Item 1. Business
Business Development
TouchIT Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada as “Hotel Management Systems, Inc.” (“HMSI”) in 2008. After HMSI's fiscal year end of April 30, 2010, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated May 7, 2010 (“Share Exchange”) with TouchIT Technologies Koll Sti (“TouchIT Tech KS”), the stockholders of TouchIT Tech KS, TouchIT Education Koll Sti (“TouchIT Ed”), and the stockholders of TouchIT Ed whereby HMSI effectively ceased doing business as HMSI. Both TouchIT Tech KS and TouchIT Ed are corporations formed under the laws of Turkey and are based in Istanbul, Turkey. The closing of the transaction (the “Closing”) took place on May 7, 2010 (the “Closing Date”).
In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, on May 7, 2010, we entered into various subscription agreements (each “Subscription Agreement,” and collectively the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors for the sale of up to $1,500,000 of principal amount convertible promissory notes issued by our Company (“Note” or “Notes”) and share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) to each subscriber to purchase shares of our Common Stock.
In connection with a breach of two promissory notes associated with the Share Exchange, we cancelled the Warrants related to those promissory notes.
In connection with the Share Exchange, we changed our fiscal year end from April 30 to December 31 and amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to TouchIT Technologies, Inc. This report shall cover the period of January 1 to December 31, 2010 and the description of the business and financial information provided herein will be the business and financials of TouchIT Technologies, Inc. and not HMSI, as the business was prior to the Share Exchange.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, as used herein the terms, the “Company”, “Registrant”, “we”, “our” and “us” refer to TouchIT Technologies, Inc.
Overview
We design, produce via third party and market touch-based visual communication products. Our mission – the design and manufacture of high quality technology products under the TouchIT Technologies™ brand name. We manufacture a large range of touch screen and touch board products to suit all types of application from small interactive whiteboard displays to large liquid crystal display (“LCD”) touch-screens and Light Emitting Diode (“LED”) displays. To date, our revenues have come primarily from the sale of our Interactive Whiteboard products which we began shipping in 2009 to the worldwide market place. Most of our sales have been of the 78" TouchIT Board and original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) equivalents that are suitable for use with almost any computer and data projector. However, we are seeing a shift in the marketplace and expect the sales of our LCD and LED products to overtake that of the Interactive Whiteboards as time progresses.
We plan to capitalize on the corporate vertical for boardroom and meeting room applications and also in the education market as there are an estimation of over a billion classrooms in the world that may develop a need for our products. In response to increased demand for interactive LCD displays, we have invested resources to expand our product line to include touch-based LCD/LEDs in 32”, 42", 46”, 55”, 65", 70”, 80” & 82”. We undertake OEM and original design manufacturer (“ODM”) work for partners all over the world with 3rd party contract manufacturing facilities in Taiwan & China.
How We Generate Revenue
We generate revenue from the sales of goods under the TouchIT Technologies brand name manufactured through 3rd party OEM contract manufacturers in China and Taiwan.
4
We also generate revenue from OEM manufacture facilities. This is where we take our existing products and rebrand them for a third party with differing degrees of customization.
Lastly, we generate revenue by charging for product design work where our team designs a new product for a customer that incorporates our technology. There is then repeat sales from this model as the customer engages the company to build its products.
Products or Services and their Markets
We offer a range of products that are designed for the education and the corporate government vertical markets.
TouchIT Interactive Whiteboard
TouchIT Board™ works in conjunction with a data projector and a computer to create a touch-based interactive whiteboard where the user obtains full control of a computer from the board. The TouchIT Board™ functions similar to a mouse allowing both left and right click functionality at the board. The TouchIT Board is supplied with Wizteach annotation software. The Wizteach annotation software is a 3rd party software that we purchase from Quizdom Uk Ltd based in Northern Ireland.
TouchIT LCD & LED Duo
The TouchIT LCD & LED range of products combine a HD display with IR or Camera Tracking multi-touch technology to create an integrated, large format touch screen finished with a 4mm or 5mm tempered glass for screen protection. The TouchIT LCD & LED range has a very small parallax enabling a much improved user experience when compared to traditional overlay products.
TouchIT Tablet
TouchIT Tablet™ is a Radio Frequency (RF) wireless tablet that enables the user to control his/her computer from a distance with the tablet acting like a mouse.
TouchIT WebCast
TouchIT WebCast is a media presentation system that allows you to stream your synchronized multimedia and video presentations over the Internet from a single location, a lecture theater or boardroom for example. You can then make the presentations available to multiple viewers on cross platform devices either live or on demand anywhere in the world, all accessible from a regular internet browser.
Distribution Methods of the Products or Services
We currently maintain various distribution channels for our products in countries throughout the world. We would normally select a master distributor for a particular country where its specialty would be either the Information Technology (“IT”) Education or Audio Visual (“AV”) verticals. These master distributors usually sell on a trade-only basis to reselling companies that, in turn, supply the end user.
Status of New Product or Service
We are currently evaluating new touch technologies such as charge-couple device (“CCD”) image sensors that could be a more cost effective alternative in the future to IR. We are also evaluating new panel manufacturers for the LCD & LED range of products. There has been the appearance of a number of new panel manufacturers in China. This will have the benefit of increased competition so will drive down our raw material costs. Our business strategy is to grow all three main areas of the business in tandem with the overall pursuit and development of new touch-based interactive products.

