PART I
Item 1. Business
Company
MedCareers Group, Inc. (“MedCareers”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”), the Company described herein, is a Nevada corporation, with offices located at 758 E. Bethel School Road, Coppell, Texas 75019. It can be reached by phone at (972) 393-5892.
History
The Company was formed as RX Scripted, LLC on December 30, 2004 as a North Carolina limited liability company and converted to a Nevada corporation as RX Scripted, Inc. on December 5, 2007.
On or around December 16, 2009, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) to (a) authorize and approve a 10 for 1 forward stock split (the “Stock Split”) of the Company’s authorized and outstanding common stock and preferred stock, effective as of the close of business on January 15, 2010, which effective date was later changed to January 7, 2010 (the “Effective Date”); (b) to change the Company’s name to “MedCareers Group, Inc.” (the “Name Change”); (c) to increase the Company’s total authorized shares of common stock, to 350,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value per share common stock following the Stock Split; and (d) to re-authorize 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share following the Stock Split (collectively with (c) the “Authorized Share Transactions”).
As a result of the Certificate (as corrected) and the Stock Split which became effective January 7, 2010, the Company has 350,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share authorized; and as a result of the Name Change, the Company’s name was changed to MedCareers Group, Inc. Additionally, as a result of filing the Certificate, the Company’s symbol on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board changed to “MCGI”, effective January 7, 2010. Effective in October 2010, we were automatically delisted from the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board for failing to timely file our August 31, 2010 Form 10-Q, and since that time, we have traded on the Pink Sheets trading market under the symbol “MCGI.”
Unless otherwise stated or the context suggests otherwise, the number of shares disclosed throughout this report have been retroactively reflected for the Stock Split.
On or around November 19, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange”) with Nurses Lounge, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Nurses Lounge”) and the nine shareholders of Nurses Lounge (the “Nurses Lounge Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Exchange, we agreed to issue 24,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the Nurses Lounge Shareholders in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Nurses Lounge. Although 24,000,000 restricted shares were issued in connection with the Exchange, certain significant shareholders of the Company also agreed to cancel some of the shares they owned so that the net effect of the Exchange was an increase to the outstanding shares by 7,175,000 shares rather than 24,000,000. Included in the shareholders receiving shares in connection with the Exchange, was Timothy Armes, who received 14,902,795 shares; the Fox-McCarthy Family Limited Partnership, LLP, which is beneficially owned by Martin Fox, which received 3,945,081 shares; and AJBCA, LLLP, which is beneficially owned by Tony Unruh, which received 3,945,081 shares.
4 |
In connection with the Exchange, Archetype Partners, LLC (“Archetype”), our majority shareholder prior to the Exchange, which is controlled by Robert Bryan Crutchfield, our former Chief Executive Officer and director, agreed to cancel 11,185,000 of the shares of common stock which it held (leaving Archetype the holder of 7,575,000 shares post-Exchange) in consideration for $50,000. Additionally, pursuant to a separate Voting Agreement, which has since expired, Archetype agreed to provide Timothy Armes, the largest shareholder of and Chief Executive Officer of Nurses Lounge, rights to vote all 7,575,000 of the shares retained by Archetype (and any additional securities of the Company acquired by Archetype) for a period of two years beginning on November 19, 2010 (the “Voting Agreement”). The Voting Agreement became effective upon the consummation of the Exchange.
Additionally, in connection with and as a required term and condition of the Exchange, a former Chief Executive Officer, director and significant shareholder, MaryAnne McAdams and our former significant shareholder, David M. Loev, each agreed to cancel 2,820,000 shares of common stock which they owned (representing an aggregate of 5,640,000 shares of our common stock) upon the consummation of the Exchange (collectively with the cancellation of the shares by Archetype described above, the “Cancellation Agreements”).
Pursuant to the Exchange, Nurses Lounge became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and as a result of the Exchange, the Cancellation Agreements and the Voting Agreement, Timothy Armes, the former largest shareholder of Nurses Lounge obtained majority voting control over the Company; provided that effective upon the expiration of the Voting Agreement in November 2012, Mr. Armes is no longer our majority shareholder.
Additionally, in November 2010, MaryAnne McAdams, our former Chief Executive Officer, director and significant shareholder, and the Company entered into a Spin-Off Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to spin-off the Company’s prior event planning and consulting operations, assets and liabilities to Ms. McAdams. The Company intends to focus on the Nurses Lounge business operations and model.
Effective September 10, 2011, Marc Bercoon resigned as the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company and William Goldstein resigned as President, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary and as the sole director of the Company. Effective the same date, Timothy Armes, the Company’s then majority shareholder was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director of the Company to fill the vacancies created by such resignations.
History and Description of the Operations of Nurses Lounge
At the beginning of 2003 in Dallas, Texas, Timothy Armes took over control of the nursing internet portal and nursing job board NursesLounge.com and re-launched the web site shortly thereafter. Mr. Armes also launched a localized direct mail magazine as a companion to the website. Years of managing a portal and publishing a monthly magazine gave Mr. Armes insight to numerous organizations in need of a more efficient way to communicate important information to nursing professionals such as news, meetings and continuing education requirements on a timely basis.
With this understanding, and the development of social media technology, Mr. Armes designed and launched a beta version of a professional network for nurses in the summer of 2009 designed to provide a common platform for nursing organizations such as nursing schools, associations and major nurse employers to connect and communicate more effectively to their nurse constituents and broader nursing profession. Additionally, the network was developed to allow individual nurses the ability to interact with these organizations and other professionals via a professional profile separate from a social profile that they may have on Facebook as example.
Today, Nurses Lounge operates as a free online professional network for nursing professionals, and provides a secure place for nurses to connect with colleagues, network on a professional level and subscribe to professional “Lounges” (groups) to receive email updates of relevant news, events and other info.
Interactive Lounges are created primarily by nursing schools, local chapters of nurse associations and major nurse employers. Additionally, Nurses Lounge also has 73 metro/state lounges which aggregate all of the professional nursing news, events and employment opportunities within that certain geographic region.
As a communication utility, Nurses Lounge solves many of the communication issues these organizations face:
· | Local chapters of nurse associations use Nurses Lounge (opposed to outdated, hard to manage static web sites and email lists) as a more efficient way to communicate with their members as well as for recruiting new members and disseminating news and information to their local nursing profession. |
· | Nursing Schools benefit with a group in the Nurses Lounge not only as a means to easily distribute news and info, but also to manage and keep alumni notified of educational opportunities as well as providing a professional networking platform between students, faculty and alumni. |
5 |
· | Employer’s benefits include managing a positive brand, distribution of news, job postings, managing employee referral programs as well as internal communications for things such as shared governance. |
There is no cost to schools, associations or other non-profit organizations to utilize the Nurses Lounge communication and networking capabilities while employers, and other for profit organizations, are charged minimal set-up fees that also may include unlimited job postings for a limited time.
