ALL AMERICAN PET COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.  ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Nature of Operations

 

All American Pet Company, Inc. (“AAPT”) is a developer and marketer of innovative pet wellness products including super premium dog foods and antibacterial wipes. In 2010 and 2011, AAPT produced, marketed, and sold two super-premium dog foods under the brand names Grrr-nola®Natural Dog Food and Chompions®. Both Grrr-nola®Natural Dog Food and Chompions® were the first dog food products that were formulated for canine heart health and endorsed by a veterinary cardiac surgeon. The Company has launched its line of Pawtizer™ pet wipes and spray, the pet care industry’s first alcohol-free anti-bacterial dog cleaner. The Company has also announced and is preparing to market its Mutt™ Great Food for Great Dogs super premium dry kibble dog food, and its Nutra Bars™ line of portable, convenient and functional, super premium 4 ounce dog food bars. Each 4 ounce bar has a kcal equivalent of 8 ounces of super premium dry dog food.

 

All American Pet Company, Inc. was initially organized under the laws of the State of New York (“All American Pet Company, Inc. NY”) in February 2003. In January 2006, All American Pet Company, Inc. NY merged into All American Pet Company, Inc. a Maryland corporation (“All American Pet Company, Inc. MD”). In June 2012, All American Pet Company Inc. merged into a Nevada Corporation, (“All American Pet Company, Inc. NV”). The Company has formed a number of wholly owned subsidiaries to provide for accountability of each of its operations. All American PetCo, Inc. was formed in January 2008 to provide corporate infrastructure and management services. All American Pet Brands, Inc. was formed in April 2009 to be the Company’s manufacturing and warehousing operation. In September 2009 the Company signed a license and distribution agreement with AAP Sales and Distribution Inc. a third party company that obtained the rights to manufacture and sell certain of the Company’s products on a non-exclusive basis. AAP Sales and Distribution Inc.’s operations have been consolidated with All American Pet Company, Inc. based on accounting guidelines for Variable Interest Entities.

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in these financial statements to the “Company” or “AAPT” refer to All American Pet Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its subsidiaries, and its predecessors, All-American Pet Company Inc., MD, a Maryland Corporation and All-American Pet Company Inc., NY, a New York corporation. All financial statements give effect to this reincorporation as if it occurred at the beginning of the period.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial positions, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a limited operating history and limited funds. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,106,430, used $300,621 cash in operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, had a working capital deficit of $4,817,094 and total stockholders’ deficit of $5,063,585 as of September 30, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company is dependent upon outside financing to continue operations. Management plans to raise funds via a private placement of its common stock to satisfy the capital requirements of the Company’s business plan.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary funds through continuing equity and debt financing to have sufficient operating capital to execute the Company's business plan. If the Company is able to obtain necessary funds, there is no assurance that the Company will successfully implement its business plan or raise sufficient capital to complete the execution of its business plan. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional funds through a private placement of its equity or debt securities or other borrowings sufficient to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

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 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include estimates for bad debts, excess and obsolete inventory, coupon liabilities and other trade spending liabilities.

 

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities at the date of purchase of 90 days or less.

 

7
 

 

Revenue Recognition, Sales Incentives and Slotting Fees

Revenues are recognized upon passage of title to the customer, typically upon product pick-up, shipment or delivery to customers.  The Company’s revenue arrangements with its customers often include sales incentives and other promotional costs such as coupons, volume-based discounts, slotting fees and off-invoice discounts.  These costs are typically referred to collectively as “trade spending”. Pursuant to ASC Topic 605, these costs are recorded when revenue is recognized and are generally classified as a reduction of revenue. Slotting fees refer to arrangements pursuant to which the retail grocer allows our products to be placed on the store’s shelves in exchange for a slotting fee. Given that there are no written contractual commitments requiring the retail grocers to allocate shelf space for twelve months, we expense the slotting fee at the time orders are first shipped to customers.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for the period and diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common stock and dilutive common equivalent stock outstanding.  The weighted average number of common stock outstanding was 230,631,656 and 104,517,606 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Net loss per share and diluted net loss per share are the same for all periods presented.

