PART
I
Item 1.
Business.
Our Background. We
were incorporated in Nevada on December 4, 2006.
Our Business. We are an
Internet-based provider of international surf resorts, camps and guided surf
tours. We also intend to operate a surf camp at Scorpion Bay, which is located
in San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Through our Mexican subsidiary, we
own approximately 2.5 acres of land on the beach at Scorpion Bay.
We are
developing a website which advertises privately owned surf resorts, camps and
guided surf tours in locations that we believe offer world class
surf. For surf resort operators and property owners, our website will
market their resorts, camps, and property rentals. Our primary source
of revenue from our website will be fees that are charged to the surf resort
operators or property owners as a percentage of the vacationers’ total rental
price. We anticipate that those fees will continue to be our primary source of
revenue from our website, although we may attempt to generate additional revenue
sources such as Internet advertising.
Our Proposed Surf Resort. We
intend to develop a surf camp at Scorpion Bay, which is located in San Juanico,
Baja California Sur, Mexico. Through our Mexican subsidiary, we own one hectare,
which is approximately 2.5 acres of land, on the beach at Scorpion Bay. Our
parcel has 50 meters of oceanfront and a length of 243 meters. South swells
from the southern hemisphere and local hurricanes spin off mainland Mexico
sending what we believe are perfect waves to a series of point breaks at
Scorpion Bay. The land at Scorpion Bay has recently been privatized and ocean
front properties have been listed for sale. In addition, the Mexican government
is currently paving the road that provides access to Scorpion Bay.
For the
foreseeable future, we intend to lead surfing expeditions to Scorpion Bay and
hold camps on our property. We hope to generate revenues from our surf camps
during the summer season when there are historically a consistent amount of
south swells.
We are
reviewing plans to study the feasibility of building surf casas, or vacation
rentals, for our camps and for visiting surfers and travelers to rent from us
when we are not holding our camps. We are also assessing the feasibility
of sub-dividing our parcel into smaller parcels and selling them as we believe
that we can sell the smaller lots at a significant gain on our cost. We also may
build on the subdivided lots and offer the surf casas for sale as a finished
product.
Our Website
www.isurfresorts.com. We are currently developing our website
to allow consumers to search through all of our surf resorts, camps and rental
properties and access detailed property information including photographs. Our
primary source of revenue will be fees that are charged to the property owners
as a percentage of the vacationer’s total rental rate. Fee percentages for
vacation condominiums and homes range from approximately 3% to over 40% of
rental rates depending on the market and the type of services provided to the
property owner.
2
Internet Advertising. We
anticipate that we will be able to generate advertising revenues from companies
which have complementary products such as airlines and travel agents and desire
to advertise our on website. The Internet is an attractive method for certain
advertisers, depending on the number of unique visitors we have to our site, the
amount of time they spend on our site and a variety of other
factors. Internet advertising spending continues to increase on an
annual basis. We believe that significant revenues can be generated from online
advertising from small business service providers and product
vendors.
Future Website and Products.
We hope to design our future website to provide a wide range of services
to surfers and surf resort and camp operators as well as vacation rental owners.
Our website will continue to allow consumers to search through all of our surf
resorts, camps and vacation rentals and access detailed information including
photographs of the surf and accommodations. We hope that our future website will
also allow users to obtain local information about the location of the surf
resort as well as information about special offers and promotions. As we
generate revenues, we anticipate that we will expand our website to include
specialized concierge-type services for traveling surfers and their
families.
Our Target Markets and Marketing
Strategy. We believe that our primary target market will
consist of surfers and vacationers as well as surf resort and camp operators and
vacation rental owners that desire to promote the rental of their surf resorts
and camps and rental properties. We believe that many operators and owners
desire to book their surf resorts and rent their properties without being
responsible for the advertising and promotion of their own
properties.
We will
market and promote our website on the Internet. Our marketing strategy is to
promote our services and products and attract businesses to our
website. Our marketing initiatives include:
·
|
utilizing
direct response print advertisements placed primarily in surf related
magazines and special interest
magazines;
|
·
|
links
to industry focused websites;
|
·
|
develop
and print sales and marketing materials including brochures and cards;
and
|
·
|
initiate
direct contact with those potential
customers.
|
Growth Strategy. Our objective
is to become one of the dominant providers of surf resorts and camps and guided
surf tours in surf related areas. Key elements of our strategy
include:
·
|
create
awareness of our products and
services;
|
·
|
continue
and expand our website;
|
·
|
increase
the number of Internet users to our
website;
|
·
|
increase
our relationships with clients;
|
·
|
provide
additional services for businesses and consumers;
and
|
·
|
pursue
relationships with joint venture candidates which will support our
development. We currently do not have plans, agreements, understandings or
arrangements to engage in joint
ventures.
|
Our Industry. The surf resort,
camp and vacation rental industry is highly fragmented, with many small
companies that offer surf resorts and camps throughout the world. We believe
this fragmented market presents a significant opportunity for a company offering
a branded, international network of high quality surf resorts, camps and
vacation rentals with superior levels of customer service.
Our Competition. The surf
resort, camp and vacation rental industry is highly competitive and has low
barriers to entry. We believe that the principal competitive factors in
attracting our customers are:
·
|
the
quality of the surf at the locations that we showcase on our website;
and
|
·
|
quality,
cost and breadth of services and properties
provided.
|
3
We also
compete for customers from other operators of surf camps in Baja California and
specifically Scorpion Bay. Many of these competitors have greater financial
resources than we have and have been in operation for many years more than us.
In addition, many of these companies have greater name recognition among
surfers. These companies might be willing to sacrifice profitability to capture
a greater portion of the market for vacationers or pay higher prices than we
would for the same acquisition opportunities. Promotora Punta Pequena has
operated a surf camp on the main point in Scorpion Bay for several years and
currently rents vacation casas to traveling surfers. We do not know if we will
be able to compete with Promotora Punta Pequena as a surf camp operator or
provider of vacation rentals.
We also
compete directly with other companies and businesses that have online surf
resort, camps and vacation rental services which are functionally equivalent or
similar to our proposed website. We expect that these competitors will market
those websites to our target customers, which will significantly affect our
ability to compete. Many of these competitors have greater financial resources
and can afford to spend more resources than we can to market their websites. We
cannot guaranty that we will succeed in marketing our websites and generating
revenues. We cannot guaranty that our competitors will not succeed in marketing
their websites and generating revenues.
Our Intellectual Property. We
do not presently own any copyrights, patents, trademarks, licenses, concessions
or royalties, and we may rely on certain proprietary technologies, trade
secrets, and know-how that are not patentable. Although we may take
action to protect our unpatented trade secrets and our proprietary information,
in part, by the use of confidentiality agreements with our employees,
consultants and certain of our contractors, we cannot guaranty that
·
|
these
agreements will not be breached;
|
·
|
we
would have adequate remedies for any breach;
or
|
·
|
our
proprietary trade secrets and know-how will not otherwise become known or
be independently developed or discovered by
competitors.
|
We cannot
guaranty that our actions will be sufficient to prevent imitation or duplication
of both our products and services by others or prevent others from claiming
violations of their trade secrets and proprietary rights.
We
currently own the domain names www.isurfresorts.com.
Under current domain name registration practices, no one else can obtain a
duplicate domain name, but someone might obtain a similar name to the domain
name we ultimately use, or the identical name with a different suffix, such as
“.org”, or with a country designation. The regulation of domain names in the
United States and in foreign countries is subject to change, and we could be
unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that infringe or
otherwise decrease the value of our domain names.
Government Regulation. We are
subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations generally applied to
businesses, such as payroll taxes on the state and federal levels. We believe
that we are in conformity with all applicable laws in Nevada and the United
States.
We are
also subject to the laws and regulations of Mexico. Mexico is subject to
changing political, economic and regulatory influences that will affect our
business practices and operations. The North American Free Trade Agreement has
fostered ties between Mexico, the United States and Canada by removing trade
restrictions. However, foreign ownership of land in Mexico has traditionally
been subject to heavy regulation by the Mexican government. Any of these
regulations or a change in the current regulations could significantly hinder
our ability to develop our property in Mexico, which would negatively impact our
ability to generate revenues. We cannot predict what impact, if any,
such factors might have on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
In the
early 1900s, Mexico began the process to provide farmers a beneficiary interest
to land owned by the government. Those government parcels are known as “ejidos”.
In 1992, the Mexican government amended the laws to provide a process of legal
entitlement thereby giving the ejido farmers the right to convert the land to
private property and allowing them to benefit monetarily from the ensuing
regularization process. We believe the property we purchased has been properly
regularized and therefore, the seller had the right to sell the land to us. If
the property was not properly regularized and converted to private property,
