beverages that are convenient, delicious and provide functional benefits.

Marketing

 

Creating brand awareness is key in gaining increased distribution. EBC will advertise using diverse strategic marketing campaigns based on its product line description. Thrivida Sport Water will focus on sports and entertainment marketing in support of community based organizations, whereas Thrivida Elite Sport 12oz embodies Education based initiatives in support of public school sports, music and arts programs. The Thrivida Essentials Sport 16oz will focus on health & wellness opportunity’s and government or state contracts. The below brand awareness campaigns have been identified for the next three to 6 months of promotion.

 

We believe radio advertisements have the fastest outreach to consumers and creating brand awareness. The radio advertisement will continue and will be modified to include the other products.

 

Thrivida will also tap into the growing Social Media platform connecting with sites such as Facebook, Twitter etc. It allow for a dialogue to develop with Thrivida fans so they can follow our event activities, stores we sell in, and promotional programs.

 

Regulation

The advertising, distribution, labeling, production, safety, sale, and transportation in the United States of our product will be subject to: the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; the Federal Trade Commission Act; the Lanham Act; state consumer protection laws; competition laws; federal, state and local workplace health and safety laws; various federal, state and local environmental protection laws; and various other federal, state and local statutes and regulations.

-9
 

 

Legal requirements apply in many jurisdictions in the United States requiring that deposits or certain ecotaxes or fees be charged for the sale, marketing, and use of certain non-refillable beverage containers. The precise requirements imposed by these measures vary. Other types of statutes and regulations relating to beverage container deposits, recycling, ecotaxes and/or product stewardship also apply in various jurisdictions in the United States. We anticipate that additional, similar legal requirements may be proposed or enacted in the future at the local, state and federal levels in the United States.

 

Any third-party bottling facility that we may choose to utilize in the future and any other such operations will be subject to various environmental protection statutes and regulations, including those relating to the use of water resources and the discharge of wastewater. It will be our policy to comply with any and all such legal requirements. Compliance with these provisions has not had, and we do not expect such compliance to have, any material adverse effect on our capital expenditures, net income or competitive position.

 

Competition

The beverage industry is extremely competitive. The principal areas of competition include pricing, packaging, development of new products and flavors, and marketing campaigns. Our product will be competing directly with a wide range of drinks produced by a relatively large number of manufacturers. Most of these brands have enjoyed broad, well-established national recognition for years, through well-funded ad and other marketing campaigns. In addition, companies manufacturing these products generally have far greater financial, marketing, and distribution resources than we have.

 

Important factors that will affect our ability to compete successfully include the continued public perception of the benefits of alkaline water, taste and flavor of our product, trade and consumer promotions, the development of new, unique and cutting edge products, attractive and unique packaging, branded product advertising, pricing, and the success of our distribution network.

 

We will also be competing to secure distributors who will agree to market our product over those of our competitors, provide stable and reliable distribution, and secure adequate shelf space in retail outlets. The extremely competitive pressures within the beverage categories could result in our product never even being introduced beyond what they can market locally themselves.

 

Our product will compete generally with all liquid refreshments, including bottled water and numerous specialty beverages, such as SoBe, Snapple, Arizona, Vitamin Water, Gatorade, and Powerade. We will compete directly with other alkaline water producers and brands focused on the emerging alkaline beverage market including Eternal, Essentia, Icelandic, Real Water, Aqua Hydrate, Mountain Valley, Qure, Penta, and Alka Power. 

Intellectual Property

Where available, we intend to obtain trademark protection in the United States for a number of trademarks for slogans and product designs. We intend to aggressively assert our rights under trade secret, unfair competition, trademark and copyright laws to protect our intellectual property, including product design, product research and concepts and recognized trademarks. These rights are protected through the acquisition of patents and trademark registrations, the maintenance of trade secrets, the development of trade dress, and, where appropriate, litigation against those who are, in our opinion, infringing these rights. The trademark for Thrivida has been approved and is currently active.

-10
 

 

 

While there can be no assurance that registered trademarks will protect our proprietary information, we intend to assert our intellectual property rights against any infringer. Although any assertion of our rights could result in a substantial cost to, and diversion of effort by, our company, management believes that the protection of our intellectual property rights will be a key component of our sales and operating strategy.

 

Seasonality

The sales of our products are influenced to some extent by weather conditions in the markets in which we operate. Unusually cold or rainy weather during the summer months may have a temporary effect on the demand for our product and contribute to lower sales, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations for such periods.

Principal Executive Offices

Our principal executive offices are currently located at 3651 Lindell Road Ste D269, Las Vegas, NV 89103. Our telephone numbers are +1(702) 589-2179. We believe our facilities are inadequate to meet our current and near-term needs for the next twelve months and we intend to lease premises within the state of California or Nevada within this period.

Insurance

 

We do not currently maintain property, business interruption and casualty insurance. We intend to obtain such insurance in accordance with customary industry practices.

 

Employees

As of September 30, 2015, we had 3 full-time and 12 part-time consultants. Since inception, we have never had a work stoppage, and our employees are not represented by labor unions. We consider our relationship with our employees to be positive.

ITEM 1.A   RISK FACTORS

 

The following important factors, and the important factors described elsewhere in this report or in our other filings with the SEC, could affect (and in some cases have affected) our results and could cause our results to be materially different from estimates or expectations. Other risks and uncertainties may also affect our results or operations adversely. The following and these other risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, results or financial condition.