 

2. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

 

Following is a description of our financial interests in a variable interest entity that we consider significant, those for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of the entity and, therefore, have consolidated the entity into our financial statements.

 

On August 12, 2009, we entered into a License Agreement with AAP Sales and Distribution, Inc. (“AAPSD”). Under the terms of the agreement, AAPSD has the non-exclusive right to manufacture and market certain products of the Company. The duration of the agreement is for a period of five years.  AAPSD is the primary beneficiary of the Company because of the relatively significant financial support provided to AAPSD in the form of the production and distribution and deferred payment arrangements between AAPSD the Company.

 

AAPSD owes the Company payments for product purchased and for royalties at the stated rate of 18.5% of net revenues, which are due and payable within five business days of receipt of funds by AAPSD from any sale when good funds are received from the sale.  The 18.5% license payments will be applied to all minimum guarantee payments. The minimum guaranteed royalties, as amended, are due based within the 12-month period following the time at which AAPC has delivered 3,000,000 pounds of finished product.  AAPSD does not owe the Company any royalties until AAPSD has recouped any costs of marketing or placement fees. All Royalty payments due from sales are accumulated and are applied toward to the minimum royalty payment for the year.  If the 18.5% royalties are less than the minimum then AAPSD is obligated pay us the difference between what was paid during the 12 month period and the required minimum.  Minimum royalty payments are due in the normal course of business as AAPSD has ten days at the end of each quarter to report any sales and royalties due and AAPC has the right to review the reports and agree on what amounts are owed based on sales and a statement of any minimum guarantees that may be due and payable.  All payments are to be made in the normal course of business as agreed at the time of the annual royalty report’s acceptance by AAPC.

 

8
 

 

We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of AAPSD as our interest in the entity is subject to variability based on results from operations and changes in the fair value. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, all operations of AAPSD are included in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, for the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, sales of $59,726 to AAPSD are offset by $141,879 in slotting fees, resulting in negative net sales of $82,153 as a result of the consolidation.

 

The results of operations for AAPSD have been included in the financial statements of the Company. The unaudited financial position of AAPSD at September 30, 2011 is as follows:

 

Total Assets  $- 
Total Liabilities   (348,361)
Total Stockholders’ Deficit   348,361

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company vacated the warehouse and manufacturing facility in Nebraska City, Nebraska. Upon vacation of the facility, the Company transferred its on hand product inventory to a third party for disposal. The transaction resulted in an impairment charge of $98,164 in both the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2011.

 

4. MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Machinery and equipment consists of the following:

 

   September 30, 2011   December 31, 2010

   $2,789   $125,977 

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company cancelled a capital lease of a bar forming machine and returned the equipment to the lessor. The transaction resulted in a write-down of warehouse equipment from $122,450 to $0, and recognized a loss on abandonment of machinery and equipment of $7,812 in the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2011.

Depreciation expense for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was $739 and $738, respectively. Depreciation expense for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was $246 and $246, respectively.

 

5. PAYROLL TAXES

On February 27, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with the two preferred stockholders to convert all 56,500 shares of Series “A” Preferred shares held by them in exchange for 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The delivery of the common stock to the preferred stockholders took place in March 2009 and the Company was released by the stockholders (the Releases) from any and all future claims and liabilities. The preferred stockholders have the right to sell the common stock at a rate of 1,250,000 in the aggregate every 90 days starting May 15, 2009 and the right to sell at will after March 31, 2010. The Company has agreed that the total value of the shares sold over the Liquidation Period, which is defined as the period from May 15, 2009 to April 30, 2010, to be at a minimum of $800,000 or market value of 5,000,000 shares at $0.16 per share.

