Under our Public Offering (the “Offering”), we are offering for sale a total of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a fixed price of $0.30 per share for the duration of this Offering. There is no minimum number of shares that must be sold by us for the Offering to proceed, and we will retain the proceeds from the sale of any of the offered shares. The Offering is being conducted on a self-underwritten, best efforts basis, which means our Officers and Directors, will attempt to sell the shares directly to friends, family members and business acquaintances. Our Officers and Directors will not receive commission or any other remuneration any such sales. In offering the securities on our behalf, our Officers and Directors will rely on the safe harbor from broker-dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

The shares will be offered for sale at a fixed price of $0.30 per share for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of this prospectus, unless extended by our Board of Directors for an additional 90 days. If all of the shares offered by us are purchased, the gross proceeds to us will be $3,000,000.  However, since the Offering is being conducted on a “best-efforts” basis, there is no minimum number of shares that must be sold, meaning the Company shall retain any proceeds from the sale of the shares sold hereunder. Accordingly, all funds raised hereunder will become immediately available to the Company and will be used in accordance with the Company’s intended “Use of Proceeds” as set forth herein, investors are advised that they will not be entitled to a refund and could lose their entire investment.

 

Under the Resale Offering, existing shareholders of the Company are offering for sale a total of 7,912,660 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a fixed price of $0.30 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. Prior to being quoted on the OTCBB, the Selling Shareholders may sell their shares in private transactions to other individuals. If all of the shares offered by the Selling Shareholders under the Resale Prospectus are purchased, the gross proceeds will be $2,373,798. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares by the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the resale of the shares.

Company Overview

 

KM Wedding Events Management, Inc. (the “Company” or “KM”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 24, 2012.

 

On February 14, 2013, KM entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with KM Matrimony Pvt Ltd, a company incorporated under the 1956 Companies Act of India (“KM India”), pursuant to which KM agreed to purchase ten million (10,000,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a price of 11 Indian Rupees (approximately $0.21 USD) per share for an aggregate purchase price of up to two million one hundred thousand dollars ($2,100,000 USD) dollars. As of January 16, 2014, pursuant to the above agreement, KM has purchased 1,393,127 shares at 11 Rupees per share ($0.201 USD at the time of the sale) in KM India on April 3, 2013 for $280,000 USD. A true and correct copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.5 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On February 14, 2013, KM entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of KM India, comprised of Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan, Mrs. Meera Nagarajan, Mr. Sridhar Kalyanasundaram, Mr. Vijaya Bhaskar Venkatesan and Mrs. Nithya Vijaya Baskar, pursuant to which KM shall purchase Three Million One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (3,150,000) shares of KM India’s common stock from Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan, Mrs. Meera Nagarajan, Mr. Sridhar Kalyanasundaram, Mr. Vijaya Bhaskar Venkatesan and Mrs. Nithya Vijaya Baskar payable in two tranches as follows: (i) Tranche A: One Million One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (1,150,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a purchase price of 11 Indian Rupees ($0.21 USD) per share (“Tranche A”); and, (ii) Tranche B: Two Million (2,000,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a purchase price equal to the fair market value of KM India’s shares at the time of purchase (“Tranche B”). As of January 16, 2014, KM has purchased 1,120,018 shares in KM India on April 26, 2013 from Tranche A for an aggregate of $229,000 USD from two of the shareholders of KM India viz. Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan (562,455 shares for $115,000 USD) and Mrs. Meera Nagarajan (557,564 shares for $114,000 USD). The remaining Tranche A shares and the Tranche B shares have to be sold within 3 years from February 14, 2013. A true and correct copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 and is incorporated herein by reference. 

 

As a result of the Stock Purchase Agreements referenced above, KM now carries on the business of KM India as its primary business and KM India is a subsidiary of KM. KM currently holds 55.32% of KM India.

 

KM India has been involved in the wedding services industry in South India since 2004. KM is the brand, which is a short form for ‘Kalyana Malai’ meaning ‘Wedding Garland’ in South Indian language. The services offered by KM India include Matrimonial (Matchmaking) Services and Wedding Services. Unless otherwise specified, KM and KM India shall hereinafter be collectively referred to as “KM” or the “Company”.

 

KM’s Matrimonial Services include matchmaking and partner identification, through multiple delivery channels viz. print and visual media, website, physical centers and events. The Wedding Services of KM covers 15 different services, including food and beverages, guest services, decorations, event planning and event management. In order to increase the Wedding Services business, KM intends to lease and/or own wedding halls (physical infrastructures where a wedding is conducted, similar to banquet halls of hotels) and provide Wedding Services for the weddings conducted in these halls.

 

KM currently focuses on the geographic locations of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh (two of the Southern States in India). We believe that the Company is well positioned to exploit the potential of the Wedding Services market because of its presence in this market since 2004 and respected brand name. The Company is also planning to expand its services in the United States during 2014. KM’s target customers include the Indian high-income group, higher middle-income group, and other affluent individuals both in the U.S. and India. This segment, being upwardly mobile and comfort and service focused, is the right target group for the business positioning of KM.

 

KM India has been servicing the Indian Diaspora in the United States through its website since 2004 which was followed up by Community Meets (events focused on bringing together individuals who are seeking a life partner and who share similar backgrounds (e.g. profession, socio-economic background, religion, etc.) conducted during the fiscal year 2011 in 5 cities (New York City, South Windsor (Connecticut), Boston, Houston & San Antonio) which was attended by around 1,200 prospective matrimonial customers. In October 2013, KM India also filmed for Sun TV across 6 different US cities (New York, South Windsor Connecticut), New Brunswick, San Jose, Dallas and Houston), which was attended by over 5,400 South Indian community members. KM’s TV show is a 30 minute matrimonial-related program produced by KM and telecast once a week by Sun TV. The TV program introduces profiles of individuals seeking to be matched and also incorporates an entertainment based “debate show” which covers various “topics of social impact” which are discussed and debated upon by professionals & experts.

7
 

 

Based on the experience gained from the above activities, KM believes that the Indian Diaspora in the United States presents a lucrative market that requires Matrimonial and Wedding Services offered by KM but also requires a customized and focused approach for exploiting the same. The plan for exploring this business opportunity includes setting up offices in the U.S. (fiscal 2014), providing Wedding Services for weddings to be conducted in India by Indians in the U.S. (fiscal 2014), launching a customized website for Matrimonial Services in the U.S. market (fiscal 2015) and providing Wedding Services for conducting weddings locally in the United States (fiscal 2016-17). 

 

We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. For as long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to comply with the requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and the exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We intend to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. For a description of the qualifications and other requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and certain elections that we have made due to our status as an emerging growth company, see “We are an “Emerging Growth Company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to Emerging Growth Companies will make our Common Stock less attractive to Investors” on Page 12 of this prospectus.

SUMMARY OF THIS OFFERING

 

The Issuer KM Wedding Events Management, Inc.
   
Securities being offered Up to 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, our Common Stock is described in further detail in the section of this prospectus titled “DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES – Common Stock.”
   
Offering Type The Offering is being conducted on a self-underwritten, best efforts basis, there is no minimum number of shares that must be sold by us for the Offering to proceed, and we will retain the proceeds from the sale of any of the offered shares.
   
Per Share Price $0.30
   
No Revocation Once you submit a Subscription Agreement and the Company accepts it, you may not revoke or change your subscription or request a refund of monies paid. All accepted subscriptions are irrevocable, even if you subsequently learn information about us that you consider to be materially unfavorable.
   
No Public Market

There is no public market for our Common Stock. We cannot give any assurance that the shares being offered will have a market value, or that they can be resold at the offered price if and when an active secondary market might develop, or that a public market for our securities may be sustained even if developed. The absence of a public market for our stock will make it difficult to sell your shares.

 

We intend to apply to the OTCBB, through a market maker that is a licensed broker dealer, to allow the trading of our Common Stock upon our becoming a reporting entity under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

   
Duration of Offering The Offering shall continue until all shares offered hereunder have been sold or until the expiration of a 180 day period from the date of effectiveness of this Registration Statement, unless such period is extended by our Board of Directors.
   
Number of Shares Outstanding Before the Offering

As of the date of this Registration Statement there are 41,646,160 shares of Common Stock, and 0 shares of Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding.

 

Upon the completion of the Offering under this Registration Statement, there will be 51,646,160 shares of Common Stock outstanding provided all of the shares offered hereby are sold.

   
Registration Costs We estimate our total costs relating to the registration herein shall be approximately $85,000.
   
Net Proceeds to the Company

The Company is offering 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value and at an offering price of $0.30 per Share for maximum net proceeds to the Company of $3,000,000. The full subscription price will be payable at the time of subscription and any such funds received from subscribers in this Offering will be released to the Company when subscriptions are received and accepted.

 

Substantial expenditures will be required to enable the Company to scale up its operations and quality of services. While the Company believes that if all shares offered hereunder are sold, the net proceeds should be sufficient to permit the Company to continue operations and meet its capital requirements for approximately twelve (12) months, it is anticipated that the Company may need to raise additional capital to maintain operations, facilitate future growth and support its long-term growth initiatives. In addition, if not all of the Shares offered hereunder are sold, the Company will need to obtain substantial additional funds much sooner, and possibly within twelve (12) months after this Offering to grow and expand its operations. Therefore, it is likely that the Company would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private sales of its debt or equity securities to fund its growth plans.

 

There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts can generate availability of additional funds when needed, or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to curtail its expansion plans, which will adversely affect its revenue and profitability.

 

   

9
 

 

 

Use of Proceeds If all of the shares of Common Stock offered hereunder are sold, the net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares will be approximately $3,000,000. The offering proceeds will be utilized mainly for capital expenditures relating the growth and expansion of the Company’s business in the United States.
   
Risk Factors The Securities offered hereby involve a high degree of risk and immediate substantial dilution, and therefore, should not be purchased by anyone who cannot afford the loss of his or her entire investment.  Prospective investors should carefully review and consider the factors set forth in the section of this Registration Statement entitled “Risk Factors,” as well as the other information set forth herein before subscribing for any of the shares offered hereby.

  

10
 

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our Common Stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. Currently, shares of our Common Stock are not publicly traded. In the event that shares of our Common Stock become publicly traded, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. In the event our Common Stock fails to become publicly traded you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

RISKS RELATED TO THE OFFERING

 

As there is no minimum for our Offering, if only a few persons purchase shares they will lose their investment.

 

There shall be no minimum amount of proceeds to be received by the Company upon the sale of the shares offered hereunder. After the payment of expenses, including attorney and accounting fees, general and administrative expenses, the retirement of certain debt of the Company and the marketing and distribution of the Company’s existing products, the Company may have only limited reserves allocated for contingencies. In the event additional expenses are incurred in addition to those currently budgeted for, this may have a material adverse impact on the business and operations of the Company.

 

We are selling this Offering without an underwriter and may be unable to sell any shares.

 

This Offering is self-underwritten, that is, we are not going to engage the services of an underwriter to sell the shares. We intend to sell our shares through our Founder and Chairman, who will receive no commissions or other remuneration from any sales made hereunder. He will offer the shares to friends, family members, and business associates; however, there is no guarantee that he will be able to sell any of the shares. Unless he is successful in selling all of the shares and we receive the maximum amount of proceeds from this Offering, we may have to seek alternative financing to implement our plan of operations.

 

You may have limited access to information regarding our business because we are a limited reporting company exempt from many regulatory requirements and our obligations to file periodic reports with the SEC could be automatically suspended under certain circumstances.