 

An investment in the Company is highly speculative in nature and involves an extremely high degree of risk.

 

 

We have a history of net losses and will not achieve or maintain profitability.

 

We have a history of incurring losses from operations. As of September 30, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2,772,190, of which approximately $1,164,967 was incurred prior to the cessation of the previous operating business on December 31, 2006.  We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our business needs in the near term. Our ability to continue may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate and we may incur significant additional costs and expenses in connection with the launching of our business.

 

We depend on key personnel to manage our business effectively, and, if we are unable to hire, retain or motivate qualified personnel, our ability to design, develop, market and sell our systems could be harmed.

 

The loss of the services of any of our key personnel may seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the inability to attract or retain qualified personnel, or delays in hiring required personnel, particularly operations, finance, accounting, sales and marketing personnel, may also seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel will be a critical factor in determining whether we will be successful in the future.

 

We will continue to incur the expenses of complying with public company reporting requirements.

 

We have an obligation to continue to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of the Exchange Act which includes the filing with the SEC of periodic reports, proxy statements and other documents relating to our business, financial conditions and other matters, even though compliance with such reporting requirements is economically burdensome.

 

Our business is difficult to evaluate because we have no recent operating history.

 

As the Company has minimal operating history, revenue and assets, there is a risk that we will be unable to continue as a going concern. We have no significant assets or financial resources except for the financial support from our holding company

 

-12
 

 

Our consolidated financial statements indicate conditions exist that raise substantial doubt as to whether we will continue as a going concern.

Our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2015 indicate conditions exist that raise substantial doubt as to whether we will continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing to fund the continued development of products and working capital requirements.

 

Changes in the regulatory food safety requirements could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Our operations are subject to varying degrees of regulation by the FDA, other federal, state and local regulatory agencies and legislative bodies and their equivalent counter parts in other countries. Adverse decisions or new or amended regulations or mandates adopted by any of these regulatory or legislative bodies could negatively impact our operations by, among other things, causing unexpected or changed capital investments, lost revenues, increased costs of doing business, and could limit our ability to engage in certain sales or marketing activities.

 

Our products and networked platforms may be dependent on other third party software or networks which may contain defects or software errors, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenue, diverted development resources and increased service costs, warranty claims, and litigation

 

We warrant that our products will be free of defect for various periods of time, depending on the product. In addition, certain of our contracts include epidemic failure clauses. If invoked, these clauses may entitle the customer to return or obtain credits for products and inventory, or to cancel outstanding purchase orders even if the products themselves are not defective.

 

We must develop our products and networked platforms quickly to keep pace with the rapidly changing market, and we have a history of frequently introducing new products. Products and services as sophisticated as ours could contain undetected errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new models or versions are released. In general, our products may not be free from errors or defects after commercial shipments have begun, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenue, diverted development resources, increased customer service and support costs, warranty claims, and litigation.

 

-13
 

 

Our products are highly technical, and some of our software relies on third party technologies including open source software, so if integration or incompatibility issues arise with these technologies, these technologies become unavailable or our products contain errors, defects or security vulnerabilities, our product and services development may be delayed, our reputation could be harmed and our business could be adversely affected

 

Our products, including our software products, are highly technical and complex and, when deployed, may contain errors, defects or security vulnerabilities. Some errors in our products may only be discovered after a product has been installed and used by customers. In addition, we rely on software that we license from third parties, including software that is integrated with internally developed software and used in our products to perform key functions. Errors, viruses or bugs may also be present in software that we license from third parties and incorporate into our products or in third party software that our customers use in conjunction with our software. In addition, our customers’ proprietary software and network firewall protections may corrupt data from our products and create difficulties in implementing our solutions. Changes to third party software that our customers use in conjunction with our software could also render our applications inoperable. Any errors, defects or security vulnerabilities in our products or any defects in, or compatibility issues with, any third party software or customers’ network environments discovered after commercial release could result in loss of revenues or delay in revenue recognition, loss of customers, theft of our trade secrets, data or intellectual property and increased service and warranty cost, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Undiscovered vulnerabilities in our products alone or in combination with third party software could expose them to hackers or other unscrupulous third parties who develop and deploy viruses, worms, and other malicious software programs that could attack our products. Actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products could harm our reputation and lead some customers to return products, to reduce or delay future purchases or use competitive products.

 

The third party software licenses we rely upon may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, and the software may not be appropriately supported, maintained or enhanced by the licensors, resulting in development delays. Some of these software licenses are subject to annual renewals at the discretion of the licensors. In many cases, if we were to breach a provision of these license agreements, the licensor could terminate the agreement immediately. We license technologies and patents underlying some of our software from third parties, and the loss of these licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business. The loss of licenses to, or inability to support, maintain and enhance, any such third party software could result in increased costs, or delays in software releases or updates, until such issues have been resolved. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and future prospects.

 

We also incorporate open source software into our products. Although we monitor our use of open source closely, the terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by U.S. courts, and there is a risk that such licenses could be construed in a manner that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to market or sell our products or to develop new products. In such event, we could be required to seek licenses from third-parties in order to continue offering our products, to disclose and offer royalty-free licenses in connection with our own source code, to re-engineer our products or to discontinue the sale of our products in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished on a timely basis, any of which could adversely affect our business.

