Item 1.  Business


Company Overview


DE Acquisition 4, Inc. (a development stage company) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 24, 2010, with an objective to acquire, or merge with, an operating business.  As of February 28, 2014, the Company had not yet commenced any operations.


The Company is a "blank check" company. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) defines such a company as “a development stage company” that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person; and issues ‘penny stock,’ as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of "blank check" companies in their respective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in its securities, either debt or equity, until the Company concludes a business combination.


The Company was organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation and, to a lesser extent that desires to employ the Company’s funds in its business. The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business (“Business Combination”) rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business. The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the officers and directors of the Company.


Our Business


Our company, based on proposed business activities, is a "blank check" company. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") defines those companies as "any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3 (a)(51) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act") and that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies." Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), we also qualify as a "shell company," because we have no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of "blank check" companies in their respective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. We intend to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.


We were organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation.  Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business. 

 

The analysis of new business opportunities is being undertaken by or under the supervision of our President, Secretary and Treasurer, Ms. Ruth Shepley. As of this date, we have not entered into any definitive agreement with any party, nor have there been any specific discussions with any potential business combination candidate regarding business opportunities for us. We have unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing and participating in potential business opportunities. In our efforts to analyze potential acquisition targets, we will consider the following kinds of factors:


·

Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated market expansion or new products;


·

Competitive position as compared to other firms of similar size and experience within the industry segment as well as within the industry as a whole;


·

Strength and diversity of management, either in place or scheduled for recruitment;


·

Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required funds, to be provided by us or from operations, through the sale of additional securities, through joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources;




4



·

The cost of participation as compared to the perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials;


·

The extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced;


·

The accessibility of required management expertise, personnel, raw materials, services, professional assistance and other required items; and


·

Other relevant factors.


In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be controlling, management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries, and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to our limited capital available for investigation, we may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.

 

No assurances can be given that we will be able to enter into a business combination, as to the terms of a business combination, or as to the nature of the target company.


Competition


We are in a highly competitive market for a small number of business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful business combination. We are and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with and acquisitions of small private and public entities. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including small public companies and venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do; consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination. These competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and consummating a successful business combination.


Intellectual Property


We do not own any patent, trademark, or legally enforceable claim to proprietary intellectual property.


Employees


We have no employees.  The Company officers and directors are currently fulfilling their roles via consulting agreements.


Research and Development Expenditures


We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.


Government Regulation


Government regulation and compliance with environmental laws do not have a material effect on our business. We are subject to the laws and regulations of those jurisdictions in which we plan to operate and sell our products, which are generally applicable to business operations, such as business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes.


Subsidiaries


We do not have any subsidiaries.



Item 1A.  Risk Factors


As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.



Item 1B.  Unresolved Staff Comments


There are no unresolved Staff comments.

Item 2.  Properties


We do not presently lease or own any real property. 



Item 3.  Legal Proceedings


We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.

PART II



Item 5.  Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities


Market Information


We do not have a trading symbol, and our Common Stock is not trading on any stock exchange. We are not aware of any market activity in our stock since its inception and through the date of this filing.


Penny Stock


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 market 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 or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) 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 or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) 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; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) 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, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) 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 (d) a monthly account statement 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, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock should our stock ever be traded on a public market. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.


Holders of Our Common Stock


As of February 28, 2014, we had 10,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by our President, Secretary and Treasurer, Ms. Ruth Shepley.  


Dividends


We have not paid any cash dividends to date and does not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. It is the present intention of management to utilize all available funds for the development of our business.


Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans


We do not have any equity compensation plans.



Item 6.  Selected Financial Data


A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Forward-Looking Statements


Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

 

Plan of Operation in the Next Twelve Months


We were organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.


We do not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be paid with money in our treasury, if any, or with additional money contributed by Ms. Shepley, another officer or director, or another source.

 

During the next 12 months, we anticipate incurring costs related to filing of Exchange Act reports and costs relating to consummating an acquisition. We believe we will be able to meet these costs through use of funds in our treasury and additional amounts, as necessary, to be loaned to or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors.