then we may not actually own the property that we purchased. There have been
numerous, well publicized cases and examples of Americans, Canadians and other
non-Mexicans buying ejido land that has not been properly regularized. We cannot
guaranty that the property we purchased was properly regularized and converted
to private property.
4
We
believe that foreigners are able to purchase Mexican real estate through a bank
trust called a Fideicomiso. The Fideicomiso enables foreigners to own property
in Mexico in what is called the “restricted zone.” The restricted zone is
that land which is located within 60 miles of the border or 30 miles of the
coastline. The Fideicomiso gives the purchaser all rights of
ownership. If the parcel is larger than 2000 square meters,
approximately one half acre, then the property should be held in a Mexican
corporation, which is wholly foreign owned with the intention of doing business.
Because the parcel is one hectare, or approximately 12,150 square meters, we hired a local Mexican
attorney to form a Mexican subsidiary corporation for the purpose of owning the
property located at San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico. We believe we have
followed the appropriate laws regarding foreign ownership of land in Mexico and
that we are in conformity with all applicable laws in the relevant
jurisdictions. Although we have followed the advice of our Mexican legal
counsel, we cannot guaranty we have clean title to the property located at San
Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico.
Our Mexican Subsidiary. In
February 2007, we incorporated ISR de Mexico, S. de R. L. de C.V., a Mexico
corporation, for the purpose of owning the property at San Juanico, Baja
California Sur, Mexico. We own approximately 55% of the issued and outstanding
shares of our Mexican subsidiary’s capital stock. Timothy Neely, our former
officer, director and principal shareholder, owns approximately 15% of the
issued and outstanding shares of our Mexican subsidiary’s capital stock. ISR
Investments LLC, one of our principal shareholders, owns approximately 30% of
the issued and outstanding shares of our Mexican subsidiary’s capital
stock.
Our Research and
Development. We are not currently conducting any research and
development activities, other than the development of our website. We
do not anticipate conducting such activities in the near future.
Employees. As of
March 29, 2009, we have no employees other than our officers. We will utilize
independent contractors, consultants, and other creative personnel from time to
time to assist in developing our products. We are not a party to any
employment agreements.
Our Facilities. Our
offices are located at 1097 Country Coach Dr., Suite 705, Henderson, Nevada
89002. Our office space is provided to us by one of our directors at no
charge. We treat the usage of the office space as additional paid-in
capital and charge the estimated fair value rent of $150 per month to
operations. We recorded total rent expense of $1,800 for the year ended December
31, 2008. We believe that our facilities are adequate for our needs. We do not
own any real estate.
Item 1A. Risk
Factors.
Investing
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Any potential investor
should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before
purchasing any shares of our common stock. The risks described below are those
we currently believe may materially affect us.
Risks Related to our
Business:
We
have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can
be made.
We were
formed on December 4, 2006. Our lack of operating history in the Internet
industry makes an evaluation of our business and prospects very difficult. Our
prospects must be considered speculative, considering the risks, expenses, and
difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of a new business. We
cannot be certain that our business will be successful or that we will generate
significant revenues and become profitable.
We
will need to raise additional capital to fund our operations. Our failure to
raise additional capital will significantly affect our ability to fund our
proposed activities.
To
develop and market our proposed surf camps and resorts, we will be required to
raise additional funds through debt or equity financings. We do not know if we
will be able to acquire additional financing. We anticipate that we will need to
spend significant funds on developing our proposed surf camps and resorts. Our
failure to obtain additional funds would significantly limit or eliminate our
ability to fund our operations.
5
We have incurred a net loss since
inception and expect to incur net losses for the foreseeable
future.
As of
December 31, 2008, our net loss since inception was $114,487. We expect to incur
operating and capital expenditures of up to $50,000 for the next year and, as a
result, we expect significant net losses in the future. We will need to generate
significant revenues to achieve and maintain profitability. We may not be able
to generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitable operations.
We are a
development stage company that is currently developing our business. To date, we
have not generated any revenues, and we do not anticipate that we will generate
any revenues for the foreseeable future. The success of our business operations
will depend upon our ability to develop our surf resort website and provides
quality service to those visitors to our site. We are not able to predict
whether we will be able to develop our business and generate revenues. If we are
not able to complete the successful development of our business plan, generate
significant revenues and attain sustainable operations, then our business will
fail.
There
is significant uncertainty with respect to the viability and growth potential
for the real estate market in Baja California Sur, Mexico. If the market fails
to develop or develops more slowly than we hope, our Mexican property may have
very little value.
The real
estate market in Baja California Sur, Mexico is rapidly evolving and likely will
be characterized by an increasing number of market entrants. However,
if the market for real estate in Baja California Sur, Mexico fails to develop,
or develops more slowly than we expect, the property that we purchased in San
Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico may be have very little value or be
worthless. Thus, acceptance of Baja California Sur, Mexico as a viable real
estate market is highly uncertain and subject to several potential factors,
including:
·
|
reluctance
of potential purchasers to choose to invest in real estate in Baja
California Sur, Mexico;
|
·
|
reluctance
of potential purchasers to follow through with their purchase of real
property in Baja California Sur, Mexico;
and
|
·
|
concerns
about whether potential purchasers will possess clean title to the real
property in Baja California Sur, Mexico and in the future be able to
convey that property to future
purchaser.
|
The
property that we purchased in San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico was
originally “ejido” property and may not have been properly converted to private
property.
In the
early 1900s, Mexico began the process to provide farmers a beneficiary interest
to land owned by the government. Those government parcels are known as “ejidos”.
In 1992, the Mexican government amended the laws to provide a process of legal
entitlement thereby giving the ejido farmers the right to convert the land to
private property and allowing them to benefit monetarily from the ensuing
regularization process. We do not know if the property we purchased has been
properly regularized and therefore, if the seller had the right to sell the land
to us. If the property was not properly regularized and converted to private
property, then we may not actually own the property that we purchased. We cannot
guaranty that the property we purchased was properly regularized and converted
to private property.
6
Our
operations are significantly impacted by the laws and regulations of Mexico as
well as the political instability of the Mexican government.
Mexico is
subject to changing political, economic and regulatory influences that will
affect our business practices and operations. The North American Free Trade
Agreement has fostered ties between Mexico, the United States and Canada by
removing trade restrictions. However, foreign ownership of land in Mexico has
traditionally been subject to heavy regulation by the Mexican government. Any of
these regulations or a change in the current regulations could significantly
hinder our ability to develop our property in Mexico, which would negatively
impact our ability to generate revenues. We cannot predict what
impact, if any, such factors might have on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
We
do not know if we have clean title to the property we purchased in San Juanico,
Baja California Sur, Mexico.
Because
the parcel we purchased is one hectare, or approximately 12,150 square
meters, we hired a
local Mexican attorney to form a Mexican subsidiary corporation for the purpose
of owning the property located at San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico. We
hope that we have followed the appropriate laws regarding foreign ownership of
land in Mexico and that we are in conformity with all applicable laws in the
relevant jurisdictions. Although we have followed the advice of our Mexican
legal counsel, we do not know with certainty if we have clean title to the
property we purchased San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico, or if we will
have clean title to any other properties that we purchase in the future. Our
inability to prove that we have clean title to that property could significant
decrease the value of the property, which could cause investors to lose their
entire investment in us.
Our business may be subject to
Mexican currency fluctuations.
We intend
to have operations in Mexico and therefore anticipate that some of our
transactions may involve the use of the Mexican Peso, the official currency of
Mexico. Throughout the 1990s, the Mexican Peso was extremely volatile
and we anticipate that the Mexican Peso may continue to display such volatility.
Although management will monitor our exposure to currency fluctuations, we
cannot guaranty that exchange rate fluctuations will not negatively impact our
financial condition.
A
downturn in the general economy or the real estate market would harm our
business.
Our
business is negatively impacted by periods of economic slowdown or recession,
rising interest rates and declining demand for real estate. These economic
conditions could have a number of effects, which could have an adverse impact on
certain segments of our business, including the following:
·
|
a
decline in residential transactions and commercial acquisition,
disposition and leasing activity;
|
·
|
a
decline in the supply of capital invested in commercial real estate;
and
|
·
|
a
decline in the value of real estate and in rental rates, which would cause
us to realize lower revenue.
|
Economic
and political developments in Mexico could affect Mexican economic policy and
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our
Mexican subsidiary is a Mexican corporation and all of its operations and assets
are located in Mexico. As a result, our business, financial condition and
results of operations may be affected by the general condition of the Mexican
