Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.         Summary of Business and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Business

US Highland, Inc. was originally formed as a Limited Liability Company on February 5, 1999 under the name The Powerhouse, L.L.C. pursuant to the laws of the State of Oklahoma.  On November 9, 2006, Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. filed Articles of Conversion changing the entity from a limited liability company to a corporation under the name Harcom Productions, Inc.  On January 25, 2010, Articles of Merger were filed with the state of Oklahoma merging U.S. Highland, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation into Harcom Productions, Inc. and the name of the corporation was changed to US Highland, Inc. US Highland, Inc. (the “Company”) is a recreational power sports Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”), developing motorcycles, quads, single cylinder engines, and v-twin engines under its own brand and for other OEMs.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, US Highlands Electric Inc.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such principles and the financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10K filed on March 10, 2014 (the “2012 Annual Report”).

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2012 Annual Report.

Going concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going-concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations, and as of June 30, 2013, current liabilities exceed current assets by $2,164,399, and the Company has an accumulated deficit of $56,980,136. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain adequate funding to support its operations through continuing investments of debt and/or equity by qualified investors/creditors, and internally generated working capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

2.     Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consists of the following:

Depreciation expense amounted to approximately $5,122 and $2,270 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

3.     Loans Payable

 

4.     Convertible Debenture

Effective January 25, 2010, the Company issued a convertible note for $225,000. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the loan is unsecured, non-interest bearing, and was due on December 21, 2010.  The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at a variable conversion price equal to 65% of the average of the closing bid prices of the common stock during the 28 trading days prior to the date of the conversion notice and is subject to adjustment upon the issuance of certain dilutive instruments.  Due to these provisions, the embedded conversion option qualifies for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging. The initial fair value of the derivative liability of $538,249 resulted in a full discount to the note payable of $225,000 and the recognition of a loss on derivatives of $313,249.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the carrying value of the convertible note had been fully accreted over the term up to the face value of the convertible note.

On June 2, 2010, the Company issued 6,386 restricted shares of common stock upon the conversion of the principal amount of $166,667. The fair value of the derivative liability at June 2, 2010, was $266,425 and $197,352 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon conversion. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repaid $500 of the note.  At June 30, 2013, the carrying value of the note is $57,833 (December 31, 2012 - $58,333). The Company did not repay the remaining outstanding principal on the maturity date. The note is in default at June 30, 2013.

5.     Derivative Liabilities

The embedded conversion option of the Company convertible debenture described in Note 4 contains a conversion feature that qualifies for embedded derivative classification.  The warrants described in Note 7 also qualify for derivative classification.  The fair value of these liabilities will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value will be reported in the statement of operations included in other income or expenses.

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

 

The following table summarizes the change in fair value of derivatives:

 

 

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities and embedded conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on various assumptions.   The model incorporates the price of a share of the Company’s common stock (as quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board), volatility, risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life. Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table shows the assumptions used in the calculations:

 

6.     Common Stock

Share transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2013:

a)        On February 15, 2013, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common upon the exercise of a warrant at $0.0005 per share described in Note 8(f) for cash proceeds of $2,500. 

b)       On March 13, 2013, the Company issued 4,500,000 shares of common stock in consideration for cash at $0.05 per share to a shareholder. This transaction resulted in the shareholder becoming a significant shareholder.

c)        On March 18, 2013, a director of the Company converted $21,000 of amounts owed to him by the Company into 420,000 shares of common stock. The amount owed had no terms of repayment and was non-interest bearing.

7.     Stock Purchase Warrants

 

a)        On January 23, 2013, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 common shares at $0.0005 per share exercisable for three years pursuant to the management securities agreement described in Note 8(f). The Company recorded the fair value of the warrant of $2,599,801 as consulting expenses. On February 15, 2013 the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares upon the exercise of the warrant. Upon the exercise of the warrant the Company reclassified the fair value of the warrant of $3,249,778 to additional paid in capital. During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $649,977 prior to the exercise of the warrant.

b)     On April 1, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a consultant to settle $149,971 of services provided in 2012. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will pay $10,000 and issue a warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at $0.0005 per share exercisable for three years. The warrant meets the criteria for classification as a derivative liability and during the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $42,009.

c)     On April 8, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a consultant to settle $149,971 of services provided in 2012.  Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will pay $10,000 and issue a warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at $0.0005 per share exercisable for three years. The warrant meets the criteria for classification as a derivative liability and during the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $42,008.

A summary of the changes in the Company’s common share purchase warrants is presented below:

You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these similar terms. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash, which are explained below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under the applicable federal securities laws.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $98,059 resulted primarily from a reduction in travel expenses from $32,560 in fiscal 2012 to $3,864 in fiscal 2013, and a reduction in payroll from $118,310 in fiscal 2012 to $87,314 in fiscal 2013.  The decrease in professional fees of $276,668 resulted primarily from the Company reducing the number of consultants utilized during the three month period ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2012.

The increase in professional fees of $2,429,783 resulted primarily from the issuance of a warrant to a consultant to purchase common shares, which was recorded at a fair value of $2,599,801 offset by a general reduction in other professional fees of $483,668. The Company did not issue any warrants during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company recognized a gain on settlement of debt of $4,144,559 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company did not settle any debt during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2013, we had cash of $1,550 and a working capital deficiency of $2,164,399. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain future financing, upon cash generated from our operations and our ability to borrow cash when needed from related parties.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received $860,000 of proceeds for the issuance convertible notes.  We estimate that we will require $2,188,000 over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2014. Management believes that our cash balance will not be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the next twelve month period. We plan to raise the capital required to satisfy our immediate short-term needs and additional capital required to meet our estimated funding requirement for the next twelve months primarily through equity and or debt financings. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued working capital requirements. 

We cannot be certain that the required additional financing will be available or available on terms favorable to us. We currently do not have any arrangements or commitments in place for any other financings. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of our securities, existing stockholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund our operations.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, we used $298,873 in cash in operating activities and did not use any cash for investing activities.  This compares to the six month period ended June 30, 2012 when we used $1,285,731 in cash in operating activities and paid $32,171 to acquire property and equipment. We received proceeds of $61,925 from the issuance of loans payable and $228,500 from the issue of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2013. This compares to the six month period ended June 30, 2012 when we received $1,275,000 from the issuance of convertible debt. We made cash repayments of $500 for notes payable during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to $5,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

As of June 30, 2013 we did not have any established lines of credit with any banks or any other arrangements, agreements, or commitments for financing our operations.

Going Concern

The Company has no revenues and has incurred a net loss of approximately $3,883,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. In addition, at June 30, 2013, there is an accumulated deficit of $56,980,136.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or available from external sources such as debt or equity financings, or other potential sources. The inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources will force the Company to substantially curtail and cease operations, therefore, having a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any funds, if available, will possess attractive terms or not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders. 

Off-balance sheet arrangements: 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of June 30, 2013, in ensuring that material information that we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

The Company had not filed its quarterly reports or any annual reports with the SEC since the fourth quarter of 2012.  Management intends to implement internal controls to ensure that similar situations do not occur in the future and that required SEC filings will be timely. Management has retained the services of a new accounting firm, as well as an auditing firm specializing in public companies and a strong reputation in the auditing community. We have also hired a highly qualified financial consultant with extensive experience with public companies in the manufacturing industry. This newly implemented three tier process ties the Company’s bookkeeping activities with a full service accounting firm that handles all financial reporting activities and the Company’s interface with the selected auditing firm.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting: 

During the quarter covered by this report there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
  

The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
