Outdoor Holding Co — 2011 Form 10-K Summary
Issuer and period: The request identifies Outdoor Holding Co, but the supplied filing is for Retrospettiva, Inc. The filing covers the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, not a standalone fourth quarter. The company was a dormant/development-stage shell seeking a merger or acquisition; it had no operating business or revenue.
Financial results and liquidity
- Revenue: $0 in 2011 and 2010.
- Net loss: $26,243 in 2011, versus $33,853 in 2010. Loss per share was reported as nil for both years.
- Expenses and interest: Operating expenses were $12,607, down from $21,565; interest expense rose to $12,837 from $11,488. The filing attributes lower operating costs mainly to reduced accounting/audit and investor-relations expenses, and higher interest to increased note balances.
- Cash flow: Net cash used in operating activities was $15,195, compared with $16,668 in 2010. Stockholder-note proceeds funded that amount; year-end cash was $0.
- Liquidity: No current assets and current liabilities of $228,859 at year-end, producing a $228,859 working-capital deficit, up $26,243 from 2010. Stockholders’ deficit was also $228,859.
- Debt and obligations: Current liabilities included $166,874 of stockholder notes and $45,145 of accrued interest. Notes bear 8% interest, are unsecured and due on demand; one note is convertible at $0.10 per share. The company also owed its president $6,934 in non-interest-bearing, on-demand advances.
- Margins: Not meaningful because the company reported no revenue.
Changes, outlook, and risks
- The net loss narrowed year over year, while the working-capital deficit increased. There was no significant change in activity; the company incurred some costs for a proposed merger that was not completed.
- Management intended to continue searching for a merger, acquisition, or similar transaction, but disclosed no target, agreement, or timetable and could not predict when or whether a transaction would occur. No significant capital expenditures were anticipated for the next 12 months.
- The company said it would need additional funding and had relied on stockholder loans, with no assurance that stockholders could or would provide future funding. Management reported no current plans to raise capital.
- The auditor’s report and management’s disclosures state that recurring losses, negative working capital, stockholders’ deficit, and no revenue-generating operations raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements include no adjustments for that uncertainty.
- Management concluded disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting were ineffective, citing lack of segregation of duties and accounting software limitations. The auditor did not attest to internal-control effectiveness.
- The filing describes potential dilution and transfer of control in a future transaction; existing shareholders could retain a minority position. The stock was subject to penny-stock rules, and reported OTC quotations are not necessarily prices at which trades occurred.
- No legal proceedings with a material expected impact and no off-balance-sheet arrangements were reported. The filing identifies general risks including ability to raise capital, third-party performance, costs, regulation, acquisitions, economic conditions, and stock-price volatility.
Important facts to verify
- Issuer identity: Confirm whether this Retrospettiva, Inc. filing is the intended filing for Outdoor Holding Co.

- Review the going-concern disclosures and ineffective-controls findings when assessing the reliability and sustainability of reported financial information.
- Verify whether any merger or acquisition proposal subsequently emerged, and assess potential dilution, conversion terms, and change-of-control effects.
- Check the filing’s statement that it has no current revenue or business operations against any later company disclosures.