TouchIT WIS was launched late 2012 and represents the link between cell phones, android and IOS tablets and a large format LED display. The TouchIT WIS allows control of the computer from the LED or indeed from any of the aforementioned devices. Across the world there are BYOD (Bring your Own Device) initiatives in place and Management have seen an increase in the demand for users wanting to combine the use of their cell phone or tablet devices with the LED – TouchIT WIS allows for just that. Management believes that TouchIT WIS is also the world’s first interactive LED to have an embedded access point to connect to cell phones and tablet devices without the need of any third party equipment. There are applications (Apps) on the market that demonstrate similar functionality, but they all rely on third party hardware. Management see that the competitive advantage in the marketplace for TouchIT WIS is that it is totally self-contained. Management expects the demand for TouchIT WIS to continue to grow throughout 2013.
TouchIT WebCast was introduced to the market late in 2012. The idea of this product is to bring together our existing presentation equipment, the IWBs, LCDs and LEDs that allow presenters or teachers to give a visual presentation to a class or an audience. With the addition of TouchIT WebCast, one can now broadcast live or on demand, these same presentations over the Internet. Furthermore, these presentations can then be saved onto the TouchIT Portal and archived for later viewing. All of this can take place with just a few simple clicks of the mouse. Management’s idea with this product is that the world of higher education is changing and that the traditional lecture will cease to be in operation. The benefit of having 200+ students in a lecture theatre listening to a lecturer is debatable. The real value is the smaller tutorial classes where the lecturer can debate the lecture with a smaller more involved group of students. Therefore, with TouchIT WebCast, the lecturer can record or broadcast live the lecture and the students can watch from the comfort of their own home. We see the pre-requisite to the tutorial being that the student has watched the lecture in someway shape or form, whether it be live on the internet or indeed on demand. This is a trend of “distance learning” that is becoming more prevalent in certain markets around the world. This chain of thought can also be applied to the corporate world where travel is increasingly expensive and having groups of executives in the same room for extended periods of training or presentations is costly to a business. TouchIT WebCast removes the need to do this and takes these presentations and training sessions onto the web.
With the addition of these two new products, the Company is positioning itself for more of a “solution sales strategy” rather than a “box-sell sales strategy” for 2013.
In 2013;
First, we hope to increase the growth of sales of our Company’s branded products through distribution partners on a worldwide basis. This involves the recruitment, training and support of the distribution partner and its resellers.
Second, we aim to grow the OEM side of the business. This involves the recruitment, product customization and rebranding, technical support and training of new OEM partners on a worldwide basis.
Third, we aim to work with a wider selection of ODM partners that recruit our services for the design and manufacture of new products under the client’s own brand name.
Fourth, the company is evaluating the addition of a 7-10” Android Tablet device to its product portfolio, which could be sold into its existing retail channels of the desired price point can be met. Initial prototypes have been procured and initial discussions have taken place with customers such as OfficeMax and Ingram Micro.
Fifth, we have added two extra Interactive Whiteboard models to the range to address markets that are particularly price sensitive where we are uncompetitive with the existing TouchIT Board. These are low-cost products and designed for the volume tender business. The TouchIT Board Lite is a touch-based CCD Camera technology product, and the TouchIT EM Board is an electromagnetic board that required a pen input. Management believes that these products will address the price gap the Company currently faces against Far Eastern competition in price sensitive tenders around the world.
Sixth, we will continue to increase the size of our demonstration fleet of equipment that is currently being made available to our USA-based customers to use for their demonstrations to end-users. This facility has been particularly well used by OfficeMax amongst others.

