Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Cessation of Operations: The Company discontinued its lighting business in June 2008. Consequently, continuing operations revenue dropped to $0, whereas 2007 included $3,263 in discontinued operations revenue.
- Increased Losses: Net loss increased significantly from $(9,544) in 2007 to $(52,636) in 2008. This was driven primarily by a rise in general and administrative expenses (professional, legal, and accounting fees) from $13,617 to $53,490.
- Liquidity Decline: Cash on hand plummeted from $21,768 in 2007 to $317 in 2008.
- Capital Structure: In August 2008, the Company sold 1,200,000 shares for $30,000 gross proceeds. In August 2007, a change of control occurred when Steven L. White purchased 15,000,000 shares for $15,000.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Going Concern: The independent auditor has raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern due to net losses, negative operating cash flows, and discontinued operations.
- Liquidity Needs: Management anticipates expenses of approximately $20,000 for the next twelve months. Current working capital ($757) is insufficient. The Company plans to seek financing through loans or stock sales, potentially relying on advances from the President or shareholders.
- Future Strategy: The Company is actively searching for a business acquisition or reverse merger. No specific target has been identified. Upon acquisition, current management is expected to resign, and current shareholders will likely experience significant dilution.
- Internal Controls: Management identified material weaknesses in internal controls due to the lack of segregation of duties (sole officer/director handles all financial reporting) and the absence of an audit committee.
- Subsequent Events: In April and May 2009, the Company received $11,000 in loans from the sole officer/shareholder, due on demand at 8% interest.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Capital Adequacy: Verify if the Company has secured the additional financing required to meet the estimated $20,000 annual operating expense, given the $317 cash balance.
- Acquisition Status: Confirm if a specific acquisition target has been identified or if negotiations are underway, as the business model relies entirely on a future merger.
- Related Party Transactions: Review the terms of the $11,000 in loans received from the sole officer in 2009 and the potential for further reliance on insider funding.
- Stock Liquidity: Note that the stock was only approved for OTC/BB quotation on April 30, 2009; verify current trading volume and bid/ask spreads.
- Internal Controls: Assess the risk of financial misstatement given the material weakness in internal controls and the lack of an independent audit committee.
