SMARTCHASE CORP.
Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements
March 31, 2016


NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at March 31, 2016 and for all periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2015 audited financial statements.  The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.


NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  As of March 31, 2016, the Company has accumulated operating losses of approximately $1,023,419.  The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the successful completion of additional financing arrangements and its ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations.  Management plans to raise equity capital to finance the operating and capital requirements of the Company.  While the Company is putting forth its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate funds that will be available for operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.


NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.  The Company has elected a December 31 year-end.

Basis of Accounting

The basis is United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Use of Estimates

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

SMARTCHASE CORP.
Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements
March 31, 2016


NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue on an accrual basis. Revenue is generally realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met:  1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and our customer(s); 2) services have been rendered; 3) our price to our customer is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740-10, "Income Taxes", which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Net Loss Per Common Share

FASB ASC Topic 260-10, "Earnings per Share", requires presentation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share on the face of the statements of operations for all entities with complex capital structures.  Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted during the period. Dilutive securities having an anti- dilutive effect on diluted earnings per share are excluded from the calculation.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted FASB ASC Topic 718-10, "Compensation- Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718-10") which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors. Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718-10, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period.

Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires considerable judgment, including estimating the expected future volatility of our stock price, estimating the expected length of term of granted options and selecting the appropriate risk-free rate. There is no established trading market for our stock.

Financial instruments

The fair value of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Management does not believe the Company is exposed to significant credit risk. Management, as well, does not believe the Company is exposed to significant interest rate and foreign currency fluctuation risks during the period presented in these financial statements.  As at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has cash equivalents in the amount of $ nil and $ nil that are over the federally insured limit.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Occasional transactions may occur in Canadian dollars and management has adopted FASB ASC topic 830 "Foreign Currency Matters". Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average monthly rates are used to translate revenues and expenses. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. The Company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.


NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As of March 31, 2016, nil is owed to related parties (December 31, 2015 - $71,507). During the quarter, $45,779 was repaid to the Company's President for loans and payments made directly to vendors on behalf of the Company and $25,728 was paid to a company controlled by the Company's Chief Executive Officer for professional services rendered.


NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY

As of March 31, 2016 there were 33,942,563 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and nil shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, an aggregate of 62,500 preferred shares of stock were converted into 12,500,000 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 200 to 1.

SMARTCHASE CORP.
Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements
March 31, 2016


NOTE 6 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company has elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements.  The adoption of this ASU allows the Company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage.


NOTE 7 - CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

On December 31, 2015, the Company sold convertible debentures at a price of $1,000 per convertible debenture to a related party for an aggregate of $250,000 (the "Convertible Debenture"). The debentures have a term of eighteen (18) months from December 31, 2015 (the "Maturity Date"), bear interest at a rate of 14% per annum, payable on the Maturity Date, shall be converted into common shares of the Corporation ("Debenture Shares") at the following conversion prices: $0.07 per share within six (6) months of issuance, $0.10 per share between six (6) to twelve (12) months, and $0.15 per share between twelve (12) to eighteen (18) months.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, the Company accounted for the beneficial conversion feature of the Convertible Debenture in the amount of $107,143, which was recorded as a discount and amortized over the life of the Convertible Debenture.


NOTE 8 – RECLASSIFICATION OF PRIOR YEAR PRESENTATION

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. At the conclusion of the first quarter interim review of fiscal 2015, the Company concluded that it was appropriate to reclassify certain accounting and administrative fees to general & administrative fees.  Previously, such fees had been classified as professional fees. Accordingly, the Company has revised the classification to the Statements of Operations. This change in classification does not materially affect previously reported cash flows from operations in the Statements of Cash Flows for any period.


NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and believes there are no events to disclose.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Information

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential", or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.  These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.  Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.  All references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

In this Form 10-Q references to "SmartChase", "the Company", "we", "us" and "our" refer to SmartChase Corp.

Limited Operating History
 
There is limited historical financial information about our company upon which to base an evaluation of our future performance.  We are a development stage corporation and have generated limited revenues from operations.  We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations.  We are subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible delays in the exploitation of business opportunities.  We may fail to adopt a business model and strategize effectively or fail to revise our business model and strategy should industry conditions and competition change.

We have limited resources and there is no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. Additional equity financing could result in dilution to existing shareholders.

Overview of Operations

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2006, as Political Calls, Inc.  We maintain our statutory registered agent's office at 701 S. Carson St., Ste. 200, Carson City, NV 89701 and our principal executive offices are located at 343 Preston Street, 11th Floor, Ottawa, ON, K1S 1N4.  Our telephone number is (514) 290-8863.

The original business plan of the Company consisted of marketing telephone broadcasting messages for political campaigns.  On November 23, 2008, the Board of Directors and the majority vote of the Company's shareholders voted and approved a name change of the Company from Political Calls, Inc. to Northern Empire Energy Corp., to signify the Company's business direction in oil and gas exploration.