Business Organization
We manage our business on a central basis with all customers being supplied either directly from the third part manufacturing facilities in China and Taiwan, or from our warehouse located in Troy, MI USA.
Markets & Trends In Our Business
Information from FutureSource Consulting Uk ltd.
One Million Interactive Whiteboards and Flat Panel Displays Sales in 2012, Up 15%.
For calendar year 2012, sales of interactive whiteboards and interactive flat panel displays in the education and corporate sectors are up 15% annually, to nearly 1 million displays. The following information provides key highlights from the market report.
The Global Perspective. The total market of display technologies of Interactive whiteboards, Interactive flat panels and Interactive projectors is forecast to reach 1.16 million devices by 2017. However, the adoption rates of the three products are very different by country and even by region. Futuresource has compared all three technologies in eight regions / countries.
Asia: Best Ever Year for Sales. Asia has, by far, achieved its largest ever quarter, with 69% annual growth. China, for the first year the biggest country market in the world, attained a significant sales volume. Futuresource expectations are that the huge education tenders will continue. India also experienced a substantial quarter, with more than 100% increase in the year.
EMEA: Strong Growth.
EMEA experienced its largest annual of sales, achieving 24% annual growth. Sales in Russia were huge almost doubling their 2011 levels.
UK: First Growth in Seven Years.
The UK, ended up with an annual growth of 7%, this is significant as it was after six years of decline, from the peak in 2005. Interactive flat panel displays are starting to take market share from interactive whiteboards and some of the first replacement boards are being purchased, with schools tending to buy the same brands again. Although the BSF (Building Schools for the Future) programme was abandoned there is still significant new school construction due to the rise of academies, as well as substantial rebuilding programmes within existing schools.
The scale of the opportunity in the corporate space is colossal, with over 67 million meeting rooms worldwide - this segment of the corporate market alone is twice the scale of school classrooms. However, there is currently no adoption of any specific product, so the market is open to be taken.
The corporate market is forecast to be the fastest growing sector, increasing to 30% by 2017. This growth will be in the more developed markets like the USA, UK, Germany and Sweden.
Competition
We echo the sentiments of Futuresource and feel that our competitors, the Chinese brands that are selling outside of China and India, are a reducing threat in the developed EMEA and U.S. markets. They are making little headway because while their products are on the low-cost end of the spectrum, they are not engaged in important deals and transactions, and are only getting peripheral businesses in the industry. Furthermore, the Chinese brands are also pushing their way into developing markets such as South America and Africa; however, these developing markets offer very little opportunities for the visual communication companies.
While the examples provided above do not appear to place our Company in a competitive business situation, there are also exceptions to the Chinese brands. For instance, Julong Educational Technology Co., Ltd, which is an OEM, has a large U.S. operation and has successfully worked its way into the U.S. market.
7
Our greatest competitor is probably Interactive Projectors. We are aware that they have already obtained some contracts in preference to IWBs (Finland, Estonia, Russia). In some countries, Interactive Flat panels are also emerging.
Despite the competition we face, our Company is in a strong position to capitalize on emergence of Interactive Flat Panels with the new LCD & LED range. The Competition does not have the range of models and sizes that we are able to offer our competitors, which puts the Company in strong position.
Supply of Components
Although most components essential to our Company’s business are generally available from multiple sources, certain key components including but not limited to aluminum, plastics, LCDs, certain optical infrared technology (“IR”), and integrated circuits (“ICs”) are currently obtained by our Company from single or limited sources, which subjects us to significant supply and pricing risks.
Many of these and other key components that are available from multiple sources are subject at times to industry-wide shortages and significant commodity pricing fluctuations. In addition, we have entered into certain agreements for the supply of key components, including, but not limited to aluminum, plastics, LCDs, certain optical IR technology, and ICs at favorable pricing. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to extend or renew these agreements on similar favorable terms, or at all, upon expiration or otherwise obtain favorable pricing in the future. Therefore, we remain subject to significant risks of supply shortages and/or price increases that can materially adversely affect its financial condition and operating results.
All our products, including the printed circuit boards (“PCBs”) are assembled or are manufactured by outsourcing partners, primarily in various parts of Asia. The loss of supply from any of these suppliers or vendors, whether temporary or permanent, could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Dependence on one or a few major customers
We recognize that we have a reliance on a few major customers. Most notably, Ingram Micro PTY in the Australia. We do however, expect to increase our customer base in line with our sales plan, strategy and forecast, most notably in the United States of America through key partners such as OfficeMax.
Patents and Trademark Licenses
We do not hold any granted patents or trademarks for our technology. We recognize this does pose a risk to the business in that our products could potentially be copied by third parties.
Environmental Laws
As a third party manufacturer of visual communication products, we have not incurred or have been subject to environmental laws and expenses.
Employees
During the year, we had an average of 5 employees over the 12 month period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Risks Relating to Our Business
WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY THAT YOU CAN USE TO EVALUATE US, AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF OUR SUCCESS MUST BE CONSIDERED IN LIGHT OF THE PROBLEMS, EXPENSES, DIFFICULTIES, COMPLICATIONS AND DELAYS FREQUENTLY ENCOUNTERED BY A SMALL DEVELOPING COMPANY.
We were incorporated in Nevada in April 2008, under HMSI. Following the transactions described herein, we are now a manufacturer of touch based communication products for the education and corporate marketplaces. As such, we have a limited operating history, and historical operating results may not provide a meaningful basis for evaluating the business, financial performance and prospects. We have limited assets or financial resources and/or limited operating history. Therefore, the likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered by a small developing company starting a new business enterprise and the highly competitive environment in which we will operate.
WE NEED TO MANAGE GROWTH IN OPERATIONS TO MAXIMIZE OUR POTENTIAL GROWTH AND ACHIEVE OUR EXPECTED REVENUES AND OUR FAILURE TO MANAGE GROWTH WILL CAUSE A DISRUPTION OF OUR OPERATIONS RESULTING IN THE FAILURE TO GENERATE REVENUE.
In order to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe that we must expand our marketing operations. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial controls, operating procedures, and management information systems. We will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our failure to manage our growth will disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent us from generating the revenues we expect.
In order to achieve the above mentioned targets, our general strategy is to maintain and search for hard-working employees who have innovative initiatives; on the other hand, we will also keep a close eye on expanding opportunities.
IF WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO FUND OUR GROWING OPERATIONS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT CAPITAL AND MAY BE FORCED TO LIMIT THE SCOPE OF OUR OPERATIONS.
If adequate additional financing is not available on favorable terms or we are unable to secure additional financing, we may not be able to undertake expansion, continue our marketing efforts and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available to us or financing on favorable terms.
In connection with our growth strategies, we may experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.
9
Even if we do find a source of additional capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are acceptable to us. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock. We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.
NEED FOR ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES.
The Company’s future success also depends upon its continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Expansion of our business and the management and operation of the Company will require additional managers and employees with industry experience, and the success of our Company will be highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain skilled management personnel and other employees. Competition for such personnel is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel.
Competition for skilled personnel in our industry is significant. This competition may make it more difficult and expensive to attract, hire and retain qualified managers and employees. Our inability to attract skilled management personnel and other employees as needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Our arrangement with our current employees is at will, meaning its employees may voluntarily terminate their employment at any time. We anticipate that the use of stock options, restricted stock grants, stock appreciation rights, and phantom stock awards will be valuable in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. However, the effects of such plan cannot be certain.
