PART I
ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on August 12, 2010, are a development stage company, and had revenues of $59,463 at December 31, 2016. The revenues are cost of goods sold and are receivables. At December 31, 2016, we had total assets of $89,050, consisting of cash of $10,833, and accounts receivable of $61,836. Our total liabilities at December 31, 2016, were $1,371,212.
Since March 2011 we have been, and presently are, engaged in the development of a social networking website, www.kababayanko.com, for overseas workers from the Philippines and others who share or are interested in their lifestyle. Our fiscal year end is December 31, and we have no subsidiaries. Our social networking website aims to provide overseas workers from the Philippines with a platform to share their overseas working and living experiences, and interact with a community of Filipino overseas workers from around the world. The address of our principal executive office is 11801 Pierce St., 2nd Floor, Riverside, California 92505. Our telephone number is (888) 770-5084. We have a website located at www.kababayanko.com
Eleazar Rivera has served as our President, Secretary, Treasurer and a Director from March 29, 2011, until the current date. Our board of directors is comprised of one person: Eleazar Rivera
We are authorized to issue 8,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, and 2,000,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share.
We operate a social networking website that focuses on building online communities of overseas workers from the Philippines. Our website, www.kababayanko.com, enables overseas workers from the Philippines and others who share or are interested in their lifestyle to chat, post pictures and videos, share experiences and make voice calls. Our website, www.kababayanko.com, is accessible, was publicly launched in May 2012, has approximately 100 members and approximately 13,700 “likes” on Facebook. kababayanko.com is enabled to allow members and visitors to select a display our website in Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano and other languages of the Philippines, English, Chinese and other languages.

We plan to generate revenues through the sale of our premium package services, which allows members of other popular social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, to join our website with their current username without the need to register as new members on our website, at a cost of $12.50 to $125.00 per year and (ii) advertising space on our website.
We plan to focus our efforts on driving visitors to our website by promoting our website with Google Adwords and making our website more accessible to visitors from other social networks such as Facebook and Twitter and by adding language translations to foreign visitors. We will also attempt to generate revenues by negotiating agreements with third-party merchants to display their goods on our site and pay us a commission if our visitors purchase their products. We have identified some merchants who currently offer their products through our online store, but plan to identify and enter into selling arrangements more merchants, though there can be no assurance that we will be able to once we reach this stage in our business development.
Provided we raise sufficient proceeds from the offering, although there can be no assurance at the present time, we expect to start generating revenues within 4 to 6 months following launch.
We are in the early stage of our business plan. We currently have little revenues and few premium members of our website. Our activities to date have been limited to organizational matters, development of our business plan, development of our website, and efforts related to becoming a publicly traded company.
Our offices are currently located at 11801 Pierce St., 2nd Floor, Riverside, California 92505.
SOCIAL NETWORKING WEBSITES, GENERALLY
Social networking websites provide internet users with services that allow them to form, join, or participate in online communities and to communicate with others regarding common interests and pursuits. Social networking websites have experienced increasing popularity in the last decade, and many sites have grown into broad networks encompassing tens of millions of users. Our management believes that the popularity of general interest social networking sites, such as Facebook, has opened the door for more specialized and exclusive services that cater to special interest groups.
OUR WEBSITE
We have acquired web hosting space for our website at the cost of approximately $500 per month. Our website, at www.kababayanko.com is accessible and fully operational. To date our website has the following functions and services:
• | Member Profiles: Subscribers can customize their profile pages with their own design, using profile applications, and may choose to make their profile public or private to other subscribers; |
• | Photos and Videos: Subscribers can upload and share photos and videos; |
• | Voice Calling: Subscribers can place voice calls, using our VOIP platform, to other persons; |
• | Chat and Discussion Forum: Subscribers can chat in real-time with other subscribers and single or multi-threaded discussion forum with categories, photos and attachments; and |
• | Karaoke services, competitions and challenges: These karaoke features can be linked to Youtube. |
We have developed our own voice calling and karaoke modules and platforms through the use of independent contractor software programmers, which became operational for our members in August 2012. A have a connection from the data center from our website, www. kababayanko.com to the main data center of our telecom data center.

