 Explanatory Notes
 

In this Annual Report on Form 10-K, Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. is sometimes referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us” and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is sometimes referred to as the “SEC”.

PART I

Item 1.  Business.

Background

Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc., an operating company, was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on February 25, 2008.

Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc.  has never declared bankruptcy, has never been in receivership, and has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since becoming incorporated, Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations.  Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. is not a blank check registrant as that term is defined in Rule 419(a)(2) of Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933, since it has a specific business plan or purpose and is currently operational. Since our inception, we have been engaged in business activities, including researching the industry, developing our advertising platforms, performing due diligence regarding potential customers most suitable for our Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. services and identifying future business platforms.

Currently, Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. has two officers and directors who have assumed responsibility for all planning, development and operational duties. Other than the officers and directors, there are no employees at the present time.  We do anticipate hiring employees when the need arises.

Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. has no intention to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company nor does management intend to use the Company, once reporting as a vehicle for a private Company to become a reporting company.  We may pursue strategic acquisitions that compliment our current business model within the advertising industry which may allow us to expand our activities and capabilities
.
Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc.’s fiscal year end is December 31.

Business of Issuer

Our services are in the U.S. under the brand name Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc.  We have implemented the Phase 1 build out of our business by providing consumers a simplified way of managing their credit.  Although we are a development stage Company, we currently generate minimal revenues from operations.  Our services, while not technically difficult to provide, must be continually developed to provide our clients the most current platforms. By using our proprietary software system, a client can perform affordable credit management with an automated process and clearly understand the credit scoring (FICO) system currently used the country.
 
In addition, we are offering affiliate websites that will give affiliates a custom home page for them to use as a portal for their customers. This is an excellent profit center and gives us high retention for those affiliates.

Our technology will focus initially on two channels:

 
Retail.  End users who would traditionally have to buy a kit or hire a credit management specialist to do this for them. The drawback to most self-help methods is that it usually doesn’t work, and in some cases makes the situation worse. Our software, along with video tutorials, makes it easy for a client to succeed. The process is the same for everyone, why would you pay hundreds or thousands if you could do it yourself for minimal expense.

 
Wholesale.  Those who wish to offer as a complimentary service to existing and potential clients to close more sales in their particular business -- from real estate, automotive, loan originators, boat and RV facilities, to insurance professionals. All in an effort to build a client network of profitable sales.

Industry Background
 
The number of Americans with bad credit has risen sharply since 2007, with more than 45 million now affected by a negative credit history( scores below 599 ), according to a July 2010 study by FICO (htpp://www.creditscoring.com/twoandtwo/fall//). The increase reflects a spike in delinquencies on home loans and credit cards by middle-class Americans.  The company did not create the aforementioned website, however, we deem the information reliable and accurate in regards to the current credit scoring tables of Americans today.
 
The credit management business consists of thousands of smaller firms, organizations and individual consultants for everyone of the few dozen well-known companies. There are currently thousands of companies in the U.S. offering credit management and debt elimination services. credit management participants range from major consultants to thousands of individuals.
 
Due to widespread abuses, the Federal Trade Commission recently approved a rule (July 29, 2010, taking effect in October 2010) which makes it very hard for companies to pitch their business by advertising dubious claims related to their success rates. Among others, it  prevents them from charging upfront fees.
 
We would like to emphasize here that we are not in the business of settling debts on behalf of clients, nor collecting upfront fees as a partial payment for service rendered or to be rendered in the future. We merely sell a product that involves a process to challenge information on credit reports, which may be wrong. The client is the one using the software to assist themselves.

Our Services
We offer a proprietary software platform which allows customers to monitor and manage their credit from the privacy of their own homes.  They can sign up from their home or office via the Internet and manage their credit. The technology is unique in the industry and offers a reminder service and prompts the customer through the entire process.
 
