Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2013

UNAUDITED

 

1. Organization of the Company and Significant Accounting Principles

 

USCorp (the “Company”) is a publicly held corporation formed in May 1989 in the state of Nevada. In April 2002 the Company acquired USMetals, Inc. (“USMetals”), a Nevada corporation, and its 141 unpatented mining claims known as the Twin Peaks Project in Yavapai County Arizona. The Twin Peaks Project now consists of 268 unpatented Lode and 8 Placer Claims. In addition, The Company, through its subsidiary Southwest Resource Development, Inc., owns 200 unpatented Lode and Placer Claims on five properties in the Mesquite Mining District of Imperial County, California, which the Company collectively refers to as the Picacho Salton Project.

 

In April 2002, the Company acquired USMetals, Inc. (“USMetals”), a Nevada corporation, by issuing 24,200,000 shares of common stock. USMetals became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

On March 22, 2011, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary USMetals entered into an Asset Funding/Operation and Shareholders Agreement, and exhibits thereto with Arizona Gold Corp., a private British Columbia Corporation (“AGC”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, AGC Corp, a private Arizona company (“AGCAZ”), providing for the sale of 172 Arizona mining claims known as the Twin Peaks Project to AGCAZ in exchange for 90,200,000 shares or 61.34% of AGC’s common stock. The Twin Peaks Project now consists of 268 Lode and 8 Placer Claims.

 

In September 2012, we completed the unwinding of the Agreement with AGC. The key elements of the unwinding were: AGC Corp, a private Arizona corporation in whose name the Twin Peaks Project claims are held, became a wholly owned (100%) subsidiary of USMetals, Inc., which is a wholly owned (100%) subsidiary of USCorp; All of the Twin Peaks Project Claims are 100% under USMetals’ control and therefore under USCorp’s control; All remaining assets of AGC Corp have been transferred to USMetals, in exchange for shares of USCorp; All AGC Corp shareholders are now shareholders of USCorp; and Arizona Gold Corp, AGC Corp’s parent, will be dissolved in the future.

  

During the Quarter ending March 31, 2013, the Company determined it to be in the best interest of the shareholders to spin-off its two wholly owned subsidiaries, Southwest Resource Development Inc. and USMetals, Inc. through a distribution of shares to existing shareholders. All holders of USCorp shares as of the record date will be entitled to receive one common share of USMetals, Inc. and Southwest Resource Development, Inc. for every 10 shares (or shares convertible into Common shares) held in USCorp. The Company will no longer have significant influence over the operations of its subsidiaries and its ownership of the Subsidiaries after the spin-off will fall under 20%.

 

The Company has minimal revenues as a result of operations to date and has defined itself as an “exploration stage” company.

 

Exploration Stage Company- the Company has minimal operations or revenues since its inception and therefore qualifies for treatment as an Exploration Stage company as per the accounting guidance. Financial transactions are accounted for as per generally accepted accounted principles. Costs incurred during the development stage are accumulated in “accumulated deficit- exploration stage” and are reported in the Shareholders’ Deficit section of the balance sheet.

 

Consolidation- The unaudited consolidated financial statements incorporate the results, cash flows and net assets of USCorp and the entities controlled by it (its subsidiaries) after eliminating internal transactions and recognizing any non-controlling interests in those Entities. Control is achieved where the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee entity so as to obtain economic benefits from its activities. Where subsidiaries are acquired or disposed of in the year, their results and cash flows are included from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective disposal date.

 

Where a consolidated company is less than 100% owned by the Group, the non-controlling interest share of the results and net assets are recognized at each reporting date. The interests of non-controlling shareholders are ordinarily measured at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the fair value of the acquirer’s identifiable net assets, but may alternatively be initially measured at fair value. The choice of measurement is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

 

6


 
 

 

Changes in the Group’s interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amount of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to equity holders of the parent.

 

Use of Estimates- The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses at the date of the financial statements and for the period they include. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents- For the purpose of calculating changes in cash flows, cash includes all cash balances and highly liquid short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments-The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets for cash, deferred charges, accounts payable and accrued expenses and loans payable approximate the respective fair values due to the short maturities of these items. The Company does not hold any investments that are available-for-sale.

 

Long Lived Assets- The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount.

 

Property and EquipmentProperty and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation expense on equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is estimated at three years.

 

Income taxes- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the consolidated financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable income or deductible expenses in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets and liabilities to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period adjusted for the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

The Company follows the accounting requirements associated with uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 740, Income Taxes. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the positions will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. It also provides guidance for derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. All tax returns from tax years 2007 to 2011 are subject to IRS audit.

 

Mineral Property Expenditures- Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining,” when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met. In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.

 

7


 
 

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis. Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition- Mineral sales will result from undivided interests held by the Company in mineral properties. Sales of minerals will be recognized when delivered to be picked up by the purchaser. Mineral sales from marketing activities will result from sales by the Company of minerals produced by the Company (or affiliated entities) and will be recognized when delivered to purchasers. Mining revenues generated from the Company’s day rate contracts, included in mine services revenue, will be recognized as services are performed or delivered.