OUR FUTURE SUCCESS IS DEPENDENT, IN PART, ON THE PERFORMANCE AND CONTINUED SERVICE OF OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM.
We are presently dependent to a great extent upon the experience, abilities and continued services of Andrew Brabin and Ronald Murphy, our management team. The loss of services of Mr. Brabin or Mr. Murphy, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation.
WE ARE IN AN INTENSELY COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO COMPETE WITH OUR COMPETITORS WHO MAY HAVE GREATER RESOURCES.
We could face strong competition from our competitors in the touch technology industry who could duplicate our model. These competitors may have substantially greater financial resources and marketing, development and other capabilities than we have. In addition, there are very few barriers to enter into the market for our products. There can be no assurance; therefore, that any of our competitors, many of whom have far greater resources will not independently develop products that are substantially equivalent or superior to our products. Therefore, an investment in our Company is very risky and speculative due to the competitive environment in which we intend to operate.
OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND EXPAND OUR PRODUCT OFFERINGS TO ADDRESS EMERGING CONSUMER DEMANDS AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRENDS WILL IMPACT OUR FUTURE GROWTH. IF WE ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN MEETING THESE BUSINESS CHALLENGES, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND CASH FLOWS WILL BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
Our ability to implement solutions for our customers incorporating new developments and improvements in technology which translate into productivity improvements for our customers and to develop product offerings that meet the current and prospective customers’ needs are critical to our success. The markets we serve are highly competitive. Our competitors may develop solutions or products which make our offerings obsolete. Our ability to develop and implement up to date solutions utilizing new technologies which meet evolving customer needs in touch technology solutions will impact our future revenue growth and earnings.
10
OUR FUTURE SUCCESS IS DEPENDENT UPON OUR ABILITY TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
We may not be able to protect unauthorized use of our intellectual property and take appropriate steps to enforce our rights. Although management does not believe that our products infringe on the intellectual rights of others, there is no assurance that we may not be the target of infringement or other claims. Such claims even if not true, could result in significant legal and other costs associated and may be a distraction to management. We plan to rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark laws and non-disclosure and other contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights. We use and intend to use the trademark “TouchIT Technologies” name and logo. We intend to file federal trademark applications for “TouchIT Technologies” and to secure the Internet trade domain “Touchittechnologies.com” and related logo. There can be no assurance that the registrations applied for will be accepted. Because the policing of intellectual and intangible rights may be difficult and the ideas and other aspects underlying our business model may not in all cases be protectable under intellectual property laws, there can be assurance that we can prevent competitors from marketing the same or similar products and services.
Risks Associated with Our Shares of Common Stock
BROAD DISCRETION OF MANAGEMENT TO USE OF PROCEEDS FROM FINANCING.
Our management will have broad discretion with respect to the expenditure of the net proceeds from the financing that closed in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement. Accordingly, Subscribers will be entrusting their funds to our management, upon whose judgment they must depend, with limited information concerning the specific working capital requirements and general corporate purposes to which the funds will be ultimately applied
THE SECURITIES BEING ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH AND FOLLOWING THE SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT ARE RESTRICTED SECURITIES AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF REGISTRATION OR THE AVAILABILITY OF A RESALE EXEMPTION.
The shares of Common Stock, Notes and Warrants being issued in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement and financing described herein are being issued in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Consequently, these securities will be subject to restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and may not be transferred in the absence of registration or the availability of a resale exemption. In particular, in the absence of registration, such securities cannot be resold to the public until certain requirements under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act have been satisfied, including certain holding period requirements. Furthermore, we are under no obligation to file a resale registration statement with respect to those securities except in connection with an unrelated secondary offering. As a result, a purchaser who receives any such securities issued in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement or the financing may be unable to sell such securities at the time, or at the price or upon such other terms and conditions, as the purchaser desires, and the terms of such sale may be less favorable to the purchaser than might be obtainable in the absence of such limitations and restrictions.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES; LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY.
Purchase of the Securities should be considered a long-term, illiquid investment. The Securities have not been registered under the Act, are being offered by reason of a specific exemption from registration and are “restricted securities” under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act, and cannot be sold without registration under the Act or any exemption from registration. In addition, the Securities will not be registered under any state securities laws that would permit their transfer. Because of these restrictions and the absence of a trading market for the Securities, a Subscriber will likely be unable to liquidate an investment even though other personal financial circumstances would dictate such liquidation.
OUR COMMON STOCK IS QUOTED ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD WHICH MAY HAVE AN UNFAVORABLE IMPACT ON OUR STOCK PRICE AND LIQUIDITY.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”). The OTC Bulletin Board is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq system. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Bulletin Board may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.
11
IF WE FAIL TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROL, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS ACCURATELY OR TO PREVENT FRAUD. ANY INABILITY TO REPORT AND FILE OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS ACCURATELY AND TIMELY COULD HARM OUR REPUTATION AND ADVERSELY IMPACT THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. As a result, our small size and any current internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if in the past un-discovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal control that need improvement.
OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE VERY THINLY TRADED, AND THE PRICE MAY NOT REFLECT OUR VALUE AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ACTIVE MARKET FOR OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK EITHER NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.
Our shares of common stock are very thinly traded, and the price if traded may not reflect our value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock either now or in the future. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of our operating business and any steps that our management might take to bring us to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. If a more active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our shares of common stock, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the shares of our common stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such shares of common stock as collateral for any loans.
THERE IS CURRENTLY NO LIQUID TRADING MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK AND WE CANNOT ENSURE THAT ONE WILL EVER DEVELOP OR BE SUSTAINED.
To date there has been no liquid trading market for our common stock. We cannot predict how liquid the market for our common stock might become. We anticipate having our common stock continue to be quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, however, we cannot be sure that such quotations will continue. We currently do not satisfy the initial listing standards, and cannot ensure that we will be able to satisfy such listing standards or that our common stock will be accepted for listing on any such exchange. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of such exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing and remain listed on the OTC Bulletin Board or suspended from the OTC Bulletin Board, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility.
Furthermore, for companies whose securities are traded in the OTC Bulletin Board, it is more difficult (1) to obtain accurate quotations, (2) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services generally do not publish press releases about such companies, and (3) to obtain needed capital.