Nurses that register with the Nurses Lounge by creating a professional profile are then able to share their perspectives through their participation in these groups in order to keep current on news, information, meetings and jobs openings as well as to network professionally with like-minded colleagues. Participation and postings by members in Lounges creates new connections and makes it easier for people to find and connect with each other. Finally, by inviting new colleagues and contacts to join them in the Nurses Lounge, members both grow their own network of connections and help to increase membership in Nurses Lounge.
Along with the professional network, Nurses Lounge has a fully functional job board for nursing professionals as well as a nursing faculty job board specialty site for nursing schools looking to hire faculty. This specialty site was launched in June 2012.
The faculty job board was launched in response to the increasing number of schools joining our network and adding their faculty and graduate degree nurses coupled with a growing shortage of nursing faculty.
To date Nurses Lounge, with no dedicated sales force or marketing campaign, has generated small amounts of job posting revenue from these job sites as well as from employers and other for profit organizations paying set-up fees for activating their interactive lounges.
Competition
While there are various online community forums and nurse portals, Nurses Lounge does not believe that there is a direct competitor designed from the ground up as a professional network for nurses and to solve many of the day-to-day communications problems nursing organizations have. The largest competitors of Nurses Lounge bill themselves as “communities” that claim to provide news, career advice and social interaction, and include Nurse.com - owned by Gannett; NurseConnect - owned and operated by AMN healthcare, a large travel firm; NurseZone - also owned and operated by AMN healthcare; and Allnurses – a nursing forum and discussion board. Additionally, and to a lesser extent, Nurses Lounge indirectly competes with other websites that encourage users to create connections with other colleagues and persons with similar interests such as Linkedin and Facebook, however, unlike like these websites which have very broad general appeal, Nurses Lounge focuses solely on the nursing pro and the organizations which support them.
Proprietary Rights
We plan to rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, and non-disclosure and other contractual arrangements to protect our proprietary rights moving forward. There can be no assurance that the steps we plan to take in the future to protect our future proprietary rights, however, will be adequate to deter misappropriation of proprietary information, and we may not be able to detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights. Although we believe that our websites and services will not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others and that we have all rights necessary to utilize our intellectual property, we are subject to the risk of claims alleging infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Any such claims could require us to spend significant sums on litigation, pay damages, delay our products and software, develop non-infringing intellectual property or acquire licenses to intellectual property that are the subject of any such infringement. Therefore, such claims could have a material adverse effect on our planned business, operating results and financial condition.
Nursing Profession Overview
From Nurses Lounge business viewpoint, the nursing profession is broken down into the individual registered nurses (RNs) and the professions stake holder organizations consisting of nursing schools, associations and employers.
Throughout their career, nurses need to be connected with numerous organizations in order to simply stay up to date with basic continuing education requirements which they need to meet state guidelines and/or employers qualification to maintain employment.
As such, we believe that there is an opportunity to unite the industry on one simple to use communication platform that can upgrade, simplify and reduce the cost of communications used by stakeholder organizations while providing nurses quick access to the information important to their careers. The market for nurses is growing in the United States and we believe that our website has a significant number of potential users based on the following:
6 |
- According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Employment Projections 2010-2020 released in February 2012, the Registered Nursing workforce is the top occupation in terms of job growth through 2020. It is expected that the number of employed nurses will grow from 2.74 million in 2010 to 3.45 million in 2020, an increase of 712,000 or 26%.
- Based on findings from the Nursing Management Aging Workforce Survey released in the July 2006 issue of Nursing Management magazine, 55% of surveyed nurses reported their intention to retire between 2011 and 2020.
- Approximately 660 4-year schools offer a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and other advanced degrees such as Masters and PhD.
- Approximately 2,500 community college type schools offer a 2 year Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN).
- Approximately 5,000 hospitals are located across the U.S. where approximately 60% of all nurses are employed, according to American Association Colleges of Nursing (AACN).
- An approximate 250,000 shortage in nurses has been predicted by 2018.
Due to the above factors, the Company’s Nurses Lounge professional Network has a significant market for their services and that even with significant competition for recruitment and job placement services as described below in the risk factor entitled “WE WILL FACE SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION FROM MONSTER.COM and CAREERBUILDER, NICHE HEALTHCARE SITES SUCH AS NURSE.COM AND HEALTHECAREERS AS WELL AS JOB AGGREGATOR SITES SUCH AS INDEED.COM AND SIMPLYHIRED AND OTHER INTERNET JOB POSTING WEBSITES”. ”, there will be room in the global marketplace for website posting, recruiting and job placement services for the Company’s niche healthcare related websites.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Business Risk
An investment in our common stock is highly speculative, and should only be made by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment in us. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information in this annual report before deciding to become a holder of our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be negatively affected to a significant extent.
We Require Additional Capital In Order To Take The Necessary Steps To Grow Our Business.
Currently, the Company does not have available funds to develop the marketing and advertising materials or fund other operating and general and administrative expenses necessary to grow its business. The Company has decided to abandon the previously announced acquisition targets described above and focus on the Nurses Lounge business which does not require significant capital. The Company believes that moving forward it will be able to enlist commission based sales persons to generate sales and revenue without incurring significant overhead. The Company has used some available funds to hire independent contractors to pursue sales. If we cannot secure additional financing, our growth and operations could be impaired by limitations on our access to capital. There can be no assurance that capital from outside sources will be available, or if such financing is available, that it will be on terms that management deems sufficiently favorable. If we are unable to obtain additional financing upon terms that management deems sufficiently favorable, or at all, it could have a material adverse impact upon our ability to conduct our business operations and pursue our expansion of Nurses Lounge. As of the date of this report, we have only limited operations,and did not generate any significant revenues during the years ended January 31, 2013 or 2012. In the event we do not raise additional capital from conventional sources, it is likely that we may need to scale back or curtail implementing our business plan, which could cause any securities in the Company to be worthless.
Shareholders May Be Diluted Significantly Through Our Efforts To Obtain Financing, Satisfy Obligations And/Or Complete Acquisitions Through The Issuance Of Additional Shares Of Our Common Stock Or Other Securities.
We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock or other securities. Additionally, moving forward, we may attempt to conduct acquisitions of other entities or assets using our common stock or other securities as payment for such acquisitions. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock with various preferences and other rights. These actions may result in substantial dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, and dilute the book value of the Company’s common stock.
We Have Historically Generated Limited Revenues And Have Generated Only Nominal Revenues For A Period Of Over Two Years.
7 |
We generated nominal revenues for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 of $20,153 and $20,448 respectively. Furthermore, we anticipate our expenses increasing in the future. We do not currently generate significant revenues. We can make no assurances that we will be able to generate any revenues in the future, that we will have sufficient funding to support our operations and pay our expenses. In the event we are unable to generate revenues and/or support our operations, we will be forced to curtail and/or abandon our current business plan and any investment in the Company could become worthless.
