Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Principal Place of Business

 

Our principal offices are located at 13668-B Valley Blvd., City of Industry, CA 91746.

 

Description of Business

 

We are a consumer electronics company, incorporated in the state of Nevada and doing business under the brand name Sigmac. Our business consists of the design, assembly, import, marketing and sale of our models of Sigmac branded flat panel televisions into the US market.

 

We believe that we have the opportunity to make Sigmac a significant brand in the consumer electronics industry. Using strategic business partnerships with companies in China and the United States, we intend to develop brand recognition for Sigmac products in the consumer electronics markets. Our ultimate goal is to become the recognized China-U.S. brand in a manner similar to that of Sony and Samsung for Japan and Korea, respectively. We are developing a U.S. based sales, marketing, and service operation which will work in concert with the high quality manufacturing conducted by our suppliers in China and Korea. In addition to allowing us to develop immediate sales and brand growth in the U.S., we anticipate that our relationship with Chinese suppliers and manufacturers will ultimately provide us an opportunity to gain future brand recognition and market share in the rapidly expanding Chinese consumer electronics market.

 

3

We perceive that the market for consumer electronics in the U.S. has been segmented into three market tiers:

 

  • The First Tier consists of brands so well established that the end user will pay a significant price premium for the branded product compared to products with identical features and benefits
  • The Second Tier consists of brands that the consumer has become familiar with and generally trusts. The consumer will, however, shop amongst brands in the Second Tier based upon price.
  • The Third Tier consists of brands that are compared for features and benefits but are purchased by the consumer principally upon price comparisons.

We believe that we have a unique opportunity to establish Sigmac branded televisions and other products, initially in the Third Tier and, subsequently, as a leading presence within the Second Tier as a result of the following developments in the flat panel television market:

 

1.       The previous volume leader in the US market has, through pricing changes, recently repositioned itself into the First Tier.

 

2.       Sony, the brand recognition leader, has announced the elimination of its manufacturing operations in consumer electronics and has become strictly a reseller of other companies’ products with the Sony brand.

 

 3.       During the recession, a number of Third Tier brands became unprofitable and left the market place.

 

As a result of these developments, national retailers are commencing a search for a stable, knowledgeable company that can provide products with Second Tier pricing together with excellent service and industrial designs. We believe Sigmac is poised to fill this demand. It should be noted, however, that this process likely will take two years or more to accomplish.

 

We believe that a major change is currently taking place in consumer electronics. Innovatively designed products will seek to offer a fuller home entertainment experience beyond simply television, and will be designed to work with multiple connected devices to provide connected family entertainment. Televisions and related devices will increasingly have multiple uses and offer multiple types of connectivity to enhance family enjoyment. We intend to develop and distribute devices which are connected to the internet, audio systems, video and audio conferencing, and social and business networking.

Our Products

 

For at least the next fiscal year, we expect to offer mostly Tier 3 pricing for our Sigmac branded televisions and for any other related products we may develop and bring to market. Through the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, we imported and sold multiple models of flat panel televisions into the market, ranging in size from 15” to 55”. We believe that the features, quality and price of our televisions compare favorably with those offered by our competitors.

 

The engineering and design work for our products has been performed by Core ACH, Inc., based in Hong Kong. All of our televisions feature high-brightness, high-contrast, high-definition LCD screens, multiple HDMI inputs, component and composite inputs, built in ATSC, Clear QAM and NTSC tuners, tri-lingual menus, convenient sleep timer and favorite channel features, and digital comb filters for fast and accurate color processing. We also sell models that include one or more premium features, such as WIFI connectivity, LED backlighting, 3D, large screen sizes, fast refresh rates, and higher contrast ratios.

 

Suppliers and Inventory

 

During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, most of our product was imported as fully finished from our factory suppliers in China. For the balance, we imported the component parts from China or Korea and conducted final assembly of our finished products at our facility in City of Industry, California.

 

We have established a very compact supply chain from order date to delivery date to maintain minimal inventory exposure to difficult “Price Protection” requirements. In general, Price Protection refers to standard industry contract terms from large retailers which will require us to decrease the price of a product and issue credits to customers when prices are dropped generally. As designed, this protects our retailer customers from losses on their current inventory by shifting the high risk of loss from price reductions onto us.

