PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Corporate History

US Highland, Inc. ("US Highland" or the "Company") was originally formed as a limited liability company on February 5, 1999 under the name "The Powerhouse, L.L.C." in the state of Oklahoma. On February 26, 1999, an amendment was filed that changed the name of the entity to Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C.

On November 9, 2006, Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. filed Articles of Conversion, changing the entity from a limited liability company to a C-corporation under the name "US Highland, Inc." On November 29, 2006, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation thereby increasing the authorized shares of common stock to 100,000,000 with a par value of $0.01 per share.

On January 25, 2010, Articles of Merger were filed with the state of Oklahoma, merging U.S. Highland, Inc. into Harcom Productions, Inc. Pursuant to the Articles of Merger, the name of the corporation was changed from Harcom Productions, Inc. to US Highland, Inc. (the "Merger"). Pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated December 21, 2009, with Shane Harwell, the Company sold all rights, title and interest to the purchased assets to Mr. Harwell for the consideration of 950,000 shares of Common Stock.

Description of New Business Strategy

After the Merger, the Company solely focused on the business of being a recreational powersports Original Equipment Manufacturer ("OEM"). In September 2015, the Company redefined its business model to be one of a diversified holdings Company. The Company will seek investments in acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic partnerships that will development new holdings and business lines that take advantage of management's ability to sell, market, and distribute products. The Company has realigned its mission statement to include providing companies and emerging brands with the knowledge and expertise needed to launch their products in the United States marketplace.

As part of the Company's new strategy to diversify its operations by engaging in new business lines to assist companies and emerging brands launch their products in the U.S., on September 23, 2015, the Company formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, USH Distribution Corp., a Nevada corporation ("USH"), and Powersports Brands Alliance, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("PBA") The Company formed USH to provide sales, marketing and distribution services primarily to international and domestic companies seeking sales of their products in the U.S.; and PBA to acquire brands in the powersports industry with the intended goal of being a business that sells powersports products, including, but not limited to, powersports parts and accessories, such as helmets, gloves, gear, etc.

The Company's new business strategy consists of the following divisions:

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.

Joint Venture Agreement with M&M Sourcing

On September 25, 2015, USH entered into a Joint Venture Agreement, dated September 25, 2015 (the "JV Agreement"), with M&M Sourcing Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian entity ("M&M"). Pursuant to the JV Agreement, USH and M&M jointly formed Lahva, Inc., a Nevada corporation on September 23, 2015 ("Lahva"), for the purposes of acting as the U.S. based representative of M&M to provide apparel sourcing services to U.S. based brands and retailers, develop in-house apparel brands and invest in and develop non in-house apparel brands (the "Joint Venture").

The following is a summary of the JV Agreement:

Consignment Agreement with Rhino Workwear USA, Ltd.

On September 28, 2015, the Company, though USH, entered into that certain Consignment Agreement, dated September 28, 2015 (the "Consignment Agreement"), between USH and Rhino Workwear USA, Ltd. ("Rhino"), a Nevada corporation engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, marketing and distributing workwear apparel and other accessories for the workwear industry ("Products").

The following is a summary of the Consignment Agreement:

Market Analysis

Apparel Industry

According to the most recent data issued by the US Department of Commerce - Office of Textiles and Apparel http://otexa.trade.gov/ ("OTEXA") on December 31, 2015, US imports of apparel continued to climb in 2015, reaching almost $84.9 billion (year-end Nov. 2015) for an increase of 3.97% over the previous year. 

As the OTEXA data reflects, the growth of apparel imports into the US is being driven by the lower cost and quality improvements of offshore manufacturing, a relatively strong US dollar, and recent weakness in the Chinese yuan. According to OTEXA, shipments from China, the largest supplier of apparel to the US, were up 1.98% in the last year to $30.44 billion (35.86% of total US apparel imports). Other major manufacturers and exporters of apparel to the US are Vietnam (12.34%), Bangladesh (6.3%), Indonesia (5.78%), India (4.3%), and Mexico (4.24%).

US Highland believes it is well-positioned to take advantage of this growth trend in apparel and other imports that it expects to create numerous new business opportunities for the Company and its joint venture, Lahva, Inc., as it believes in an ongoing trend of many US companies choosing to partner with sourcing specialists to cost effectively manage their production in low-cost foreign manufacturing centers. Sourcing specialists breakdown cultural and geographic barriers between US apparel firms and international factories, providing a competitive advantage to U.S. apparel firms by reducing production cost and facilitating production of simple to complex designs.

