Propell Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(A) Description of the Business

We are a company primarily engaged in the on demand e-commerce line of business. We enable turnkey ‘instant’ e-commerce for education, military and media partners, providing all necessary technology, on-demand manufacturing, marketing and fulfillment services at no risk or cost to our partners.

Our primary target markets for our service, called “PropellShops,” can be divided into three groups: schools, including K-12 and college; the armed forces; and independent music bands. Our business model is based upon the formation of strategic partnerships with key targeted companies involved in each of our target markets in order to obtain access to a large number of customers.

The PropellShops system permits partners with little or no technical or graphic expertise to quickly become “Store Owners” and create online shops displaying a wide variety of personalized apparel and other merchandise featuring the school or organization’s brand or other artwork.   The Store Owner then publicizes the shop to its potential customers, and Propell does all manufacturing, billing, customer support and shipping.   

Since Propell does not charge a setup or ongoing fee for e-commerce shops, and merchandise is only manufactured when ordered, the PropellShops system eliminates almost all risk or investment for Store Owners.  They carry no inventory, and Propell handles all fulfillment.  Further, Propell’s “on-demand” system also eliminates minimum order quantities and long lead times.  Propell collects all revenue and then distributes a share of every sale to the Store Owner.

(B) Basis of Presentation & Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, for the period ended December 31, 2009. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(C) Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: the amount allocated to goodwill and other intangible assets, the estimated useful lives for amortizable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, the fair value of warrants and stock options granted for services or compensation, respectively, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing operating losses.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.

(D) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. Revisions to the allowances for doubtful accounts estimates are recorded as an adjustment to bad debt expense. Receivables deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts at the time such receivables are written-off. Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance for doubtful accounts at the time such receivables are written-off. Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance for doubtful accounts. There were no recoveries during the three months ended September 30, 2010.

(E) Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue when all of the following have occurred: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) the service is completed without further obligation, (3) the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company primarily recognizes revenue for services rendered upon completion of the order.

(F) Risks and Uncertainties

The Company's operations will be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated, including the potential risk of business failure. The recent global economic crisis has caused a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets. These conditions not only limit our access to capital, but also make it difficult for our customers, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities.

(G) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.  At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, the Company had no cash equivalents.

The Company minimizes credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the balance exceeded the federally insured limit by $0 and $0, respectively.  

(H) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Items of property and equipment with costs greater than $1,000 are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, as follows:

Description		Estimated Useful Life
Office equipment and furniture		2 to 5 years
Leasehold improvements and fixtures		Lesser of estimated useful life or life of lease

(I) Inventory

Inventory is stated at cost using the FIFO (first in, first out) method.

(J) Long Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. In connection with its CMI subsidiary, the Company took an impairment charge of $85,527 during the year ended December 31, 2009.

(K) Net Loss per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) less preferred dividends for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including the effect of share equivalents. The Company’s share equivalents consist of 1,649,000 stock options and 4,600,434 warrants. Since the Company reported a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, all common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive; as such there is no separate computation for diluted earnings per share.

(L) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, (including accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

(M) Share-Based Payment Arrangements

Generally, all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Share-based

---

 

compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable. The expense resulting from share-based payments are recorded in cost of goods sold or general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations, depending on the nature of the services provided.

(N) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which amends previous guidance to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim as well as annual financial statements in the current economic environment. This pronouncement was effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations; however, these provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820 resulted in additional disclosures with respect to the fair value of our financial instruments.

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events,” which establishes general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This pronouncement was effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our business, results of operations or financial position; however, the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 855 resulted in additional disclosures with respect to subsequent events.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance now codified as FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” as the single source of authoritative non-governmental U.S. GAAP. FASB ASC Topic 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the FASB Codification will be considered non-authoritative. These provisions of FASB ASC Topic 105 were effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and, accordingly, were effective for the current fiscal reporting period. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations, but will impact our financial reporting process by eliminating all references to pre-codification standards. On the effective date of FASB ASC Topic 105, the Codification superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards, and all other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification became non-authoritative.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updated guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. This update requires new disclosures on significant transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy (including the reasons for these transfers) and the reasons for any transfers in or out of Level 3. This update also requires a reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition to these new disclosure requirements, this update clarifies certain existing disclosure requirements. For example, this update clarifies that reporting entities are required to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities rather than each major category of assets and liabilities. This update also clarifies the requirement for entities to disclose information about both the valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. This update became effective for the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will become effective for the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2011. We will not be required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this update does not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

