STRATUS CAPITAL CORP

NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE-MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2021

 

 

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Nature of Business

 

Stratus Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (“Stratus Capital,” “the Company,” “We," "Us," or “Our”) is a publicly quoted real estate development company seeking to develop or redevelop residential, commercial or mixed-use properties.

 

History

 

Stratus Capital was incorporated in Delaware on April 13, 2018. Effective June 28, 2018 (the Company’s deemed date of inception), following a corporate reorganization pursuant to a reverse recapitalization, Stratus Capital became the reorganized successor to Ashcroft Homes Corporation, a publicly-quoted real estate company that ceased trading in 2004.

 

Impact of COVID-19

 

We have not commenced substantial operations as yet and consequently have not been directly impacted by the Covid-19 outbreak at this time. However, the detrimental effect of the Covid-19 outbreak on the economy as a whole may have a detrimental impact on our ability to raise funding and commence full scale operations for the foreseeable future.

 

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

 

Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have no ongoing business or income and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 incurred a loss of $37,087 and had an accumulated deficit of $356,149 as of March 31, 2021. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional debt or equity funding to meet our ongoing operating expenses and ultimately in implementing our proposed business plan and establishing profitable operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.

 

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in the understanding of the financial statements. These policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied. The Company has selected December 31 as its financial year end. The Company has not earned any revenue to date.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete 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, 2021 and for the related periods presented, have been included. The results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. These financial statements and related footnotes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed in our Form 10-K on March 31, 2021.

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

 

We maintain cash balances in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 our cash balances were $555 and $39, respectively.

 

Fair Value Measurements:

 

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.

 

Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.

 

Our financial instruments consist of our cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses - related parties and notes payable – related parties. The carrying amounts of our prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses- related parties and notes payable – related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments

 

Related Party Transactions:

 

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of our membership interests including such person's immediate families, (ii) our management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with us, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence our financial and operating decisions. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. See Notes 4, 5 and 7 below for details of related party transactions in the period presented.

 

Leases:

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) as assets, operating lease non-current liabilities, and operating lease current liabilities in our balance sheet. Finance leases are property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other non-current liabilities in the balance sheet.

 

ROU assets represent the right to use an asset for the lease term and lease liability represent the obligation to make lease payment arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over lease term. As most of the leases doesn’t provide an implicit rate. We generally use the incremental borrowing rate on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease

payments at commencement date. The operating ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over lease term.

 

Since June 28, 2018 (Inception), the only lease arrangement we have entered into is a month-to-month lease for a storage unit. This lease has a term of less than 12 months, we have elected to adopt the exemption for short-term leases and have not accounted for it as described above. Effective January 2021 we are no longer renting a storage unit.

 

Income Taxes:

 

The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions:

 

We evaluate tax positions in a two-step process. We first determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is then measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We classify gross interest and penalties and unrecognized tax benefits that are not expected to result in payment or receipt of cash within one year as long-term liabilities in the financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition:

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with customers

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

Service revenues are recognized as the services are performed in proportion to the transfer of control to the customer and real estate revenues are recognized at the time of sale when consideration has been exchanged and title has been conveyed to the buyer. At this time, we have not identified specific planned revenue streams.

 

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we did not recognize any revenue.

 

Advertising Costs:

 

We expense advertising costs when advertisements occur. No advertising costs were incurred during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

Stock-Based Compensation:

 

The cost of equity instruments issued to non-employees in return for goods and services is measured by the fair value of the equity instruments issued in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation.” Measurement date for non-employees is the grant date of the stock-based compensation. The cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued.

 

Net Loss per Share Calculation:

 

Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

No potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments were issued or outstanding during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

Recently Accounting Pronouncements:

 

We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

NOTE 4. PREPAID EXPENSES

 

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the balance of prepaid expenses was $1,625 and $3,250, respectively, which related to the annual disclosure and news service subscription for OTC Markets which is being amortized monthly over the course of the year commencing July 1, 2020.