 

Our ability to obtain finished products and component parts is presently severely constrained by our limited access to sufficient working capital. At present, our existing Chinese suppliers have refused to provide us with additional credit, rendering us unable to obtain products to fill orders from our customers. We are presently negotiating with these suppliers to provide us with additional credit but there can be no assurance what we will be successful in obtaining that additional credit on acceptable terms, or at all. We are also seeking equity and debt capital from other sources. With additional capital, we would be able to purchase additional product necessary for our current and expected distribution opportunities as well as negotiate more favorable supplier terms. In addition, if we are able to increase our equity base, we expect that we will be able to obtain better terms on our current accounts receivable and inventory financing. If we are unable to obtain that additional credit or capital, however, we will be unable to fill our existing orders or to make any additional sales and implementation of our business plan will be adversely affected.

 

Currently, we are dependent on two suppliers for all of our products and product components. Anhui Technology Import & Export Co. and AHCOF International Development Co., Ltd., both of Anhui province in China, supplied 90% of our products and product components during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012.

Item 2. Properties

 

During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, we operated out of approximately 10,000 square feet of office and warehouse space which we subleased from an entity controlled by our COO and director, Edward Wang, on a month-to-month basis on Valley Boulevard in City of Industry, California, at a rate of $7,000 per month. We expect to move out of this facility in the coming months in an attempt to reduce costs and streamline our operations until such time as we have sufficient working capital to be able to routinely perform final assembly of our products in the United States.

Market Information

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”), which is sponsored by FINRA. The OTCBB is a network of security dealers who buy and sell stock. The dealers are connected by a computer network that provides information on current "bids" and "asks", as well as volume information. Our shares are quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol “SNPD.OB.”

 

The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid quotations for our common stock for each of the periods indicated as reported by the OTCBB. These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

Penny Stock

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

As of June 11, 2012, we had thirty-four (34) holders of record of our common stock.

 

Dividends

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”) provides that a corporation may pay dividends out of surplus, out the corporation's net profits for the preceding fiscal year, or both provided that there remains in the stated capital account an amount equal to the par value represented by all shares of the corporation's stock raving a distribution preference.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

 

To date, we have not adopted a stock option plan or other equity compensation plan and have not issued any stock, options, or other securities as compensation.

 

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

None.

 

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Results of Operations for the Years Ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011.

 

We generated gross revenues of $7,141,976 during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012. Our cost of goods sold was $7,037,070, resulting in a gross profit of $104,906. Our total operating expenses during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012 were $1,520,428. Our loss from operations was therefore $1,415,522. We incurred net other expenses of $55,961 during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012. Our loss for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012 was therefore $1,471,483. Our expenses during the fiscal year consisted of general and administrative expenses of $223,697, salaries and wages of $497,308, professional fees of $386,996, sales commissions of $89,173, rent expense of $74,202, promotional and marketing of $248,052, and consulting fees of $1,000.

 

By comparison, during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2011, we generated no revenues and incurred total expenses and a net loss of $47,966.

 

Approximately 78% of our revenue earned during the year ended February 29, 2012 was generated from two customers, Fry’s Electronics and Costco, representing net sales of $4,716,939 and $824,700, respectively. During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, our products were sold primarily under promotional pricing in order to generate growing consumer interest in our products as they were brought to market. Various discounts, points, and price reductions granted to retailers to market our product resulted in a reduction of our gross revenues in the amount of $450,231 as compared to the revenues which would have been generated by product sales under our listed regular prices. As a result, we experienced only a nominal gross profit for the twelve months ended February 29, 2012. As we move forward and continue to establish our brand, we expect that we will have to rely less on promotional pricing to generate sales of our products and, therefore, we anticipate that our gross profit margin, as well as our total sales, will increase; contingent, however, upon our obtaining sufficient working capital.