economy, the devaluation of the Peso as compared to the U.S. Dollar, price
instability, inflation, interest rates, regulation, taxation, social instability
and other political, social and economic developments in or affecting Mexico
over which we have no control.
The
Mexican government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant
influence over the Mexican economy. Mexican governmental actions concerning the
economy and state-owned enterprises could have a significant effect on Mexican
private sector entities in general, and us in particular, and on market
conditions, prices and returns on companies with Mexican
operations.
Mexico
has experienced adverse economic conditions.
Mexico
has historically experienced uneven periods of economic growth. If the Mexican
economy should fall into a recession, our business, financial condition and
results of operations may be negatively affected.
7
High
interest rates in Mexico could increase our financing costs.
Mexico
historically has had, and may continue to have, high interest rates.
Accordingly, if we have to incur Peso-denominated debt in the future, it will
likely be at higher interest rates. High interest rates in Mexico could increase
our financing costs and thereby impair our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows.
We face intense competition, which
could hinder our ability to implement our business plan and generate
revenues. Most of our
competitors have significantly greater resources than we do. If we
cannot compete effectively, we may not be able to generate any revenues, or
achieve or sustain profitability.
Our
principal competitors include companies that are well recognized as providers of
surf resorts and camps for several years and have an established customer base.
These competitors may enhance their services to include some that we may not be
able to provide until we achieve profitability. Many of our current and
potential competitors enjoy substantial competitive advantages, such
as:
·
|
greater
name recognition;
|
·
|
larger
marketing budgets and resources;
|
·
|
established
marketing relationships;
|
·
|
access
to larger customer bases; and
|
·
|
substantially
greater financial, technical and other
resources.
|
As a
result, they may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to
new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer
requirements. In addition, because barriers to the real estate field
are fairly low, additional competitors may enter our market.
We also
compete for customers from other operators of surf camps in Baja California and
specifically Scorpion Bay. Many of these competitors have greater financial
resources than we have and have been in operation for many years more than us.
In addition, many of these companies have greater name recognition among
surfers. These companies might be willing to sacrifice profitability to capture
a greater portion of the market for vacationers or pay higher prices than we
would for the same acquisition opportunities. Promotora Punta Pequena has
operated a surf camp at Scorpion Bay for several years and currently rents
vacation casas to traveling surfers. We do not know if we will be able to
compete with Promotora Punta Pequena as a surf camp operator or provider of
vacation rentals.
For all
of the foregoing reasons, we may not be able to compete successfully against our
current and future competitors.
Our
officers and directors are engaged in other activities that could conflict with
our interests. Therefore, our officers and directors may not devote sufficient
time to our affairs, which may affect our ability to conduct marketing
activities and generate revenues.
The
people currently serving as our officers and directors have existing
responsibilities and have additional responsibilities to provide management and
services to other entities. As a result, conflicts of interest between us and
the other activities of those entities may occur from time to time, in that our
officers and directors shall have conflicts of interest in allocating time,
services, and functions between the other business ventures in which they may be
or become involved and our affairs. Our officers and directors currently work
for us on a part time basis.
We depend on the efforts and
abilities of our management to continue operations.
Eduardo
Biancardi is our only employee with experience relevant to business. Outside
demands on his time may prevent him from devoting sufficient time to our
operations. The interruption of the services of Mr. Biancardi will significantly
hinder our operations, profits and future development, especially if suitable
replacements are not promptly obtained. We do not currently have any
executive compensation agreements. We cannot guaranty that our
management will remain with us.
8
Our
auditors have questioned our ability to continue operations as a “going
concern.” Investors may lose all of their investment if we are unable to
continue operations.
We hope
to begin generating revenues. In the absence of generating revenues, we will
seek to raise additional funds to meet our working capital needs principally
through the additional sales of our securities. However, we cannot
guaranty that we will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed,
or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to
us. As a result, our auditors believe that substantial doubt exists about our
ability to continue operations.
The
costs to meet our reporting requirements as a public company subject to the
Exchange Act of ’34 will be substantial and may result in us having insufficient
funds to operate our business.
We will
incur ongoing expenses associated with professional fees for accounting and
legal expenses associated with being a public company. We estimate that these
costs will range up to $50,000 per year for the next few years. Those fees will
be higher if our business volume and activity increases. Those
obligations will reduce and possibly eliminate our ability and resources to fund
our operations and may prevent us from meeting our normal business
obligations.
Risks Related to Owning Our
Common Stock:
Our
officers, directors and principal shareholders own approximately 84.36% of our
outstanding shares of common stock, allowing these shareholders control matters
requiring approval of our shareholders.
Our
officers, director and principal shareholders beneficially own, in the
aggregate, approximately 84.36% of our outstanding shares of common
stock. Such concentrated control of the company may negatively affect
the price of our common stock. Our officers, directors and principal
shareholders can control matters requiring approval by our security holders,
including the election of directors.
The offering price of the shares of
common stock was arbitrarily determined. Therefore, investors may lose all or
part of their investment if the offering price is higher than the current market
value of the offered shares.
The
offering price of the shares of common stock being offered by the selling
shareholders has been determined arbitrarily and has no relationship to any
established criteria of value, such as book value or earnings per share.
Additionally, because we have no significant operating history and have
generated no revenues to date, the price of the shares of common stock is not
based on past earnings, nor is the price of the shares indicative of current
market value for the assets owned by us. Investors could lose all or a part of
their investment if the offering price has been arbitrarily set too high. Even
if a public trading market develops for our common stock, the shares may not
attain market values commensurate with the offering price.
We lack a public market for shares of
our common stock, which may make it difficult for investors to sell their
shares.
There is
no public market for shares of our common stock. We cannot guaranty that an
active public market will develop or be sustained. Therefore, investors may not
be able to find purchasers for their shares of our common stock. Should there
develop a significant market for our shares, the market price for those shares
may be significantly affected by such factors as our financial results and
introduction of new products and services.
9
Our
common stock is subject to penny stock regulations which may make it difficult
for investors to sell their stock.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer
practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks”. Penny
stocks generally are equity securities with a 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 not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which
specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of
risks of the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide
the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation
of the broker-dealer and salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account
statements indicating 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
agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have
the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock
that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. If our common stock
becomes subject to the penny stock rules, holders of our shares may have
difficulty selling those shares.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff
Comments.
None.
Item 2.
Properties.
Property held by us. As of the
December 31, 2008, through our Mexican subsidiary, we own one hectare, which is
approximately 2.5 acres of land located in San Juanico, Baja California Sur,
Mexico. The property is undeveloped land located adjacent to the beach. Our
parcel has 50 meters of oceanfront and a length of 243 meters. There is no
mortgage or lien on the property. We are reviewing plans to study the
feasibility of building surf casas, or vacation rentals, for our camps and for
visiting surfers and travelers to rent from us when we are not holding our
camps. We are also assessing the feasibility of sub-dividing our parcel
into smaller parcels and selling them as we believe that we can sell the smaller
lots at a significant gain on our cost. We also may build on the subdivided lots
and offer the surf casas for sale as a finished product. We believe the property
is suitable for the uses we are contemplating, although there is currently no
electricity or water at the property. We are currently assessing the estimated
cost of any proposed program for the renovation, improvement or development of
the property. We will need to obtain financing to develop the property. We do
not have any insurance for the property. We do not presently own any other
interests in real estate.
Our Facilities. Our
offices are located at 1097 Country Coach Dr., Suite 705, Henderson, Nevada
89002. Our office space is provided to us by one of our directors at no
charge. We treat the usage of the office space as additional paid-in
capital and charge the estimated fair value rent of $150 per month to
operations. We recorded total rent expense of $1,800 for the years
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. We believe that our facilities are adequate
for our needs. We do not own any real estate.
Item 3. Legal
Proceedings.
There are
no legal actions pending against us nor are any legal actions contemplated by us
at this time.
Item 4. Submission of
Matters to Vote of Security Holders.
Not
applicable.