Our web-based platform has been put through numerous tests by Contata, our software partner.  Contata ran thousands of trials using real people as mock clients going through the whole process. These thorough and comprehensive tests resulted in our current glitch-free platform, which can operate with thousands of clients at the same time and it can be scaled to any dimension if required.  Our services include the following:

 
The customer is provided with everything they need, that can be provided over the Internet, to manage their credit. This service is offered at a price that cannot be matched by anyone operating a traditional credit management firm because of the need for employees.

 
 Our new phase II software, TurnScor / TurnScor Pro creates your own personalized home page and organizes your credit profile which is updated in real time and is accessible 24/7.  The three major credit bureaus are hoping you get distracted, dejected, or simply give up and settle for a sub-par credit score. This means that credit card companies, banks and mortgage lenders can charge you a higher rate of interest, costing you thousands of dollars in wealth building capabilities

 
The wholesale division (ACT) also offers the processing of credit management to other firms that wish to offer this service or for those that do offer this service. ACT will increase their profit and reduce overhead.

 
We also offer private label websites allowing customers to use their store front to offer our services. In addition, we offer consulting services.

   

The Market
 TurnScor / TurnScor Pro will be focusing initially on the general consumer market and on any company that bases the majority of its sales through their customers credit such as mortgage companies, real estate companies and auto and marine dealers.

We will also market heavily to large organizations who can offer ACT as a service to their members such as unions, non-profits, churches, etc. Part of our marketing will be to the general consumer as it is our largest market it is also the most difficult and expensive to reach.

Improving FICO scores by using our software will necessarily take some time, which will pass anyway. There are millions of individuals who currently have no credit buying power but who will once the economy improves. By buying our service now, they will save time, and as soon as their buying power is restored, they will be able to buy on credit.

We have created an ebook as well as video tutorials which explain the credit management process and also help to sell the online software component. This ebook will give the consumer added value to their purchase and give us an additional opportunity to up sell them for added services in the process.

Because exposure, response and overall efficiency of Internet media are easier to track than traditional off-line media – through the use of web analytics for instance – Internet credit management can offer a greater sense of accountability for clients.  
Marketers and their clients are becoming aware of the need to measure the collaborative effects of marketing (i.e., how the Internet affects in-store sales) rather than siloing each advertising medium. The effects of multi-channel marketing can be difficult to determine, but are an important part of ascertaining the value of media campaigns.
 
Marketing Strategy
 
Our core marketing strategy will consist of business to business communications. From small to large business all across the country, we have started to generate revenue in all of our vertical markets. The automotive industry is going to be our first large scale opportunity, followed by real estate, insurance, and mortgage. Large corporations looking for employee benefits could also take advantage of our software in an effort to improve efficiencies and employee morale.
 
Networking through social media is the future. A product needs a media to spread the word. This can be achieved very efficiently using social media by communicating with an ever expanding number of potential clients, answering their questions, promoting new features, getting feedback, criticism and kudos as well as suggestions. Some of those hundreds of millions of individuals active in social media may become our best, unpaid marketing agents

ACT together with our technology partner, Contata, will be expanding revenue streams through social networking. We firmly believe that this is where the next technology revolution resides.
 
Through additional research and looking at current marketing strategies we have determined it would not be a wise use of funds to do an infomercial or high production video as it is cost prohibitive.

Search Engine Optimization and branding our product with blogging, video blogging and article submission will be used in conjunction with our Facebook advertising efforts driving people to either a contact up opt-in or weekly Facebook marketing list.

Direct selling will also be used to warm up markets and referrals to realtors, lenders and auto dealers.

 
Competition
 
Competition in the credit management industry is growing however, we believe we separate ourselves from other credit management companies in that we provide our platform on a wholesale basis and our methodology and process is free to the end users under our business model.  Some of the largest credit repair companies include Lexington Law, Sky Blue Credit, DSI Solutions, MSI Credit Solutions and Credit Assistance Network.  Many of our competitors are larger and have greater financial resources than we do. Accordingly, we must rely on our innovative, proprietary software platform to gain market share in the industry.


