CASTLE HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

(Unaudited and Unreviewed)

 

1. ORGANIZATION

 

Castle Holding Corp. ("CHC") is a holding company which was incorporated in Nevada on June 13, 1986. The subsidiaries of CHC are as follows:

 

1.

Castle Royalties Corp. (incorporated in New York April 11, 1991) – name changed from Church Street Securities Corp. on March 16, 2015; assignee of License Agreement with Emergent Health Corporation effective March 16, 2015 (see Note 5).

2.

SAS Health and Beauty Corp. (incorporated in New York May 27, 1994) – name changed from Wall Street Indians, Ltd. on March 31, 2015; manufactures and markets a skin care product.

3.

The Unlisted Stock Market Corporation (incorporated in New York December 9, 1999) – no operations from inception.

4.

Shark Venture Capital Inc. (incorporated in Nevada December 22, 2014) – plans to engage in venture capital activities.

 

Effective November 17, 2014, CHC spun off all of the shares of its then wholly owned subsidiary Castle Advisors, Inc. ("CAI") to CHC's common stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 10, 2014. CAI, which was incorporated in New York December 23, 1993, acts as a financial consultant.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim financial statements – The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation.

 

The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending September 30, 2016. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes related thereto for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

 

Principles of consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CHC and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of estimates – The preparation of the 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 those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Marketable securities Marketable securities consist of trading securities valued at market. All fair value measurements are based on Level 1 inputs (i.e., closing trading prices of respective marketable securities). Unrealized gains and losses are reflected in income ($11,020 and ($47,705) for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively).

 

Inventory – Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first–in, first–out method) or market (net realizable value). At December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, inventory consists of bottles of a skin care product called SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray.

 

Revenue recognition – Revenues are recognized upon delivery of the products, at which time title passes to the customer, provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is deemed probable.

 

Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

 

Net income (loss) per common share – Basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive convertible preferred shares outstanding.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements – Certain accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and therefore have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

5. LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH EMERGENT HEALTH CORPORATION

 

On November 20, 2014, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement involving a change in control of CHC, CHC was assigned effective January 1, 2015 the License Agreement between Cappello's, Inc, (Licensor) and EMGE (Licensee) dated August 26, 2014 (the "EMGE License Agreement") in exchange for the issuance of 2,000,000 restricted shares of CHC common stock. The EMGE License Agreement was valued at its estimated fair value of $30,000 based upon 2014 royalties.

 

The EMGE License Agreement provides for Licensee's payment of quarterly royalty payments to Licensor equal to 5% of the first $1,000,000 of annual net sales of the Licensed Products, 4% of the next $1,000,000 of annual net sales, 3% of the next $1,000,000 of annual net sales, 2% of the next $2,000,000 of annual net sales, and 1% of all additional annual net sales. The term of the EMGE License Agreement expires upon the expiration of the last to expire of the Patent Rights. In the event the Base Sales of any one or more of the Licensed Products do not increase by 15% per year over each prior calendar year ("Underperforming Licensed Products") and the Licensee does not pay royalties based on 15% annual increases in Base Sales for the Underperforming Licensed Product(s), Licensor may terminate the license for such Underperforming Licensed Product(s) or convert the license from an exclusive license to a non-exclusive license for such Underperforming Licensed Product(s). During the term, Licensor is to keep Licensee informed of the progress of the Patent Rights in the U.S. Patent Office and is to direct and control all aspects of the prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights using patent counsel of its choice; Licensee is to pay all reasonable costs and fees attributable to the Patent Rights including patent maintenance fees, government fees and attorney fees.

 

On June 17, 2015, pursuant to a Swenson-Emergent Loan and Security Agreement, the Company consented to EMGE's grant of a security interest in the License Agreement to a lender.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

 

Class A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

From March 2001 to September 2001, CHC sold a total of 706,750 shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of $706,750.

 

Each share of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time into one share of the Company's Common Stock at the election of the Class A Convertible Preferred Stockholder. At any time, CHC may require conversion of the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares provided that CHC Common Stock closes at a price of $1.50 per share or higher for more than 20 consecutive business days. At any time after one year from the issue date of the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares, CHC may require conversion of the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares provided that CHC pay the Class A Convertible Preferred Stockholder $0.50 per Class A Convertible Preferred Share.

 

The Class A Convertible Preferred Shares are non-voting and have a first priority, up to $1.00 per Class A Convertible Preferred Share, in the event of liquidation of CHC.

 

As a provision of the private offering, CHC used 33% of the gross proceeds of the offering to purchase $380,000 face value of U.S. Treasury Strips (the "Strips") maturing August 15, 2011.

 

The proceeds from the Strips were available to holders of the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares and were in addition to the other assets of CHC. The Strips, and upon maturity, subsequent investments purchased from such proceeds, were to be held by CHC to secure payment of the investment in the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares in the event of liquidation of CHC. The protection afforded by the Strips was to terminate upon the conversion of the Class A Convertible Preferred Shares and the Strips, or their proceeds, were to thereafter be available to CHC.