Lahva, Inc., 40% owned by US Highland, is a sourcing joint-venture with M&M Sourcing Sdn Bhd, an established Malaysian apparel sourcing consortium. Lahva provides customers with end-to-end sourcing of the apparel supply chain. This strategy includes overseeing the entire process, including design, raw material acquisition, garment construction, packaging, shipping, distribution/warehousing, delivery to retail, and consumer purchase. Lahva also utilizes its resources to incubate and support emerging apparel brands.

Powersports Industry

Market data for the motorcycle industry shows that the industry is growing in most global market segments, with Europe showing flat sales, illustrating generally positive expected performance of the powersports industry for the next 5+ years. It is important to note that 45% for on-road motorcycles, 45% for ATV plus 10% for off-road motorcycles show a good balance within the powersports industry. Honda, Harley Davidson and Polaris Industries are the largest OEMs for many global markets. Estimated new unit sales for the U.S. powersport market is 1.4mm units annually.[1] US Highland management believes the metric parts and accessory sales volume to be approximately $3.6B annually. US Highland has chosen the U.S. market as its primary target and domicile market.

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) Cycle

The OEM motorcycle market is a cyclical business, with the largest sales occurring during late summer and fall for next year's models. Time to market for new products can be 8-14 months before final units are produced, tested and capable of delivery to the public. Finished goods can remain selling for 5+ years, before model changes are needed.

On-Road Motorcycles Market

Comparisons between the dirt bike sales forecast and the total motorcycle sales forecast illustrates that on-road or street motorcycles represent a much larger market segment, by a ratio of 4.5:1. Harley Davidson continues to have the largest market share of this market segment.[2]

On-Road Seasonality

On-road seasonality is even more severe than off-road seasonality. In the on-road market segment, summer month sales are the strongest, though spring sales are within 20-30% of summer sales. Winter sales are as much as 75% lower than summer sales.

Dual Sport Market

2012 data indicates this segment as the fastest growing segment, with the largest gains. US Highland engines are dual purpose ready.

Wholesale/Custom Builder Market

With the growing and positive movement in product customization, US Highland management estimates that more "NEW" powersport manufactures will be entering the market than ever before. Currently no other US supplier offers 250cc-1150cc metric engines available for sale. US Highland management believes that by comparison the V-Twin market is offering products sold specifically for the On-Road market, the estimated market size for the V-Twin parts and accessory market is $1.6B annually. US Highland will fully capitalize on this market opportunity and offer metric engines for the use in any type of powersport product representing 4 times the available sales of the V-Twin market.

Intellectual Property

US Highland owns the intellectual property corresponding to the 350cc, 450cc, 507cc, 750cc, 950cc engines and was granted limited intellectual property rights to an 1150cc engine by Folan AB. The 1150cc is limited to the right to modify, manufacture and sell the 1150cc engine into the flat bottom boat market exclusively in the United States. US Highland has also developed a unique throttle body which allows "linear proportional air flow" control to the engine. Conventional throttle bodies do not have linear response, requiring operators to manually adjust to uneven response from the throttle. US Highland owns US Registered Trademark "HIGHLAND", which is the subject of U. S. Trademark Registration No. 2,362,734 which was issued on June 27, 2000. US Highland has also applied on December 20, 2011 for two additional US Registered Trademarks, "POWERED BY US HIGHLAND" on December 19, 2011 and "AMERICAN MADE PERFORMANCE". Currently, US Highland is no longer seeking trademark registration for "POWERED BY US HIGHLAND" and "AMERICAN MADE PERFORMANCE".

Number Of Total Employees And Number Of Full-Time Employees.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report, including statements regarding the anticipated development and expansion of our business, our intent, belief or current expectations, primarily with respect to our future operating performance and other statements contained herein regarding matters that are not historical facts, are "forward-looking" statements. Future filings with the SEC, future press releases and future oral or written statements made by us or with our approval, which are not statements of historical fact, may contain forward-looking statements, because such statements include risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they are made. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Overview

The Company is a recreational powersports original equipment manufacturer ("OEM"), which develops motorcycles, quads, single cylinder engines, and v-twin engines under its own brand and for other OEMs.