 

NOTE 5. ACCRUED EXPENSES - RELATED PARTIES

 

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, balances of $162,000 and $153,000, respectively, were due to our current and former officers and directors with respect to accrued compensation.

 

In addition, as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, balances of $16,061 and $12,630 in accrued interest was due on loans made to us by a partnership controlled by one of our directors, who was a former officer of the company and the former principal shareholder and by a trust controlled by our current director, officer and principal shareholder.

 

NOTE 6. NOTE PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, a partnership controlled by one of our directors, who was a former officer of the Company and the former principal shareholder, advanced to us $18,268 (2020 - $13,822) by way of a promissory note to finance our working capital requirements.

 

Effective October 28, 2020, our CEO/CFO entered into a personal guarantee for this loan which became due on March 31, 2020 and was subsequently amended to mature June 30, 2021.

 

The promissory note bears interest at 8% per annum and as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 interest of $15,988 and $12,630, respectively, was accrued with respect to this loan.

 

As at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the balance outstanding under the promissory note was $177,142 and $158,874 respectively.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, a trust controlled by one of our directors, our current officer and principal shareholder advances to us $8,200 by way of a promissory note to finance our working capital requirements.

 

The promissory note bears interest at 8% per annum and is unsecured and dues on demand.

 

As of March 31, 2020 interest of $73 was accrued with respect to this loan.

 

As at March 31, 2021 the balance outstanding under this promissory note was $8,200.

 

 

 

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We were not subject to any legal proceedings during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 or 2020, and, to the best of our knowledge, no legal proceedings are pending or threatened.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

During the years ended December 31, 2020, we rented a storage unit under a month-to-month agreement. The rent was initially $120 a month and was reduced to $87 per month in April 2020 when we moved to a smaller unit. Effective January 2021 we are no longer renting a storage unit.

 

Effective October 1, 2018, we entered into three-year employment agreements with two of our directors and officers. Each individual was entitled to a salary of $36,000 per year and bonuses and stock options to be determined and issued at a later date. The employment agreement for one of one of our officers was terminated by mutual agreement effective September 30, 2020.

 

On February 23, 2021, we entered into a Placement Agent Fee Agreement with CIM Securities, LLC, a Colorado Limited Liability Company (“CIM”) for the Regulation A Offering. We agreed to pay CIM a commission equal to seven percent (7%) in cash on the subscriptions completed, whether through an investor or referrals from CIM’s investors through May 23, 2021.

 

We shall pay a three percent (3%) in non-accountable expenses for the anti-money laundering, due diligence, and legal costs required by the regulations applicable, from the proceeds at the closing of the subscriptions.

 

In addition, contingent upon its success in raising funds, CIM Securities will be issued warrants to purchase Preferred shares at sale price of $10.00 for a period of three years after offering closes. The warrants will be able to be exercised cashless and have piggy-back registration rights for common stock upon conversion. The warrants will be for an amount equal to 7% of the shares sold in the Offering and shall be assignable. The common stock conversion rights shall be those as the Series B provides in the Certificate of Designation.

 

NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

Preferred Stock

 

We are authorized to issue 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001.

 

1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were designated and issued effective January 17, 2019.

 

5,000,000 shares of Series B 10% Cumulative Dividend Convertible Preferred Stock were designated effective December 15, 2020.

 

No other series of preferred stock had been designated or issued at March 31 2020 or December 31, 2020.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

Effective January 17, 2019, we issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, valued by an independent third-party valuation firm using a market approach at $85,500, to one of our directors and a former officer who was also our principal shareholder, for cash consideration of $10,000 and services rendered of $75,500.

 

The shares of Series A Preferred Stock carry super majority voting rights such that they can vote the equivalent of 60% of common stock at all times.

 

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

 

 

Series B Preferred 10% Cumulative Dividend Convertible Stock

 

On December 15, 2020, we designated 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.0001.