 

Our revenues, cost of goods sold, and expenses during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012 increased dramatically as compared to the same period last year because, commencing in April of 2011, we abandoned our original line of product sales and began to design, market, and sell our SIGMAC-branded flat screen televisions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of February 29, 2012, we had current assets in the amount of $2,072,315, consisting of cash in the amount of $493,759, accounts receivable of $1,047,023, inventory for resale of $494,076, and prepaid expenses of $37,457. As of February 29, 2012, the bulk of our outstanding accounts receivable were amounts due from our two largest customers together with amounts held in reserve by our factoring firm, PBCC. At fiscal year end, we had accounts receivable from Fry’s Electronics in the amount of $501,111 and from Costco in the amount of $288,077. Total amounts held in reserve by our factoring firm at fiscal year-end were $247,835

 

Our current liabilities as of February 29, 2012 were $3,584,393, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $3,334,383, accrued compensation owed to related parties of $246,500, and customer deposits of $3,510. Our working capital deficit as of February 29, 2012 was therefore $1,512,078. Our largest accounts payable as of February 29, 2012, were to our two primary Chinese suppliers, Anhui Technology Import & Export Co. in the amount of $1,933,960 and to AHCOF International Development Co., Ltd., in the amount of $709,400.

 

In December of 2011, we obtained a credit facility from A/R Funding to finance our outstanding accounts receivable. The cost of this funding was one and one-half percent (1.50%) per month and secured by an assignment for security of the receivables financed. Under the Agreement, A/R Funding would finance up to a maximum amount of $4,000,000 in receivables, with a minimum sum of $300,000 in receivables to be financed per calendar quarter. As protection against possible returns, payment disputes, and similar items, A/R Funding could reserve an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of the of the face amount of the receivables financed. Within two (2) days of receiving payment on an assigned receivable, A/R Funding would make available the reserves held on the individual paid receivable, less any deductions held by customers, charges or expenses, and any invoices that A/R Funding had not been paid within 90 days of billing date or when A/R Funding determined the invoice to be in dispute or not payable, whichever is earliest. In late December of 2011, we cancelled our agreement with A/R Funding. During the period the agreement was effective, A/R Funding purchased trade receivables with a face value of $2,092,248.

 

On January 11, 2012, we replaced our accounts receivable financing arrangement with A/R Funding with a similar arrangement from Pacific Business Capital Corporation (“PBCC”). The cost of the funding from PBCC is a discount of .813% of the gross amount of each receivable factored through PBCC, with an additional discount of .054% per day for accounts receivable that remain unpaid fifteen (15) days after they are purchased by PBCC. Under the agreement, PBCC will advance a portion of the invoice upon factoring (generally 70%), and reserve the remainder of the invoice amount. The reserve will be applied to amounts due from us to PBCC, with the remainder of the reserve funds to be rebated to us on an invoice-by-invoice basis. Our obligations to PBCC are secured by all of our assets, and are guaranteed by our officers, Edward Meadows and Edward Wang. During the year ended February 29, 2012, we sold total trade receivables to PBCC in the face amount of $851,829 at a discount of $6,925, for proceeds of $596,280, net of reserves. The amount held in reserve by PBCC as February 29, 2012 totaled $247,835.

 

Our ability to obtain finished products and component parts is presently severely constrained by our limited access to sufficient working capital. At present, our existing Chinese suppliers have refused to provide us with additional credit, rendering us unable to obtain products to fill orders from our customers. We are presently negotiating with these suppliers to provide us with additional credit but there can be no assurance what we will be successful in obtaining that additional credit on acceptable terms, or at all. We are also seeking equity and debt capital from other sources. With additional capital, we would be able to purchase additional product necessary for our current and expected distribution opportunities as well as negotiate more favorable supplier terms. In addition, if we are able to increase our equity base, we expect that we will be able to obtain better terms on our current accounts receivable and inventory financing. If we are unable to obtain that additional credit or capital, however, we will be unable to fill our existing orders or to make any additional sales and implementation of our business plan will be adversely affected.

 

In addition to the cost of producing and delivering product for sale, we anticipate incurring approximately $1,600,000 in general operating expenses over the course of the next year to support our growth.

