FOREX INTERNATIONAL TRADING CORP.

1. 
Organization and Nature of Business

Forex International Trading Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009 under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in El Segundo, California.  On September 9, 2009 the Company filed Form S-1 Registration Statement to provide for the registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company’s principal business activities have been to engage in foreign currency market trading for non-US resident professionals and retail clients over its web-based trading systems. While these trading operations have been closed, the Company continues to operate in the consulting segment of the foreign currency market, leveraging its contacts and knowledge, and  its consulting expertise in the area of foreign exchange. In addition, the Company is analyzing investments in joint ventures and is selectively pursuing acquisitions.

2.        Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forex International Trading Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Forex” or the Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and reports pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X for scaled disclosures for smaller reporting companies.  Accordingly, they do not include all, or include a condensed version of, the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  The Company believes, however, that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all material adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations of the Company for the periods shown.  Results shown for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year or for any future period.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed financial statements.  Actual results might differ from management’s estimates.  The consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2012 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recently audited financial statements and the notes thereto in such above referenced Annual Report on Form 10-K.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, allowances for doubtful accounts and loan losses, valuation of common and preferred stock issuances, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Notes and Short-Term Receivable
 
The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions. Impairment is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. The Company evaluates loans for impairment on an annual basis or when there are indications that the loan may not be collected. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment.  Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.  Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.  Renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
 
 
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term.
 
As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.  There were no impairment losses for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Fair value measurements
 
Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use.  GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy which requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability.  There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy that describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value.  The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:
 
 
Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
 
Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
 
Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.
 
The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
 
Treasury Stock
 
Treasury stock is recorded at cost.  The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 38,000 of its own shares.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which provides for an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and measured using the current tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the underlying assets or liabilities are anticipated to be recovered or settled.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.
 
U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur.  Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination.  The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2013, and is current in its tax filings.
 
The Company's federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2009, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2009.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Income from foreign currency operations is earned by referring potential customers to foreign exchange trading companies.  Foreign exchange trading companies remit a percentage of their revenues to the Company in exchange for customer leads, which the Company recognizes when the exchange trading occurs.
 
The Company recognizes consulting fees when services have been rendered.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
The Company calculates stock-based compensation expense including compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards based on their estimated grant date fair values.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over any required service period.  No such expenses were recognized for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.  
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted loss per share considers the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock, such as options, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock that then shared in loss. Such potential additional common shares are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  Diluted loss per share has not been computed for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 because any potential additional common shares would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an antidilutive effect.
 
 
 Reclassification

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no
impact on the Company's net loss or cash flows.

3.        Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company generated insignificant revenues in the first quarter of 2013 and in the fiscal year 2012, has had recurring losses from operations since inception, and has a negative working capital and stockholder’s deficiency as of March 31, 2013. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

4.        Investment in Joint Venture – Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc.
 
On February 13, 2012, Direct JV Investments Inc. ("JV"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the "JV Agreement") with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc. ("Vulcan"), whereby the Company would from time to time provide financing to certain Vulcan alternative, green and solar energy projects (the "Projects") with the goal of sharing in any rebates awarded by the government on any of the Projects. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, JV provided Vulcan with $68,000 in cash (the Funding") and credit for inventory valued at $31,328 for a total investment value of $99,328 (the "Investment").
 
On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, JV and Vulcan entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the JV Agreement was terminated.  The Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured and Collateralized Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "Vulcan Note" and collectively with the Forex Note, the "Notes") in consideration of the Forex Note.  The Investment of $99,328 was written off as of December 31, 2012 (as discussed in Note 8c).
 
The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum.  The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty.  The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion.  The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002.  At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.9% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.
 
The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum.  The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date.  The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules.  The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
After closing the Notes and recording of the difference as a debt discount, there are no further balances due between the parties and the JV Agreement is null and void. The Company has received Vulcan's consent (subject to a fee to be negotiated upon the Company entering an agreement, with a minimum fee in the amount of the Funding) to begin negotiations with private groups to purchase certain knowledge and assets for the production of proprietary solar modules, directly or via third party. While management is of the opinion that these discussions may successfully produce agreements, there can be no guarantee of this.