 

-14
 

 

The volatility of our stock price could adversely affect an investment in our common stock

 

The market price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, highly volatile. We believe that a variety of factors could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, including:

announcements and rumors of developments related to our business or the industry in which we compete,
quarterly fluctuations in our actual or anticipated operating results and order levels,
general conditions in the worldwide economy,
acquisition announcements,
new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors,
developments in patents or other intellectual property rights and litigation,
developments in our relationships with our customers and suppliers, and
any significant acts of terrorism.
     

 

In addition, in recent years the stock market in general and the markets for shares of “high-tech” companies in particular, have experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. Any such fluctuations in the future could adversely affect the market price of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may decline.

 

Our information systems or those of our outside vendors may be subject to disruption, delays or security incidents that could adversely impact our customers and operations

 

We rely on our information systems and those of third parties for things such as processing customer orders, delivery of products, providing services and support to our customers, billing and tracking our customers, hosting and managing customer data, and otherwise running our business. Any disruption in our information systems and those of the third parties upon whom we rely could have a significant impact on our business.

 

A security incident in our own systems or the systems of our third party providers may compromise the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our own internal data, the availability of our products and websites designed to support our customers, or our customer data. Unauthorized access to our proprietary business information or customer data may be obtained through break-ins, breach of our secure network by an unauthorized party, employee theft or misuse, breach of the security of the networks of our third party providers, or other misconduct. It is also possible that unauthorized access to customer data may be obtained through inadequate use of security controls by customers. While our products and services provide and support strong password controls, IP restriction and other security mechanisms, the use of such mechanisms are controlled in many cases by our customers.

 

-15
 

 

We may also experience delays or interruptions caused by a number of factors, including access to the internet, the failure of our network or software systems, or significant variability in visitor traffic on our product websites. It is also possible that hardware or software failures or errors in our systems, or in those of our third party providers, could result in data loss or corruption or cause the information that we collect to be incomplete or contain inaccuracies that our customers regard as significant. These failures and interruptions could harm our reputation and cause us to lose customers.

 

Although our systems have been designed around industry-standard architectures to reduce downtime in the event of outages or catastrophic occurrences, they remain vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunication failures, terrorist attacks, cyber-attacks, computer viruses, computer denial-of-service attacks, human error, hardware or software defects or malfunctions (including defects or malfunctions of components of our systems that are supplied by third-party service providers), and similar events or disruptions. Some of our systems are not fully redundant, and our disaster recovery planning is not sufficient for all eventualities. Our systems are also subject to break-ins, sabotage, and intentional acts of vandalism. Despite any precautions we may take, the occurrence of a natural disaster, a decision by any of our third-party hosting providers to close a facility we use without adequate notice for financial or other reasons, or other unanticipated problems at our hosting facilities could cause system interruptions and delays, and result in loss of critical data and lengthy interruptions in our services.

 

Our global operations expose us to risks and challenges associated with conducting business internationally, and our results of operations may be adversely affected by our efforts to comply with U.S. laws which apply to international operations, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and US export control laws, as well as the laws of other countries.

 

We operate on a global basis with offices or activities in Asia, the Middle East, and North America. We face several risks inherent in conducting business internationally, including compliance with international and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to our international operations. These laws and regulations include data privacy requirements, labor relations laws, tax laws, anti-competition regulations, import and trade restrictions, export control laws, U.S. laws such as export control laws and the FCPA, and similar laws in other countries which also prohibit corrupt payments to governmental officials or certain payments or remunerations to customers. Many of our products are subject to U.S. export law restrictions that limit the destinations and types of customers to which our products may be sold, or require an export license in connection with sales outside the United States. Given the high level of complexity of these laws, there is a risk that some provisions may be inadvertently breached, for example through fraudulent or negligent behavior of individual employees, our failure to comply with certain formal documentation requirements or otherwise. Also, we may be held liable for actions taken by our local partners. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines, criminal sanctions against us, our officers or our employees, and prohibitions on the conduct of our business. Any such violations could include prohibitions on our ability to offer our products in one or more countries and could materially damage our reputation, our brand, our international expansion efforts, our ability to attract and retain employees, our business and our operating results.

 

In addition, we operate in many parts of the world that have experienced significant governmental corruption to some degree and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. We may be subject to competitive disadvantages to the extent that our competitors are able to secure business, licenses or other preferential treatment by making payments to government officials and others in positions of influence or through other methods that U.S. law and regulations prohibit us from using. Our success depends, in part, on our ability to anticipate these risks and manage these difficulties.

-16
 

 

In addition to the foregoing, engaging in international business inherently involves a number of other difficulties and risks, including:

longer payment cycles and difficulties in enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through certain foreign legal systems,
political and economic instability,
potentially adverse tax consequences, tariffs, customs charges, bureaucratic requirements and other trade barriers,
difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations,
difficulties protecting or procuring intellectual property rights, and
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

 

These factors or any combination of these factors may adversely affect our revenue or our overall financial performance.

 

Risks Related to the Beverage Industry

 

Changes in the non-alcoholic beverage business environment and retail landscape could adversely impact our financial results.

The non-alcoholic beverage business environment is rapidly evolving as a result of, among other things, changes in consumer preferences, including changes based on health and nutrition considerations and obesity concerns; shifting consumer tastes and needs; changes in consumer lifestyles; and competitive product and pricing pressures. In addition, the non-alcoholic beverage retail landscape is very dynamic and constantly evolving, not only in emerging and developing markets, where modern trade is growing at a faster pace than traditional trade outlets, but also in developed markets, where discounters and value stores, as well as the volume of transactions through e-commerce, are growing at a rapid pace. If we are unable to successfully adapt to the rapidly changing environment and retail landscape, our share of sales, volume growth and overall financial results could be negatively affected.

