FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Report"), in particular the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in Item 2 herein ("MD&A") contains certain "forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements give expectations or forecasts of future events. The reader can identify these forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as "believe(s)," "goal(s)," "target(s)," "estimate(s)," "anticipate(s)," "forecast(s)," "project(s)," (plan(s)," "intend(s)," "expect(s)," "might," may" and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating, financial performance or financial condition. Forward-looking statements, in particular, include statements relating to future actions, prospective services or products, future performance or results of current and anticipated services or products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, trends of operations and financial results.

 

Any or all forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong, and, accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. These statements are based on current expectations and current the current economic environment. They involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These statements are not guarantees of future performance; actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many such factors will be important in determining the Company's actual results and financial condition. The reader should consider the following list of general factors that could affect the Company's future results and financial condition.

 

Among the general factors that could cause actual results and financial condition to differ materially from estimated results and financial condition are:

 

 

· The success or failure of management's efforts to implement its business strategy

 

· The ability of the Company to raise sufficient capital to meet operating requirements

 

· The uncertainty of consumer demand for our services;

 

· The ability of the Company to compete with major established publishers;

 

· New competitors and the development of new services by new and existing competitors;

 

· Absolute and relative performance of our services;

 

· The effect of changing economic conditions;

 

· The ability of the Company to attract and retain quality employees and management over time;

 

· The current global economic climate; and

 

· Other risks which may be described in future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

 

No assurances can be given that the results contemplated in any forward-looking statements will be achieved or will be achieved in any particular timetable. We assume no obligation to publicly correct or update any forward-looking statements as a result of events or developments subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report. The reader is advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our filings with the SEC.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

March 31, 2017

 

1. Nature of Operations

 

 

 

Markham Woods Press Publishing Co., Inc. (the Company), incorporated and headquartered in the State of Florida as of December 6, 2006, operates as an internet based business publication under the magazine name "The Opportunist". The Company formerly published its magazine in hard copy earning revenues from advertising and distributing the magazine at no charge from inception through the year 2011. The Company reorganized during the years 2012 and 2013 to form its current presence as an internet based publication once again attempting to enter into revenue contracts and distribute the magazine at no charge under the name "The Opportunist".

 

2. Going Concern

 

 

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has a working capital deficit and has experienced negative cash flows from operations, has a history of net losses from continuing operations, and has an accumulated deficit of $895,888 at March 31, 2017. The Company has not generated any revenues for the fiscal periods ended March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to operate in the normal course of business. The Company has funded activities to date almost exclusively from debt financings. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management’s plans in order to meet its operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of its common stock, issuances of debt and convertible debt instruments. While the Company believes that it will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, meet regulatory requirements and achieve commercial goals, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved and that it will succeed in its future operations. The March 31, 2017 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

a) Interim Financial Statements

 

 

 

 

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2017, with the SEC. 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 interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end December 31, 2016 have been omitted.

 

 

b) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

 

 

 

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

March 31, 2017

 

4. Convertible notes Payable – Related parties

 

 

 

On December 31, 2013, the Company entered into a three demand convertible promissory notes with related parties for an aggregate principal balance of $405,727, which each bear interest at 12% per annum and are due on demand. The notes may be converted into common stock at the lesser of (i) $.003 per share, or (ii) at a 75% discount to the previous day’s closing bid price immediately prior to the delivery of the conversion notice (the conversion price). On January 1, 2014, one of the promissory notes was amended to include accrued interest in the principal balance of the note. Pursuant to the amendment to this promissory note, the Company will reclassify all accrued interest into principal at the end of each period. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company received additional loans under the promissory notes of $10,000 (2016 - $15,000), accrued $23,126 (2016 - $19,943) of interest and reclassified $23,126 (2016 - $19,943) of interest into principal. As at March 31, 2017, the Company owes $810,704 (December 31, 2016 - $777,578) in principal.

 

The Company has evaluated whether separate financial instruments with the same terms as the conversion features above would meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25. The terms of the contracts do not permit net settlement, as the shares delivered upon conversion are not readily convertible to cash. The Company is not currently trading and there is no market for the stock upon conversion. As the conversion features would not meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25, the conversion features are not required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for separately. As a result, at March 31, 2017 the conversion features would not meet derivative classification.

 

5. Stockholders’ Equity

 

 

 

Preferred stock includes 1,000,000 preferred shares authorized at a par value of $0.01, of which none are issued or outstanding.

 

Common stock includes 200,000,000 common shares authorized at a par value of $0.01, of which 30,000,100 are issued and outstanding.

 

There were no share transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

6. Subsequent Events

 

 

 

In April, 2017, under the terms of the above demand convertible promissory notes with related parties, the Company borrowed $25,000 in additional funds for working capital purposes.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and their related notes included elsewhere in this report.

 

Overview of the Markham Woods Press Publishing Company, Inc.

