ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

On November 12, 2012, the Company, then under the name Bold Energy, Inc., entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Anio Limited, a limited liability company established under the laws of the United Kingdom, which conducts its primary line of business under the name Lot78, Inc. (“Lot78”), the shareholders of Lot78 (the “Lot78 Shareholders”), and the controlling stockholders of the Company (the “Bold Controlling Stockholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 11,510 (100%) shares of common stock of Lot78 from the Lot78 Shareholders (the “Lot78 Shares”) and in exchange issued 30,954,388 (54.26%) restricted shares of its common stock to the Lot78 Shareholders (the “Bold Shares”). As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, Lot78 became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company now carries on the business of Lot78 as its primary business. The Share Exchange Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to closing. The closing of the Share Exchange Agreement (the “Closing”) occurred on February 4, 2013 (the “Closing Date”).

 

As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement:

 

(a) each outstanding Lot78 Share was cancelled, extinguished and converted into and became the right to receive a pro rata portion of the Bold Shares which equaled the number of Lot78 Shares held by each Lot78 Shareholder multiplied by the exchange ratio of 2,689.34731518 (the “Exchange Ratio”), rounded, if necessary, up to the nearest whole share. Based on the Exchange Ratio, as a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Lot78 Shareholders own a total of 30,954,388 restricted shares of common stock of the Company.

 

(b) Eden Clark and Patrick DeBlois irrevocably cancelled a total of 30,954,388 restricted shares of common stock of the Company.

 

As of the date of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Bold Controlling Stockholders included only the following two (2) individuals: (i) Eden Clark, the then current President, CEO, CFO, Treasurer, and Director of the Company and holder of 15,954,388 shares of the Company (27.964% of the then issued and outstanding shares); and (ii) Patrick DeBlois, the then current Secretary of the Company and holder of 15,000,000 shares of the Company (26.291% of the then issued and outstanding shares). The Share Exchange Agreement was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Company’s shareholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. Under Nevada corporation law, the consent of the Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the voting power is effective director and shareholder approval necessary to consummate the Share Exchange Agreement. In accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, an Information Statement on Schedule 14F-1 pertaining to the Share Exchange Agreement was mailed to our shareholders on January 24, 2013. The Schedule 14F-1 provided that the Share Exchange Agreement would not become effective until at least ten (10) days following the filing of the Information Statement with the SEC and the mailing of the Information Statement to the Company’s shareholders of record. The Share Exchange Agreement subsequently closed on February 4, 2013.

 

The foregoing summary description of the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement may not contain all information that is of interest to the reader. For further information regarding specific terms and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement, this reference is made to such agreement, which was filed with the SEC on February 4, 2013 as Exhibit 2.01 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Report on Form 8-K/A related to the aforementioned Share Exchange Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, (i) our principal business became the business of Lot78 and (ii) Lot78 became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As the Lot78 Shareholders obtained the majority of the outstanding shares of the Company through the acquisition, the acquisition is accounted for as a reverse merger or recapitalization of the Company. As such, Lot78 is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes.

 

As of the date of the Share Exchange Agreement, there were no material relationships between the Company and Lot78 or between the Company and any of Lot78’s respective affiliates, directors, or officers, or associates thereof, other than in respect of the Share Exchange Agreement.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered SALES of Equity Securities.

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Report on Form 8-K/A related to the aforementioned Share Exchange Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

 

On February 4, 2013, prior to the Closing Date of the Share Exchange Agreement referred to in Item 1.01 above, and as a condition to the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 30,954,388 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to the Lot78 Shareholders. The shares issued to the Lot78 Shareholders were issued pursuant to Rule 903 of Regulation S, as more specifically set forth below, on the basis that the investor was not a “U.S. person” as defined in Regulation S and was not acquiring the shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. person.   The shares contained a restrictive legend on the share certificate stating that the securities have not been registered under the Act and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale of the securities.

 

Exemption From Registration. The shares of common stock referenced herein were issued in reliance upon the following exemption:

 

The shares of common stock referenced herein were issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S of the Act on the basis that: (i) the offer of the shares was completed in an "offshore transaction", as defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S; (ii) we did not engage in any directed selling efforts, as defined in Regulation S, in the United States in connection with the offer of the shares; (iii) each Investor represented to us that the Investor was not a "U.S. person", as defined in Regulation S, and was not acquiring the shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. person; and (iv) each Investor acknowledged that the securities had not been registered pursuant to the Act and that the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States unless the securities are registered under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from the Act. Each Investor agreed: (i) to resell the securities only in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to registration under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act; (ii) that we are required to refuse to register any sale of the securities purchased unless the transfer is in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to registration under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act; and (iii) not to engage in hedging transactions with regards to the securities purchased unless in compliance with the Act. All certificates representing the shares were endorsed with a restrictive legend confirming that the securities could not be resold without registration under the Act or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Act.

 

ITEM 5.01 CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Report on Form 8-K/A related to the aforementioned Share Exchange Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Lot78 Shareholders owned a total of 30,954,388 restricted shares of the Company, which represented 54.26% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Share Exchange Agreement is being accounted for as a "reverse acquisition," as the Lot78 Shareholders own a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock immediately following the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement. Accordingly, Lot78 is deemed to be the acquirer in the reverse acquisition. After the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Board of Directors and management of the Company are comprised of Lot78’s management team and the operations of Lot78 are the continuing operations of the Company.

 

ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN DIRECTORS

 

On February 4, 2013, prior to the Closing Date of the Share Exchange Agreement referred to in Item 1.01 above and as a condition to the Closing, Eden Clark resigned as the President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

On February 4, 2013, prior to the Closing Date of the Share Exchange Agreement and as a condition to the Closing, the appointment of Oliver Amhurst as the President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company became effective.

 

The biography for Mr. Amhurst is set forth below:

 

OLIVER AMHURST. Mr. Amhurst has been in the fashion business for over 15 years and has spent the past six years building the Lot78 brand into a full ready-to-wear collection. Mr. Amhurst has been a full-time employee of Lot78 for the past five years. Mr. Amhurst started his career in the stock room at the Emporio Armani store in London, but rose through ranks of the company to end up running the wholesale division of all Armani products in the UK. He has extensive contacts with some of the world’s leading buyers in the fashion industry, who have all supported him throughout the growth of the Lot78 brand. Mr. Amhurst has not been a director for any other company during the past five years. Mr. Amhurst was appointed as sole officer and director of the Company due to his years of experience in the fashion industry and his success in building the Lot78 brand, as well as his unique sense of style in contemporary fashion inspired by his London-based roots.

 

ITEM 5.03 AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR

 

On January 31, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada.  As a result of the Amendment, the Company has changed its name with the State of Nevada from Bold Energy, Inc. to Lot78, Inc. A copy of the Amendment was filed with the SEC on February 4, 2013 as Exhibit 3.01 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Following the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company intends to change its July 31 fiscal year end to September 30.

 

ITEM 5.06 CHANGE IN SHELL COMPANY STATUS

 

As a result of closing the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company is no longer a shell corporation as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

 

FORM 10 DISCLOSURE

 

As disclosed elsewhere in this Report, we completed a Share Exchange Agreement with Lot78. Item 2.01(f) and 5.01(a)(8) of Form 8-K states that if the registrant was a shell company, immediately before the acquisition transaction, then the registrant must disclose the information that would be required if the registrant were filing a general form for registration of securities on Form 10 under the Exchange Act.