Intense competition and increasing competition in the commercial beverage market could hurt our business.

The commercial retail beverage industry, and in particular its non-alcoholic beverage segment, is highly competitive. Market participants are of various sizes, with various market shares and geographical reach, some of whom have access to substantially more sources of capital.

We compete generally with all liquid refreshments, including bottled water and numerous specialty beverages, such as: SoBe; Snapple; Arizona; Vitamin Water; Gatorade; and Powerade.

We compete indirectly with major international beverage companies including but not limited to: the Coca-Cola Company; PepsiCo, Inc.; Nestlé; Dr Pepper Snapple Group; Groupe Danone; Kraft Foods Group, Inc.; and Unilever. These companies have established market presence in the United States, and offer a variety of beverages that are substitutes to our product. We face potential direct competition from such companies, because they have the financial resources, and access to manufacturing and distribution channels to rapidly enter the sports water market.

-17
 

 

As a result of both direct and indirect competition, our ability to successfully distribute, market and sell our product, and to gain sufficient market share in the United States to realize profits may be limited, greatly diminished, or totally diminished, which may lead to partial or total loss of your investments in our company.

Alternative non-commercial beverages or processes could hurt our business.

The availability of non-commercial beverages, such as tap water, and machines capable of producing flavored water at the consumer’s home or at store-fronts could hurt our business, market share, and profitability.

Our growth and profitability depends on the performance of third-parties and our relationship with them.

Our distribution network and its success depend on the performance of third parties. Any non-performance or deficient performance by such parties may undermine our operations, profitability, and result in total loss to your investment. To distribute our product, we use a broker-distributor-retailer network whereby brokers represent our products to distributors and retailers who will in turn sell our product to consumers. The success of this network will depend on the performance of the brokers, distributors and retailers of this network. There is a risk that a broker, distributor, or retailer may refuse to or cease to market or carry our product. There is a risk that the mentioned entities may not adequately perform their functions within the network by, without limitation, failing to distribute to sufficient retailers or positioning our product in localities that may not be receptive to our product. Furthermore, such third-parties’ financial position or market share may deteriorate, which could adversely affect our distribution, marketing and sale activities. We also need to maintain good commercial relationships with third-party brokers, distributors and retailers so that they will promote and carry our product. Any adverse consequences resulting from the performance of third-parties or our relationship with them could undermine our operations, profitability and may result in total loss of your investment.

The loss of one or more of our major customers or a decline in demand from one or more of these customers could harm our business.

We have a few major customers. There can be no assurance that such customers will continue to order our products in the same level or at all. A reduction or delay in orders from such customers, including reductions or delays due to market, economic or competitive conditions, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Water scarcity and poor quality could negatively impact our production costs and capacity.

Water is the main ingredient in our product. It is also a limited resource, facing unprecedented challenges from overexploitation, increasing pollution, poor management, and climate change. As demand for water continues to increase, as water becomes scarcer, and as the quality of available water deteriorates, we may incur increasing production costs or face capacity constraints that could adversely affect our profitability or net operating revenues in the long run.

-18
 

 

Increase in the cost, disruption of supply or shortage of ingredients, other raw materials or packaging materials could harm our business.

We and our bottlers will use water, various ingredients, packaging materials for bottles such as plastic and paper products. The prices for these ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials fluctuate depending on market conditions. Substantial increases in the prices of our or our bottlers’ ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials, to the extent they cannot be recouped through increases in the prices of finished beverage products, would increase our operating costs and could reduce our profitability. Increases in the prices of our finished products resulting from a higher cost of ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials could affect the affordability of our product and reduce sales.

An increase in the cost, a sustained interruption in the supply, or a shortage of some of these ingredients, other raw materials, or packaging materials and containers that may be caused by a deterioration of our or our bottlers’ relationships with suppliers; by supplier quality and reliability issues; or by events such as natural disasters, power outages, labor strikes, political uncertainties or governmental instability, or the like, could negatively impact our net revenues and profits.

Changes in laws and regulations relating to beverage containers and packaging could increase our costs and reduce demand for our products.

We and our bottlers intend to offer our product in nonrefillable, recyclable containers in the United States. Legal requirements have been enacted in various jurisdictions in the United States requiring that deposits or certain ecotaxes or fees be charged for the sale, marketing and use of certain nonrefillable beverage containers. Other proposals relating to beverage container deposits, recycling, ecotax and/or product stewardship have been introduced in various jurisdictions in the United States and overseas, and we anticipate that similar legislation or regulations may be proposed in the future at local, state and federal levels in the United States. Consumers’ increased concerns and changing attitudes about solid waste streams and environmental responsibility and the related publicity could result in the adoption of such legislation or regulations. If these types of requirements are adopted and implemented on a large scale in the geographical regions in which we operate or intend to operate, they could affect our costs or require changes in our distribution model, which could reduce our net operating revenues or profitability.

Significant additional labeling or warning requirements or limitations on the availability of our product may inhibit sales of affected products.

Various jurisdictions may seek to adopt significant additional product labeling or warning requirements or limitations on the availability of our product relating to the content or perceived adverse health consequences of our product. If these types of requirements become applicable to our product under current or future environmental or health laws or regulations, they may inhibit sales of our product.

Unfavorable general economic conditions in the United States could negatively impact our financial performance.

