SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This annual report on Form 10-K and other publicly available documents, including the documents incorporated herein by reference, contain, and our officers and representatives may from time to time make, “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend”, “likely,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” “will” and similar references to future periods actions or results. Examples of forward-looking statements include our prospects for one or more future material transactions, potential sources of financing, and expenses for future periods.

 

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.

 

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this annual report on Form 10-K is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

PART I

 

Item 1. Business.

 

General

 

FCCC, Inc. (OTC.QB “FCIC”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Connecticut on May 6, 1960 under the name The First Connecticut Small Business Investment Company. The Company changed its name to The First Connecticut Capital Corporation on January 27, 1993, and then to FCCC, Inc. on June 4, 2003. The Company maintains its principal executive offices at 3502 Woodview Trace, Suite 200, Indianapolis, Indiana, Telephone Number 317-860-8210. FCCC is authorized to issue 22,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value. The Company had 3,461,022 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at March 31, 2015.

 

The Company has had limited operations since June 30, 2003 and is a “shell company” as defined in Rule 13b-2 of the Exchange Act. Such operations consist of a search for appropriate transactions such as a merger, acquisition, reverse merger or other business combination with an operating business or other appropriate financial transaction. See “Current Business” below.

 

Change of Control

 

On June 27, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Frederick L. Farrar, LFM Investments, Inc., Chafre, LLC, Charles E. Lanham and Daniel R. Loftus (collectively, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of 1,900,000 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock for aggregate cash consideration equal to $380,000. The Shares represent approximately 54.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of this Information Statement. The sale closed on July 11, 2014.

 

In connection with the entry into the Purchase Agreement, on June 27, 2014, our Board of Directors elected each of Frederick L. Farrar, Daniel R. Loftus and Fred J. Merritt to serve as directors of the Company effective as of the later of (a) 10 days after the mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders and (b) a “closing” under the Purchase Agreement (such event, the “Change of Control”). Separately, each of our then current directors and officers resigned from all positions with our Company, also effective as of the Change of Control.

 

Current Business

 

Since June 2003, the Company’s operations consist of a search for a merger, acquisition, reverse merger or a business transaction opportunity with an operating business or other financial transaction; however, there can be no assurance that this plan will be successfully implemented. Until a transaction is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly during this period we do not expect to achieve sufficient income to offset our operating expenses, resulting in operating losses that may require us to use and thereby reduce our limited cash balance. Until we compete a merger, reverse merger or other financial transaction, and unless interest rates increase dramatically, we expect to incur a loss of between $15,000 to $18,000 for the first quarter and thereafter of between $10,000 to $12,000 per quarter. The increase in first quarter expenses relates to a Company audit and tax return. At this time, the Company has no arrangements or understandings with respect to any potential merger, acquisition, reverse merger or business combination candidate pursuant to which it may become an operating company.

 

Opportunities may come to FCCC’s attention from various sources, including its management, its stockholders, professional advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and others who may present unsolicited proposals. At this time, FCCC has no plans, understandings, agreements, or commitments with any individual or entity to act as a finder in regard to any business opportunities for it. While it is not currently anticipated that the Company will engage unaffiliated professional firms specializing in business acquisitions, reorganizations or other such transactions, such firms may be retained if such arrangements are deemed to be in the best interest of the Company. Compensation to a finder or business acquisition firm may take various forms, including one-time cash payments, payments involving issuance of securities (including those of the Company), or any combination of these or other compensation arrangements. Consequently, the Company is currently unable to predict the cost of utilizing such services.

 

The Company has not restricted its search to any particular business, industry, or geographical location. In evaluating a potential transaction, the Company analyzes all available factors and makes a determination based on a composite of available facts, without reliance on any single factor.