9

 

Going Concern

 

We have negative working capital and have incurred losses since inception. These factors create substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on generating cash from the sale of our common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling our equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund our capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance we will be successful in these efforts.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is deemed material.

 

Purchase or Sale of Equipment

 

We do not expect to purchase or sell any plant or significant equipment in the coming fiscal year.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors of

Southern Products, Inc.

City of Industry, California

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Southern Products, Inc. (the “Company”) as of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

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

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Southern Products, Inc. as of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has negative working capital, and has incurred losses from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 3. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements

February 29, 2012

 

NOTE 1 – Organization, History and Business

 

Organization

Southern Products, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 23, 2010 and is doing business as SIGMAC USA. The Company is a consumer electronics company utilizing its d.b.a., SIGMAC USA to develop and brand its products. The Company began its plan of operations by entering into agreements for the sale of branded, low-priced televisions in the United States. The business consists of the design, assembly, import, marketing and sale of our models of Sigmac branded flat panel televisions into the US market. Upon establishment of the SIGMAC brand, management intends to expand its market to international consumers.

 

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures

 

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

Concentration of Credit and Business Risk

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risks consist primarily of cash. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, may at times, exceed federally-insured limits.

 

Of the Company’s revenue earned during the year ended February 29, 2012, approximately 78% was generated through vendor agreements with two customers, Fry’s Electronics and COSTCO representing net sales of $4,716,939 and $824,700, respectively.

 

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable is reported at the customers’ outstanding balances less any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable.

 

An allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to operations in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible accounts at a level management believes is adequate to cover any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on historical write-off percentages and information collected from individual customers. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when collectability is determined to be permanently impaired. As of February 29, 2012, management has deemed all receivables to be collectible, and has not historically recorded bad debt expenses; therefore no allowance has been recorded .

 

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a standard cost basis that approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Market is determined based on net realizable value. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. As of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, finished goods inventory was $494,076 and $1,000 respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has financial instruments whereby the fair value of the financial instruments could be different from that recorded on a historical basis in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable. The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments approximate their fair values as of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011 due to their short-term nature.

F-6

 

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures (continued)

 

Fixed Assets

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:

 

Equipment 3-5 years

Furniture 7 years

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Based on this assessment there were no impairments needed as of February 29, 2012 or 2011. Depreciation expense for the year ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, was $71 and $0, respectively.

 

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC subtopic 605-10 (formerly SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 and 13A, “Revenue Recognition”) net of expected cancellations and allowances. As of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, the Company evaluated evidence of cancellation in order to make a reliable estimate and determined there were no material cancellations during the years and therefore no allowances has been made.

 

The Company's revenues, which do not require any significant production, modification or customization for the Company's targeted customers and do not have multiple elements, are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred; (iii) the Company's fee is fixed and determinable; and (iv) collectability is probable.

 

Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from the sales of LCD and LED televisions. The Company's customers are charged for these products on a per transaction basis. Pricing varies depending on the product sold.  Revenue is recognized in the period in which the products are sold net of any discounts or allowances.

 

Loss per share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the effect of the assumed exercise or conversion of stock options, warrants, and debt to purchase common shares, would have an anti-dilutive effect. At February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011 the Company had no potential common shares that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share.

F-7

 

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures (continued)

 

Income taxes

The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10 for recording the provision for income taxes. ASC 740-10 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

 

Long-lived assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic 360-10-05, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost or carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and its fair value or disposable value. For the years ended February 29, 2012, and February 28, 2011, the Company determined that none of its long-term assets were impaired.

 

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affects 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.

 

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Pursuant to its vendor agreement with Fry’s electronics, the Company contributes 5% of each sale to a co-operative advertising, promotional and marketing campaign. The Company’s advertising expenses were $248,052 for the year ended February 29, 2012, and $0 for the year ended February 28, 2011.

 

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. During the year ended February 29, 2012, and February 28, 2011, the Company did not incur any research and development costs.

 

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based payments to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Stock-based payments to employees include grants of stock, grants of stock options and issuance of warrants that are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant.

