CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The Business section and other parts of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Many of the forward-looking statements are located in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Forward-looking statements provide current expectations of future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any current or historical fact. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and the Company’s actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the subsection entitled “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K. The Company assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason, except as required by law.
PART I
Item 1. Business
We are a development stage company incorporated in the state of Florida in June, 2008. The current focus of our development stage company has the primary focus of developing mobile applications as follows:
1) VIP Wink
VIP Wink is a patent pending mobile application which will be available for iTunes and Android phones in the second quarter of 2014. The VIP Wink mobile application will empower individuals, brands and any others (VIP’s) with a significant Twitter following to monetize their fans, and differentiate the casual from the most passionate follower. The VIP Wink app seamlessly integrates into the “VIP’s” existing Twitter account and gives them control over their original content.
Through the VIP Wink mobile application, any “VIP” will be able to delay their Tweets to their existing Twitter network and reward their most passionate “followers” with immediate access to exclusive content or offers. Through the VIP Wink platform, these “VIP’s” of the social world can offer premium content via a paid subscription based model. The premium content will be locked out to all non-subscribers and available on a time delay set by the “VIP” via admin functionality. VIP WINK will finally enable all of Twitter’s most followed individuals and brands to monetize, identify, and capture direct contact data from their true fans. This application is conceptually being developed for beta testing in the second quarter of 2014.
VIP WINK has executed agreements with a selective roster of VIP celebrities, athletes, branded products and others for our beta testing of our functioning prototype. The preliminary roster of VIP WINK has approximately 20,000,000 followers on TwitterTM as of February 28, 2014. We continuously are in negotiations to execute further agreements to coincide with our development of this application.
2) MobileSonarsTM
Mobile Sonars is a white label mobile application, that through questionnaire for any location that is “pushed” to the user when they arrive matching is then determined. If activated and at the geo-location a user is then matched with others who have answered the questions in a similar manner based on a pre-determined or user selected threshold. Mobile Sonars will allow a partner site to monetize an ever growing database of users that are on property or at the event in real time. Which will allow them to offer deals, discounts, and coupons while users are both their and not there. Allow users to connect to others at a specific location and only that location or event, who match specific criteria.
Promotion and Advertising
We intend to initially rely upon point of purchase promotions, trade magazines, public relations and the internet to promote our products. Point of purchase promotional advertising will constitute the most significant portion of our promotion and advertising activities. This will include sampling programs, displays and brochures which we intend to provide to each retail outlet for our products in an effort to get customers to try our product. We will rely on public relations to trade publications to enhance retailer awareness of our products. Internet will be utilized for consumer awareness and retailer awareness purposes.
- 2 -
Trademarks, Patents and Intellectual Property
We protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, as well as contractual restrictions. We control access to our proprietary technology by entering into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors, and confidentiality agreements with third parties.
We expect to seek trademark protection for our products as soon as each product trademark is selected, as well as trademark protection for any advertising slogans we adopt. We will do a search of existing trademarks prior to selecting trademarks for our products. We believe that trademark protection will be important to brand name recognition and distributor and consumer loyalty to our products. We intend to register our important trademarks in the United States. We will use our best efforts to maintain the confidentiality of our product recipes through confidentiality agreements and physical security but do not anticipate that it will be possible to secure patents for our products or prevent competitors from developing similar products.
Government Regulation
We are subject to a number of foreign and domestic laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the Internet. As a company in a new and rapidly innovating industry, we are exposed to the risk that many of these laws may evolve or be interpreted by regulators or in the courts in ways that could materially affect our business. These laws and regulations may involve taxation, unclaimed property, intellectual property, product liability, travel, distribution, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, consumer protection, the provision of various online payment and point of sale services, employee, merchant and customer privacy and data security or other areas.
There are also a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies and foreign governments that could affect us, and our global operations may be constrained by regulatory regimes and laws in Europe and other jurisdictions outside the United States that may be more restrictive and adversely impact our business.