 

 
4

 

It is not possible at this time to predict the nature of a transaction in which the Company may participate. Specific business opportunities would be reviewed as well as the respective needs and desires of the Company and the legal structure or method deemed by management to be suitable would be selected. In implementing a structure for a particular transaction, the Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, tender offer, joint venture, license, purchase and sale of assets, or purchase and sale of stock, or other arrangement the exact nature of which cannot now be predicted. Additionally, the Company may act directly or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation or other form of organization. Implementing such structure may require the merger, consolidation or reorganization of FCCC with other business organizations and there is no assurance that the Company would be the surviving entity. In addition, the present management and stockholders of the Company may not have control of a majority of the voting shares of FCCC following reorganization or other financial transaction. As part of such a transaction, some or all of FCCC’s existing directors may resign and new directors may be appointed. The Company’s operations following its consummation of a transaction will be dependent on the nature of the transaction. There may also be various risks inherent in the transaction, the nature and magnitude of which cannot be predicted.

 

The Company may also be subject to increased governmental regulation following a transaction; however, it is not possible at this time to predict the nature or magnitude of such increased regulation, if any.

 

The Company does not have any arrangements with banks or financial institutions with respect to the availability of financing in the future.

 

The payment of any cash distributions is subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. At this time the Company has no plans to pay any additional cash distributions in the foreseeable future.

 

Competition

 

FCCC is in direct competition with many other entities in its efforts to locate a suitable transaction. Included in the competition are business development companies, SPAC’s, venture capital firms, small business investment companies, venture capital affiliates of industrial and financial companies, broker-dealers and investment bankers, management consultant firms and private individual investors. Many of these entities possess greater financial resources and are able to assume greater risks than those which FCCC could consider. Many of these competing entities also possess significantly greater experience and contacts than FCCC’s management. Moreover, FCCC also competes with numerous other companies similar to it for such opportunities.

 

Employees and Consultants

 

The Company currently has two executive officers. Frederick Farrar serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Daniel R. Loftus serves as Secretary.

 

Management of the Company expects to use consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary, and it is not expected that FCCC will have any full-time or other employees, except as may be the result of completing a transaction.

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

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the selected historical consolidated financial data and consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.

 

General

 

The Company has limited operations and is actively seeking merger, reverse merger, acquisition or business combination opportunities with an operating business or other financial transaction opportunities. Until a transaction is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly, during such period, the Company does not expect to achieve sufficient income to offset its operating expenses, resulting in operating losses that may require the Company to use and thereby reduce its cash balance. For further information on the Company’s plan of operation and business, see Item I, Current Business. Until the Company completes a merger, reverse merger or other financial transaction, and unless interest rates increase dramatically, the Company expects to continue to incur a loss of between $15,000 to $18,000 for the first quarter and thereafter of between $10,000 to $12,000 per quarter. The increase in first quarter expenses relates to a Company audit and tax return.

 

On June 27, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Frederick L. Farrar, LFM Investments, Inc., Chafre, LLC, Charles E. Lanham and Daniel R. Loftus (collectively, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of 1,900,000 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock for aggregate cash consideration equal to $380,000. The Shares represent approximately 54.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of this Information Statement. The sale closed on July 11, 2014.

 

Results Of Operations And Financial Condition

 

During the year ended March 31, 2015, the Company had a loss from operations of $72,000. The loss is attributable to the operating, administrative and legal expenses incurred during the year. During the year ended March 31, 2014, the loss from operations was $43,000.

 

The increase in the loss for the year ended March 31, 2015 is attributable to:

 

(A) An increase in legal, operating and administrative expenses of $29,000 in the year ended March 31, 2015. This increase is primarily due to additional amounts expended with respect to the Purchase Agreement, which includes an increase of $12,000 in consulting fees payable under the consulting agreement entered into in conjunction with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the newly enacted OTCQB listing fee of $7,500 and adjustments to accounts payable, accrued expenses and prepaids.

 

(B) Taxes paid in the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were $-0- in both years.

 

 
8

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2015 was $336,000 as compared to $28,000 at March 31, 2014. The increase is attributable to the proceeds from the sale of shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Company had cash on hand at March 31, 2015 of $337,000 as compared to $42,000 at March 31, 2014. The increase in cash on hand is attributable to the proceeds from the sale of shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Company does not have any arrangements with banks or financial institutions with respect to the availability of financing in the future.

