Business Overview
Cosmo Ventures Inc. (“Cosmo Ventures” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 3, 2013. We are an early stage company that plans to commence operations as an online retailer offering discounted overstocked inventory items. We intend to launch a web-based platform that will give our potential customers the ability to purchase our discounted products. Cosmo Ventures Inc. will procure merchandise purchased from the surplus inventories of manufacturers and retailers throughout India.
Although the sale of discounted overstock products in an online marketplace is not entirely new, we anticipate that this medium will continue to grow. We believe that by providing a simple, yet effective, website platform, Cosmo Ventures will become a sought after marketplace for our e-consumers. Most cellular phones are equipped to handle text messages, emails, and mobile websites that contain information on our products. Having the ability to instantly contact potential customers both locally and nationwide is one of the major benefits of this marketing strategy. Cosmo Ventures can send instant coupons, promotional messages, and much more online to our opt-in subscribers.
We hope to realize our full plan of operations by raising additional funds through the additional sale of our Company stock. We will design a full marketing strategy to gain brand awareness, and ultimately obtain a large opt-in subscriber base.
We do not intend to carry a surplus inventory nor does our business require a storage facility. We intended to offer the public access to a variety of retailers and manufacturer products under one website. Our customers will purchase products that will be shipped directly from our future partnered suppliers, shipping cost will be an additional charge passed on to the consumer. Majority of our expenses will be incurred on marketing, employees, web and mobile development and maintenance. Our intention is to generate revenue from our future suppliers as we will offer them our marketing services to clear their overstock or retail items. We intend to charge our suppliers a fee based on the advertising package they choose, which will allow them to advertise a certain number or products per month on our website. We intend to establish a negotiated base rate on each item with our clients, once we list the items they will be sold at a price Cosmo has formulated and Cosmo is entitled to the additional profits, if any, on the items sold.
Once we secure additional funding through the sale of common stock we will rent a small office space in a location convenient to our business needs and suppliers. We have not secured an office location and will be contracting out to our web developer, and sales representative as their primary focus is field work. We will try to work within our budget to execute our business plan with our primary focus on web/mobile development before we secure a physical office location.
Our products will be sold in US dollar (USD) and our suppliers will be paid in Indian rupee’s (INR). Currency conversion will be a risk in which we may lose all our profits, as the market is unpredictable and fluctuates on a daily basis. Generally speaking the US dollar is more profitable than the Indian rupee and we hope to capitalize more on our profits with the exchange rate by using forward contracts with our future suppliers. A forward contract will allow us to agree on an exchange rate which is fixed at the time the contract is entered in to, and buy or sell currency at an agreed future date. Our vendors may not agree to these terms and we may lose additional money in foreign exchange fluctuations that will adversely affect our business. We have not yet established any relationships with suppliers for our business

Corporate History
The Company was incorporated by its President and sole director Sonu Ram in the State of Nevada on February 3, 2013 and established a March fiscal year end.
Recent Developments
Capital Stock
The Company’s capitalization is comprised of 75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share. No preferred shares have been authorized or issued.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company has not granted any stock options and has not recorded any stock-based compensation.
On April 30, 2014, the Company entered into stock subscription agreements to issue 3,000,000 shares of its common stock at $0.005 per share for $15,000 in cash. As of March 31, 2015, agreements to issue 3,000,000 shares were executed; of which 1,800,000 shares were issued for net proceeds of $9,000.