 

Year-end

The Company has adopted February 28, as its fiscal year end.

F-8

 

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures (continued)

 

Share-Based Compensation (continued)

The Company accounts for stock-based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 718 and Topic 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Stock-based payments to non-employees include grants of stock, grants of stock options and issuances of warrants that are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on the value of the vested portion of the award over the requisite service period as measured at its then-current fair value as of each financial reporting date. The Company calculates the fair value of option grants and warrant issuances utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time stock options are granted and warrants are issued to employees and non-employees, and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeitures” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations” and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered stock option or warrant. The Company estimates forfeiture rates for all unvested awards when calculating the expense for the period. In estimating the forfeiture rate, the Company monitors both stock option and warrant exercises as well as employee termination patterns.

 

The resulting stock-based compensation expense for both employee and non-employee awards is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award.

 

For the year ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, the Company has not incurred share-based compensation expense.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”. The amendments result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), and do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. In this update, FASB eliminated the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within these years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

 

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

International Financial Reporting Standards:

 

In November 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued for comment a proposed roadmap regarding potential use of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Under the proposed roadmap, the Company would be required to prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS in fiscal year 2014, including comparative information also prepared under IFRS for fiscal 2013 and 2012. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of IFRS on its financial statements and will continue to follow the proposed roadmap for future developments.

F-9

 

NOTE 3 - Going concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet achieved profitable operations and since its inception (February 23, 2010) through February 29, 2012 the Company had accumulated losses of $1,523,172 and a working capital deficit of $1,512,078. Management expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

 

The Company expects to continue to incur substantial losses as it executes its business plan and does not expect to attain profitability in the near future. Since its inception, the Company has funded operations through short-term borrowings and equity investments in order to meet its strategic objectives. The Company's future operations are dependent upon external funding and its ability to execute its business plan, realize sales and control expenses. Management believes that sufficient funding will be available from additional borrowings and private placements to meet its business objectives, including anticipated cash needs for working capital, for a reasonable period of time. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient funds to continue the development of its business operation, or if obtained, upon terms favorable to the Company.

 

NOTE 4- Accounts receivable

 

During the year ended February 29, 2012, the Company entered into two agreements to sell the Company’s accounts receivable in accordance with factoring agreements.

 

On December 21, 2011, the Company entered into a Sale and Assignment Agreement with Associated Receivables Funding, Inc. (“A/R Funding”) to purchase certain of its outstanding trade accounts receivable for a period of one year. Pursuant to this agreement, A/R Funding agreed to purchase up to a maximum of $4,000,000 of the Company’s trade receivables with a minimum quarterly factoring of an amount of not less than $300,000. Additionally, the terms of the agreement require a monthly factoring fee equal to 1.5% per month calculated based on the unpaid balance of purchased invoices outstanding. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, A/R Funding has agreed to advance a minimum of 40% of the face value of trade receivables purchased and a maximum of 60% to be held in reserve as protection against possible returns and allowances. All amounts held in reserve are required to be paid to the Company within two days of receiving payment on the sold receivable, less any mutually agreed deductions. In December 2011, the Company cancelled its agreement with A/R Funding. During the period of effectiveness, A/R Funding purchased trade receivables with a face value of $2,092,248. The Company received all proceeds net of discounts and allowances upon termination of the agreement. In addition, the Company paid a cancellation fee of $4,500 and factoring fees totaling $16,382.

 

On January 11, 2012, the Company entered into an Accounts Receivable Purchase & Security Agreement with Pacific Business Capital Corporation (“PBCC”), subsequently approved by the board of directors on February 27, 2012. Pursuant to the agreement, PBCC has the option to purchase various trade receivables presented by the Company at a minimum discount of 0.813% of the face value of each account purchased. PBCC has the option to reserve and withhold a minimum of 20% of the gross face amount of all accounts purchased. The reserve account may be held by PBCC and applied against charge-backs or any obligations of the Company to PBCC. In addition, in the event a purchased account remains unpaid more than 15 days from the date of purchase, an additional service discount of 0.54 % per day will be charged to the Company until paid-in full. The agreement with PBCC is secured by all of the Company’s assets, and has been personally guaranteed by the Company’s executive officers.