 

We may consider a business which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering.

 

Ms. Shepley has not had any preliminary contact or discussions with any representative of any other entity regarding a business combination with us. Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.

  

Our management anticipates that it will likely be able to effect only one business combination, due primarily to our limited financing, and the dilution of interest for present and prospective stockholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management's plan to offer a controlling interest to a target business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us, because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

 

We anticipate that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking even the limited additional capital that we will have and/or the perceived benefits of becoming a



8



publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.


Significant Equipment

 

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment for the next twelve months.


Employees


We do not have plans to change the number of our employees during the next twelve months.


Results of Operations for the years ended February 28, 2014 and  2013


.


We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $9,080 for the year ended February 28, 2014, compared with $2,911, for the year ended February 28, 2013.  The entire amount for both periods was attributable to general and administrative expenses, principally costs associated with Exchange Act filings.  .


At February 28, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry- forwards of approximately $16,168 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2025.  No tax benefit has been reported in the February 28, 2014 or February 28, 2013 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of February 28, 2014, we had no current assets, no liabilities and no working capital.  We currently do not engage nor intend to engage in any business activities that provide cash flow until we enter into a successful business combination.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of February 28, 2014, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.


Going Concern


Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We have had no revenues and have generated no operations.


In order to continue as a going concern and achieve a profitable level of operation, we will need, among other things, additional capital resources and to develop a consistent source of revenues.  Management's plans include seeking a merger with an existing operating company.


Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations.  The accompanying financial statements in this report do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.


Critical Accounting Policies


In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There are no critical accounting policies.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements


The company has limited operations and is considered to be in the development stage. In the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company has elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The adoption of this ASU allows the company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage


We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data





REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors

DE Acquisition 4, Inc.

The Woodlands, Texas


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DE Acquisition 4, Inc.  (the “Company”) as of February 28, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DE Acquisition 4, Inc. as of February 28, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered net losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DE ACQUISITION 4, INC.

 Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013


NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ORGANIZATION


Business and Organization


DE Acquisition 4, Inc., a development stage company (“we”, “our” or the “Company”), was incorporated in Delaware on February 24, 2010.  The Company is 100% owned by the Ruth Shepley.  The financial statements presented represent only those transactions of DE Acquisition 4, Inc.  The Company is looking to merge with or acquire an existing company or acquire the technology to begin operations.


As a blank check company, the Company’s business is to pursue a business combination through acquisition, or merger with, an existing company. As of the date of the financial statements, the Company is not conducting negotiations with any target business.  No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in locating or negotiating with any target company.


The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure an acquisition or merger  to operationalize the Company.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The Company follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been reflected herein.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents at February 28, 2014 or February 28, 2013.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share


The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification No. 260, “Earnings Per Share” that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares  outstanding for the period.  The calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. In accordance with ASC No. 260, any anti-dilutive effects on net earnings (loss) per share are excluded.  For the year ended February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013, there were no common stock equivalents.


Income Taxes


The Company follows Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in



16



which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The company has limited operations and is considered to be in the development stage. In the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company has elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The adoption of this ASU allows the company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage


We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.



NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.   The Company has had no revenues and has generated from operations.


In order to continue as a going concern and achieve a profitable level of operations, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources and developing a consistent source of revenues.   Management's plans include seeking a merger with an existing operating company.


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.



NOTE 4 – COMMON STOCK


Holders of shares of common stock, the only class of stock registered under the Company’s Form 10-12G, shall be entitled to cast one vote for each common share held at all stockholders meetings for all purposes, including the election of directors.  The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights.


On February 24, 2010, the Company issued 10,000 shares to Ruth Shepley.



NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES


Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities.  Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are included in the Company’s tax return.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.


The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 39% to pretax income from continuing operations for the periods ended February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013 due to the following:

At February 28, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry- forwards of approximately $19,618 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2025.  No tax benefit has been reported in the February 28, 2014 or February 28, 2013 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.



NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION



17



 

During the year ended February 28, 2014, the shareholders contributed $3,550 for payment of costs associated with filing fees.