In addition, the price at which our common stock may be sold is very unpredictable because there are very few trades in our common stock. Because our common stock is so thinly traded, a large block of shares traded can lead to a dramatic fluctuation in the share price.
12
OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE.
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
-
|
limited “public float” following the Share Exchange, in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;
|
-
|
sales of our common stock; and
|
-
|
our ability to execute our business plan.
|
Our shares of common stock are very thinly traded, and the price may not reflect our value and there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock either now or in the future. Our shares of common stock are very thinly traded, only a small percentage of our common stock is available to be traded and is held by a small number of holders and the price, if traded, may not reflect our actual or perceived value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock either now or in the future. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of our operating business, among other things. We will take certain steps including utilizing investor awareness campaigns, press releases, road shows and conferences to increase awareness of our business and any steps that we might take to bring us to the awareness of investors may require we compensate consultants with cash and/or stock. There can be no assurance that there will be any awareness generated or the results of any efforts will result in any impact on our trading volume. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business and trading may be at an inflated price relative to the performance of our company due to, among other things, availability of sellers of our shares. If a market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our shares of common stock, many brokerage firms or clearing firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities or accept our shares for deposit in an account. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the shares of our common stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of low priced shares of common stock as collateral for any loans.
WE CURRENTLY HAVE A LIMITED PUBLIC FLOAT HELD BY A LIMITED NUMBER OF PERSONS.
Of our 76,064,419 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, only 28,842,419 shares are presently eligible for resale without further registration by the holders thereof or pursuant to an exemption from registration. In addition, these 28,842,419 shares are presently held by a limited number of shareholders. As a result of the relatively small size of our public float and its initial concentration in the hands of only a few people, the liquidity of the market for our common stock may be both severely limited and subject to high levels of volatility.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
Not Applicable.
Item 2. Property.
We do not own any real property. We rent approximately 50 square meters (m2) of office space in suite 1400 at 101 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, MI.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Penny Stock
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
15
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.
Record Holders of Our Common Stock
As of December 30, 2012, there were over 500 stockholders of record of our common stock.
Dividends
There are no restrictions in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1. We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or;
2. Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.
We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
We are a “smaller reporting company” (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act) and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Plan of Operation – Executive Overview
We manufacture touch-based visual communication products for the education and corporate worldwide marketplaces specializing in Interactive Whiteboards and Interactive LCDs. Our products stand out from the competition in terms of their design, functionality and price offering. Our customers seek our products as they provide them a different point of entry to the market in terms of price, quality of design and margin. Currently, demand for our products is exceeding our ability to supply.
16
From market data, we understand that the market for our products will continue to grow for the next five years and possibly beyond.
Interactive Whiteboard World Wide Market Overview
Data compiled by Futuresource Consulting UK Ltd, Report, author - Colin Messenger
One Million Interactive Whiteboards and Flat Panel Displays Sales in 2012, Up 15%.
For calendar year 2012, sales of interactive whiteboards and interactive flat panel displays in the education and corporate sectors are up 15% annually, to nearly 1 million displays. The following information provides key highlights from the market report.
The Global Perspective. The total market of display technologies of Interactive whiteboards, Interactive flat panels and Interactive projectors is forecast to reach 1.16 million devices by 2017. However, the adoption rates of the three products are very different by country and even by region. Futuresource has compared all three technologies in eight regions / countries.
Asia: Best Ever Year for Sales. Asia has, by far, achieved its largest ever quarter, with 69% annual growth. China, for the first year the biggest country market in the world, attained a significant sales volume. Futuresource expectations are that the huge education tenders will continue. India also experienced a substantial quarter, with more than 100% increase in the year.
USA: Market Continues Falling. In the USA volumes fell to 27% below 2011, as previously forecast by Futuresource. The education market is expected to continue to drop over the next few years; almost half of K-12 classrooms will have an interactive display and the early models sold into the market are not yet ready for replacement.
EMEA: Strong Growth.
EMEA experienced its largest annual of sales, achieving 24% annual growth. Sales in Russia were huge almost doubling their 2011 levels.
UK: First Growth in Seven Years.
The UK, ended up with an annual growth of 7%, this is significant as it was after six years of decline, from the peak in 2005. Interactive flat panel displays are starting to take market share from interactive whiteboards and some of the first replacement boards are being purchased, with schools tending to buy the same brands again. Although the BSF (Building Schools for the Future) programme was abandoned there is still significant new school construction due to the rise of academies, as well as substantial rebuilding programmes within existing schools.
The scale of the opportunity in the corporate space is colossal, with over 67 million meeting rooms worldwide - this segment of the corporate market alone is twice the scale of school classrooms. However, there is currently no adoption of any specific product, so the market is open to be taken.
The corporate market is forecast to be the fastest growing sector, increasing to 30% by 2017. This growth will be in the more developed markets like the USA, UK, Germany and Sweden.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The accompanying financial statements include the financial statements of TouchIT Tech KS and TouchIT Ed. Although not significant, it should be noted that inter-company transactions and balances do exist and have not been consolidated. TouchIT Tech KS and TouchIT Ed together are referred to as the Company.
17
This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on the financial statements of both TouchIT Tech and TouchIT Ed, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we will evaluate these estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis:
Basis of presentation financial statements:
We maintain our books of account and prepare its statutory financial statements in accordance with accounting principles in the United Stats of America. The accompanying financial statements are based on the statutory records, with adjustments and reclassifications, for the purpose of fair presentation in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”).
There are inter-company transactions that have not been consolidated on these financial statements.
Revenue recognition:
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for customer returns, rebates, and other similar allowances.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs, including an appropriate portion of fixed and variable overhead expenses, are assigned to inventories held by the method most appropriate to the particular class of inventory being valued on the weighted average basis. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to deliver service.
Property, plant and equipment:
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and construction in progress, over their estimated useful lives, using straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each year-end, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets or, where shorter, the term of the relevant lease. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
The ranges of estimated useful lives are as follows:
-
|
Machinery and equipment 2-6 years
|
-
|
Motor vehicles 4 years
|
-
|
Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 4-5 years
|
18
Shipping and handling:
Shipping and handling costs related to costs of the raw material purchased is included in cost of revenues.
Research and development costs:
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of material and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities, and have alternative future uses, either in research and development, marketing, or sales, are classified as property and equipment or depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
Company reporting year-end:
Our company uses a calendar year as its fiscal year ending December 31.

