Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

April 30, 2013 and 2012

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim financial statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.” Revenue for our products is most often recognized upon delivery of the products to the customer, but in no case prior to when the risk of loss and other risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Net revenues reflect gross revenues less sales discounts, customer rebates, sales incentives, and product returns. In accordance with accounting standards for consideration given by a vendor to a customer (including a reseller of the vendor's products), we record reserves for customer rebates, typically based upon projected customer volumes. In addition, in connection with obtaining long-term supply agreements from our funeral home customers, we may offer sales incentives in the form of custom showrooms and fixtures. Costs associated with these sales incentives are amortized over the term of the related agreement, typically 3 to 5 years. Our sales terms generally offer customers various rights of return. We record reserves for estimated product returns in accordance with the standards for revenue recognition when a right of return exists.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories are acquired from a contract manufacturer and are, therefore, all finished goods.

 

7
 

 

Loan Costs

 

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 310-20-25, Loan Origination Fees and Direct Loan Origination Costs, and defers direct costs incurred to originate a loan. Deferred loans costs are amortized on a straight-line basis because of the short term nature of the related debt.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50, Equity Based Payments to Non-employees, which requires all stock-based payments to service providers, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values on the date of grant

 

The Company issues stock-based compensation awards to contractors, vendors and for marketing purposes. This compensation is generally in the form of restricted shares of common stock.

 

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on the awards' fair value which is generally the quoted market value of common shares on the date that the contract mandating the award issuance is executed. The Company recognizes the expense on a straight-line basis over the service period of the related contract. However, if shares of common stock are issued as of the inception of a contract period and the Company does not have the right to recover any of the shares for nonperformance, the entire expense is recognized at the inception date of the contract.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

 

Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section FASB ASC 260-10-45. Basic and diluted net income per common share has been calculated by dividing the net income for the period by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding assuming that the Company incorporated as of the beginning of the first period presented. There were no dilutive shares outstanding at April 30, 2013 or 2012. Issuable common stock is not included in the calculation of basic or diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding because including these shares would be antidilutive.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements-Discontinued Operations, the Company reported the results of its commercial cleaning services as a discontinued operation. The results of operations of business dispositions are segregated from continuing operations and reflected as discontinued operations in current and prior periods.

 

8
 

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

There were no new accounting pronouncements that had a significant impact on the Company’s operating results or financial position.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had recurring losses and an accumulated deficit amount to$1,365,002 through April 30, 2013 and had no committed source of debt or equity financing. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

While the Company is emphasizing a new product line involving the manufacture and sale of sports performance or energy drinks along with any other non-alcoholic beverage under the trade name, Dethrone Beverages, there are uncertainties as to whether the Company will obtain sufficient financing to introduce and distribute the planned product or, if distributed, there will be sufficient market demand for the products.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with an unaffiliated party (the “Third Party”) under which the Company received a one-year loan with a principal balance of $100,000. The loan bears interest at 20% per annum with interest payments due quarterly. In addition, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to the lender and Mr. Holley and McBride pledged their 56,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as collateral and transferred 1,000,000 shares of free trading shares to the lender. The Company reflected expense in the amount of $120,000 in connection with this transfer. If the Company goes into default of the provisions of the loan, it becomes convertible into the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.001 per share (100 million shares). If an event of default occurs, the lender will have the ability of becoming the controlling shareholder of the Company. The Company recorded an initial deferred loan cost in the amount of $325,000 in connection with the issuance of the 2,500,000 shares. This loan cost is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan or twelve months. The company reflected amortization of deferred loan costs in the amount of $121,875 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013, which is reflected in the statement of operations as a financing cost in the form of interest expense.

 

On June 20, 2013, the Company and the Third party entered into an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”) which amended certain terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended Note, the Company’s repayment of the principal balance of the Amended Note is secured by all the assets of the Company. In addition, the provisions of the Note whereby Mssrs. Holley and McBride pledged 56,250,000 of their shares of common stock of the Company were removed.