Unfavorable general economic conditions, such as a recession or economic slowdown, in the United States could negatively affect the affordability of, and consumer demand for, our product in the United States. Under difficult economic conditions, consumers may seek to reduce discretionary spending by forgoing purchases of our products or by shifting away from our beverages to lower-priced products offered by other companies. Consumers may also cease purchasing bottled water and consume tap water. Lower consumer demand for our product in the United States could reduce our profitability.

-19
 

 

Adverse weather conditions could reduce the demand for our products.

The sales of our products are influenced to some extent by weather conditions in the markets in which we operate. Unusually cold or rainy weather during the summer months may have a temporary effect on the demand for our product and contribute to lower sales, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations for such periods.

Changes in, or failure to comply with, the laws and regulations applicable to our products or our business operations could increase our costs or reduce our net operating revenues.

The advertising, distribution, labeling, production, safety, sale, and transportation in the United States of our product will be subject to: the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; the Federal Trade Commission Act; the Lanham Act; state consumer protection laws; competition laws; federal, state, and local workplace health and safety laws, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Act; various federal, state and local environmental protection laws; and various other federal, state, and local statutes and regulations. Legal requirements also apply in many jurisdictions in the United States requiring that deposits or certain ecotaxes or fees be charged for the sale, marketing, and use of certain non-refillable beverage containers. The precise requirements imposed by these measures vary. Other types of statutes and regulations relating to beverage container deposits, recycling, ecotaxes and/or product stewardship also apply in various jurisdictions in the United States. We anticipate that additional, similar legal requirements may be proposed or enacted in the future at the local, state and federal levels in the United States. Changes to such laws and regulations could increase our costs or reduce our net operating revenues.

In addition, failure to comply with environmental, health or safety requirements and other applicable laws or regulations could result in the assessment of damages, the imposition of penalties, suspension of production, changes to equipment or processes, or a cessation of operations at our or our bottlers’ facilities, as well as damage to our image and reputation, all of which could harm our profitability.

Risks Related to Our Stock

 

Because our common stock is considered a "penny stock" any investment in our common stock is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability.

 

Our common stock is currently traded on the OTC Markets and OTC Bulletin Board and is considered a "penny stock." The OTC Markets and OTC Bulletin Board are generally regarded as a less efficient trading market than the NASDAQ Capital Market.

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks." Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and any salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock.

-20
 

 

Since our common stock is subject to the regulations applicable to penny stocks, the market liquidity for our common stock could be adversely affected because the regulations on penny stocks could limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and thus your ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market.  There is no assurance our common stock will be quoted on NASDAQ or the NYSE or listed on any exchange, even if eligible.

 

We have additional securities available for issuance, including preferred stock, which if issued could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common stock and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  The common stock and the preferred stock can be issued by, and the terms of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, voting rights, liquidation preference and conversion rights can generally be determined by, our board of directors without stockholder approval. Any issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of the holders of common stock by, among other things, establishing preferential dividends, liquidation rights or voting powers. Accordingly, our stockholders will be dependent upon the judgment of our management in connection with the future issuance and sale of shares of our common stock and preferred stock, in the event that buyers can be found therefore. Any future issuances of common stock or preferred stock would further dilute the percentage ownership of our Company held by the public stockholders.

 

We cannot assure you that our common stock will be listed on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange.

 

We may seek the listing of our common stock on NASDAQ or the American Stock Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that following such a transaction, we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of either of those or any other stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on either of those or any other stock exchange. Until our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ or another stock exchange, we expect that our common stock would be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if it failed to meet the criteria set forth in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect its liquidity.

 

Authorization of preferred stock.

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of its authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and as a consequence of taking advantage of certain exemptions from reporting requirements that are available to emerging growth companies, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

We are an emerging growth company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act. Pursuant to Section 107 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, we may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards, meaning that we can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have chosen to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies to delay adoption of such standards until such standards are made applicable to private companies. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the consolidated financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

ITEM 7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The discussion and analysis that follows should be read together with the section entitled “Forward Looking Statements” and our consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.

 

Except for historical information, the matters discussed in this section are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties and are based upon judgments concerning various factors that are beyond the Company’s control. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report.

 

Overview

 

Smartag International, Inc. specializes in traceability and mobile payments. We provide food traceability, RFID solutions, near field communications, track and trace services and micro payment services.

 

Since 2013, Smartag has been actively involved in traceability for manufacturing plants and in the food and beverage industry. Smartag realized a key potential growth area – healthy beverage products which it can source the raw materials which are of low calories but at the same time healthy and natural. The US market was overwhelmed with sodas, flavored water and energy drinks, but in recent years, the demand has been changing towards a healthier alternative.

 

In August 2015, Smartag brought in new management led by Mr. Chee Song Yap to lead its efforts in the beverage business by coupling its traceability technology to give reassurance and recall features. Realizing the key benefits of this rising demand, Smartag under its subsidiary, Essential Beverage Corp. (“EBC”) launched a refreshing line energy and functional beverage, Thrivida, that enhances the health of consumers which at the same time enables it to enter the traceable beverage business. http://thrivida.com/

 

Also, within the span of 24-36 months, it is our intention to market a range of beverage drinks for the United States and Asia Pacific. The goal: to create exhilarating beverages that are not only a healthier alternative to other drinks, but a new way for consumers to enjoy vitamin and ingredient enhanced beverages. At the same time, because the need for traceable drinks is increasing in the United States as well as China, Smartag is well positioned to take its core technology to test out in its own line of beverages worldwide. 