Since Acquiring Nurses Lounge, We Are No Longer Currently Actively Pursuing Acquisition And/Or Merger Opportunities But We May Choose To Enter Into Additional Merger And/Or Acquisition Transactions In The Future.
Although it is not presently anticipated that the Company will make a significant acquisition, the Company may enter into additional merger and/or acquisitions with separate companies, which may result in our majority shareholders changing and new shares of common or preferred stock being issued, resulting in substantial dilution to our then current shareholders. If we do consummate any acquisitions, and our management fails to properly manage and direct our operations, we may be forced to scale back or abandon our operations, which will cause the value of our common stock to decline or become worthless.
Shareholders Who Hold Unregistered Shares Of Our Common Stock Are Subject To Resale Restrictions Pursuant To Rule 144, Due To Our Status As A Former “Shell Company.”
Pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), a “shell company” is defined as a company that has no or nominal operations; and, either no or nominal assets; assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. As such, we believe we were a “shell company” pursuant to Rule 144 prior to our acquisition of WorkAbroad.com on August 10, 2010, and as such, sales of our securities pursuant to Rule 144 are not able to be made until 1) we have ceased to be a “shell company”; 2) we are subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and have filed all of our required periodic reports for the prior one year period; and a period of at least twelve months has elapsed from the date “Form 10 information” has been filed with the Commission reflecting the Company’s status as a non-“shell company,” , which information was filed on August 11, 2010, and which sales pursuant to Rule 144 can therefore not be made any earlier than the date that we are current in our filings with the Commission. Because none of our non-registered securities can be sold pursuant to Rule 144, until at least the date we are current in our filings (or longer if we are still deemed to be a “shell company”), any non-registered securities we sell or issue to consultants or employees, in consideration for services rendered or for any other purpose, will have no liquidity until and unless such securities are registered with the Commission and/or until at least the later of (a) the date we become current in our filings, provided that there is no assurance that we will become current in our filings (or one year following the date we are deemed to not be a “shell company”); and (b) six months from the issuance of such securities. Additionally, in the future, if we cease filing reports with the Commission or Rule 144 is not available for the sale of our securities, it may be impossible for holders of our securities to sell such securities. As a result, it may be harder for us to fund our operations and pay our consultants with our securities instead of cash. Furthermore, it will be harder for us to raise funding through the sale of debt or equity securities unless we agree to register such securities with the Commission, which could cause us to expend additional resources in the future. Additionally, moving forward, our status as a former “shell company” could prevent us from raising additional funds, engaging consultants, and using our securities to pay for any acquisitions (although none are currently planned), which could cause the value of our securities, if any, to decline in value or become worthless.
Timothy Armes, The Chief Executive Officer Of The Company, Exercises Significant Voting Control Over The Company.
As a result of the Exchange and the other transactions described above, Timothy Armes, the former largest shareholder of Nurses Lounge and our Chief Executive Officer and sole director, has beneficial ownership of 18,902,795 shares (such shares includes 4 million shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options) or approximately 35.5% of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, Mr. Armes currently has significant voting control in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election and removal of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. Any investors who purchase shares will have little to no say in the direction of the Company and the election of directors. Additionally, it will be difficult if not impossible for investors to remove Mr. Armes from any officer position or director position he may choose to hold within the Company, which will mean he will remain in constructive control of who serves as officers of the Company as well as whether any changes are made in the Board of Directors. As a potential investor in the Company, you should keep in mind that even if you own shares of the Company's common stock and wish to vote them at annual or special shareholder meetings, your shares will likely have little effect on the outcome of corporate decisions.
Our Limited Operating History Makes It Difficult To Forecast Our Future Results, Making Any Investment In Us Highly Speculative.
We have a limited operating history, and our historical financial and operating information is of limited value in predicting our future operating results. We may not accurately forecast customer behavior and recognize or respond to emerging trends, changing preferences or competitive factors facing us, and, therefore, we may fail to make accurate financial forecasts. Our current and future expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenue. As a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall, which could then force us to curtail or cease our business operations.
8 |
Our Losses Raise Doubt As To Whether We Can Continue As A Going Concern.
We had cumulative operating losses through January 31, 2013 of $4,755,621 and had a working capital deficit at January 31, 2013 of $774,716. These factors among others indicate that we may be unable to continue as a going concern, particularly in the event that we cannot generate revenues, obtain additional financing and/or obtain profitable operations. As such, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty and if we cannot continue as a going concern, your investment in us could become devalued or worthless.
Our Industry Is Highly Competitive.
The Company’s industry is highly competitive and fragmented. The Company expects competition to intensify in the future. The Company competes in its market with numerous national, regional and local companies, many of which have substantially greater financial, managerial and other resources than those presently available to the Company. Numerous well-established companies are focusing significant resources on providing services that currently compete and will compete with the Company's services in the future. Although we believe that there is a need for a “niche” business, such as ours, the Company can make no assurance that it will be able to effectively compete with these other companies that may enter the market of Nurses Lounge. In the event that the Company cannot effectively compete on a continuing basis or competitive pressures arise, such inability to compete or competitive pressures will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Success Of The Company Depends Heavily On Timothy Armes, Our Sole Director and Chief Executive Officer.
The success of the Company will depend on the ability of Timothy Armes, our sole director and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of Mr. Armes will have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations (if any) and financial condition of the Company. In addition, the loss of Mr. Armes may force the Company to seek a replacement who may have less experience, fewer contacts, or less understanding of the business. Further, we may not be able to find a suitable replacement for Mr. Armes, which could force the Company to curtail its operations and/or cause any investment in the Company to become worthless.
In The Future We May Be Subject To Intellectual Property Rights Claims Which Are Costly To Defend, Could Require Us To Pay Damages, And Could Limit Our Ability To Use Certain Technologies In The Future.
Companies in the Internet, technology and media industries own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. Our future technologies may not be able to withstand any third-party claims or rights against their use. Any intellectual property claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, expensive to litigate or settle and could divert management resources and attention. An adverse determination also could prevent us from offering our services to others.
With respect to any intellectual property rights claim, we may have to pay damages or stop using technology found to be in violation of a third party’s rights. We may have to seek a license for the technology, which may not be available on reasonable terms and may significantly increase our operating expenses. The technology also may not be available for license to us at all. As a result, we may also be required to develop alternative non-infringing technology, which could require significant effort and expense. If we cannot license or develop technology for the infringing aspects of our business, we may be forced to limit our product and service offerings and may be unable to compete effectively. Any of these results could harm our brand and operating results.
Privacy Concerns Relating To Elements Of Our Technology Could Damage Our Reputation And Deter Current And Potential Users From Using Our Products And Services.
From time to time, concerns may be expressed about whether our future technology compromises the privacy of users and others. Concerns about our collection, use or sharing of personal information or other privacy-related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and operating results.
More Individuals Are Using Non-Pc Devices To Access The Internet, And Our Future Technology May Not Be Widely Adopted By Users Of These Devices.
