Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

 
 


NOTE 1.                      ORGANIZATION AND BACKGROUND

REO Plus, Inc. (“the Company”) was organized on August 11, 2009 for the purpose of investing in real estate.  The Company has had no operations other than its acquisition of 40% of Ananda Investments, LLC, (“Ananda.”)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of REO Plus, Inc. (the “Company”)
 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 contained in REO Plus’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the interim financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 as reported in the Company’s Form 10-K have been omitted.

NOTE 2.                      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $425,225 since its inception and has not yet produced earnings from operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.  Management anticipates that it will be able to raise additional working capital through the issuance of stock through a private equity offering.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to attain a satisfactory level of profitability and obtain suitable and adequate financing.  There can be no assurance that management’s plan will be successful.

NOTE 3.                      INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE

On January 2, 2010 the Company acquired a 40% interest in Ananda, a Texas limited liability company, which owns a commercial real estate rental property in Houston, Texas.  This acquisition was accomplished by the issuance of 934,500 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $27,500 and the issuance of a promissory note in the amount of $190,000. The investment was acquired from a controlling shareholder and recorded at the controlling shareholder’s cost basis with a resulting “deemed” dividend.

The transaction was treated as a transfer between entities under common control as follows:
 
Issuance of common stock
  $ 27,500  
Issuance of promissory note
    190,000

NOTE 4.                      NOTES PAYABLE, STOCKHOLDERS

At March 31, 2013, notes payable stockholders consist of the following:
     
       
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at
     
5% per annum; unsecured, principal and interest
     
due February 5, 2016
  $ 85,960  
         
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at

due April 30, 2016
    35,000  
         
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at
       
5% per annum; unsecured, principal and interest
       
due September 27, 2016
    40,000  
         
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at
       
5% per annum; unsecured, principal and interest
       
due December 27, 2016
    10,000  
         
Note payable to a corporation, bearing interest at
       
5% per annum; unsecured, principal and interest
       
due February 5, 2016
    20,000  
         
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at

due January 9, 2017
    10,000  
         
Note payable to an individual, bearing interest at
       
5% per annum; unsecured, principal and interest
       
due March 5, 2016
    40,000  
         
    $ 240,960  
 
On February 5, 2013, the stockholders agreed to extend the maturity dates of all notes payable, with an original maturity date through January 9, 2014, for three years from the original maturity date. The notes have been classified as short-term because the noteholder is the CEO and has significant control over the Company.

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of its investment in Ananda, the Company executed a note payable to a majority stockholder in the amount of $190,000 with interest accruing at 7% per annum commencing on the first day of the fourth month after Ananda obtained an occupancy permit for the property it owns in Houston, Texas. The permit was obtained on April 1, 2010, therefore the note of $190,000 began accruing interest on July 1, 2010.  On October 1, 2010, interest was due in the amount of $3,325, from July 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010.  Thereafter, $3,325 was due on January 1, 2011 and each subsequent third month until January 1, 2020 when a final balloon payment of $190,000 plus accrued interest is due and payable. The note has been classified as short-term because the noteholder is the CEO and has significant control over the Company.

Such stockholder owns a 95% interest in the Company through his 50% ownership of REO and 90% ownership of the other 50% corporate stockholder of REO.

The Company has no tax positions at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  Tax years open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service are 2009 through 2012.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of deferred loan costs.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events.  These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions.  Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings.  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

General

           REO Plus, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 10, 2009 under the laws of the State of Texas.  The address of the Company is 3014 McCulloch Circle, Houston, Texas 77056, and its telephone number is 713/599-1910.

The Company was formed by Akashic Ventures, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Akashic”), for purposes of acquiring financially attractive real estate properties.  Akashic is a publicly held corporation that once filed reports with the Commission.  Akashic has been dormant from a business perspective since about the summer of 1997.  Richard J. Church acquired control of Akashic in May 18, 2008.  He is now the sole director and officer of Akashic.  Mr. Church is the sole promoter of the Company, and he is serving and expects to continue to serve for the foreseeable future as the Company's sole director, and the Company’s President, Treasurer and Secretary.