Industry Analysis/Competition
Market/Competition Analysis
The Company’s challenge will be the increasing competition to attract customers to the website. We believe that too often, sales are lost because of complex websites that are far from intuitive. We intend to operate in a very competitive market and on popular search engines such as Google, Firefox Mozilla, and similar sites. Through advertising on popular search engines, our potential customers begin their search for online merchandise through general searches rather than through the established platforms of our competitors. We intend to spend large sums on acquiring search engine promotions. The only way to overcome the search engine filtering by customers is to build a strong brand so that when customers look for value, they know that Cosmo Ventures provides it and start their search directly from our website. We believe in order to be successful, an online web retailer must be a low cost operator, own a strong brand, attract high consumer traffic, offering quality merchandise and great prices with superior customer service.
The market for selling over stock items online is a relatively new, yet growing industry. We expect to compete with these other service providers principally on the bases of the quality of services we intend to offer customers and in our Company's ability to acquire and retain personnel to market and sell our proposed services. Our Company will also compete on the bases of service price. Our principal competitors include BIDZ.com, Overstock.com, Amazon and Bluefly (all of which offer services similar to our proposed services). Numerous other second tier resellers are entering into the marketplace, consisting of independent marketing consultants who are reselling and not operating their own web and mobile platform.
We anticipate that most, if not all, of our competitors will initially have greater name and brand recognition and access to greater amounts of capital and established relationships with a larger base of current and potential customers. Because of their size and bargaining power, our competitors may be able to purchase equipment, supplies and services at lower prices than us in the initial stages of our development. As a result, our operations may be significantly and negatively impacted by our larger, more established competitors. Once we commence our operations, if we are not able to generate enough revenue by attracting new and existing businesses and/or by enticing users to opt into our services, we may be forced to cease operations.

The industry has minimal and low cost barriers to entry and therefore it is a very competitive market. We will face many large and small competitors in the e-commerce retail business, including eBay, Amazon, Buy.com, Shop.com, and other similar websites.
Easy entry does not necessarily mean that a new entrant can build a web presence, traffic, and customer base. The Cosmo Ventures business model consists of selling the overstock of other wholesale retailers from India in North America. Merchandise we intend to offer on our site will be competitively priced to benefit our potential customers. We believe an online business model is better positioned to succeed if it employs: brand/traffic, heaviest discounter reputation, low cost operations, and customer satisfaction.
We anticipate Overstock.com and Amazon (‘Competitors’) to be our biggest competition. Although we will be a smaller independent online, retailer one of our goals will be to attract our Competitor’s clients to our business. These two highly branded companies are well established with a worldwide presence. Our effort to compete with them shows the need for such companies, and higher online consumer purchases. Our point of difference from our competition is our Indian manufactured merchandise, which we believe will be enough to turn over some loyal customers who seek a bargain over brand
Marketing Strategy
We have begun initial market research and anticipate conducting in depth market research to develop a strategy which in our opinion could launch our Company and provide us with rapid growth if executed properly.
We plan to focus on three key factors when marketing our services to local businesses:
Timing – With the ever-expanding market of mobile (and smartphone) users now is the time to make the most out of mobile website and application. We believe the competition is small at this point, and businesses can create a presence before it gets cluttered.
Integration – Mobile phone users are doing more and more on their phones, especially with the rise in smartphone sales. If a business is at all serious about a comprehensive and integrated marketing strategy for their company, mobile has to be a part of it.
Consumers – Businesses can put their products and services in front of their target market of consumers quickly and easily. We intend to use mobile marketing as a strategy for impulse consumer purchases.
We intend to market our business online with emails, door to door sales visits, and cold calling to build relationships and attract retailers. We intend to offer our first 100 customers unlimited online advertising as a sign-up incentive. Our sales representatives will bear the responsibility of field recruitment which we anticipate to bring in the bulk of our suppliers.
To obtain first time users, we plan to mail out flyers, run banner advertisements, and send out mass emails to direct web traffic to our web or mobile site. Our marketing efforts need to be consistent to drive a high volume of viewers to our webpage. We anticipate our conversion of first time browsers to purchasers will be 1 in every 75 viewers based on our products and prices. Our focus must remain on featured deals of the week and gorilla marketing to establish brand awareness.
We also intend to have a strong presence in social media, such as Facebook, twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn. The Company is also considering developing a App that will make it easier for consumers to access and purchase our overstock products.
Patent and Trademarks
We do no currently own any domestic or foreign patents relating to our proposed products.
Employees
As of March 31, 2016, other than its President, Mr. Sonu Ram, the Company has no other employees.