F-10

 

NOTE 4- Accounts receivable (continued)

 

During the year ended February 29, 2012, the Company has sold trade receivables with a face value of $851,829 at a discount of $6,925 to PBCC for proceeds of $596,280, net of reserves. As of February 29, 2012, the Company has record a loss on the sale of assets totaling $6,925 and factoring fees of $9,361. The balance held in reserves with PBCC at February 29, 2012 totaled $247,835.

 

On November 18, 2011, the Company agreed to a payment holdback in the amount of $10,000 as a provision to its agreement with Costco. The holdback is to be utilized to cover any future costs attributable to potential returns and or allowances. Per the verbal agreement, Costco calculates the retained amount at their discretion at a rate equal to approximately 5% of each total order and can be held for a period up to six-months. Any amount remaining after the six-month period has expired is fully payable to the Company. On March 29, 2012, Costco returned the initial $10,000 and withheld a new $50,000 retainer for products purchased in April 2012.

 

Accounts receivable consist of the following:

 

  February 29,  February 28,
  2012  2011
Trade accounts receivable $789,188   $—   
Due from factoring  247,835    —   
Customer hold-back  10,000    —   
 Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts  —      —   
  $1,047,023   $—   

 

As of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively, the Company had not established an allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

NOTE 5 - Property and equipment

The following is a summary of property and equipment:

 

  February 29,  February 28,
  2012  2011
Furniture and fixtures $1,200   $—   
Less: accumulated depreciation  (71)    —   
  $1,129   $—   

 

Depreciation for the year ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011 was $71 and $0, respectively.

 

NOTE 6 - Related party transactions

 

Employment/Consulting commitments

One June 1, 2011, the Company agreed to pay its two executive officers annual salaries of $240,000 each with 50% to be paid in cash and the remaining $120,000 to accrue until such time the Company has sufficient operating capital to pay the accrued compensation. As of February 29, 2012, the Company has paid executive compensation of $233,500 and accrued $246,500.

 

Agreements

On June 1, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Assets and Assumption of Obligations with the previous sole officer and director. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company transferred all assets related to the business of designing and marketing custom beer pong tables to the former officer in exchange for the assumption of all liabilities relating to the former business. In addition, the previous officer agreed to return to treasury and cancel 6,444,444 (25,777,776 – post-split) shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

NIVIS USA Corp. 

NIVS USA Corp. provided the Company with product inventory through June of 2011 and is affiliated with its director and former COO, Edward Wang. As of February 29, 2012, the financial statements reflect an account payable to NIVS USA Corp. of $243,621.20. The proper amount due and owing to NIVS USA Corp., if any, is a matter of ongoing investigation. The Company believes that one or more of the applicable invoices may be inaccurate and that the amount actually due is less than the sum reflected in its accounts. The Company’s investigation of this matter is ongoing.

NOTE 7 – Commitments

 

Lease agreements

In April 2011, the Company entered into a month to month sub-lease agreement for office and warehouse space commencing April 1, 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the monthly lease amount is $7,000. In August 2011, the Company amended there agreement to acquire additional square footage for conference and office space for an additional $1,000 per month. In addition, from time to time the Company utilizes various storage facilities as needed. As of February 29, 2012, the Company has recorded rent expense of $74,202.

 

NOTE 8- Income taxes

 

As of February 29, 2012, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of $1,523,172 that may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income through 2031. 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 deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.

 

The significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

 

  February 29,  February 28,
  2012  2011
Federal income tax attributable to:         
Current operations $500,304   $16,308 
Less valuation allowance  (500,304)   (16,308)
Net provision for Federal income taxes $—     $—   

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising the net deferred tax amount is as follows:

 

  February 29,  February 28,
  2012  2011
Deferred tax asset attributable to:         
Net operating loss carryover $517,878   $17,498 
Less valuation allowance  (517,878)   (17,498)
Net deferred tax asset $—     $—   

The net change in the valuation for 2012 was $500,380

 

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of $51,466 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years

 

Our policy regarding income tax interest and penalties is to expense those items as general and administrative expense but to identify them for tax purposes. During the periods ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, there were no income tax, or related interest and penalty items in the income statement, or as a liability on the balance sheet. We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. We are subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examination by tax authorities for years beginning at our inception of February 23, 2010 through current. We are not currently involved in any income tax examinations.