Net Sales
Net sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 were $1,287,709, a decrease of approximately $308,234 compared to the net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in our revenues from 2011 to 2012 was due primarily to a market slow down for the Interactive Whiteboard products. Management anticipated this slow down and had already begun the transition to LCD & LED product line where the Company’s focus now lies. The positive side to the product transition is that the LCD & LED are larger ticket items and also more profitable items for the company which will help the bottom line.
Cost of Sales
The cost of sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 was $885,021 compared to a cost of $1,341,374, for the cost of sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in the cost of sales from 2011 to 2012 was due to the Management’s control on costs and focus on reducing overheads to turn the business round from being loss making to generating a profit in 2012. The percentage of cost of sales against NET sales has decreased by 15% year on year for the last two years. This is also due to Management’s focus on controlling costs.

Marketing and Selling Expenses
Marketing and selling expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 were a cost of $112,304 compared to a cost of $578,887 for the fiscal year ended December 31 2011. Marketing and selling expenses were down 58% from 2011 to 2012, which was primarily due to the aforementioned cost control of management. All unessential marketing spend was cut out of the budget for 2012
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 were a cost of $276,626, compared to a cost of $316,528 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. General and administrative expenses decreased by 12% or $39,902 from 2011 to 2011. This decrease can be attributed to the maintenance of fixed overheads without the need for further expenditure in this area. Management expects these costs to rise in 2013 as a result of increased sales and thus a need to support these sales from an administrative point of view