Government Regulation

Current governmental regulations in place are geared toward protecting consumers’ rights and privacy. As a result, we have put into place safeguards for online marketing campaigns pertaining to: Trademarks, Copyrights  and Privacy.  In addition, online marketing via email requires compliance with the federal CAN SPAM act.  The CAN SPAM Act regulates the way email campaigns are conducted.  The Company’s operations are not directly affected by this Act because a third party company will be contracted to implement such a campaign.  Individuals have the ability to opt in or opt out in connection with the receipt of such promotional material.   Other than regulations incidental to all business, the Company is not subject to any particular government regulation that would or could materially impact the Company’s business.   The costs associated with these requirements add to our cost of services provided.

Item 7.  Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with (i) our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and  December 31, 2012 together with the notes to these financial statements; and (ii) the section entitled “Business” that appears elsewhere in this report.  The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this report. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report.  Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

The statements in this report include forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations and beliefs and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations.  You should not rely upon these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events because we cannot assure you that the events or circumstances reflected in these statements will be achieved or will occur.  You can identify a forward-looking statement by the use of the forward-terminology, including words such as “may”, “will”, “believes”, “anticipates”, “estimates”, “expects”, “continues”, “should”, “seeks”, “intends”, “plans”, and/or words of similar import, or the negative of these words and phrases or other variations of these words and phrases or comparable terminology.  These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things: our sales, results of operations and anticipated cash flows; capital expenditures; depreciation and amortization expenses; sales, general and administrative expenses; our ability to maintain and develop relationship with our existing and potential future customers;  and, our ability to maintain a level of investment that is required to remain competitive.  Many factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: variability of our revenues and financial performance; risks associated with technological changes; the acceptance of our products in the marketplace by existing and potential customers; disruption of operations or increases in expenses due to our involvement with litigation or caused by civil or political unrest or other catastrophic events; general economic conditions, government mandates and conditions in the advertising industry in particular; and, the continued employment of our key personnel and other risks associated with competition.

For a discussion of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements see the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this item of this report and the other risks and uncertainties that are set forth elsewhere in this report or detailed in our other Securities and Exchange Commission reports and filings.  We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, our management disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview

We are an operational company, incorporated February 25, 2008.We have generated limited revenues and expect to generate increased revenues in the foreseeable future.  See “Description of Business” contained herein.

Since our SEC effective date on October 27, 2011 ACT has successfully launched its new phase II software platform, TurnScor and TurnScor Pro, going after both the retail and wholesale vertical markets.
 
We have successfully embarked on a national Search Engine Optimization ( SEO ) program using GOOGLE keywords for the 50 largest metropolitan areas around the country.  See Below

http://turnscor.com/Illinois
http://turnscor.com/credit_score_Houston

We are still securing additional funding ( investors ) as we grow our operations and build a BRAND NAME with TurnScor in the various markets around the country.
 
Our Officers and Directors are responsible for our managerial and organizational structure which will include preparation of disclosure and accounting controls under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. When these controls are implemented, they will be responsible for the administration of the controls. Should they not have sufficient experience, they may be incapable of creating and implementing the controls which may cause us to be subject to sanctions and fines by the Securities and Exchange Commission which ultimately could cause you to lose your investment.
 
Since incorporation, for the year ended the Company has financed its operations through private investment.  We will continue to raise expansion capital through private placement or debt financing.  For the year ended December 31, 2013, we had revenues of  $45,476 and had total expenses of  $254,025 as compared to revenues of $24,177 and expenses of $198,898 for the period December 31, 2012.  For the year ended December 31, 2013  we had net loss of  ($208,549)as compared to net loss of   ($174,121) for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Results of Operations
 
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company reported an increase in revenues compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.

To date, the Company has successfully implemented its business plan and is attempting to secure additional funding to continue the expansion process. Management believes there is a current trend for increased advertising and web development related services based upon recent increased corporate profits.   Most businesses rely on advertising of some sort to increase their respective revenue models.  Web development and on-line marketing services are the Company’s primary sources of revenue and management expects these numbers to increase as economic growth increases.