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014

 

Revenues

For the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded revenue of $95,766 and $62,218, respectively. The increase was due to the commencement of operations in selling beverage bottles.

-25
 

 

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $39,534 and $60,468 for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,227,605 and $107,968 for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase of $1,119,637 was due primarily to an increase in stock based compensation of $483,000, consulting fees of $154,345, and expenses in starting beverage operations of $399,709.

 

Interest income/(expense) and other, net

We recorded an unrealized loss of 25,000 on an investment for the year ended September 30, 2014.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following is a summary of the Company's cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

 

   Years Ended September 30,
   2015  2014
Operating Activities  $(484,135)  $(119,931)
Investing Activities   (215,877)   —   
Financing Activities   710,000    100,000 
Net Effect on Cash  $9,988   $(19,931)

 

 

In the current year ending September 30, 2015, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,171,373 offset by stock compensation of $483,000 and an increase in accounts payable of $187,201.  For the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of $131,218 offset by an increase in related party notes payable of $100,000.  The Company received proceeds from related parties of $810,000 to cover its operational losses.

 

Going Concern Uncertainties

 

As of the date of this annual report, there is doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flow to fund our business operations and loan commitments.  Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing.  The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon the Company and our shareholders.

 

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

 

On March 17, 2009, we entered into a Revolving Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”) with Smartag Solutions Bhd, a Malaysian corporation, the majority stockholder of the Company.  Under the terms of the Note, Smartag Solutions Bhd., agreed to advance to the Company, from time to time and at the request of the Company, amounts up to an aggregate of $200,000 until September 30, 2015.  All advances shall be paid on or before September 30, 2016 and interest shall accrue from the date of any advances on any principal amount withdrawn, and on accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the rate of zero percent (0%) per annum, compounded annually. As of September 30, 2015, Smartag Solutions Bhd advanced us $192,457.  The Secured Note ranks senior to all current and future indebtedness of Smartag and is secured by substantially all of the assets of Smartag.  

 

During the year ended September 30, 2015, the Company received $810,000 advances from related parties which the terms were still being negotiated and currently were recorded under other payable. $730,000 was from a related entity to a former director and $80,000 was received from Chee Song Yap. Subsequent to September 30, 2015, the two parties entered into 0% interest notes which are to be repaid by September 30, 2016.

 

-26
 

 

On September 19, 2013, we entered into a Loan Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with SSB. Under the terms of the agreement, SSB loaned the Company $200,000 (“Loan”). On May 16, 2014, the SSB increased the Loan to $300,000. The Loan shall be repaid on or before September 30, 2016 and this loan has an interest rate of 0% interest per annum. The Company repaid $100,000 of the Loan in the year ended September 30, 2015.

 

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.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a complete description of recent accounting standards which we have not yet been required to implement and may be applicable to our operation, as well as those significant accounting standards that have been adopted during the current year.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As such, management is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that they believe are reasonable based upon the information available.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:

 

Revenue Recognition -

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC 605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery of product has met the criteria established in the arrangement or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. This occurs when the products or services are completed in accordance with the contracts we have with clients. In connection with our products and services arrangements, when we are paid in advance, these amounts are classified as deferred revenue and amortized over the term of the agreement.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

  

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors

Smartag International, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Smartag International, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and consolidated cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatements. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Smartag International, Inc. as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is dependent upon the continued sale of its securities, or obtaining debt financing for funds to meet its cash requirements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

NOTE 1    Nature of business

 

Current Operations and Background

 

Smartag International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Smartag,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), was formed as Theca Corporation on March 24, 1999 in Colorado.  The Company is in the development stage as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7. On November 29, 2004, we merged with Art4Love, Inc., a Delaware corporation, into Art4Love, Inc. a Nevada corporation.   On February 109, 2009, Art4Love changed its name to Smartag International, Inc.

 

Since 2013, Smartag has been actively involved in traceability for manufacturing plants and in the food and beverage industry. Smartag realized a key potential growth area – healthy beverage products which it can source the raw materials which are of low calories but at the same time healthy and natural. The US market was overwhelmed with sodas, flavored water and energy drinks, but in recent years, the demand has been changing towards a healthier alternative.

 

In July 2015, Smartag entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Essential Beverage Corporation, a Nevada corporation, pursuant to which the Company purchased a 51% interest in EBC for a total consideration of $399,709 and one million shares of the Company’s restricted common stock valued at $23,000.

 

In August 2015, Smartag brought in new management led by Mr. Chee Song Yap to lead its efforts in the beverage business by coupling its traceability technology to give reassurance and recall features. Realizing the key benefits of this rising demand, Smartag under its subsidiary, Essential Beverage Corp. (“EBC”) launched a refreshing line energy and functional beverage, Thrivida, that enhances the health of consumers which at the same time enables it to enter the traceable beverage business. 

 

NOTE 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant of Accounting Policies

 

Basis  of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The audited consolidated financial statements  have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include the accounts of Smartag International, Inc. and its subsidiary, Essential Beverage Corporation. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

 

Going Concern - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the company as a going concern. However, we have an accumulated deficit of $2,772,190 as of September 30, 2015. Our total liabilities exceeded its total assets as of September 30, 2015. In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital, and obtain financing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

-34
 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. The Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014.