When the Company was formed in August 2009, Akashic contributed $27,500 to the Company’s capital, and in consideration thereof the Company issued to Akashic 934,500 shares of Company common stock, thereby making Akashic the Company’s initial shareholder.Until early 2010, Mr. Church was a 40% owner of Ananda Investments, LLC (“Ananda”), a Texas limited liability company that owns a particular real estate property near and west of downtown Houston, Texas.  This 40% ownership is comprised of 400 units of limited liability company member interest.  In early 2010, Mr. Church transferred his 40% ownership in Ananda to the Company.  The Company issued to Mr. Church some of its shares of common stock as part of the purchase price for the Ananda interest.  As a result of the Ananda transfer, the Company became the largest owner of Ananda by a wide margin.   Because Ananda is member-managed, the Company exerts the greatest control over Ananda.

The Company became a publicly held corporation in November 2012 when Akashic distributed to certain of its shareholders a total of 930,493 shares of Company common stock held by it.
 
Plan of Operation

The Company generally expects to seek well-located properties in need of capital infusion, or total redevelopment, as properties requiring more extensive real estate skills and effort, allow for the greatest appreciation on invested capital.  The properties and assets to be acquired by the Company will most likely include commercial, retail, residential and mixed-use properties.  Such properties and assets will less likely include office properties, and will almost certainly not include industrial properties.  Thus far, the Company has acquired only an interest in one property.  For a description of this sole property interest, see the sections captioned “BUSINESS - Sole Property Interest” in pre-effective Amendment No. 8 the Company’s Registration Statement to Form S-1 on Form S-11 filed on September 17, 2012 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company will not limit itself geographically, except that the Company intends to target initially acquisitions located in the Houston, Texas area and eventually other parts of Texas.  However, as opportunities present themselves, the Company may focus its efforts on secondary and tertiary geographic markets throughout the United States, particularly in areas that have had significant declines in property values and thus possibly offer opportunities for significant appreciation.  The Company believes that distressed markets offer opportunities for the Company to acquire under-performing properties

 
19

 

that it believes it has the capability of turning around and repositioning, thereby increasing cash flow, profitability and asset value.  The Company believes it can successfully identify such a potential target acquisition based upon the depth and the breadth of the industry experience, contacts and industry knowledge of the Company’s current management.   While since its inception the Company has identified certain acquisitions that it would have like to have completed, the Company’s lack of funds has precluded the completion of such acquisitions.  The Company believes that its recently acquired public status will ease the Company’s ability to raise funds, and make the completion of acquisitions to be identified in the future more likely. However, the Company has no assurances of this.  Richard J. Church, the Company’s current sole executive officer and director, will have responsibility for identifying acquisitions or selecting acquisitions identified by other sources.  Mr. Church has extensive experience in the real estate industry through his various real estate enterprises.
 
While the Company has not yet identified any additional assets or properties to acquire, the Company believes that it will be able to consider numerous additional properties.  The Company anticipates that target acquisitions will be brought to its attention from a number of brokers and other real estate professionals with whom the Company’s current management has business relationships.  Moreover, potential acquisitions may be brought to the Company’s attention by sources as a result of being solicited by the Company through calls or mailings.  In no event will any of the Company’s existing or future officers, directors or shareholders or any entity with which they are affiliated be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of an acquisition.

The Company does not have any specific property acquisition under consideration, and the Company has not (nor has anyone on its behalf) contacted any prospective target acquisition or had any discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to such a transaction.  Moreover, no one has approached the Company regarding the possible sale of any of its properties to the Company.  Additionally, the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, taken any measure, directly or indirectly, to identify or locate any suitable property acquisition, nor has the Company engaged or retained any agent or other representative to identify or locate any such acquisition candidate. As a result, the Company has no assurance that it will be able to complete any further acquisitions.  In the future, the Company expects to be identifying and evaluating prospective property acquisition, performing business due diligence on prospective property acquisitions, traveling to and from the property and asset locations that represent prospective acquisitions, reviewing corporate, title, environmental, and financial documents and material agreements regarding prospective property acquisitions, selecting properties to acquire and striving to structure, negotiate and consummate acquisitions.  The Company will have certain burdens and costs with respect to these activities and certain additional risks associated with the subsequent integration of additional assets or properties into the Company’s operations.