Operational Profit
The operational loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 was $13,758, compared to a loss of $640,847 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Operational profit has increased by $654,605 from 2011 to 2012. Management has focused on moving the company’s revenue to products that deliver profit such as the LCD & LED range. We have also focused our sales efforts in countries where higher prices thus higher margins are more acceptable. Despite a drop in revenue, profits have improved, as the monthly overhead cost remained the same.
Other Income and Expenses, net
Other Income and Expenses, net has decreased by $289,853 from $294,154 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 to $4,301 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease can be attributed to the closure of the Turkish Subsidiaries and a subsequent equity gain through the cancellation of debt that the subsidiaries owed to suppliers and related parties that occurred in 2011.
20
Total Comprehensive Income
Our total comprehensive income has increased by $364,751 from $346,692 loss in 2011 to a $18,059 profit in 2012. This increase can be attributed to the change in direction of sales revenue to products that deliver profit such as the LCD & LED range and the focus on geographic sales efforts in countries where higher prices thus higher margins are more acceptable. Management expects this trend to continue in 2013

Cash and Equivalents
Cash and equivalents have decreased by $63,876 from $70,289 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $6,413 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. We believe a lack of working capital has hindered our growth this year and we are currently evaluating new finance facilities that should be in place in early 2013 to improve our cash situation.
Trade Receivables
Trade receivables for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 were $64,170, compared to $240,867 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. Trade receivables have decreased by $176,697 from 2011 to 2012. This is the by-product of decreased revenues but also tighter control on credit in uncertain markets at present.

Inventories have increased from 2011 to 2012 by $55,772 or 100% reflecting our move to holding stock of the LCD & LED models for customers, notably in the USA, where we drop ship to the end user.

NET Income
Our NET Income has increased by $364,751 from $346,692 loss in 2011 to a $18,059 profit in 2012. This increase can be attributed to the change in direction of sales revenue to products that deliver profit such as the LCD & LED range and the focus on geographic sales efforts in countries where higher prices thus higher margins are more acceptable. Management expects this trend to continue in 2013

Our NET Income has increased by $364,751 from $346,692 loss in 2011 to a $18,059 profit in 2012.

Net Cash Generated from Operating Activities
For fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period in 2011, NET cash generated from operating activities was $(69,880) compared to $430,434 for the same period in 2011. This is a decrease of $500,314. This decrease was due to the closure of the Turkish Subsidiaries in 2011 and the subsequent cancellation of the debt that they owed to Recep Tanisman and Emko Emaye which appears in the accounts for 2011.
Cash Flow Used Investing Activities
For fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period in 2011, there was a NET cash flow decrease of $96,636 from $91,141 to $(5,495). This decrease was due to management controlling and thus reducing capital expenditure throughout 2011.
23
Cash Position
There was a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $63,876 for the beginning and the end of the period from $70,289 at the beginning of the period, to $6,413 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The company’s cash position remains poor but Management is currently seeking to improve this for 2013.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2012, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
See the financial statements annexed to this annual report.
Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
No events occurred requiring disclosure under Item 304(b) of Regulation S-K during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2012. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Andrew Brabin. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such controls.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and affected by our board of directors, management and other personnel.

●
|
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets,

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, during the past five years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against 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; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Audit Committee
We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee. The entire Board of Directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the Board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The Board approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and
Code of Ethics
As of December 31, 2012, we have adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Item 11. Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
We presently have employment agreements with all of our named executive officers and have established a system of executive compensation. Due to financial constraints typical of those faced by a company in this stage of its growth, we have not paid the officers in full for the year 2012. These costs reside in the related party transactions (as monies owed) of our financial statements. Our Company officers draw on these monies owed when we our in a position to pay them.
As our business and operations expand and mature, we expect to be able to pay our Company officers their monthly compensation in full.