The number of people who access the Internet through devices other than personal computers, including mobile telephones, hand-held calendaring and email assistants, and television set-top devices, has increased dramatically in the past few years. The lower resolution, functionality and memory associated with alternative devices of our websites may not perform well for these non-PC devices, which may greatly limit the marketability of our website to this increasingly important non-PC device portion of the market for online services.

We May Rely On Insurance In The Future To Mitigate Some Risks And, To The Extent The Cost Of Insurance Increases Or We Are Unable Or Choose Not To Maintain Sufficient Insurance To Mitigate The Risks Facing Our Business, Our Operating Results May Be Diminished.
We currently plan to contract for insurance to cover certain potential risks and liabilities. In the current environment, insurance companies are increasingly specific about what they will and will not insure. It is possible that we may not be able to get enough insurance to meet our needs, may have to pay very high prices for the coverage we do get or may not be able to acquire any insurance for certain types of business risk. In addition, we may choose not to obtain insurance for certain risks facing our business. This could leave us exposed to potential claims. If we were found liable for a significant claim in the future, our operating results could be negatively impacted. Also, to the extent the cost of maintaining insurance increases, our operating results will be negatively affected.
We Have To Keep Up With Rapid Technological Change To Remain Competitive In Our Rapidly Evolving Industry.
Our future success will depend on our ability to implement our plans, adapt to rapidly changing technologies and evolving industry standards to improve the performance and reliability of our services. Our failure to adapt to such changes would harm our business. New technologies and advertising media could adversely affect us. In addition, the widespread adoption of new Internet, networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological changes could require substantial expenditures to modify or adapt our future technology for these changing demands.
Nurses Lounge Has Not Produced Significant Revenue To Date.
Nurses Lounge has not generated significant revenue to date. Although the Company is optimistic about the potential for such website to generate revenues, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its endeavors or will be able to create a successful revenue generating operation, or that Nurses Lounge will generate sufficient revenues to allow us to support our operations. As such, we may never generate significant revenue and our securities may decline in value or become worthless.
We Will Face Significant Competition From Monster.Com And Careerbuilder, Niche Healthcare Sites Such As Nurse.Com And Healthecareers As Well As Job Aggregator Sites Such As Indeed.Com And Simplyhired And Other Internet Job Posting Websites.
Although the Company does not intend to utilize nurseslounge.com in a manner to directly compete with established job posting websites, the Company acknowledges that we face competition in every aspect of our planned business, and particularly from other companies that seek to connect people with jobs and employers with employees through the use of the Internet, including, but not limited to Monster.com and Careerbuilder.com, niche healthcare sites such as Nurse.com and HealtheCareers, aggregator sites such as Indeed.com and Simplyhired.com and other Internet job sites We will also compete with companies, including recruiting search firms, as well as newspapers, magazines and other traditional media companies that provide online job search services, such as CareerPath.com. We also compete with large Internet information hubs, or portals, such as AOL.com, Google.com, Yahoo.com and Bing.com. Finally, we compete with “communities” that claim to provide nurses with news, career advice and social interaction, and include Nurse.com - owned by Gannett; NurseConnect - owned and operated by AMN healthcare, a large travel firm; NurseZone - also owned and operated by AMN healthcare; and Allnurses – a nursing forum and discussion board. Additionally, and to a lesser extent, Nurses Lounge competes with other websites that encourage users to create connections with other colleagues and persons with similar interests such as LinkedIn and Facebook.
We may also experience competition in the future from potential customers to the extent that they develop their own services internally. All of those companies and potential competitors will likely have more employees, more resources, better brand recognition, and longer operating histories than we do. Although it is not the Company’s intent to operate a website that competes with these established brands, we may be unable to compete with these and other websites in the efforts to draw Internet traffic to our websites in the future, which could force us to curtail our business plan or operations, which would ultimately cause the value of our securities to decline in value or become worthless.
Our Intellectual Property Rights Are Valuable, And Any Inability To Protect Them Could Reduce The Value Of Our Products, Services And Brand.
Currently, the fees to retain the use of our domain names are relatively immaterial, but if the classification of domain names were to change and the costs of securing the attendants rights to domain names were to become significant or if registrations for domain names were to significantly increase, the Company could be in a position where it could not afford to maintain its rights to its domain names. Although the Company does not anticipate this to occur, any significant increase in these types of costs could harm our business or our ability to protect our ownership rights and could make it more expensive to do business and harm our operating results, if any.

We Face Risks In Connection With Changes In The Industry That Currently Exist That Allow Websites To Generate Revenue From A Variety Of Means Such As Pay Per Click; Keyword Purchases; Paid Search Results; Revenue Sharing From Advertising; And Banner Ads.
Currently, websites are able to generate revenue from a variety of uses and services. To the extent any of these uses become more limited or there is a trend away from online commercial activity to any degree or there is a greater shift in the economic environment away from Internet based businesses, the Company’s prospects and plans can be diminished or made infeasible. Any of these conditions could make the Company’s ability to operate more difficult and could have an adverse effect on the Company’s securities.
Our Planned Future Operations Could Be Hindered By The Slow Economic Recovery.
The online job and employment recruitment industry is largely dependent on the demand for such employees and the general economic conditions, including the unemployment rate in the United States and internationally. Due to the fact that the United States and several other international countries are currently in a slow economic recovery from the last recession, demand for online recruitment offerings and the recruitment of healthcare workers in general, may be significantly and adversely affected by the level of economic activity, demand for healthcare workers and the level of unemployment in the United States and abroad. A further prolonged economic recovery could cause employers to reduce or postpone their recruiting efforts generally and their online recruiting efforts in particular, which could have adverse effects on our planned business, future results of operations and financial condition, which could be materially and adversely affected.
We May Be Unable To Build Awareness Of The "Nurses Lounge" Brand Name.
We believe that building awareness of the "Nurses Lounge" brand name is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our services. Brand recognition is a key differentiating factor among providers of online recruitment offerings and other services and we believe it could become more important as competition increases. Moving forward, funding permitting, we may find it necessary to spend significant funds on our sales and marketing efforts or otherwise increase our financial commitment, if any, to creating and maintaining brand awareness among potential customers. If we fail to successfully promote and maintain our brand or incur significant expenses in promoting our brand, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
Our Future Business Will Be Dependent On the Development and Maintenance of the Internet Infrastructure.
Our success will depend, in large part, upon the development and maintenance of the Internet infrastructure as a reliable network backbone with the necessary speed, data capacity and security, and timely development of enabling products, for providing reliable Internet access and services. We cannot assure you that the Internet infrastructure will continue to effectively support the demands placed on it as the Internet continues to experience increased numbers of users, greater frequency of use or increased bandwidth requirements of users. Even if the necessary infrastructure or technologies are developed, we may have to spend considerable resources to adapt our offerings accordingly. Furthermore, in the past, the Internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays. Any future outages or delays could affect our ability to maintain and operate our websites and the willingness of employers and job seekers to use our future online recruitment offering. If any of these events occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
Breaches Of Internet Security Could Adversely Affect Our Business Operations.