 

The Company exists solely to be the publisher of the online business magazine, “Opportunist Magazine”, http://opportunistmagazine.com, published in the United States for an intended global audience.

 

The magazine was originally founded by us over ten years ago as a hardcopy, print edition distributed nationally through the mail to a broad range of investor-subscribers. Over the years, we have finetuned our editorial policy and evolved our publication into an electronic edition which is published every day. Periodically we publish special print editions that are available on a limited basis to our subscribers or the general public through magazine distribution organizations in major U.S. markets.

 

For the period December 31, 2016, our auditors had issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months.

 

We do not anticipate that we will generate revenues at least until we have completed and launched our online magazine website.

 

Plan of Operations

 

We believe that revenue growth and profitability can be achieved in 2017 and maintained long term since the technical characteristics of our online delivery of the magazine should be, and remain, highly cost effective, and the incremental year-over-year growth in readership, as we expand our audience base, will present the opportunity for increases in advertising revenues which outpace incremental, associated increases in expenses.

 

If we are not able to sell all of the shares of our common stock pursuant to our offering made under the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, (the “Offering”), we will not implement our business plan at all, except maintaining our reporting with the SEC and remain in good standing with the state of Florida. We will also need more funds if the costs of developing our online magazine website are greater than we have budgeted. We will also require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues. These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in the dilution in the equity ownership of our shares We currently do not have any arrangements regarding the Offering or following the Offering for further financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain further financing, the successful development of our online magazine website, a successful marketing and promotion program, attracting and, further in the future, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. As widely reported, the global and domestic financial markets have been extremely volatile in recent months. If such conditions and constraints continue, we may not be able to acquire additional funds either through credit markets or through equity markets. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms we find favorable. At this time, there are no anticipated sources of additional funds in place. Failure to secure the needed additional financing will have an adverse effect on our ability to remain in business.

Table of Contents

 

If we are successful in selling 1,500,000 shares of common stock under the Offering we plan to execute our business plan and pursue our business objectives and goals. We will spend $10,000 on marketing and advertising during the 12 months preceding the completion of the Offering and will have minimal working capital available.

 

Our management does not anticipate the need to hire employees currently. However, it requires retaining the services of outside consultants to complete the development of our online magazine website.

 

The realization of sales revenues by the end of 2017 is important in the execution of our plan of operations. However, we cannot guarantee that we will generate such revenue. If we do not produce sufficient cash flow by the end of 2017, we may need to raise additional capital by issuing additional shares of common stock in exchange for cash in order to continue as a going concern. There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. We cannot assure any investor that, if needed, sufficient financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for operations to continue.”

 

Results of Operations

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 we incurred a net loss of $35,204 compared to a net loss of $27,128 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

Operating Expenses:

 

Our operating expenses for three months ended March 31, 2017 were $12,078 compared to $7,185 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

We expect that our expenses will increase in the coming months as a result of an increase in operations as well as legal and accounting expenses associated with becoming a reporting company. We have budgeted that these expenses will be approximately $_35,000_ for fiscal 2017. We will need to raise additional funds to be able to meet these expected capital requirements, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure the required financing. If we are not able to raise the required financing, we will not be able to develop our business plan.

 

Purchase or Sale of Equipment

 

We have not purchased or sold, and we do not expect over the next twelve months to purchase or sell, any plants or significant equipment.

 

Revenues

 

We had no revenues for the 3 months ended March 31, 2017, nor for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. We believe that we will be able to commence the marketing of our online magazine website immediately following the public launch of our completed online magazine website, which we anticipate will be ready for public launch within 6 months following the successful completion of our Offering made under the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, filed January 6, 2017, and declared effective on January 19, 2017, provided that we have correctly estimated the funds required to execute our business plan. We expect to begin generating revenues within the six months following the public launch of our online magazine website.

Interest Income:

 

The company had no interest income to report.

 

Net Loss:

 

Net Loss was $35,204 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and we had to a net loss of $27,128 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At March 31, 2017, we had total current assets of $7,342 consisting of cash, and total current liabilities of $813,130. This compares to December 31, 2016 when our total current assets were $10,022 consisting of cash, and total current liabilities were $780,606. In the opinion of our management, additional funding is required to meet our development goals for the year ended December 31, 2017. The estimated funding we require during the next twelve months period (beginning following the successful completion of our offering per the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, the “Offering”) is between $27,500 and $47,500, which we expect to raise from the sale of our shares in our Offering. These estimated expenditures are described in detail in the Offering under the heading “Expenditures.” The length of time during which we will be able to satisfy our cash requirements depends on how quickly our company can generate revenue and how much revenue can be generated. Our current cash balances were extinguished in April and we have borrowed $25,000 to cover working capital needs until the end of 2017 provided we do not have any unanticipated expenses. Our estimate of needed capital is computed without taking into account any revenues from future operations, which are not assured.