 

At any time after the date of issuance and until the Amended Note is no longer outstanding, the Amended Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part into shares of the Company’s common stock (each a “Conversion Share”) at the rate of $0.001 per share for a maximum of 100 Million shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustments), at any time and at the option of the Holder.

 

The Amended Note will be Senior to all notes, debentures and any loan entered into by the Company for the term of the Amended Note until the Amended Note is repaid in full.

 

The Company may, only with the prior consent of the Holder, pre-pay the Amended Note within 180 days by paying 115% of the Principal due plus all accrued interest. From day 181 to 365 the Amended Note can be pre-paid by paying 100% of the Amended Note plus all accrued interest.

 

With respect to the issuance of the Amended Note, the Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of the securities referenced herein pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering.

 

9
 

 

On February 27, 2013, the Company entered into a $335,000 convertible loan agreement. The agreement provides for a $35,000 original issue discount. The lender, at its discretion, may provide funds up to $300,000 to the Company. It provided $60,000 at the closing of the agreement on April 30, 2013. All loans under the agreement are payable in full one year after the funds are issued together with a prorated portion of the original issue discount. All amounts outstanding under the agreement become convertible, at the lender’s discretion, into shares of the Company’s common stock starting 180 days from the execution date of the agreement. The conversion rate per share is the lower of (i) $0.044 or (ii) 60% of the lowest trade price during the 25 trading days prior to a conversion notice. The lender has agreed that it will not execute any short trades and, at no time, will hold more than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

 

If the Company repays all amounts outstanding under the agreement within 90 days of the execution date, there will be no interest amounts due. If it does not pay all amounts due within 90 days of the execution date, it cannot make any other prepayments of the amounts outstanding without the consent of the lender. In addition, there will be a one-time interest charge of 12% of the amounts outstanding. The Company must also register all shares that are issuable under the agreement in any Registration Statement that it files with the SEC for any purpose.

 

Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Debenture), the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing on the Debenture through the date of the acceleration shall become at the Debenture holder’s election immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount (as defined in the Debenture).   Commencing five days after the occurrence of an Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of the Debenture, the interest rate on the Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.

 

In connection with the sale of the Debenture, on April 30, 2013 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) the Company issued the purchaser of the Debenture a warrant to purchase 3,726,708 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.03 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the debenture).   The Warrant is exercisable on a cashless basis (as provided in the Warrant) and as a result there is no assurance that any part of the Warrant will be exercised for cash.  The warrant terminates three years from the Initial Exercise Date and on such date the Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise.

 

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the $60,000 advance on the convertible debenture was paid in full.

 

NOTE 4 – SHARE CAPITAL

 

In August 2012, the Company raised $12,000 for 120,000 restricted shares of common stock, and $100,000 for 670,000 restricted shares of common stock. The stock certificate for these shares was issued in November 2012.

 

10
 

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock in connection with the issuance of the convertible note referred to in Note 3 in the amount of $100,000.

 

In January 2013 the Company received an investment of $15,000 for 300,000 restricted shares.

 

During the nine months ended April 30, 2013, the Company entered into three-year endorsement agreements with four sports figures who have agreed to endorse the Company and its products for an aggregate of 3,500,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock plus an additional 1,800,000 contingent restricted shares based on certain performance criteria. The Company has recorded an aggregate Marketing Expense of $188,000 relating to the shares that are issuable for Year One of each of the agreements. The Company evaluated these awards under FASB ASC 505-50 and determined that awards dependent upon performance conditions should be recognized as expense as the performance conditions are met.

 

Sponsorship of Texas versus The Nation football game

 

On January 4, 2013 the Company entered into an agreement to be the 2013 Title Sponsor of Texas vs. The Nation which was held on February 2, 2013 at Eagle Stadium in Allen, Texas. In consideration for its sponsorship, the Company has given Overtime Marketing SE, LLC the right to purchase 5,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock at a price per share equal to 125% of par value ($.001) to be paid in US currency at time of acquisition. The shares will be made available for sale upon the following schedule:

 

·1,250,000 shares at the time of execution of the formal Sponsorship Contract;

 

·1,250,000 shares 180 days after execution of Sponsorship Contract;

 

·1,250,000 shares 360 days after execution of Sponsorship Contract; and

 

·1,250,000 shares 540 days after execution of Sponsorship Contract.