 

The payment of any cash distribution or dividend is subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. At this time the Company has no plans to pay any cash distributions or dividends in the foreseeable future.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm – Marcum LLP

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

FCCC, Inc.

Indianapolis, Indiana

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of FCCC, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FCCC, Inc., as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2015

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

Company Operations:

 

The accompanying financial statements of FCCC, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

 

The Company has limited operations and is actively seeking merger, acquisition or business combination opportunities with an operating business or other financial transaction opportunities. Until a transaction is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly, during such period, the Company does not expect to achieve sufficient income to offset its operating expenses, resulting in operating losses that may require the Company to use and thereby reduce its cash balance.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

 

The Company has defined cash as including cash on hand and cash in interest bearing and non-interest bearing operating bank accounts. Highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company maintains cash balances at a financial institution. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 at such institution. At various times throughout the year, cash balances may exceed FDIC limits. At March 31, 2015 the amount uninsured was $87,181.

 

Estimates:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.

 

Dividends:

 

The Company may or may not pay cash dividends or make other distributions in the future depending on a number of factors. The Company may, however, pay a cash dividend or other distribution as part of a merger, acquisition, reverse merger or business combination transaction or if the Board of Directors deems it advisable for the benefit of all shareholders at any time. 

 

Income Taxes:

 

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes as prescribed by the FASB Accounting Standard Codification, (“ASC”), 740 (Income Taxes). This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax return and financial statement reporting basis of certain assets and liabilities.

 

As required by ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes”, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Management does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions which would have a material impact on the financial statements. The Company has elected to include interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. To date, the Company has not recorded any interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

 

Advertising:

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense included in operating expenses was $0 and $850 for the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.

 

Earnings Per Common Share:

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 260. Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS) is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted. Net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Basic and diluted loss per common share was calculated using the following number of shares:

 

    March 31  
    2015     2014  
         

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding

 

2,930,063

Revenue and Cost Recognition:

Common Stock Warrants:

 

None outstanding.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk:

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash on deposit with financial institutions.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 825 “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, which requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which the determination of fair value is practicable. The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents) approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

NOTE 3 - STOCK OPTIONS:

 

The Company had one stock option plan during previous years. During the year ended March 31, 2014, this option plan expired.

 

Options granted pursuant to the 2002 Plan:

 

On October 3, 2003, options to purchase 45,000 shares were granted under the 2002 Plan at an exercise price of $1.05 per share. During October 2013, all remaining options expired unexercised.

 

The weighted-average remaining contractual life of the outstanding options is “None”.

 

During fiscal 2015 and 2014, no new share based payments were granted, and no compensation expense was recognized.

 

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK:

 

The Company leased office space on a month-to-month basis at a rate of $500 per month. Rent expense totaled $2,500 for the year ended March 31, 2015. The month-to-month tenancy was cancelled in August, 2014.

 

Management of the Company expects to use consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary, and it is not expected that FCCC, Inc. will have any full-time or other employees, except as may be the result of completing a transaction.

NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES:

 

The Company’s deferred tax asset relates to net operating losses that may be carried forward to future years. At March 31, 2015, the Company has available net operating losses of $654,868 and $471,821 for federal and state income taxes, respectively, that expire from 2019 to 2035 For the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, approximately $0 and $81,000 in federal net operating losses have expired, respectively. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carry-forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry-forward are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. The net change in the valuation allowance resulted in a decrease of $71,463 and a decrease of $10,193 for the years ended March 31, 2015, and 2014, respectively. The Company’s net operating losses were limited by Internal Revenue Code Section 382 by $297,548.

 

The Company’s deferred tax asset and valuation allowance as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2015, the Company’s income tax returns generally remain open for examination for three years from the date filed with each taxing jurisdiction.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer who is also the Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Sections 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period reported in this annual report (the “Evaluation Date”), concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company is accumulated and would be made known to them by others as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Report of Management’s on Internal Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal controls over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also the Company’s Principal Financial Officer, to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Internal controls over financial reporting including those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the Company’s transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurances that the Company’s transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) 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 Company’s 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015 and concluded that such internal controls are effective. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Controls – Integrated 1992 Framework.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

During the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Frederick L. Farrar has served as Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer and as a Director of the Company since July 2014. Previously, he served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Klipsch Group, Inc., from 1990 to 2013.