 

Accordingly, we are providing below the information that would be included in a Form 10 if we were to file a Form 10. Please note that the information provided below relates to the combined enterprises of the Company and Lot78 after the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, except that information relating to periods prior to the date of the Share Exchange Agreement relate to Lot78 unless otherwise specifically indicated.

 

ITEM 1 BUSINESS

 

General

 

Anio Limited (referred to hereinafter as “Lot78”) is a limited liability company established under the laws of the United Kingdom in 2008, which conducts its primary line of business under the name Lot78, Inc. Lot78’s fiscal year end is September 30. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement with the Company described above under Item 1.01 of this Report, Lot78 became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company now carries on the business of Lot78 as its primary business. Following the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company intends to change its July 31 fiscal year end to September 30.

 

Lot78 designs, markets, distributes, and sells apparel under the brand name "Lot78" to fashion-conscious consumers on four continents, including North America, Europe, Asia, and South America. We seek to be a trend setting leader in the design, marketing, distribution and sale of luxury street apparel. Our current collection is a full men’s and women’s contemporary ready-to-wear line which includes leather jackets, t-shirts, sweats, knitwear, accessories, jeans, chinos, home ware, and wool coats. We operate in three distinct but integrated segments: Wholesale, Consumer Direct and Core Services. Our Wholesale segment sells our products to industry-leading high-end global department stores, specialty retailers and boutiques; our Consumer Direct segment consists of e-commerce sales through our branded website located at www.lot78.com; and our Core Services segment provides product design, distribution, marketing and other overhead resources to the other segments.

 

Since our inception in 2008, we have developed a recognizable brand, expanded our product offerings, and initiated a growth strategy to expand both our Wholesale and Consumer Direct segment sales. A close and influential network of global contract manufacturers have greatly aided the expansion of the Lot78 collection, which started with four men’s leather jackets and developed to become a full men’s and women’s ready-to-wear fashion and apparel line. We utilize contract manufacturers located in Portugal, Bhutan, and Italy for the manufacture of our products. The majority of our production is based in the Venetian region of Italy, whose legacy befits our aesthetic heritage and focus on luxurious quality and innovative style. All garments are sourced, designed and manufactured by people with unique strengths, skills, and craftsmanship to create premium quality and reliable products that are in high demand with our targeted affluent demographics. We seek to continue to build our brand recognition that is characterized by unique style, timelessness, utility, and quality, as opposed to merely following prevailing fads or trends that do not have the same degree of potential growth or longevity over time.

 

Our Brand and Products

 

Since 2008, the Lot78 brand has developed an androgynous, contemporary image, which can aptly be described as “refined grunge”: a marriage of luxury and urbanity. We believe that the strength of the Lot78 brand name and image is derived from our emphasis on combining the brand’s London-based roots with its Italian-inspired construction. Our dedication to quality, utilization of Italian production and craftsmanship processes, and mastery of London-based urban and street-wear cultural imagery have combined to infuse our fashion and apparel collection with a unique and avant-guard take on contemporary fashion. We seek to be an innovator in premium lifestyle branding. Our fashion perspective is significantly influenced by our Founder, Mr. Oliver Amhurst, who is an influential figure in the fashion industry and has been at the forefront of style for more than a decade.

 

We currently offer a full collection of men’s and women’s ready-to-wear garments that we design, market, distribute and sell under the Lot78 brand. Our current men’s and women’s products include leather jackets, t-shirts, sweats, knitwear, accessories, jeans, chinos, home ware, and wool coats. Lot78 products often sell in the range of £55 to £900 (approximately $87 to $1,417 USD) per item at retail and occasionally we offer specialty items at higher prices. Our products are sold globally through upscale retailers, boutiques and specialty stores, our branded website located at www.lot78.com, and additional web retailers, such as Net-A-Porter.com. We intend to continually diversify our product offerings and designs as part of our seasonal collections. We introduce new collections twice a year during the spring/summer and autumn/winter seasons.

 

Wholesale Segment

 

Our Wholesale segment sells our products to leading high-end global department stores, specialty retailers and boutiques that have the image and merchandising capability that we demand for the effective presentation of our products. Our products are stocked in Barneys, Harrod’s, Bloomingdales and Net-A-Porter, and in various specialty and boutique stores throughout the world. We have not entered into any contracts with any of these retailers. Sales are made when these retailers visit Lot78 each season to view our collection and place their orders. The orders are then sent to the manufacturer. Our Wholesale segment accounted for approximately 80% of our total gross sales in 2011. Two of our five employees work in the Wholesale Segment.

 

Consumer Direct Segment

 

Our Consumer Direct segment sells our products from our e-commerce site, www.lot78.com, and previously through our London store, 125 Ledbury Road, which closed on March 31, 2012. We accept and fill all customer orders received through our website internally. We plan to grow our Consumer Direct segment sales by opening four Lot78 branded retail stores by 2015 in London, New York, Los Angeles and Hong Kong. Our Consumer Direct segment accounted for approximately 20% of our gross sales in 2011. Two of our five employees work in the Consumer Direct Segment.

 

Core Services Segment

 

The Core Services segment provides product design, distribution, marketing, e-commerce and other overhead resources to the Wholesale and Consumer Direct segments. Four of our five employees work in the Core Services Segment.

 

Design and Product Development

 

Three of our five employees are part of our design team, which is led by Mr. Amhurst. Our design team is responsible for the design and development of our products. We do not currently have a formal research and development effort but our design team plans to continue to develop new merchandise styles for each seasonal collection. The development of our products from concept through manufacturing is engineered to be not only fashionable but durable as well.

 

Manufacturing

 

We outsource all of our manufacturing to third parties on an order-by-order basis. Currently, we have contract manufacturers in Italy, Portugal, and Bhutan. These contractors sew and finish Lot78 products to exacting design specifications. We believe we can meet our current production needs using these and other available contract manufacturers. Our Management oversees the manufacturing and quality control of our products by visiting the manufacturer factories or by having representatives from the manufacturers visit Lot78. Our Management also researches and develops new sources of supply for the materials used in the manufacturing of our products.

 

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

 

The fabrics used in our products are sourced from fabric manufacturers located in Italy, Portugal and Bhutan. Although we do not currently have any long-term agreements in place for the supply of our fabrics, threads or other components, such high quality fabrics are currently readily available from a number of suppliers, including mills located both in the United States and abroad.

 

Quality Control

 

Our quality control program ensures that products meet our high quality standards. A consultant to Lot78, who lives in Italy, monitors the quality of the fabrics used by our contract manufacturers prior to the production of garments and inspects prototypes of each product before production commences. Final random inspections of our products occur when our products are received in our distribution center. We believe that our quality control policy is integral in maintaining the quality, consistency and reputation of our products.

 

Distribution

 

Our distribution channels are showrooms we sign up in relevant territories such as the Archetype in New York, which represents our brand in North America. We intend to expand globally through new and established distribution channels including wholesale, retail, e-commerce, concessions, and franchise and licensing agreements to further expand global brand exposure and new opportunities to increase sales revenue.

 

Marketing

 

We market our products to domestic and international wholesale customers by participating in industry trade shows around the world and by displaying our collections in various showrooms. Wholesale customers can be found in four continents and include specialty stores, major department stores, and off-price retailers. Our products are sold in the United States and in several other countries in leading, high-end premium stores, including Barneys, Harrod’s, and Bloomingdales, and in various boutique and specialty stores. We also sell our products through our branded website, www.lot78.com, and additional web retailers, such as Net-A-Porter.com.