 

Earnings per share- The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.

 

2. Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which assume the continuity of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred significant losses since its inception and has minimal revenues and continues to rely on the issuance of shares and warrants to raise capital to fund its business operations.

 

Management’s plans with regard to this matter are as follows:

 

* Obtain the necessary approvals and permits to complete exploration and begin test production on our properties as warranted. An application for drilling on Picacho Salton Project has been submitted by us to the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) and is being reviewed by them. A drilling plan for the newly-expanded Twin Peaks Project was approved and commenced in November 2011 and was completed in the spring of 2012.

3. Gold Bullion Promissory Note

 

In September 2005, the Company issued a promissory note to a shareholder and received proceeds of $648,282. The note requires the Company to pay the shareholder 2,507 ounces of Gold Bullion (.999 pure) and accrued interest of 9% compounded annually. Originally, the promissory note came due in September 2007. Subsequently, the holder of the note extended the maturity date on an informal ongoing basis. The loan had been in default but the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2012 in exchange for 1,600,000 shares of common stock. The loan entered default again until the company negotiated with the lender to extend the maturity date of the loan until December 31, 2012 by the issuance of 2,550,000 share of stock along with the stipulation that cash payments totaling $78,774 be made per an outlined schedule. At this time the Company has not made the required payments and the loan is considered in default. The Company continues to accrue interest and to calculate the loan at fair value. Due to the fluctuation of price of Gold a gain or loss on the underlying gold derivative on the promissory note has been calculated based upon the difference between the fair market value of an ounce of Gold Bullion on the date the agreement is executed and the current fair market value of Gold Bullion (.999 pure).

 

During the quarter ending March 31, 2013, the Company and the Lender entered into discussion concerning the method used to calculate interest on the loan from inception in 2005. It was determined that the interest as calculated by the lender and reported by the company was inherently unfair. A mutual agreement was reached resulting in a reduction of interest due to the lender of 226 ounces of Gold Bullion. The reduction resulted in a total gain of $376,104. This gain was recognized as a reduction in interest expense of $178,422 and a gain on derivative of $197,682.

9. Restatement

 

We are restating in its entirety the financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012 as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2012. We have determined that our previously reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 contained significant errors which affected the consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows. These errors were caused by poor internal controls and an internal staff with limited accounting knowledge. Several stock issuances were not accounted for correctly in the previously reported statements in addition the loss attributable to the non-controlling interest of our subsidiary Arizona Gold Corp. (“AGC”) was not separated from losses attributable to the company. We have also made necessary conforming changes in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” resulting from the correction of these errors. The following table summarizes the impact of these corrections on our consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations, statement of cash flows and (loss) per share.

On April 23, 2013 USCorp received notification from FINRA that the required forms notifying FINRA and the Company’s shareholders of the Spin-offs and Record Date had not been filed. As a result management and the Company’s securities counsel are preparing the notification forms for submission to FINRA.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, and the other financial data appearing elsewhere in this Report.

 

The information set forth in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21 E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others (i) expected changes in the Company’s revenues and profitability, (ii) prospective business opportunities and (iii) the Company’s strategy for financing its business. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements of current condition. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by use of terms such as "believes", "anticipates", "intends" or "expects". These forward-looking statements relate to the plans, objectives and expectations of the Company for future operations. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this report should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.

 

The Company’s revenues and results of operations could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) changes in external competitive market factors, (ii) termination of certain operating agreements or inability to enter into additional operating agreements, (iii) inability to satisfy anticipated working capital or other cash requirements, (iv) changes in or developments under domestic or foreign laws, regulations, governmental requirements or in the mining industry, (v) changes in the Company’s business strategy or an inability to execute its strategy due to unanticipated changes in the market, (vi) various competitive factors that may prevent the Company from competing successfully in the marketplace, and (ix) the Company’s lack of liquidity and its ability to raise additional capital. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any future revisions it may make to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to reserves and intangible assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experiences and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily allowance for the cost of the Mineral Properties based on the successful efforts method of accounting. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.

At March 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $6,922,584 compared to a working capital deficit of $1,789,767 at September 30, 2012.

Total assets at March 31, 2013 were $6,350,500 as compared to $3,313,187 at September 30, 2012. The increase is mainly due to the reclassification of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries assets and liabilities as available for sale.

The decrease in stockholders’ deficit was mainly the result of an increase in additional paid in capital which increased as a result of selling Class A Common stock for cash and non-operating gains of $612,186 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to a decrease in interest expense and gain on derivative as a result of an agreement with the lender to adjust the interest accrued on the Gold Bullion Loan borrowed at the end of September 2005 and the change in the price of gold compared to the same period one year ago.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our acting Chief Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officer”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. The Certifying Officer has designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information is made known, particularly during the period in which this Report was prepared.

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive and financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost- benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of March 31, 2013, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting, except that the Company increased its internal controls around the issuance and recording of common stock sales.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives. The Company's chief executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.