 

The Company recorded an expense equal to all the shares covered by the Sponsorship Contract based on the price of Company shares on the date the Company entered into the agreement which resulted in a recorded expense of approximately $693,750 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013.

 

NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In April 2012, Dethrone Beverage, Inc. (“DB”) entered into an exclusive license agreement with Dethrone Royalty Holdings, Inc. giving DB the right to use the Dethrone trademark worldwide in connection with the manufacture and sale of sports performance or energy drinks along with any other non-alcoholic beverage under the Trade Name, Dethrone Beverages.

 

11
 

 

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. is for five years and requires payments as follows:

4 $150,000 or 6% of Gross profit, whichever is higher
5 $200,000 or 6% of Gross profit, whichever is higher

 

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. specifies minimum levels of sales which, if not attained by DB, gives Dethrone Royalty, Inc. the right to terminate the License Agreement. These minimums are as follows:

 

Year  Minimum Sales 
1  $-0- 
2  $3,000,000 
3  $6,000,000 
4  $9,000,000 
5  $12,000,000 

 

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty Holdings, Inc. also requires DB to maintain various liability insurance coverage.

 

NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, the Company has evaluated subsequent events from May 1, 2013 through June 21, 2013, the date of issuance of the financial statements and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose other than the matters disclosed below.

 

As noted in note 3, subsequent to the end of the quarter the $60,000 advance on the convertible note which was advanced on April 30, 2013 was repaid in full within the 90 days specified in the agreement through which no interest would be due.

 

In February 2013, the Company entered into three-year endorsement agreements with two sports figures who have agreed to endorse the Company and its products for an aggregate of 1,027,500 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock plus an additional 607,500 contingent restricted shares based on certain performance criteria. The Company will record marketing expenses of about $15,000 in February 2013 in connection with these contracts.

Item 2.   NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain matters discussed herein are forward-looking statements.  Such forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to:

 

·our future operating results;
·our business prospects;
·any contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;
·the dependence of our future success on the general economy;
·any possible financings; and
·the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital.

 

These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as we “believe," “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate” or words of similar meaning.   Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements.   Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which are described in close proximity to such statements and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated as of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q.   Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.   The forward-looking statements included herein are only made as of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

 

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

 

In February 2012, the Company approved a 31.25 for 1 forward split of its common stock effective March 17, 2012. All share and per share disclosures give retroactive effect to this forward split.

 

Our independent registered auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2012 and 2011 that states that our lack of resources causes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Operations

 

We were founded as an unincorporated DBA in February 1997 and were incorporated as a C corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 11, 2010. The incorporation effort included the Company issuing 10,000,000 shares of common stock to Patricia G. Skarpa, who founded and managed the business which had been operating continuously as a DBA since February 1997, and 300,000 shares to Hallie Beth Skarpa, our other director, for services rendered. These services involving the incorporation planning were valued at $10,300. Hallie Beth Skarpa is the daughter of Patricia G. Skarpa. The day-to-day operations of the Company did not change as a result of the change in legal structure.

 

On January 10, 2012, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, TO Sports Innovation, Inc. (“TO”), in Nevada. TO was inactive until March 15, 2012. Its name was changed to Dethrone Beverage, Inc. (“DB”).

 

In April 2012, DB entered into an exclusive license agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. giving DB the right to use the Dethrone trademark worldwide in connection with the manufacture and sale of sports performance or energy drinks along with any other non-alcoholic beverage under the trade name, Dethrone Beverages.