If the gross proceeds from all sales is still less than $800,000 then the Company shall have the right and not the obligation to make up the difference by making a cash payment on or before May 31, 2010.  In addition, no later than June 15, 2010, the Company is obligated to issue an additional 3,000,000 shares of the common stock in total to these stockholders if the sales proceeds and any additional payments made by the Company is less than $800,000. This agreement was extended on May 25, 2010 to August 31, 2010 with an agreement to issue an additional 1,000,000 shares as compensation for the extension and 3,000,000 were issued on May 26, 2010 based on the terms of the original agreement that called for the shares to be issued if the value was not paid on or before June 15, 2010.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded $1,000,000 as share guarantee expense to account for the obligation described above.  The June 1, 2010 amendment to the March 7, 2009 agreement was amended to extend the liquidation period to achieve the $800,000 guaranteed liquidation amount to March 31, 2011.  The Company issued an additional 2,000,000 shares of Common stock as the fee for this extension at $0.06 per share for a total of $120,000.

History of the Company and its Current Status

 

All American Pet Company, Inc., was initially organized under the laws of the State of New York (“All American Pet Company, Inc. NY”) in February 2003. In January 2006, All American Pet merged into All American Pet Company, Inc. a Maryland corporation (“All American Pet Company, Inc. MD”).

The Company has never operated at a profit and is dependent upon additional financing to remain a going concern. The Company has obtained substantial new equity capital and continues to seek new equity capital to sustain operations. The Company remains under significant financial strain primarily because of its low level of sales and limited operating funds. The limited amount of operating capital may preclude the Company’s ability to execute its manufacturing, marketing, and distribution objectives or to continue operations. No assurance can be given that the Company will secure adequate funds to sustain operations or that it will continue as a going concern.

 

Our executive offices are located at 1880 Century Park East, Suite 1402, Los Angeles, California 90067 and our telephone number at that location is (310) 432-9032.  Our websites are www.allamericanpetcompany.com and www.Pawtizer.Com. The information on our websites are not, and shall not be deemed to be, a part of this report or incorporated by reference into this or any other filing we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our liquidity requirements arise principally from our working capital needs, including the cost of goods and marketing costs. In the future we intend to fund our liquidity requirements through a combination of cash flows from operations and external financings.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,106,430 on negative revenues of $82,153 as slotting fees exceeded gross sales. Our ability to initiate our plan of operations and continue as a going concern is currently dependent on our ability to introduce products into the marketplace that gain consumer acceptance, build our customer base, and achieve profitable operations. Until these objectives are realized, the Company will be dependent upon external financings to sustain operations. Due to our stock being thinly traded and the current state of our balance sheet, including a lack of hard assets against which to borrow, we believe that it will be very difficult to obtain any form of debt financing with or without equity conversion terms. We are concerned about the ability to raise any capital in the future at terms that would be in the shareholders' best interest or at all.

 

In the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the Company raised $220,015 before offering costs. We are currently seeking additional sources of funding.

 

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 compared with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010

 

The following discussion of the results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 included in this Quarterly Report as well as the statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

 

15
 

 

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, gross sales increased by $59,726 as both Grrr-nola®Natural Dog Food and Chompions® had not been introduced into the marketplace in the nine months ending September 30, 2010. Net sales declined from $0 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to ($82,153) in the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as slotting fees increased from $0 in the nine months ending September 30, 2010 to $141,879 in the nine months ending September 30, 2011. Cost of goods sold increased from ($830) to $59,340 in the nine months ending September 30, 2011 as products were not shipped in the nine months ending September 30, 2010.