 

Our marketing and public relations strategy is designed to communicate the signature design aesthetic and lifestyle of our brand. Our unique, "refined grunge" style was created by our founder Mr. Oliver Amhurst. Our marketing is done in house by Mr. Amhurst and another employee of Lot78. Mr. Amhurst oversees every aspect of our marketing, which allows us to set the tone for integrity, consistency and direction of the Lot78 brand image worldwide. We intend to hire a full-time employee in the spring of 2013 to oversee our marketing.

 

Our marketing consists of a variety of channels including: national and international print advertising, strategic outdoor advertising, in-store advertising, digital advertising, guerilla marketing, involvement in the art community, social media and philanthropic acts. We are also actively involved in publications and blogs with global exposure in the world’s most reputable fashion publications, such as Vogue, Tatler and Nottingchic.com, due to our key relationships with influential writers, bloggers and fashion figures. This mix of media and channels is designed to support the brand's growth across diverse consumer groups and markets. In addition, the brand strategically cultivates and enjoys a strong and loyal celebrity following. These unpaid celebrity endorsements have been, and continue to be, highly effective in expanding our brand awareness and affinity.

 

Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers

 

We are highly dependent upon one or a few major customers. During the year ended September 30, 2012, Net-a-Porter represented 43% of our gross sales. During the year ended September 30, 2011, Net-a-Porter accounted for 30% of our gross sales. We have not entered into any specific long-term agreements with Net-a-Porter for the sale of our products. Net-a-Porter, as well as several of our other customers, purchase our products by submitting a Purchase Order to us. Upon delivery of our products, we provide an Order Confirmation to the customer, along with our general Supply Terms & Conditions. A copy of our general Supply Terms & Conditions is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.01 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Our Wholesale segment sells our products to various global department stores, specialty retailers and boutiques including Barneys, Harrod’s, Bloomingdales, and Net-A-Porter. In total, we now have 20 stores that make up our Wholesale business.

 

Our Consumer Direct segment sells our products from our branded website, www.lot78.com. Customers of our website include the general public from around the world.

 

Business Strategy

 

Over the next five years, our growth strategy will focus on the following five key areas:

 

  Increase Global Wholesale Sales

 

We aim to expand our Wholesale segment by employing three key showrooms at global trade shows that we participate in, with the intention of further penetrating the Asian, European and American markets. The trade show circuit operates in conjunction with the global fashion weeks (Milan, Paris, London and New York). We believe that increased involvement in trade shows will enable us to further expose the Lot78 brand, explore a larger sales field and develop new relationships with retailers, which will potentially lead to increased revenues and greater brand awareness.

 

Furthermore, we intend to hold our first Lot78 runway show in 2014 in London, which will allow influential fashion bloggers, writers and buyers to experience the brand and its unique image in person. We believe that holding a Lot78 runway show has the potential to provide exposure of Lot78 to the press, create brand awareness to a new consumer base and stimulate a new network of wholesale opportunity.

 

  Invest in Online Development and E-commerce Activity

 

We currently offer a globally accessible transactional website, www.lot78.com, which allows anyone with Internet access to purchase our products online. We are currently working with a website developer to make key operational advances to our website such as development of user-friendly operations and layout improvements. Further, we intend to present a greater number of products on our website and expand into further marketing techniques such as affiliate marketing and advertisement opportunities.

 

  Establish Stores and Seek Franchise Partnership Opportunities

 

We plan to launch the first branded Lot78 retail store in 2014 in London to engage a new consumer base. We feel that the introduction of our own stores will allow for stronger brand positioning and increased exposure. We intend to open three additional branded retail stores in New York, Los Angeles and Hong Kong in 2015 to expose the brand to the impressive buying opportunity of the American and Asian markets.

 

We will also seek joint licensing agreements with key global partners through expansion into new categories such as fragrances, footwear and accessories, with a focus on retaining the key elements of the brand’s identity.

 

  Diversify and Expand our Product Portfolio

 

We will continue to expand and strengthen our current product portfolio while exploring opportunities to diversify into new product categories within a ready-to-wear line. We believe that diversification engages new consumer interest and enables the brand to benefit from a proactive and developing brand image while stimulating revenue from increased buyer interest and awareness of the brand. Furthermore, we anticipate that expansion of our collection will enable wholesale activity to flourish as well as increased online sales.

 

  Expand our Team

 

Our team currently includes five employees with varied skills and backgrounds who engage in overlapping roles and responsibilities for different segments of our business. In the next five years, we aim to increase the number of direct in-house employees to nine people. Further, we intend to allocate a specific area(s) of our business strategy to a specific employee or employees and will focus on developing that employee’s skills in that area of responsibility. Such areas of responsibility will include sales, website and social media, design and production, marketing, public relations, administration, finance and product development. The expansion of our team will allow for focused development of all areas of our business.

 

Seasonality of Business

 

90% of our business works on a seasonal basis. We achieve our highest sales twice a year from our Autumn/Winter collection, which we receive monies from in July and August, and our Spring/Summer collection, which we receive monies from in January and February. The remaining 10% of our sales are non-seasonal and come in weekly from our e-commerce website, which presently is a very small part of our business.

 

Research and Development Activities

 

During the past two years, approximately £100,000 ($151,080 USD) has been spent on research and development. Our research and development activities focused on several different aspects of the business such as salaries to our designer and consultant in Italy, business trips to our manufacturers, attending fabric fairs, marketing, etc.

 

Trademarks

 

The “Lot78” brand is trademarked worldwide. Generally, our trademarks remain valid and enforceable so long as we continue to use the marks in commerce and the required registration renewals are filed. We consider our trademarks to be valuable assets in the marketing of our products and seek to protect them from infringement worldwide.

 

Government Regulation on the Business

 

Our business operations are subject to several international and domestic laws including labor and employment laws, laws governing advertising and promotions, privacy laws, safety regulations, import/export restrictions, consumer protection regulations that govern product standards and labeling, and several other regulations. We believe that we are currently in material compliance with all such applicable laws.

 

All of our products are manufactured outside of the United Kingdom. These products are imported and are subject to customs laws, which impose tariffs as well as import quota restrictions for apparel. While importation of goods from foreign countries from which we buy our products may be subject to embargo if shipments exceed quota limits, we currently are not restricted by quotas in the operation of our business. In addition, custom duties and tariffs do not comprise a material portion of the cost of our products.

 

Our e-commerce website and online content are subject to government regulation of the Internet in many areas, including user privacy, telecommunications, data protection, and commerce. The application of these laws and regulations to our business is often unclear and sometimes may conflict. It may take years to determine whether and how existing laws such as those governing intellectual property, privacy, advertising, etc. apply to the Internet.  Nonetheless, laws and regulations directly applicable to Internet communications, commerce and advertising are becoming more prevalent. Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that laws and regulations may be adopted covering issues such as user privacy, content, quality of products and much more.  Further, the growth and development of the market for e-commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws, which may impose additional burdens on companies conducting business online.  Compliance with these regulations may involve significant costs or require changes in business practices that result in reduced revenue. Noncompliance could result in penalties being imposed on us or orders that we stop the alleged noncompliant activity.  We believe that we are currently in material compliance with all such applicable laws.

 

We are also subject to environmental laws and regulations, including restrictions on the use of certain materials in our products. We have not and do not expect to incur any significant expenses to comply with any regulations governing the discharge of hazardous materials or other environment protection measures.

 

Competition

 

The retail apparel industry is highly competitive. We compete with numerous designers and manufacturers of apparel and accessories, domestic and international, including Rag & Bone, Alexander Wang, and Acne Jeans. Some of our competitors may be significantly larger, have substantially greater resources and may be able to adapt to changes in consumer preferences or retail requirements more quickly, devote greater resources to the building and sustaining of their brand identity and the marketing and sale of their products, or adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we can. As a result, we may not be able to compete as effectively and may not be able to maintain or grow the demand for our brand.