 

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. is for five years and requires payments as follows:

 

Year Royalty
1 12% of Gross Profit
2 $50,000 plus 8% of Gross Profit
3 $100,000 or 6% of Gross profit, whichever is higher
4 $150,000 or 6% of Gross profit, whichever is higher
5 $200,000 or 6% of Gross profit, whichever is higher

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. specifies minimum levels of sales which, if not attained by DB, gives Dethrone Royalty, Inc. the right to terminate the License Agreement. These minimums are as follows:

 

Year  Minimum Sales 
1  $-0- 
2  $3,000,000 
3  $6,000,000 
4  $9,000,000 
5  $12,000,000 

 

The License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. also requires DB to maintain various liability insurance coverage.

 

The Company’s officers have formulas that will be used for the initial products that are planned. They have undertaken efforts to raise the financing necessary to manufacture the initial products using outside contractors and implement marketing programs. The initial expenditures are being used for:

 

·Production of bottles, labels and caps,
·Purchase of inventory needed for beverage content,
·Marketing materials,
·Travel and business expenses, and
·Shipping costs of our first orders.

 

Spinoff and Related Matters

 

On March 26, 2012, the Company entered into a Spinoff Agreement with Patricia G. Skarpa and Hallie Beth Skarpa, who were its officers and directors, as well as its largest shareholders, under which the Company agreed to sell all of the assets relating to the segment of its business that provided commercial cleaning services to office buildings in exchange for all of the liabilities, as defined, of the commercial cleaning business and the return by Patricia G. Skarpa and Hallie Beth Skarpa of an aggregate of 265,625,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the Spinoff Agreement the Company ceased to be engaged in providing commercial cleaning services to office buildings, and the commercial cleaning operations became a discontinued operation for financial reporting purposes.

 

On March 26, 2012, Patricia G. Skarpa and Hallie Beth Skarpa entered into agreements with Toby McBride and Michael Jay Holly under which they agreed to sell 28,125,000 shares of common stock to each (or an aggregate of 56,250,000 shares).

 

Concurrent with the execution of the Spinoff Agreement described above, the Board of Directors elected Toby McBride and Michael J. Holly as Directors. Mr. McBride was also appointed as President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Holly was appointed Vice President and Secretary.

 

Messrs. Holley and McBride each devote 100% of their time to us.

 

Upon electing Messrs. McBride and Holly to the Board of Directors, Patricia G. Skarpa and Hallie Beth Skarpa each resigned their positions as officers and directors effective immediately. The resignations of Patricia G. Skarpa and Hallie Beth Skarpa were not in connection with any known disagreement with us on any matter.

Current Status

 

We have begun distribution of our product as of first calendar quarter of 2013, distributing 21 pallets. Currently we have two flavors of one product and will distribute in California to convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores and gyms. We currently work with a beverage manufacturer in Florida and several companies for packaging materials. Our initial purchase required payment upfront. Thereafter we will get net 30 day payment terms. We will ship product to two distributors with net 30 day terms.

 

We have also entered into an agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. which:

 

·Enables us to change our corporate name to Dethrone Royalty Holdings, Inc. (“DRH”), which we did in August 2012.

 

·Have the right to match any offer that Dethrone Royalty, Inc. receives to be acquired.

 

·Dethrone Royalty, Inc. and the Company will create links to each other’s websites.

 

·Dethrone Royalty, Inc. will produce and distribute lines of shirts/clothing for each sports figure signed as endorsers by the Company and market the shirts through its normal distribution channels. The Company will receive commissions equal to 12.5% of the net sales generated by these shirts.

 

We have also entered into contracts with several professional sports personalities (Jonathan Quick, Aldon Smith Haloti Nagata and Taj Gibson) to represent us by endorsing our products. All contracts cover three years and require us to issue an aggregate of 3,500,000 restricted shares of common stock over the lives of the contracts plus up to an additional 1,800,000 contingent shares based on performance criteria. We have recorded an aggregate Marketing Expense of $188,000 relating to the shares that are issuable for Year One of each of the agreements.

 

The Company is also negotiating an agreement with the agent who introduced the sports figures to the Company and may issue an additional 750,000 restricted shares of common stock to that agent and has letters of intent with additional sports figures (Pablo Sandavol, Matt Mulson, Kevin Shattenberg and Mike Goldberg) for endorsement agreements. There are no assurances that agreements described in letters of intent will result in executed contracts.