 

For the nine months ending September 30, 2011, sales and marketing expenses decreased by $517,408 from $889,129 in the nine months ending September 30, 2010 to $371,721 in the nine months ending September 30, 2011. The decrease is attributable to an increase of $215,046 of consulting and research, a decrease of $449,594 in advertising and promotion, a decrease of $21,252 in product and package development, a decrease of $292,500 in local marketing and a net increase of $30,892 in other sales and marketing activity. General and Administrative expenses were decreased by $1,908,449 from $3,231,200 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $1,322,751 in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This amount consisted of a decrease of $1,131,266 in consulting expenses, a decrease of $66,271 in patent and trademark services, a decrease of $501,235 in legal, accounting and professional fees, an a decrease of $25,635 in bonuses, a decrease in officer salaries of $99,304, a decrease in insurance expense of $23,158, and a net decrease of $61,580 in other general and administrative expenses.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company vacated its warehouse and manufacturing facility in Nebraska City, Nebraska. Upon vacation of the facility, the Company transferred its on hand product inventory to a third party for disposal. The transaction resulted in an impairment charge of $98,164 in the nine month period ending September 30, 2011. The Company also cancelled a capital lease of a bar forming machine that was utilized in the Nebraska City facility and returned the equipment to the lessor. The transaction resulted in a write-down of warehouse equipment from $122,450 to $0, and a loss on abandonment of machinery and equipment of $7,812 in the nine month period ending September 30, 2011.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 compared with the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010

 

The following discussion of the results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto for three month period ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 included in this Quarterly Report as well as the statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

 

16
 

 

For the three months ending September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, gross sales were $0 as no products were sold into the marketplace. For the three months ending September 30, 2011, sales and marketing expenses decreased by $443,556, from $473,313 in the three months ending September 30, 2010 to $29,757 in the three months ending September 30, 2011. The decrease is attributable to an increase of $77,500 in consulting and research, a decrease of $250,050 in advertising and promotion, a decrease of $292,500 in local marketing programs and a net increase of $21,494 in other sales and marketing activity. General and administrative expenses were decreased by $630,625 from $870,980 in the three months ended September 30, 2010 to $240,355 in the three months ended September 30, 2011. This amount consisted of a decrease of $314,436 in consulting expenses, a decrease of $81,380 in legal and accounting, a decrease of $22,325 in patent and trademark services, an decrease of $115,264 in officer salaries, a decrease of $10,897 in insurance, a decrease in facilities expense of $12,238, a decrease in payroll and payroll taxes of $42,312, and a net decrease of $31,773 in other general and administrative expenses.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company vacated its warehouse and manufacturing facility in Nebraska City, Nebraska. Upon vacation of the facility, the Company transferred its on hand inventory to a third party for disposal. The transaction resulted in an impairment charge of $98,164 in the three month period ending September 30, 2011. The Company also cancelled a capital lease of a bar forming machine that was utilized in the Nebraska City facility and returned the equipment to the lessor. The transaction resulted in a write-down of warehouse equipment from $122,450 to $0, and a loss on abandonment of machinery and equipment of $7,812 in the three month period ending September 30, 2011.

 

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

 

Because of our lack of funding and limited ability to adequately market our products, the Company has experienced slotting fees in excess of gross sales, and incurred high costs in manufacturing and marketing our products. As a result, we have experienced large operating losses and negative cash flow. At September 30, 2011 and 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $4,817,094  and $1,283,470, respectively, and a stockholders' deficit of $5,063,585 and $1,324,181, respectively. We have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and debt. Additional capital infusions will be needed to manufacture, distribute and promote our products, sustain operations and make payments and settlements of existing debts and obligations. We believe that our future profitability will depend on the commercial and consumer acceptance of our products, effective marketing strategies, efficient production and proper execution of our business plan. Additionally, success with our external financing strategies will be needed to effectuate our business objectives. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects for success and our revenue and profitability potential, particularly for newly introduced products, is unproven. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our external financing strategies will yield any capital or the amount of capital necessary to execute our business plan.

