In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance, anticipated expenses, or projected financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections.

 

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, or joint ventures we may make or collaborations or strategic partnerships we may enter into.

 

You should read this Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

MAX-1 ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED) 

 

Note 1 - Organization and Business

 

Max-1 Acquisition Corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 6, 2017 with the objective to acquire, or merge with, an operating business.

 

The Company was organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly traded corporation. The Company’s principal business objective over the next twelve months and beyond will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict its potential target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location. The analysis of business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, the officer and directors of the Company.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Registration Statement on Form 10-12G filed with the SEC on March 21, 2017. The balance sheet as of February 28, 2017 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments for a fair statement of the results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents as of the condensed balance sheet date.

 

Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments for the periods presented.

 

4

 

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recognized, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.

 

The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of an uncertain tax position only after considering the probability that a tax authority would sustain the position in an examination. For tax positions meeting a “more-likely than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the benefit expected to be realized upon settlement with the tax authority. For tax positions not meeting the threshold, no financial statement benefit is recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of May 31, 2017 and February 28, 2017, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company” and has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

 

Note 3 - Income Taxes

 

As of May 31, 2017, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $45,000, to reduce future federal and state taxable income through 2037.

 

The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations in progress nor has it had any federal or state examinations since its inception. All of the Company’s tax years are subject to federal and state tax examination.

 

The benefit from income taxes consists of the following:

 

   Three Months Ended 
   May 31,
2017
 
Current Expense:    
Federal  $- 
Deferred tax benefit     
Federal   6,000 
Valuation allowance   (6,000)
Total  $- 

 

5

 

 

The income tax benefit differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate to the loss before income taxes due to the following: 

 

   Three Months Ended 
   May 31,
2017
 
Statutory federal income tax rate   34%
Valuation allowance   -34%
Effective income tax rate   0%

 

Note 4 - Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue fifty million (50,000,000) shares of $.0001 par value common stock, of which one million (1,000,000) shares have been issued.

 

On February 6, 2017, the Company issued 1,000,000 of its $0.0001 par value common stock for $25,000 to the founders of the Company.

 

Note 5 - Preferred Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue five million (5,000,000) shares of $.0001 par value preferred stock with designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company, of which none are issued.

 

Note 6 - Commitments and Related Party Transactions

 

Office Space

 

As of May 31, 2017, the Company’s office facilities are located in Boca Raton, Florida. Such facilities are leased by the sole officer and a shareholder of the Company and used by the Company at no charge.

Due to Related Parties

 

As of May 31, 2017, one of the stockholders advanced the Company $100 to open the Company’s bank account. This advance has no set repayment terms.

 

On March 10, 2017, the Company issued a promissory note to a stockholder of the Company pursuant to which the Company agreed to repay the sum of any and all amounts advanced to the Company, including the advance above, on or before the date that the Company consummates a business combination with a private company or reverse takeover transaction or other transaction after which the Company would cease to be a shell company. Although there is no obligation to advance funds to the Company under the terms of the note, it is anticipated that the stockholder may advance funds to the Company as fees and expenses are incurred in the future. As a result, the Company issued the note in anticipation of such advances. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the note on the basis of a 360-day year from the date of borrowing until paid in full at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum. During the three months ended May 31, 2017, the Company received advances of $12,500 under this promissory note.

 

As of May 31, 2017, the amount due was $24,716 including accrued interest of $216, which is reported as accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Note 7 - Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has incurred losses from inception of approximately $45,000 and has negative working capital of approximately $20,000 as of May 31, 2017, which, among other factors, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s plan to find a suitable acquisition or merger candidate, raise additional capital from the sales of stock and receive loans from related parties. The accompanying condensed interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 8 – Subsequent Events

 

On June 16, 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to four accredited investors, including Mark Tompkins, a majority stockholder and director of the Company, Montrose Capital Partners Limited, an affiliate of Mr. Tompkins, and two other accredited investors at a per share purchase price of $0.025 for aggregate gross proceeds of $6,250 in accordance with the terms and conditions of common stock purchase agreements, dated June 15, 2017, by and between the Company and each purchaser.

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

  

Overview of our Business

 

Max-1 Acquisition Corporation was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 6, 2017. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in organizational efforts and obtaining initial financing.  The Company was formed as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business. The Company filed a registration statement on Form 10 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 21, 2017, and since its effectiveness, the Company has focused its efforts to identify a possible business combination.

 

The Company is currently considered to be a “blank check” company. The SEC defines those companies as “any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3(a)(51) of the Exchange Act, and that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies.” Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of “blank check” companies in their respective jurisdictions. The Company is also a “shell company,” defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act as a company with no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.