EBID SERVICES
Our EBID services allow our members to open their own online stores on our website where they can sell items, receive payments, and manage the appearance of their store fronts, as they appear on our website.
We operate our EBID services by allowing our members to list items for sale to be purchased immediately, for sale to this highest bidder, or both. We plan to generate revenues through this service by charging sellers who use it a 10% sales commission for each item sold. Our members who use our EBID services can enter a length (in days) to list an item for sale, upload photos, categorize, set a price for immediate purchase (and bidding reserve), enter item location, provide a description, and purchase listing enhancements like bold, italic, highlighted, and/or pay to feature their listing. The item will be active until the time expires or until the quantity is sold, whichever comes first. While the item is being offered for sale, other site prospective purchasers will be able to either bid on the item or immediately purchase the item. After a purchaser has decided to purchase an item(s) with by way of bid, or when they are checking out by way of immediate purchase, our EBID services will ask the purchaser of the item for shipping information, any item configuration options, and direct to pay the seller. Payments are made by the purchase of the item through a gateway on our website. Once a purchaser has made payment, we charge the seller a 10% sales commission which we retain, and 90% of the sales price is directed to the seller.
We have never declared bankruptcy, never been in receivership, and have never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since becoming incorporated, we have not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor have we been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations. Neither the Company, nor our officers, directors, promoters or affiliates, has had preliminary contact or discussions with, nor do we have any present plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any representatives of the owners of any business or company regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger.
REVENUE MODEL
PREMIUM PACKAGE SERVICES
Visitors to our website are able review posts and search general sections of the website for free. However, members are charged $12.50 to $125.00 per year if they would like to use our premium package services, which includes advertising, selling goods and services on our market place, VOIP calling and, in approximately August 2012, karaoke features. The extra features available to subscribers of our premium package services will include the ability to start a personal blog on our website, for example.
ADVERTISEMENT SPACE
One of the major benefits of advertising on a social networking site is that advertisers can take advantage of the users’ demographic information and target their ads appropriately. We intend to sell advertisement space to companies who are interested in targeting our subscribers. We anticipate that interested advertisers will include (i) money remittance agencies targeting overseas Filipino workers, (ii) real estate agencies in the Philippines targeting overseas Filipino workers who intend to purchase real estate upon their return to the Philippines, (iii) merchants in the Philippines targeting overseas Filipino workers who purchase gifts for delivery to their families in the Philippines, (iv) employers recruiting Filipinos to work outside of the Philippines, and (v) suppliers of lifestyle products and services catering to our target market. We intend to sell advertising space on our website, through Connection Junction at a rate of $0.15 per click of an ad appearing on the website. Advertisements will appear on all of our web pages in a vertically oriented sidebar or in banners across the webpage.
Additionally, we intend in the future to participate in the Google AdSense service. Google AdSense is a free service, which displays text-only ads that correspond to the keywords of the content of the page on which the ad is shown. Each time a user of a host website clicks on an AdSense advertisement, Google provides a flat fee to the operators of that website on behalf of the applicable advertiser. We were experimenting with the integration of “dummy” advertisements by Google with our social network website, and we have since removed these advertisements. We have not yet applied to Google AdSense program but do intend to do so once our website has been publicly launched. We did not generate any AdSense related income and since Google pays a different fee rate according to the niche your website occupies, we do not yet know what this fee will be.
3
SALE OF THIRD-PARTY GOODS
We plan to offer our members a marketplace service to sell goods, such as, clothes, handbags and fashion accessories. We will display on our website ads to items that are available for purchase, these ads will be linked to the merchant’s store, once a member of our site clicks on it he will be redirected to the merchant’s store to complete the purchase, once the sale is completed we will be paid a commission by the merchant. We have not yet identified potential merchants, with the exception of several selling handbags and clothing.
COMPETITION AND COMPETITIVE STRATEGY
The social networking website industry is highly competitive and, at times, subject to rapidly changing consumer preferences and industry trends. Competition is generally a function of the website’s brand strength and the success of its marketing strategies, its user capacity and reliability, and its ability to accommodate and integrate evolving technology and features (such as smart-phone or Twitter compatibility, for example). Additionally, with regard to the online retail component of our business, competition is generally a function of the assortment and continuity of merchandise selection offered, reliable order fulfillment and delivery, and the level of brand support for products offered.