The need to securely transmit confidential information over the Internet has been a significant barrier to electronic commerce and communications over the Internet. Any well-publicized compromise of security on the Internet could deter more people from using the Internet or from using it to conduct transactions that involve transmitting confidential information, such as a job seeker's resume or an employer's hiring needs. We may be required to incur significant costs to protect against the threat of security breaches to our websites in the future or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches. If any of these events occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
We May Be Liable For Information Retrieved From Or Transmitted Over The Internet.
We may be sued for defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement, personal injury or other legal claims relating to information that is published or made available on our website. These types of claims have been brought, sometimes successfully, against online services in the past. We could also be sued for the content that is accessible from our websites through links to other Internet sites or through content and materials that may be posted by employers or job seekers. In addition, we could incur significant costs in investigating and defending such claims, even if we ultimately are not found liable. If any of these events occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our Growth Will Place Significant Strains On Our Resources.
The Company's growth, if any, is expected to place a significant strain on the Company's managerial, operational and financial resources as the Company only has two officers and a small number of employees and the Company will likely continue to have limited employees in the future. Furthermore, assuming the Company receives clients, it will be required to manage multiple relationships with various clients and other third parties. These requirements will be exacerbated in the event of further growth of the Company or in the number of its clients. There can be no assurance that the Company's systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support the Company's operations or that the Company will be able to achieve the rapid execution necessary to successfully offer its services and implement its business plan. The Company's future operating results, if any, will also depend on its ability to add additional personnel commensurate with the growth of its business, if any. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.
Our Articles Of Incorporation, As Amended, And Bylaws Limit The Liability Of, And Provide Indemnification For, Our Officers And Directors.
Our Articles of Incorporation, generally limit our officers' and directors' personal liability to the Company and its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director except for breach of the duty of loyalty or acts or omissions not made in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws provide indemnification for our officers and directors to the fullest extent authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes against all expense, liability, and loss, including attorney's fees, judgments, fines excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by an officer or director in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "Proceeding") to which the officer or director is made a party or is threatened to be made a party, or in which the officer or director is involved by reason of the fact that he or she is or was an officer or director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an officer or director of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise whether the basis of the Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as an officer or director, or in any other capacity while serving as an officer or director. Thus, the Company may be prevented from recovering damages for certain alleged errors or omissions by the officers and directors for liabilities incurred in connection with their good faith acts for the Company. Such an indemnification payment might deplete the Company's assets. Stockholders who have questions respecting the fiduciary obligations of the officers and directors of the Company should consult with independent legal counsel. It is the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission that exculpation from and indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the rules and regulations thereunder is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.
As We Are A Public Reporting Company, We Will Incur Significant Costs In Connection With Compliance With Section 404 Of The Sarbanes Oxley Act, And Our Management Will Be Required To Devote Substantial Time To New Compliance Initiatives.
We are subject to among other things, the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (provided however that we are currently deficient in our filing obligations), and will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses in connection with such requirements. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act") and new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have imposed various new requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. As such, our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these new compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we report on the effectiveness of our internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure of controls and procedures. Our compliance with Section 404 will require that we incur additional accounting expense and expend significant management efforts. We currently do not have an internal audit group, and we will need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge to have effective internal controls for financial reporting. Additionally, due to the fact that we only have two persons who serve as our officers and directors, who have no experience as officers or directors of a reporting company, such lack of experienced personnel may impair our ability to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, which may result in material misstatements to our financial statements and an inability to provide accurate financial information to our stockholders. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identify deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline, and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.
The Market for Our Common Stock is Illiquid, Sporadic and Subject to Wide Fluctuations.
Our common stock currently trades on the OTC Pink market (otherwise known as the “pink sheets”) under the symbol “MCGI” and historically only a limited number of shares of our common stock have traded. There may not be an active public market for our common stock in the future. If there is an active market for our common stock in the future, we anticipate that such market would be illiquid and would be subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including, but not limited to:
12 |
(1) | actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations; | |
(2) | our ability or inability to generate new revenues; | |
(3) | the number of shares in our public float; | |
(4) | increased competition; and | |
(5) | conditions and trends in our industry, and possible healthcare legislation; and | |
(6) | future acquisitions we may make. |
Furthermore, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Additionally, moving forward we anticipate having a limited number of shares in our public float, and as a result, there could be extreme fluctuations in the price of our common stock. Further, due to the limited volume of our shares which trade and our limited public float, we believe that our stock prices (bid, ask and closing prices) will be entirely arbitrary, will not relate to the actual value of the Company, and will not reflect the actual value of our common stock. Shareholders and potential investors in our common stock should exercise caution before making an investment in the Company, and should not rely on the publicly quoted or traded stock prices in determining our common stock value, but should instead determine the value of our common stock based on the information contained in the Company's public reports, industry information, and those business valuation methods commonly used to value private companies.
Investors May Face Significant Restrictions On The Resale Of Our Common Stock Due To Federal Regulations Of Penny Stocks.
Our common stock is subject to the requirements of Rule 15(g)9, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act as long as the price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share. Under such rule, broker-dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements, including a requirement that they make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's consent prior to the transaction. The Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990, also requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock. Generally, the Commission defines a penny stock as any equity security not traded on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The required penny stock disclosures include the delivery, prior to any transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with it. Such requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of the securities and the ability of purchasers to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Such requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of the securities and the ability of purchasers to sell their securities in the secondary market.
In addition, various state securities laws impose restrictions on transferring "penny stocks" and as a result, investors in the common stock may have their ability to sell their shares of the common stock impaired.
Shareholders May Be Diluted Significantly Through Our Efforts To Obtain Financing And Satisfy Obligations Through The Issuance Of Additional Shares Of Our Common Stock.
We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.

State Securities Laws May Limit Secondary Trading, Which May Restrict The States In Which And Conditions Under Which You Can Sell Shares.
Secondary trading in our common stock may not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted.
Because We Are Not Subject To Compliance With Rules Requiring The Adoption Of Certain Corporate Governance Measures, Our Stockholders Have Limited Protections Against Interested Director Transactions, Conflicts Of Interest And Similar Matters.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and American Stock Exchanges and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities that are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than legally required, we have not yet adopted these measures.
Because our sole director is not independent, we do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, our sole director has the ability to, among other things; determine his own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar matters and any potential investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.
We intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain additional qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Plans Moving Forward
The Company previously operated as an event planning consulting company engaged in the planning and execution of medical meetings and educational programs for nurses, physicians, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals. Moving forward, and subsequent to the acquisition of Nurses Lounge, we plan to focus on Nurses Lounge, and have discontinued the event planning and consulting operations and in fact have spun-off that operation as of November 30, 2010 as described above.