Revenue

 

Revenue increased by $43,303 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013, compared to $0 for the nine months ended April 30, 2012.  This increase in revenues was the result of the company commencing substantive operatiosn.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expense increased by $1,258,863 to $1,280,702 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013, compared to $21,839 for the nine months ended April 30, 2012. This decrease in G&A expenses was primarily due to the commencement of substantive operations and share based compensation.

 

Marketing – for the nine months ended April 30, 2013 includes $188,000 relating to the shares that are issuable for Year One of each of the agreements with the four athletes who have agreed to endorse our products.

 

Compensation – all compensation has been paid to Messrs. McBride and Holley.

 

Interest expense and finance costs consist of $148,958 of amortization of deferred loan costs in connection with the issuance of the 2,500,000 shares associated with receiving a loan for $100,000 and interest of $4,167 on that loan.

 

Liquidity

 

Private capital has been sought from former business associates of our two officers or private investors referred to us by those business associates.

 

On May 4, 2012, the Company sold 400,000 newly-issued restricted shares of common stock for $50,000 ($0.125 per share).

 

In August 2012, the Company raised $12,000 for 120,000 restricted shares of common stock, and $100,000 for 670,000 restricted shares of common stock.  The stock certificate for these shares was issued in November 2012.

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with an unaffiliated party (the “Third Party”) under which the Company received a one-year loan with a principal balance of $100,000. The loan bears interest at 20% per annum with interest payments due quarterly. In addition, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to the lender and Messrs. Holley and McBride pledged their 56,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as collateral. If the Company goes into default of the provisions of the loan, it becomes convertible into the Company’s common stock at a price of $.001 per share (or up to 100 million shares). If a default occurs, the lender will have the ability of becoming the controlling shareholder of the Company. The Company recorded a deferred loan cost in the amount of $325,000 in connection with the issuance of the 2,500,000 shares and has reflected amortization of those costs in the form of interest expense in the amount of $148,958 for the nine months ended April 30, 2013. On June 20, 2013, the Company and the Third party entered into an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”) which amended certain terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended Note, the Company’s repayment of the principal balance of the Amended Note is secured by all the assets of the Company. In addition, the provisions of the Note whereby Mssrs. Holley and McBride pledged 56,250,000 of their shares of common stock of the Company were removed.

 

At any time after the date of issuance and until the Amended Note is no longer outstanding, the Amended Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part into shares of the Company’s common stock (each a “Conversion Share”) at the rate of $0.001 per share for a maximum of 100 Million shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustments), at any time and at the option of the Holder.

 

The Amended Note will be Senior to all notes, debentures and any loan entered into by the Company for the term of the Amended Note until the Amended Note is repaid in full.

 

The Company may, only with the prior consent of the Holder, pre-pay the Amended Note within 180 days by paying 115% of the Principal due plus all accrued interest. From day 181 to 365 the Amended Note can be pre-paid by paying 100% of the Amended Note plus all accrued interest.

 

With respect to the issuance of the Amended Note, the Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of the securities referenced herein pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering.

 

Convertible Notes

 

On February 27, 2013, the Company entered into a $335,000 convertible loan agreement. The agreement provides for a $35,000 original issue discount. The lender, at its discretion, may provide funds up to $300,000 to the Company. It provided $60,000 at the closing of the agreement on April 30, 2013. All loans under the agreement are payable in full one year after the funds are issued together with a prorated portion of the original issue discount. All amounts outstanding under the agreement become convertible, at the lender’s discretion, into shares of the Company’s common stock starting 180 days from the execution date of the agreement. The conversion rate per share is the lower of (i) $0.044 or (ii) 60% of the lowest trade price during the 25 trading days prior to a conversion notice.  The lender has agreed that it will not execute any short trades and, at no time, will hold more than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

 

16
 

 

If the Company repays all amounts outstanding under the agreement within 90 days of the execution date, there will be no interest amounts due. If it does not pay all amounts due within 90 days of the execution date, it cannot make any other prepayments of the amounts outstanding without the consent of the lender. In addition, there will be a one-time interest charge of 12% of the amounts outstanding. The Company must also register all shares that are issuable under the agreement in any Registration Statement that it files with the SEC for any purpose.