(B) Stock Option Plan

 

In 2008 the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Plan”) for the issuance of up to five (5) million shares of common stock to be granted through incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to officers, other employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. The exercise price of stock options under the Stock Plan is determined by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors, and may be equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. Options become exercisable over various periods from the date of grant, and generally expire ten years after the grant date. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were 1,624,000 and 1,499,000 options issued and outstanding under the Stock Plan, respectively.

In the event of termination, the Company will cease to recognize compensation expense. There is no deferred compensation recorded upon initial grant date, instead, the fair value of the share-based payment is recognized ratably over the stated vesting period.

The Company has applied fair value accounting for all share based payment awards since inception. The fair value of each option or warrant granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes assumptions used in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are as follows:

		Nine Months ended 9/30/2010
Exercise price			$0.15 - $.027
Expected dividends			0%
Expected volatility			150%
Risk fee interest rate			2-02% to 3.59%
Expected life of option			5-10 years
Expected forfeitures			0%

The Company records stock based compensation based upon the stated vested provisions in the related agreements, with recognition of expense recorded on the straight line basis over the term of the related agreement. The vesting provisions for these agreements have various terms as follows:

·

annually over one,  two or three years

·

Monthly over one year

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company granted 150,000 options to employees and consultants having a fair market value of $4,768.

	Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Balance – December 31, 2008	1,075,000		0.50
Granted	749,000	$	0.27
Exercised	0		-

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Plan of Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the notes hereto and our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Where possible, we have tried to identify these forward looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intends,” or similar expressions. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements due to important factors and risks including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition.

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ending September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis we review our estimates and assumptions. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting policies, the policies we believe are most important to the presentation of our financial statements and require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments are outlined below in “Critical Accounting Policies.”

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements  on our current expectations and projections about future events.” These forward-looking statements involve known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions. These statements are based on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. 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. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, other than as required by law. In light of these assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, the forward-looking events discussed in this report might not occur and actual results and events may vary significantly from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

 

Company Overview

Propell Corporation is a Delaware corporation originally formed on January 29, 2008 as CA Photo Acquisition Corp. On April 10, 2008 Crystal Magic, Inc. (“CMI”), a Florida Corporation,  merged with an acquisition subsidiary of Propell’s, which was formed solely for the purpose of the merger of CMI with and into Propell. As part of this transaction, the Company issued an aggregate of 5,400,000 shares to the former shareholders of CMI.

On May 6, 2008, the Company acquired both Mountain Capital, LLC (d/b/a Arrow Media Solutions) (“AMS”) and Auleron 2005, LLC (d/b/a Auleron Technologies) (“AUL”) and made each a wholly owned subsidiary. A total of 2,094,864 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to the members of Mountain Capital, LLC and a total of 136,088 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to the members of AUL.

The mergers were completed in order to form a consolidated enterprise with subsidiaries that each have experience in complementary parts of the imaging and personalized products industries, and to expand their capabilities both online and at retail.

In mid-2009, Management decided to concentrate its efforts and assets on its e-commerce business. Shortly thereafter, AUL and AMS began to wind down operations.  In January 2010, AUL was dissolved. In late 2009, AMS assigned its warranty responsibilities and its inventory to a third party and ceased operations. The Company is in the process of settling with creditors and expects to dissolve AMS by the end of 2010.

OUR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Our Company

We are a Delaware company primarily engaged in the on demand e-commerce line of business. We enable turnkey ‘instant’ e-commerce for education, military and media partners, providing all necessary technology, on-demand manufacturing, marketing and fulfillment services at no risk or cost to our partners.

Our primary target markets for our service, called “PropellShops,” can be divided into three groups: schools, including K-12 and college; the armed forces; and independent music bands. Our business model is based upon the formation of strategic partnerships with key targeted companies involved in each of our target markets in order to obtain access to a large number of customers.