Moving forward in the near term, management intends to concentrate on growing individual nurse membership by adding Nursing Schools, Student Nurse Associations and Professional Nurse Associations to our network.
We expect to do this by introducing these organizations to and educating them on the benefits that our network offers. Specifically in terms of providing them a free, branded turn-key solution for instant communications of news and information to their constituents as well as increased exposure for their organization to the broader nursing profession.
As these organizations join our network they invite their members to join their “interactive lounge”. As an example, the University of Texas at Arlington College of Nursing to date has had over 900 students, alumni and faculty connect with them in the Nurses Lounge via an invitation sent from the Dean of their nursing school as well as Nurses Lounge “NL” icon they have placed on their web site.
We also intend to strengthen our brand and grow membership through increased marketing efforts and expanded and enhanced features and functionalities over time, funding permitting.
Additionally, as membership grows, management will look to diversify the revenue model from primarily job posting revenue. Potential income streams are expected to include targeted banner ads, email sponsorships, Groupon type sales as well as mobile apps.
With funds permitting, to support these revenue streams and grow our network, management will be looking to hire 12-15 “regional publishers” as well as marketing support personnel. These publishers will be responsible for revenue generation and membership growth in their assigned markets.
We are currently considering offerings of securities under private placements, acquisitions (which are directly related to Nurses Lounge), issuing debt instruments, and joint ventures with other companies public and private and other activities to either build sales or generate much needed capital to grow and undertake our business plan (for example, obtain, if possible, loans). However, we do not currently have any lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt securities and loans from our shareholders and other third parties.
Our financial statements contain information expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Moving forward throughout fiscal year 2014, we hope to expand our services into providing Student Nurse Associations (SNAs), a needed professional communication platform that will allow them to help communicate more efficiently with current members while additionally building their organizations membership. Additionally, with our administration and SEC reporting obligations current, we will be positioned to spend the majority of any equity raised to build a national sales team with needed sales and marketing. The Company estimates it needs $750,000 to fully implement its business plan. However, the Company can support its operations for 90 days with its cash on hand.
Recent Activity
From the launch of the Nurses Lounge network in 2009 through the year ending January 31, 2013 Nurses Lounge focused on working with organizations around the Dallas Fort Worth, Texas area. This process and time allowed us to better understand the communication needs and desires of these organizations and provided us the insight on how best to structure the network to meet the communication needs of our target markets across the nation.
During the fiscal year ending January 31, 2013, with 2 full time employees, Nurses Lounge concentrated on building out the network by creating 73 metro lounges representing all the major metro areas and/or states across the U.S. Additionally we created over 500 “interactive lounges” for BSN schools across the nation and positioned ourselves for a national rollout as funds became available.
During the fiscal year that ended January 31, 2013 we began marketing to BSN schools and selected associations across the U.S.
20 |
Additionally we launched a “Nursing Faculty” specialty job site in June of 2012. This was done based on the numerous experienced faculty members and educationally qualified nurses (MSN and PhD candidates) that were joining our network as well as the growing demand for nursing faculty across the U.S. Additionally management found very little direct competition in the space.
Results of Operations For the Year Ended January 31, 2013 compared to the year ended January 31, 2012
We had revenue of $20,153 for the year ended January 31, 2013, compared to $20,448 for the year ended January 31, 2012. We had total cost of revenues of $39,414 and total gross loss of $19,261 for the year ended January 31, 2013, compared to cost of revenues of $52,578 and total gross loss of $32,130 for the year ended January 31, 2012.
We had total operating expenses of $1,258,537 for the year ended January 31, 2013, consisting of $331,556 of depreciation and amortization, $40,526 of selling and advertising expenses and $886,425 of general and administrative expenses, approximately half of which was stock option expense (non-cash). For the year ended January 31, 2012, we had total operating expenses of $410,360, consisting of depreciation and amortization of $167,366, $29,203 of selling and advertising expenses and $213,792 of general and administrative expenses.
We had total other expenses of $70,154 for the year ended January 31, 2013, compared to total other expenses of $56,273 for the year ended January 31, 2012. Other expense was totally interest for 2013 and all but $4,087 of a loss on disposal of assets was interest in 2012.
We had a net loss of $1,347,952 for the year ended January 31, 2013, compared to a net loss of $498,764 for the year ended January 31, 2012, an increase in net loss of $849,188 from the prior period, due to rising expenses for our business and non-cash expenses of $478,367 for stock option expense and $331,586 for amortization of deferred fees.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of January 31, 2013, the Company had total current assets of $89,680, consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, and total other assets of $92,217, consisting of deferred fees of $92,217 relating to consideration paid for making or extending loans. We had total liabilities of $889,396, including total current liabilities of $864,396, including accounts payable of $6,918, accounts payable to related parties of $178,143, accrued expenses of $11,852, accrued interest payable of $89,333 and $578,150 of current portion of long-term debt in connection with working capital loans, and long term liabilities consisting of $25,000 of notes payable.
We had negative working capital of $774,716 as of January 31, 2013.
Net cash used in operations for the year ended January 31, 2013 was $316,382 compared to $203,127 for the year ended January 31, 2012.
Cash provided from the disposal of fixed assets was $0 for the year ended January 31, 2013 compared to $191,026 for the year ended January 31, 2012.
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended January 31, 2013 was $405,150 compared to $11,888 for the year ended January 31, 2012. This is primarily due to an increase in the proceeds from notes payable.
On or around March 2, 2010, we entered into a Letter of Intent to acquire the Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) www.WorkAbroad.com (“WorkAbroad.com” and the “Purchase”). The purchase price was $225,000 (the “Purchase Price”). On March 8, 2010, the Company paid the required 10% down payment (equal to $22,500) on the purchase price to Steve Elisberg (the “Seller”). The remaining balance due ($202,500) pursuant to the Purchase was payable at a rate of $2,248 per month, beginning in April 2010, based on a 10 year amortizing loan with interest at 6% with a balloon payment of all unpaid principal and interest due 36 months after closing (the “Loan”). The parties entered into a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement on August 10, 2010 and a formal closing of the Purchase occurred on August 10, 2010. The Company made the initial payment to the Seller in March 2010 so that it could assume operations of WorkAbroad.com at the time of the parties’ entry into the Letter of Intent rather than waiting for the formal closing.
The repayment of the Loan was secured by a security interest over WorkAbroad.com. Since the closing of the Nurses Lounge acquisition, Timothy Armes, the controlling shareholder of the Company decided to terminate pursuit of the previously disclosed acquisition opportunities so that the Company could focus on developing Nurses Lounge and businesses that are complementary to Nurses Lounge.