 

Although there can be no assurance at present, we anticipate to be in a position to generate revenues beginning approximately 4 to 6 months following the launch of our online magazine website or approximately within 10 to 12 months from the successful completion of our Offering.

 

We have not yet generated any revenue from our operations. We will require additional funds to implement our plans. These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in the dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. We will also need more funds if the costs of the development of our online magazine website costs greater than we have budgeted. We will also require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues. We currently do not have any such arrangements following the Offering for further financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain further financing, the successful development of our online magazine website, a successful marketing and promotion program, attracting and, further in the future, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. If we are not able to raise any funds in the Offering, we will not have sufficient capital to carry out our business plan as planned and will likely lack the funds to operate our business at all. We will require additional funds to maintain our reporting status with the SEC and remain in good standing with the state of Florida.

 

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. As widely reported, the global and domestic financial markets have been extremely volatile in recent months. If such conditions and constraints continue, we may not be able to acquire additional funds either through credit markets or through equity markets. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms we find favorable. At this time, there are no anticipated sources of additional funds in place. Failure to secure the needed additional financing will have an adverse effect on our ability to remain in business.

Operational cash flow

 

We had operating cash outflows in the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $12,680, and $7,409 for the three months March 31, 2016. Our primary uses of cash have been for general working capital purposes. All cash we received over the reported periods has been expended in the furtherance of growing assets.

 

Financing cash flows

 

During the 3 months ended March 31, 2017, we borrowed $10,000 from a private investor to finance operating expenses, and had borrowed $15,000 during the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 from a private investor for the same purpose. To date, we have been dependent upon such borrowings to pay ongoing expenses.

 

Going forward, we may not have sufficient resources to continue our business unless we are able to raise additional financing. We can make no assurances these required funds will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities would result in dilution to our existing stockholders. Additionally, these conditions may increase costs to raise capital and/or result in further dilution. Our failure to raise capital when needed would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and could force us to reduce or cease our operations.

 

We believe that we will be able to meet the costs of growth and public reporting with funds generated from operations and additional amounts generated through debt and equity financing, Although management believes that the required financing to fund product development and increasing inventory levels can be secured at terms satisfactory to the Company, there is no guarantee these funds will be made available, and if funds are available, that the terms will be satisfactory to the Company.

 

Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition. Some of the critical accounting estimates are detailed below.

 

Going Concern

 

We have an accumulated deficit of $895,888 as of March 31, 2017 and have completed only the preliminary stages of our business plan. We anticipate incurring additional losses before realizing any revenues and will depend on additional financing in order to meet our continuing obligations and ultimately, to attain profitability. Our ability to obtain additional financing, whether through the issuance of additional equity or through the assumption of debt, is uncertain. Accordingly, our financial statements for the 3 months ended March 31, 2017, the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 include an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern, including additional information contained in the notes to our financial statements describing the circumstances leading to this disclosure. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue our business

 

Critical Accounting Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements

 

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2017, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements with third parties that include indemnification provisions which, in our judgment, are normal and customary for companies in our industry sector. These agreements are typically with business partners, and suppliers. Pursuant to these agreements, we generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties with respect to our product candidates, use of such product candidates, or other actions taken or omitted by us. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. We have not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. As a result, the estimated fair value of liabilities relating to these provisions is minimal. Accordingly, we have no liabilities recorded for these provisions as of March 31, 2017.

 

In the normal course of business, we may be confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims, environmental actions or the actions of various regulatory agencies. We consult with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess the claim. If, in our opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in our financial statements.

 

Impact of Inflation

 

The business will have to absorb any inflationary increases on development costs in the short-term, with the expectation that it will be able to pass inflationary increases on costs on to our customers through price increases on the release of these new/enhanced products into the market and hence the management do not expect inflation to be a significant factor in our business.

 

Recent Events

 

The acceptance of the filing on January 6, 2017 of the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its being declared “effective” on January 19, 2017, containing our “Preliminary Prospectus” or “Offering”.

 

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2016. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Donna Rayburn. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2016.

Table of Contents

 

Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

Lack of proper segregation of duties over financial transactions and processes.

 

Overreliance on consultants involved in the accounting and financial reporting process.

 

Inadequate design of controls over the general ledger and financial reporting.

 

The Company does not currently have an active Chief Financial Officer to oversee the day to day transactions and operations, which ensures the timely and accurate identification and reporting of all necessary transactions.

 

The Company does not have an independent audit committee that can review and approve significant transactions and the reporting process and provide independent oversight of the Company.

 

Lack of audit committee having appropriate accounting knowledge to adequately provide oversight of the Company’s accounting and reporting functions.

 

The Company is dependent on related parties for funding and decision making, which is provided on a very limited basis, therefore accurate accounting, record retention and financial disclosures are not performed in a timely and efficient manner.