 

The Company is negotiating with other potential funding sources, the proceeds from which, if received, would repay all amounts due under this agreement within 90 days of the execution date. If all amounts are repaid within the 90 day period, the agreement will be considered terminated and all convertibility features would no longer exist.

 

Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Debenture), the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing on the Debenture through the date of the acceleration shall become at the Debenture holder’s election immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount (as defined in the Debenture).   Commencing five days after the occurrence of an Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of the Debenture, the interest rate on the Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.

 

In connection with the sale of the Debenture, on April 30, 2013 the Company issued the purchaser of the Debenture a warrant to purchase 3,726,708 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.03 per share (subject to adjustment as provided in the debenture).   The Warrant is exercisable on a cashless basis (as provided in the Warrant) and as a result there is no assurance that any part of the Warrant will be exercised for cash.  The warrant terminates three years from the Initial Exercise Date and on such date the Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise.

 

This convertible debenture was repaid subsequent to the end of the quarter.

 

We will continue to seek financing for working capital as necessary but cannot give any assurances that we will be successful in doing so.

 

We are a public company and, as such, have incurred and will continue to incur additional significant expenses for legal, accounting and related services.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements and related notes requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

 

An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements.

 

Financial Reporting Release No. 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements.  There are no critical policies or decisions that rely on judgments that are based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made.  The financial statements include a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Seasonality

 

We do not yet have a basis to determine whether our business will be seasonal.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K, obligations under any guarantee contracts or contingent obligations. We also have no other commitments, other than the costs of being a public company that will increase our operating costs or cash requirements in the future

 

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports filed or submitted by the Company 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. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports that are filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Principal Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of disclosure and controls and procedures.

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

 

There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this quarterly report.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

Currently we are not aware of any litigation pending or threatened by or against the Company.

 

Item 1A.  RISK FACTORS

 

You should be aware that there are various risks to an investment in our common stock. You should carefully consider these risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this Report, before you decide to invest in shares of our common stock.

 

If any of the following risks develop into actual events, then our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the market price of our common stock, if any, could decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

 

Risks Related to the Business

 

DRH has virtually no financial resources. Our independent registered auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

DRH has virtually no financial resources. We have negative working capital and a stockholders’ deficit at January 31, 2013. Our independent registered auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 that states that this lack of resources causes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. No assurances can be given that we will generate sufficient revenue or obtain necessary financing to continue as a going concern.

 

DRH i s and will continue to be completely dependent on the services of our senior officers, Toby McBride and Michael Jay Holley, the loss of whose services may cause our business operations s currently contemplated to cease, and we will need to engage and retain qualified employees and consultants to further implement our strategy.

 

DRH’s operations and business strategy are completely dependent upon the knowledge and business connections of Toby McBride and Michael Jay Holley. They are under no contractual obligation to remain employed by us. If either or both should choose to leave us for any reason or if either becomes ill and is unable to work for an extended period of time before we have hired additional personnel, our operations will likely fail. Even if we are able to find additional personnel, it is uncertain whether we could find someone who could develop our business along the lines described in this prospectus. We will fail without the services of Messrs. McBride and Holley or an appropriate replacement(s).

 

We intend to acquire key-man life insurance on the lives of Messrs. McBride and Holley naming us as the beneficiary when and if we obtain the resources to do so and if they are insurable. We have not yet procured such insurance, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain such insurance in the future. Accordingly, it is important that we are able to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified and talented personnel and independent contractors.

 

Many of our likely competitors have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we.

 

Many of our likely competitors have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we. Many of these competitors have sophisticated management, are in a position to purchase inventory at the lowest prices and have the ability to advertise in a wide variety of media, including television. There are no assurances that our brand will be successful.