 

Our competitive strength will depend on our ability to:

 

anticipate and respond to changing consumer demands in a timely manner;

maintain and increase favorable brand recognition;

develop and produce high quality products that appeal to consumers;

appropriately price our products;

• maintain the high quality of our products;

ensure product availability;

• expand our product portfolio;

• add members to our team who possess the skills, know-how and desire to help us succeed;

• maintain an active role in the fashion industry;

• effectively market our products and brand name;

effectively present our products at retail; and

• maintain and build relationships with key industry leaders.

 

Although we operate in a highly competitive market, we seek to distinguish Lot78 products by emphasizing superior quality, durability and craftsmanship. We believe that we have a competitive advantage in comparison to our competitors in the quality of our fabrics and craftsmanship, the unique style of Lot78, the superiority of our fits, and our price points.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

 

RISKS RELATING TO OUR INDUSTRY

 

Our business may be negatively impacted by general economic conditions and the current global financial crisis.

 

Our performance is subject to worldwide economic conditions and their impact on levels of consumer spending that affect not only the consumer, but also retailers, our largest customers. The United States and global economies have suffered from a prolonged recession for the past several years and as a result, consumer spending has deteriorated significantly from pre-recession levels and may remain depressed, or be subject to further deterioration, for the foreseeable future. The worldwide apparel industry is heavily influenced by general economic cycles. Purchases of high-fashion apparel and accessories tend to decline in periods of recession or uncertainty regarding future economic prospects, as disposable income declines. During periods of recession or economic uncertainty, we may not be able to maintain or increase our sales to existing customers, make sales to new customers, open and operate retail stores, maintain sales levels from our online website, or maintain or increase our international operations. As a result, our operating results may be adversely and materially affected by continued downward trends or uncertainty in the United States and across the globe.

 

Our continued operations depend on current fashion trends. If our designs and products do not continue to be fashionable, our business could be adversely affected.

 

Our success depends in large part on our ability to develop, market and deliver innovative and stylish products that are consistent with and build on our brand image at a pace and intensity competitive with others in the apparel industry. The innovation of our Lot78 brand is critical to our success and competitive position. The apparel industry is subject to rapidly evolving fashion trends and shifting consumer demands. If we are unable to continue to develop and offer unique products to our customers, our sales will decline. We cannot be certain that high-fashion apparel will continue to be in demand. Should the trend steer away from high-fashion, our sales could significantly decrease and our business could be adversely affected. In addition, our future designs and plans to expand our product offerings may not be successful, and any unsuccessful designs or product offerings could adversely affect our business.

 

Our business and the success of our products could be harmed if we are unable to maintain our brand image.

 

Our sales to date have been due in large part to our brand image. If we are unable to timely and appropriately respond to changing consumer demand, our brand name and brand image may be impaired. Even if we react appropriately to changes in consumer preferences, consumers may consider our brand image to be outdated or associate our brand with styles that are no longer popular. In the past, many apparel companies have experienced periods of rapid growth in sales and earnings followed by periods of declining sales and losses. Our business may be similarly affected in the future.

 

We face intense competition, including competition from companies with significantly greater resources than ours, and if we are unable to compete effectively with these companies, our market share may decline and our business could be harmed.

 

We face intense competition in the apparel industry from other established companies. A number of our competitors may have significantly greater financial, technological, manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution resources than we do. Their greater capabilities in these areas may enable them to better withstand periodic downturns in the apparel industry, compete more effectively on the basis of price and production, and more quickly develop new products. In addition, there are low barriers of entry into this industry and new companies may enter the markets in which we compete, further increasing competition in the industry. We believe that our ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors, including the style, quality and price of our products and the strength of our brand name, as well as many factors beyond our control. We may not be able to compete successfully in the future, and increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins, loss of market share and an inability to generate cash flows that are sufficient to expand our development and marketing of new products, which would adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.

 

The worldwide apparel industry is subject to ongoing pricing pressures.

 

The high fashion apparel industry is subject to significant pricing pressures caused by many factors, including intense competition, consolidation in the retail industry, pressure from retailers to reduce the costs of products and changes in consumer spending patterns. These factors may cause us to reduce our sales prices for sales of products to retailers and directly to consumers which could cause our gross margins to decline. If our sale prices decline and we are unable to offset such price reductions with comparable reductions in our operating costs, our future operating results could be adversely affected.

 

Our ability to conduct business in international markets may be affected by legal, regulatory, political and economic risks.

 

We conduct business on four continents, accordingly, we face a number of risks inherent in doing business in international markets as well as legal, regulatory, political and economic factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among other things:

 

  political instability or acts of terrorism, which disrupt trade with the countries in which our manufacturers, suppliers or customers are located;

 

  difficulties in managing our foreign operations;

 

  local business practices that do not conform to legal or ethical guidelines;

 

  adoption of additional or revised quotas, restrictions or regulations relating to imports or exports;

 

  additional or increased customs duties, tariffs, taxes and other charges on imports or exports;

 

  significant fluctuations in the value of the Great Britain pound against foreign currencies;

 

  increased difficulty in protecting our intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions;

 

  social, legal or economic instability in the foreign markets in which we do business, which could influence our ability to sell our products in these international markets;

 

  restrictions on the transfer of funds between the United Kingdom and foreign jurisdictions; and

 

  our ability to locate and open desirable retail locations.

 

Increases in the price of raw materials or their reduced availability could increase our cost of goods.

 

The principal fabrics used in our business are cotton, blends, synthetics and wools. The prices we pay our manufacturers, who source our suppliers, are dependent in part on the market price for raw materials—primarily cotton—used to produce them. The price and availability of cotton may fluctuate substantially, depending on a variety of factors, including demand, crop yields, weather, supply conditions, transportation costs, work stoppages, government regulations, economic climates and other unpredictable factors. Cotton prices worldwide have increased significantly in the past year, and the outlook for future prices is uncertain. Increases in raw material costs or decreases or unavailability in supply of raw materials, together with other factors, could result in a decrease of our sales unless we are able to pass higher prices on to our customers.


RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

 

We have not been profitable in our operations and may never achieve profitability required to sustain our operations.

 

For the year ended September 30, 2012, our net sales were $560,368, however, after deducting the cost of goods sold of $349,791, operating losses of $329,164, interest and finance charges of $6,908, and foreign currency translation adjustments of $40,727, our comprehensive loss is $166,222. In the foreseeable future, we expect to continue to incur significant operating losses and to not be profitable. No assurance can be given that we can ever achieve profitability. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have an adverse impact on us.

 

Our current cash holdings are insufficient to meet our cash requirements. Accordingly, we will need to raise additional capital to continue our business and if we are unable to do so, we will be forced to delay, reduce or cease our operations.

 

Our current cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements. At September 30, 2012, we had $0 in cash, accordingly, we will need to seek additional capital to sustain our business operations. We are in the process of seeking equity financing to fund our operations over the next 12 months. We cannot be certain that additional capital will be available when needed or that our actual cash requirements will not be greater than anticipated. Financing opportunities may not be available to us, or if available, may not be available on favorable terms. The availability of financing opportunities will depend on various factors, such as market conditions and our financial condition and outlook. In addition, if we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders could be significantly diluted, and these newly-issued securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. If we obtain additional debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness, and the terms of the debt securities issued could impose significant restrictions on our operations.  If we are unable to obtain financing on terms favorable to us, or at all, we will be unable to continue operations.

