SERVICE TEAM, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AT February 28, 2017 (UNAUDITED)

 

 

 

Service Team Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on June 6, 2011.  The Company was organized to comply with the warranty obligations of electronic devices manufactured by companies outside of the United States.  The business proved to be unprofitable and the Company reduced its warranty and repair operations.  On June 5, 2013, Service Team Inc. acquired Trade Leasing, Inc. for 4,000,000 shares of its common stock, a commonly held company.  Trade Leasing, Inc., a California corporation, was incorporated on November 1, 2011, and commenced business January 1, 2013.  Trade Leasing, Inc. is principally involved in the manufacturing, maintenance and repair of truck bodies.  

 

The Company has established a fiscal year end of August 31.

 

 

 

The consolidated financial statements presented in this report are the combined financial reports of Trade Leasing, Inc. and Service Team Inc. 

 

The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

 

The consolidated financial statements present the Balance Sheet, Statements of Operations, Shareholders' Deficit and Cash Flows of the Company. These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The accompanying audited, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein.

 

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Service Team Inc. and Trade Leasing, Inc. both of which are under common control and ownership. The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiaries listed above. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements. 

 

 

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

   

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit as of February 28, 2017 of $2,568,157. The Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through placement of our common stock in order to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in order to continue as a going concern. The Company is funding its initial operations by issuing common shares and debt.  We cannot be certain that capital will be provided when it is required.

 

Cash and equivalents include investments with initial maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash balances at credit-worthy financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000. There were no cash equivalents at February 28, 2017, or August 31, 2016.

 

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, are cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits.

 

 

All accounts receivable are due thirty (30) days from the date billed. If the funds are not received within thirty (30) days the customer is contacted to arrange payment. The Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectable accounts receivable. All accounts were considered collectable at period end and no allowance for bad debts was considered necessary.

 

The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Trade Leasing, Inc., has more than 400 customers. Three customers represented about 23%, 11% and 10% of total receivables as of February 28, 2017.  One customer represented about 20% of total receivables as of August 31, 2016. During the six month period ended February 28, 2017, the Company had one customer that represented 14% of total sales.  During the six month period ended February 29, 2016, the Company had one customer that represented about 22% of total sales. 

 

 

The Company does not own inventory, materials are purchased as needed from local suppliers; therefore, there was no additional inventory on hand at February 28, 2017 or August 31, 2016. 

 

 

Equipment, vehicles and furniture, which are recorded at cost, consist primarily of fabrication equipment and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets (generally 15 years or less). Costs incurred for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and expenditures for major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated remaining useful lives. There was $3,636 and $3,042 of depreciation expense during the six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, respectively. 

Net property and equipment were as follows at February 28. 2017 and August 31, 2016: 

 

 

 

Service Team Inc., effective September 1, 2015, leased new facilities at 1818 Rosslynn Avenue, Fullerton, California, to manufacture its products.  The Company has moved from 10633 Ruchti Road, South Gate, California, effective October 1, 2015.  The new facility is leased for six and one half years at a price of $10,000 per month, for the first six months; and, $14,000 per month thereafter.  Service Team Inc pays for the fire insurance and property taxes on the building estimated to be approximately $2,000 per month. The location consists of three acres of land and one building of approximately 30,000 square feet.   The facility is approximately one-third larger than the prior facility in South Gate. 

Our principal executive offices are located in 600 square feet in a building at 18482 Park Villa Place, Villa Park, California 92861. The space is furnished by Hallmark Venture Group, Inc., a related party, at no charge.

 

 

From time to time, the Company may issue convertible notes that may contain an imbedded beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature exists on the date a convertible note is issued when the fair value of the underlying common stock to which the note is convertible into is in excess of the remaining unallocated proceeds of the note after first considering the allocation of a portion of the note proceeds to the fair value of warrants, if related warrants have been granted. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a debt discount with a corresponding amount to additional paid in capital. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the note using the effective interest method.

 

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 on June 6, 2011. Under this FASB, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

 

The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard including: cash, convertible notes payable, accrued expenses, promissory notes payable, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:   

 

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.  The fair value of the Company's cash is based on quoted prices and therefore classified as Level 1. 

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, promissory notes, convertible notes and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair market value due to their short term nature.

 

The following table presents assets and liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value as of February 28, 2017 on a recurring basis:

 

 

The following table presents assets and liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value as of August 31, 2016 on a recurring basis:

 

 

 

 

Trade Leasing Division

 

The Trade Leasing Division receives orders from customers to build or repair truck bodies. The company builds the requested product. At the completion of the product the truck is delivered to the customer.  If the customer accepts the product Trade Leasing Inc. issues an invoice to the customer for the job. The invoice is entered into our accounting system and is recognized as revenue at that time.

 

In the Trade Leasing Division we use the completed contract method for truck bodies built, which typically have construction periods of 15 days or less. Contracts are considered complete when title has passed, the customer has accepted the product and we do not retain risks or rewards of ownership of the truck bodies. Losses are accrued if manufacturing costs are expected to exceed manufacturing contract revenue.  Manufacturing expenses are primarily composed of aluminum cost, which is the largest component of our raw materials cost and the cost of labor. 