Market Information. In
January 2008, our common stock became eligible for quotation on the
Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “ISFR”. As of March 29, 2009,
no shares of our common stock have traded.

Reports to Security Holders.
We filed annual, quarterly and current reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The public may read and copy any materials filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Security and Exchange
Commission’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.
20549. The public may also obtain information on the operation of the Public
Reference Room by calling the Securities and Exchange Commission at
1-800-SEC-0330. The Securities and Exchange Commission maintains an
Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other
information regarding issuers that file electronically with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The address of that site is
http://www.sec.gov.
We had
3,769,800 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31,
2008.
As of
March 27, 2009, there were 41 record holders of our common stock.
There are
no outstanding shares of our common stock which can be sold pursuant to Rule
144. There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities
convertible into, shares of our common stock. We registered for sale 489,800
shares of common stock held by our shareholders in our registration Statement on
Form SB-2, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 4,
2007.
Dividend Policy. We have never
declared or paid a cash dividend on our capital stock. We do not expect to pay
cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently
intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use in our business. Any dividends
declared in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and
subject to any restrictions that may be imposed by our lenders.
No Equity Compensation Plan.
We do not have any securities authorized for issuance under any equity
compensation plan. We also do not have an equity compensation plan
and do not plan to implement such a plan.
Recent Sales of Unregistered
Securities. There have been no sales of unregistered securities within
the last three (3) years which would be required to be disclosed pursuant to
Item 701 of Regulation S-B, except for the following:
In June
2007, we issued 529,800 shares of our common stock for $0.25 per share for gross
proceeds of $132,450. In March 2007, we issued 240,000 shares of our common
stock to repay certain loans in the amount of $60,000. The shares were issued in
a transaction which we believe satisfies the requirements of that exemption from
the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that act
and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated pursuant to that act by the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
In
December 2006, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to Timothy Neely,
our founder and former officer and director, and 2,000,000 shares of our common
stock to two individuals. These shares were issued in exchange for
gross proceeds of $15,000, or $.005 per share. The shares were issued in a
transaction which we believe satisfies the requirements of that certain
exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which exemption is specified by the
provisions of Section 4(2) of that act.
Use of Proceeds of Registered
Securities. There were no sales or proceeds during the calendar year
ended December 31, 2008, for the sale of registered securities.
Penny Stock
Regulation. Shares of our common stock will probably be
subject to rules adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny
stocks”. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a 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 those securities is provided by the
exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer,
prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules,
deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, which contains the following:
·
|
a
description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks
in both public offerings and secondary
trading;
|
·
|
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 violation to
such duties or other requirements of securities’
laws;
|
11
·
|
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;
|
·
|
a
toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary
actions;
|
·
|
definitions
of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct
of trading in penny stocks;
and
|
·
|
such
other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and
format), as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule
or regulation.
|
Prior to
effecting any transaction in penny stock, the broker-dealer also must provide
the customer the following:
·
|
the
bid and offer quotations for the penny
stock;
|
·
|
the
compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction;
|
·
|
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
|
·
|
monthly
account statements 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 to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably
statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of
reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes
subject to the penny stock rules. Holders of shares of our common
stock may have difficulty selling those shares because our common stock will
probably be subject to the penny stock rules.
Purchases of Equity Securities.
None during the period covered by this report.
Item 6. Selected Financial
Data.
Not
applicable.
Item 7. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition or Plan of
Operation.
This
following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management
of the company. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the
happening of future events are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking
statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as
“may”, “shall”, “could”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”,
“probable”, “possible”, “should”, “continue”, or similar terms, variations of
those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements
specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on
the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be
reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and
no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those
forward-looking statements.
The
assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the
following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to
uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other
circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and
other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and
among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent
that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from
anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on
the achievability of those forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given
that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified
in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update
any such forward-looking statements.
12
Critical Accounting Policies and
Estimates. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial
statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and
judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses,
financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its
estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors
that are believed to be 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. The most
significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial
statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain
assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources. These
accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and
analysis and in the notes to the financial statements included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The
following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should
be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2008.
For the year ended December
31, 2008 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2007.
Results
of Operations.
Revenues. We had no
revenue for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.
Operating Expenses and Net Loss.
Our net loss from operations of $52,917 for the year ended December 31,
2008, was comprised of legal and professional fees of $43,489, rent of $1,800
and general and administrative expenses of $7,623 and dues and fees of $2,942,
for a net loss of $53,586, before minority interest in our subsidiary of
$669. This is in comparison to the year ended December 31,
2007, during which we had a net loss of $58,723, comprised of legal and
professional fees of $49,748, rent of $1,800 and general and administrative
expenses of $4,085 and dues and fees of $5,891, for a net loss of $59,423,
before minority interest in our subsidiary of $700.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources. We had cash of $74,588 as of December 31, 2008, as
compared to cash of $109,846 as of December 31, 2007. In June 2007, we
raised $132,450 in a private placement in exchange for 529,800 shares of our
common stock. We have used a small portion of those proceeds for the audit and
review of our financial statements. In March 2007, we issued 240,000 shares of
our common stock to repay certain loans in the amount of $60,000. As
of December 31, 2008, our investment in real property was $61,335. We expect
that we will incur expense related to our president traveling to the property
located in San Juanico, Baja California, Mexico, as well as professional fees to
determine feasibility of potential uses of that property. As of December 31,
2008, our total liabilities were $41,859, all of which was represented by
accounts payable.
During
2009, we anticipate that we will incur significant accounting costs associated
with the audit and review of our financial statements. We expect that the legal
and accounting costs of being a public company will continue to impact our
liquidity and we may need to obtain funds to pay those expenses. Other than the
anticipated increases in legal and accounting costs due to the reporting
requirements of being a reporting company and those anticipated costs related to
our real property as specified above, we are not aware of any other known
trends, events or uncertainties, which may affect our future liquidity. We had
no long term liabilities, commitments or contingencies.
In
September 2007, we filed a Registration Statement on Form SB-2 for the
registration of 489,800 shares of our outstanding common stock. On
October 4, 2007, our registration statement was declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The purpose of the SB-2 was to
register shares of common stock held by our existing shareholders.
13
Our Plan of Operation for the Next
Twelve Months. To effectuate our business plan during the next
twelve months, we must determine the feasibility of building surf casas, or
vacation rentals, for our property located in San Juanico, Baja California,
Mexico. We are currently assessing the feasibility of building surf casas
and also the feasibility of sub-dividing our parcel into smaller parcels and
selling them as we believe that we can sell the smaller lots at a significant
gain on our cost. We also may build on the subdivided lots and offer the surf
casas for sale as a finished product. In order to properly determine the
feasibility of those projects, our president Eduardo Biancardi intends to travel
to the property and live in San Juanico for a period of time. We also intend to
look for opportunities to work with other companies that will assist us in our
development of the property. In addition, during the next twelve months, we must
continue to develop our website and begin to attract customers.
During
the next three to six months, our primary objective is to complete our
assessment of the opportunities for the property located in San Juanico, Baja
California, Mexico, and complete development of our website. During the next six
to twelve months, we hope to raise additional funds so that we can expand our
product offerings and begin generating revenues. We believe that we will need to
spend approximately $5,000 to complete the development of website. In order to
market and promote our services and develop our property in San Juanico, Baja
California, Mexico, we will need to raise additional capital. Our failure to
market and promote our services will hinder our ability to increase the size of
our operations and generate revenues. If we are not able to generate additional
revenues that cover our estimated operating costs, our business may ultimately
fail.
We had
cash of $74,558 as of December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management,
available funds will satisfy our working capital requirements for the next
twelve months. Our forecast for the period for which our financial resources
will be adequate to support our operations involves risks and uncertainties and
actual results could fail as a result of a number of factors. In the
event that we experience a shortfall in our capital, we intend to pursue capital
through public or private financing as well as borrowings and other sources,
such as our officers, director and principal shareholders. We cannot guaranty
that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If
adequate funds are not available, we hope that our officers, director and
principal shareholders will contribute funds to pay for our expenses to achieve
our objectives over the next twelve months. However, our officers, director and
principal shareholders are not committed to contribute funds to pay for our
expenses.
We are
not currently conducting any research and development activities other than the
development of our website which we expect the total cost to be approximately
$1,500. We do not anticipate that we will purchase or sell any significant
equipment. In the event that we generate significant revenues and expand our
operations, then we may need to hire additional employees or independent
contractors as well as purchase or lease additional equipment.
On the
cover page of our previous quarterly and annual reports, we have checked the
shell company status box because our management had believed that we may have
been considered a shell company as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. After further
review, we do not believe that we are a shell company as we have significant
assets, specifically our property located in San Juanico, Baja California,
Mexico. Furthermore, our operations have increased over the last six months and
we anticipate that they will continue to increase as we look to develop our
property located in San Juanico, Baja California, Mexico. Accordingly, we have
checked the box on the cover page of this report that specifies we are not a
shell company.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet
arrangements.

Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders
International
Surf Resorts, Inc.
Henderson,
Nevada
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of International Surf
Resorts, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and
cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (December
4, 2006) through December 31, 2008. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated 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 audits 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 audits 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 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. 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 consolidated financial position of International
Surf Resorts, Inc. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from
inception (December 4, 2006) through December 31, 2008, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2,
the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and has an accumulated
deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard
to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

POLICIES
|
Organization and Nature of
Operations
International
Surf Resorts, Inc. (the Company) is currently a development stage company under
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting by
Development Stage Enterprises”, and was incorporated under the laws of
the State of Nevada on December 4, 2006. From inception (December 4,
2006) through December 31, 2008, the Company has produced no revenues and will
continue to report as a development stage company until significant revenues are
produced.
The
Company is an Internet based provider of international surf resorts, camps, and
guided surf tours. The Company also intends to operate a surf camp in San
Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico on 2.5 acres of land that it owns
there.
On
February 19, 2007, the Company formed ISR de Mexico, a Mexican corporation, for
the purpose of acquiring real estate in Mexico. At December 31, 2008,
the Company owned 55% of ISR de Mexico. The remaining 45% interest is
owned by related parties.
Principles of
Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of International Surf
Resorts, Inc. and its 55% owned subsidiary, ISR de Mexico. All
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation
and minority interests were accounted for in the consolidated statements of
operations and the balance sheets.
Minority
Interest
The
Company’s percentage of controlling interest requires that operations be
included in the consolidated financial statements. The percentage of equity
interest that is not owned by the Company is shown as “Minority interest in
subsidiary” in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of
operations.

