NOTE 6 - GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has incurred losses since its inception totaling $897,810 and has no on-going operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through loans, additional sales of its common stock, or through a possible business combination.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The COVID-19 pandemic could have an impact on our ability to obtain financing to fund the operations. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate impact at this time.

General

 

The Company is a shell company that conducts no active business operations and is seeking business opportunities for acquisition or participation by the Company.

 

The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the Company’s December 31, 2019 audited financial statements addresses an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, indicating that the Company has incurred losses since its inception and has no on-going operations.  The report further indicates that these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  At March 31, 2020, the Company had a working capital deficit of $402,836 and an accumulated deficit since inception of $897,810. The Company incurred net losses of $36,657 and $26,175 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  The Company has not entered into any agreements or arrangements for the provision of additional debt or equity financing and there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain the additional debt or equity capital required to continue its operations.  

 

The Three Months ended March 31, 2020 compared to March 31, 2019

 

The Company did not conduct any operations during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.  At March 31, 2020, the Company had cash and total current assets in the amount of $1,585, compared to $8,761 at December 31, 2019.  At March 31, 2020, the Company had total current liabilities of $404,421, compared to $375,012 at December 31, 2019.  The Company had a working capital deficit of $402,836 at March 31, 2020 compared to $366,251 at December 31, 2019.

 

The Company did not generate revenues during the three-month periods ending March 31, 2020 or 2019.  The Company incurred general and administrative expenses of $26,229 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $18,421 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.  Such expenses consist primarily of legal and accounting fees as well as taxes and annual fees required to maintain the Company’s corporate status.   

 

The Company incurred other expenses of $10,428 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $7,754 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.  Total other income and expenses consist of interest expense related to the notes payable due from the Company.  Increase in interest expense is due to the increase in debt issued by the Company.  

 

The Company incurred a net loss of $36,657 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a net loss of $26,175 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.  The increase in net loss in 2020 as compared to 2019 was due to the increased professional fees related to the Company maintaining its status and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and an increase in interest expense on the recently issued debt.   


11



The Company has never had substantial ongoing operations. As a result, since its inception on July 26, 1990, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $897,810 as of March 31, 2020.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Net cash used by operating activities was $13,576 and $17,284 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities was $-0- during both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6,400 and $50,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Since the Company does not generate any revenues from operations, it is dependent on sales of securities, loans, or contributions from its stockholders in order to pay its operating costs. In addition, in the event the Company locates a suitable candidate for potential acquisition, the Company will require additional funds to pay the costs of negotiating and completing the acquisition of such candidate.  The Company has not entered into any agreement or arrangement for the provision of any additional funding and no assurances can be given that such funding will be available to the Company on terms acceptable to it or at all.  

 

The Company cannot presently foresee the cash requirements of any business opportunity which may ultimately be acquired by the Company.  However, since it is likely that any business it acquires will be involved in active business operations, the Company anticipates that an acquisition will result in increased cash requirements as well as increases in the number of employees of the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Due to the lack of current operations and limited business activities, the Company does not have any accounting policies that it believes are critical to facilitate an investor’s understanding of the Company’s financial and operating status.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable.  The Company is a “smaller reporting company.”

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2020, the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020 were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.  A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can


12



provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