NOTE 7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On June 4, 2014, Ruth Shepley, the sole shareholder of DE Acquisition 4, Inc., entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Shire Warwick Lewis Group Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company. Pursuant to the Agreement, Ruth Shepley transferred to Shire Warwick Lewis Group Limited a total of 10,000 shares of our common stock, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares. The transaction was closed concurrently with the effective date of the 16th day of June, 2014.

Item 9.  Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure


None.



Item 9A(T).  Controls and Procedures


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. This rule defines internal control over financial reporting as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  

  

Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions;

 

  

  

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures 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 our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, 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.


Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of February 28, 2014, as the result of a material weakness.   The material weakness results from significant deficiencies in internal control that collectively constitute a material weakness.


A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the registrant’s financial reporting. We had the following significant deficiency at February 28, 2014:


 

We have only one employee to oversee bank reconciliations, posting payables, and so forth, so there are no checks and balances on internal controls. As there is no segregation of duties, this is considered a significant deficiency.


Remediation of Material Weakness


We are unable to remedy the material weakness in our internal controls until we are able to hire additional employees, so that we may then introduce checks and balances on internal controls.  


Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls


Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting are or will be capable of preventing or detecting all errors or all fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements, due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns may occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk.

 

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

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Ruth Shepley, age 67, has been the President and sole Director of Financial Broker Relations, Inc. a financial consulting company, since 1998.  In such capacity, she has run the day to day operations of this company which provides business advisory services for small private companies.  Her services specifically include the hiring of employees, administrative advice, business plan development as well as business coaching as needed for their clients.


Ms. Shepley has owned and operated several small businesses during the last 30 years.  Ms. Shepley was formerly an officer and director of French Peak Resources, Inc. (now known as Confederate Motors, Inc.), a 1934 Exchange Act Company, from October 2008 to February 2009. .  In addition December 12, 2006 to February 1, 2007 she was the President and sole director of Cruisestock, Inc. a public company trading on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board.  In addition, she was the President and sole director of Venture Fund I, Inc. from August 24, 2004 (inception) to May 25, 2006.


Family Relationships


There are no family relationships between or among the directors, executive officers or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors or executive officers.


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings


To  the best of our knowledge, from inception to February 28, 2014, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business  of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.


Audit Committee


We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee. The entire Board of Directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the Board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The Board approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and


Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Stock Option Plans

Item 12.  Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters


The following table sets forth certain information known to us with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of February 28, 2014, by (1) all persons who are beneficial owners of 5% or more of our voting securities, (2) each director, (3) each executive officer, and (4) all directors and executive officers as a group. The information regarding beneficial ownership of our common stock has been presented in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person may be deemed to beneficially own any shares of capital stock as to which such person, directly or indirectly, has or shares voting power or investment power, and to beneficially own any shares of our capital stock as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option or other right. The percentage of beneficial ownership as to any person as of a particular date is calculated by dividing (a) (i) the number of shares beneficially owned by such person plus (ii) the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days by (b) the total number of shares outstanding as of such date, plus any shares that such person has the right to acquire from us within 60 days. Including those shares in the tables does not, however, constitute an admission that the named stockholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of those shares. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power (or shares that power with that person’s spouse) with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that person or entity.

On February 24, 2010, 10,000 shares were issued to Ruth Shepley, our sole officer and director


Except as set forth above, there have been no related party transactions, or any other transactions or relationships required to be disclosed.


We have not:


·

established our own definition for determining whether our director and nominees for directors are "independent" nor has it adopted any other standard of independence employed by any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, though our current directors would not be deemed to be "independent" under any applicable definition given that they are officers of the Company; nor,

·

established any committees of the Board of Directors.


Given the nature of our company, its limited shareholder base and the current composition of management, the Board of Directors does not believe that we require any corporate governance committees at this time. The Board of Directors takes the position that management of a target business will establish:


·

its own Board of Directors,

·

its own definition of 'independent" as related to directors and nominees for directors,

·

committees that will be suitable for its operations after the Company consummates a business combination.
