Basic loss per share was reported as $(0.00), rounded.

- Equity: The company reported 5,825,000 common shares outstanding at August 31 and as of October 3. It raised $50,000 from common-share sales during the nine-month period, including $35,500 from 1,775,000 shares sold in the registered offering.
Changes, outlook, and risks
- The filing does not provide a prior-year comparable quarterly income statement. Against the November 30, 2012 balance sheet, cash increased from zero to $38,394, while the company raised equity and accumulated a $17,552 deficit. Management attributes expenses primarily to registration and public-company costs.
- The registered offering closed September 10, 2013, after quarter-end. Management planned to complete and maintain its website, develop green-building fact sheets, market services, and seek initial consulting work. Its estimated 12-month plan totaled $55,000, including $30,000 for SEC reporting and related costs.
- Management stated that available cash would not fund the planned $55,000 of operations and that officers had verbally agreed to advance funds as needed. The filing says this understanding is unwritten and unenforceable. A separate note says the controlling shareholder’s support pledge has no written commitment.
- The filing identifies substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, citing no revenue, accumulated losses, and dependence on additional financing and business development. Management intended to seek further public or private financing.
- No commitments or contingencies or material pending legal proceedings were reported. The company disclosed material weaknesses in internal controls, including no functioning audit committee, insufficient independent board oversight, inadequate segregation of duties, and management dominated by one individual. Management said these weaknesses had not affected reported results but could contribute to future misstatements.
- The company changed its registered independent accountant on July 15, 2013. Management’s subsequent-event review through October 14, 2013, identified no other events requiring disclosure.
Key facts for investors to verify
- Confirm the intended issuer and reporting period: the supplied filing names Global System Designs, Inc., not TON Strategy Co.
- Assess whether the company obtained additional financing and whether the officers’ verbal funding support was formalized.
- Verify the offering proceeds and cash-flow figures; the filing reports $54,750 of nine-month financing proceeds and $55,700 cumulatively since inception.
- Track whether the website, fact sheets, marketing, and consulting operations launched and generated revenue, and compare actual spending with the $55,000 plan.
- Review whether the disclosed internal-control weaknesses and going-concern uncertainty were addressed in subsequent filings.
