ROI LAND INVESTMENTS LTD.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2014

(unaudited)

 

 

Note 1 – Organization, Presentation and Going Concern

 

Organization

 

ROI Land Investments Ltd. was incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2007 under the name Conex MD, Inc.

 

As of September 17, 2013, ROI Land Investments Ltd. was a provider of specialized healthcare staffing to small and medium sized businesses. The Company had recruited healthcare professionals on assignments of varied duration and in permanent positions with clients in the United States. The services included hiring administration, information technology, sales and at the executive level.

 

On September 17, 2013, Lamar Investment Ltd (“Lamar”) purchased 5,000,000 shares of restricted stock of Conex MD, Inc., representing 59% of the shares in the Company from its two then-current Directors, Dr. Jacob Bar Ilan and Dr. Ely Steinberg for $230,000.00 in cash. Subsequently the shareholders of the Company voted in the two current Directors, Patrick Bragoli & Sebastien Cliche, as noted in an 8-K filed September 25, 2013. Subsequently, on May 19, 2014, Mr. Bragoli resigned as Director. Additionally, on October 28, 2013, FINRA gave final approval to the name change to ROI Land Investments Ltd and the ticker symbol to the ROII to better reflect the new direction of the Company.

 

ROI Land Investments Ltd now specializes in land development opportunities both in Canada as well as internationally. The Company's business model consist of acquiring attractive land free of zoning restrictions, obtaining the necessary permits, outsourcing developments of the infrastructure and profiting from the sale of the subdivided land units to large residential and commercial building developers. Our business model also consists of providing financing opportunities to qualified joint venture partners.

 

On November 15, 2013, the Company organized ROI DEV Canada Inc. (“ROI DEV”), a Canada Chart corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary. ROI DEV was organized to acquire and manage land acquisitions in Canada.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reported in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.

 

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2013 audited annual financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 14, 2014.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss of $2,985,999 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and has incurred cumulative losses since inception of $3,108,524. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its abilities to generate revenues, to continue to raise investment capital, and develop and implement its business plan.  No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

Company History

 

On December 13, 2007, the Company was incorporated in Nevada. We were engaged in the business of providing specialized healthcare staffing to small and medium sized businesses.

 

Pursuant to stock a Subscription Agreement dated December 13, 2007, we offered and sold 2,500,000 shares of our common stock to Dr. Ely Steinberg our President and a Director, at a purchase price of $0.0001 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $250. Pursuant to a stock Subscription Agreement dated December 13, 2007, we offered and sold 2,500,000 shares of our common stock to Dr. Jacob Bar-Ilan our Secretary, Treasurer and a Director, at a purchase price of $0.0001 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $250. Between December 2009 and January 2010, we accepted subscriptions for 3,475,500 shares of our common stock from 36 investors at a purchase price of $0.02 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $69,510.

Dr. Ely Steinberg has served as our President and Chief Executive Officer from December 13, 2007, until September 17, 2013, when Lamar Investment Ltd purchased 5,000,000 shares of restricted stock of ROI Land Investments Ltd., representing 59% of the shares in the Company from its two then-current Directors, Dr. Jacob Bar Ilan and Dr. Ely Steinberg for $230,000.00 in cash. Subsequently the shareholders of the Company voted in two Directors, Patrick Bragoli & Sebastien Cliche, as noted in an 8-K filed September 25, 2013. Subsequently, on May 19, 2014, Mr. Bragoli resigned as Director. Additionally, on October 28, 2013, FINRA gave final approval to the name change to ROI Land Investments Ltd and the ticker symbol to the ROII to better reflect the new direction of the Company.

 

ROI Land Investments Ltd now specializes in land development opportunities both in Canada as well as internationally. The Company's business model consist of acquiring attractive land free of zoning restrictions, obtaining the necessary permits, outsourcing developments of the infrastructure and profiting from the sale of the subdivided land units to large residential and commercial building developers. Our business model also consists of providing financing opportunities to qualified joint venture partners.

 

On November 15, 2013, the Company organized ROI DEV Canada Inc. (“ROI DEV”), a Canada Chart corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary. ROI DEV was organized to acquire and manage land acquisitions in Canada.