Competition
We anticipate that larger, more established companies may directly compete with us over time. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and larger customer bases than we do. These factors may allow our competitors to benefit from their existing customer base with lower acquisition costs or to respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. These competitors may engage in more extensive research and development efforts, undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns and adopt more aggressive pricing policies, which may allow them to build a larger subscriber base or to monetize that subscriber base more effectively than we do. Our competitors may develop products or services that are similar to our products and services or that achieve greater market acceptance than our products and services.
Employees
As of August 31, 2013 and 2012, we have no full-time employees. All activities to date have been undertaken by our officers as needed. Our officers do not currently spend all of their time on our business and estimate they devote approximately 15% of their business time on the business of the Company. We anticipate that we will begin hiring employees as needed to support our business.

Recent Financing Transactions
The Company is currently a development stage company and its continued existence is dependent upon the Company’s ability to resolve its liquidity problems, principally by obtaining additional debt financing and/or equity capital. The Company has yet to generate a significant internal cash flow, and until sales of products increase from current levels, the Company is highly dependent upon debt and equity funding, should continuing debt and equity funding requirements not be met the Company’s operations may cease to exist.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the reported amounts of revenues and expenses and the valuation of our assets and contingencies. We believe our estimates and assumptions to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our financial statements are based on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern we would experience additional losses from the write-down of assets.
Going Concern
The Company is currently a development stage company and its continued existence is dependent upon the Company’s ability to resolve its liquidity problems, principally by obtaining additional debt financing and/or equity capital. The Company has yet to generate a significant internal cash flow, and until sales of products increase from current levels, the Company is highly dependent upon debt and equity funding, should continuing debt and equity funding requirements not be met the Company’s operations may cease to exist.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
First Level Entertainment Group, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Level Entertainment Group, Inc. (“the Company”) as of August 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Level Entertainment Group, Inc. as of August 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company will need additional working capital to service its debt and for its planned activities, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FIRST LEVEL ENTERTAINMENT GROUP, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
August 31, 2013 and 2012
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
First Level Entertainment Group, Inc. (“the Company”), formerly known as Sound Kitchen Entertainment Group, Inc., is in the development stage commencing operations in February 1, 2012 and has incurred losses since entering the development stage totaling $1,481,385. The Company was incorporated on June 2, 2008 in the State of Florida and established a fiscal year end of August 31. The Company is in the entertainment business presently focusing on mobile applications. The Company has following wholly-owned subsidiaries: i) Mobile Sonars Inc.; ii) Am I There Inc.; iii) Message Attic Corp.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements present the consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company including its wholly owned subsidiaries. These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions within the Company and subsidiary have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Development Stage Company
The Company has not earned any revenue from operations. Accordingly, the Company’s activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Enterprise” as set forth in ASC Topic 915. Among the disclosures required by ASC 915 are that the Company’s consolidated financial statements be identified as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company’s inception or entering the development stage.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Intellectual Property
The Company, on July 31, 2010, acquired intellectual property consisting of thirty-five (35) children’s songs. The intellectual property acquired included all rights, title and interest and therefore the Company has title of one hundred percent (100%) ownership to the thirty-five (35) children’s songs. The Company begins amortizing intellectual property costs, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 3 years, once it is put into service. As of August 31, 2013 and August 31, 2012, the intellectual properties have been abandoned and fully impaired.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
August 31, 2013 and 2012
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10-05-4 “Property, Plant, and Equipment-Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, which was previously Financial Accounting SFAS No.144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, the Company assesses long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of asset groups to be held and used in measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company recorded impairment charges of $-0- and $262,500 during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company has no current source of revenue. The Company recognizes revenue based on Account Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605 “Revenue Recognition” which contains Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements’ and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Revenues transacted from on-line platforms are recognized at the point of sale. Cost of sales includes any labor cost and the amortization of intellectual property.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
August 31, 2013 and 2012
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of August 31, 2013 or 2012 which were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Foreign Currency Translation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with ASC Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Translation”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the periods presented. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity (deficit), whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
Consulting and Software Development
The company expenses consulting and software development (including research and development) as incurred. The company has had consulting and software development expenses of $321,677 for the year ended August 31, 2013 and $325,420 for the year ended August 31, 2012.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment.” which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model for determining the fair value of stock based compensation.