 

 

 

Service Products Division

 

The Service Products Division shut down in fiscal 2013 repaired or replaced electrical appliances (mostly televisions), covered by warranties or insurance companies.  The Company had a price list of its services that sets forth a menu of charges for various repairs or replacements.  At the completion of the repair, an invoice was prepared itemizing the parts used and fixed labor rate costs billed by the Company.  The invoice was entered into our accounting system and recognized as revenue at that time. Our invoice was paid by the warranty insurance companies.  We did not take title to the product at any point during this process.

 

As described above, in accordance with the requirements of ASC 605-10-599, the Company recognized revenue when (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists (contracts); (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the seller's price is fixed or determinable (per the customer's contract); and (4) collectability is reasonably assured (based upon our credit policy).

 

 

The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more readily determinable. The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of standards issued by the FASB. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

 

In December of 2004, the FASB issued a standard which applies to transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services and also applies to liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are based on the fair value of those equity instruments. For any unvested portion of previously issued and outstanding awards, compensation expense is required to be recorded based on the previously disclosed methodology and amounts. Prior periods presented are not required to be restated. We adopted the standard as of inception.  The Company has not issued any stock options to its Board of Directors and officers as compensation for their services.  If options are granted, they will be accounted for at a fair value as required by the FASB ASC 718.

  

 

The Company adopted the standard issued by the FASB, which requires presentation of basic earnings or loss per share and diluted earnings or loss per share. Basic income (loss) per share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS") are similarly calculated using the treasury stock method except that the denominator is increased to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if dilutive securities at the end of the applicable period were exercised.  During the three and six month periods ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, because the Company operations resulted in net losses, no additional dilutive securities were included in the Diluted EPS as that would be anti-dilutive to the resulting diluted earnings per share.

 

 

 

 

On January 23, 2015, Service Team Inc. filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada a Certificate of Designation for 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  The Designation gives the Series A Preferred Stock 500 votes per share.   Series A Preferred Stock were not entitled to receive dividends, any liquidation preference, or conversion rights.  On October 16, 2015, the Designation of Preferred Stock was amended to allow Preferred Shareholders to receive dividends in an amount equal to dividends paid per share on Common Stock.  On July 27, 2016, an amendment was filed to increase the voting rights of the preferred stock from 500 votes per share to 10,000 votes per share. The Series A share amendments valued according to the additional voting rights and dividend rights assigned. The value assigned to the dividend rights was derived from a model utilizing future economic value of the dividends and was $525 which was recorded on the grant date as stock based compensation.  The value assigned to the voting rights was derived from a model utilizing control premiums to value the voting control of the preferred stock and was $83,000 which was recorded on the grant date as stock based compensation.  

 

On September 1, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $8,257 of its Note in the amount of into 16,851,020 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

On September 14, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $5,937 of its Note in the amount of into 12,116,327 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

On October 18, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $6,869 of its Note in the amount of into 9,862,168 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

On November 8, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $6,523 of its Note in the amount of into 10,353,968 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

On November 10, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $13,710 of its Note in the amount of into 21,761,905 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

On November 21, 2016, Tangiers Investment Group LLC converted $15,000 of its Note in the amount of into 23,809,524 shares of common stock. As the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note agreement, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of this conversion.

 

 

 

During September 2015, Tangiers Investment Group LLC was issued 1,990,950 shares as payment for the $22,000 of subscriptions payable accrued at August 31, 2015.

 

We have accounted for stock based compensation under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards codification (ASC) 718-10-55.  (Prior authoritative literature:  FASB Statement 123 (R), Share-based payment.)  This statement requires us to record any expense associated with the fair value of stock based compensation.  Determining fair value requires input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility.  Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

The Company evaluated the convertible note and determined that the shares issuable pursuant to the conversion option were determinate due to the conversion price floor and, as such, does not constitute a derivative liability as the Company has sufficient authorized shares and a conversion floor of $0.0005. In the event that the authorized shares were not sufficient, the Company has obtained authorization from a majority of shareholders such that the appropriate number of shares will be available or issuable for settlement to occur.

 

deferred tax assets The Company accounts for income taxes under standards issued by the FASB. Under those standards, and liabilities are recognized for future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized through future operations.

 

No provision for federal income taxes has been recorded due to the net operating loss carry forwards totaling approximately $938,800 as of February 28, 2017, that will be offset against future taxable income.  The available net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $938,800 will expire in various years through 2035. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the future tax loss carry forwards.

 

 

 

The actual income tax provisions differ from the expected amounts calculated by applying the statutory income tax rate to the Company's loss before income taxes.  The components of these differences are as follows at February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016:

 

During the period from November 29, 2011 until June 1, 2012, the Company sold 541,000 shares to various individuals for a total cash consideration of $54,100. The funds were used for operating capital of the Company including rent and payroll. Our rescission offer covers twenty-five shareholders (25) for a total of 541,000 shares originally sold for $54,100. During the three month period ended November 30, 2015, as the rescission offer expired, the $54,100 was reversed from the liability resulting in a gain in other income and expense of $54,100 as the Company is no longer required to return funds to investors. In addition, the Company has not been requested by any investor to repay funds from these stock sales during the period from November 29, 2011 through June 1, 2012.