 

No shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock have been issued to date.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference immediately after any Senior Securities, as defined and currently the Series A Preferred Stock, and of an amount equal to $10.00 per share.

 

Conversion Rights

 

The conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock shall be 75% of the ten (10) day average market closing price of common stock, for the previous ten business days, divided into $10.00. ($10.00 / by average market closing price previous ten trading days x 75%) = number of common shares.

 

At any time on or after eighteen months after issuance (18 months), immediately upon the listing of our Common Stock on an Approved Stock Exchange pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, and a Form 10/12b Registration, as amended all outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of the Common Stock, at the “Preferred Conversion Rate,” which shall be post reverse-split of the Common Stock as may be necessary for any Exchange listing, and (2) such shares of Series B may not be reissued by us. A condition of this conversion is that a Registration Statement for the conversion shares shall be effective.

 

Dividends

 

The Series B Preferred Stock shall bear dividends, at ten percent (10%) annually, cumulative, based upon a purchase price of $10.00 per share, computed as (10% x $10.00 = $1.00 per share dividend per annum), payable in cash, on or about December 31 of each year, from the date of issue. Payment in cash shall be made on or before January 31 following, at the discretion of the Board.

 

We shall pay a Project Participation Dividend to the Series B Preferred Stock record holders (pro rata to the holder’s ownership of the Series B Preferred Stock) in cash computed based upon 3% of the net sales of our real estate projects, computed annually by March 1 of the following year for the previous year, for so long as the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding. In the event that the Series B Preferred Stock is redeemed or converted during a calendar year, the dividend above shall be pro-rated for the year up to redemption date or conversion date and paid in following year by March 1.

 

Voting Rights

 

Each holder of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of the Common Stock into which such shares of the Series B Preferred Stock are then convertible.

Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001.

 

No shares of common stock were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

In both our Form 10Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 filed on November 16, 2020 and our Form 8K filed on December 4, 2020, we disclosed our intention to issue certain shares of common stock to directors, officers and staff. No such shares have been issued at this time and any such issuances are unlikely to be finalized before Q2 2021.

 

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 21,525,481 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding.

 

Stock Options

 

We have an incentive stock option plan, which provides for the granting by the Board of Directors of stock options to directors and officers for the purchase of authorized but unissued common shares. No stock options have been granted under this plan since its inception.

 

NOTE 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events after March 31, 2021, in accordance with FASB ASC 855 Subsequent Events, through the date of the issuance of these financial statements and has determined there have been no subsequent events for which disclosure is required other than as listed below.

 

Effective April 1, 2021, we filed an amendment to our Form 1-A previously filed on January 15, 2021.

 

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

 

Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks.

 

This Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” or “continue,” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industries in which we may participate; competition within our chosen industry, including competition from much larger competitors; technological advances and failure to successfully develop business relationships.

 

Based on our financial history since inception, our auditor has expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, as of March 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit totaling ($356,149). This raises substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Plan of Operation

 

We intend to be engaged in the real estate and land development business in the United States. We intend to develop a portfolio of development opportunities in various stages along with opportunistic acquisitions and partnerships in our core-markets. We operate solely under Stratus Capital Corp. We have historical presence and management experience in the mid-west and south-east regions. We plan to organize our business into the following operating segments:

 

• Early Stage Land Development
• In-fill Development of Single-Family Attached and Multi-Family Product
• Opportunistic Joint-Ventures, Partnerships, and Lending

 

Organizational Structure

 

Stratus Capital Corporation
Organizational Structure
LAND DEVELOPMENT			COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL & MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT			JOINT-VENTURES, PARTNERSHIPS AND LENDING
ENTITLEMENT			SINGLE & MULTI FAMILY PRODUCT			INFILL JOINT-VENTURES
ASSET REPOSITIONING			SENIOR HOUSING			STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS

Current Projects

 

NOTE:  We reserve the right to add or delete real estate projects or substitute projects in the event that the economics, timing or financing of one or more of the projects, proves to be infeasible under the circumstances. Management will have sole discretion in making those judgments.

