NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2015

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Description of Business Avangard Capital Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation is referred to in this report as “we”, “us”, “our”, “ACG”, the “Company” or “Avangard Capital Group.”

 

We were incorporated June 13, 2012 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our executive offices are located at 2708 Commerce Way, Suite 300, Philadelphia, PA 19154.

 

We were an independent auto sales finance company that provides floor plan financing for independent used car dealers based on the value of collateral (the car) as determined by us using the automobile industry’s nationally-recognized valuation sources. We maintain licenses to operate in the states of [New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida]. We commenced business June 22, 2012 with the purchase of all floor plan receivables from Avangard Auto Finance, Inc. (“AAF”), an affiliate. Pursuant to an Assignment Agreement with AAF dated June 13, 2012, we acquired AAF’s floor plan financing portfolio for $151,979, the face value of the contracts plus accrued interest and fees at that time.

 

In January 2013 we received approval and were licensed by the States of Florida and New Jersey as a Sales Finance Company. In February 2013, we were licensed in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a Sales Finance Company. These licenses permit us to expand our operations to providing financing for auto sales by dealers. We have not commenced operations in Florida or New Jersey as we are evaluating the feasibility of expanding into these markets. In addition, we have suspended financing new loans as we explore alternative opportunities for our future growth.

 

On March 26, 2013 we acquired certain retail installment contract receivables from AAF and Avangard Financial Group, Inc., a related party (“AFG”) for $102,250. The receivables consisted of an aggregate principal balance of approximately $141,868 for current loans receivables and approximately $323,449 for non-current loans receivables. We recovered our initial investment and earned approximately 20% in interest on the investment.

 

On February 19, 2014 we transferred all remaining loans receivable to AAF as we determined that the outstanding balances were either uncollectible or difficult to collect and the Company did not believe that pursuing further collection efforts was a good use of the Company’s resources.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2015 we repossessed 18 vehicles. Of the 18 vehicles we repossessed we sold 14 vehicles at auction for a total of $116,600, less $3,958 selling costs and $31,811 repair costs.

 

At March 31, 2015 our inventory consisted of one vehicle with a value of $6,825.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements, and in our opinion reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP and SEC regulations for interim financial statements. The results for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any subsequent interim periods. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes to those statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended June 30, 2014 filed with the SEC on September 30, 2014.

 

Use of Estimates

 

We use estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three month or less when purchased.

 

F-5
 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Interest income from floor plan financing receivable is recognized using the interest method. Accrual of income on finance receivables is suspended when a contract is contractually delinquent for ninety (90) days or more. The accrual is resumed when the contract becomes contractually current and past due interest is recognized at that time.

 

Origination Fees are recognized for services provided during the loan origination process at the point in time the loan is funded.

 

The Company accounts for its investment in floor plan financing receivables using the interest method, under ASC 310 pools of accounts are established based on certain common risk criteria. Each pool is recorded at cost and is accounted for as a single unit for the recognition of income, principal payments and loss provision.

 

The Company accounts for its investment in retail installment contract receivables it acquired on March 26, 2013 using the cost recovery method as the Company’s collections on this particular pool of accounts cannot be reasonably predicted. Under the cost recovery method, no income is recognized until the cost of the retail installment contract receivables portfolio has been fully recovered. This pool of accounts can become fully amortized (zero carrying balance on the balance sheet) while still generating cash collections. In this case, all cash collections are recognized as revenue when received.

 

Floor Plan Financing Receivable

 

Floor plan financing receivable consists of purchased automobiles, which were assigned to us upon acquisition. The titles to the automobiles, which serve as security for the payment of the purchased contracts, are held by us.

 

As of March 31, 2015 there are no floor plan financing receivables.

 

We perform periodic evaluations of the adequacy of the allowance for losses taking into consideration the past loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, as well as recovery potential of any underlying collateral, personal guarantees and current economic conditions. Any increases in the allowance for losses subsequent to the acquisition of the contract are charged to earnings.

 

Our primary floor plan customer defaulted on their agreement in February 2014. The floor plan agreement carried personal guarantees and confessions of judgment, in addition to first lien on all vehicles subject to the floor plan agreement. In March 2014, the customer filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. We repossessed 18 of the 21 vehicles subject to the floor plan agreement from the debtor prior to its Chapter 11 filing. Additionally, there is a question of the legality of the debtor’s sale of four (4) vehicles which were subject to financing. Since we are unable to determine the exact amount of ultimate losses, on March 31, 2014 we provided a reserve for uncollectible receivables of $115,000.