On January 22, 2010, the Company signed an amendment to extend the maturity date of the promissory notes in the amount of $25,000 and $50,000 dated October 6, 2009 and October 20, 2009, respectively, to October 30, 2011. On March 2, 2011, the Company and Rasel agreed to extend the maturity of all notes to December 31, 2012 in consideration of adding a conversion feature to the notes with either a 5% discount to the market price or a fixed price of $0.60.  The extension of maturity was effective as of December 30, 2010.
 
The balance of the notes as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $142,073 and $140,778, respectively, which includes accrued interest in the amounts of $17,073 and $15,778 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The note is currently in default; the Company will attempt to reach an amicable settlement with the counterparty.
 
b) Glendon Note Payable
 
On September 30, 2012, the Company converted a payable in the amount of $155,242 to a note payable. The note bears annual interest at 10%, and was to mature on December 31, 2012. The Company has negotiated an extension to the maturity date until December 31, 2013. The balance at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, including accrued interest, is $125,639 and $81,829, respectively.
 
c) Note Payable to Vulcan

On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, JV and Vulcan entered an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the JV Agreement was terminated, the Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured and Collateralized Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000. The Company recognized a debt discount in the amount of $100,000 for the difference in the face value of the note issued and the note received from the same party. The face value of the note payable is shown net of the debt discount. This debt discount will be amortized over the one-year life of the note. The note has a maturity date of December 31, 2013, and can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10-day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.

As of March 31, 2013, $25,000 of the debt discount has been amortized in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, $4,125 of interest expense was accrued during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Series B Preferred Shares
 
On November 1, 2011, the Company and certain creditors entered into a Settlement Agreement (the "Agreement") whereby without admitting any wrongdoing on either part, the parties settled all previous agreements and resolved any existing disputes.  Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue the creditors 45,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company on a pro-rata basis.  Following the issuance and delivery of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to said creditors, as well as surrendering the undelivered shares, the Agreement resulted in the settlement of all debts, liabilities and obligations between the parties.
 
The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share representing 15,000,000 common shares. Furthermore, the Series B Preferred Stock votes on an as converted basis and carries standard anti-dilution rights.

Series C Preferred Shares

On April 29, 2011, GV Global Communications, Inc. (“GV”) provided funding to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $111,000 (the “Loan”).  On September 25, 2012, the Company and GV entered into a Conversion Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to convert the Loan into 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company, which was approved by the Board of Directors.

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of GV, into such number of shares of common stock of the Company as determined by dividing the Stated Value (as defined below) by the Conversion Price (as defined below).  The Conversion Price for each share is equal to a 50% discount to the average of the lowest three lowest closing bid prices of the Company’s common stock during the 10 day trading period prior to the conversion with a minimum conversion price of $0.002.  The stated value is $11.00 per share (the “Stated Value”).  The Series C Preferred Stock has no liquidation preference, does not pay dividends and the holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock that the Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible into.   GV has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the Series C Preferred Stock and receive shares of the Company's common stock such that the number of shares of the Company's common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock.

The issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock was made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated under Regulation D thereunder.  GV is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

11.      Contingencies
 
Legal Proceedings
 
From time to time, the Company may be involved in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  There is currently no litigation that management believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
 
12.      Per Share Information

Loss per share
 
Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted loss per share of common stock (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding.  At March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, there were 116,901,296 and 15,217,578, of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding, respectively. The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at March 31, 2013 arise from (i) the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares which are convertible into 15 million shares, (ii) the issuance of the Rasel note which is convertible into 234,630 shares, (iii) the issuance of 10,000 Series C Preferred Shares having a stated value of $100 per share which are convertible into 18,333,333 common shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock, and (iv) the issuance of a $500,000 convertible note payable to Vulcan, which is convertible into 83,333,333 shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock.  The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at March 31, 2012 arise from the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares convertible into 15 million shares and the issuance of the Rasel note convertible into 217,578 shares. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on the net loss per common share.