In connection therewith on July 8, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Fiakow Properties, LLC (“Fiakow”, pursuant to which Fiakow purchased the Company’s entire right and interest in workabroad.com and the August 10, 2010 Asset Purchase Agreement for an aggregate of $1,000, provided that the Seller did not formally release the Company from liability in connection with the August 10, 2010 Asset Purchase Agreement and the Company is still responsible for repaying the Loan, notwithstanding the assumption of the Loan by Fiakow, to Seller. As of the date of this filing, an aggregate of $0 is due under the Loan, which payments thereon have been made by Fiakow subsequent to August 11, 2010.

On February 8, 2011, the Company obtained a $70,000 loan from a third party, which was evidenced by a Promissory Note. The note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum, payable monthly in arrears, and has a maturity date of February 15, 2012. In consideration for making the loan, the Company agreed to issue the third party 100,000 shares of restricted common stock. The loan will be funded in three installments: $30,000 on or before February 10, 2011; $20,000 on or before February 24, 2011; and $20,000 on or before March 10, 2011. The stock issued had a value of $18,200 on the date of the grant, based on the closing trading price on February 8, 2011. The $18,200 is treated as a discount on the loan. Accordingly, the loan will be reflected as a liability of $51,800 and the $18,200 discount will be reduced pro rata over the term of the loan as additional interest expense on the note and added to the loan balance on a monthly basis.
The Company has borrowed funds and/or sold stock for working capital. These transactions are detailed in the section “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities”.
Currently the Company does not have sufficient cash reserves to meet its contractual obligations under the Purchase and Loan and its ongoing monthly expenses, which the Company anticipates totaling approximately $250,000 over the next 12 months. The Company has been able to continue operating to date largely from loans made by its shareholders and other debt financings to date. The Company is currently looking at both short-term and more permanent financing opportunities, including debt or equity funding, bridge or short term loans, and/or traditional bank funding, but we have not decided on any specific path moving forward. Until we have raised sufficient funding to pay our ongoing expenses associated with being a public company, and we have sufficient funds to support our planned operations, the Company can provide no assurances that it will be able to meet its short and long term liquidity needs, until necessary financing is secured. The Company has started to generate revenue from the Nurses Lounge business in 2011, which the Company hopes will increase to the point where the Company can finance at least a substantial portion of the Company’s obligations, of which there can be no assurance.
We do not currently have any additional formal commitments or identified sources of additional capital from third parties or from our officers, director or significant shareholders. We can provide no assurance that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If we are not able to raise the capital necessary to continue our business operations, we may be forced to abandon or curtail our business plan.
In the future, we may be required to seek additional capital by selling additional debt or equity securities, selling assets, if any, or otherwise be required to bring cash flows in balance when we approach a condition of cash insufficiency. The sale of additional equity or debt securities, if accomplished, may result in dilution to our then shareholders. We provide no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

MedCareers Group, Inc.
Coppell, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MedCareers Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended and the period since reentering the development stage (January 1, 2009) through January 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of MedCareers Group, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2013 and 2012 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MedCareers Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2013 and 2012,and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and the period since reentering the development stage (January 1, 2009) through January 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

MEDCAREERS GROUP, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
January 31, 2013 and 2012
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Activities, History and Organization – The Company was formed as RX Scripted, LLC on December 30, 2004 as a North Carolina limited liability company and converted to a Nevada corporation as RX Scripted, Inc. on December 5, 2007. On December 16, 2009, an amendment was filed with the State of Nevada to change the name to “MedCareers Group, Inc.” (the “Company” or “MedCareers”) and change the authorized capital of the Company. On November 5, 2010, the Company issued 24,000,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for 100% of Nurses Lounge, Inc. (“Nurses Lounge”), a Texas corporation. As a result of the share exchange, Nurses Lounge became the wholly-owned subsidiary of MedCareers. As a result, the shareholders of Nurses Lounge owned a majority of the voting stock of MedCareers. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger whereby Nurses Lounge was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its shareholders retained control of MedCareers after the exchange, although MedCareers is the legal parent company. The share exchange was treated as a recapitalization of MedCareers. As such, Nurses Lounge (and its historical financial statements) is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements have been prepared as if MedCareers had always been the reporting company and, on the share exchange date, changed its name and reorganized its capital. The Company operates a website for nurses, nursing schools and nurses organizations which enables the respective entities to communicate more easily and efficiently with their members.
Significant Accounting Policies:
The Company’s management selects accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and adopts methods for their application. The application of accounting principles requires the estimating, matching and timing of revenue and expense. The accounting policies used conform to generally accepted accounting principles which have been consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements.
The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.
Basis of Presentation:
The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Principles of Consolidation:
The financial statements include the accounts of MedCareers Group, Inc. as well as Nurses Lounge, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated. All amounts are presented in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated.
Development Stage Company:
The Company complies with ASC No. 915-10 for its characterization of the Company as development stage.
F-7 |
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The carrying amount approximates fair market value.
Fixed Assets:
Fixed assets are carried at cost. Depreciation is provided over each asset’s estimated useful life. Upon retirement and disposal, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the determination of the net income. Additions and significant improvements are capitalized and depreciated.
Advertising Costs:
The Company incurred no advertising costs for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012.
Income Taxes:
Income from the corporation is taxed at regular corporate rates per the Internal Revenue Code. Although the Company has tax loss carry-forwards (see Note 7), there is uncertainty as to utilization prior to their expiration. Accordingly, the future income tax asset amounts have been fully reserved by a valuation allowance.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized when items of income and expense are recognized in the financial statements in different periods than when recognized in the tax return. Deferred tax assets arise when expenses are recognized in the financial statements before the tax returns or when income items are recognized in the tax return prior to the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also arise when operating losses or tax credits are available to offset tax payments due in future years. Deferred tax liabilities arise when income items are recognized in the financial statements before the tax returns or when expenses are recognized in the tax return prior to the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Use of Estimates:
In order to prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management must make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and determine whether contingent assets and liabilities, if any, are disclosed in the financial statements. The ultimate resolution of issues requiring these estimates and assumptions could differ significantly from resolution currently anticipated by management and on which the financial statements are based.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
Pursuant to ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet as of January 31, 2013. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, advances and notes payable. The Company considers the carrying value of such amounts in the financial statements to approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
F-8 |
Revenue Recognition:
Revenue from contracts for consulting services with fees based on time and materials or cost-plus are recognized as the services are performed and amounts are earned. The Company considers amounts to be earned once evidence of an arrangement has been obtained, services are delivered, fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. For contracts with fixed fees, the Company recognizes revenues as amounts become billable in accordance with contract terms, provided the billable amounts are not contingent, are consistent with the services delivered, and are earned. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605-10, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", (formerly Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”)). Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or service has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and receipt of payment is probable.
Earnings per Common Share:
Earnings (loss) per share are calculated in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earnings (loss) per share. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of stock options and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation in periods where the Company has incurred a net loss, as their effect would be considered anti-dilutive.