 

The Company will not become a fully reporting company, but rather, will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of effectiveness of our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we will be required to file periodic reports with the SEC, which will be immediately available to the public for inspection and copying (see “Where You Can Find More Information” elsewhere in this prospectus). Except during the year that our registration statement becomes effective, these reporting obligations may be automatically suspended under Section 15(d) if we have less than 300 shareholders. If this occurs after the year in which our registration statement becomes effective, we will no longer be obligated to file periodic reports with the SEC and your access to our business information would then be even more restricted; however, that filing obligation will generally apply even if our reporting obligations have been suspended automatically under section 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the due date for the Form 10-K. After that fiscal year and provided the Company has less than 300 shareholders, the Company is not required to file these reports. If the reports are not filed, the investors will have reduced visibility as to the Company and its financial condition.

 

In addition, as a filer subject to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company is not required to prepare proxy or information statements, and our common stock will not be subject to the protection of the ongoing private regulations. Additionally, the Company will be subject to only limited portions of the tender offer rules, and our officers, directors, and more than ten (10%) percent shareholders are not required to file beneficial ownership reports about their holdings in our Company, and will not be subject to the short-swing profit recovery provisions of the Exchange Act. Further, more than five percent (5%) holders of classes of our equity securities will not be required to report information about their ownership positions in the securities. This means that your access to information regarding our business will be limited.

 

Furthermore, as long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We intend to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”

11
 

 

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of: (A) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement, (B) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.0 billion or more, (C) the date that we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (D) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

 

Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, defines a “smaller reporting company” as an issuer that is not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer), or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent that is not a smaller reporting company and that:

 

·Had a public float of less than $ 75 million as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter, computed by multiplying the aggregate worldwide number of shares of its voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates by the price at which the common equity was last sold, or the average of the bid and asked prices of common equity, in the principal market for the common equity; or

 

·In the case of an initial registration statement under the Securities Act or Exchange Act for shares of its common equity, had a public float of less than $75 million as of a date within 30 days of the date of the filing of the registration statement, computed by multiplying the aggregate worldwide number of such shares held by non-affiliates before the registration plus, in the case of a Securities Act registration statement, the number of such shares included in the registration statement by the estimated public offering price of the shares; or

 

·In the case of an issuer whose public float as calculated under paragraph (1) or (2) of this definition was zero, had annual revenues of less than $50 million during the most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available.

 

We qualify as a smaller reporting company, and so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we benefit from the same exemptions and exclusions as an emerging growth company. In the event that we cease to be an emerging growth company as a result of a lapse of the five year period, but continue to be a smaller reporting company, we would continue to be subject to the exemptions available to emerging growth companies until such time as we were no longer a smaller reporting company.

 

After, and if ever, we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” we expect to incur significant additional expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with those requirements applicable to companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

We are an “Emerging Growth Company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to Emerging Growth Companies will make our Common Stock less attractive to Investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

 

Under the JOBS Act, “emerging growth companies” can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to “opt out” of such extended transition period and, therefore, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

 

You may be liable for damages if you breach the Subscription Agreement

 

The Company is charged with the burden of determining the suitability of an investor to invest in the Company. Nonetheless, the Subscription Agreement attached to this Offering requires the investors to represent, among other things, that they meet certain requirements and understand the risks associated with an investment in our shares and an investment in us, and that they can afford to lose all of the money they invest in us. Any investor who later makes a claim against us that is inconsistent with the representations in the Subscription Agreement will be in breach of the Subscription Agreement and will be liable for any damages that we, our affiliates and agents suffer as a result of such breach, including the cost of a successful defense against a lawsuit of the kind discussed above. Accordingly, members should take the representations in the Subscription Agreement seriously and not invest in us if they are not comfortable with the investment in us or will suffer financially or emotionally if they lose their investment.

Valuation of Securities Offered

 

The Company has arbitrarily determined the offering price of the shares. Therefore, purchasers of the shares may be exposed to a substantial risk of a decline in the market value of the Securities after the Offering should a market develop.

 

Purchasers in this Offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of their investment.

 

The Offering price of our Common Stock of $0.30 is substantially higher than the $0.056 net tangible book value per share of our outstanding Common Stock immediately after the Offering, assuming that 100% of the shares offered hereunder are sold. Therefore, if you purchase shares of our Common Stock in this Offering at a price of $0.30, you will experience immediate dilution of $0.241 per share, the difference between the price per share you pay for our Common Stock and its net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2013, after giving effect to the issuance of shares of our Common Stock in this Offering. This dilution is due in part to our arbitrary determination of the Offering price of the shares being offered.  This dilution is also a result of the lower book value of shares of our Common Stock held by our existing stockholders. Additionally, if we issue additional shares of our Common Stock in the future, you may experience further dilution.

 

As a result of the concurrent offering by the Company and the Selling Shareholders, the Company may not be able to sell the shares being offered by us which will reduce the amount of capital available for our operations.

 

The Company and Selling Shareholders will be offering shares of the Company’s common stock at the same time, however, there are no Selling Shareholders who will also be selling shares on behalf of the Company. The sale of shares by the Selling Shareholders is not contingent upon the Company selling a minimum number of its shares. Due to the concurrent offering, the Company and Selling Shareholders may be competing for potential investors. While we do not believe we will be approaching the same potential investors, we may inadvertently do so and if there is a conflict, it is possible that we may not be able to fully subscribe our Offering. In that event, the overall proceeds to the Company from our Offering may be decreased which would decrease the amount of capital available for our business operations. Further, sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock by the Selling Shareholders could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. 

 

RISKS RELATED TO THE BUSINESS

 

The market for wedding services is highly competitive, and competition is increasing as more companies, many that are larger and have greater resources than we do, are able to capture the market from us. Further, considering that the industry is largely unorganized, numerous small players can pose stiff competition to us by underpricing the types of services that we provide.

        

In regards to the wedding matchmaking services, there are various online matrimonial providers who are large players and who have already attained significant operations compared to us. These providers have greater financial back up, investments in technology, resources and market infrastructure to offer competitive service rates that may pose significant challenges to us. We also compete with numerous small and mid-size online companies, and unorganized traditional brick and mortar service providers who may offer services at cheaper price points than us which may have an adverse effect on our business, including increased price competition and loss of potential customers.

          

Our ability to grow our business is dependent on our ability to compete effectively against other providers and requires capital investment in marketing and advertisement. Many existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories and greater market share and brand recognition than we do. In addition, many of our existing and potential competitors are substantially larger than we are and may already have or could develop substantially greater financial and other resources than we have. We may also face price competition that results in decreases in the purchase and use of our products and services. To stay competitive, we may have to increase the incentives that we offer to our customers and decrease the prices of our products and services, which could adversely affect our operating results and profitability.

 

In regards to wedding services, we may face stiff price competition from established hotel chains who rent their banquet halls directly to consumers and other wedding services companies. Considering the industry is largely unorganized, we might also face stiff price competition from small time players including wedding catering contractors who might offer similar service offerings at a price point much lower than us. In such an event our business and profitability may be substantially affected.

 

We rely on our relationships with wedding infrastructure owners who lease out their land or buildings for the purpose of being used as a wedding infrastructure. The financial position of the Company may be adversely affected if we fail to obtain a good wedding infrastructure space at a fair lease rental value and fail to achieve optimum occupancy of these infrastructures.

 

The Company relies on its relationships with wedding infrastructure owners who lease out their halls and buildings for an annual lease rental for the purpose of being used as a wedding infrastructure. The financial position of the Company may be adversely affected if we fail to obtain suitable wedding halls. Even if we are able to obtain suitable wedding halls, we need to ensure optimum occupancy of these infrastructures; otherwise the business may be significantly affected.

 

13
 

The wedding industry is highly dependent on social structure and practices. Any major change in the same will adversely impact the business and thus the financial performance of the Company.

 

The wedding services industry is highly dependent on the social structure, religious practices and number of guest invites. Any major change in the same by the consumers will adversely impact the business and thus the financial performance of the Company.

 

Our business depends significantly on the market recognition of our Founder & Chairman, who is our brand ambassador, and if we are not able to maintain or enhance our brand recognition, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

 

In the event of the demise of our Founder and Chairman, Mr. Venkatesan (a.k.a Mr. Mohan), who is the brand ambassador and face of the Company, or any accident or injury or ill health caused to him, the Company may not be able to maintain its business and brand recognition, or enhance its brand appeal. This could significantly affect our business and operations.

 

Our ability to maintain our competitive position and to implement our business strategy is dependent to a significant extent on the performance of our senior management team and other key functional personnel.

 

We depend on our current senior management for the implementation of our strategy and the operation of our day-to-day activities. Furthermore, relationships of members of senior management are important to the conduct of our business. Competition for experienced management personnel in the wedding services industry is intense, the pool of qualified candidates is limited, and we may not be able to retain the services of our senior executives or key personnel or attract and retain high-quality senior executives or key personnel in the future. Consequently, there can be no assurance that these individuals will continue to make their services available to us in the future. Any significant loss of senior management or key personnel could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

In addition, if any member of our senior management team or any of our other key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may consequently lose our proprietary know-how.

 

Our key management personnel have entered into confidentiality and/or non-competition agreements with us. However, if any disputes arise between any of our key management personnel and us, it may be difficult for us to enforce these agreements.

 

Our profitability is substantially dependent on scalability of wedding services which may be negatively affected by various factors.

 

Our profit margin is largely a function of service fees charged to our customers. These fees are affected by a number of factors, including:

 

·Our customer’s perception of our ability to add value through our services;
·The introduction of better products or services by our competitors;
·The stiff pricing policies of our competitors;
·General economic recessionary conditions;
·The increase in input cost of materials which we may not be able to pass on to the customers; and
·Increase in lease rental costs charged by wedding infrastructure owners.

 

If our service fees are not properly priced, our revenue will decline and we will not be able to sustain our profit margin, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

 

We have entered into outsourcing and other agreements related to certain business operations, and any difficulties experienced in these arrangements could result in additional expense, loss of customers , and revenue or an interruption of our services.

 

We have entered into numerous outsourcing agreements with third parties to provide turnkey wedding event management services to our customers. As a result, we must rely on third parties over which we have limited control, to perform certain of our operations and, in the majority of cases, to interface with our customers. If these third parties are unable to perform to our requirement of high quality services we may be forced to pursue alternative strategies to provide these services, which could result in delays, interruptions, additional expenses to us and loss of customers. This may require us to pursue new third-party relationships. If we are unable to complete a transition to a new provider on a timely basis, or at all, we could be forced to temporarily or permanently discontinue certain services, which could disrupt services to our customers and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

14
 

 

The inability to maintain or strengthen our brand may reduce our ability to retain and attract customers, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

 

The nature of the industry requires continuous efforts to increase brand awareness among our consumers. This will be an important part of our strategy to grow our business. Developing, promoting and maintaining our brand and image requires a consistent capital investment and expense, and this investment in our brand and image may not be successful. If we fail to develop, promote and maintain our brand and image, we may not be able to grow our customer base and our financial and operational results may suffer.

 

If we lose key personnel or are unable to attract additional qualified personnel as we grow, our business could be adversely affected.

 

The wedding services business is highly labor intensive and requires constant efforts on training. We depend on the ability and experience of a number of our key personnel who have substantial experience in our line of operations. It is possible that the loss of the services of one or a combination of our senior executives or key managers would have an adverse effect on our operations. Our success also depends on our ability to continue to attract, train, manage and retain other qualified management and skilled personnel as we grow, and we may be unable to attract, manage or retain such personnel. Due to the competitive nature of our industry, we may also be vulnerable to attempts by our competitors to hire our employees.

 

Business, political and economic factors may affect our operations, the manner in which we conduct our business and our rate of growth.

 

The growth rate of the Indian economy has dropped over the last two years and unemployment rates are rising. If economic conditions and unemployment rates continue to deteriorate or do not improve, our target consumer base may be negatively affected due to the generally lower incomes of the customers. In addition, a large proportion of our target customers work in industries that may be disproportionately affectedby a downturn in the Indian economy, which may limit their disposable incomes and consequently, their discretionary spending. Stagnant economic growth and high unemployment are likely to negatively affect our customers' ability to pay for our services. The resulting impact of such economic conditions on our customers and on consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on demand for our services and on our business, financial condition and operating results.