 

Inventory

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2015 we repossessed an additional 4 vehicles. Of the 18 vehicles we repossessed during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 we sold 14 vehicles at auction for a total recovery of $116,600, less $3,958 selling costs and $31,811 repair costs. The value of the floor plan receivables related to the vehicles sold was $123,550.

 

At March 31, 2015 of the remaining 4 vehicles, 1 was sold in April 2015 for $6,825, and the remaining 3 vehicles are considered unsellable. Two vehicles were damaged to the extent that repairs were more costly than the value of the cars; one vehicle is being withheld from sale pending a court determination as to whether the vehicle was properly repossessed from a consumer. The carrying value of the 3 vehicles that are considered unsellable in inventory was $33,378. Since any recovery is doubtful the inventory value of the unsellable vehicles was charged to bad debts.

 

Management has determined the proceeds from the sale of the remaining vehicles, if any, cannot be reasonable predicted.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income refers to revenue, expenses, gains, and losses that under GAAP are recorded as an element of shareholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains on marketable securities categorized as available-for-sale.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s assets exposed to credit risk are cash and finance and interest receivables.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the company had no revenue. For the nine months ended March 31, 2014 one significant customer accounted for 100% for both revenue and accounts receivable.

 

The Company maintains its cash balances in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured financial institutions. At times, cash balances may exceed the maximum insurance offered by FDIC.

 

F-6
 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Fixed assets are recorded at their historical cost upon acquisition or cost of construction. The assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their statutory lives. The fixed asset categories and their estimated lives are as follows:

 

Office Equipment 5 years

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company has incurred net operating loss for financial-reporting and tax-reporting purposes. Accordingly, for Federal and state income tax purposes, the benefit for income taxes has been offset entirely by a valuation allowance against the related federal and state deferred tax asset for the nine months ended March 31, 2015

 

NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES

 

The net deferred tax asset consists of the following:

 

   March 31, 2015   June 30, 2014 
Deferred Tax Asset  $326,177   $250,181 
Less: Valuation Allowance   (326,177)   (250,181)
Net Deferred Tax Assets  $-   $- 

 

As of March 31, 2014, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of $829,879 that can be utilized to offset future taxable income for Federal and State income tax purposes through 2024, generating a maximum deferred tax benefit of $326,177 by applying Federal and State statutory tax rates. The Company applied a 100% valuation reserve against the deferred tax benefit, as the realization of the benefit is not certain.

 

The following tax years remain subject to examination by the respective tax jurisdictions.

NOTE 3 - COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK

 

On June 20, 2014 the Board of Directors authorized the completion of the Reverse Stock Split, and effective as of June 30, 2014, we completed a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock on a 1 for 10 basis (the “Reverse Stock Split”) . Throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, each instance that refers to a number of shares of our common stock refers to the number of shares of common stock after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, unless otherwise indicated. No fractional shares of common stock were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

 

As of March 31, 2015 we are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock of which 10,781,466 are issued and outstanding.

 

On July 10, 2014, the Company agreed to issue to Friedman Financial Group, LLC, a related party, 9,250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for $925. Simon Friedman, the Company’s CEO and Chairman of the Board, has voting and dispositive control over securities held by Friedman Financial Group, LLC.

 

On July 10, 2014, the Company agreed to issue to Jerry Kindrachuk 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for $50.

 

On July 10, 2014, the Company agreed to issue to Arkady “Eric” Rayz, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, 9,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for services that were valued at $1.

 

On July 10, 2014, the Company agreed to issue to Robert Cornaglia, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, 9,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for services that were valued at $1.