The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards based upon ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.” ASC 505-50 requires the costs of goods and services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments to be recognized using the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity award, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of the equity award is determined on the measurement date, which is the earlier of the date that a performance commitment is reached or the date that performance is complete. Generally, our awards do not entail performance commitments. When an award vests over time such that performance occurs over multiple reporting periods, we estimate the fair value of the award as of the end of each reporting period and recognize an appropriate portion of the cost based on the fair value on that date. When the award vests, we adjust the cost previously recognized so that the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date the performance is complete.
The Company recognizes the cost associated with share-based awards that have a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the entire award.
Related Parties
Related parties, which can be a corporation, individual, investor or another entity are considered to be related if the party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the Company in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. The Company has these relationships.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements through August 31, 2013 and believes that none of them, including those not yet effective, will have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Currently, the Company does not have material assets, nor does it have operations or a source of revenue sufficient to cover its operation costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The Company has a deficit accumulated since inception (June 2, 2008) through August 31, 2013 of ($1,481,385). The Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through placement of our common stock in order to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in either situation in order to continue as a going concern. The Company has funded its initial operations, from inception to August 31, 2013, by way of issuing common shares and advances from related parties. As of August 31, 2013, the Company had issued 30,000,000 (post stock-split) common shares. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On April 17, 2012, the Company entered into a convertible note with an affiliated company (Venture Capital Clinic Corp.) owned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Steve Adelstein. The note is for a maximum amount of $150,000 (determined from time to time as advances are made) having a stated interest rate of nine percent and is convertible into common shares at $0.03 per share at the sole discretion of the note holder. Both principal and interest are due August 31, 2015 and can be prepaid without penalty. At August 31, 2012, the principal balance of the note outstanding was $87,500 with accrued interest of approximately $2,500. On May 31, 2013, the note amount was converted to common stock, leaving an outstanding balance of principal and interest of $-0- at August 31, 2013.
The Company does not lease or rent any property. Office space and services are provided without charge by an officer / shareholder. Such costs are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements and accordingly, have not been reflected therein. The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities. If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such persons may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.
NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
In August, 2011 and February, 2012, the company filed, amended and restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Florida which:
· | changed the name of the corporation to First Level Entertainment Group, Inc. |
|
|
· | increased the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares and fixed a par value of $0.001 per share, |
|
|

|
|
· | included indemnification provisions customary under Florida law, as well as election not to be governed by the provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act governing affiliated transactions and an election to be governed by the provisions related to control share acquisitions. |

The Company has accumulated net operating loss carryovers of approximately $585,147 as of August 31, 2013 which are available to reduce future taxable income. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes may be subject to annual limitations. A change in ownership may limit the utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards in future years. The tax losses begin to expire in 2033.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On October 17, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates LLC as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods preceding Sadler, Gibb & Associates LLC engagement, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company consulted with Sadler, Gibb & Associates LLC regarding the application of accounting principles to any specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and Sadler, Gibb & Associates LLC did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue or any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event,” as such terms are defined in Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
Item9A. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure controls and procedures
Under the direction of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of August 31, 2013. Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of August 31, 2013 and 2012.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Treasurer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our fourth fiscal quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our President and Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management of is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and financial officer and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
· | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; |
|
|
· | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and |
|
|
· | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
- 7 -
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2013. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. The COSO framework is based upon five integrated components of control: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communications and ongoing monitoring.
Based on the assessment performed, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as of August 31, 2013 and 2012, is not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of its financial reporting and the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Further, management has identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2013 and 2012.
Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective as of August 31, 2013 and 2012 (the “Evaluation Dates”), to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Each of the following is deemed a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting:
· | We do not have an audit committee. While we are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however, it is management’s view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal controls and procedures. |
|
|
· | We did not maintain proper segregation of duties for the preparation of our financial statements. We currently have only one officer overseeing all transactions. This has resulted in several deficiencies, including the lack of control over preparation of financial statements and proper application of accounting |
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in the two items above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our consolidated financial statements in future periods.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to initiate the following series of measures once we have the financial resources to do so:
We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. And, we plan to appoint one or more outside directors to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee, which will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us.
Management believes that the appointment of outside directors to a fully functioning audit committee, would remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
- 8 -
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