The Company’s ability to expand operations is somewhat dependent upon capital to hire additional sales representatives without additional capital. If ACT does not produce sufficient cash flow to support its operations over the next 12 months, the Company will need to raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash in order to continue as a going concern.  There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. ACT cannot assure any investor that, if needed, sufficient financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms.
 
Advanced Credit Technologies  management may incur software development costs within the next 12 months.

Advanced Credit Technologies currently does not own any significant plant or equipment that it would seek to sell in the near future.  

Advanced Credit Technologies management anticipates hiring employees or independent contractors over the next 12 months as needed. Currently, the Company believes the services provided by its officers and directors appear sufficient at this time.

The Company has no plans to seek a business combination with another entity in the foreseeable future, however, may entertain strategic acquisitions in the marketing and advertising sector which compliment its business plan.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe we need to raise additional capital to supplement our business expansions.  The Company’s minimum capital requirements for the next twelve (12) months is $150,000.  With current revenues, the Company is able to continue business operations and with $150,000, the Company will be able to implement its expansion model.   Any funding received over and above the estimated  $150,000 will accelerate the implementation of our expansion primarily by enabling us to hire additional sales representatives and to pay marketing and software development costs.   The Company plans to raise these funds through either debt or equity financing.

Impact of Inflation
 
We believe that the rate of inflation has had negligible effect on us.  We believe we can absorb most, if not all, increased non-controlled operating costs by operating our Company in the most efficient manner possible.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
 
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities for the period ended December 31, 2013.  Operating expenditures during the period covered by this report include general and administrative costs (See “Financial Statements). 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities
 
We made no investments for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
 
We have financed our operations from the issuance of equity securities and shareholder notes.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012  through for the year ended December 31, 2013  of $191,700,  which relates to the sale of shares of common stock to shareholders in private transactions exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 504 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, debt conversion to stock and $100,000 in shareholder loan notes.

Intangible Assets

There were no intangible assets during the period December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2013.

Material Commitments
 
In October of 2013 ACRT entered into a joint marketing venture with Capstone Bank Card, Inc. a California Corporation to build a stand alone TurnScor Pre-Paid Master Card platform to enhance our marketability within the under-banked and credit challenged segments of the overall market. Our initial marketing efforts have identified another opportunity to market our TurnScor software, in conjunction with Capstone ( 30 years in merchant processing ) our initial funding efforts have begun and our platform is now under construction. Our plan is to launch early in the 2nd quarter of 2015. Recent studies show that there are around 45-50 million Americans who can't access traditional banking sectors and our TurnScor Master Card Platform will assist this segment to reduce their expenses and rebuild their credit profiles.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
  
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
 
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We have no cash equivalents.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Intangible Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. There was no impairment loss for the years ending December 31, 2012 through years end December 31, 2013.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes as outlined in ASC 740 “Income Taxes”, which was previously Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers that the carrying amount of financial instruments, including accounts payable, approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Share Based Payments
(included in ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”)

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees or independent contractors are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, or “SAB 107”. SAB 107 expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff's views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SFAS No. 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods. On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R). Companies may elect to apply this statement either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under SFAS 123.

The Company has fully adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant as the fair value of the share-based payments. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the share-based payments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements.  The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are not subject to risks related to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
 
Our functional currency is the United States dollar. We do not transact our business in other currencies. As a result, we are not subject to exposure from movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

 
Stockholders and Board of Directors
Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc.

 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc., (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended, and the period from inception (February 25, 2008) to December 31, 2013.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audit 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. 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 by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc., (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from inception (February 25, 2008) to December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered a loss from operations and is in the development stage. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter are also discussed in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ADVANCED CREDIT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 and 2012
 
 
Note 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Organization
 
Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. ("ACTI" or the "Company") was incorporated in Nevada in February 2008.  The Company is in the development stage and provides a state of the art credit management platform that is a web based delivery system.  Industries that benefit from the Company's technology include realtors, auto dealers and loan originators.