NATURE
OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(Continued)
|
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ
from those estimates.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the balance sheet and statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method and
with useful lives used in computing depreciation ranging from 3 to 5
years. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed
of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred;
additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived
assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be
appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an
asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset,
including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the
carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the
difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value or disposable
value. As of December 31, 2008, the Company did not deem any of its long-term
assets to be impaired.

|
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income
Taxes”. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements
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. Under
SFAS 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A
valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more
likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future
operations.
Comprehensive Income
(Loss)
The
Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive
Income” (SFAS 130). SFAS 130 establishes standards for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss, requiring its components
to be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same
prominence as other financial statements. For the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period from inception (December 4, 2006)
through December 31, 2008, the Company had no other components of comprehensive
loss other than net loss as reported on the statement of
operations.
Basic and Diluted Income
(Loss) Per Share
In
accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”, basic
income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss)
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed
similar to basic income per common share except that the denominator is
increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional
common shares were dilutive. As of December 30, 2008 and 2007, the
Company did not have any equity or debt instruments outstanding that could be
converted into common stock.

Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (SFAS
No. 141(R)), which replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations,
requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed,
and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date,
measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This
Statement also requires the acquirer in a business combination achieved in
stages to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the
non-controlling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair
values.
SFAS
No. 141(R) makes various other amendments to authoritative literature
intended to provide additional guidance or to confirm the guidance in that
literature to that provided in this Statement. This Statement applies
prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or
after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. We do not expect this will have a significant impact on
our financial statements.
In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS
No. 160, Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS No. 160), which amends
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated
Financial Statements, to
improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial
information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial
statements. SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards
that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries not held by the parent to
be clearly identified, labeled and presented in the consolidated statement of
financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity. This
statement also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to
the parent and to the non-controlling interest to be clearly identified and
presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. Changes in a
parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial
interest must be accounted for consistently, and when a subsidiary is
deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former
subsidiary must be initially measured at fair value. The gain or loss on the
deconsolidation of the subsidiary is measured using the fair value of any
non-controlling equity investment. The Statement also requires entities to
provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the
interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. This
Statement applies prospectively to all entities that prepare consolidated
financial statements and applies prospectively for fiscal years, and interim
periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
We do not expect this will have a significant impact on our financial
statements.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In May,
2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (SFAS 162). SFAS 162 identifies the sources of
accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America. This statement was effective for the
Company on November 15, 2008 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s
financial statements.
In
October 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a
Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active (FSP 157-3).
FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active
and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair
value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not
active. As it relates to the Company’s financial assets and liabilities
recognized or disclosed at fair value in its financial statements on a recurring
basis (at least annually), the adoption of FSP 157-3 did not have a material
impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In
December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)-8 (FSP FIN
46(R)-8), Disclosures about
Variable Interest Entities (VIEs). FSP FIN 46(R)-8 requires
enhanced disclosures about a company’s involvement in VIEs. The enhanced
disclosures required by this FSP are intended to provide users of financial
statements with an greater understanding of: (1) the significant judgments
and assumptions made by a company in determining whether it must consolidate a
VIE and/or disclose information about its involvement with a VIE; (2) the
nature of restrictions on a consolidated VIEs assets reported by a company in
its statement of financial position, including the carrying amounts of such
assets; (3) the nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with a
company’s involvement with a VIE; (4) how a company’s involvement with a
VIE affects the company’s financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows. This FSP was effective for the Company on December 31, 2008 and did
not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