The PropellShops system permits partners with little or no technical or graphic expertise to quickly become “Store Owners” and create online shops displaying a wide variety of personalized apparel and other merchandise featuring the school or organization’s brand or other artwork. The Store Owner then publicizes the shop to its potential customers, and Propell does all manufacturing, billing, customer support and shipping.

Since Propell does not charge a setup or ongoing fee for e-commerce shops, and merchandise is only manufactured when ordered, the PropellShops system eliminates almost all risk or investment for Store Owners. They carry no inventory, and Propell handles all fulfillment. Further, Propell’s “on-demand” system also eliminates minimum order quantities and long lead times. Propell collects all revenue and then distributes a share of every sale to the Store Owner.

Our principal offices are located at 305 San Anselmo Avenue, Suite 300, San Anselmo, CA 94960. Our telephone number is (415) 747-8775. Our fiscal year end is December 31.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management believes that the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed below involve the most complex management judgments due to the sensitivity of the methods and assumptions necessary in determining the related asset, liability, revenue and expense amounts. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are discussed throughout this MD&A, where such policies have a material effect on reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion of the application of these and other accounting policies, refer to the individual Notes to the Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when products are shipped or services are delivered to customers, pricing is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Net revenues include product sales net of returns and allowances.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Estimates are based on historical experience, management expectations for future performance, and other assumptions as appropriate. Key areas affected by estimates include the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets, which is based on such factors as estimated future cash flows.  We re-evaluate estimates on an ongoing basis; therefore, actual results may vary from those estimates.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the fair values of these instruments due to their short-term nature. The carrying amount for borrowings under the financing agreement approximates fair value because of the variable market interest rates charged for these borrowings. We adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements & Disclosures, for financial assets and financial liabilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, which did not have an impact on our financial statements.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We place our cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC insurance limit. We extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial condition. We monitor our exposure for credit losses and maintain allowances for anticipated losses, as required.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

For a discussion of the adoption and potential impacts of recently issued accounting standards, refer to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” section of Note 1, “Reorganization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009, net revenues were $15,081 and $305,212, respectively; cost of goods sold were $10,675 and $53,727, respectively; operating expenses were $341,147 and $545,519, respectively, and other income was $10 and other expense was $74, respectively. Results from the three months ended September 30, 2009 include results from our Auleron and CMI operations, which were discontinued in late 2009 and June 2010, respectively. Results for the three months ended September 30, 2010 are solely attributable to our ecommerce operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, our e-commerce business generated $5,629 in revenue with a gross profit of $2,030. Year-over-year growth in revenue for our e-commerce business was 267%   In addition, the net loss from discontinued operations was $191 and $0, respectively. All totaled, the Company posted a net loss of $336,922 and $294,108, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009 revenue decreased 95% or $290,131; however since for the period ended September 30, 2010 both AMS and CMI were not consolidated into the financial statements, any comparison between the two periods would not be indicative of overall company performance.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, net revenues were $62,013 and $669,661, respectively; cost of goods sold were $46,910 and $160,152, respectively; operating expenses were $963,292 and $1,445,334, respectively, and other income (expense) was $(14,986) and $107,450, respectively. Results from the nine months ended September 30, 2009 include results from our Auleron and CMI operations, which were discontinued in late 2009 and June 2010, respectively. Unlike prior quarters, the revenue generated during the last three months has been solely derived from our ecommerce operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our e-commerce business generated $8,954 in revenue with a minimal gross profit. Year-over-year growth in revenue for our e-commerce business was 593%. In addition, net loss from discontinued operations was $78,301 and $0, respectively. All totaled, the Company posted a net loss of $1,041,476 and $828,375, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009 revenue decreased 91% or $607,648; however since for the period ended September 30, 2010 both AMS and CMI were not consolidated into the financial statements other than to reflect the discontinuance of their operations, any comparison between the two periods would not be indicative of overall company performance.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 - Cash Flow Activity  

Propell’s primary sources and uses of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, included losses from continuing operations, adjusted for non-cash items of income and expense and working capital needs, offset by an influx of $622,038 in cash from notes payable. Net cash used by operating activities from continuing operations was $635,519 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily as a result of operating expenses. Propell’s primary sources and uses of cash from operating activities for the period were losses from operations, as adjusted for non-cash items of income and expense which included

·

A decrease in accounts receivables of $1,721 brought about by closing our Crystal Magic operation

·

The write off of all inventory of $95,144 related to our CMI subsidiary partially offset by $736 in inventory held by PropellShops.