13.      Subsequent Events
 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the balance sheet date through the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements became available to be issued.

General Overview

Forex International Trading Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009 under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in El Segundo, California.  The Company’s principal business activities have been to engage in foreign currency market trading for non-US resident professionals and retail clients over its web-based trading systems. While these trading operations have been closed, the Company continues to operate in the consulting segment of the foreign currency market, leveraging its contacts and knowledge, and earned revenue in the first quarter of 2013 by leveraging its consulting expertise in the area of foreign exchange. In addition, the Company is analyzing investments in joint ventures and is selectively pursuing acquisitions.

Results of Operations:

The Company has reduced its debt outstanding by paying off the Cordelia note during the fourth quarter of 2012. On September 25, 2012, the Company and GV entered into a separate conversion agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to convert the loan into 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company, which resulted in a loss on settlement of debt in the amount of $111,340 recognized in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company accrued interest payable of $1,295 on its Rasel note payable and $3,430 on its note payable to Glendon. The Company has a note receivable from Vulcan at 10% per annum with a face value of $400,000, and therefore accrued $10,000 of interest income during the first quarter. The Company has a note payable with a face value of $500,000 and a debt discount of $100,000 to Vulcan where a portion of the debt discount was amortized during the first quarter. The Company calculated the interest at 4% per annum based on the average face value of the note during the first quarter. The Company accrued $4,125 as interest expense on the note payable, but recorded $10,000 in interest income on the note receivable.

The decrease in net other income and expense is due to the Company recognizing more interest income as a result of the note receivable entered into in 2012, as well as lowering the amount of debt owed during 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents were $22 and $618 for the periods ended March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, a decrease of $596.

Cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $(40,976), and $(267,194), respectively. The primary reason for the use of cash in operations was the net loss incurred at March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company reduced its accounts payable more dramatically in the first quarter of 2012, but had more interest expense (and less interest income) in the period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2013.   Additionally, in the first quarter of 2012, the Company amortized a portion of its website; in the same quarter of 2013, however, the Company’s website had been completely amortized. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company amortized $25,000 of the debt discount on the note payable to Vulcan.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0 and $191,642, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company issued a $15,000 note receivable and invested $8,000 in a joint venture. In the same period, the Company collected $214,642 from a note receivable from Triple 8.  

Cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $40,380 and $(300,000), respectively.  During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company borrowed more under an existing note payable with a third party. During the same quarter during 2012, the Company paid $300,000 on a note payable.
 
On February 13, 2012, DirectJV entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the "JV Agreement") with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc. ("Vulcan"), whereby the Company would from time to time provide financing to certain Vulcan alternative, green and solar energy projects (the "Projects") with the goal of sharing in any rebates awarded by the government on any of the Projects. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, Direct JV provided Vulcan with $68,000 in cash (the Funding") and credit for inventory valued at $31,328 for a total investment value of $99,328 (the "Investment").
 
 
On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, DirectJV and Vulcan entered an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the DirectJV Agreement was terminated, the Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "Vulcan Note" and collectively with the Forex Note, the "Notes") in consideration of the Forex Note.
 
The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.9% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.
 
The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum. The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date. The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules. The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
After closing the Notes and recording of the difference as a debt discount, there are no further balances between the parties and the JV Agreement is null and void. The Company has received Vulcan's consent (subject to a fee to be negotiated upon the Company entering an agreement, with a minimum fee in the amount of the Funding) to begin negotiations with private groups to purchase certain knowledge and assets for the production of proprietary solar modules, directly or via third party. While management is of the opinion that these discussions may successfully produce agreements, there can be no guarantee of this.
 