There were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents as of January 31, 2013, therefore basic earnings per share equals diluted earnings per share for the year ended January 31, 2013. The Company had 9,743,000 options outstanding at January 31, 2013. As the Company incurred a net loss during the year ended January 31, 2013, the basic and diluted loss per common share is the same amount, as any common stock equivalents would be considered anti-dilutive.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
NOTE 2 – DEFERRED FEES
Deferred fees represent stock issued as fees to make or extend notes payable. Stock issued was valued at the date of issue and amortized over the term of the loan. Deferred fees at January 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:
2013 | 2012 | |||||||
Deferred Fees | $ | 614,170 | $ | 304,200 | ||||
Less: Accumulated Amortization | (521,953 | ) | (190,367 | ) | ||||

The Company has incurred cumulative losses through January 31, 2013 of $4,755,621 and has a working capital deficit at January 31, 2013 of $774,716.
Historically, revenues have not been sufficient to cover operating costs that would permit the Company to continue as a going concern. The potential proceeds from the sale of common stock and other contemplated debt and equity financing, and increases in operating revenues from new development and business acquisitions might enable MedCareers to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be able to complete any debt or equity financing, or develop or acquire one or more business interests on terms favorable to it. MedCareers’ financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 9 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
NOTE 10 – LOSS ON RECAPITALIZATION
On November 5, 2010, the Company effected a recapitalization by issuing 24,000,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for 100% of Nurses Lounge, Inc. (“Nurses Lounge”), a Texas corporation. As a result of the share exchange, Nurses Lounge became the wholly-owned subsidiary of MedCareers. Additionally, the shareholders of Nurses Lounge owned a majority of the voting stock of MedCareers. The transaction was regarded as a reverse merger whereby Nurses Lounge was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its shareholders retained control of MedCareers after the exchange, although MedCareers is the legal parent company. The share exchange was treated as a recapitalization of MedCareers. As such, Nurses Lounge (and its historical financial statements) is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements have been prepared as if MedCareers had always been the reporting company and, on the share exchange date, changed its name and reorganized its capital The loss on recapitalization of $223,454 represents the adjustment relating to the value recorded in the equity section of MedCareers pre-recapitalization and the value assigned to it upon recapitalization.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure on Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of January 31, 2011. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) who concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have identified the following weaknesses in our internal controls:
Reliance upon independent financial reporting consultants for review of critical accounting areas and disclosures and material non-standard transaction
Lack of sufficient accounting staff which results in a lack of segregation of duties necessary for a good system of internal control.
In order to remedy our existing internal control deficiencies, as our finances allow, we will hire additional accounting staff.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework at January 31, 2013. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that, as of January 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of limited staff and a need for a full time chief financial officer. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
33 |
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III
Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance
The following table lists the names and ages of the executive officers and director of the Company. The director(s) will continue to serve until the next annual shareholders meeting, or until their successors are elected and qualified. All officers serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Garret Armes
|
28 | Vice President of Nurses Lounge | November 18, 2009 | |||
Timothy Armes. Mr. Armes has served as President and Chief Executive Officer of Medcareers since August 2011 and of Nurses Lounge since September 2002. From February 2011 to August 2011, Mr. Armes served as the Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Since August 2011, Mr. Armes has served as the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Mr. Armes began his career in recruiting when he entered the career fair business in 1987. In 1992 Mr. Armes launched one of the first online job bulletin boards which eventually grew into jobs.com. As CEO of Jobs.com he raised over 100 million dollars and grew it into one of the top employment web sites before leaving the company in May of 2000. Prior to entering the career fair business, Mr. Armes began his career as an auditor for Ernst and Young and then as a real estate workout specialist with different firms in the mid 1980’s. Mr. Armes obtained a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Accounting from the University of Texas in 1980 and is a Certified Public Accountant.
Director Qualifications:
The Company believes that Mr. Armes is well qualified to serve as a Director of the Company because of his significant experience working with and building Nurses Lounge (which since November 2010, has been our wholly-owned operating subsidiary); his prior experience growing Jobs.com, and his financial and accounting background.
Garret Armes. Has served as the Vice President of Nurses Lounge since November 18, 2010 and as Vice President of Nurses Lounge since the launch of the Nurses Lounge network in March,2009. Garret is a 2008 graduate of the University of North Texas with a Bachelor of Arts in Advertising and a Minor in Marketing. Upon graduation Garret assumed several responsibilities with Nurses Lounge. When Nurses Lounge magazine was in circulation he created in-house ads, wrote articles, assisted with layout, and managed the distribution lists. Garret led the transition of the website from a portal into a professional network for nurses including design and re-launching of the site as well as the day-to-day administration. Responsibilities range from creating banner ads, writing articles and press releases, sales and support, web development and design, as well as lead community administrator. Garret Armes is the son of Timothy Armes.
Corporate Governance
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
35 |
In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Timothy Armes), is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company's financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors reviews the Company's internal accounting controls, practices and policies.
Committees of the Board
Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. The Board of Directors believes that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the sole director.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our Board of Directors has determined that we do not have an independent board member that qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a Board member that qualifies as "independent" as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act.
We believe that our sole director is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The sole director does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee because management believes that the functions of an audit committee can be adequately performed by the sole director. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the stage of our development and the fact that we have not generated any positive cash flows from operations to date.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our sole director and our executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
1. | any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
2. | any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
3. | being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or |
4. | being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated. |
Board Meetings and Annual Meeting
During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, our Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Timothy Armes) did not meet or hold any formal meetings. We did not hold an annual meeting in 2013. In the absence of formal board meetings, the Board conducted all of its business and approved all corporate actions during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 by the unanimous written consent of its sole director.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal, business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or directors expand in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.
36 |
Shareholder Proposals
Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. The sole director believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our Chief Executive Officer, at the address appearing on the first page of this report.

The Company claims an exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) since the foregoing issuances and grants did not involve a public offering, the recipients took the shares and options for investment and not resale, the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer, and the recipients were either (a) “accredited investors” and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Act. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances and the Company paid no underwriting discounts or commissions.
Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions
Given our small size and limited financial resources, we had not adopted formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions, such as those described above, with our executive officers, director(s) and significant stockholders. However, the Company makes it a practice of having its Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. Armes) approve and ratify all related party transactions. In connection with such approval and ratification, the Board of Directors takes into account several factors, including their fiduciary duties to the Company; the relationships of the related parties to the Company; the material facts underlying each transaction; the anticipated benefits to the Company and related costs associated with such benefits; whether comparable products or services are available; and the terms the Company could receive from an unrelated third party.
We intend to establish formal policies and procedures in the future, once we have sufficient resources and have appointed additional directors, so that such transactions will be subject to the review, approval or ratification of our Board of Directors, or an appropriate committee thereof. On a moving forward basis, the Board of Directors will continue to approve any related party transaction based on the criteria set forth above.
Director Independence
We currently only have one director, Timothy Armes, who is not independent. We have no current plans to appoint any independent directors.