 

The Company incurred a net loss of $2,106,430 and cash used from operations of $300,621 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In their report in connection with our 2010 financial statements, our independent registered public accountants included an explanatory paragraph stating that, because we incurred a net loss of $7,439,775 and a negative cash flow from operations of $2,116,774 for the year ended December 31, 2010, and had a working capital deficiency of $3,154,575 and a stockholders deficiency of $3,365,717 at December 31, 2010, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

17
 

 

Our principal sources of liquidity have been sales of equity securities and borrowings. To meet our current requirements to operate, the Company has sold common stock and is currently attempting to undertake the sale of additional equity securities. As new funds are obtained, our principal uses of capital would be to meet our operating requirements, production, marketing and advertising expenditures, and make investments in inventory. Additional cash could be used to reduce past due taxes and other debts and payables. Until cash generated from operations is sufficient to satisfy our future liquidity requirements, we will be investigating purchase order and accounts receivable funding from different sources, as well as other sources of capital. We will also be looking to seek equity capital through the issuance of additional common stock with other round(s) of funding. There are currently no commitments or other known sources for this funding. If these funds are obtained, it would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Financing may not be available in the future in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. As of September 30, 2011, there are no commitments or other known sources for this funding.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

 

As a smaller reporting company, All American Pet Company, Inc. is not required to provide the information required by this item

 

Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer has concluded that as of September 30, 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure; due to the material weaknesses described below.

  

In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented.

  1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

 

  2. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

 

  3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the period covered by this report based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on the results of management’s assessment and evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the material weaknesses described below.

 

Material Weaknesses

 

  1. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2011. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the framework set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework.” Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of September 30, 2011, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were not effective based on this framework.

 

Management evaluated the impact of ineffective control over financial reporting and concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness.

  2. In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, our independent registered accounting firm, De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC, reported to the Company’s Board of Directors that they observed inadequate review and approval of certain aspects of the accounting process that they considered to be a material weakness in internal control.

  

After a review of the Company’s current review and approval of certain aspects of the accounting process, management concluded that the inadequate review and approval process represented a material weakness.

   

Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report by the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, because Management’s report in the annual report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

 

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have not been any material changes in the Company’s internal control during the three months ended September 30, 2011 over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of September 30, 2011, the Company carried out an assessment under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(1) and I 5d-15(1)). Our Chief Executive and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2011.

 

Material Weaknesses and Related Remediation Initiatives

 

Set forth below is a summary of the various significant deficiencies which caused management to conclude that we had the material weaknesses identified above. Through the efforts of management, we have developed a specific action plan to remediate the material weaknesses.  We expect to implement these various action plans during 2012 and anticipate that all control deficiencies and material weaknesses will be remediated by December 31, 2012.

 

We did not effectively implement comprehensive entity-level internal controls and did not maintain a sufficient level of resources within our accounting department, as discussed below: 

 

·Financial Close Process.  The Company only prepares financial statements on a quarterly basis which increases the potential that any unusual activities or transactions will not be detected on a timely basis.

 

·Cash Disbursement Process.   Payments to related parties and costs incurred by the Company were not subject to review and approval by independent parties which increased the potential that any improper distributions would not be detected on a timely basis.

 

·Reporting Deficiencies.  We did not perform timely and sufficient internal or external reporting of our progress and evaluation of prior year material weaknesses or the current fiscal year internal control deficiencies. 

 

Remediation of Internal Control Deficiencies and Expenditures

 

It is reasonably possible that, if not remediated, one or more of the material weaknesses described above could result in a material misstatement in our reported financial statements that might result in a material misstatement in a future annual or interim period. We are developing specific action plans for each of the above material weaknesses. We are uncertain at this time of the costs to remediate all of the above listed material weaknesses, however, we do not believe these costs will be significant and we expect to ratably incur the remediation costs during the year. We cannot guarantee that the actual costs to remediate these deficiencies will not exceed this amount.

 

We believe that we are addressing the deficiencies that affected our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012. Because the remedial actions may require hiring of additional personnel, and relying extensively on manual review and approval, the successful operation of these controls for at least several quarters may be required before management may be able to conclude that the material weaknesses have been remediated. We intend to continue to evaluate and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting systems. These efforts require significant time and resources. If we are unable to establish adequate internal control over financial reporting systems, we may encounter difficulties in the audit or review of our financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP and to comply with our SEC reporting obligations.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no material change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