We will be required to compete with a large number of niche social networking and merchandising websites, many of which have significantly greater resources than we do. Many of our competitors also have the ability to develop and market products and services similar to (and competitive with) our products and services. Specifically, we compete with the major niche social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter. We also compete with several smaller niche social websites brands such as sosyalan.com, risingstars.ph and greatpinoy.com. We believe that we are currently one of the smallest in the industry, as we currently have only a nominal web presence and no revenues from our main business operations.
Management believes we can offset any such competitive disadvantages by being a price leader in the marketplace, first by offering free access to our website, and thereafter by offering more competitively priced premium package services. Initially, general subscriptions to our site are free and premium package subscriptions are approximately $12.50 to $125.00 per year. We will also seek to differentiate ourselves by providing our subscribers with more attractive social network features, such as tools for subscribers to easily communicate with each other.
MARKETING & SALES STRATEGY
The use of Internet is continuing to evolve as a global platform for doing business. Our major focus in the first year will be to use Google Adwords program in order to drive traffic to our own website. We plan to take advantage of the well established Google Adwords marketing program which places online ads on the search result pages of Internet users. Google uses an advertising methodology referred to as cost-per-click (“CPC”) in its Adwords program. Using this strategy will allow us to design our own ads, and to select target locations such as a city or state and use keywords in our ads. A keyword is a word that is used by an Internet user who is performing an online search to find out information on a specific topic.
Our primary target market is focused on Internet users who already participate in social networking websites. With CPC advertising, we only pay for the number of actual clicks on our advertisement. Each time someone clicks on our Google ad they will be redirected to our web site. A CPC-based advertising strategy is cost effective because an advertiser only pays for the leads they receive. The CPC marketing campaign is an integral part of our long term strategy. Our marketing campaign will monitor daily statistics and track favorite topics in order to quickly get in synch with our Internet audience. This is a significant part of our branding strategy.
ONLINE ADVERTISING
The majority of our advertising and promotional activities will be concentrated on an online advertising campaign using Google Adwords. We have selected Google because of its success and popularity for web users wishing to find something using an internet search. The Google Adwords program will allow us to customize the text of our advertisements, the frequency of each advertisement’s appearance, and the length of the advertising contract. For our purposes, we believe that this will give us the maximum amount of flexibility and allow us to closely monitor the costs of the marketing campaign.
4
We currently do not have the ability to advertise on mobile devices because we do not have a software application (or “app”) for mobile devices. The fact that we do not have a software application able to support advertising on mobile devices will likely mean that we will have less advertising revenue that if we have had such a software application. We have planned for the development of such an application in the first three line items of our Use of Proceeds table on page 15. The first three line items are: OCW (Overseas Contract Workers) Social Networking Site, Global Karaoke Social Networking Sites and EBID services, and much of the software code which needs to be developed for those three line items is the same software code we need for a software application which supports advertising on mobile devices. We expect the total development cost to be approximately $300,000. There can be no assurance that we will raise the approximately $300,000 required to develop a software application which supports advertising on mobile devices.
EMAIL ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN
We anticipate that an information style email advertising campaign may help to enhance our online advertising campaign and bring us into direct contact with people who are interested in using our services. In this regard, we are considering acquiring email lists, which may be done on an incremental basis so as not to incur a large expense before determining whether an email campaign works and meets our expectations.
We have budgeted a minimum of $10,000 and a maximum of $20,000 for advertising, marketing and sales during the 12 months following completion of this Offering. We intend to hire a marketing manager to be responsible for managing all of our marketing and sales activities.
SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF PRODUCTS AND SUPPLIES
We will be developing our own website, and the distribution of our website services will be over the Internet. We intend to engage the services of independent contractors in relation to web design and programming as we may require. We believe there are no constraints on the sources or availability of products, supplies, or suppliers related to our business.
DEPENDENCE ON ONE OR A FEW MAJOR CUSTOMERS
Our website will be available to the general public over the Internet. Initially, general subscriptions will be free, and premium package subscriptions will be $12.50 to $125.00 per year. As our subscription fees will be priced for mass market consumption, we do not anticipate dependence on one or a few major customers for the foreseeable future.