8

In December 2009 we entered into a "Formal Option to Purchase and Sale Agreement of Petroleum and Natural Gas Rights" with an Alberta Corporation and purchased certain petroleum and natural gas rights within the Province of Alberta for a total purchase price of $471,524 ($500,000.00 Canadian Dollars).  The Company was unable to secure additional financing to conduct exploration and drill wells on its oil and gas properties and consequently, during the year ended December 31, 2010, became a shell corporation whose sole purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger and/or acquisition with an operating entity.

On December 3, 2014, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from "Northern Empire Energy Corp." to "SmartChase Corp." (the "Name Change")  to better reflect the Company's new business direction pursuing business opportunities in the digital media sector, with an initial focus on the development and utilization of mobile apps.  We were unsuccessful in our efforts to locate suitable business opportunities in the digital media sector, and as a result we have been seeking other viable business opportunities for the Company.

We have no employees and own no property. We do not intend to perform any further operations until a merger or acquisition candidate is located and a merger or acquisition consummated. We are a "shell company" whose sole purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger and/or acquisition with an operating entity.


Plan of Operation

Currently, we are a development stage corporation.  A development stage corporation is one engaged in the search of business opportunities, successful negotiation and closing of a business acquisition and furthering its business plan.

Our plan of operation for the next twelve months will be to pursue business opportunities in the Information Technology sector.  Our business plan is focused on providing customized technology platforms to small businesses in a way that is tailored to their needs.  By combining easy-to-use on-site devices and the power of the cloud we intend to bring the latest technology directly into to the place of business allowing for small businesses to communicate, manage data, and improve efficiency. 

In the event we are unable to execute our business plan, we will then (i) consider guidelines of industries in which we may have an interest; (ii) adopt a business plan regarding engaging in business in any selected industry; and (iii) commence such operations through funding and/or the acquisition of an operating entity engaged in any industry selected.


Results of Operations

We did not generate any revenues during the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
During the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, much of the Company's resources were directed at maintaining the Company in good standing and identifying new business opportunities.  We currently have no definitive agreements or understanding with any prospective business combination candidates.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015

We had a net loss of $(47,831) during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to a net loss of $(9,067) during the same period ended March 31, 2015.  The change is explained below.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 totaled $ 21,224 (2015- $10,977) consisting of $ 11,940 in general and administrative expenses (2015 - $5,567), $4,634 in transfer agent and filing fees (2015 - $1,910) and professional fees of $4,650 (2015 - $3,500).  Operating expenses were greater during the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily as a result of as additional administrative and filing fees as the company initiated certain changes in its management and business direction in anticipation of pursuing new business opportunities in the Information Technology sector.
9


During the three months ended March 31, 2016 the Company incurred financing and interest expenses of $26,608 from the issuance of the $250,000 Convertible Debenture (2015 - nil).

We are subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.  We may fail to adopt a business model and strategize effectively or fail to revise our business model and strategy should industry conditions and competition change. We have limited resources and there is no assurance that future financing will be available to our Company on acceptable terms. These conditions could further impact our business and have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2016, we had current assets of $37,631 and current liabilities of $6,330 resulting in working capital of $ 31,301 compared to $129,243 in current  assets and total current liabilities of $76,718 for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Net cash from (used in) operating activities was $(43,958) and $(7,142) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  Cash from financing activities was $(45,779) and $9,841 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  Cash from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was due to working capital advances from our President during the period.  During the three months ended March 31, 2016, $45,779 was repaid to our President towards the balance of the working capital loan and as at March 31, 2016, our President has been repaid in full.

We generated no revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2016.  We do not anticipate generating any revenues for the foreseeable future.   Since inception, we have used our common stock to raise money to fund our business operations, for corporate expenses and to repay outstanding indebtedness.  We did not receive any cash from the sale of shares during the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

We do not have enough money to meet our cash requirements for the next twelve months, as we have yet to commence operations, have not generated any revenues and there can be no assurance that we can generate significant revenues from operations.   During the next twelve months we expect to incur indebtedness for administrative and professional charges associated with preparing, reviewing, auditing and filing our financial statements and our periodic and other disclosure documents to maintain the Company in good standing.

The Company's management is exploring a variety of options to meet the Company's cash requirements and future capital requirements, including the possibility of equity offerings, debt financing and business combinations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital, and if the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it will unlikely be able to continue as a going concern.

As of the date of this report, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flow to fund our business operations.  The financial statements included in this report have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our obligations in the normal course of business.  If we are not to continue as a going concern, we would likely not be able to realize our assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the financial statements.

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 us and our shareholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in our existing accounting policies and estimates from the disclosures included in our 2015 Form 10-K, except for the newly adopted accounting policies as disclosed in the interim financial statements.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of March 31, 2016.

Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our disclosure controls and procedures resulting in material weaknesses.

Such material weaknesses include: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

As of March 31, 2016 the deficiencies have not been remedied due to our lack of sufficient capital resources.  We are working to remedy our deficiencies.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of March 31, 2016, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the period ended March 31, 2016, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our company's internal control over financial reporting.