Plan of Operations
We intend to begin the implementation of our business plan. In order to initiate our operations, we will have to raise additional capital to hire at least one website and mobile application developer. While our mobile application is being developed, we will begin the initial preparations for the launch of our website. Assuming we are able to raise additional capital. Our Plan of Operations for the next 12 to 18 months include:
1. Raising capital – We will begin raising additional funding through the sale of our securities or debt financing.
2. Platform development – We plan to hire a website developer to begin the construction of our website.
3. Hire additional staff/consultants – When our mobile application is near its completion, we will begin hiring additional staff to prepare for our launch. We plan to hire a full-time sales representative to begin creating relationships and obtain contracts with suppliers within our local area. Our sales representative will be in charge of helping to develop our brand awareness with potential clients. We will use the marketing ideas of our President, Sonu Ram, as set forth in our “Marketing Strategy” section. However, we will look to our new employees to come up with new and innovative ways to promote our Company.
4. Beta testing – Once our website and mobile application is fully developed, and our sales and marketing team are in place, we will begin beta testing our website and mobile application.
The final phase of our business plan and development will be defined by the launch and marketing of our website and mobile application to the general public. This Phase shall be characterized by the following:
1. Acquisition of clients – When we are ready to offer our web services to the public, we intend to launch a marketing campaign ourselves in order to promote our website to potential manufacturers. We will also offer six months of free, unlimited postings to the first 100 businesses that sign up for our services. We will offer our future suppliers our marketing services to sell off their retail and overstocked items, but their Companies will not be advertised on our website. We want customers to purchase directly through our website to help us build our web presence.
2. Acquisition of users – When we are ready to offer our web services to the public, we will also launch a marketing campaign to promote our services to potential users to purchase overstocked discounted items, so that we may rapidly grow our user base so that we may have enough users for potential clients to deem our services valuable.
In order to complete our final phase of our business plan, we will rely heavily on the management skills of our President. He will have to work closely with our sales and marketing team to make sure that there is constant communication between each. The sales of our services will be directly related to the work that our marketing team is providing. In the months that follow our launch, the work of our website developers will be critical as well. We hope to be in a phase of rapid growth, and our developers will be working hard to provide constant updates to our site, and fix any bugs that may occur. Our President will have to work hard to keep all components of our business on track
Going Concern
Our auditor has indicated in report on our financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, that conditions exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our recurring losses from operations, deficit in equity, and the need to raise additional capital to fund operations. A “going concern” opinion could impair our ability to finance our operations through the sale of debt or equity securities.
Results of Operations
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 compared to March 31, 2015
We did not earn any revenues for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
Expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 totaled $2,063 consisting primarily of office and general expenses of $2,063 resulting in a net loss of $2,063. Expenses for the year ended March 31, 2015 totaled $7,529 consisting primarily of office and general expenses of $7,529, resulting in a net loss of $7,529. The decrease in office and general expenses from fiscal 2016 to fiscal 2015 was primarily due to the decrease in expenses relating to filing and professional fees.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Our auditor’s report on our March 31, 2016 and 2015 financial statements expresses an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business. Since our director maybe unwilling or unable to loan or advance us additional capital, we believe that if we do not raise additional capital over the next 12 months, we may be required to suspend or cease the implementation of our business plans.
As of March 31, 2016, we had $7,159 of cash compared to $4,507 of cash as of March 31, 2015. We anticipate that our current cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from financing activities will be insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for the next 12 months. To date, the Company has incurred operating losses since inception of $22,187. As at March 31, 2016, the Company has working capital of $2,813.
The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
We expect to incur marketing and professional and administrative expenses as well expenses associated with maintaining our filings with the Commission. We will require additional funds during this time and will seek to raise the necessary additional capital. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our business development activities, which could harm our business plans, financial condition and operating results. Additional funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. The Company intends to continue to fund its business by way of equity or debt financing and advances from related parties. Any inability to raise capital as needed would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we cannot raise additional funds, we will have to cease business operations. As a result, investors in the Company’s common stock would lose all of their investment.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements currently contemplated by management or in place that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the business, financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, result of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures and/or capital resources.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISLCOSURES
There have been no changes in or disagreements with accountants regarding our accounting, financial disclosures or any other matter.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 A. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on conducting such assessments as of the end of the period covered by this report. Management conducted the assessment based on certain criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2016.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company's Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of March 31, 2016 and communicated the matters to our management.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an affect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures can result in the Company's determination to its financial statements for the future years.
We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company: i) Appointing one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and ii) Preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the company may encounter in the future.
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the small business issuer's last fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes that have affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016.