GOING
CONCERN
|
As shown
in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net
operating loss of $114,487 from inception (December 4, 2006) through December
31, 2008.
The
Company is subject to those risks associated with development stage
companies. The Company has sustained losses since inception and
additional debt or equity financing may be required by the Company to fund its
development activities and to support operations. However, there is
no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional
financing. Furthermore, there is no assurance that rapid
technological changes, changing customer needs and evolving industry standards
will enable the Company to introduce new products on a continual and timely
basis so that profitable operations can be attained.

FAIR VALUE OF
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
|
Fair Value
Measurements
On
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 (SFAS 157), Fair Value
Measurements. SFAS 157 relates to financial assets and
financial liabilities. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position
(FSP) No. FAS 157-2, Effective
Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date of
SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those
that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on at
least an annual basis, until January 1, 2009 for calendar year-end
entities.
SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP),
and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this
standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair
value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited
exceptions.

FAIR
VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(Continued)
|
Fair
Value Measurements (continued)
SFAS 157
defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. This standard is now the single source in GAAP for the
definition of fair value, except for the fair value of leased property as
defined in SFAS 13. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that
distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on
market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and
(2) an entity’s own assumptions, about market participant assumptions, that
are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances
(unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels,
which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to
unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy
under SFAS 157 are described below:
•
|
Level
1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the
measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or
liabilities.
|
•
|
Level
2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly,
including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active
markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in
markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are
observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs
that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market
data by correlation or other means.
|
•
|
Level
3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and
unobservable. These inputs rely on management's own assumptions about the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability. (The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best
information available in the circumstances and may include the Company's
own data.)

following table presents the Company's fair value hierarchy for those assets and
liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2008

On

Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS 159 provides a fair
value option election that allows entities to irrevocably elect fair value as
the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets
and liabilities. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings as they occur
for those assets and liabilities for which the election is made. The election is
made on an instrument by instrument basis at initial recognition of an asset or
liability or upon an event that gives rise to a new basis of accounting for that
instrument. The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a material impact on the
Company’s financial statements as the Company did not elect the fair value
option for any of its financial assets or liabilities.

PROVISION FOR INCOME
TAXES
|
As of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company reported an estimated federal net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $112,000 and $59,000, respectively
which can be used to offset future federal income tax. The federal
net operating loss carryforward expires in 2028. Deferred tax assets
resulting from the net operating losses are reduced by a valuation allowance,
when, in the opinion of management, utilization is not reasonably
assured.
As of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had the following deferred tax assets
that related to its net operating losses. A 100% valuation allowance has been
established, as management believes it more likely than not that the deferred
tax assets will not be realized:

The
Company’s valuation allowance increased by approximately $18,250 and $9,330 for

The
Company is also subject to the income tax laws of the foreign jurisdictions in
which the Company operates and are subject to different interpretations by the
taxpayer and the relevant governmental taxing authorities.
The
Company has implemented FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48) which sets out a consistent framework to
determine the appropriate level of tax reserves to maintain for uncertain tax
positions. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the

certain foreign corporations pursuant to IRC §6038 and §6046. The Company

Item 9. Changes in and
Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial
Disclosure.
There
have been no changes in or disagreements with our accountants since our
formation required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 304 of Regulation
S-B.
Item 9A. Controls and
Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure
controls and procedures.
We
maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to
be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our principal executive and
principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures
performed as of December 31, 2008, the date of this report, our chief executive
officer and the chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective.
Management's annual report
on internal control over financial reporting.
Our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer are responsible for
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process
designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal
financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other
personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
includes those policies and procedures that:
-
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
-
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our directors; and
-
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may
not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to
be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In
making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal
Control — Integrated Framework.
Based on
our assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer
believe that, as of December 31, 2008, our internal control over financial
reporting is not effective based on those criteria, due to the
following:
-
lack of proper segregation of functions, duties and responsibilities with respect to our cash and control over the disbursements related thereto due to our very limited staff, including our accounting personnel.
In light
of this conclusion and as part of the preparation of this report, we have
applied compensating procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the
reliability of our financial reporting. Accordingly, management believes, based
on its knowledge, that (1) this report does not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material face necessary to make the
statements made not misleading with respect to the period covered by this
report, and (2) the financial statements, and other financial information
included in this report, fairly present in all material respects our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows for the years and periods then
ended.

Changes in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our
most recently completed quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
Item 9B. Other