 

Disclosure Controls

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

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 will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. 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. Because of 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 the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon 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. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

There are no pending legal or governmental proceedings relating to our Company to which we are a party, and to our knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, executive officers or affiliates are a party adverse to us or which have a material interest adverse to us.

 

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

 

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated herein that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Relating to Our Business

 

There is uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern, indicating the possibility that we may be required to curtail or discontinue our operations in the future. If we discontinue our operations, you may lose all of your investment.

 

We have incurred an accumulated deficit of $895,888 as of March 31, 2017 and have completed only the preliminary stages of our business plan. We anticipate incurring additional losses before realizing any revenues and will depend on additional financing in order to meet our continuing obligations and ultimately, to attain profitability. Our current cash assets were extinguished by early April 2017, and we have borrowed an additional $25,000 to cover expenses until the end of the year.. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue our business. If we are unable to obtain additional financing from outside sources and eventually produce enough revenues, we may be forced to sell our assets, or curtail or discontinue our operations. If this happens, you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

We are in an early stage of development. If we are not able to develop out business as anticipated, we may not be able to generate revenues or achieve profitability and you may lose your investment.

 

We were incorporated on December 15, 2006. Our online magazine website, which we intend to be our sole vehicle for generating revenues, is incomplete. We have no customers, and we have not earned any revenues to date. Our business prospects are difficult to predict because of our limited operating history, early stage of development, and unproven business strategy. Our primary business activities will be focused on the development of our online magazine website. Although we believe that our business plan has significant profit potential, we may not attain profitable operations and our management may not succeed in realizing our business objectives. If we are not able to develop out business as anticipated, we may not be able to generate revenues or achieve profitability and you may lose your investment.

Table of Contents

 

We expect to suffer losses in the immediate future that may cause us to curtail or discontinue our operations.

 

We expect to incur operating losses in future periods. These losses will occur because we do not yet have any revenues to offset the expenses associated with the development of our online magazine website and our business operations, generally. We cannot guarantee that we will ever be successful in generating revenues in the future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate revenues, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we can provide investors with no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will almost certainly fail.

 

We have limited sales and marketing experience, which increases the risk that our business will fail.

 

Our officers, who will be responsible for marketing our online magazine website to potential users, have no experience in the social media or internet industries, and have only nominal sales and marketing experience. Further, we have budgeted only $10,000 toward sales and marketing efforts for 2017, which by industry standards is a very limited amount of capital with which to launch our effort. Given the relatively small marketing budget and limited experience of our officers, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful. Further, if our initial efforts to create a market for our online magazine website are not successful, there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain qualified individuals with marketing and sales expertise to attract subscribers to our online magazine website. Our future success will depend, among other factors, upon whether our services can be sold at a profitable price and the extent to which consumers acquire, adopt, and continue to use them. There can be no assurance that our online magazine website will gain wide acceptance in its targeted markets or that we will be able to effectively market our services.

 

We may not be able to execute our business plan or stay in business without additional funding.

 

Our ability to generate future operating revenues depends in part on whether we can obtain the financing necessary to implement our business plan. We will likely require additional financing through the issuance of debt and/or equity in order to establish profitable operations, and such financing may not be forthcoming. As widely reported, the global and domestic financial markets have been extremely volatile in recent months. If such conditions and constraints continue or if there is no investor appetite to finance our specific business, we may not be able to acquire additional financing through credit markets or equity markets. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms favorable to us. At this time, we have not identified or secured sources of additional financing. Our failure to secure additional financing when it becomes required will have an adverse effect on our ability to remain in business.

If our estimates related to future expenditures are erroneous or inaccurate, our business will fail and you could lose your entire investment.

 

Our success is dependent in part upon the accuracy of our management’s estimates of our future cost expenditures for legal and accounting services (including those we expect to incur as a publicly reporting company), for online magazine website marketing and development expenses, and for administrative expenses, which management estimates to be approximately between $25,000 and $45,000 during fiscal 2017. If such estimates are erroneous or inaccurate, or if we encounter unforeseen costs, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, which could result in the failure of our business and the loss of your entire investment.

 

Our auditor has raised substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern and if we are unable to continue our business, our shares may have little or no value.

 

The company’s ability to become a profitable operating company is dependent upon its ability to generate revenues and/or obtain financing adequate to fulfill its research and market introduction activities, and achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our cost structure has raised substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern. We plan to attempt to raise additional equity capital by selling shares in this offering and, if necessary, through one or more private placement or public offerings. However, the doubts raised, relating to our ability to continue as a going concern, may make our shares an unattractive investment for potential investors. These factors, among others, may make it difficult to raise any additional capital.

 

We will need to achieve commercial acceptance of our applications to generate revenues and achieve profitability.