 

On March 24, 2014, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ROI DEV, executed a Definitive Agreement for the purchase of land from 9284-0784 Québec Inc. The land consists of 1,971,000 square feet in suburban Quebec and is known as the “Beauport/Cambert Project”. Per the terms of the Agreement, the total cost of the purchase is $5,299,879 (CAD 5,913,723), of which $268,830 (CAD 300,000) was tendered upon execution as a firm initial deposit, with the remaining balance of $5,031,019 (CAD 5,613,723) to be paid on or before June 1, 2014. As the balances were not paid by June 1, 2014, the Company and 9284-0784 Quebec Inc. agreed to extend the due date and the Company paid additional deposits totaling $761,800 (CAD 850,000) and finance charges on the outstanding balance of $210,346 (CAD 234,709). The Company’s former director, Patrick Bragoli, and current CEO and Chairman, Sebastien Cliche, each own 16.67% of 9284-0784 Quebec Inc.

 

On June 17, 2014, ROI DEV entered into a Framework Agreement with Coast to Coast Holding Ltd. (“CTC”), a Canadian corporation. Under the terms of the agreement, ROI DEV will provide funding to CTC in the form of mortgage notes payable for property development projects, and provide financial and real estate advisory services, for a period of up to ten years. ROI DEV has the right to make the loan or not and each individual loan will be evidenced by its own promissory note with terms agreed on by the parties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, ROI DEV funded a total of five loans totaling $2,091,254 (CAD 2,333,468).

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company initialized a convertible note payable offering to raise up to a total of $5,500,000. The bonds will for a term of three years bearing interest at 8% to 10% per annum. As of September 30, 2014, the Company received a total of $2,824,139 from the offering. This amount is being held in escrow until the offering is closed, which at that time individual note agreements will be issued to the noteholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

Historically, we have funded our working capital needs through sales of common stock and convertible notes payable and advances from officers and shareholders. Future cash needs for working capital, acquisitions and capital expenditures may require management to seek additional equity or obtain credit facilities. The sale of additional equity could result in additional dilution to the Company's shareholders. A portion of the Company's cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or projects. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of such businesses or projects.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we funded our operations through the sales of common stock, commons stock subscriptions and convertible notes payable, while for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we funded our operations through cash advanced from an officer. Our principal use of funds during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 has been for the down payment on the acquisition of land, the financing of mortgage notes payable and for general corporate expenses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources during the Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the Nine months ended September 30, 2013

 

As of September 30, 2014, we had cash of $3,299,200 and working capital of $5,237,322. The Company used cash in operations of $1,308,214 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to cash used in operations of $11,385 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was attributable to the Company's net loss of $2,985,999, increased by interest accrued on notes receivable of $22,474 and the net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $133,718 and offset by stock based consulting fees of $1,833,977. Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was attributable to the Company's net loss of $15,929 offset by interest accrued on notes payable of $1,650 and the net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2,894.

Cash used in investing activities was $3,395,655 and $-0- for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Cash provided by financing activities was $8,078,910 and $10,810 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 included $2,824,139 of proceeds from the sale of convertible notes payable subscriptions, proceeds from the sale of common stock of $1,301,894 and proceeds from common stock subscriptions of $4,145,063, offset by amounts paid to a shareholder for advances of $2,800 and issuance costs on proceeds received for the sale of common stock and subscriptions of $189,386.

From October 1, 2014 through November 12, 2014, the Company received $1,439,886 for subscriptions to purchase 4,113,959 shares of common stock.

 

On October 14, 2014, ROI DEV closed on the purchase of the land known as the “Beauport/Cambert Project”. The total cost of the purchase was $5,510,225 (CAD 6,148,432).

 

In addition, we will require additional financing during the current fiscal year to meet our working capital needs.

 

Going Concern

 

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this conclusion by our independent auditors.

 

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time and raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

There is no assurance that our operations will be profitable. Our continued existence and plans for future growth depend on our ability to obtain the additional capital necessary to operate either through the generation of revenue or the issuance of additional debt or equity.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Critical Accounting Policies

   

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different future conditions.

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

   

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company's management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act")) as of September 30, 2014.
