AMERICAN XANTHAN CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business

 

American Xanthan Corporation (identified in these footnotes as “we” or the Company) is a Wyoming corporation incorporated on December 17, 2013.  The Company is based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, USA.  

 

The Company was organized to operate a Xanthan gum manufacturing & licensing business.  

 

Notes 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated based on the end of period exchange rates from local currency to U.S. dollars. Results of operations are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the period.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Marketing and Advertising

Advertising costs, including media advertising and production costs are expensed when incurred.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be classified as cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily with one large financial institution.

 

Other Intangible and Long-Lived Assets

The Company's long-lived assets primarily consist of computer and office equipment and software, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, which are subject to depreciation over the useful life of the asset.  Long-lived assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may be impaired.  In evaluating an asset for recoverability, the Company estimates the future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition.  If the expected future undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset, is recognized.  No impairments were recorded on long-lived assets for the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

AMERICAN XANTHAN CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)

 

Fixed Assets 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation computed principally using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Impairment of long-lived assets is recognized when the fair value of a long-lived asset is less than its carrying value.  At the end of the current year, no impairment of long-lived assets had occurred, in management’s opinion.

 

Note 3 - Commitments and Contingencies

Contractual Obligations

The Company has not entered into obligations under non-cancelable terms. 

Notes 4 - Issuance of shares:

 

On August 1, 2014 the Company completed its initial public offering and issued a total of 10,000,000 common shares for total proceeds for $100,000.00.

 

On November 13, 2014, the Company issued 500,000 restricted shares of common stock in accordance with an intellectual property Purchase Agreement.

 

Note 5 - Income Taxes:

 

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

 

Under ASC 740-10-25 recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions is required using a “more-likely-than-not" approach.  Management evaluates its tax positions on an annual basis and has determined that as of December 31, 2014 no additional accrual for income taxes is necessary. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed.  

 

The provision for refundable Federal income tax consists of the following:

 

  

Inception,
December 17, 2013

Through

March 31, 2015

Refundable Federal income tax attributable to:     
  Current operations  $0 
  Nondeductible expenses   0 
  Change in deferred tax valuation allowance   0 
    Net refundable amount   0 


The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:

 

  

Inception,

December 17, 2013

Through

March 31, 2015

Deferred tax asset attributable to:     
  Net operating loss carryover  $0 
  Less, Valuation allowance   (0)
    Net deferred tax asset   0 

 

At March 31, 2015, we did not have any unused net operating loss carryover available to offset future taxable income.

Note 6 - New accounting pronouncements:

 

The Company has reviewed all recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

 

Note 7 - Subsequent Events:

 

The Company evaluates events and transactions after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. No reportable subsequent events were found.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) contains forward-looking statements that involve known and unknown risks, significant uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed, or implied, by those forward-looking statements.  You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words may, will, should, could, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates, predicts, intends, potential, proposed, or continue or the negative of those terms.  These statements are only predictions. In evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the exceptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

 

The following review of operations are for the quarter ending March 31, 2015 should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and the Notes.

 

Financial Overview

 

Based upon our current resources, we believe we can maintain operations through the end of 2016. The offering terminated on August 1, 2014 all securities offered were sold. No underwriters were used in the offering. The securities offered were the Company’s common shares, this is the only class of securities the Company has. The securities are not convertible securities. The amount of securities registered was 10,000,000 common shares, the aggregate price of the offering amount registered was $100,000.00, the amount of securities sold was 10,000,000 and the aggregate offering price of the amount sold was $100,000.00. From the effective date of the Securities Act registration statement to the ending date of the reporting period, no expenses incurred for the issuer's account in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities registered for underwriting discounts and commissions, no finders' fees were paid, no expenses were paid to or for underwriters, no other expenses were paid . The total expenses incurred and/or paid in connection with the issuance and distribution was $0.00. All aforementioned amounts of expenses incurred are the actual amount of expenses and not estimates. Such payments were: Not direct or indirect payments to directors, officers, general partners of the issuer or their associates; to persons owning ten (10) percent or more of any class of equity securities of the issuer; and to affiliates of the issuer; or direct or indirect payments to others.

 

From the effective date of the Securities Act registration statement to the ending date of the reporting period, none of the net offering proceeds to the issuer have been used for the construction of a plant, building and facilities; purchase and installation of machinery and equipment; purchases of real estate; acquisition of other business(es); repayment of indebtedness; working capital; temporary investments; and no other purposes for which at least five (5) percent of our total offering proceeds has been used. These are the actual amounts of net offering proceeds used and not estimates. Such payments were not direct or indirect payments to directors, officers, general partners of the issuer or their associates; to persons owning ten (10) percent or more of any class of equity securities of the issuer; and to affiliates of the issuer; or direct or indirect payments to others.

 

Results of Operations

 

Quarter Ended March 31, 2015

 

We were incorporated on December 17, 2013 and completed our public offering on August 1, 2014.

 

On November 13, 2014, American Xanthan Corporation, entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement").   Pursuant to which the Company acquired: (i) all Intellectual Property rights, title and interest in Canadian Patent pending # 2,808,286 'Solid State Fermentation of Xanthan from Potato Pulp' (ii) all Intellectual Property rights, title and interest in US Patent pending #61,923,357 'Solid State Fermentation of Xanthan from Potato Pulp'.  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 500,000 restricted shares of Company’s $0.001 par value common stock to FracFlow Biotechnologies LP.

 

Upon execution of the In Purchase agreement the Company ceased to be a shell Company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. The Company intends to pursue the development of operations through the acquisition and development of Xanthan production technologies.

 

TheAmerican Xanthan Corporation is in the business of acquiring, licensing and marketing patents and technology to manufacture Xanthan from potato waste.

 

Subsequent to the completion of our public offering on August 1st, 2014, our cash assets increased by $86,000.00.

 

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015, we earned no revenues from operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and the Company's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2015 due to the Company’s limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review.

Management is in the process of determining how best to change our current system and implement a more effective system to insure that information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this issue, and intends to developed procedures to address them to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources. While management is working on a plan, no assurance can be made at this point that the implementation of such controls and procedures will be completed in a timely manner or that they will be adequate once implemented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