 
Revenue Recognition
 
In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenues streams of the Company:
 
Revenue is recognized at the time the product is delivered or services are performed.  Provision for sales returns are estimated based on the Company's historical return experience.  Revenue is presented net of returns.
 
Fair Value Measurements
 
For certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, interest payable, advances payable and notes payable, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.
 
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”  ASC 820-10 defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value  measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures.  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Fair Value Measurements (continued)
 
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company did not identify any other non-recurring assets and liabilities that are required to be presented in the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC 815.
 
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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Segment Information
 
The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, "Segment Reporting".  The Company currently operates in a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.
 
Net Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic net (loss) income per common share is calculated using the weighted average common shares outstanding during each reporting period.  Diluted net (loss) income per common share adjusts the weighted average common shares for the potential dilution that could occur if common stock equivalents (convertible debt and preferred stock, warrants, stock options and restricted stock shares and units) were exercised or converted into common stock.  There were no common stock equivalents at December 31, 2013.
 
Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences related to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes at each year end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  A valuation allowance is recognized when, based on the weight of all available evidence, it is considered more likely than not that all, or some portion, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Income tax expense is the sum of current income tax plus the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Note 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Income Taxes (continued)
 
ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires a company to first determine whether it is more likely than not (which is defined as a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits as of the reporting date, assuming that taxing authorities will examine the position and have full knowledge of all relevant information.  A tax position that meets this more likely than not threshold is then measured and recognized at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely to be realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation.  ASC 718 requires all share-based compensation payments to be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value using an option pricing model.  ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates.
 
Equity instruments granted to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505, Equity.  The final measurement date for the fair value of equity instruments with performance criteria is the date that each performance commitment for such equity instrument is satisfied or there is a significant disincentive for non-performance.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Recent Pronouncements
 
There are no recent accounting pronouncements that apply to the Company.

    (39 ) %

Note 7.  BASIS OF REPORTING
 
The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
 
The Company has experienced a loss from operations during its development stage as a result of its investment necessary to achieve its operating plan, which is long-range in nature.  For the period from February 25, 2008 (inception) to December 31, 2013, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $904,000.  In addition, the Company has no significant assets or revenue generating operations.
 
The Company currently does not have sufficient cash to sustain itself for the next 12 months, and will require additional funding in order to execute its plan of operations and to continue as a going concern.  To meet its cash needs, management expects to raise capital through a private placement offering.  In the event that this funding does not materialize, certain stockholders have agreed, orally, to loan, on a non-interest bearing demand basis, sufficient funds to maintain the Company's operations for the next 12 months.
 
The 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 possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 Item 9.  Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our fourth fiscal quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management of is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and financial officer and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 
·
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
 
 
28

 

 
·
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and


 
·
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2013.  In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  The COSO framework is based upon five integrated components of control: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communications and ongoing monitoring.

Based on the assessment performed, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, for the year ending December 31, 2013, is effective and provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of its financial reporting and the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Further, management has not identified any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting for the yeat ending December 31, 2013.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Conflict of Interest
The current officers and directors of the Company currently devote full-time to the Company.  If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such person may face a conflict in selecting between our business interest and their other business interests.  The policy of the Board is that any personal business or corporate opportunity incurred by an officer or director of ACT must be examined by the Board and turned down by the Board in a timely basis before an officer or director can engage or take advantage of a business opportunity which could result in a conflict of interest.
 
None of the following parties has, since the date of incorporation, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with the Company or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us:
 
 
·
The Officers and Directors;
  
·
Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a director;
 
·
Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to the outstanding shares of common stock;
 
·
Any relative or spouse of any of the foregoing persons who have the same house as such person.