Director Independence
Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, Sonu Ram, who does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exists which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.
Involvement in Legal Proceedings
To our knowledge, there have been no material legal proceedings during the last ten years that would require disclosure under the federal securities laws that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of any of our directors or executive officers.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
We are not aware of any current or potential conflicts of interest with Mr. Ram or other business interests and his involvement with Cosmo Ventures Inc.

Employment Contracts

Stock Awards Plan
The company has not adopted a Stock Awards Plan, but may do so in the future. The terms of any such plan have not been determined.
Director Compensation
The Board of Directors of the Company has not adopted a stock option plan. The company has no plans to adopt it but may choose to do so in the future. If such a plan is adopted, this may be administered by the board or a committee appointed by the board (the “Committee”). The committee would have the power to modify, extend or renew outstanding options and to authorize the grant of new options in substitution therefore, provided that any such action may not impair any rights under any option previously granted. Cosmo Ventures Inc. may develop an incentive based stock option plan for its officers and directors and may reserve up to 10% of its outstanding shares of common stock for that purpose.

Board Committees
We have not formed an Audit Committee, Compensation Committee or Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as of the filing of this Annual Report. Our Board of Directors performs the principal functions of an Audit Committee. We currently do not have an audit committee financial expert on our Board of Directors. We believe that an audit committee financial expert is not required because the cost of hiring an audit committee financial expert to act as one of our directors and to be a member of an Audit Committee outweighs the benefits of having an audit committee financial expert at this time.
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our voting securities by (i) each director and named executive officer, (ii) all executive officers and directors as a group; and (iii) each shareholder known to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of March 31, 2016.
14 |
Table of Contents |
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Generally, a person is considered to beneficially own securities: (i) over which such person, directly or indirectly, exercises sole or shared voting or investment power, and (ii) of which such person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time within 60 days (such as through exercise of stock options or warrants). For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares held by each person or group of persons, any shares that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days of March 31, 2016 are deemed to be outstanding, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Cosmo Ventures Inc.
Punjabe, India
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cosmo Ventures Inc. as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended. Cosmo Ventures Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cosmo Ventures Inc. as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Cosmo Ventures Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, Cosmo Ventures Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company
Cosmo Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 3, 2013, with a year end of March 31. The Company intends to purchase overstocked inventory items from manufacturers and retailers and offer them to the public at discounted prices via a web-based on-line store.
Basis of Presentation
These financial statements are presented in the United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Earnings (Loss) per Common Share
The basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. The diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company. As of March 31, 2016, there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances and tax loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company estimates the fair value of each stock-based compensation award at the grant date by using Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value determined represents the cost of the award and is recognized over the vesting period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. As stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on awards ultimately expected to vest. Excess tax benefits, if any, are recognized as additional paid in capital.

Notes to Financial Statements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
To date the Company has generated no revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses of $22,187 since inception. The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fund its business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

During the years ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, the Company’s CEO loaned the Company $3,950 and $2,800, respectively. The balance due is unsecured and non-interest-bearing with no set terms of repayment.

The amount taken into income as deferred income tax assets must reflect that portion of the income tax loss carry forwards that is more likely-than-not to be realized from future operations. The Company has chosen to provide a full valuation allowance against all available income tax loss carry forwards. The Company has recognized a valuation allowance for the deferred income tax asset since the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. The valuation allowance is reviewed annually. When circumstances change and which cause a change in management's judgment about the realizability of deferred income tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in current income.
As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has no unrecognized income tax benefits. The Company’s policy for classifying interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits is to include such items as tax expense. No interest or penalties have been recorded during the year ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. No interest or penalties have been accrued as of March 31, 2016 and 2015. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.