 

Even if our development yields technologically superior sites, we may not successfully develop commercial sites, and even if we do, we may not do so on a timely basis. We cannot predict when significant commercial market acceptance for our sites and the affiliated products sold thereon will develop, if at all, and we cannot reliably estimate the projected size of any such potential market. If markets fail to accept our magazine, we may not be able to generate revenues from the commercial application of our technologies. Our revenue growth and achievement of profitability will depend substantially on our ability to introduce new products that are accepted by customers. If we are unable to cost effectively achieve acceptance of our sites by customers, or if the associated products do not achieve wide market acceptance, our business will be materially and adversely affected.

 

We will need to establish additional relationships with collaborative and development partners to fully develop and market our sites.

 

We do not possess all of the resources necessary to develop and commercialize sites and related products on a mass scale. Unless we expand our development capacity and enhance our internal marketing, we will need to make appropriate arrangements with collaborative affiliates to develop and commercialize our site.

 

Collaborations may allow us to:

 

 

· generate cash flow and revenue;

 

· offset some of the costs associated with our internal development; and

 

· successfully commercialize our site.

 

 
13
 
Table of Contents

 

If we need, but do not find appropriate affiliate arrangements, our ability to develop and commercialize our site could be adversely affected. Even if we are able to find collaborative partners, the overall success of the development and commercialization of our site will depend largely on the efforts of other parties and is beyond our control. In addition, in the event we pursue our commercialization strategy through collaboration, there are a variety of attendant technical, business and legal risks, including:

 

 

· a development partner would likely gain access to our proprietary information, potentially enabling the partner to develop sites and affiliate products without us or design around our intellectual property;

 

· we may not be able to control the amount and timing of resources that our collaborators may be willing or able to devote to the development or commercialization of our sites and affiliate products, or to their marketing and distribution; and

 

· disputes may arise between us and our collaborators that result in the delay or termination of the development or commercialization of our sites or marketing or that result in costly litigation or arbitration that diverts our management’s resources.

 

The occurrence of any of the above risks could impair our ability to generate revenues and harm our business and financial condition.

 

Any significant disruption in our online magazine website presence could result in a loss of customers.

 

Our plans call for our customers to access our service through our online magazine website. Our reputation and ability to attract, retain and serve our customers will be dependent upon the reliable performance of our online magazine website, network infrastructure and fulfillment processes (how we deliver services purchased by our customers). Prolonged or frequent interruptions in any of these systems could make our online magazine website unavailable or unusable, which could diminish the overall attractiveness of our subscription service to existing and potential customers.

 

Our servers will likely be vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions and delays in our service and operations and loss, misuse or theft of data. It is likely that our online magazine website will periodically experience directed attacks intended to cause a disruption in service, which is not uncommon for web-based businesses. Any attempts by hackers to disrupt our online magazine website service or our internal systems, if successful, could harm our business, be expensive to remedy and damage our reputation. Efforts to prevent hackers from entering our computer systems are expensive to implement and may limit the functionality of our services. Any significant disruption to our online magazine website or internal computer systems could result in a loss of subscribers and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

 

Our site may be displaced by newer technology.

 

The Internet and job seeking industries are undergoing rapid and significant technological change. Third parties may succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that are more effective than those developed or marketed by us, or that would make our technology and sites obsolete or noncompetitive. Accordingly, our success will depend, in part, on our ability to respond quickly to technological changes through the development and introduction of new sites and products. We may not have the resources to do this. If our sites or product candidates become obsolete and our efforts to secure and develop new products and sites do not result in any commercially successful sites or products, our sales and revenues will decline.

We are in a competitive market which could impact our ability to gain market share which could harm our financial performance.

 

The business of being a platform for small cap companies to tell their story to potential investors is very competitive. Barriers to entry on the Internet are relatively low, and we face competitive pressures from companies anxious to join this niche. There are a number of successful online magazine websites operated by proven companies that offer similar niche platforms, which may prevent us from gaining enough market share to become successful. These competitors have existing customers that may form a large part of our targeted client base, and such clients may be hesitant to switch over from already established competitors to our service. If we cannot gain enough market share, our business and our financial performance will be adversely affected.

 

We are a small company with limited resources relative to our competitors and we may not be able to compete effectively.

 

The niche job search service online magazine websites of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater resources and name recognition, and a larger base of customers than we have. As a result, these competitors will have greater credibility with our potential customers. They also may be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to the development, promotion, and sale of their services than we may be able to devote to our services. Therefore, we may not be able to compete effectively and our business may fail.

 

The loss of the services of either of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent personnel could negatively impact our ability to develop our online magazine website and sell our services.

 

The development of our online magazine website and the marketing of our services will continue to place a significant strain on our limited personnel, management, and other resources. Our future success depends upon the continued services of our executive officer, Donna Rayburn who is developing our business, and on our ability to identify and retain competent consultants and employees with the skills required to execute our business objectives. The loss of the services of either of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent personnel could negatively impact our ability to develop our online magazine website and sell our services, which could adversely affect our financial results and impair our growth.