Results of Operations The fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 Revenues

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company had no revenues, as compared to $10,930 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $513,767, which was comprised primarily of $297,352 for general and administrative expenses and $210,835 for professional expenses as compared to operating expenses of $1,137,482 for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was comprised primarily of $756,902 for general and administrative expenses, and $371,170 for professional expenses and consulting expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $459,550 resulted primarily from an decrease in the number of employees during the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2014. This general reduction of office expenses is a result of budget constraints. The decrease in professional fees of $160,335 resulted primarily from the Company reducing the number of professionals utilized during the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2014.

Net Income/Loss

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $15,066,472, compared to net loss of $17,908,057 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The income in fiscal 2015 includes $14,603,888 gain on change in fair value of derivatives and gain on settlement of debt of $1,988,114, offset by $1,011,790 in interest expense. The loss in fiscal 2014 includes $1,666,381 in interest expense and $16,442,992 loss on change in fair value of derivatives, offset by a gain on settlement of debt of $1,451,919.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2015, we had cash of $13,563 and a working capital deficit of $18,317,140. 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. We estimated that we will require $2,188,000 over the next twelve-month period. 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 year ended December 31, 2015, we used $401,189 in cash in operating activities. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we used $764,929 in cash in operating activities. We received proceeds of $396,200 from the issuance of notes payable and convertible debt for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $917,300 for the year ended December 31, 2014. We made cash repayments of $21,700 for notes payable for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $37,300 for the year ended December 31, 2014. We paid out $150,000 to Highlon, a company in the distribution management business for the deposit for a potential acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2014. We received proceeds of $217 from the exercise of warrants during year ended December 31, 2015.

As of December 31, 2015, 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 recurring losses from operations as of December 31, 2015. In addition, at December 31, 2015, there was an accumulated deficit of $88,045,554. 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. 

There is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, its independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the consolidated financial statements regarding concerns about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's consolidated financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to the auditor's opinion. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company's development, marketing and manufacturing efforts.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 The following table summarizes the sources and uses of cash for the periods stated. The Company held no cash equivalents for any of the periods presented.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our liquidity is not dependent on the use of off-balance sheet financing arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a) (4) (ii) of Regulation S-K) and as of December 31, 2015, we had no such arrangements. There has been no material change in our contractual obligations other than in the ordinary course of business since the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Recent Pronouncements

Management does not anticipate that the new accounting pronouncements listed above will have a material impact on the financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a "smaller reporting company," as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this item of Form 10-K.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

US Highland, Inc. 

Index to the Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and  

Stockholders of US Highland, Inc.
Tulsa, Oklahoma

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of US Highland, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. US Highland, 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of US Highland, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that US Highland, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, US Highland, Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a working 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 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a)        Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company's 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 subsidiaries, US Highlands Electric Inc., USH Distribution Corp., and Powersports Brand Alliance, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

b)       Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, deferred income tax asset valuations, fair values of financial instruments and loss contingencies. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

c)        Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financialstatement presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net loss.

d)       Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

e)        Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, utilizing the specific lot identification method. Inventory consists of goods and parts for resale.

f)        Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired as follows:

g)       Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by US generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and.

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, loan receivable, accounts payable, loans payable and convertible debentures. Derivative liabilities are determined based on "Level 3" inputs, which are significant and unobservable and have the lowest priority. There were no transfers into or out of "Level 3" during the years ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial statement. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. See Note 7 for additional information.

h)       Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized in income or expense in the period that the change is effective. Tax benefits are recognized when it is probable that the deduction will be sustained. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely that not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. No such interest or penalties were recognized during the period presented. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2015, or 2014.

i)         Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue using the four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

j)         Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Such costs totaled approximately $11,000 and $6 for 2015, and 2014, respectively.

k)       Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

l)         Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per Common share is calculated by dividing net profit attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the year. The calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and other stock-based compensation, which are included in diluted earnings per share. When a company is in a loss situation, all outstanding dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings because their inclusion would be antidilutive; and the basic and fully diluted common shares outstanding are stated to be the same.At December 31, 2015, and 2014, approximately 50,986,000 and 91,852,000 shares, respectively, underlying the convertible debentures and warrants were antidilutive.

m)      Concentration of Business and Credit risk

The Company maintains cash balances in several financial institutions which currently are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Balances in these accounts may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company provides credit in the normal course of business to customers and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. There Company had sales of $10,930 to one customer during the year ended December 31, 2014 and no sales during the year ending December 31, 2015.

n)       Subsequent Events

The Company's management reviewed all material events through the issuance date of this report for disclosure purpose.

o)       Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its consolidated 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.