 

If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property and brand image we may lose a valuable competitive advantage or be forced to incur costly litigation to protect our rights.

 

Our success depends in part on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and brand image. Currently, the Company has the right to utilize certain intellectual property comprising of wedding design, catering knowhow, talent pool, skilled labor, vendor supply chain network, wedding hall owner’s network, sourcing strategy, proprietary recipe of signature dishes, etc. It is possible that third parties will infringe these rights and as a result, the Company may be forced to spend significant amounts of time or money to defend these rights. Further, the Company has not yet obtained trademark protection of the KM brand. Securing these protections will be material to our business as it will help protect our ideas and image from use by competitors with a similar business model. 

 

Our failure to anticipate rapid changes in competition may negatively affect demand for our services in the marketplace.

 

The wedding services market may be subject to rapid and significant business changes. We expect that new services and concepts applicable to our industry will emerge in the future, and these new services and concepts may be superior to our services. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to develop new services according to changing business conditions. These initiatives are inherently risky, and they may not be successful or may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s business is affected by various regulations and compliance with stringent health, safety and environmental laws is expected to be significant. The failure to comply with existing and new health, safety and environmental laws could adversely affect our results of operations.

 

A central component of our wedding service is catering, which is subject to Food Regulations. The Indian food and processing industry is governed by multiple legislations. Dealing with an array of food laws and governing bodies is also a challenge. In addition, we are also subject to regulations relating to local land use controls, permits planning permission, fire and safety standards. We could be subject to substantial civil and criminal liability and other regulatory consequences in the event that health, safety or environmental hazards were to be found. We may be the subject of consumer interest litigation in India relating to allegations of such hazards, as well as in cases having potential criminal and civil liability filed by regulatory authorities. If such cases are determined against us, there could be an adverse effect on our brand reputation, business and operations.

 

We and some of our third-party service providers are susceptible to the occurrence of catastrophic events, which could impair our ability to operate our business.

 

We and some of the third-party service providers on which we rely are vulnerable to damage from catastrophic events, such as power loss, natural disasters, terrorism, fires, accidents and similar events beyond our control. If we or our third-party service providers experience any of these events, our services to the customers may not function properly, we may lose customers and revenues, and we may have difficulty attracting new customers, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the business interruption insurance we carry may not cover any or all of the losses we may experience as a result of such events. Any significant losses that are not covered by insurance could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

15
 

 

Our business and activities will be regulated by the Competition Act, 2002 (India).

 

The Parliament of India enacted the Competition Act, 2002 (the “Competition Act”) for the purpose of preventing practices having an adverse effect on competition in the relevant market in India under the auspices of the Competition Commission of India (the “CCI”). Under the Competition Act, any arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause an appreciable adverse effect on competition is void and attracts substantial penalties. On March 4, 2011, the Government notified and brought into force the combination regulation (merger control) provisions under the Competition Act, effective from June 1, 2011. The combination regulation provisions require that acquisition of shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations which cross the prescribed asset and turnover-based thresholds shall be mandatorily notified to and pre-approved by the CCI. In addition, on May 11, 2011, the CCI issued the final Competition Commission of India (Procedure in regard to the transaction of business relating to combinations) Regulations, 2011 that sets out the mechanism for implementation of the combination regulation provisions under the Competition Act.

 

The effect of the Competition Act on the business environment in India is currently unclear. If we are affected, directly or indirectly, by any provision of the Competition Act, or its application or interpretation, including any enforcement proceedings initiated by the Competition Commission and any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the Competition Commission, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

 

Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law.

 

Our operating subsidiary, as an Indian company, will be subject to exchange controls that regulate investments in foreign currencies. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources for our business operations or acquisitions and other strategic transactions, and consequently could constrain our ability to obtain financings. In addition, we cannot assure you that the required approvals will be granted to us, even if granted within the normal time limits.

 

If we are not able to obtain further financing, our business operations may fail.

 

Substantial expenditures will be required to enable the Company to scale up its operations and quality of services. While the Company believes that if all shares offered hereunder are sold, the net proceeds should be sufficient to permit the Company to continue operations and meet its capital requirements for approximately twelve (12) months, it is anticipated that the Company may need to raise additional capital to maintain operations, facilitate future growth and support its long-term growth initiatives. In addition, if not all of the shares offered hereunder are sold, the Company will need to obtain substantial additional funds much sooner, and possibly within twelve (12) months after this Offering to grow and expand its operations. The Company’s established bank-financing arrangements will not be adequate. Therefore, it is likely that the Company would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private sales of its debt or equity securities to fund its growth plans.

 

There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts can generate availability of additional funds when needed, or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to curtail its expansion plans, which will adversely affect its revenue and profitability.

 

RISKS RELATED TO THE COMMON STOCK

 

The Company’s stock price may be volatile.

 

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

 

·products and services offered by the Company or its competitors;
·additions or departures of key personnel;
·the Company’s ability to execute its business plan;
·operating results that fall below expectations;
·industry developments;
·economic and other external factors; and
·period-to-period fluctuations in the Company’s financial results.

 

16
 

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

 

As a public company, we will incur substantial expenses.

 

Upon declared effectiveness of this Registration Statement by the SEC, we will become subject to the information and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. The U.S. securities laws require, among other things, review, audit, and public reporting of our financial results, business activities, and other matters. Recent SEC regulation, including regulation enacted as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has also substantially increased the accounting, legal, and other costs related to becoming and remaining an SEC reporting company. If we do not have current information about our Company available to market makers, they will not be able to trade our stock. The public company costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders, will cause our expenses to be higher than they would be if we were privately-held. These increased costs may be material and may include the hiring of additional employees and/or the retention of additional advisors and professionals. Our failure to comply with the federal securities laws could result in private or governmental legal action against us and/or our sole officer and director, which could have a detrimental effect on our business and finances, the value of our stock, and the ability of stockholders to resell their stock.

 

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

 

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that relate to the application of the SEC’s penny stock rules in trading our securities and require that a broker/dealer have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer, prior to recommending the investment. Prior to recommending speculative, low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker/dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative, low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker/dealers to recommend that their customers buy our Common Stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our Common Stock. Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for penny stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker/dealers may be willing to make a market in our Common Stock, reducing a shareholder’s ability to resell shares of our Common Stock.

 

We may be exposed to potential risks resulting from new requirements under section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

There are substantial penalties that could be imposed upon us if we fail to comply with all regulatory requirements. In particular, under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 we will be required, beginning with our fiscal year ending 2013 to include in our annual report our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of fiscal 2012. We have not yet completed our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We expect to incur additional expenses and diversion of management’s time as a result of performing the system and process evaluation, testing and remediation required in order to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements.

 

If a market for our Common Stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares.

 

A market for our Common Stock may never develop. We intend to contact an authorized OTC Bulletin Board market-maker for sponsorship of our securities on the OTC Bulletin Board. However, there is no guarantee that our shares will be traded on the Bulletin Board, or, if traded, a public market may not materialize. If our Common Stock is not traded on the Bulletin Board or if a public market for our Common Stock does not develop, investors may not be able to re-sell the shares of our Common Stock that they have purchased and may lose all of their investment.

 

The Company’s Common Stock may be deemed “penny stock”, which would make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares.

 

If a market develops and the price of the Company’s stock is below $5.00 per share, or the Company does not have $2,000,000 in net tangible assets, or is not listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System, among other conditions, the Company’s shares may be subject to a rule promulgated by the SEC that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Furthermore, if the price of the Company’s stock is below $5.00, and does not meet the conditions set forth above, sales of the Company’s stock in the secondary market will be subject to certain additional new rules promulgated by the SEC. These rules generally require, among other things, that brokers engaged in secondary trading of stock provide customers with written disclosure documents, monthly statements of the market value of penny stocks, disclosure of the bid and asked prices, and disclosure of the compensation to the broker-dealers and disclosure of the sales person working for the broker-dealer. These rules and regulations may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s securities, thereby limiting the liquidity of the Company’s securities. They may also affect the ability of purchasers in the Offering to resell their securities in the secondary market.

17
 

 

Additional issuances of our securities may result in immediate dilution to existing stockholders.

 

We are authorized to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 41,646,160 are currently issued and outstanding. Further, we are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share of which none are issued and outstanding.  Our Board of Directors has the authority to cause us to issue additional shares of Common Stock, and to determine the rights, preferences and privileges of our preferred stock, without consent of any of our stockholders. We may issue either common or preferred stock in connection with financing arrangements or otherwise. Any such issuances will result in immediate dilution to our existing stockholders’ interests, which will negatively affect the value of your shares.

 

The elimination of monetary liability against the Company’s existing and future directors, officers and employees under Delaware law and the existence of indemnification rights to the Company’s existing and future directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by the Company and may discourage lawsuits against the Company’s directors, officers and employees.

 

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation contain specific provisions that eliminate the liability of directors for monetary damages to the Company and the Company’s stockholders; further, the Company is prepared to give such indemnification to its existing and future directors and officers to the extent provided by Delaware law. The Company may also have contractual indemnification obligations under any employment agreements it may have with its officers and directors. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which the Company may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage the Company from bringing a lawsuit against existing and future directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by the Company’s stockholders against the Company’s existing and future directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholders.

 

Absence of Public Market

 

There has never been any established “public market” for shares of Common Stock of the Company, and no assurance can be given that any market for the Company's Common Stock will develop or be maintained. If a public market ever develops in the future, the sale of “unregistered” and “restricted” shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144 of the Act, may adversely affect the market price, if any, for the Company's shares and could impair the Company's ability to raise capital through the sale of its equity securities. In order to qualify for the resale of Common Stock under Rule 144, certain holding periods must be met and either legal opinions setting forth exemptions from the Act must be provided or registration statements must be in effect relating to such Common Stock. Further, there is no assurance that Rule 144 will be applicable to the Company and investors may not be able to rely on its provisions now or in the future.

 

Dividends

 

Payment of dividends on the Common Stock and Preferred Stock is within the discretion of the Board of Directors, is subject to state law, and will depend upon the Company's earnings, if any, its capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

As a result of there being no established public market for our shares, the offering price and other terms and conditions relative to our shares have been arbitrarily determined by the Company and do not bear any relationship to assets, earnings, book value, or any other objective criteria of value. In addition, no investment banker, appraiser, or other independent third party has been consulted concerning the offering price for the shares or the fairness of the offering price used for the shares.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The net proceeds to be realized from this Offering will be approximately $3,000,000 if all the shares being offered are sold. The Company's management estimates that if all shares are sold, the net proceeds to the Company should be sufficient to meet the Company's funding requirements for the next twelve (12) months after this Offering. Management anticipates the proceeds will generally be used as follows, and the estimated use of proceeds set forth below is not intended to represent the order of priority in which the proceeds may be applied:

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION; TERMS OF THE OFFERING

 

As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Company has 41,646,160 shares of Common Stock and 0 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Company is registering an additional 10,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for sale at the price of $0.30 per share. There is no arrangement to address the possible effect of the Offering on the price of the stock.

 

In connection with the Company’s selling efforts in the Offering, our officers and directors will not register as a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 15 of the Exchange Act, but rather will rely upon the “safe harbor” provisions of SEC Rule 3a4-1, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Generally speaking, Rule 3a4-1 provides an exemption from the broker-dealer registration requirements of the Exchange Act for persons associated with an issuer that participate in an Offering of the issuer’s securities. Our officers and directors are not subject to any statutory disqualification, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act. Our officers and directors will not be compensated in connection with their participation in the Offering by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in our securities. Our officers and directors are not, nor have been within the past 12 months, a broker or dealer, and they are not, nor have they been within the past 12 months, an associated person of a broker or dealer. At the end of the Offering, our officers and directors will continue to primarily perform substantial duties for the Company or on its behalf otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities. Our officers and directors have not participated in another offering of securities pursuant to the Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1 in the past 12 months. Additionally, they have not and will not participate in selling an offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months other than in reliance on the Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1(a)(4)(i) or (iii).