As used in this table, "beneficial ownership" means the sole or shared power to vote, or to direct the voting of, a security, or the sole or shared investment power with respect to a security (i.e., the power to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, a security). In addition, for purposes of this table, a person is deemed, as of any date, to have "beneficial ownership" of any security that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date.
The persons named above have full voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated. Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a person (or group of persons) is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if he or she, directly or indirectly, has or shares the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. Accordingly, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security, which that person has the right to acquire within 60 days, such as options or warrants to purchase our common stock.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
None of the following parties has, since our date of incorporation, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us:
Any of our directors or officers;

Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a director;
|
Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding shares of common stock;

Independent Auditor's Report
March 22, 2012
Board of Directors
TouchIT Technologies, Inc.
101 West Beaver Road, Suite 1400
Troy, MI. 48084
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of TouchIT Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and the related statements of income, retained earnings, changes in stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material aspects, the statement of financial position of TouchIT Technologies as of December 31, 2012, and the statement of activities, changes in stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY:
|
General
The Company was established as a form of partnership. In Turkey, partnership is the association of two or people who co-own a business for trading goods under a trade name. The owners have unlimited responsibility to their creditors. This form of company does not have minimum capital requirements. On May 7, 2010, the company became TouchIT Technologies, Inc, a Nevada domiciled company in the United States of America by means of a reverse merge transaction detailed herewith.
Organization
TouchIT Education Technologies Dis Ticaret Killektik Sirketi Andrew Stuart Brabin ve Ortagi formerly RT Lojistik Dis Ticaret Recep Tanisman ve Ortagi (referred as “TouchIT Education”) was established on August 27, 2007 with a “Share Transfer of Open Company and amendment Agreement.”
On May 7, 2010 TouchIT Education, TouchIT Technologies and their stockholders (“TouchIT Turkey”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Hotel Management Systems, Inc. (“Hotel Management”), a Nevada corporation.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Hotel Management issued a total of 48,330,000 shares of their common stock, par value USD 01 per share (the “Common Stock”) to the shareholders of TouchIT Technologies and TouchIT Education in exchange for the transfer of 100% of the shares of TouchIT Tech and TouchIT Education to Hotel Management. This exchange transaction resulted in TouchIT Technologies and TouchIT Education becoming Hotel Management. The wholly-owned subsidiaries and the stockholders of TouchIT Turkey own approximately 78.93% of the Hotel Management’s issued and outstanding stock, prior to any financing.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, on May 7, 2010, Management entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with investors for the sale of shares up to the value of USD 1,500,000 (the Purchase Price”). As a result USD 750,000 of the Purchase Price was recognized in TouchIT Education’s balance sheet as a future obligation to one of the investors.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
|
In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure,” to require entities to separately disclose the amounts and business rationale for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and separately present information regarding purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair value measures on a gross basis. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009 with the exception of disclosures regarding the purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair measures which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, its adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
3.
|
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|
The Company maintains its books of account and prepares financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States of America. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.
4.
|
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into, cash, with original maturities of three months or less.
Basis of Accounting
The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting.
Accounts Receivable – Recognition of Bad Debt

TOUCHIT TECHNOLOGIES, INC
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012
Revenue recognition
The company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services are rendered, the sales price is terminable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue typically is recognized at the time of shipment. Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates, and returns.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Costs, including an appropriate portion of fixed and variable overhead expenses are assigned to inventories by the method most appropriate to the particular class of inventory being valued on the weighted average basis.
Related Parties
Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making the financial and operating decisions. For the purpose of these financial statements shareholders are referred to as related parities. Related parties are also included individuals that are principle owners, management and members of the Company’s Board of Directors and their families.
Capitalization
All costs incurred over $500 are capitalized. Costs which lengthen the life of a fixed asset are capitalized and depreciated over the extended life of the asset.
Depreciation
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Assets reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstances or events may indicate that the carrying amounts are not recoverable. If the fair value is less that the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference.
Taxation
The Company has elected to be treated as a regular “C” corporation; therefore, the corporation , not the stockholders, will pay income taxes.
Leases
Leases are classified as capital leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012
Comprehensive Income
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” SFAS No. 130 is effective for years beginning after June 15, 1997. This statement provides reporting standards of comprehensive income and its components and requires that all components of comprehensive income be reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130 in its financial statements and adoption of this statement did not have any effect.
Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an assets or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The guidance includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority
To unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Quoted, active market prices for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 also includes U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities and federal agency mortgage-backed securities, which are traded by dealers of brokers in active markets. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. The Company did not have any Level 1 assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted for identical or similar assets in inactive markets, and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. The Company did not have any Level 2 assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are observable in the market. The Company did not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities.