We plan to raise working capital that will allow us to conduct our business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding our ability to raise that capital. We expect to use the proceeds to fund our short-term capital requirements including paying administrative expenses associated with maintaining our public company’s filings for the next 12 months.    In order to implement our business plan and pay various administrative expenses on a minimal basis for the next 12 months, we expect that we will need approximately $25,000 per month, minimum.   We expect to be able to remain in operations for a period of 12 months with cash on hand and/or cash from collecting receivables and/or other debts.  The Company expects that its operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future and will depend on a number of factors including the state of the worldwide economy and financial markets, which are outside the Company's control.

Debt Financing Arrangements
 
Rasel, LTD:
On October 6, 2009 the Company signed a Note Payable for $25,000 payable to Rasel due on October 6, 2010 at 4% per annum.   The proceeds were used to pay for half of an existing Accounts Payable for legal fees incurred at the Company’s inception. On October 20, 2009 the Company signed a Note Payable for $50,000 payable to Rasel due on October 20, 2010 at 4% per annum.  These proceeds were used to pay for startup costs, audit fees and future expenses. On January 22, 2010 the Company signed a Note Payable for $50,000 payable to Rasel due on October 30, 2011 at 4% per annum.  These proceeds were used for working capital and future expenses.

On March 2, 2011 the Company and Rasel agreed to extend the maturity of all notes to December 31, 2012 in consideration of adding a conversion feature to said note with either a 5% discount to the market price or a fixed price of $0.60. The extension of maturity was agreed to be effective as of December 30, 2010.

The balance of the Rasel notes including accrued interest as of March 31, 2013 is $142,073, which includes $1,295 of interest accrued during the first quarter of 2013. As of March 31, 2013, the Company is in default on the Rasel notes. The Company will try to resolve the balance due.

The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty.

The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum. The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date. The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules. The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
During the first quarter, the Company amortized 25% of the debt discount of $100,000. The debt discount will be fully amortized over the year. The Company accrued $4,125 as interest expense on the note payable during the first quarter of 2013.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, allowances for doubtful accounts and loan losses, valuation of common and preferred stock issuances, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Notes and Short-Term Receivable
 
The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions. Impairment is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. The Company evaluates loans for impairment on an annual basis or when there are indications that the loan may not be collected. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment.  Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Income from foreign currency operations is earned by referring potential customers to foreign exchange trading companies.  Foreign exchange trading companies remit a percentage of their revenues to the Company in exchange for customer leads, which the Company recognizes when the exchange trading occurs.
 
The Company recognizes consulting fees when services have been rendered.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
The Company calculates stock-based compensation expense including compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards based on their estimated grant date fair values.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over any required service period.  No such expenses were recognized for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.  
 
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted loss per share considers the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock, such as options, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock that then shared in loss. Such potential additional common shares are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  Diluted loss per share has not been computed for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 because any potential additional common shares would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an antidilutive effect.
 
Dividends
 
The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends.  No dividends have been paid or declared since the Date of Inception.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As a smaller reporting company, without a viable business and revenues, the Company does not have the resources to install a dedicated staff with deep expertise in all facets of SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance. As is the case with many smaller reporting companies, the Company will continue to consult with its external auditors and attorneys as it relates to new accounting principles and changes to SEC disclosure requirements. The Company has found that this approach worked well in the past and believes it to be the most cost effective solution available for the foreseeable future.  The Company will conduct a review of existing sign-off and review procedures as well as document control protocols for critical accounting spreadsheets. The Company will also increase management's review of key financial documents and records.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company does not have the resources to fund sufficient staff to ensure a complete segregation of responsibilities within the accounting function. However, Company management does review, and will increase the review of, financial statements on a monthly basis, and the Company's external auditor conducts reviews on a quarterly basis. These actions, in addition to the improvements identified above, will minimize any risk of a potential material misstatement occurring.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 

 
From time to time, the Company may be involved in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  There is currently no litigation that management believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