 

Our officer and director has conflicts of interest in that she has other time commitments that will prevent her from devoting fulltime to our operations, which may affect our operations.

 

Because our officer and director, who are responsible for all our business activities, does not devote her full working time to operation and management of us, the implementation of our business plans may be impeded. Our officer and director has other obligations and time commitments, which will slow our operations and may reduce our financial results and as a result, we may not be able to continue with our operations. Additionally, when she becomes unable to handle the daily operations on her own, we may not be able to hire additional qualified personnel to replace her in a timely manner. If this event should occur, we may not be able to reach profitability, which might result in the loss of some or all of your investment in our common stock.

 

Our financial results may vary significantly from period-to-period which may lead to volatility in our stock price.

 

The size and timing of our potential revenue from sales to our customers is difficult to predict. Our revenues in each period may also vary significantly. If our revenue falls below our expectations or is delayed in any period, we may not be able to proportionately reduce our operating expenses for that period, which could have long-term implications on our ability to operate profitably.

 

 
15
 
Table of Contents

 

Our profitability from period-to-period may also vary significantly. Therefore, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results cannot necessarily be relied upon to be meaningful and that these comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

 

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our operations and our stock price.

 

We are subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires an annual management assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports, and failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could cause investors to lose confidence in our operating results, and could have a material adverse effect on our business and on the price of our common stock. Because of our status as a smaller reporting company registrant as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing our financial statements has not been required to attest to, and report on, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

 

If we fail to attract and retain key personnel, or to retain our executive management team, we may be unable to successfully develop or commercialize our services.

 

Our success depends in part on our continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified managerial personnel. We are highly dependent upon our executive management team. The loss of the services of any one or more of the members of our executive management team could delay or prevent the successful completion of some of our development and commercialization objectives.

 

Recruiting and retaining qualified sales and marketing personnel is critical to our success. We may not be able to attract and retain these personnel on terms acceptable to us. In addition, we rely on consultants and advisors to assist us in formulating our development and commercialization strategy. Our consultants and advisors may also be employed by companies and may have commitments under consulting or advisory contracts with other entities that may limit their availability to us.

 

If the estimates that we make, or the assumptions upon which we rely, in preparing our financial statements prove inaccurate, our future financial results may vary from expectations.

 

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, stockholders’ equity, revenues and expenses, the amounts of charges accrued by us and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We cannot assure you, therefore, that there may not be material fluctuations between our estimates and the actual results.

 

A global economic downturn or recession may negatively affect our business.

 

A global economic downturn or recession could negatively affect our results. We cannot predict the timing or duration of the economic slowdown or recession or the timing or strength of a subsequent recovery, worldwide, or in the specific end market we serve. If the market for our services significantly deteriorates due to the economic situation, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Related To Our Common Stock

 

There is no active trading market for our common stock and if a market for our common stock does not develop, our investors will be unable to sell their shares.

 

There has been no public market for our securities and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the securities offered herein will develop or be sustained after this Offering. After the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we intend to identify a market maker to file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to have our common stock quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. We must satisfy certain criteria in order for our application to be accepted. We may never be approved for trading on any exchange. We do not currently have a market maker willing to participate in this application process, and even if we identify a market maker, there can be no assurance as to whether we will meet the requisite criteria or that our application will be accepted. Our common stock may never be quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or a public market for our common stock may not materialize if it becomes quoted. If our securities are not eligible for initial or continued quotation on the Ove-The-Counter Bulletin Board or if a public trading market does not develop, purchasers of the common stock in this Offering may have difficulty selling or be unable to sell their securities should they desire to do so, rendering their shares effectively worthless and resulting in a complete loss of their investment.

 

If we do not file a Registration Statement on Form 8A to become a mandatory reporting company under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we will continue as a reporting company and will not be subject to the proxy statement requirements, and our officers, directors and 10% stockholders will not be required to submit reports to the SEC on their stock ownership and stock trading activity, all of which could reduce the value of your investment and the amount of publicly available information about us.

 

As a result of the declared effectiveness on January 17, 2017 of our Amended Registration Statement filed January 6, 2017 on form S-1/A, as required under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we will file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission through December 31, 2017, At or prior to December 31, 2017, we intend voluntarily to file a registration statement on Form 8A which will subject us to all of the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act. This will require us to file quarterly and annual reports with the SEC and will also subject us to the proxy rules of the SEC. In addition, our officers, directors and 10% stockholders will be required to submit reports to the SEC on their stock ownership and stock trading activity. We are not required under Section 12(g) or otherwise to become a mandatory 1934 Act filer unless we have more than 500 shareholders and total assets of more than $10 million on December 31, 2017. If we do not file a registration statement on Form 8A at or prior to December 31, 2017, we will continue as a reporting company and will not be subject to the proxy statement requirements of the 1934 Act, and our officers, directors and 10% stockholders will not be required to submit reports to the SEC on their stock ownership and stock trading activity.