 

In order to comply with the applicable securities laws of certain states, the securities will be offered or sold in those states only if they have been registered or qualified for sale; an exemption from such registration or if qualification requirement is available and with which the Company has complied. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, the Company will be subject to applicable provisions, rules and regulations under the Exchange Act with regard to security transactions during the period of time when this Registration Statement is effective.

Terms of the Offering

 

The Offering shall continue until all shares offered hereunder have been sold or until the expiration of a 180 day period from the date of effectiveness of this Registration Statement, unless such period is extended by our Board of Directors. Subscribers shall make all checks payable to KM Wedding Events Management, Inc. for payment of their subscription price. Upon acceptance of a subscription for Shares and corresponding receipt of payment, all funds will be immediately available to the Company. Subscribers may not withdraw subscription funds deposited in the KM Wedding Events Management, Inc. account. After release to the Company, subscription funds not applied to Company expenses or obligations may be invested by the Company in short-term highly liquid investments, which may include uninsured depositories.

 

Penny Stock Regulation

 

Our Common Shares are not quoted on any stock exchange or quotation system. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange system).

 

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:

 

·contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
·contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties;
·contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including “bid” and “ask” prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
·contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
·defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and,
·contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format) as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with the following, prior to proceeding with any transaction in a penny stock:

 

·bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
·details of the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
·the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and,
·monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

 

Offering Period and Expiration Date

 

The Offering shall continue until all shares offered hereunder have been sold or until the expiration of a 180 day period from the date of effectiveness of this Registration Statement, unless such period is extended by our Board of Directors.

Procedures for Subscribing

 

Once the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, if you decide to subscribe for any shares in this Offering, you must:

 

1. receive, review and execute and deliver a Subscription Agreement; and

 

2. deliver a check or certified funds to us for acceptance or rejection.

20
 

 

Any potential investor will have ample time to review the Subscription Agreement, along with their counsel, prior to making any final investment decision. The Company shall only deliver such Subscription Documents upon request after a potential investor has had ample opportunity to review this prospectus. Further, we will not accept any money until this Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC.

 

Right To Reject Subscriptions

 

We have the right to accept or reject subscriptions in whole or in part, for any reason or for no reason. All monies from rejected subscriptions will be returned immediately by us to the subscriber, without interest or deductions.

 

Acceptance of Subscriptions

 

Once you submit a Subscription Agreement and the Company accepts it, you may not revoke or change your subscription or request a refund of monies paid. All accepted subscriptions are irrevocable, even if you subsequently learn information about us that you consider to be materially unfavorable. However, this does not limit your rescission rights under Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 in cases of material omissions or misstatements contained in this Registration Statement.

 

Upon the Company’s acceptance of a Subscription Agreement and receipt of full payment, the Company shall countersign the Subscription Agreement and issue a stock certificate along with a copy of the Subscription Agreement.

 

DILUTION

 

We intend to sell 10,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $0.30 per share. The following table sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock purchased from us, the total consideration paid and the price per share. The table assumes all 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be sold.

 

   Shares Issued  Total Consideration  Price Per Share
   Number of Shares  Percent  Amount  Percent
Existing Shareholders   41,646,160    80.64%  $1,072,808    26.34%  $0.001 - 0.20 
Purchasers of Shares   10,000,000    19.36%  $3,000,000    73.66%  $0.30 
Total   51,646,160    100.00%  $4,072,808    100.00%     

 

The following table sets forth the difference between the offering price of the shares of our Common Stock being offered by us, the net tangible book value per share, and the net tangible book value per share after giving effect to the Offering by us, assuming that 100%, 75% and 50% of the offered shares are sold. Net tangible book value per share represents the amount of total tangible assets less total liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding as of September 30, 2013. Totals may vary due to rounding.

If 100% of the offered shares are sold we will receive the maximum proceeds of $2,915,000, after offering expenses have been deducted. If 75% of the offered shares are sold we will receive $2,165,000 after offering expenses have been deducted. If 50% of the offered shares are sold we would receive $1,415,000 after offering expenses have been deducted. While the Company believes that if all shares offered hereunder are sold, the net proceeds should be sufficient to permit the Company to continue operations and meet its capital requirements for approximately twelve (12) months, it is anticipated that the Company may need to raise additional capital to maintain operations, facilitate future growth and support its long-term growth initiatives. In addition, if not all of the shares offered hereunder are sold, the Company will need to obtain substantial additional funds much sooner, and possibly within twelve (12) months after this Offering to grow and expand its operations. The Company’s established bank-financing arrangements will not be adequate. Therefore, it is likely that the Company would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private sales of its debt or equity securities to fund its growth plans.

21
 

 

There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts can generate availability of additional funds when needed, or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to curtail its expansion plans, which will adversely affect its revenue and profitability.

 

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

 

We currently rent an office located at 11501 Dublin Blvd., Suite 200, Dublin, CA 94568 at a yearly rental rate of $1,200. In the future, we may be required to seek additional office space. We do not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required space. We currently do not own any real property.

The total number of Shares authorized to be issued by the Company is Three Hundred Ten Million (310,000,000). This consists of Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) Shares of Common Stock, (the “Common Stock”) and Ten Million (10,000,000) Shares of Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). As of the date of this Registration Statement, there are 41,646,160 shares of Common Stock and 0 shares of Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding.

INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO REGISTRANT

 

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF KM WEDDING EVENTS MANAGEMENT INC. AND THE NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDED IN THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT. THIS DISCUSSION SUMMARIZES THE SIGNIFICANT FACTORS AFFECTING OUR OPERATING RESULTS, FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND LIQUIDITY AND CASH-FLOW SINCE INCEPTION.

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Company Overview

 

KM Wedding Events Management, Inc. (the “Company” or “KM”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 24, 2012.

 

On February 14, 2013, KM entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with KM Matrimony Pvt Ltd, a company incorporated under the 1956 Companies Act of India (“KM India”), pursuant to which KM agreed to purchase ten million (10,000,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a price of 11 Indian Rupees ($0.21 USD) per share for an aggregate purchase price of up to two million one hundred thousand dollars ($2,100,000 USD) dollars. As of January 16, 2014, pursuant to the above agreement, KM has purchased 1,393,127 shares at 11 Rupees per share ($0.201 USD at the time of the sale) in KM India on April 3, 2013 for $280,000 USD. A true and correct copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.5 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On February 14, 2013, KM entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of KM India, comprised of Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan, Mrs. Meera Nagarajan, Mr. Sridhar Kalyanasundaram, Mr. Vijaya Bhaskar Venkatesan and Mrs. Nithya Vijaya Baskar, pursuant to which KM shall purchase Three Million One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (3,150,000) shares of KM India’s common stock from Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan, Mrs. Meera Nagarajan, Mr. Sridhar Kalyanasundaram, Mr. Vijaya Bhaskar Venkatesan and Mrs. Nithya Vijaya Baskar payable in two tranches as follows: (i) Tranche A: One Million One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (1,150,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a purchase price of 11 Indian Rupees ($0.21 USD) per share (“Tranche A”); and, (ii) Tranche B: Two Million (2,000,000) shares of KM India’s common stock at a purchase price equal to the fair market value of KM India’s shares at the time of purchase (“Tranche B”). As of January 16, 2014, KM has purchased 1,120,018 shares in KM India on April 26, 2013 from Tranche A for an aggregate of $229,000 USD from two of the shareholders of KM India viz. Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan (562,455 shares for $115,000 USD) and Mrs. Meera Nagarajan (557,564 shares for $114,000 USD). The remaining Tranche A shares and the Tranche B shares have to be sold within 3 years from February 14, 2013. A true and correct copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

As a result of the Stock Purchase Agreements referenced above, KM now carries on the business of KM India as its primary business and KM India is a subsidiary of KM. KM currently holds 55.32% of KM India.

 

KM India has been involved in the wedding services industry in South India since 2004. KM is the brand, which is a short form for ‘Kalyana Malai’ meaning ‘Wedding Garland’ in South Indian language. The services offered by KM India include Matrimonial (Matchmaking) Services and Wedding Services. Unless otherwise specified, KM and KM India shall hereinafter be collectively referred to as “KM” or the “Company”.

 

KM’s Matrimonial Services include matchmaking and partner identification, through multiple delivery channels viz. print and visual media, website, physical centers and events. The Wedding Services of KM covers 15 different services, including food and beverages, guest services, decorations, event planning and event management. In order to increase the Wedding Services business, KM intends to lease and/or own wedding halls (physical infrastructures where a wedding is conducted, similar to banquet halls of hotels) and provide Wedding Services for the weddings conducted in these halls.

 

KM currently focuses on the geographic locations of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh (two of the Southern States in India). We believe that the Company is well positioned to exploit the potential of the Wedding Services market because of its presence in this market since 2004 and respected brand name. The Company is also planning to expand its services in the United States during 2014. KM’s target customers include the Indian high-income group, higher middle-income group, and other affluent individuals both in the U.S. and India. This segment, being upwardly mobile and comfort and service focused, is the right target group for the business positioning of KM.

 

KM India has been servicing the Indian Diaspora in the United States through its website since 2004 which was followed up by Community Meets (events focused on bringing together individuals who are seeking a life partner and who share similar backgrounds (e.g. profession, socio-economic background, religion, etc.) conducted during the fiscal year 2011 in 5 cities (New York City, South Windsor (Connecticut), Boston, Houston & San Antonio) which was attended by around 1,200 prospective matrimonial customers. In October 2013, KM India also filmed for Sun TV across 6 different US cities (New York, South Windsor Connecticut), New Brunswick, San Jose, Dallas and Houston), which was attended by over 5,400 South Indian community members. KM’s tv show is a 30 minute matrimonial-related program produced by KM and telecast once a week by Sun TV. The TV program introduces profiles of individuals seeking to be matched and also incorporates an entertainment based “debate show” which covers various “topics of social impact” which are discussed and debated upon by professionals & experts.

24
 

 

Based on the experience gained from the above activities, KM believes that the Indian Diaspora in the United States presents a lucrative market that requires Matrimonial and Wedding Services offered by KM but also requires a customized and focused approach for exploiting the same. The plan for exploring this business opportunity includes setting up offices in the U.S. (fiscal 2014), providing Wedding Services for weddings to be conducted in India by Indians in the U.S. (fiscal 2014), launching a customized website for Matrimonial Services in the U.S. market (fiscal 2015) and providing Wedding Services for conducting weddings locally in the United States (fiscal 2016-17).

 

Matrimonial Services (Matchmaking Services)

 

In 2004, KM India entered into the Matrimonial Services industry by acquiring three different firms involved in various aspects of matrimonial services, as set forth below:

 

A.Pyramid Creations, a production firm providing matrimonial service through a TV program named KM which commenced in 2000;
B.Kalyanamalai.net, a firm providing matrimonial service through Online Platform since 2001; and
C.Kalyanamalai, a Matrimonial Magazine (Publication) firm established in 2002.

 

The Company consolidated these activities and became a single comprehensive Matrimonial Service provider with multiple delivery channels viz. print and visual media, website, physical centers and events.

 

For the Matrimonial Services, KM uses the brand name ‘Kalyanamalai’. While continuing the acquired 3 service delivery platforms listed above (TV, online platform and magazine publication), KM also expanded its service by opening 19 centers across South India. Further, new services such as ‘Joint Prayers’ (where those seeking a life partner seek divine intervention for early and hurdle free wedding) and Community Meet (where those seeking a life partner falling under a similar group, e.g. profession, socio-economic background, etc. come together to explore the right match for them) were introduced. We believe that the wide range of services that we provide to our customers through various platforms makes KM a comprehensive service provider and a leader in the South Indian wedding market.