 

We are authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Convertible Preferred Stock Series A. On December 29, 2014 the Board of Directors approved the redemption of 320,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock Series A at $1.00 per share.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

 

A summary of the status of our outstanding common stock purchase warrants granted as of March 31, 2015 and changes during the period is as follows:

 

   Shares   Weighted 
   Underlying   Average 
   Warrants   exercise price 
Outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2014   2,867   $0.20 
Additions   -    - 
Outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2015   2,867   $0.20

Number of Warrants        
outstanding and       Remaining contractual
exercisable   Exercise Price   life (Years)
2,867   $0.20   0.63

 

NOTE 4 - LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company’s potential dilutive shares, which include convertible preferred shares and shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, have not been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result would be antidilutive. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce net loss per share. All potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of the dilutive net loss per share for the period presented because the effect would have been antidilutive. Such potential common shares consist of the following:

 

   March 31, 2015   March 31, 2014 
Convertible preferred stock   175,500    271,500 
Warrants attached to units sold   2,867    2,867 

 

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

We entered into a lease agreement for office space with Commerce Way, LLC (“CWL”). CWL is owned by DJS Investments, LLC and SELF, LP. SELF, LP is a shareholder of Friedman Financial Group, who is a principal shareholder of our company. The lease requires monthly payments, commencing August 1, 2012, of $2,500 on a month to month basis. No security deposit was required. The company suspended operations and terminated the lease with Commerce Way, LLC. Effective January 2015 the company resumed paying $2,500 per month rent on a month to month basis. Rent expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was $7,500 and $22,500 respectively.

 

On March 26, 2013 we entered into a Retail Installment Contract Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Avangard Auto Finance, Inc. and Avangard Financial Group, Inc. (the “Sellers”), both of whom are our affiliates. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to pay the Sellers $102,250 (the “Purchase Price”) to purchase certain of their retail installment contract receivables as of the date of the agreement. These amounts included an aggregate principal balance of approximately $141,868 for current loans receivables (the “Current Loans”) and an aggregate principal balance of approximately $323,449 for non-current loans receivables (the “Non-Current Loans”). The Sellers guaranteed to us that we will recover no less than 70% of the aggregate amount of the Current Loans. If we recover less than 70% of the aggregate amount of the Current Loans, the Sellers shall pay the difference to us upon demand. On February 19, 2014 we transferred all remaining loans receivable to AAF as we determined that the outstanding balances were either uncollectible or difficult to collect and the Company did not believe that pursuing further collection efforts was a good use of the Company’s resources.

 

 On July 10, 2014, the Board of Directors accepted Subscription Agreements for the purchase of 9,768,000 shares of Common Stock at par value $0.0001 per share. Friedman Financial Group, LLC, a related party and the majority shareholder, subscribed for 9,250,000 shares of Common Stock.

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

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results

 

This report contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on September 30, 2014:

 

Our limited operating history and ability to achieve profitability.
   
Our ability to assure that related party transactions are fair to our company.
   
Our ability to manage growth in our business.
   
The impact of the volatility in the worldwide credit and equity markets.
   
The departure of our CEO, director and principal financial officer has increased our dependence on the services provided by Simon Friedman, Chairman of the Board of Directors and interim CEO, who can exercise disproportionate voting control over corporate decisions.
   
The super voting power of our interim CEO and director who holds shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
   
Write-Offs for losses and defaults on our floor plan receivables.
   
The impact of changes in interest rates.
   
Increased costs as a result of becoming a reporting company.
   
Our ability to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting.
   
The affects on our stock price as a result of sales of our common stock by existing shareholders pursuant to Rule 144.

 

We caution that the factors described herein and other factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

 

OVERVIEW

 

We were an independent auto sales finance company that provides floor plan financing and auto financing for independent used car dealers. The loans made are based on the value of collateral (the car) as determined by us using the automobile industry’s nationally-recognized valuation sources. We maintain our licenses to operate in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Florida. The Company has suspended financing new loans while Management and the Board of Directors explore strategic alternatives including, but not limited to, possible sale of a controlling interest in the company to allow for our future growth.

 

On March 26, 2013, we acquired certain retail installment contract receivables from our affiliates, AAF and AFG, for $102,250. The receivables consisted of an aggregate principal balance of approximately $141,868 for current loan receivables and approximately $323,449 for non-current loan receivables. The sellers guaranteed to us that we will recover no less than 70% of the aggregate amount of the current loans. If we recover less than 70% of that amount, the sellers agreed to pay the difference to us upon demand. In 2014, we recovered our entire investment in the loan portfolio and collected 100% of the aggregate amount paid by the Company to acquire the loan portfolio. On February 19, 2014, we transferred all remaining loans receivable to AAF, as we determined that the outstanding balances were either uncollectible or difficult to collect and the Company did not believe that pursuing further collection efforts was a good use of the Company’s resources.