Director
|
Eduardo Biancardi. Mr. Eduardo Biancardi has been our President, Secretary,
Chief Financial Officer and one of our directors since May 2007. Mr.
Biancardi has traveled extensively to various international surf locations over
the last ten years, including Mexico (Mainland & Baja), Costa Rica, El
Salvador, Panama, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Spain, France,
Portugal, Germany, Canary Islands, Morocco, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Taiwan
and Indonesia. From June 2005 to present, Mr. Biancardi has been researching
potential surf resort locations while working as surf guide and photographer in
Indonesia. From January 2006 to September 2006, Mr. Biancardi performed
marketing services for Padang Padang Surf Camp in Bali, Indonesia. From 1996 to
2005, Mr. Biancardi worked as a marketing representative for ITW Shippers, a
manufacturer of products designed to meet the needs of companies shipping their
products using different modes of transportation. Mr. Biancardi is fluent in
Spanish and is conversant in Indonesian and Italian. Mr. Biancardi earned his
Bachelors degree in Communications from California State University, Long Beach
in 1991. Mr. Biancardi is not an officer or director of any other
company.
Santana Martinez. Mr. Santana
Martinez has been one of our directors since our inception in 2006. Since 1992,
Mr. Martinez has worked in various capacities at Mercedes Benz dealerships in
Nevada and Southern California. He currently is the wholesale parts advisor for
Fletcher Jones Mercedes in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr. Martinez is semi-fluent in
Spanish. Mr. Martinez is not an officer or director of any other
company.
All
directors hold office until the completion of their term of office, which is not
longer than one year, or until their successors have been
elected. All officers are appointed annually by the board of
directors and, subject to employment agreements (which do not currently exist),
serve at the discretion of the board. Currently, directors receive no
compensation.
16
There is
no family relationship between any of our officers or
directors. There are no orders, judgments, or decrees of any
governmental agency or administrator, or of any court of competent jurisdiction,
revoking or suspending for cause any license, permit or other authority to
engage in the securities business or in the sale of a particular security or
temporarily or permanently restraining any of our officers or directors from
engaging in or continuing any conduct, practice or employment in connection with
the purchase or sale of securities, or convicting such person of any felony or
misdemeanor involving a security, or any aspect of the securities business or of
theft or of any felony. Nor are any of the officers or directors of any
corporation or entity affiliated with us so enjoined.
Code of Ethics. We do not currently
have a Code of Ethics that applies to all
employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial
officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing
similar functions. We plan to adopt a Code of Ethics.
Nominating
Committee. Our entire Board participates in consideration of
director nominees. The Board will consider candidates who have experience as a
board member or senior officer of a company or who are generally recognized in a
relevant field as a well-regarded practitioner, faculty member or senior
government officer. The Board will also evaluate whether the
candidates' skills and experience are complementary to the existing Board's
skills and experience as well as the Board's need for operational, management,
financial, international, technological or other expertise. The Board will
interview candidates that meet the criteria and then select nominees that Board
believes best suit our needs.
The Board
will consider qualified candidates suggested by stockholders for director
nominations. Stockholders can suggest qualified candidates for director
nominations by writing to our Corporate Secretary, Eduardo Biancardi, at 1097
Country Coach Dr., Suite 705 Henderson, Nevada 89002. Submissions that are
received that meet the criteria described above will be forwarded to the Board
for further review and consideration. The Board will not evaluate candidates
proposed by stockholders any differently than other candidates
Compensation Committee. The board of
directors has no compensation committee.
Audit Committee Financial
Expert. Our board of directors does not have an “audit
committee financial expert,” within the meaning of such phrase under applicable
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, serving on its audit
committee. The board of directors believes that all members of its
audit committee are financially literate and experienced in business matters,
and that one or more members of the audit committee are capable of (I)
understanding generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and financial
statements, (ii) assessing the general application of GAAP principles in
connection with our accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, (iii)
analyzing and evaluating our financial statements, (iv) understanding our
internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and (v) understanding
audit committee functions, all of which are attributes of an audit committee
financial expert. However, the board of directors believes that there
are not any audit committee members who has obtained these attributes through
the experience specified in the SEC’s definition of “audit committee financial
expert.” Further, like many small companies, it is difficult for the
Company to attract and retain board members who qualify as “audit committee
financial experts,” as competition for these individuals is
significant. The board believes that its current audit committee is
able to fulfill its role under SEC regulations despite not having a designated
“audit committee financial expert.” We believe the cost related to
retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because of
our start-up operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not
warranted.
Audit Committee. Presently,
the board of directors acts as the audit committee. The board of directors does
not have an audit committee financial expert. The board of directors has not yet
recruited an audit committee financial expert to join the board of directors
because we have only recently commenced a significant level of financial
operations.

of Directors, which is not expected to occur until we have generated sufficient
revenues from our operations.

grants of stock options or stock appreciation rights were made since our date of
incorporation in December 2006.
Long-Term Incentive Plans. As
of December 31, 2008, we had no group life, health, hospitalization, or medical
reimbursement or relocation plans in effect. Further, we had no pension plans or
plans or agreements which provide compensation on the event of termination of
employment or change in control of us.
Employment Contracts and Termination
of Employment. We do not anticipate that we will enter into any
employment contracts with any of our employees. We have no plans or arrangements
in respect of remuneration received or that may be received by our executive
officers to compensate such officers in the event of termination of employment
(as a result of resignation or retirement).

respect to securities. In accordance with Securities and Exchange
Commission rules, shares of our common stock which may be acquired upon exercise
of stock options or warrants which are currently exercisable or which become

Item 13. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence.
Related
party transactions.
In
December 2006, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to Timothy Neely,
who was our founder and our officer and director at inception. These
shares were issued in exchange for cash of $5,000, or $0.005 per
share.
Santana
Martinez, one of our directors, provides office space to us at no charge. Our
financial statements will reflect, as occupancy costs, the fair market value of
that space, which is approximately $150 per month. We treat the usage of the
office space as additional paid-in capital and charge the estimated fair value
rent of $150 per month to operations. We recorded total rent expense of $1,800
for the year ended December 31, 2008.
On
December 5, 2006, we executed three unsecured promissory notes in exchange for
$20,000 from Timothy Neely, our former officer, former director and principal
shareholder, $70,000 from Ryan Neely, one of our principal shareholders, and
$20,000 from Michael Muellerleile, one of our principal shareholders,
respectively. The notes bear interest at 8% and were due upon demand,
no later than March 5, 2007. As of March 21, 2007, Timothy Neely and
Michael Muellerleile each agreed to convert their notes into 80,000 shares of
our common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. Both Mr. Neely and
Mr. Muellerleile agreed to forgive any interest due pursuant to the notes. As of
March 21, 2007, Ryan Neely agreed to convert $20,000 of his note into 80,000
shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. We repaid
the balance of the note, $50,000, to Mr. Neely and he agreed to forgive any
interest due pursuant to the note.
We
believe that each report transaction and relationship is on terms that are at
least as fair to us as would be expected if those transactions were negotiated
with third parties.
There
have been no other related party transactions, or any other transactions or
relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation
S-B.
With
regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any
and all related party transactions, including, but not limited to, the
following:
-
disclose such transactions in prospectuses where required;
-
disclose in any and all filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, where required;
-
obtain disinterested directors consent; and
-
obtain shareholder consent where required.
Director
Independence. Members of our Board of Directors are not
independent as that term is defined by defined in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the
Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.
Item
14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

December 31, 2008 and 2007 for professional services rendered by the principal

by a separate accountant for consulting services in preparation for the annual
audit and quarterly reviews of the financial statements. For the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2007, we were billed a total of $5,675 by a separate