NOTE 9 - Fair value measurement

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820-10 at the beginning of 2009 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets required to be measured on a recurring basis. The adoption of ASC Topic 820-10 did not impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:

 

Level I – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.

 

Level II – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level III – Valuations based on inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of February 29, 2012:

 

   Level I    Level II    Level III    Fair Value 
February 29, 2012                   
Cash $493,759   $—     $—     $493,759

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

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

 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of February 29, 2012. Based on his evaluation, he concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures were due to a lack of segregation of duties.

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our board of directors and management; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this evaluation under the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of February 29, 2012. Management determined that the material weaknesses that resulted in controls being ineffective are primarily due to lack of resources and number of employees. Material weaknesses exist in the segregation of duties required for effective controls and various reconciliation and control procedures not regularly performed due to the lack of staff and resources.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

 

During the most recently completed fiscal year, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

 

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance

 

The following table sets forth information regarding the members of our board of directors and our executive officers and other significant employees as of February 29, 2012. All of our directors hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and their successors are duly elected and qualify. Executive officers serve at the request of the board of directors.

 

Name Age Office(s) held
Edward Meadows 65 President, CEO, CFO,  Treasurer, Secretary Director
Edward Wang 65 Director

 

Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of each of our executive officers and directors as of February 29, 2012.

 

Edward Meadows, our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, and Director, has over 20 years experience in the consumer retail industry. Mr. Meadows joined us in April, 2011. Previously, for the past five years, Mr. Meadows has provided financial consulting and sales management expertise to multiple companies including Westinghouse Digital and various other large entities in his own consulting practice. He was formerly the interim CFO of the television manufacturer Westinghouse Digital, LLC, from February 2007 to September 2007, and prior to this period he also worked as an auditor with PricewaterhouseCoopers. In addition to his financial experience, Mr. Meadows has over 20 years extensive experience selling to the national accounts of Wal-Mart, Costco, Fry's Electronics, Best Buy, Office Depot, Staples, Target, Tiger Direct, Sam's Club, and Radio Shack which are current and or long term goals for SIGMAC USA. Mr. Meadows graduated from Ohio State University in 1969 with a major in accounting and a minor in marketing.

 

Edward Wang, a Director, joined us in April, 2011. He served as our Chief Operating Officer from April 2011 through June 11, 2012. In 1982 Mr. Wang started Edward Electronics Co., to provide consumer electronics warranty and repair service, quality assurance, and engineering failure analysis. His major customers included: Pioneer, Toshiba, Samsung, JVC, Philips, RCA, GE, Mitsubishi, and Sanyo / Fisher. In 1997, Mr. Wang started a monitor OEM warranty service to provide customer service, technical support and refurbishing of CRT and LCD monitors for Viewsonic, Dell and Envision Peripherals, Inc. and scanner assemblies for HP. Over the course of his career, Mr. Wang has worked in various capacities as an Electronics Engineer, Production Manager, Plant Manager, and General Manager for Transworld, RCA and other manufacturers in Taiwan. Mr. Wang holds an Electronics Engineering degree from National Taipei University of Technology in Taiwan.

 

There are no family relationships among any of our current or former directors or executive officers.

 

12

Directors

 

Our bylaws authorize no less than one (1) and no more than twelve (12) directors. We currently have two directors.  

 

All directors hold office for one-year terms until the election and qualification of their successors. Officers are elected by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board.

 

Committees of the Board

 

We do not currently have a compensation committee, executive committee, or stock plan committee.