Because we will be subject to “penny stock” rules once our shares are quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.

 

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer to deliver to its customers a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market prior to carrying out a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules. If a trading market does develop for our common stock, these regulations will likely be applicable, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

 

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) sales practice requirements may also limit your ability to buy and sell our stock, which could depress our share price.

 

FINRA rules require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares, depressing our share price.

 

State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which you can sell the shares purchased under our Offering.

 

If you purchased shares of our common stock sold pursuant to our “Offering” made under our Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, you may not be able to resell the shares in a certain state unless and until the shares of our common stock are qualified for secondary trading under the applicable securities laws of such state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in such state. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in registering or qualifying our common stock for secondary trading, or identifying an available exemption for secondary trading in our common stock in every state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, our common stock in any particular state, the shares of common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the market for the common stock will be limited which could drive down the market price of our common stock and reduce the liquidity of the shares of our common stock and a stockholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock at all or at current market prices, which could increase a stockholder’s risk of losing some or all of his investment.

If quoted, the price of our common stock may be volatile, which may substantially increase the risk that you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the price that you may pay for the shares.

 

Even if our shares are quoted for trading on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board following the successful completion of the offering per the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, and a public market develops for our common stock, the market price of our common stock may be volatile. It may fluctuate significantly in response to the following factors:

 

 

· variations in quarterly operating results;

 

· our announcements of significant contracts and achievement of milestones;

 

· our relationships with other companies or capital commitments;

 

· additions or departures of key personnel;

 

· sales of common stock or termination of stock transfer restrictions;

 

· changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, if any; and

 

· fluctuations in stock market price and volume.

 

Your inability to sell your shares during a decline in the price of our stock may increase losses that you may suffer as a result of your investment.

 

Our insiders beneficially own 100% of our issued and outstanding stock, and accordingly, have control over stockholder matters, the Company’s business and management. Because of the significant ownership position held by our executive officer and director, new investors will not be able to effect a change in our business or management.

 

As of March 31, 2017, our executive officer and director beneficially owns 30,000,100 shares of our common stock in the aggregate, or 100% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Ms. Donna Rayburn, our President and director, owns 100% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Following the successful completion of the “Offering” per the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017 which was declared “Effective” on January 17, 2017, if:

 

 

· the Maximum Offering offered pursuant to this prospectus is sold, Donna Rayburn will own approximately 95% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

 

As a result, our executive officer and director will have significant influence to:

 

 

· control the election and composition of our board of directors;

 

· amend or prevent any amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;

 

· effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and

 

· affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote.

Moreover, because of the significant ownership position held by our executive officer and director, new investors will not be able to effect a change in our business or management, and therefore, shareholders would be subject to decisions made by our officer and director in their capacity as managers or as majority shareholders.

 

In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors and executive officers, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

 

We arbitrarily determined the price of the shares of our common stock to be sold pursuant to this prospectus, and such price does not reflect the actual market price for the securities. Consequently, there is an increased risk that you may not be able to resell our common stock at the price you bought it for.

 

The initial offering price of $0.04 per share of the common stock offered pursuant to the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, and declared “Effective” on January 17, 2017 (the “Offering”), was determined by us arbitrarily. The price is not based on our financial condition or prospects, on the market prices of securities of comparable publicly traded companies, on financial and operating information of companies engaged in similar activities to ours, or on general conditions of the securities market. The price may not be indicative of the future market price, if any, for our common stock in the trading market. If the market price for our stock drops below the price which you paid in the Offering, you may not be able to resell out common stock at the price for which you bought it.

 

The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations and if we face a class action suit due to the volatility of the price of our common stock, regardless of the outcome, such litigation may have an adverse impact on our financial condition and business operations.

 

The market price of the securities offered herein, if any, may decline below the initial public offering price. The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against various companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If instituted against us, regardless of the outcome, such litigation would result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which would increase our operating expenses and affect our financial condition and business operations.

 

Because we do not intend to pay any dividends on our common stock; holders of our common stock must rely on stock appreciation for any return on their investment.

 

We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock since our inception, and we do not anticipate paying any such dividends for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, holders of our common stock will have to rely on capital appreciation, if any, to earn a return on their investment in our common stock.

 

The sale of our common stock pursuant to our Offering or any future additional issuances of our common stock may dilute existing shareholders.

 

We are authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 30,000,100 shares are issued and outstanding as of the date of this filing. We will issue up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the successful completion of our “Offering” per the Amended Registration Statement filed on form S-1/A, January 6, 2017, and declared “Effective” on January 17, 2017. Our Board of Directors has the authority, without the consent of any of our stockholders, to cause us to issue additional shares of common stock, and to determine the rights, preferences and privileges attached to such shares. The sale of our common stock pursuant to this Offering, and any future additional issuances of our common stock will result in immediate dilution to our existing shareholders’ interests, which may have a dilutive impact on our existing shareholders, and could negatively affect the value of your shares.