Our license agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. specifies minimum levels of sales which must be met. If we lost that License Agreement, our operations as currently planned are likely to fail

 

Our License Agreement with Dethrone Royalty, Inc. specifies minimum levels of sales which, if not attained, gives Dethrone Royalty, Inc. the right to terminate the License Agreement.  We will market our products very aggressively, but there are no assurances that we will be successful in meeting the targets set forth in the License Agreement. If we lost that License Agreement, our operations as currently planned are likely to fail.

 

We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that will require us to incur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports. These additional costs could reduce or eliminate our ability to earn a profit.

 

We are required to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm will have to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major effect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys. However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.

 

In no case will the proceeds of this offering be sufficient to assist us in any way to meet any portion of these incremental costs of being public.

 

Toby McBride and Michael Jay Holley, our principal officers, have no significant experience managing a public company and no meaningful accounting or financial reporting education or experience and, accordingly, our ability to meet Exchange Act reporting requirements on a timely basis will be dependent to a significant degree upon others.

 

Messrs. McBride and Holley have no significant experience managing a public company and no meaningful financial reporting education or experience. They are and will be heavily dependent on engaging and dealing with outside professional advisors, primarily lawyers and financial advisors/accountants who are and will not be affiliated with our independent auditors. We have no formal arrangements with professionals and cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to establish arrangements with professionals on terms or costs that are acceptable or affordable to us.

 

Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

·pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
·provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and/or directors of the Company; and
·provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

20
 

 

Our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.

 

Having only two directors limits our ability to establish effective independent corporate governance procedures and increases the control of our president over operations and business decisions.

 

We have only two directors, who are also our principal executive officers. Accordingly, we cannot establish board committees comprised of independent members to oversee functions like compensation or audit issues. In addition, a tie vote of board members is decided in favor of the chairman, which gives her significant control over all corporate issues, including all major decisions on operations and corporate matters such as approving business combinations.

 

Until we have a larger board of directors that would include some independent members, if ever, there will be limited oversight of our president’s decisions and activities and little ability for minority shareholders to challenge or reverse those activities and decisions, even if they are not in the best interests of minority shareholders.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through issuance of additional shares of our common stock.

 

We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our board of directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued restricted shares. In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material.

 

The interests of shareholders may be hurt because we can issue shares of our common stock to individuals or entities that support existing management with such issuances serving to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of our Company.

 

Messrs. McBride and Holley will own a significant majority of outstanding shares after the completion of the offering. In addition, our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued common shares. Such issuances may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management and the interests of existing management which may not be the same as the interests of other shareholders. Although transactions, other than those described in this prospectus, are not currently being contemplated or discussed, our ability to issue shares without shareholder approval serves to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of our Company or participate in other transactions, including entering into possible business combinations, without the support of other shareholders.

 

Our two principal officers control all corporate activities and can approve all transactions, including mergers, without the approval of other shareholders.

 

Messrs. McBride and Holley have a sufficient number of shares to control all corporate activities and can approve transactions, including possible mergers, issuance of shares and r compensation levels, without the approval of other shareholders. Their decisions may not be in the best interests of other shareholders.

 

21
 

 

Our articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability that may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation at Article XI provide for indemnification as follows: "No director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer: (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law; or (ii) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Any repeal or modification of an Article by the stockholders of the Corporation shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation of the personal liability of a director or officer of the Corporation for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification."

 

We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with our activities, we will (unless in the opinion of our counsel, the matter has been settled by controlling precedent) submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question whether indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The legal process relating to this matter if it were to occur is likely to be very costly and may result in us receiving negative publicity, either of which factors is likely to materially reduce the market and price for our shares, if such a market ever develops.

 

Currently, there is no established public market for our securities, and there can be no assurances that any established public market will ever develop or that our common stock will be quoted for trading and, even if quoted, it is likely to be subject to significant price fluctuations.

 

We have been granted a trading symbol (DRHC). However, there is and there has never been an established trading market for our common stock..