 

In addition, the Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and exemptions from the requirements of Sections 14A(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to hold a nonbinding advisory vote of shareholders on executive compensation and any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

The Company has also elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (1) the last day of the fiscal year during which our revenues exceed $1 billion, (2) the date on which we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, (3) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act, or (4) when the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. To the extent that we continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company, certain of the exemptions available to us as an emerging growth company may continue to be available to us as a smaller reporting company, including: (1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act; (2) scaled executive compensation disclosures; and (3) the requirement to provide only two years of audited financial statements, instead of three years.

 

The Company was organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with an operating business. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

 

The Company currently does not engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. During the next twelve months we anticipate incurring costs related to:

 

(i) filing Exchange Act reports, and

 

(ii) investigating, analyzing and consummating an acquisition.

 

7

 

 

We believe we will be able to meet these costs through use of funds to be loaned by or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. As of May 31, 2017, the Company had $7,193 in cash. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding as needed. Currently, however, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependant on our ability to find a suitable target company and enter into a possible reverse merger with such company. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds by equity financing through a reverse merger transaction and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

 

The Company may consider acquiring a business which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering.

 

Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks. Our management anticipates that it will likely be able to effect only one business combination, due primarily to our limited financing and the dilution of interest for present and prospective stockholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management’s plan to offer a controlling interest to a target business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us, because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

 

The Company anticipates that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

 

As of the date of this Form 10-Q, our management has had discussions with a potential target regarding a business combination with us, however, at this time we are not a party to any binding agreements with respect to a business combination with this entity or any other entity and there are no assurances that we will be able to complete a business combination.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of May 31, 2017, the Company had total assets equal to $7,193 comprised exclusively of cash.  This compares with total assets of $10,025, comprised of cash and prepaid expenses, as of February 28, 2017.  The Company’s current liabilities as of May 31, 2017 totaled $27,325, comprised of accounts payable, accrued expenses and amounts due to related parties.  This compares to the Company’s total current liabilities of $12,110, comprised of accounts payable, accrued expenses and amounts due to related parties, as of February 28, 2017. The Company can provide no assurance that it can continue to satisfy its cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

The following is a summary of the Company’s cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the three months ended as of May 31, 2017:

 

  

Three Months

Ended

May 31,
2017

 
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities  $(11,332)
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities  $12,500 
Net Increase in Cash  $1,168 

 

The Company has only cash assets and has generated no revenues since inception. The Company is also dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan of seeking a combination with a private operating company. In addition, the Company is dependent upon certain related parties to provide continued funding and capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations.

 

Issuance of Promissory Note to a Shareholder and Director

 

On March 10, 2017, in connection with advances made in connection with costs incurred by the Company, the Company issued a promissory note to Mark Tompkins, a stockholder and director of the Company pursuant to which the Company agreed to repay Mr. Tompkins the sum of any and all amounts that Mr. Tompkins may advance to the Company on or before the date that the Company consummates a business combination with a private company or reverse takeover transaction or other transaction after which the Company would cease to be a shell company (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act). Although Mr. Tompkins has no obligation to advance funds to the Company under the terms of the note, it is anticipated that he may advance funds to the Company as fees and expenses are incurred in the future. As a result, the Company issued the note in anticipation of such advances. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the note on the basis of a 360-day year from the date of borrowing until paid in full at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum. In the event that an Event of Default (as defined in the note) has occurred, the entire note shall automatically become due and payable , and starting from five (5) days after the Default Date, the interest rate on the note shall accrue at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum. As of May 31, 2017, Mr. Tompkins advanced $24,500 to the Company to cover expenses incurred by the Company. The note is filed hereto as Exhibit 4.1.

 

Issuance of Common Stock to Accredited Investors

 

On June 16, 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share to four accredited investors, at a per share purchase price of $0.025 for aggregate gross proceeds of $6,250. The information set forth below in Item 5 of this Form 10-Q with respect to this issuance is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company has not conducted any active operations since inception, except for its efforts to locate suitable acquisition candidates. No revenue has been generated by the Company from February 6, 2017 (Inception), through May 31, 2017.  It is unlikely the Company will have any revenues unless it is able to effect an acquisition or merger with an operating company, of which there can be no assurance.  It is management’s assertion that these circumstances may hinder the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s plan of operation for the next twelve months shall be to continue its efforts to locate suitable acquisition candidates. 

 

For the three months ended May 31, 2017, the Company had a net loss of $18,047, comprised of legal, accounting, audit and other professional service fees incurred in relation to the preparation and filing of the Company’s periodic reports and general and administrative expenses.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.  

 

Contractual Obligations

As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported; and (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit the preparation of our condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP.

 

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q, management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended May 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Control

 

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.