  

One of the key strategies of KM is to take advantage of new age technologies. Further, in order to ensure the reach of KM’s service to its target groups, which also includes customers from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities (explained in detail below), where significant percentages of population have limited or no access to the internet, KM created a network of brick and mortar centers supported by an online technology platform for enabling matchmaking. Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are non-metro cities that are generally defined based on their populations and commercialization as determined by a multitude of factors such as sales tax revenue, number of bank branches, internet connections, and umber of skilled workers etc. Tier 2 cities have a population of 1 to 5 million and Tier 3 cities are those cities which have a population of less than 1 million. Tier 1 cities are cities with populations exceeding 5 million.

 

As such, KM has created a unique combination of technology and tradition, giving the Company a competitive edge in the market place. With its commitment to servicing customers’ specific needs, KM has been able to provide products ranging from 60 USD to 1,600 USD for matrimonial services. Also, since its beginning, KM has been able to service a large group of customers and has grown to become a major matrimonial service provider in South India, having successfully enabled 200,000 matches. 

 

KM has been a leader in the industry and has to its credit various “firsts” in terms of introduction of new concepts and services, including;

 

A.Profile introduction on TV
B.A magazine focusing exclusively on / dedicated to matrimony, having color photographs of the profiles
C.Conducting Community Meets across the geographies for customer acquisition and service
D.Introducing the concept of matrimonial services assisted by KM’s personnel (“officers”) who provide personalized service to the customers in their endeavor to finding a match.

Improved search tools and matching logic for the online platform

E.Forward integration of Wedding Services with the matrimonial services

 

One aspect of the Company that sets it apart from its competitors is the introduction of profiles of individuals seeking to be matched, through a weekly TV series that has been running since 2000. The TV series is telecast on SUN TV, which is ranked No. 1 in terms of viewership and reach in South Indian TV Market. SUN TV holds a bouquet of 33 channels and has the highest reach, frequency and patronage of millions of viewership all over the world.

25
 

We believe our weekly TV series gives us a competitive edge for driving the brand as well as providing efficient service to profile seekers. To make the best of this, KM has implemented a unique design for the program to enable the brand to reach a far larger audience than just the profile seekers. The program design incorporates an entertainment based ‘debate show’ as an integral part of the program, which covers various ‘topics of social impact’ which are discussed and debated upon by professionals & experts. This debate is moderated and judged by a professional and/or celebrity. By covering interesting topics, this program has attracted large numbers of followers and has also enabled KM to get over 50 celebrities on the KM platform including policy makers, administrators, politicians, actors and other celebrities. Filming for this ‘debate show’ is held in front of a large live audience (ranging from 1,000 - 3,000 live viewers). This has created a strong brand positioning for KM and has created an ideal launching platform for the wedding services of KM. Further, this has helped KM gain recognition as a player suited to cater to the requirements of the target customer base.

 

We believe that being telecast on the SUN TV network affords the Company the following advantages;

 

·Immediate brand recognition among the viewers of the program with the services offered by ‘KM’ and
·Numerous options for the profiles for finding the right partner filtered through a wide base.

 

Entry into the Wedding Services market

 

After having established KM as a leading and respected service provider in the matrimonial industry, KM entered into other areas of wedding services. KM has entered the wedding event management and related services segments including wedding catering services by acquiring certain intellectual property rights from Unique Marriage Services, a firm involved in the wedding catering and management services since 1980. Unique Marriage Services was providing Wedding services under the brand name “Athithi”. KM’s acquired intellectual property rights include the use of the brand name “Athithi”, business know-how pertaining to wedding event management, catering knowhow, talent pool, skilled labor, vendor supply chain network, wedding hall owners network, sourcing strategy, proprietary recipe of signature dishes, market intelligence, etc.

 

With the addition of Wedding Services, where the revenue per customer is around 12,000 to 18,000 USD, KM is able to build on the current Matrimonial Services customers where the average revenue per customer is around 120 USD, to use our Wedding Services. The Company became one of the early entrants in the industry to provide an integrated Wedding Service. Keeping in line with KM’s presence in the geographical area of Tamil Nadu, KM focuses on servicing the South Indian community from providing the matchmaking services to conducting the wedding event.

 

KM has created a wide range of services as part of conducting the wedding event for South Indian weddings. The range of services typically includes: 

 

 

 

In order to increase the Wedding Services business, KM intends to lease and/or own wedding halls (physical infrastructures where the wedding is conducted, similar to banquet halls of hotels) and provide Wedding Services for the weddings conducted in these halls. KM plans to roll out 10 such wedding infrastructures in India during the period 2014-2018, with the first 2 halls to be rolled out in fiscal 2014. KM also plans to explore such wedding infrastructure opportunities in the U.S. after 2016.

The wedding hall would facilitate the conduct of wedding rituals, and houses all the necessary facilities like rooms for families, assembly hall, dining hall, etc. KM is in talks with infrastructure owners and is exploring the possibility of creating a chain of branded wedding halls through leased wedding infrastructure to promote its services with its main focus on the high-income group and higher middle-income group target audience.

  

The objective of KM’s wedding halls is to create ‘quality wedding infrastructure’ where turnkey services for the wedding can be provided by KM. This will position KM as an organized player in a currently largely unorganized market.

 

 

 

By providing wedding event management services along with quality wedding halls, we believe we will be able to capitalize on the growing ‘wedding market’ by focusing on providing personalized and quality service and straddling across the value chain in this business segment with a focus on the target groups of high-income and high middle-income groups. We further believe that this will make KM a unique player in the market with services offered starting from matrimony and culminating in the wedding infrastructure and event management service.

Indian Wedding Market

 

Indian Weddings typically are conducted over two calendar days in a traditional wedding hall, which is capable of accommodating a large number of guests averaging around 500 - 5,000 guests for a wedding. The wedding events are evolving from being a religious one to a social one and are normally among the top spending events in one’s life.

 

Key business drivers for the industry are:

 

·Demographic profile of the Indian population. Over 50% of India’s population are in the age group below 25 and 65% are below 35 years. 2
·With the economic growth and consequent improvement in the disposable income of the Indian middle and upper middle class, wedding expenses are on the rise.
·With the changing social profile, large numbers of young women are becoming earning members of the society thereby having higher incomes and increased discretionary spending.
·A focus on maintaining the traditional values and seemingly increasing the rigor of adherence to these values.
·Wedding events getting evolved from being a small family event to a status symbol as well as social positioning.
·Incorporating entertainment for improved social positioning.
·Continuously increasing circle of friends and relatives resulting in higher attendance for the wedding (social networking).

 

We believe these factors provide a great opportunity for various players involved in the wedding services.

 

There are a wide range of wedding services which are required in the market including:

 

·Pre-Wedding – Matchmaking & Matrimonial Services
·Wedding – Event Management Services & Wedding Shopping (beauty treatment, salon, spa)
·Post-Wedding – Honeymoon packages and other related services.

 

Indian weddings at the high end of the society have always been an event of huge magnitude in terms of its grandeur. India’s burgeoning middle class, now 50 million strong and expected to grow steadily over the next decade reaching 200 million by 20203, are turning weddings into a showcase event of their growing disposable incomes and newfound appetites for the goodies of the global marketplace. The change is visible in the middle class who wants the flavor and ambience of elite weddings. They too are spending and want the best available with improved quality and incorporating new concepts and themes. Thus, while continuing to be a religious event, weddings have various aspirational angles for improved social positioning. 

 

 With weddings becoming more and more aspirational, various opportunities and fresh services are getting introduced. Wedding planners belong to the event management industry, which is growing at a fast and steady rate. While this industry is still nascent and evolving in India, Indian wedding event management services companies have clearly demonstrated their capabilities in successfully managing several large weddings and mega national and international events over the past few years. With rising incomes, people are also spending more on weddings, parties and other personal functions. However, with the lack of wedding infrastructure and the unorganized management of most wedding events, there exists a big gap and a potential high growth in this segment of the industry.

 

One of the key requirements for a good wedding, specifically in the southern part of the India is the requirement of a wedding hall. As the wedding events are generally conducted over 2 to 3 days, people generally prefer to have the events exclusively in the wedding halls. Wedding halls are generally owned and operated by an unorganized sector and mostly, even in metro cities like Chennai, the infrastructure of the wedding hall has not evolved with the changing times. KM believes that even the top quality halls in most cities in India do not have basic infrastructure like requisite car parking and air conditioning. It is for this reason, that banquet halls of various star hotels have been used for wedding parties. In fact, various religious offerings which are part of the wedding ceremony are restricted in these halls and hence, the customers end up having the ceremony in a different place and a party in the banquet hall. This is where the KM business model is relevant to the traditional Indian Wedding Services Market, and its value is likely to be perceived more so in its target geographies and its focus market segments.

While typically caterers double up as wedding event managers, they generally take care of the conduct of the wedding, after the wedding hall is booked. Thus, they do not take care of the wedding hall requirements. Further, with good wedding halls being in constant demand, pre-booking is done around a year in advance. There is a huge time gap between the decision on the hall and arrangement of a contractor. Further, most of the wedding contractors are cooks by themselves. Hence, the major focus of a contractor goes into food and its quality and generally service requirements are given a back seat and so is the requirement of logistics and rituals associated with the wedding. Thus, the business of wedding services is largely unorganized and split across multiple categories of service providers.

 

KM’s Expansion in the U.S. Market 

 

KM India has been servicing the Non Resident Indian (NRI) & Persons of Indian Origin (PIO) communities in the United States since 2004. KM’s SUN TV Program is popular among the South Indian NRI community in the U.S.

 

With regard to the NRI and PIO population in the U.S.:

 

·As of 2003, there are 200,000 NRI millionaires in the U.S.4;
·As of 2003, one out of 9 Indians in the U.S. are millionaires, which represents around 10% of all the millionaires in the U.S.5;
·As of 2011, the American NRI median income is estimated to be over $60,000 USD compared to the national average of $38,885 USD, making it the wealthiest immigrant group in the United States6.

 

This is a large market for Wedding Services including Matrimony and Turn Key Wedding Event Management Services in the U.S. Over the last couple of years around 30% of KM’s Wedding Services (Athithi) revenues are generated out of the customers who are based out of the U.S.

 

Further, KM plans to launch a special web-based service for U.S. Indians to match U.S. resident Indians to those in India to find the right life partner in fiscal 2015.

 

Since 2011, KM’s ties with the U.S. have increased substantially. KM’s management team visited and met with various South Indian groups and associations across the length and breadth of the U.S. and has created close relationship with these groups/associations. KM has established relationships with a large number of associations from across the U.S. including the following:

 

·Federation of Tamil Sangams of North America (FeTNA)
·Tamil Sangam of Greater Washington
·Tamil Association of Greater Delaware Valley
·Connecticut Tamil Sangam
·Las Vegas Tamil Sangam
·Boston Thamil Association
·Muthamizh Sangam of Central Florida
·Kentucky Tamil Sangam
·Greater Atlanta Tamil Sangam (GATS)
·New Jersey Tamil Arts and Cultural Society (NJTACS)
·Chicago Tamil Sangam
·Austin Tamizh Sangam
·Tamil Sangam - Michigan
·Minnesota Tamil Sangam (MNTS)
·Richmond Tamil Sangam

In October 2013, we filmed our Sun TV television program in six locations throughout the United States, including New York City, South Windsor, New Brunswick, San Jose, Dallas and Houston. These episodes will assist in our launch throughout the United States.

 

KM plans to expand its presence in the U.S. during 2014 and focus on being a market leader in providing “Turn Key Wedding Management Services” for conducting weddings in India. With an already strong brand presence among the target population, KM intends to invest further in local presence, marketing and service offering. With the launch of KM Wedding Halls, which suits the infrastructure requirements expected by those who are used to American comforts, coupled with the brand, experience and local presence and marketing, KM expects to have over 50-60% of its revenues servicing this market by 2017. Further, Thematic Weddings are popular among the Indian population settled in the U.S., accordingly, KM will focus on providing such weddings, which KM believes will provide higher revenue and also brand positioning among the community.