 

Our current liabilities exceed our current assets by a substantial amount. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing to repay these liabilities and we may be forced to cease all operations.

 

As of the year ended September 30, 2012, our current liabilities are $1,314,957 and our current assets are $222,164, resulting in a net capital deficiency of $1,092,793. Our current liabilities include $236,249 in accounts payable, $805,792 in accrued expenses and other payables, $83,025 in taxes and social security and $189,891 in short term debt. We expect to continue to incur significant liabilities in the operation of our business. We require additional funds in order for us to sustain our current operations and to repay these liabilities. However, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing to continue our operations or to reduce our operating expenses enough to meet our existing obligations. As a result, we could be required to cease all operations, liquidate our assets, seek bankruptcy protection or other alternatives.

 

We have a “going concern” opinion from our auditors, indicating the possibility that we may not be able to continue to operate.

 

Our independent registered public accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. For the year ended September 30, 2012, our comprehensive loss from operations was $166,222 and we have a significant net capital deficiency of $1,092,793. The “going concern” opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds by issuing new debt or equity securities or otherwise. If we fail to raise sufficient capital, our ability to continue our operations will be significantly impaired. As a result we may have to liquidate our business and investors may lose their investments. Investors should consider our independent registered public accountant’s comments when deciding whether to invest in the Company.

 

Our recent sales have declined as a result of a variety of factors, which may result in volatility of our stock price.

 

Our quarterly sales and operating results have varied significantly in the past and can be expected to fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. For example, we earned revenues of $560,368 for the year ended September 30, 2012, compared to revenues of $703,276 for the year ended September 30, 2011. This decrease in revenues can be attributed to two factors: (1) Our wholesale orders from a major store in the U.S. were cut from twelve stores to one store for the Autumn/Winter 2012 season, due to production issues in the Spring/Summer 2012 line. They have since increased the number of stores to seven for the Autumn/Winter 2013 season. (2) Our consumer direct sales decreased due to the closure of our retail store, 125 Ledbury Road. Furthermore, we experience fluctuations in our sales due to the seasonal nature of our business. As a result of these specific and other general factors, our operating results will likely continue to vary from quarter to quarter and the results for any particular quarter may not be necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Any shortfall in sales from levels expected by securities analysts and investors could cause a decrease in the trading price of our common stock.

 

We depend on a few major customers for our product revenue, accordingly, the loss of one or more of them could cause a significant decrease in our revenue.

 

To date, a significant portion of our revenue has resulted from sales to a limited number of customers. During the year ended September 30, 2012, sales to Net-a-Porter represented 43% of our gross sales. During the year ended September 30, 2011, sales to Net-a-Porter accounted for 30% of our gross sales. In the near future, we expect to continue to depend upon a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenue.  The loss of a major customer or the reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from one or more of our major customers could cause our revenue to decline and our losses to increase.  For example, our sales significantly decreased from September 30, 2011 to September 30, 2012 because our wholesale orders from a major store in the U.S. were cut from twelve stores to one store for the Autumn/Winter 2012 season and our consumer direct sales decreased due to the closure of our retail store, 125 Ledbury Road., Because we currently depend on a limited number of customers, our revenue from quarter to quarter or year to year may be volatile.  Adverse changes in our revenue or operating results as a result of changes in the number of or volume of sales to major customers could substantially reduce the trading price of our common stock.

 

If we are able to increase our business operations, we may not be able to effectively manage future growth, which may have a material adverse effect on our future operating results.

 

We anticipate that our future growth, if any, will depend upon various factors, including the strength of our brand image, the market success of our current and future products, the success of our growth strategies, competitive conditions and our ability to manage our future growth. Future growth may place a significant strain on our management and operations. Further, our operational, administrative, financial and legal procedures and controls would need to be expanded. As a result, we may need to train and manage an increasing number of employees, which could distract our management team from our business. Our future success will depend substantially on the ability of our management team to manage growth. If we are unable to anticipate or manage our future growth effectively, our future operating results could be adversely affected.

 

We may be unsuccessful in implementing our planned international expansion, which could impair the value of our brand, harm our business and negatively affect our results of operations.

 

Our growth strategy is dependent in part on our ability to open and operate branded retail stores. By 2015, we plan to open approximately four branded retail stores in various international markets. As we expand, we may incur significant costs relating to starting up, maintaining and expanding foreign operations. Costs may include, but are not limited to, obtaining prime locations for stores, setting up foreign offices and hiring personnel. We may be unable to open and operate stores successfully and our growth may be limited, unless we are able to:

 

identify desirable markets and sites for store locations;

negotiate acceptable lease terms;

efficiently build and equip stores;

hire, train and retain competent store personnel;

manage inventory effectively to meet the needs of the stores on a timely basis;

successfully integrate stores into our existing operations;

manage foreign currency risk effectively;

satisfy the fashion preferences of customers in new geographic areas; and

achieve acceptable operating margins from the stores.

 

We cannot be sure that we can successfully open stores or that our stores will be profitable. Additionally, our expansion may place increased demands on our operational, managerial and administrative resources and these increased demands may cause the Company to operate its business less efficiently.

 

Our business could be harmed if we fail to maintain proper inventory levels.

 

We place orders with our manufacturers for some of our products prior to the time we receive all of our customers' orders. We do this to minimize purchasing costs, the time necessary to fill customer orders and the risk of non-delivery. We also maintain an inventory of certain products that we anticipate will be in greater demand. However, we may be unable to sell the products we have ordered in advance from manufacturers or that we have in our inventory. Inventory levels in excess of customer demand may result in inventory write-downs, and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices could significantly impair our brand image and have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. Conversely, if we underestimate consumer demand for our products or if our manufacturers fail to supply the quality products that we require at the time we need them, we may experience inventory shortages. Inventory shortages might delay product shipments, negatively impact key relationships with our customers, and diminish brand loyalty.

 

We rely on contract manufacturing of our products. Our inability to secure production sources meeting our quality, cost, working conditions and other requirements, or failures by our contractors to perform, could harm our sales and reputation.

 

We source our products from international manufacturers. As a result, we must locate and secure production that meets our demands. We depend on our manufacturers to maintain adequate financial resources and maintain sufficient development and manufacturing capacity. We do not have material long-term contracts with any of our manufacturers, and these manufacturers generally may unilaterally terminate their relationship with us at any time. Our dependence on contract manufacturers could subject us to a number of risks if these manufacturers do not meet our quality, cost, working conditions and other requirements or if they fail to materially perform, any of which could seriously harm our sales and reputation. Further, if we need to place greater demands on our current manufacturers due to increased customer demands, or seek additional or replacement manufacturers, we may be unable to do so on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all.

 

We rely on third-party suppliers who provide fabrics to our manufacturers to create our products. We have limited control over them and may not be able to obtain quality products on a timely basis or in sufficient quantity.

 

We do not manufacture our products or the raw materials used to create our products and instead rely on third-party suppliers to supply the materials to our manufacturers. We have no material long-term contracts with these suppliers, and we compete with other companies for fabrics, raw materials, and production. We may experience a significant disruption in the supply of fabrics or raw materials from current sources or, in the event of a disruption, we may be unable to locate alternative materials suppliers of comparable quality at an acceptable price, or at all. In addition, if we experience significant increased demand, or if we need to replace an existing supplier, we may be unable to locate additional supplies of fabrics or raw materials on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, or we may be unable to locate any supplier with sufficient capacity to meet our requirements or to fill our orders in a timely manner. Identifying a suitable supplier is an involved process that requires us to become satisfied with their quality control, responsiveness and service, financial stability and labor and other ethical practices. Even if we are able to expand existing fabric sources, we may encounter delays in production and added costs as a result of the time it takes to train suppliers in our methods, products and quality control standards. Delays related to supplier changes could also arise due to an increase in shipping times if new suppliers are located farther away from our markets or from other participants in our supply chain. Any delays, interruptions or increased costs in the supply of fabrics for our products could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demand for our products and result in lower net revenue and income from operations both in the short and long term.