·

A marked increase of $192,161 in accounts payable and due to related parties

·

An increase in accrued expenses, taxes and deferred revenue of $152,866 manly consisting of $99,518 in interest due on convertible notes

Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was $5,922 attributable to PropellShops web development.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $587,012 which included $522,038 from our notes offering that convert into common stock, $100,000 from a short-term note, offset $45,000 used to reacquire common stock. The convertible note is convertible to shares of the Company’s common stock at the lenders option at the lower of $0.27 per share or a twenty-five percent (25%) discount from the next issuance of common stock by the Company. The original note was due on February 28, 2010. In March 2010, the note was amended to change the due date to June 30, 2010 and the maximum amount of the Note was increased to $1 Million, of which the Company has borrowed $942,500 as of September 30, 2010. In July 2010, the holder of the convertible note agreed to convert the note to shares immediately preceding the closure of a fund raising of at least $1.5 million.

Our ability to continue to execute on our plan of operations is contingent on our ability to raise additional capital to further develop our Internet initiatives and expand our marketing of our existing product line.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

To date, our primary sources of cash have been funds raised from the sale of our securities, including convertible debt offerings, notes and revenue derived from our CMI subsidiary; however as a result of the cessation of our CMI operations we will no longer receive revenues from CMI, and therefore will have to rely on outside funding until such time as our PropellShops product derives enough revenue to sustain business operations. Although we anticipate that our Internet business will eventually provide the needed revenue, it is difficult for us to assess exactly when this will occur.

In an effort to improve our operating results and increase our revenues we will continue to seek strategic partners. On June 14, 2010 we and our wholly owned subsidiary entered into a merger agreement with Designbyhumans.com. Upon closing of the Merger Agreement, DBH was to merge with and into the Acquisition Sub with DBH being the surviving entity. DBH’s obligation to consummate the Merger was conditioned upon us receiving a commitment for financing of at least $1,500,000 and the conversion by all current note holders, other than note holders of Crystal Magic, Inc., of their debt to equity. On September 20, 2010, due to our inability to receive a commitment for financing, DBH terminated the Merger Agreement. We will continue to discuss a merger if we are successful in raising the requisite financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available or if available that it will be on favorable terms and that we can complete a merger with DBH.

We have incurred negative cash flow from operations since we started our business. We have spent, and expect to continue to spend, substantial amounts in connection with implementing our business strategy, including our planned product development effort. Based on our current plans, we believe that our cash will not be sufficient to enable us to meet our planned operating needs in the next 12 months.

Our CMI subsidiary is in default on four separate loans which in the aggregate is approximately $848,916, and which are either made or guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). In September 2010, the bank managing the loans for the SBA seized substantially all of the assets of CMI and subsequently sold these assets.

However, the actual amount of funds we will need to operate is subject to many factors, some of which are beyond our control. We have based our estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong. We may need to obtain additional funds sooner or in greater amounts than we currently anticipate. Potential sources of financing include strategic relationships, public or private sales of our shares or debt and other sources. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets when conditions are favorable due to our long-term capital requirements. We do not have any committed sources of financing at this time, and it is uncertain whether additional funding will be available when we need it on terms that will be acceptable to us, or at all. If we raise funds by selling additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into common stock, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we are not able to obtain financing when needed, our partnership with DBH may be at risk and we may be unable to carry out the rest of our business plan. As a result, we may have to significantly limit our operations and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially harmed.

The Company leases its office space on a month-to-month lease.  It has no other lease obligations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act“), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2010 were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company 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, and that such information was recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s CEO has concluded that, as of the date of the filing of this Amendment, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective and that all material weaknesses and significant deficiencies have been completely remediated due to the retention of an additional bookkeeper and a consultant who are integrally involved with the preparation of the financial statements and all disclosure.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

 There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