 

 

Our procedure for contracting for projects:

 

The identified projects are sought and generated by Peter Gonzalez, our CEO, through his experience and network within in each market. He generally takes an option or purchase contract personally or through an entity he controls, for a period of time during which he performs due diligence on the market, zoning, potential costs, the market absorption projections, local subcontractors and any environmentally issues. If the Company is able to achieve funding sufficient to buy and build any project or projects, Mr. Gonzalez will assign the option or contract positions to the Company, in full, and at no additional consideration or markup so there is no additional cost to the Company. The Company, as it exists with its current funding, is unable to participate in any project until funding under an Offering has been achieved. At this time, there are no pending contracts or agreements due to the uncertainty of funding.

 

Accordingly, there are no contracts for real estate or development under which the Company is obligated in any way to participate or incur any costs, at this time. Mr. Gonzalez has committed, under our conflicts policy, to first offer all projects that meet the consideration criteria, to the Company on the terms that can be negotiated with the sellers and with no markups, and no additional consideration to Mr. Gonzalez.

 

Project Criteria:

 

The Company cannot predict or project any profits on any project as it has no history of development. Our project consideration criteria involve three primary elements:

 

1. Market projections during construction and product marketing period for the project locale.

 

2. Targeted yield of 24+% on cash cost-there is no assurance that this can be attained-it is a project qualification criteria.

 

3. Timely availability of financing for the project costs-equity, bank funding, or a combination, in many instances.

 

Of course, there are many other subordinate considerations such as zoning, utilities, product selection and design, environmental, marketing strategies, that are somewhat variable to individual projects, and cannot be uniformly predicted, or estimated.

 

We are seeking funding through a Regulation A offering currently filed with the SEC on Form 1-A through CIM Securities. The offering is not yet qualified under Regulation A.

 

Summary of current development projects under consideration:

 

Wood Dove Avenue Townhomes, Washington Park Townhomes, Magnolia Park Condos, Grande Oaks Preserve Condos, Miller Street Station Townhomes and Perry Park Townhomes. All projects are located in the Gulf Coast of Florida and Denver, CO markets which are experiencing continuing expansion in employment, residential and commercial development, population growth and resulting housing demand.

 

Business Strategy

 

Our long-term strategy:

 

• Pursuing opportunities within our core markets;

 

• Developing high-quality relationships with our asset partners;

 

• Maintaining a cost-efficient culture; and

 

• Appropriately balancing risk and opportunity.

 

We are committed to improving the communities we work within and enhancing the lifestyle of our neighborhoods. Delivering on this involves thoughtful planning to accommodate the needs of our various customers, homeowners and the surrounding

community. We engage unaffiliated civil and architectural firms to develop and augment existing plans in order to ensure that our developments reflect current market updates to complement our surrounding communities.

 

We intend to acquire our assets in core locations where we can target maximizing long-term shareholder value and operate our business to capitalize on market appreciation and mitigate risks from economic downturns as we recognize the cyclical nature of the national real estate market. We intend to regularly assess our capital allocation strategy to drive shareholder return. We also take advantage of joint venture opportunities, partnerships and lending opportunities as they arise in order to secure asset allocations to share risk and maximize returns.

We intend to execute this strategy by:

 

• Increasing our existing land supply through expanding market presence;

 

• Combining land acquisition and development expertise with development operations;

 

• Maintaining an efficient capital structure;

 

• Selectively investing in joint-ventures, partnerships and lending opportunities; and

 

• Employing and retaining a highly experienced management team with a strong operating track record.

 

Land and Development Strategies

 

Community development includes the acquisition and development of communities, which may include obtaining significant planning and entitlement approvals and completing construction of off-site and on-site utilities and infrastructure. We intend to generally operate as small community developers, but in some communities, we operate solely as merchant builders, in which case, we acquire fully planned and entitled lots and may construct on-site improvements or in-fill opportunities.