Results of Operations
For the year ended December 31, 2016, we generated revenues of $59,463. The revenues are cost of goods sold and are receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we generated revenues of $56,924. Our revenues were generated in 2016 and 2015, were primarily from the sale of the food supplements on an on-line marketplace.
Our gross profits for the year ended December 31, 2016 were $21,288, as compared to gross profits of $8,937 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, we incurred total operating expenses of $379,072, consisting of marketing expenses of $244, wages of $301,500, rent of $1,593, travel of $25,289, professional fees of $27,376, office supplies of $456, computer and internet costs of $15,879, and other general and administrative expense of $24,735.

Accordingly, our total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2016, were $107,700 less than for December 31, 2015. The decrease in operating expenses was due primarily to a decrease in our stock-based compensation decreased by 100% from $101,600 in fiscal 2015 to $0 in fiscal 2016.
We incurred net losses of $375,784 and $527,093 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Going Concern
Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc. is a development stage company and currently has limited operations. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion for Alpha Network Alliance Ventures which includes a statement raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance at December 31, 2016 was $10,833 with $1,371,212 in outstanding liabilities. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are expected to be approximately $3,750,000, in order to complete our 12-month plan of operation, more fully described below in the section titled, “Plan of Operation.” If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our director, who has informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

We currently do not have any agreements or arrangements regarding financing our plan of operation, and we may not be able to obtain financing when required. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain further financing, the successful development of our planned business consulting services, a successful marketing and promotion program, and achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms we find favorable. At this time, there are no anticipated sources of additional funds in place. Failure to secure the needed additional financing will have an adverse effect on our ability to remain in business.
OFF BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS
We have had no off balance sheet transactions.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc.(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (Untied 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 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 Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc. as of December 31, 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for 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 the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #2 to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note #2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
The Company was originally organized in the State of Delaware on March 24, 2011 as Daedalus Ventures, Inc.
In December 2011 the Company completed a merger with Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc. Immediately upon the completion of the merger, the Company changed its name to Alpha Network Alliance Ventures Inc.
The Company is focused on building and operating a social networking software application and other internet driven applications. The Company builds Social Network Marketing tools that enable buyers, sellers, users to connect, share, discover and communicate with each other. The software application also allows its users to post reviews and share shopping and fashion tips and opinions or to integrate their 3rd party websites or shopping store sites. It also offers products that enable companies, advertisers and marketers to engage with its users using a Social Network Marketing campaign and Social Medial Marketing campaign platform to boost the sales and membership for every affiliate who wants to participate.
The Company’s market is mostly Overseas Contract Workers (OCW) and majority is from the Philippines. The Company decided that it’s appropriate to sell our KababayanKo.com Premium Packages membership with products included to be more attractive and lucrative to every affiliate who buys and upgrades to Premium Packages Membership, and as a result of the promotion they can also purchase the products inside Kababayanko.com Market Place if they want it more.
During 2014, The Company also moved its primary operations to the Philippines. The purpose of this move was to better centrally locate to its primary market. Additionally, the Company plans to recognize lower costs and better distribution.
Recognizing the efficiency and cost effectivity of its operations in the Philippines, the company appointed an independent distributor that will primarily handle the distribution of its product in the Philippines. As a result of this, during 2015, the company has moved its primary operations back in the California, United States.
The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s market penetration before another company develops a similar product.
The Company is in the development stage as defined under Statement on Financial Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Codification FASB ASC 915-205 "Development-Stage Entities.” The Company has adopted the new provision of FASB ASC 915-275 and is not reporting inception to date activities as previously required.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2016
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company maintains a cash balance in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Fair value of financial instruments and derivative financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, and notes payable. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Company did not engage in any transaction involving derivative instruments.
Inventory
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market and is computed on a first-in first-out basis. The inventory consists of weight loss products, energy and performance solutions products and healthy aging solution products.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major repairs and betterments are capitalized and normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Office and general equipment are depreciated over useful lives of 10 years and leasehold improvements are depreciated over a useful life of 20 years. Upon retirement or sale of an asset, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in operations.
Federal income taxes
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification 740.10.05 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 740.10.05, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward to future years.
Net income per share of common stock
Net loss per share is provided in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”. Basic net loss per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued, unless doing so is anti-dilutive.

Common Stock Registration Expenses
The Company considers incremental costs and expenses related to the registration of equity securities with the SEC, whether by contractual arrangement as of a certain date or by demand, to be unrelated to original issuance transactions. As such, subsequent registration costs and expenses are reflected in the accompanying financial statements as general and administrative expenses, and are expensed as incurred.
Research and Development
Costs for research and development, including predevelopment efforts prior to establishing technological feasibility of software expected to be marketed, are expensed as incurred. Development costs are capitalized when technological feasibility has been established and anticipated future revenues support the recoverability of the capitalized amounts. Capitalization stops when the product is available for general release to customers. The Company has not capitalized any software development, and has expensed these costs as incurred. These costs are included in research and development expense.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
For the year ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company does not expect any of the recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Note 2 – Uncertainty, going concern:
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs to allow it to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,197,167. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. The Company is contemplating conducting an offering of its debt or equity securities to obtain additional operating capital. The Company is dependent upon its ability, and will continue to attempt, to secure equity and/or debt financing. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful and without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and 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.