We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which, shareholders may have more limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.

 

Recent federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements; others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or the NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges and NASDAQ, are those that address the board of Directors independence, audit committee oversight, and the adoption of a code of ethics. While our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, we have not yet adopted any of these corporate governance measures, and since our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, we are not required to do so. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, shareholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees, may be made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

 

If we fail to comply with the rules under the Sarbanes-Oxley act related to accounting controls and procedures or if material weaknesses or other deficiencies are discovered in our internal accounting procedures, our stock price could decline significantly.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report by our independent auditors addressing these assessments. We are in the process of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, and we may identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and other deficiencies. If material weaknesses and deficiencies are detected, it could cause investors to lose confidence in our Company and result in a decline in our stock price and consequently affect our financial condition. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to helping prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock could drop significantly. In addition, we cannot be certain that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls will not be discovered in the future.

 

Our common stock may be thinly traded, liquidity limited, and we may be unable to obtain listing of our common stock on a more liquid market.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC which provides significantly less liquidity than a securities exchange (such as the American or New York Stock Exchange) or an automated quotation system (such as the Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap Market). There is uncertainty that we will ever be accepted for a listing on an automated quotation system or a securities exchange.

Often there is currently a limited volume of trading in our common stock, and on many days there has been no trading activity at all. The purchasers of shares of our common stock may find it difficult to resell their shares at prices quoted in the market or at all.

 

Future sales of shares of our common stock may decrease the price for such shares.

 

Actual sales, or the prospect of sales by our shareholders, may have a negative effect on the market price of the shares of our common stock. We may also register certain shares of our common stock that are subject to outstanding convertible securities, if any, or reserved for issuance under our stock option plans, if any. Once such shares are registered, they can be freely sold in the public market upon exercise of the options. If any of our shareholders either individually or in the aggregate causes a large number of securities to be sold in the public market, or if the market perceives that these holders intend to sell a large number of securities, such sales or anticipated sales could result in a substantial reduction in the trading price of shares of our common stock and could also impede our ability to raise future capital.

 

Current shareholders will be immediately and substantially diluted upon a merger or business combination.

 

To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued in connection with a merger or business combination, our shareholders could experience significant dilution of their respective ownership interests. Furthermore, the issuance of a substantial number of shares of common stock may adversely affect prevailing market prices, if any, for the common stock and could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities.

 

The company has not paid dividends, nor does it intend to pay dividends in the future.

 

The Company has paid no dividends on its Common Stock to date, and there are no plans to pay any in the foreseeable future. Initial earnings which the Company may realize, if any, will be retained to finance growth of the Company. Any future dividends, of which there can be no assurance, will be directly dependent upon the earnings of the Company, its financial requirements and other factors.

 

Our common stock may be subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.

 

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

 

Securities analysts may not provide coverage of our common stock or may issue negative reports, which may have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

 

Securities analysts have not historically provided research coverage of our common stock and may elect not to do so in the future. If securities analysts do not cover our common stock, the lack of research coverage may cause the market price of our common stock to decline. The trading market for our common stock may be affected in part by the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about our business. If one or more of the analysts who elects to cover us downgrades our stock, our stock price would likely decline substantially. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us, we could lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline. In addition, rules mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and a global settlement reached in 2003 between the SEC, other regulatory agencies and a number of investment banks have led to a number of fundamental changes in how analysts are reviewed and compensated. In particular, many investment banking firms are required to contract with independent financial analysts for their stock research. It may be difficult for companies such as ours, with smaller market capitalizations, to attract independent financial analysts that will cover our common stock. This could have a negative effect on the market price of our stock.

Other Risks

 

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Florida law and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

 

Our Bylaws contain specific provisions that eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and shareholders, and we are prepared to give such indemnification to our directors and officers to the extent provided by Florida law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.

 

ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

On December 15, 2006, we issued 100 shares of the Company’s common stock to Donna Rayburn, our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director, for the funds advanced for the formation of the corporation.

 

On July 7, 2015, we issued 30,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Donna Rayburn, our sole officer and director for services rendered.

 

We believe that the issuances of the securities set forth above were exempt from registration as offerings completed under Regulation S of the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. We believed that this exemption from registration was available for each transaction because each purchaser represented to us, among other things, that he was a non U.S. person as defined in Regulation S, was not acquiring the shares for the account or benefit of, directly or indirectly, any U.S. person, he had the intention to acquire the securities for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for sales in connection with any distribution thereof, and that he was sophisticated and was able to bear the risk of loss of his entire investment. Further, appropriate legends were affixed to the certificates for the securities issued in such transactions and we did not otherwise engage in distribution of these shares in the U.S.

 

As of March 31, 2017, there has been no additional issuances of unregistered securities of the Company.