On January 7, 2015, CHC offered its Class A Convertible Preferred shareholders the ability to convert each one (1) share of CHC Class A Convertible Preferred stock owned into two (2) restricted shares of restricted CHC common stock (the "Offer"). Through March 31, 2015, 18 of the Class A Convertible Preferred shareholders (representing 179,500 shares, or approximately 26% of the 699,250 issued and outstanding shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock) responded to the Offer. 17 of the responding shareholders (representing 177,000 shares) accepted the Offer; the 1 other responding shareholder (representing 2,500 shares) declined the Offer. Accordingly, in May 2015, CHC issued a total of 354,000 restricted shares of CHC common stock to the 17 Class A Convertible Preferred shareholders who accepted the Offer.

 

The 17 accepting shareholders represented approximately 98.6% of the responding shareholders' shares and constituted a quorum. On February 15, 2015, based on the results of the Offer, the majority stockholder and Board of Directors approved the release of restrictions on the proceeds from the Strips.

 

Class B Preferred Stock

 

Effective June 1, 2015, CHC issued 100,000 shares of Class B Preferred Stock (valued at $10,000) to John V. Cappello, chief executive officer of the Company, in connection with a $15,000 loan made to SAS Health and Beauty Corp., subsidiary of CHC (see Note 6). Each share of Class B Preferred Stock is entitled to 100 votes per share but has no conversion, liquidation, or dividend rights.

On November 20, 2014, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement involving a change in control of CHC, CHC issued a total of 7,000,000 restricted shares of CHC common stock to Cappello's Inc. ("Cappello's") in exchange for (1) Cappello's assignment of a License Agreement between Cappello's and EMGE dated August 26, 2014 to CHC effective January 1, 2015 (2,000,000 shares) (see Note 5. above), (2) 2,000,000 restricted shares of EMGE common stock (2,000,000 shares) (see Note 4. above), and (3) $45,000 cash (3,000,000 shares).

Based on management's present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of $403,350 attributable to the future utilization of $1,137,149 of net operating loss carryforwards and $49,175 of capital loss carryforwards will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2015. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carryforwards expire as follows: $180,132 in year 2021, $694,345 in year 2022, $135,943 in year 2023, $66,021 in year 2024, $39,208 in year 2025, and $21,500 in year 2035. The capital loss carryforward of $49,175 expires in year 2018.

 

Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

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

 

GENERAL

 

Castle Holding Corp. ("CHC") is a holding company which was incorporated in Nevada on June 13, 1986. On September 30, 1987, CHC acquired Castle Securities Corp., a New York corporation which operated as a securities broker dealer from November 1, 1985 to October 31, 2003. On April 11, 1991, CHC formed Church Street Securities Corp., a New York corporation which operated as a securities broker dealer from October 26, 1995 to January 6, 2005. Since January 2005, CHC and its subsidiaries have had minimal business operations and operating revenues.

 

Commencing July 2015, CHC's subsidiary SAS Health and Beauty Corp. has engaged in the production and sales of a skin care product called SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Three Months ended December 31, 2015 compared to Three Months ended December 31, 2014.

 

Sales increased $4,779 from $0 in 2014 to $4,779 in 2015 (all from sales of the SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray product, which was launched in July 2015).

 

Cost of sales increased $761 from $0 in 2014 to $761 in 2015 (all from sales of the SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray).

 

Gross profit increased $4,018 from $0 in 2014 to $4,018 in 2015 (all from sales of the SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray). The gross profit percentage of sales in 2015 was approximately 84%.

 

Total operating expenses increased $31,135 from $2,205 in 2014 to $33,340 in 2015. The increase was primarily due to $20,000 of consulting fees incurred in 2015 relating to a Financial Public Relations Agreement executed in November 2015 and $8,458 of selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by our subsidiary SAS Health and Beauty Corp. primarily in connection with the launch of the SAS Flower of Youth Facial Lift Spray product.

 

Other expense – net decreased $19,587 from $40,745 in 2014 to $21,158 in 2015. The decrease was due primarily to the $58,725 improvement in net gain (loss) on marketable securities from a loss of $47,705 in 2014 to a gain of $11,020 in 2015, offset by a $40,000 expense recognized in 2015 from impairment of our investment in Emergent Health Corporation common stock. For both periods, substantially all of the marketable securities were invested in TAXI common stock which price per share increased from $7.58 at September 30, 2015 to $7.96 at December 31, 2015.

 

Net loss increased $7,530 from $42,950 in 2014 to $50,480 in 2015. The increase was due to the $31,135 increase in operating expenses, offset partially by the $4,018 increase in gross profit and the $19,587 decrease in other expense – net.

 

 
15
 

  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At December 31, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $45,224, total assets of $429,464, total liabilities of $19,298, and total stockholders' equity of $410,166. Of the $429,464 total assets at December 31, 2015, $230,840 represents the quoted value of 29,000 shares TAXI common stock and $120,000 represents the carrying value of 2,000,000 restricted shares of Emergent Health Corporation (EMGE) common stock.

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $20,745 from $65,969 at September 30, 2015 to $45,224 at December 31, 2015. The $20,745 decrease was due primarily to the $50,480 net loss and the $11,020 increase in marketable securities, offset partially by the $40,000 non-cash impairment of investment in Emergent Health Corporation common stock.

 

The Company currently has no other agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.

 

We currently have no commitments with any person for any capital expenditures.

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