 

Our business is subject to risks associated with manufacturing overseas.

 

All of our products are manufactured overseas. Our ability to import products in a timely and cost-effective manner may be affected by conditions at ports or issues that otherwise affect transportation, such as port and shipping capacity, labor disputes and work stoppages, political unrest, severe weather, or security concerns. These issues could delay importation of products or require us to locate alternative ports to avoid disruption to our customers. These alternatives may not be available on short notice, if at all, or could result in higher transit costs, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition.

 

Further, our imported products are subject to customs laws, which impose tariffs, as well as import quota restrictions on apparel. While importation of goods from foreign countries from which we buy our products may be subject to embargoes if shipments exceed quota limits, we currently are not restricted by quotas in the operation of our business. However, we have no guarantee that regulations on imported goods will not materially change or that our business will not be adversely affected by duties, tariffs or embargoes in the future.

 

Violation of labor laws and practices by our manufacturers and suppliers could harm our business.

 

We require our manufacturers and suppliers to operate in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. While the Company promotes ethical business practices, we do not control our manufacturers or suppliers or their labor practices. The violation of labor or other laws by any of our manufacturers or suppliers, or divergence of their labor practices from those generally accepted as ethical in the local markets, could interrupt or otherwise disrupt the shipment of our products, harm the value of our trademarks, damage our reputation or expose us to potential liability for their wrongdoings.

 

A privacy breach could damage our reputation and our relationship with our customers, expose the Company to litigation risk and adversely affect our business.

 

As part of our normal course of business, we collect, process and retain sensitive and confidential customer information. Despite security measures we have in place, our facilities and systems may be vulnerable to security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors, or other similar events. Any security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of confidential information could severely damage our reputation and our relationships with our customers, expose the Company to risks of litigation and liability and adversely affect our business.

 

The loss of our Chief Executive Officer or other key personnel would have an adverse impact on our future development and could impair our ability to succeed.

 

Our performance is substantially dependent upon the expertise of our Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Oliver Amhurst, and other key personnel. In addition to his executive officer functions, Mr. Amhurst heads our design team, marketing, and several other aspects of our business operations and his leadership has been instrumental to our business. The death or disability of Mr. Amhurst, temporary or permanent loss of his services, or any negative market or industry perception with respect to him, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our other employees have also made significant contributions to the Company. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of these individuals could also have a material adverse effect on us. We do not maintain "key man" insurance with respect to Mr. Amhurst or any of our other key personnel, and any of them may leave us at any time, which could severely disrupt our business and future operating results.

 

Our sole officer and director may not be subject to suit in the United States, which may prevent investors in our Company from obtaining or enforcing judgments against him under United States Securities Laws.

 

Our sole officer and director, Mr. Oliver Amhurst, is a resident of Great Britain. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for our investors to effect service of process within the United States upon him, to bring suit against him in the United States or to enforce in the United States courts any judgment obtained there against him predicated upon any civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws. Investors should not assume that British courts will either enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against Mr. Amhurst predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or enforce, in original actions, liabilities against him upon the United States federal securities laws or any such state securities or “blue sky” laws.

 

Our sole officer and director beneficially owns a large percentage of our common stock and may be able to exert significant influence and control over us and may make decisions that do not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders.

 

As of the date of this Report, our sole executive officer and director, Mr. Oliver Amhurst, beneficially owns approximately 31.691 percent of our common stock and is our largest stockholder. As a result, Mr. Amhurst is in a position to exert significant control over us and has the ability to substantially influence all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, an increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance under stock option plans, and to control our management and affairs. Accordingly, such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our business, even if such a transaction would be beneficial to other stockholders.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation exculpates our officers and directors from certain liability to our Company or our stockholders.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation contain a provision limiting the liability of our officers and directors for their acts or failures to act, except for acts involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. This limitation on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors and may discourage or deter our stockholders from suing our officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to our Company.

 

Our success depends on the continued protection of our trademarks.

 

Our trademarks are important to our success and competitive position, and the loss of or inability to enforce our trademarks could harm our business. We have devoted and will continue to devote substantial resources to the establishment and protection of our trademarks on a worldwide basis. Despite any precautions we may take to protect our trademarks, policing unauthorized use of them is difficult, expensive and time-consuming, and we may be unable to adequately protect our trademarks or determine the extent of any unauthorized use, particularly in those foreign countries where the laws do not protect proprietary rights as fully as in the United States or United Kingdom. Our efforts to establish and protect our trademarks may not be adequate to prevent imitation or counterfeiting of our products by others or to prevent others from seeking to block sales of our products for violating their trademarks. Unauthorized copying of our products or unauthorized use of our trademarks may decrease sales of our products and cause significant damage to our brand name and our ability to effectively represent ourselves to our customers. Also, we cannot assure you that others will not assert rights in, or ownership of, our trademarks, that our trademarks would be upheld if challenged or that we would, in that event, not be prevented from using our trademarks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Further, we could incur substantial costs in legal actions relating to our use of our trademarks or the use of our trademarks by others. Even if we are successful in these actions, the costs we incur could have a material adverse effect on us.

 

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR COMMON STOCK

 

The Company’s stock price may be volatile.

 

The market price of the Company’s common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various potential factors, many of which will be beyond the Company’s control, including the following:

 

  competition;

 

  additions or departures of key personnel;

 

  the Company’s ability to execute its growth strategies;

 

  operating results that fall below expectations;

 

  loss of any strategic relationship;

 

  industry developments;

 

  economic and other external factors; and

 

  period-to-period fluctuations in the Company’s financial results.

 

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.

 

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

 

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all. We cannot assure you of a positive return on investment or that you will not lose the entire amount of your investment in our common stock.

 

We may in the future issue additional shares of our common stock which would reduce investors’ ownership interests in the Company and which may dilute our share value.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation and amendments thereto authorize the issuance of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The future issuance of all or part of our remaining authorized common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

 

The Company’s common stock is currently deemed to be “penny stock”, which makes it more difficult for investors to sell their shares.

 

The Company’s common stock is currently subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If the Company remains subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for the Company’s securities. If the Company’s securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of the Company’s securities.

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

 

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that relate to the application of the SEC’s penny stock rules in trading our securities and require that a broker/dealer have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer, prior to recommending the investment. Prior to recommending speculative, low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker/dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.

 

Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative, low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA’s requirements make it more difficult for broker/dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our common stock. Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for penny stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker/dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a shareholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock.

 

ITEM 2 FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

The following summarizes the factors affecting the operating results and financial condition of Lot78, unless otherwise indicated.  This discussion should be read together with the financial statements of Lot78 and the notes to financial statements included elsewhere in this Report or incorporated herein by reference. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report. We encourage you to review our “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the front of this Report, and our “Risk Factors” set forth above. The financial statements of Lot78 filed herewith as Exhibit 99.01 are presented in U.S. dollars.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company has generated nominal revenue from its operations. As of March 31, 2013, we had $140 of cash on hand. We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $391,675 during the six months ended March 31, 2013. These operating expenses were comprised of general and administrative expenses, professional fees, and directors’ and consulting fees, and other miscellaneous expenses.