 

The roll out plan for expansion in the U.S. includes setting up offices in the U.S. for exploring this business opportunity (fiscal 2014), providing Wedding Services for weddings to be conducted in India by Indians in the U.S. (fiscal 2014), launching a customized website for Matrimonial Services in the U.S. market (fiscal 2015), and also providing Wedding Services for conducting weddings locally in the U.S. (fiscal 2016-17).

 

Competition

 

Being an unorganized industry, the industry consists of a wide spectrum of service providers. Each service provider focuses on one or a few services required for a wedding. Hence, there are not many organized players who focus on a wide range of services similar to the services offered by KM.

 

There are various wedding halls, which enable the customers to identify wedding contractors. Similarly, the wedding contractors who are mainly focusing on providing food for the occasion also enable arrangement of other logistic support including decoration, flowers, etc. Another category that is being used is the star hotels for a “reception” for a wedding, which covers all the requirements. This generally covers the hall (banquet hall), food, decorations, services, etc.

 

A comparison chart across various organized players and major categories of players is as follows:

 

Name Matrimony Wedding Planning Event Management Event Infra
KM Strong Medium Strong Medium
Bharat Matrimony Strong No No No
Shaadi.com Strong No No No
Times matrimony Strong No No No
Event Managers No No Strong No
Wedding Halls No No No Strong

 

Thus, while there is competition in each of the segments, the focus of KM is to provide a wide range of services from matrimony to event infrastructure and event management to create a new benchmark for an organized and comprehensive service provider in this industry.

Government Regulations

 

We are subject to a number of U.S. federal and state, and foreign laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet, many of which are still evolving and being tested in courts, and could be interpreted in ways that could harm our business. These may involve user privacy, rights of publicity, data protection, content, intellectual property, distribution, electronic contracts and other communications, competition and consumer protection. In particular, we are subject to federal, state, and foreign laws regarding privacy and protection of user data. Foreign data protection, privacy, and other laws and regulations are often more restrictive than those in the United States. U.S. federal and state and foreign laws and regulations are constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. In addition, the application and interpretation of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly-evolving industry in which we operate. There are also a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies, and foreign governments concerning data protection, which could affect our business.

 

As can be expected with any revolutionary change in the landscape of global computing, certain legal issues arise. Laws and regulations directly applicable to Internet communications, e-commerce and advertising are becoming more prevalent and due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is likely that additional laws and regulations will be adopted.  Compliance with these laws and regulations may involve significant costs or require changes in business practices that result in reduced revenue. Noncompliance could result in penalties being imposed on our Company, or an order that we stop the alleged noncompliant activity, either of which would substantially harm our business.

 

Further, there are a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies and foreign governments concerning data protection and many states have passed laws that require notifications to be sent to customers when there is a security breach of personal data. The interpretation and application of current laws regarding data protection are still uncertain and in flux. It is possible that these laws may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our data practices. If so, in addition to the possibility of fines, this could result in an order requiring that we change our data and disclosure practices, which could have an adverse effect on our business. Complying with these various laws could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Pursuant to an Intellectual Property Agreement between KM India and Unique Marriage Services dated November 29, 2012, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 and incorporated herein by reference, KM India acquired the right to utilize certain intellectual property comprising of use of the brand name “Athithi”, business know-how pertaining to wedding event management, catering knowhow, talent pool, skilled labor, vendor supply chain network, wedding hall owners network, sourcing strategy, proprietary recipe of signature dishes, market intelligence, etc. Additionally, KM India has secured the website domain name www.kmmatrimony.com. We plan to apply for trademark protection in the United States of the brand KM. We may later seek patent protection in the United States of the technologies that drive our services.  Securing these protections will be material to our business as it will raise awareness of our brand and services and protect our ideas from use by other companies with a similar business model.  

 

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, misappropriation, or other violations of intellectual property or other rights. We intend to protect our future intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, as well as contractual restrictions. We hope to control access to our proprietary information by entering into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants or any third parties we may engage.

    

Employees and Consultants

 

As of the date of this Offering, the Company has approximately 81 full-time employees, 7 part-time employees and 2 consultants that operate as independent contractors. We intend to increase the number of our employees and consultants to meet our needs as the Company grows.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

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

GENERAL DISCUSSION

 

The successful implementation of our business plan is dependent upon receiving sufficient funds from this Offering and/or additional funding from management, the issuance of equity or debt, or through obtaining a credit facility. Substantial expenditures will be required to enable the Company to scale up its operations and quality of services. While the Company believes that if all shares offered hereunder are sold, the net proceeds should be sufficient to permit the Company to continue operations and meet its capital requirements for approximately twelve (12) months, it is anticipated that the Company may need to raise additional capital to maintain operations, facilitate future growth and support its long-term growth initiatives. In addition, if not all of the shares offered hereunder are sold, the Company will need to obtain substantial additional funds much sooner, and possibly within twelve (12) months after this Offering, to grow and expand its operations. The Company’s established bank-financing arrangements will not be adequate. Therefore, it is likely that the Company would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private sales of its debt or equity securities to fund its growth plans.

 

33
 

There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts can generate availability of additional funds when needed, or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to curtail its expansion plans, which will adversely affect its revenue and profitability.

 

As of effectiveness of our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, the Company will not become a fully reporting company, but rather, will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We will be required to file periodic reports with the SEC which will be immediately available to the public for inspection and copying (see “Where You Can Find More Information” elsewhere in this prospectus). Except during the year that our registration statement becomes effective, these reporting obligations may be automatically suspended under Section 15(d) if we have less than 300 shareholders. If this occurs after the year in which our registration statement becomes effective, we will no longer be obligated to file periodic reports with the SEC and your access to our business information would then be even more restricted; however, that filing obligation will generally apply even if our reporting obligations have been suspended automatically under section 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the due date for the Form 10-K. After that fiscal year and provided the Company has less than 300 shareholders, the Company is not required to file these reports. If the reports are not filed, the investors will have reduced visibility as to the Company and its financial condition.

 

In addition, as a filer subject to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company is not required to prepare proxy or information statements, and our common stock will not be subject to the protection of the ongoing private regulations. Additionally, the Company will be subject to only limited portions of the tender offer rules, and our officers, directors, and more than ten (10%) percent shareholders are not required to file beneficial ownership reports about their holdings in our Company, and will not be subject to the short-swing profit recovery provisions of the Exchange Act. Further, more than five percent (5%) holders of classes of our equity securities will not be required to report information about their ownership positions in the securities. This means that your access to information regarding our business will be limited.

 

As a reporting company under the Exchange Act, we are required to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, starting with the second annual report that we file with the SEC after the consummation of this Offering. In connection with the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we may identify deficiencies that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. We will be unable to issue securities in the public markets through the use of a shelf registration statement if we are not in compliance with Section 404. Furthermore, failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have a material adverse effect on our business and share price and could limit our ability to report our financial results accurately and timely.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

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

 

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

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

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

34

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

 

There are no employment contracts, compensatory plans or arrangements, including payments to be received from the Company with respect to any executive officer, that would result in payments to such person because of his or her resignation, retirement or other termination of employment with the Company, or its subsidiaries, any change in control, or a change in the person’s responsibilities following a change in control of the Company.

 

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

 

There are no current outstanding equity awards to our executive officers as of March 31, 2013.  

 

Long-Term Incentive Plans

 

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers.

 

Compensation Committee

 

We currently do not have a compensation committee of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors as a whole determines executive compensation.

 

Compensation of Directors

 

The compensation paid to our directors for their services on the Board of Directors of the Company is set forth above in the Summary Compensation Table.

  

Security Holders Recommendations to Board of Directors

 

Shareholders can direct communications to our Chief Executive Officer, at our executive offices. However, while we appreciate all comments from shareholders, we may not be able to individually respond to all communications. We attempt to address shareholder questions and concerns in our press releases and documents filed with the SEC so that all shareholders have access to information about us at the same time. Mr. Mohan collects and evaluates all shareholder communications. All communications addressed to our directors and executive officers will be reviewed by those parties unless the communication is clearly frivolous.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors is currently composed of two members who do not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the director with regard to his business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to the Company and our management.

 

Committees

 

We do not currently have an audit, compensation or nominating committee.  The Board of Directors as a whole currently acts as our audit, compensation and nominating committees. We intend to establish an audit, compensation and nominating committee of our Board of Directors once we expand the Board to include one or more independent directors and intend to adopt a charter for each committee.

 

Our audit committee shall be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our independent auditors, evaluating our accounting policies and our system of internal controls. Our compensation committee shall assist the Board in reviewing and approving the compensation structure, including all forms of compensation, relating to our directors and executive officers and periodically reviewing and approving any long-term incentive compensation or equity plans, programs or similar arrangements. Our nominating committee shall assist the Board in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the Board and its committees.

EXPERTS

Manohar Chowdhry & Associates has presented its report with respect to our audited financial statements.

 

COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and that none of our directors will be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

 

  • for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders;
  • for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law;
  • under Delaware law for the unlawful payment of dividends; or
  • for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit.

These provisions require us to indemnify our directors and officers unless restricted by Delaware law and eliminate our rights and those of our stockholders to recover monetary damages from a director for breach of his or her fiduciary duty of care as a director except in the situations described above. The limitations summarized above, however, do not affect our ability or that of our stockholders to seek non-monetary remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

a. Basis of Consolidation              
                 
 

The Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with KM Matrimony Private Limited, India and the Shareholders of KM Matrimony Private Limited on February 14, 2013. Based on the Agreement, the entire shares of KM Matrimony Private Limited will be acquired by the Company over a period of time. As of March 31, 2013, there were common directors in both the Company and KM Matrimony Private Limited.

 

The accounting literature evaluated for determining the consolidation is 810-10-15-3(c). The requirements set out in the above standard are met through that agreement.

 

The requirements as per the FASB Standard are as follows:

(i) The term of the contractual arrangement is for perpetuity;

(ii) The Company has control over the board of KM Matrimony Private Limited, India; and

(iii) The Company has significant financial interest in KM Matrimony Private Limited, India.

                 
b. Form and Content of the Consolidated Financial Statements
   
  The Company maintains its books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting policies in USA (“US GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements were derived from the Company’s statutory books and records. The financial statements are presented in US Dollars ($), the national currency of USA.
 

The accounting policy for translating the financials into US dollars is as follows:

 

Revenue and related expenses generated from our international subsidiaries are generally denominated in the currency of Rupee. The statements of income of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates indicative of market rates during each applicable period.

  Subsequent events have been evaluated through August 31, 2013, the date these financial statements are available to be issued.
                 
c. Management Estimates        
           
  The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the period. Management believes it has a reasonable and appropriate basis for its judgment pertaining to its estimates and assumptions. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.
   
d. Cash and Cash Equivalents        
           
  Cash represents cash on hand and in the Company’s bank accounts and interest bearing deposits which can be effectively withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalties reducing the principal amount of the deposit. Cash equivalents are highly liquid, short-term investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less from their date of purchase.
                 
e. Loans and Accounts Receivable        
           
 

Loans and accounts receivable are stated at their principal amounts outstanding net of loan losses and allowances for doubtful debts. The accounts receivable are unsecured and the allowance for doubtful debts are established at amounts considered to be appropriate based primarily upon past credit loss experience with the customers and an evaluation of potential losses on the outstanding receivable balances.

 

 As of March 31, 2013, there are no doubtful debts.

                 
f. Inventories        
           
  Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using weighted average method.
                 
g. Property, Plant and Equipment        
           
  Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance, repairs, and replacement of minor items of property is charged to operating expenses. Renewals and betterments of assets are capitalized.
   