The Company does not presently intend to invest in real estate mortgages, securities of or interests in persons primarily engaged in real estate activities (other than the Company’s current interest in Ananda Investments, LLC, or investments in other securities such as bonds, preferred stocks or common stocks.  However, the Company's Board of Directors may elect to make these investments in the future without a vote of shareholders.

For a description of the Company’s acquisition criterion and policies, see the sections captioned “BUSINESS - Acquisition Selection” and “BUSINESS -Policies with Respect to Certain Activities” in pre-effective Amendment No. 8 the Company’s Registration Statement to Form S-1 on Form S-11 filed on September 17, 2012 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Results of Operations - General
 
The Company was incorporated on August 10, 2009 for purposes of acquiring financially attractive real estate properties.  The Company made its first and heretofore only property acquisition in early January 2010.  This acquisition consisted of a 40% ownership interest in Ananda Investments, LLC, a Texas limited liability company that owns a particular real estate property near and west of downtown Houston, Texas.  Because it has owned only this single asset since 2010, the Company has limited financial results to report.
 
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, was signed into law on April 5, 2012.  As permitted under Section 102(b)(1) of this Act, the Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.  This election allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies.  As a result of this election, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates.

Results of Operations – REO Plus, Inc.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Expenses.  During the first three months of 2013, the Company had expenses in the amount of $36,065 from professional fees.  These expenses represent an increase of $14,561 from expenses in the amount of $21,504 for professional fees during the first three months of 2012.  Nearly all of these professional fees were for audit, accounting and legal fees incurred in connection with the Company’s first Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The audit and accounting fees increased for the preceding Annual Report from the audit and accounting fees for the Company’s financial statements for its fiscal 2011.
 
Other Income (Expense).  During the first three months of 2013, the Company had equity in income of its unconsolidated affiliate, Ananda Investments, LLC, in the amount of $2,814. The preceding amount represents an increase of $1,699 in the equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate from the amount of $1,115 during the first three months of 2012, as Ananda’s net income increased correspondingly from the earlier period to the latter.  During the first three months of 2013, the Company had interest expense in the amount of $5,931.  Of this amount, $3,325 was due to Mr. Church as consideration for his sale to the Company in early 2010 of the ownership interest in Ananda now owned by the Company.  The Company also accrued this same amount of interest in the first three months of 2012 for the same reason.  The remaining $2,606 of the $5,931 interest expense amount was due to Mr. Church and an entity controlled by him as consideration for loans made to the Company for operating expenses.  This represents a slight increase of $767 in interest accrued in the first three months of 2012 for the same reason.
 
Net loss.  In view of the preceding expenses (offset to some extent by equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate), the Company had a net loss in the amount of $39,182 during the first three months of 2013, or a per-share loss of $0.02, compared to net loss in the amount of $24,481 during the first three months of 2012, or a per-share loss of $0.01.

Results of Operations – Ananda Investments, LLC

Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Revenues.  During the first three months of 2013, Ananda had revenues in the amount of $24,741.  These revenues represent a increase from revenues in the amount of $20,557during the first three months of 2012, due to the higher rental rate that Ananda is now getting for its property.
 
Expenses.  During the first three months of 2013, Ananda had expenses in the amount of $11,287, comparable to expenses in the amount of $11,052 during the first three months of 2012.
 
Net Income from Operations.  In view of the increase in revenues and stable expenses, Ananda had net income from operations in the amount of $13,454 during the first three months of 2013, compared to net income from operations in the amount of $9,505 during the first three months of 2012.
 
Other Income (Expense).  During the first three months of 2013, Ananda had net interest expense in the amount of $6,419.  This net interest expense represents a slight increase from interest expense in the amount of $6,718 during the first three months of 2012.
 