 

Because of the anticipated low price of the securities being registered, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in these securities. Purchasers of our securities should be aware that any market that develops in our stock will be subject to the penny stock restrictions.

 

Any market that develops in shares of our common stock will be subject to the penny stock regulations and restrictions pertaining to low priced stocks that will create a lack of liquidity and make trading difficult or impossible.

 

Our shares will be considered a “penny stock.”  Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us. This classification will severely and adversely affects any market liquidity for our common stock.

 

The market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses that could adversely impact investors in our stock.

 

Company management believes that the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

 

·Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
·Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
·"Boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by sales persons;
·Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

 

22
 

 

·Wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

 

Our board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stockholders and with the ability to affect adversely stockholder voting power and perpetuate their control over us.

 

Our articles of incorporation allow us to issue shares of preferred stock without any vote or further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval, including large blocks of preferred stock. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock.

 

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock at any time in the foreseeable future. The future payment of dividends directly depends upon our future earnings, capital requirements, financial requirements and other factors that our board of directors will consider. Since we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock, return on your investment, if any, will depend solely on an increase, if any, in the market value of our common stock.

 

Because we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, our stockholders have limited protection against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and American Stock Exchanges and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities that are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than legally required, we have not yet adopted these measures.

 

Because none of our directors are independent directors, we do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, these directors have the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.

 

We intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.

You may have limited access to information regarding our business because our obligations to file periodic reports with the SEC could be automatically suspended under certain circumstances.

 

After the one-year period following the date on which our registration statement became effective (August 18, 2011), the public reporting obligations may (in our discretion) be automatically suspended under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act if we have less than 300 shareholders and do not file a registration statement on Form 8A (which we have no current plans to file). If this occurs after the year in which our registration statement becomes effective, we will no longer be obligated to file periodic reports with the SEC and your access to our business information would then be even more restricted. After this registration statement on Form S-1 becomes effective, we will be required to deliver periodic reports to security holders. However, we will not be required to furnish proxy statements to security holders and our directors, officers and principal beneficial owners will not be required to report their beneficial ownership of securities to the SEC pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act until we have both 500 or more security holders and greater than $10 million in assets. This means that your access to information regarding our business will be limited.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

In August 2012, the Company raised $12,000 for 120,000 restricted shares of common stock, and $100,000 for 670,000 restricted shares of common stock. The stock certificate for these shares was issued in November 2012.

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with an unaffiliated party (the “Third Party”) under which the Company received a one-year loan with a principal balance of $100,000. The loan bears interest at 20% per annum with interest payments due quarterly. In addition, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to the lender and Messrs. Holley and McBride pledged their 56,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as collateral. If the Company goes into default of the provisions of the loan, it becomes convertible into the Company’s common stock at a price of $.001 per share (or up to 100 million shares). If a default occurs, the lender will have the ability of becoming the controlling shareholder of the Company. The Company recorded an expense of $325,000 in connection with the issuance of the 2,500,000 shares.

 

On June 20, 2013, the Company and the Third party entered into an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”) which amended certain terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended Note, the Company’s repayment of the principal balance of the Amended Note is secured by all the assets of the Company. In addition, the provisions of the Note whereby Mssrs. Holley and McBride pledged 56,250,000 of their shares of common stock of the Company were removed.

 

At any time after the date of issuance and until the Amended Note is no longer outstanding, the Amended Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part into shares of the Company’s common stock (each a “Conversion Share”) at the rate of $0.001 per share for a maximum of 100 Million shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustments), at any time and at the option of the Holder.

 

The Amended Note will be Senior to all notes, debentures and any loan entered into by the Company for the term of the Amended Note until the Amended Note is repaid in full.

 

The Company may, only with the prior consent of the Holder, pre-pay the Amended Note within 180 days by paying 115% of the Principal due plus all accrued interest. From day 181 to 365 the Amended Note can be pre-paid by paying 100% of the Amended Note plus all accrued interest.

 

With respect to the issuance of the Amended Note, the Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of the securities referenced herein pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering.

 

All proceeds were used for working capital purposes.