  Upon sale or retirement of property, plant and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts. Any resulting gains or losses are included in the statement of income. All assets are periodically reviewed for possible impairment losses.
                 
h. Intangible assets        
           
  Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any.
                 
i. Depreciation and Amortization        
           
  Depreciation with respect to property, plant and equipment and amortization with respect to amortizable intangible assets is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives.
   
 

Depreciation and amortization rates are applied to groups of assets with similar economic characteristics, as shown below:

 

47
 

Asset Group  Estimated Useful Life
Property, Plant and equipment   
Vehicles  11 years
Computers & peripherals  6 years
Furniture and Fixtures  10 years
Office Equipment  7 years
Leasehold improvements  10 years
Intangible assets   
Software  6 years

 

j. Income Taxes        
           
  The major tax jurisdictions for the company are India and the United States of America. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis.
   
  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, operating loss carry forwards and tax credits. 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. A valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset is recorded when management believes that it is more likely than not that this tax asset will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Income in the period of change.
   
  The Company accounts for interest and penalties in the statement of income as interest expense and other expenses respectively.
                 
k. Employee Benefits        
           
  Provident fund (Defined Contribution Plan)        
           
  In accordance with Indian law, all employees are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund scheme, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the employee and the employer make monthly contributions to the plan at a predetermined rate (presently 12.0%) of the employees' basic salary. The Company has no further obligations under the plan beyond its monthly contributions. These contributions are made to fund administered and managed by the Government of India. The monthly contributions are charged to income in the period it is incurred.
                 
  Employees state insurance fund (Defined Contribution Plan)    
       
  In addition to the above benefit, all employees who are drawing gross salary of less than ` 15,000 per month are entitled to receive benefit under employee state insurance fund scheme. The employer makes contribution to the scheme at a predetermined rate (presently 4.75%) of employee's gross salary to the ESI Corporation.  There no further obligations under the scheme beyond its monthly contributions. The monthly contributions are charged to income in the year it is incurred.
                 
  Gratuity plan (Defined Benefit Plan)          
             
  In addition to the above benefits, the Company provides for a gratuity obligation, a defined benefit retirement plan (the "Gratuity Plan") covering all its employees in India. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement or termination of employment based on the respective employee's salary, and the years of employment with the Company. The Company provides for the Gratuity Plan on the basis of actuarial valuation. This defined benefit plan is unfunded as on the date of these financial statements. Net periodic gratuity cost is recorded in the Statements of Income and includes service cost, interest cost and actuarial gains/losses.
                 
l. Revenue Recognition        
           
  Revenue from services are recognized over the period the service is contracted to be rendered. Advance amounts received from customers against billings for the period of service yet to be rendered on time proportion basis is disclosed as 'unearned revenues'.
   
  Revenue from products are recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer.
   
  All revenues are recognized only when collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and are reported net of discounts and service taxes.
                 
m. Revenues and costs - Filmed Entertainment        
           
  Television series are initially produced for television networks and may be subsequently licensed for foreign or domestic cable. The Company has not entered into secondary market transactions for the television series it produces. Revenues from distribution or exploitation of the television series in the initial market are recognized as revenues when (i) an arrangement has been signed with a customer, (ii) the customer’s right to use or otherwise exploit the intellectual property has commenced and there is no requirement for significant continued performance by the Company, (iii) arrangement fees are either fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability of the fees is reasonably assured.
   
  Film costs include the unamortized cost of completed television episodes and television series in production. Film costs are stated at the lower of cost, less accumulated amortization, or fair value. The amount of capitalized film costs for a given period is determined using the individual film-forecast-computation method. Under this method, the amortization of capitalized costs is based on the proportion of the film’s actual revenues recognized for such period to the film’s estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenues. All exploitation costs of the company are expensed as incurred.
                 
  With respect to the "Kalyanamalai" television series, the fair value of the film (after considering estimated future exploitation costs) is less than its unamortized film costs and hence the Company has written off to the income statement the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs exceed the fair value.
   
  Revenues earned from and costs incurred in production of the television series have been presented under the heads 'matrimonial service income' and 'matrimonial service expense' in the financial statements.
                 
n. Leasing Agreements        
           
  Capital leases, which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the interest charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liabilities. Interest charges are charged directly to the statements of income.
   
  Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
                 
o. Earnings per share        
  Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
   
  Diluted earnings per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period except where the results will be anti-dilutive.
                 
p. Accounting for Contingencies        
           
  Certain conditions may exist as of the date of these financial statements which may further result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management of the Company makes an assessment of such contingent liabilities which is based on assumptions and is a matter of opinion. In assessing loss contingencies relating to legal or tax proceedings that involve the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, after consultation with legal or tax advisors, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal or tax proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
   
  If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability is accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
   
  Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed. However, in some instances in which disclosure is not otherwise required, the Company may disclose contingent liabilities or other uncertainties of an unusual nature which, in the judgment of management after consultation with its legal or tax counsel, may be of interest to shareholders or others.

Credit risk
 
Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. Accounts receivable balances are typically unsecured and are derived from revenues earned from customers. The Company’s management reviews ageing analysis of outstanding accounts receivables and follows up on past due balances. There is no significant concentration of credit risk.
 
Service tax
 
Penalties, if any, on account of delay in payment of service tax dues are unascertainable.

Additionally, the company has provided disclosures where significant events have occurred subsequent to the issuance of its 2013 audited financial statements.

1During the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company has issued stock dividends (in the nature of stock splits) to the existing shareholders of the Company in the ratio of nine shares for every one share held. As per the provisions of the Indian Companies Act, 1956, stock dividends can be issued only out of existing positive retained earnings. The audited financial statements of the Company prepared under Indian GAAP as at March 31, 2009 discloses positive retained earnings to the tune of Rs. 15.02 Million. The available retained earnings as per audited Indian GAAP financial statements have been capitalized by issuance of stock dividends (in the nature of stock splits) to the tune of Rs. 14.85 Million.

 

However, financial statements prepared as per US GAAP disclose negative retained earnings as at March 31, 2009 to the tune of Rs. 33.89 Million. Since allotment of shares has been concluded as per Indian statutory laws, the same has been retained in these financial statements as per US GAAP. This has resulted in an increase in the accumulated deficit and share capital by Rs. 14.85 Million, respectively.

KM Matrimony Private Limited

Notes to condensed financial statements

(in Indian Rupees Rs. unless otherwise stated)

 

1. General

 

KM Matrimony Private Limited ('the Company') was originally incorporated on July 19, 1996 in the name and style, Natraj Television Network Limited in Chennai, Tamil Nadu under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The name of the company was later changed to KM Matrimony Limited with effect from March 18, 2004. Subsequently, on January 7, 2005, the company got converted into a private limited company and the name of the company was changed to its present name i.e. KM Matrimony Private Limited.

 

The Company is principally engaged in the business of matrimonial services through mass media such as internet, print, television and ground events and is also engaged in providing wedding catering services and other related services in India.

 

The Company also produces two entertainment shows "Kalyanamalai" (Tamil language) and "Vivaha Bhandam" (Telugu language) which are telecasted on television networks.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

a.Form and Content of the Financial Statements

The Company maintains its books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting policies in India (“Indian GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements were derived from the Company’s Indian statutory books and records with adjustments made to present them in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (Rs.), the national currency of India.

 

Subsequent events have been evaluated through June 25, 2013, the date these financial statements are available to be issued.

 

The accompanying financial statements differ from the financial statements issued for statutory purposes in India in that they reflect certain adjustments, not recorded in the Company’s statutory books, which are appropriate to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with US GAAP. The principal adjustments relate to: (1) recognition of certain expenses; (2) depreciation of property, plant and equipment; (3) deferred income taxes; (4) accounting of employee benefits.

 

b.Convenience translation (unaudited)

Solely for the convenience of the readers, the financial statements as on and for the year ended March 31, 2013 have been translated into United States dollars at the certified foreign exchange rate of US$1 = Rs.54.52, as published by Federal Reserve Board of Governors on March 30, 2013. No representation is made that the Indian rupee amounts have been, could have been or could be converted into United States dollars at such a rate or any other rate.

 

c.Management Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the period. Management believes it has a reasonable and appropriate basis for its judgment pertaining to its estimates and assumptions. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

d.Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash represents cash on hand and in the Company’s bank accounts and interest bearing deposits which can be effectively withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalties reducing the principal amount of the deposit. Cash equivalents are highly liquid, short-term investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less from their date of purchase.

 

e.Loans and Accounts Receivable

Loans and accounts receivable are stated at their principal amounts outstanding net of loan losses and allowances for doubtful debts. The accounts receivable are unsecured and the allowance for doubtful debts are established at amounts considered to be appropriate based primarily upon past credit loss experience with the customers and an evaluation of potential losses on the outstanding receivable balances.

 

As of March 31, 2013, there are no doubtful debts.

 

f.Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using weighted average method.

 

79
 

g.Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance, repairs, and replacement of minor items of property is charged to operating expenses. Renewals and betterments of assets are capitalized.

 

Upon sale or retirement of property, plant and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts. Any resulting gains or losses are included in the statement of income. All assets are periodically reviewed for possible impairment losses.

 

h.Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any.

 

i.Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation with respect to property, plant and equipment and amortization with respect to amortizable intangible assets is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives.

 

Depreciation and amortization rates are applied to groups of assets with similar economic characteristics, as shown below:

 

Asset Group Estimated Useful Life
Property, plant and equipment  
Vehicles 11 years
Computers and peripherals 6 years
Furniture and Fixtures 10 years
Office Equipments 7 years
Leasehold improvements 10 years
Intangible Assets  
Software 6 years

 

j.Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided on taxable profit as determined under the Indian Income-tax Act, 1961. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, operating loss carry forwards and tax credits. 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. A valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset is recorded when management believes that it is more likely than not that this tax asset will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Income in the period of change.

 

The Company accounts for interest and penalties in the statement of income as interest expense and other expenses respectively.

 

k.Employee Benefits

Provident fund (Defined Contribution Plan)

In accordance with Indian law, all employees are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund scheme, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the employee and the employer make monthly contributions to the plan at a predetermined rate (presently 12.0%) of the employees' basic salary. The Company has no further obligations under the plan beyond its monthly contributions. These contributions are made to fund administered and managed by the Government of India. The monthly contributions are charged to income in the period it is incurred.

 

Employees state insurance fund (Defined Contribution Plan)

In addition to the above benefit, all employees who are drawing gross salary of less than Rs.15,000 per month are entitled to receive benefit under employee state insurance fund scheme. The employer makes contribution to the scheme at a predetermined rate (presently 4.75%) of employee's gross salary to the ESI Corporation. There no further obligations under the scheme beyond its monthly contributions. The monthly contributions are charged to income in the year it is incurred.

80
 

 

Gratuity plan (Defined Benefit Plan)

In addition to the above benefits, the Company provides for a gratuity obligation, a defined benefit retirement plan (the "Gratuity Plan") covering all its employees in India. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement or termination of employment based on the respective employee's salary, and the years of employment with the Company. The Company provides for the Gratuity Plan on the basis of actuarial valuation. This defined benefit plan is unfunded as on the date of these financial statements. Net periodic gratuity cost is recorded in the Statements of Income and includes service cost, interest cost and actuarial gains/losses.

 

l.Revenue Recognition

Revenue from services are recognized over the period the service is contracted to be rendered. Advance amounts received from customers against billings for the period of service yet to be rendered on time proportion basis is disclosed as 'unearned revenues'.

 

Revenue from products are recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer.

 

All revenues are recognized only when collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and are reported net of discounts and service taxes.