Net Income.  In view of the preceding increase in revenues and comparatively stable net incomes from operations and interest expenses, Ananda had net income in the amount of $7,035 during the first three months of 2013, compared to net income in the amount of $2,787 during the first three months of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Requirements

The Company began its pursuit of real estate acquisitions in 2010.  Currently, the Company has only one real estate interest.  The Company cannot assure anyone that it will be able to acquire any additional real estate properties due to the Company’s limited financial resources at the present.  The Company expects to finance any future acquisition with a combination of a cash down payment (probably 10% to 25% or more of the purchase price) and seller or third party financing (for the remaining approximately 75% to 90% of the purchase price), although the Company may in limited circumstances be able to satisfy a portion of the purchase price for a property with the Company’s equity securities.  The Company will need to procure cash to fund future down payments from a future private equity offering.  Moreover, the Company expects that its largest shareholder may be required to guarantee personally the Company’s seller or third party financing.

 
21

 


The Company is currently trying to determine the scope of the acquisitions that it wishes to pursue.  The amount of capital that the Company will need will depend on the scope of the acquisitions that the Company ultimately decides to pursue, which is uncertain at this time.  However, for the Company to acquire any additional real estate properties, the Company would be required to undertake certain financing activities.  The sources for financing would most likely be private equity sources, such as institutional investors or wealthy individuals.  The Company currently does not have any binding commitments for, or readily available sources of, additional financing.  The Company cannot assure anyone that additional financing will be available to it when needed or, if available, that such financing can be obtained on commercially reasonably terms.  If the Company does not obtain additional financing, it will not be able to acquire any additional real estate properties, and perhaps will not even be able to stay in business for that matter.  If the Company does not obtain necessary additional financing, it may be constrained to attempt to sell the sole interest that it has heretofore acquired or additional interests that it may hereafter acquire.  However, the Company cannot assure anyone that it will be able to find interested buyers or that the funds received from any such sale would be adequate to fund the Company’s activities.  Under certain circumstances, the Company could be forced to cease its operations and liquidate its remaining assets, if any.  The Company cannot assure anyone that it will be successful in obtaining necessary capital and in its acquisition activities, although the Company believes that the procurement of additional financing and the completion of additional acquisitions will be easier in view of its recently acquired public status.

The Company has incurred losses since inception.  These losses have been financed by payments of expenses by Richard J. Church, the controlling stockholder of the Company.  Mr. Church has indicated that he intends to continue to pay any expenses that the Company experiences in excess of revenues for the next 12 months, but he is under no legal obligation to do so.  Accordingly, he could stop paying such expenses at any time, and the Company would be constrained to find alternative sources of payment.  The Company has no assurance that it will be able to find such alternative sources.  Moreover, if Mr. Church decides to stop financing the Company’s expenses, he may also decide to sell all or some portion of his stock in the Company to one or more persons who may elect to discontinue the Company’s historical business and change the Company’s business focus.

Known Trends

Because of the uncertainty in domestic real estate markets across the board, discerning definite trends is difficult, if not impossible.   Property values and property taxes have declined in targeted markets, but the continuation of this as a trend is uncertain.  Rents have remained fairly steady in targeted markets, but they could begin to decline if the domestic economy softens.  Management believes that most industry participants have assumed a “wait and see” approach, and the Company is evaluating opportunities on a property-by-property basis without relying upon any perceived trends.  The positive factor in today’s market is the historical lower interest rates, that may be fixed for a number of years and that significantly reduce the expense of any financing, although acquisition/refinancing loans are more difficult to obtain in today’s market and require a greater downpayment versus appraised value.

Seasonal Effects and Effects of Inflation

Management believes that the real estate interest that it currently owns is not, and the ones that it will seek to acquire in the future will not be, subject to seasonal variations.  Management further believes that inflation will not affect the Company for the foreseeable future since the Company’s financing is fixed through September 2014, although inflation may have greater effects in future years with increased interest rates, and in ways that cannot now be determined.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.  Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have identified that the lack of segregation of accounting duties as a result of limited personnel resources is a material weakness of its financial procedures.

 
22

 

Other than for this exception, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that our disclosure and controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation and there were no corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error 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 system 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 all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon 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; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the period of this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