 

We earned revenues of $150,759 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to revenues of $149,936 for the three months March 31, 2012. For the six month period ended March 31, 2013 we earned revenues of $209,454 compared to $286,981 for the corresponding period in 2012. Decreased revenues in the six month period ended March 31, 2013 can be attributed to the difference in the timing of deliveries for the autumn/winter 2012 and 2011 seasons. The Company is reliant on our suppliers to manufacture goods so that we can deliver products to our wholesale customers each season. As there were delays in the production of the autumn/winter 2011 season, the revenue related to that season’s deliveries were recorded during the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The autumn/winter 2012 season, however, was produced and delivered during the quarter ended September 30, 2012. As such, the timing difference caused by the production and delivery of the autumn/winter 2012 and 2011 seasons caused the decrease in revenue in the six month period ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period from the prior year.

 

For the six months ended March 31, 2013, net cash used in operating activities was $177,697 as a result of changes in our working capital and a six month net loss of $322,330.

 

For the six months ended March 31, 2013, net cash provided by financing activities was $149,423 as a result of proceeds of loans from shareholders and short term debt.

 

Our current cash holdings will not satisfy our liquidity requirements and we will require additional financing to pursue our planned business activities. We are in the process of seeking equity financing to fund our operations over the next 12 months. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease our operations. We do not expect the purchase or sale of any significant equipment and have no current material commitments. Management believes that if subsequent private placements are successful, we will generate sales revenue within the following twelve months thereof. However, additional equity financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all, and thus we could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements.

 

Executive Summary

For the year ended September 30, 2012, Lot78 reported net sales of $560,368, a decrease of $142,908, or 20.3%, less than the $703,276 reported for the year ended September 30, 2011. Gross margin increased to 37.5% for the year ended September 30, 2012 compared to 15.4% for the year ended September 30, 2011. Operating expenses, which include all selling, general and administrative costs, decreased by $56,774, or 14.7%, to $329,164 for the year ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $385,938 for the year ended September 30, 2011. Net loss for the year ended September 30, 2012 was $125,495 compared to a net loss of $283,624 for the year ended September 30, 2011.

 

Results of Operations for the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011

 

Revenues

 

We earned revenues of $560,368 for the year ended September 30, 2012, compared to revenues of $703,276 for the year ended September 30, 2011. Decreased revenues in the twelve month period ended September 30, 2012 can be attributed to two factors: (1) Our wholesale orders from a major store in the U.S. were cut from twelve stores to one store for the Autumn/Winter 2012 season, due to production issues in the Spring/Summer 2012 line. They have since increased the number of stores to seven for the Autumn/Winter 2013 season. (2) Our consumer direct sales decreased due to the closure of our retail store 125 Ledbury Road. This decision was taken to divert resources to the development of our online segment via lot78.com in order to increase our margins and to reduce rental overheads.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of goods sold for the year ended September 30, 2012 were $349,791 compared to $594,752 for the year ended September 30, 2011. Cost of goods sold represented 62% of sales for the year ended September 30, 2012 as compared to 84.56% for the year ended September 30, 2012. This decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales for the year ended September 30, 2012 can be attributed to the fact that there were no major stock write offs during the year end. Furthermore, in 2012, we started purchasing the fabric directly from the factories, which had the effect of increasing our margin and reducing our cost of sales.

 

Expenses

 

For the year ended September 30, 2012, expenses decreased by $56,774, or 14.7%, to $329,164 for the year ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $385,938 for the corresponding period in 2011. The majority of this decrease can be attributable to the rent saving on the closure of 125 Ledbury Road.

 

Our comprehensive net loss for the year ended September 30, 2012, was $166,222 compared to $266,583 for the period ended September 30, 2011. We intend to fund additional expenditures through equity and/or debt financing. There can be no assurance that financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

Net Increase (decrease) in Cash During Period   (322)   (29,976)

 

For the year ended September 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities was $366,179 as a result of an increase in our accounts payable and accrued expenses of $482,467, increase in our payroll and sales tax payable of $23,251, an increase in our receivables of $39,544 and an increase in our twelve month net loss of $125,495. Furthermore, our inventories decreased by $18,024.

The reason for the increase in our accounts payable and accrued expenses can be attributed to the transfer of long term debt to short term debt ($365,829) and an increase in our trade payables due to deliveries being received close to our year end.

Our receivables increased due to deliveries made close to the year end for which collections were received after the year end. Our inventories decreased due to write offs made in the year end.

 

For the year ended September 30, 2012, net cash used in financing activities was $365,298 as a result of a long term debt to shareholders being transferred to short term debt at the year end.

 

For the year ended September 30, 2012, net cash used by investing activities was $1,206 for the price of a computer.

 

We will require additional funds to fund our budgeted expenses in the future. These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. As of July 11, 2013 we have managed to raise $825,000 through equity financing. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on their investment in our common stock. Further, we may continue to not be profitable. We may need to raise additional funds in the future in order to proceed with our budgeted expenses. Additionally, there is no assurance that any party will advance additional funds to us in order to enable us to sustain our plan of operations or to repay our liabilities.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2012, included within accrued expenses and other payables of Lot78 is: (a) an amount of $72,311 (September 30, 2011: $96,963) due to Oliver Amhurst, the sole officer and director of Lot78, for interest free loans made to Lot78 for the purposes of purchasing inventory and funding working capital requirements. During the year, Oliver Amhurst received remuneration amounting to $18,168 (September 30, 2011: $9,177). Oliver Amhurst has been repaid part of his loans made to Lot78 and the balance as at July 17, 2013 is $9,247. There are no repayment terms associated with this loan.

 

As of September 30, 2012, included within accrued expenses and other payables is $465,535 (September 30, 2011: $292,193) and included within long-term debt is $189,899 (September 30, 2011: $421,071) owed to David Hardcastle, a shareholder of Lot78. The nature of the short and long term loan were for the purpose of stock purchase and working capital requirements. The short term loan is repayable on demand and is interest free. As of July 16, 2013, $0 of the short term loan has been repaid to Mr. Hardcastle. The long term loan is interest free and has a maturity date of October 1, 2013 and subsequent to the year end the terms of the long term note have been renegotiated.

 

Subsequent to the year end September 2012, the terms of the long term loan from David Hardcastle were renegotiated. The Company has agreed to repay $341,069 of the loan immediately upon the Company securing significant external funding. As soon as this amount is repaid, the balance of $314,365 starts accruing interest at bank base rate (0.5%) plus 2%. The balance plus interest is repayable over a 3 year period by way of quarterly installments. As of July 16, 2013, $0 of the long term loan and $0 of the interest has been repaid to Mr. Hardcastle.

 

Growth of our operations will be based on our ability to internally finance from cash flow, raise equity and/or debt to increase sales and production. Our primary sources of liquidity are: (i) cash from sales of our products; and (ii) financing activities. Our cash balance as of September 30, 2012 is $NIL.

 

We have funded most of our operations by a bank overdraft facility and debt financing with related party transactions. The bank overdraft is secured by both a fixed and floating charge over our company and all property and assets present, and a personal guarantee from the director amounting to $202,055. As of July 11, 2013 our cash balance is $374,500.

 

Going Concern

 

Our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing as we have suffered recurring losses from operations and have a significant net capital deficiency. We are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our planned business activities over the next twelve months. We intend to raise funds through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, however, such funds may not be available to us on favorable terms or at all.