On September 1, 2015, Service Team Inc leased an industrial building located on three acres of land at 1818 E. Rosslynn Avenue, Fullerton, California.  The lease rate is $10,000 per month for the first six months; then $14,000 per month for the remaining six years of the lease.  Service Team Inc is obligated to pay the fire insurance and property taxes on the building that are estimated to be $2,000 per month.

 

Our principal executive offices are located in 600 square feet in a building at 18482 Park Villa Place, Villa Park, California 92861. The space is furnished by Robert L. Cashman, a related party, at no charge. 

 

Our operations during the six-month periods ending February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, were managed through two operating segments, as shown below. We disclose the results of each of our operating segments in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Each of the operating segments was managed under a common structure chaired by our Chief Executive Officer and discrete financial information for both of the segments was available. Our Chief Executive Officer used the operating results of each of the two operating segments for performance evaluation and resource allocation and, as such, was the chief operating decision maker. The activities of each of our segments from which they earned revenues and incurred expenses are described below:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Overview of Our Company

 

Service Team Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on June 6, 2011.  The Company was organized to comply with the warranty obligations of electronic devices manufactured by companies outside of the United States.  The business proved to be unprofitable and the Company reduced its warranty and repair operations.  On June 5, 2013, Service Team Inc. acquired 25,000 common shares of Trade Leasing, Inc., granting 100% ownership, for 4,000,000 shares of its common stock; in addition, both entities are under common control.   Trade Leasing, Inc., a California corporation, was incorporated on November 1, 2011, and commenced business January 1, 2013.  Trade Leasing, Inc. is principally involved in the manufacturing, maintenance and repair of truck bodies.  Service Team Inc. and Trade Leasing Inc. have not been involved in a bankruptcy, receivership or any similar proceeding. The acquisition of Trade Leasing Inc. is a major change in the operations of the company. Trade Leasing is being operated as a separate division of Service Team Inc.

 

Trade Leasing Division.  This division is involved in the manufacture and repair of truck bodies.  The Company manufactures truck bodies that are attached to a truck chassis which consists of an engine, drive train, a frame with wheels, and in some cases, a cab.  The truck chassis is manufactured by third parties that are major automotive or truck companies.  These companies do not typically build specialized truck bodies.  The company is also involved in other products used by the trucking industry.   The company operates a complete manufacturing and repair facility in South Gate, California.  The facility manufactures both custom and standard production truck bodies in approximately 70 different models designed to fill the specialized demands of the user.   The vans are available for hauling dry freight or refrigerated freight.  The refrigerated vans are built with two to four inches of foam insulating that is sprayed in place for hauling refrigerated products such as meats, vegetables, flowers and similar products.  The Company installs different types of cooling systems in the trucks.  This varies from motor driven units installed outside the van body or refrigeration units driven off the engine of the truck.  Some refrigerated trucks use a system called "cold plate" where a large metal plate is cooled by power while the truck is parked.  The power is then unplugged and the truck will stay cool for many hours.  The Company's customers are auto dealers and users of trucks; such as dairies, food distributors and local delivery. The company has approximately 400 customers. One customer South Bay Ford represented more than 10% of sale in the last 12 months. The company is not dependent on a few major customers. Trade Leasing purchases raw materials from approximately 25 suppliers.  There are several hundred similar suppliers of comparable materials in the local area. Trade Leasing Inc. purchases refrigeration units from Thermoking Corporation a division of United Technologies and Carrier Corporation, a division of Ingersol Rand Corporation. The two companies represent more than 80% of the refrigeration unit market. There are several other manufactures of refrigeration units that represent a small part of the market. Trade Leasing Inc. employs 23 factory workers and three management personnel.  The management personnel make all of the sales and manage the factory. The company has all of the government licenses necessary to conduct its business. These include 9 different city, county and state licenses covering vehicle transportation, air quality, hazard waste (Paint), land or building use, and sales tax.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of February 28, 2017, we had assets of $430,739 including current assets of $366,595.   We have accounts payable of $169,359, convertible notes payable of $73,000, promissory notes payable of $86,734 accrued expenses of $150,998.  Hallmark Ventures Group, Inc. is prepared to advance us additional funds as needed. Accrued expenses are for work performed by employees during the organizational and operational stages of the Company. There is no firm date for which these are to be paid. It is to be repaid when we have funds available.  Since inception we have also raised $354,382 from the sale of our common stock.  We believe our ability to achieve commercial success and continued growth will be dependent upon our continued access to capital either through additional sale of our equity or cash generated from operations. We will seek to obtain additional working capital through the sale of our securities. We will attempt to obtain additional capital through bank lines of credit; however, we have no agreements or understandings with third parties at this time.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

 

Our Principal Executive Officer does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, other than those stated above, during our most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