The Company owns real estate in the State of California. This asset was purchased for daily operations. The Company has since moved its basic operations to the Philippines. In 2013, a change in use on the building, improvements and the land was determined and these assets were converted to held for sale assets (see Note 3).
On March 17, 2015, The Company transferred the property and it accrued property taxes of $19,631 to its majority shareholder and reduced the shareholder related party note by $330,369.
Note 5 – Related Party Transactions:
Due to related parties included in the balance sheets as of December 31, 201 and December 31, 2015 were loans from the Company’s director and CEO, Mr. Eleazar Rivera.

Of this amount, $446,212 is designated as advances from stockholders, while $300,000 is designated as deposit for future share subscriptions.

On March 17, 2015, the Company reduced the note balance for the distribution of the held for investment property and accrued property taxes that were transferred out to Mr. Rivera.

· | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
· | Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
· | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statement. |
In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on that evaluation, completed only by Eleazar Rivera, our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director, who also serves as our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, Mr. Rivera concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below.
This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (i) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (ii) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (iii) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Mr. Rivera, our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director, who also serves as our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, in connection with the review of our financial statements as of December 31, 2016.
Management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 10. | DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE |
The following table sets forth, as of the year ended December 31, 2016, and as of April 13, 2017, the names and ages of our directors and executive officers, the principal offices and positions held by each person, and the year such director or officer commenced serving in such capacity:
Name | Director or Officer Since |
Age | Positions | |||
Eleazar Rivera | 2011 | 44 | President and Chief Executive Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director |
Eleazar Rivera
President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director
Eleazar Rivera, has served as our President and Chief Executive Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director since March 28, 2011. From 2007 to the present, Mr. Rivera has devoted most of his time managing his own investments in residential real estate investments as well as income producing businesses like Network Marketing, Social Networking Media and Information Technologies. From 1989 to 1991 Mr. Rivera attended Oriental Technology Institute, in Manila, Philippines, where he completed a Graduate Vocational Electronics Technology course. From 1991 to 1992, Mr. Rivera attended San Pablo Colleges, San Pablo City, Philippines, where he studied Business Administration and majored in Accountancy. From 1992 to 1993, Mr. Rivera attended System Technology Institute, San Pablo City, Philippines, where he studied computer programming. Mr. Rivera’s entrepreneurial desire evidenced by his ideas which led to the establishment of our business, and his education in electronics, accountancy and computer programming led to our conclusion that Mr. Rivera should be serving as a member of our Board of Directors in light of our business and structure.
12
Director Qualifications
We believe that our directors should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values, consistent with our values and standards. They should have broad experience at the policy-making level in business or banking. They should be committed to enhancing stockholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. Their service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all director duties for us. Each director must represent the interests of all stockholders. When considering potential director candidates, the Board also considers the candidate’s character, judgment, diversity, age and skills, including financial literacy and experience in the context of our needs and the needs of the Board.
Significant Employees and Consultants
As of December 31, 2016, Eleazar Rivera is our sole significant employee. We currently have no significant independent contractors or consultants.
Family Relationships
There are no other family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers and any other directors or executive officers.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To our knowledge, our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
· | Any bankruptcy petition filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
· | Any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
· | Being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities or to be associated with any person practicing in banking or securities activities; |
· | Being found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a Federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; |
· | Being subject of, or a party to, any Federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of any Federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or |
· | Being subject of or party to any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization, any registered entity or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. |
Code of Ethics
The Company has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.
13
Term of Office
Our directors are appointed to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance with our Bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our Board and hold office until removed by the Board, absent an employment agreement.
Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires that our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our Common Stock (referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons”) file with the SEC various reports as to their ownership of and activities relating to our Common Stock. To the best of our knowledge, all Reporting Persons complied on a timely basis with all filing requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during the period covered by this report. In making these statements, we have relied solely on our review of copies of the reports furnished to us, representations that no other reports were required and other knowledge relating to transactions involving Reporting Persons.
Conflicts of Interest
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board of Directors established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company is an early development stage company and has only one director, and to date, such director has been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
No interlocking relationship exists between our Board of Directors and the Board of Directors or compensation committee of any other company, nor has any interlocking relationship existed in the past.
Stockholder Communications with The Board of Directors
We have not implemented a formal policy or procedure by which our stockholders can communicate directly with our Board of Directors. Nevertheless, every effort has been made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board of Directors or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. We believe that we are responsive to stockholder communications, and therefore have not considered it necessary to adopt a formal process for stockholder communications with our Board. During the upcoming year, our Board will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt such a process.