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee. The entire Board of Directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the Board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The Board approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and interacts with the independent accountants to discuss issues related to financial reporting. In addition, the Board reviews the scope and results of the audit with the independent accountants, reviews with management and the independent accountants our annual operating results, considers the adequacy of our internal accounting procedures and considers other auditing and accounting matters including fees to be paid to the independent auditor and the performance of the independent auditor. Our Board of Directors, which performs the functions of an audit committee, does not have a member who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” within the definition of Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

 

Nomination Committee

 

Our Board of Directors does not maintain a nominating committee. As a result, no written charter governs the director nomination process. Our size and the size of our Board, at this time, do not require a separate nominating committee.

 

When evaluating director nominees, our directors consider the following factors:

 

•  The appropriate size of our Board of Directors;
•  Our needs with respect to the particular talents and experience of our directors;
•  The knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in finance, administration or public service, in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board;
•  Experience in political affairs;
•  Experience with accounting rules and practices; and
•  The desire to balance the benefit of continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new Board members.

 

13

Our goal is to assemble a Board that brings together a variety of perspectives and skills derived from high quality business and professional experience. In doing so, the Board will also consider candidates with appropriate non-business backgrounds.

 

Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, although the Board may also consider such other factors as it may deem are in our best interests as well as our stockholders. In addition, the Board identifies nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service are considered for re-nomination. If any member of the Board does not wish to continue in service or if the Board decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Board then identifies the desired skills and experience of a new nominee in light of the criteria above. Current members of the Board are polled for suggestions as to individuals meeting the criteria described above. The Board may also engage in research to identify qualified individuals. To date, we have not engaged third parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying potential nominees, although we reserve the right in the future to retain a third party search firm, if necessary. The Board does not typically consider shareholder nominees because it believes that its current nomination process is sufficient to identify directors who serve our best interests.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

 

Code of Ethics

 

As of February 29, 2012, we had not adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

 

At this time, we do not have any written employment agreements with our named executive officers. On June 1, 2011, the Company agreed to pay our President and CEO, Edward Meadows, and our former COO, Edward Wang, annual salaries of $240,000 each with 50% to be paid in cash and the remaining $120,000 to accrue until such time as we have sufficient operating capital to pay the accrued compensation. The goal of this arrangement was to provide such compensation as is feasible in our current state of development to those executive officers providing ongoing management of our operations.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

To date, we have not adopted a stock option plan or other equity compensation plan and have not issued any stock, options, or other securities as compensation.

 

Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

 

In accordance with the provisions in our articles of incorporation, we will indemnify an officer, director, or former officer or director, to the full extent permitted by law.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Except as set forth below,none of our directors or executive officers, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director, nor any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to all of our outstanding shares, nor any members of the immediate family (including spouse, parents, children, siblings, and in-laws) of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since our incorporation or in any presently proposed transaction which, in either case, has or will materially affect us:

 

1. On February 25, 2010, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with our founder and sole officer and director, Tyler Richard.  Under the agreement, we issued Mr. Richard 1,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for certain equipment consisting of a hand hopper, and hawk, and trowels, supplies in the form of styrofoam, and inventory valued at $1,000.

 

2. During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, we operated out of approximately 10,000 square feet of office and warehouse space which we subleased from an entity controlled by our COO and director, Edward Wang, on a month-to-month basis on Valley Boulevard in City of Industry, California, at a rate of $7,000 per month.

 

3. NIVS USA Corp. provided us with product inventory through June of 2011 and is affiliated with our director and former COO, Edward Wang. As of February 29, 2012, our financial statements reflect an account payable to NIVS USA Corp. of $236,994. The proper amount due and owing to NIVS USA Corp., if any, is a matter of ongoing dispute.  We believe that one or more of its invoices may be inaccurate and that the amount actually due is less than the sum reflected in our accounts. 

 

Director Independence

 

We are not a “listed issuer” within the meaning of Item 407 of Regulation S-K and there are no applicable listing standards for determining the independence of our directors. Applying the definition of independence set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., we do not have any independent directors.

 

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services

 

Below is the table of Audit Fees (amounts in US$) billed by our auditor in connection with the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the years ended:

 

Financial Statements for the Year Ended Audit Services Audit Related Fees Tax Fees Other Fees