 

In order to maximize our expected risk-adjusted return, the allocation of capital for land investment is performed in the discretion of our management (2 persons) at the corporate level with a disciplined approach to overall portfolio management. Macro and micro indices, including but not limited to employment, housing starts, new home sales, re-sales and foreclosures, along with market related shifts in competition, land availability and consumer preferences, are carefully analyzed to determine our land and homebuilding strategy. Our long-term plan is compared on an ongoing basis to current conditions in the marketplace as they evolve and is adjusted to the extent necessary.

 

Community Integration

 

We intend to complement each community or neighborhood and governing municipality we interact with, beginning with an overall community master plan and then determining the specific asset opportunity to maximize returns for our shareholders and the stakeholders of the area. After necessary governmental and other approvals have been obtained, we intend to improve the assets as planned.

 

The life cycle of an asset generally ranges from two to five years, commencing with the acquisition or investment in the asset and continuing through the development phase, concluding with the sale, construction or delivery of product types. The actual life cycle will vary based on the asset type, the development cycle and the general market conditions.

 

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

 

When we commence our business plan of development, based on local market practices, we either directly, or indirectly through our subcontractors, intend to purchase drywall, cement, steel, lumber, insulation and the other building materials necessary to construct the various residential product asset classes we develop. While these materials are generally widely available from a variety of sources, from time to time we may experience material shortages on a localized basis which can substantially increase the price for such materials and our construction process can be slowed. We have multiple sources for the materials we intend to purchase, which will decrease the likelihood that we would experience significant delays due to unavailability of necessary materials.

 

Trades and Labor

 

Our construction, land and purchasing teams will coordinate subcontracting services and supervise all aspects of construction work and quality control. We intend to act as a general contractor for residential projects.

 

Subcontractors perform construction and land development scopes of work, generally under fixed-price contracts. The availability of labor, specifically as it relates to qualified tradespeople, at reasonable prices can be challenging

 

in some markets as the supply chain responds to uneven industry growth and other economic factors that affect the number of people in the workforce.

 

Procurement and Construction

 

We plan to have a comprehensive procurement program that leverages our size and regional presence to achieve efficiencies and cost savings. Our procurement objective is to maximize cost and process efficiencies to ensure consistent utilization of established contractual arrangements.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

Our marketing program will be built out utilizing a balanced approach of corporate support and local expertise to attract potential lot buyers or homebuyers in a focused, efficient and cost-effective manner. Our sales and marketing teams will provide a generalized marketing framework across our regional operations. We hope to maintain product and price level differentiation through market and customer research to meet the need of our homebuilders and homebuyers.

 

The central element of our marketing platform is our web presence at www.StratusCap.com. The main purpose of this website is to connect with potential customers.

 

Competition

 

The land development and homebuilding business is highly competitive and fragmented. We compete with numerous national and local competitors of varying sizes, most of which have greater sales and financial resources than us. We compete primarily on the basis of location, lot availability, product design, quality, service, price and reputation.

 

In order to maximize our sales volumes, profitability and product strategy, we strive to understand our competition and their pricing, product and sales volume strategies and results. Competition among residential land developers and homebuilders of all sizes is based on a number of interrelated factors, including location, lot sizes, reputation, amenities, floor plans, design, quality and price.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

All companies are required to include a discussion of critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of their financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 of our Financial Statements on page 8. These policies were selected because they represent the more significant accounting policies and methods that are broadly applied in the preparation of our financial statements.

In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a material effect on our operations in the immediate future.

 

Management will continue to monitor inflation and evaluate the possible future effects of inflation on our business and operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management including our principal executive officer/principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management has carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company’s disclosure controls and procedures, and determined that they are ineffective. Due to the lack of personnel and outside directors, management acknowledges that there are deficiencies in these controls and procedures. The Company anticipates that with further resources, the Company will expand both management and the board of directors with additional officers and independent directors in order to provide sufficient disclosure controls and procedures.