 

Future Financings

 

We will rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned activities.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements included in this Report or incorporated herein by reference. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company 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.

  i.  Acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity;

 

                                            ii.         Engaging in any type of business practice; or

 

                                          iii.         Engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of Federal or State securities laws or Federal commodities laws;

 

  (4) Such person was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any Federal or State authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described in paragraph (f)(3)(i) of this section, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity;

  (7) Such person was the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of:

 

           i.            Any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; or

 

         ii.              Any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. We believe that during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities have not complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements, as none of the executive officers, directors or greater than 10% shareholders have furnished us with Forms 3, 4 or 5 with respect to the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012.

 

Code of Ethics

 

The Company has adopted an informal Code of Ethics that applies to our officers and directors, which we feel is sufficient at this time.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

The Company does not presently have a separately designated standing audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees of our Board of Directors. The functions of those committees are undertaken by our Board of Directors. Because we have only one director, we believe that the creation of these committees, at this time, would be cumbersome and constitute more form over substance.

 

Audit Committee

 

The Company has not established a separately designated standing audit committee. However, the Company intends to establish a new audit committee of the Board of Directors that shall consist of independent directors.  The audit committee’s duties will be to recommend to the Company’s board of directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements and to review the Company’s accounting and auditing principles.  The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls.  The audit committee shall at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.

ITEM 7 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Related Party Transactions

 

The Company

 

As of July 31, 2012, the Company received advances from a Director in the amount of $67,037, to pay for general operating expenses. The amounts due to the related party are unsecured and non-interest bearing with no set terms of repayment. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement with the Company described above under Item 1.01 of this Report, the amounts owed to the Director were forgiven.

 

Lot78

 

As of September 30, 2012, included within accrued expenses and other payables of Lot78 is: (a) an amount of $72,311 (September 30, 2011: $96,963) due to Oliver Amhurst, the sole officer and director of Lot78, for interest free loans made to Lot78 for the purposes of purchasing inventory and funding working capital requirements. During the year, Oliver Amhurst received remuneration amounting to $18,168 (September 30, 2011: $9,177). Oliver Amhurst has been repaid part of his loans made to Lot78 and the balance as at July 17, 2013 is $9,247. There are no repayment terms associated with this loan.

 

As of September 30, 2012, included within accrued expenses and other payables is $465,535 (September 30, 2011: $292,193) and included within long-term debt is $189,899 (September 30, 2011: $421,071) owed to David Hardcastle, a shareholder of Lot78. The nature of the short and long term loan were for the purpose of stock purchase and working capital requirements. The short term loan is repayable on demand and is interest free. As of July 16, 2013, $0 of the short term loan has been repaid to Mr. Hardcastle. The long term loan is interest free and has a maturity date of October 1, 2013 and subsequent to the year end the terms of the long term note have been renegotiated.

 

Subsequent to the year end September 2012, the terms of the long term loan from David Hardcastle were renegotiated. The Company has agreed to repay $341,069 of the loan immediately upon the Company securing significant external funding. As soon as this amount is repaid, the balance of $314,365 starts accruing interest at bank base rate (0.5%) plus 2%. The balance plus interest is repayable over a 3 year period by way of quarterly installments. As of July 16, 2013, $0 of the long term loan and $0 of the interest has been repaid to Mr. Hardcastle.

 

Other than the foregoing, none of the directors or executive officers of the Company or Lot78, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s or Lot78’s outstanding shares of its common stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company or Lot78.

 

With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any and all related party transactions in the following manner:

 

  Disclosing such transactions in reports where required;

 

  Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required;

 

  Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and

 

  Obtaining shareholder consent where required.

 

Director Independence

 

For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCBB on which shares of the Company’s Common Stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements. The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Director” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

 

According to the NASDAQ definition, Oliver Amhurst is not an independent director of the Company or Lot78 because he is also an executive officer of the Company and Lot78.

 

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

ITEM 8 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against the Company or Lot78, nor is the Company or Lot78 involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholders, of the Company or Lot78 is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the interests of the Company or Lot78.

 

ITEM 9 MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

Market For Common Equity

 

There is a limited public market for our common stock. Our common stock has been quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board since July 6, 2009 under the symbol “GOBA.OB.” Effective October 11, 2012, our symbol was changed to “BOLD.OB” to reflect the Company’s name change. On February 6, 2013, our symbol was again changed to “LOTE.OB” to reflect the Company’s new name and business focus. Trading in stocks quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may be unrelated to a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our common stock.

 

OTC Bulletin Board securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTC Bulletin Board securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks. OTC Bulletin Board issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.

 

The following table sets forth the high and low prices quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board for the last two fiscal years based on our fiscal year end July 31, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not be reflective of actual transactions:

 

Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2012
Quarter Ended High $   Low $
July 31, 2012 .15 .13
April 30, 2012 .55 .13
January 31, 2012 .61 .52
October 31, 2011 .55 .31

 

Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2011
Quarter Ended High $                Low $
July 31, 2011 30.00 0.31
April 30, 2011 30.00 1.20
January 31, 2011 1.95 1.95
October 31, 2010 1.95 1.95

 

Dividends

 

No cash dividends were paid on our shares of common stock during the fiscal years ended July 31, 2012 and 2011. We have not paid any cash dividends since our inception and do not foresee declaring any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. On March 24, 2010, we effectuated a 150-for-1 forward stock split and on March 31, 2011, we effectuated a 1-for-25 reverse stock split.

ITEM 12 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

Indemnification Provisions of Company’s Articles of Incorporation

 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide as follows:

 

PARAGRAPH EIGHT

ELIMINATING PERSONAL LIABILITY

 

Officers and directors shall have no personal liability to the corporation or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director. This provision does not eliminate or limit the liability of an officer or director for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or the payment of distributions in violation of the NRS 78.300.

 

Nevada Law on Indemnification

 

Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides, in part, that a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful.

 

Further, a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the Company’s securities, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The information provided below in Item 9.01 of this Report on Form 8-K/A is herein incorporated by reference.

 

ITEM 14 CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

On November 19, 2012, De Joya, Griffith & Company LLC (“De Joya Griffith”) was dismissed as the registered independent public accountant for the Company and MaloneBailey LLP (“MaloneBailey”) accepted the appointment as the registered independent public accountant for the Company. The decisions to appoint MaloneBailey and dismiss De Joya Griffith were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on November 9, 2012.

 

Other than the disclosure of uncertainty regarding the ability for us to continue as a going concern which was included in our accountant’s report on the financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, De Joya Griffith reports on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. For the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period through De Joya Griffith’s termination on November 19, 2012, De Joya Griffith disclosed the uncertainty regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern in its accountant’s report on the financial statements.

 

In connection with the audit and review of the financial statements of the Company through November 19, 2012, there were no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with De Joya Griffith’s opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

 

In connection with the audited financial statements of the Company for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, there have been no reportable events with the Company as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

Prior to November 19, 2012, the Company did not consult with MaloneBailey regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to specified transactions, (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, (3) written or oral advice was provided that would be an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues, or (4) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement between the Company and its predecessor auditor as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to De Joya Griffith prior to the date of filing a Current Report with the Commission on Form 8-K on November 19, 2012 (the “Current Report”) and requested that De Joya Griffith furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agreed with the statements in the Current Report. A copy of the letter furnished in response to that request was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Current Report.

 

Following the Share Exchange Agreement, Lubbock Fine shall assist Lot78, the subsidiary of the Company, it in its UK statutory filings. However, the Company’s independent outside auditor shall remain MaloneBailey, LLP.