 

Factoring of Receivable -  The Company use a factor for working capital and credit administration purposes. Under the factoring agreement, the factor purchases a portion of the trade accounts receivable and assumes all credit risk with respect to such accounts. The Company includes the amount in accounts receivable. The amounts advanced are included in current liabilities.

 

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC 605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery of product has met the criteria established in the arrangement or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. This occurs when the products or services are completed in accordance with the contracts we have with clients. In connection with our products and services arrangements, when we are paid in advance, these amounts are classified as deferred revenue and amortized over the term of the agreement. 

 

Income Taxes — The Company records income taxes in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes.”  The standard requires, among other provisions, an asset and liability approach to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities.  Valuation allowances are provided if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Goodwill— The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of intangible assets not subject to amortization, including goodwill, to determine whether impairment may exist. Goodwill and certain intangible assets are assessed annually, or when certain triggering events occur, for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company uses level 3 inputs and a discounted cash flow methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. A discounted cash flow analysis requires one to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates, and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. Discount rate assumptions are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the respective reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit.

Stock-Based Compensation — The Company records transactions under share based payment arrangements in accordance with the provisions of the FASB ASC Topic 718, “Share Based Payment Arrangements”.  The standard requires recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments in the consolidated financial statements over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award. The standard also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award. The Company is using the modified prospective method allowed under this standard. Accordingly, upon adoption, prior period amounts have not been restated. Under this application, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of compensation expense for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption and recorded compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption.

 

The standard provides that income tax effects of share-based payments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements for those awards that will normally result in tax deduction under existing law. Under current U.S. federal tax law, the Company would receive a compensation expense deduction related to non-qualified stock options only when those options are exercised and vested shares are received. Accordingly, the financial statement recognition of compensation cost for non-qualified stock options creates a deductible temporary difference which results in a deferred tax asset and a corresponding deferred tax benefit in the income statement. The Company does not recognize a tax benefit for compensation expense related to incentive stock options unless the underlying shares are disposed in a disqualifying disposition.

 

Net Loss Per Share — The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Under the provisions of the standard, basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Common equivalent shares related to stock options and warrants have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash.  The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed FDIC insured limits.

 

Financial Instruments — Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, and notes payable.  The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and notes payable are representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities.  

 

Marketable Securities— The Company classifies its marketable equity securities as available-for-sale and carries them at fair market value, with the unrealized gains and losses included in the determination of comprehensive income and reported in stockholders’ equity. Losses that the Company believes are other-than-temporary are realized in the period that the determination is made. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $25,000 in unrealized losses. None of the investments have been hedged in any manner.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements  

 

The Company reviewed all recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC and they did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – Business Combinations

Stock Purchase Agreement - EBC

 

During the year ended September 30, 2015, the Company advanced Legendary Liquids LLC, a related party and predecessor of EBC, $96,500 which is being classified as other receivable. The amount due is unsecured and interest free. The purpose of the investment was to partner with beverage company to provide product tracking. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company entered into a partnership agreement with Essentials Beverage Company (“Essentials”) whereby the Company agreed to contribute Essentials operational funds in exchange for 65% of the revenues generated by Essentials. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had funded Essentials $253,237 and had accounts receivables owed from Essentials amounted to $49,972.

On July 5, 2015, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with EBC, pursuant to which the Company purchased a 51% interest in EBC for a total previous consideration due from EBC of $399,709 and one million shares of the Company’s restricted common stock valued at $23,000. At the time of the transaction, the Company deemed the previous consideration of $360,975 as not collectible.  The Company recorded goodwill associated with the transaction of $260,975.

The Company has estimated that the fair value of the assets p at the date of the purchase in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations”, as follows:

 

Assets  $4,958 
Intangible assets   —   
Goodwill   260,975 
fair value of liabilities assumed   (266,835)
Non controlling interest   (22,098)
Purchase price  $23,000 

 

The intangible assets relate to customer lists and will be amortized over three years.

NOTE 4 – Other Payable - Related Party

 

During the year ended September 30, 2015, the Company received $810,000 advances from related parties which the terms were still being negotiated and currently were recorded under other payable. $730,000 was from a related entity to a former director and $80,000 was received from Chee Song Yap. Subsequent to September 30, 2015, the two parties entered into 0% interest notes which are to be repaid by September 30, 2016.

NOTE 5 – Note Payable – Related Party

  

Secured Note

On March 17, 2009, we entered into a Secured Revolving Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”) with Smartag Solutions Bhd, a Malaysian corporation, the majority stockholder of the Company.  Under the terms of the Note, Smartag Solutions Bhd, agreed to advance to the Company, from time to time and at the request of the Company, amounts up to an aggregate of $200,000 until September 30, 2014.  All advances shall be paid on or before September 30, 2015 and this advance has an interest rate of 0% per annum. As of September 30, 2015, Smartag Solutions Bhd advanced us $192,457.  The Secured Note ranks senior to all current and future indebtedness of Smartag and is secured by substantially all of the assets of Smartag. The Secured Note shall be repaid on or before September 30, 2016.

 

Loan Agreement

On September 19, 2013, we entered into a Loan Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with SSB. Under the terms of the agreement, SSB loaned the Company $200,000 (“Loan”). On May 16, 2014, the SSB increased the Loan to $300,000. The Loan shall be repaid on or before September 30, 2016 and this loan has an interest rate of 0% interest per annum. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company repaid $100,000 of the Loan.