Recent Developments

 

Effective June 30, 2014, we amended and restated our articles of incorporation in order to effectuate a 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split of our issued and outstanding common stock. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of our pre-Reverse Stock Split common stock was combined and reclassified into one share of our common stock. No fractional shares of common stock were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, each instance that refers to a number of shares of our common stock, refers to the number of shares of common stock after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, unless otherwise indicated.

  

We define our accounting periods as follows:

 

  “fiscal 2013” - July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013
     
  “fiscal 2014” - July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014
     
  “fiscal 2015” - July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Revenue

 

Since the Company suspended operations in June 2014 it has $0 revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $3,453 and $52,945 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 respectively.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Total selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $48,606 to $78,114 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. Total operating expenses decreased $317,571 to $213,893 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. This decrease is primarily a result of a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with our suspension of financing new loans.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 our expenses were comprised primarily of 49,447 related to legal, accounting and SEC compliance costs, $3,684 in office expenses, $11,280 for occupancy expenses, $5,328 for auto repossession services, $8,376 for travel. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015 our expenses were comprised primarily of $112,683 related to legal, accounting and SEC compliance costs, $15,757, for office expenses, $11,280 for occupancy expenses, $21,633 for auto repossession services, $4,506 for wages and benefits, and $14,657 for travel and entertainment.

 

Other Income

 

Other income is comprised of interest, dividends and realized gains from the sale of marketable securities. Total other income decreased to $26 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to $1,289 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as a result of the decreased cash resources due to suspension of activities. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015 other income decreased to $26,680 from $64,733 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 mostly due to a reduction in income from investments.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss decreased $152,103 to $111,466 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. In addition, our net loss decreased $226,573 to $187,213 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. These decreases are a result of a reduction in our operating expenses and revenue as discussed above.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. As of March 31, 2015 our working capital deficit amounted to $17,482, a decrease of $505,837 as compared to $488,355 as of June 30, 2014. The Company has entered into a financing agreement with Simon Friedman, our Chief Executive Officer and Director, to provide a line of credit sufficient to finance corporate expenses while the Company pursues new business opportunities. The line of credit has a current limit of $30,000, payable on demand at no interest.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2015 we repossessed 18 vehicles. Of the 18 vehicles we sold 14 vehicles at auction for a total of $116,600, less $3,959 in selling costs and $31,811 repair costs.

 

At March 31, 2015 one vehicle is held for sale in inventory and the three remaining vehicles are considered unsellable.

   

We financed operations through cash flows from financing activities transactions and to a lesser extent, cash generated from our operations. Net cash used in operating activities was $84,673 and $265,851 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively,

  

Net cash provided by investing activities was $0 and $412,069 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was $319,023; $320,000 paid for the redemption of 320,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock Series A, and the receipt of $977 stock subscription receivable. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $135,996 stemming from the sale of Convertible Preferred Stock Series A.

Cash Requirements

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on management’s ability to develop new lines of business.

 

We do not currently have any contractual restrictions on our ability to incur debt and, accordingly we could incur significant amounts of indebtedness to finance operations. Any such indebtedness could contain covenants that would restrict our operations.

 

Although we experienced a reduction in revenues as a result of the default and bankruptcy of our primary floor plan customer, we have adequate resources committed by current shareholders to operate at a minimal level as we have suspended financing new loans while we explore strategic alternatives.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. As of March 31, 2015 we have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, who is also our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO who is also our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2015. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO who is also our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2015.

 

In addition, management identified the following material weakness and significant deficiencies in its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015:

 

Material Weakness - The Company did not maintain effective controls over certain aspects of the financial reporting process because we lacked a sufficient complement of personnel with a level of accounting expertise and an adequate supervisory review structure that is commensurate with the Company’s financial reporting requirements.
   
Significant Deficiencies - Inadequate segregation of duties.

  

We expect to be materially dependent upon a third party to provide us with accounting consulting services for the foreseeable future. Until such time as we have a chief financial officer with the requisite expertise in U.S. GAAP, there are no assurances that the material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will not result in errors in our financial statements which could lead to a restatement of those financial statements.

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, 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. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

 

Changes in Internal Control

 

There were no changes identified in connection with our internal control over financial reporting 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.