 

m.Revenues and costs - Filmed Entertainment

Television series are initially produced for television networks and may be subsequently licensed for foreign or domestic cable. The Company has not entered into secondary market transactions for the television series it produces. Revenues from distribution or exploitation of the television series in the initial market are recognized as revenues when (i) an arrangement has been signed with a customer, (ii) the customer’s right to use or otherwise exploit the intellectual property has commenced and there is no requirement for significant continued performance by the Company, (iii) arrangement fees are either fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability of the fees is reasonably assured.

 

Film costs include the unamortized cost of completed television episodes and television series in production. Film costs are stated at the lower of cost, less accumulated amortization, or fair value. The amount of capitalized film costs for a given period is determined using the individual film-forecast-computation method. Under this method, the amortization of capitalized costs is based on the proportion of the film’s actual revenues recognized for such period to the film’s estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenues. All exploitation costs of the company are expensed as incurred.

 

With respect to the "Kalyanamalai" television series, the fair value of the film (after considering estimated future exploitation costs) is less than its unamortized film costs and hence the Company has written off to the income statement the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs exceed the fair value.

 

Revenues earned from and costs incurred in production of the television series have been presented under the heads 'matrimonial service income' and 'matrimonial service expense' in the financial statements.

 

n.Leasing Agreements

Capital leases, which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the interest charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liabilities. Interest charges are charged directly to the statements of income.

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

o.Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period except where the results will be anti-dilutive.

 

p.Accounting for Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date of these financial statements which may further result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management of the Company makes an assessment of such contingent liabilities which is based on assumptions and is a matter of opinion. In assessing loss contingencies relating to legal or tax proceedings that involve the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, after consultation with legal or tax advisors, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal or tax proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

81
 

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability is accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed. However, in some instances in which disclosure is not otherwise required, the Company may disclose contingent liabilities or other uncertainties of an unusual nature which, in the judgment of management after consultation with its legal or tax counsel, may be of interest to shareholders or others.

Income tax expense compared to Statutory expectations

The major items contributing to a reconciliation of expected income tax expense / benefit by applying the statutory income tax rates to the actual income tax expense / benefit is on account of the following:

a)Nil

1 Operating losses carried forward for tax purposes of the Company amounted to Rs. 5,185,640 and Rs. 4,648,807 as at March 31, 2013 and 2012 and are available as an offset against future taxable income of the Company. These operating losses consist of unabsorbed business loss and unabsorbed depreciation. Unabsorbed business loss expire at various dates across 8 years, whereas unabsorbed depreciation has no expiration date as per the provisions of the Indian Income-tax Act, 1961. Realization is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of losses carried forward, except with respect to unabsorbed depreciation. A valuation allowance is established attributable to loss carry forwards where, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that it will not be realized.

 

2 Under the Indian Income-tax Act, 1961, the Company is liable to pay Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT). The excess tax paid as per MAT over and above the regular tax liability can be carried forward for a period of 10 years and can be set off against the future tax liabilities computed under regular tax provisions. However, a valuation allowance is established for such MAT paid by the Company, since based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that it will not be realized.

23. Subsequent events and going concern

The Company has incurred substantial losses and its net worth has been eroded. The Company has drawn up plans for changing its service mix between matrimony and wedding event management services which is expected to improve the profitability of the Company.

 

Also, the company has drawn up detailed plans for raising further capital. The company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with KM Wedding Events Management, Inc., ("Purchaser") on February 14, 2013, for the issue of up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of Rs. 11 per share (Face value – Rs.10), for an aggregate consideration of up to 2,100,000 USD. With respect to the same, the company has allotted 1,393,127 shares at 11 Rupees per share ($0.201 USD at the time of the sale) to the Purchaser on April 30, 2013 for a consideration of $280,000 USD paid by the Purchaser to the company on April 3, 2013.

 

Further, the shareholders of the company have also entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement on February 14, 2013, with KM Wedding Events Management Inc., ("Purchaser") to sell their entire holding of 3,150,000 shares to the Purchaser in two tranches. In Tranche A (“Tranche A”), shareholders will sell 1,150,000 shares at a price of Rs. 11 per share. The balance of 2,000,000 shares (“Tranche B”) have to be sold, within 3 years from the date of the above mentioned agreement, at a price equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of sale. With respect to Tranche A, the Purchaser has purchased 1,120,018 shares in the company on April 26, 2013 from Tranche A for an aggregate of $229,000 USD (Rs. 12,320,200) from two of the shareholders of the company viz. Mr. Venkatesan Vaidhyanathan (562,455 shares for $115,000 USD) and Mrs. Meera Nagarajan (557,564 shares for $114,000 USD). The remaining Tranche A shares and the Tranche B shares have to be sold within 3 years from February 14, 2013.

 

Considering the above points, the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the company is a going concern & thereby no adjustments are required to be made to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities.

 

24. Film Costs

 

The amount of unamortized film costs disclosed in the balance sheet pertains to completed and not released films with respect to the television series. The entire amount of unamortized film costs is expected to be amortized during the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2014.

 

25. Risk & Uncertainties: Credit Risk

 

Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. Accounts receivable balances are typically unsecured and are derived from revenues earned from customers. The Company’s management reviews ageing analysis of outstanding accounts receivables and follows up on past due balances. There is no significant concentration of credit risk.

 

26. Commitments and Contingencies

Service Tax

 

Penalties, if any, on account of delay in payment of service tax dues are unascertainable.

 

27. Previous Year’s Figures

 

Figures of previous year have been regrouped / rearranged, wherever required to confirm to the current year presentation.

KM Matrimony Private Limited

Notes to interim condensed financial statements

(in Indian Rupees Rs. unless otherwise stated)

 

1. General

 

KM Matrimony Private Limited ('the Company') was originally incorporated on July 19, 1996 in the name and style, Natraj Television Network Limited in Chennai, Tamil Nadu under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The name of the company was later changed to KM Matrimony Limited with effect from March 18, 2004. Subsequently, on January 7, 2005, the company got converted into a private limited company and the name of the company was changed to its present name i.e. KM Matrimony Private Limited.

 

The Company is principally engaged in the business of matrimonial services through mass media such as internet, print, television and ground events and is also engaged in providing wedding catering services and other related services in India.

 

The Company also produces two entertainment shows "Kalyanamalai" (Tamil language) and "VivahaBhandam" (Telugu language) which are telecasted on television networks.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

a.Form and Content of the Financial Statements

The Company maintains its books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting policies in India (“Indian GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements were derived from the Company’s Indian statutory books and records with adjustments made to present them in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (Rs.), the national currency of India.

 

The interim condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial reporting (primarily with topic 270, Interim Reporting, of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC")), and do not include all disclosures required by US GAAP. The company omitted disclosures which would substantially duplicate the information contained in its 2013 audited financial statements, such as accounting policies and details of accounts which have not changed significantly in amount or composition. Additionally, the company has provided disclosures where significant events have occurred subsequent to the issuance of its 2013 audited financial statements. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading if these interim condensed financial statements are read in conjunction with the company’s 2013 audited financial statements and the notes related thereto. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim reporting periods.

 

The results of operations for six months ended September 30, 2013 may not be indicative of the results of operations for the full year ending March 31, 2014. Subsequent events have been evaluated through November 28, 2013, the date these financial statements are available to be issued.

 

The accompanying interim condensed financial statements differ from the company's statutory books with respect to certain adjustments not recorded in the company’s statutory books, which are appropriate to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with US GAAP. The principal adjustments relate to: (1) depreciation of property, plant and equipment; (2) amortization of intangible assets and film cost (3) deferred income taxes; (4) accounting of employee benefits; (5) recognition of certain expenses.

 

b.Convenience translation (unaudited)

Solely for the convenience of the readers, the financial statements as on and for the six months ended September 30, 2013 have been translated into United States dollars at the foreign exchange rate of US $1 = Rs.62.58, as published by Federal Reserve Board of Governors on September 30, 2013. No representation is made that the Indian rupee (Rs.) amounts have been, could have been or could be converted into United States dollars at such a rate or any other rate.

 

c.Management Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the period. Management believes it has a reasonable and appropriate basis for its judgment pertaining to its estimates and assumptions. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

95
 

 

d.Income taxes

 

The company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-270, Income Taxes (Interim Reporting), to arrive at the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate is the best estimate of the expected annual tax rate to be applied to the taxable income for the current reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized at the normal tax rates of 30.9% (including education cess @ 3%).

 

e.Foreign Currency Transactions.

 

Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are expressed in the functional currency at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statements of income.

 

f.Revenues and Costs – Filmed Entertainment

 

Television series are initially produced for television networks and may be subsequently licensed for foreign or domestic cable. The Company has entered into secondary market transactions for the television series it produces. Revenues from distribution or exploitation of the television series are recognized as revenues when (i) an arrangement has been signed with a customer, (ii) the customer’s right to use or otherwise exploit the intellectual property has commenced and there is no requirement for significant continued performance by the Company, (iii) arrangement fees are either fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability of the fees is reasonably assured.

 

Film costs include the unamortized cost of completed television episodes and television series in production. Film costs are stated at the lower of cost, less accumulated amortization, or fair value. The amount of capitalized film costs for a given period is determined using the individual film-forecast-computation method. Under this method, the amortization of capitalized costs is based on the proportion of the film’s actual revenues recognized for such period to the film’s estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenues. All exploitation costs of the company are expensed as incurred.

 

With respect to the "Kalyanamalai" television series, the fair value of the film (after considering estimated future exploitation costs) is less than its unamortized film costs and hence the Company has written off to the income statement the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs exceed the fair value.

 

Revenues earned from and costs incurred in production of the television series have been presented under the heads 'matrimonial service income' and 'matrimonial service expense' in the financial statements.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling security holders may sell some or all of their shares at a fixed price of $0.30 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTCBB and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. Prior to being quoted on the OTCBB, shareholders may sell their shares in private transactions to other individuals. Although our common stock is not listed on a public exchange, we will be filing to obtain a listing on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board concurrently with the filing of this prospectus. In order to be quoted on the Bulletin Board, a market maker must file an application on our behalf in order to make a market for our common stock. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, which operates the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, which operates the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved. However, sales by selling security holder must be made at the fixed price of $0.30 until a market develops for the stock.

 

Once a market has been developed for our common stock, the shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling stockholders directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers or dealers who act solely as agents, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The distribution of the shares may be effected in one or more of the following methods:

 

· ordinary brokers transactions, which may include long or short sales,

·transactions involving cross or block trades on any securities or market where our common stock is trading, market where our common stock is trading,
·through direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents,
·through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange listed of otherwise), or exchange listed or otherwise), or
·any combination of the foregoing.

 

In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers who may engage in short sales, if short sales were permitted, of shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that require the delivery by such broker-dealers of the shares, which shares may be resold thereafter pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Brokers, dealers, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions). Neither the selling stockholders nor we can presently estimate the amount of such compensation. We know of no existing arrangements between the selling stockholders and any other stockholder, broker, dealer or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of the selling security holders pursuant to this prospectus. We have agreed to bear the expenses of the registration of the shares, including legal and accounting fees, and such expenses are estimated to be approximately $85,000.

 

Notwithstanding anything set forth herein, no FINRA member will charge commissions that exceed 8% of the total proceeds of the offering.

 

In connection with the sale of shares, the Selling Shareholders and any participating broker or dealer may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profits on the sale of shares or commissions they receive may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

 

There is no assurance that the Selling Shareholders will sell any or all of the shares offered by them hereby.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

The officers and directors of the Company are indemnified as provided by the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Bylaws of the Company. Unless specifically limited by a corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, Delaware law automatically provides directors with immunity from monetary liabilities. Excepted from that immunity are:

 

  1. willful failure to deal fairly with the corporation or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest;

  1. a violation of criminal law unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful;

  1. a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and

  1. willful misconduct.

 

The Certificate of Incorporation provide that the Company will indemnify its officers, directors, legal representatives, and persons serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise to the fullest extent legally permissible under the laws of the State of Delaware against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by that person as a result of that connection to the Company.