NOTE 6 – Income Taxes

 

We have incurred operating losses of $2,772,190, which, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2019. Future tax benefits, which may arise as a result of these losses, have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements, and have been offset by a valuation allowance. There are additional limitations due to our change in control. Therefore, we believe we will be unable to utilize these loss carryforwards.

 

The effective income tax rate for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 consisted of the following:

 

   September 30,
   2015  2014
Federal statutory income tax rate   34.00%   34.00%
State income taxes   0%   0%
Change in valuation allowance   (34.00)%   (34.00)%
Net effective income tax rate   —      —   

 

Current year added tax asset from net loss for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

 
   September 30,
   2015  2014
Net operating loss  $1,171,373   $131,218 
Statutory tax rate (combined federal and state)   34%   34%
Non-capital tax loss   398,267    44,614 
Valuation allowance   (398,267)   (44,614)
   $—     $—   

 

-38
 

 

The potential future tax benefits of these losses have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements due to uncertainty of their realization. When the future utilization of some portion of the carryforwards is determined not to be “more likely than not,” a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded tax benefits from such assets.

 

The Company annually conducts an analysis of its tax positions and has concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2015. The Company has not filed its tax returns for the years ending September 30, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.

 

NOTE 7 – Stockholder’s Deficit

 

As of September 30, 2015, there were authorized 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  Each common share entitles the holder to one vote, in person or proxy, on any matter on which action of the stockholder of the corporation is sought.

 

On July 5, 2015, the Company authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares to EBC in partial consideration of 51% of EBC. The Company placed a value of $23,000 for these shares. These shares have not yet been issued.

 

On August 19, 2015, the Company issued 13,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to its director, Chee Song Yap, and recorded stock compensation expense of $310,500. Additionally, on August 19, 2015, the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to unrelated parties for services and recorded stock compensation expense of $172,500.

 

There are currently 31,637,151 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and zero shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

 

NOTE 8 – Concentration of Credit Risk

 

We maintain our cash balances in various financial institutions that from time to time exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000, per financial institution.  As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, our deposits did not exceed insured amounts.  We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

 

NOTE 9 – Concentration of Sales

 

For the year ended September 30, 2015, our revenues resulted from three customers. The three customers accounted for 52%, 24%, and 24% of our total revenue.

 

NOTE 10 – Subsequent Events 

 

In November 2015, Smartag signed an agreement with Bobby Tang Siu Ki and Yang Ye Cai, the co-owners and founders of Shenzhen Shen Nan Shun Technology Co. Ltd (“SSNST”), a company based in Shenzhen, China which is involved in e-commerce trading on e-Bay, Amazon and Alipay platforms.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

There are not and have not been any disagreements between the Company and its accountants on any matter of accounting principles, practices or financial statement disclosure.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term "disclosure controls and procedures", as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC`s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of September 30, 2015, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level and are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures will meet their objectives. However, it should be noted that 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, regardless of how remote.

 

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  The internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management's review and approval of all transactions.  Our internal control over financial reporting also includes those policies and procedures that:

 

(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
   
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and
   
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
-40
 

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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 the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

 

Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of September 30, 2015, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Based solely on the Company's review of the copies of the forms received by it during the period ended September 30, 2015 and representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes, except for the below, that no persons who, at any time during such fiscal year, was a director, officer or beneficial owner of more than 10% of the Company's common stock failed to comply with all Section 16(a) filing requirements during such fiscal year.

Subsequent to September 30, 2015, the two parties entered into 0% interest notes which are to be repaid by September 30, 2016.

 

On March 17, 2009, we entered into a Revolving Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”) with Smartag Solutions Bhd, a Malaysian corporation, the majority stockholder of the Company.  Under the terms of the Note, Smartag Solutions Bhd., agreed to advance to the Company, from time to time and at the request of the Company, amounts up to an aggregate of $200,000 until September 30, 2014.  All advances shall be paid on or before September 30, 2016 and interest shall accrue from the date of any advances on any principal amount withdrawn, and on accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the rate of zero percent (0%) per annum, compounded annually. As of September 30, 2016, Smartag Solutions Bhd advanced us $192,457.  The Secured Note ranks senior to all current and future indebtedness of Smartag and are secured by substantially all of the assets of Smartag.

 

On September 19, 2013, we entered into a Loan Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with SSB. Under the terms of the agreement, SSB loaned the Company $200,000 (“Loan”).

The Loan shall be repaid on or before September 30, 2016 and interest shall accrue from the date of any advances on any principal amount withdrawn, and on accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the rate of zero percent (0%) per annum, compounded annually. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company repaid $100,000 of the Loan.

Corporate Governance and Director Independence.

 

The Company has not:

 

  established its own definition for determining whether its directors and nominees for directors are “independent” nor has it adopted any other standard of independence employed by any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, though our current director would not be deemed to be “independent” under any applicable definition given that he is an officer of the Company; nor
     
  established any committees of the board of directors.

 

Given the nature of the Company’s business, its limited stockholder base and the current composition of management, the board of directors does not believe that the Company requires any corporate governance committees at this time.

As of the date hereof, the entire board serves as the Company’s audit committee.

On December 18, 2013, we engaged TAAD, LLP (“TAAD”) our new independent registered public accounting firm. The appointment of TAAD was approved by our Board of Directors.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Auditors

 

Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditor.  In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditor.

 

1. Audit services include audit work performed of consolidated financial statements, as well as work that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, including statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

 

2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements.

 

3. Tax services include all services performed by the independent auditor’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the consolidated financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.