After the acquisition, Mr. Farrar continued to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Klipsch Group, Inc. until 2014. Mr. Farrar is a founder and served as President and Chief Operating Officer of Windrose Medical Properties Trust (NYSE:WRS) from 2002 to 2006. After its merger with Healthcare REIT, Inc. (NYSE:HCN), he served as Executive Vice President from 2006 to 2010. Other roles include President and Chief Financial Officer of Trading Company of America, LTD, a private company that operated retail jewelry locations under the business name “The Shane Company”, from 1992 to 1997; Chief Financial Officer of National Guest Homes Inc., a developer and operator of assisted living facilities, from 1990 to 1996; and Chief Financial Officer of Hospital Affiliates Development Corporation, a fee-based developer of hospitals and other medical facilities from 1990 through 2002. Prior to 1990, Mr. Farrar had an initial 10 year career as a fee-based financial advisor. Mr. Farrar is President and founder of Chafre LLC, a private investment-focused company that became a significant stockholder of the Company after the Change in Control, among other private entities. Mr. Farrar received a B.A. from St. Lawrence University in 1978 and a law degree from Syracuse University in 1980.

 

Daniel R. Loftus has served as Secretary and as a director of the Company since July 2014. Mr. Loftus previously served as Executive Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel of Windrose Medical Properties Trust (NYSE:WRS) from 2002 to 2006. After its merger with Health Care REIT, Inc.

Mr. Loftus has been engaged in the practice of law since 1976 with several law firms located in Nashville, Tennessee. Mr. Loftus received a B.A. from Wabash College in 1972 and a law degree from Vanderbilt University in 1975.

 

Fred J. Merritt has served as a director of the Company since July 2014. He has served as president and sole shareholder of LFM Investments, Inc. (“LFM”) since its formation in 1999. LFM has been active in the acquisition, ownership and management of companies engaged in various industries including manufacturing, electronics, bio-tech, printing, construction, finance, parking and staffing. Mr. Merritt has also served as chief executive officer, president, vice president of finance and sole shareholder of Riverside Mfg., LLC, a private specialized military supplier focused on wheeled tire vehicles and track vehicles, since 2002. Prior to 1999, he devoted ten years of his career in the corporate banking industry with a focus on closely held business acquisitions and valuations. Mr. Merritt served as an outside director for Bloomfield State Bank from 2007 to 2014, where he was a member of the Bank’s audit and loan committees. Mr. Merritt received a B.S. degree from Indiana University in 1989.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for establishing broad corporate policies and for overseeing our overall management. In addition to considering various matters which require board approval, the Board provides advice and counsel to, and ultimately monitors the performance of, our executive officer(s). All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Officers are elected to serve, subject to the discretion of the Board, until their successors are appointed. The Company has not held an annual meeting of stockholders since 2003.

 

 
22

 

Mr. Farrar is our Chief Executive Officer and leads our Board of Directors as Chairman. We have not designated a lead independent director. We believe that this structure is appropriate for the Company at this time. Specifically, we believe that the current leadership structure provides leadership and engagement while we seek and evaluate opportunities. Because we do not currently have any operations, we believe the potential risks of concentration of authority are outweighed by the efficiency of having the same person serve as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman.

 

One of the key functions of our Board of Directors is informed oversight of our Company’s risk management processes. Our Board administers its oversight functions primarily through monitoring and assessing risks through its full membership rather than through standing committees. Our audit committee is responsible for assessing significant financial risks and risks of compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

 

Director Independence

 

Based upon a review of the material relationships between our directors and our Company, we have determined that none of our directors are eligible for designation as “independent” directors. However, this information is provided for disclosure purposes only. Because we do not have shares listed for trading on any securities exchange, our Company is not required to have any independent directors on its Board of Directors, or any particular committee of the Board of Directors.

 

Committees of the Board

 

Audit Committee. Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee. The Committee meets with management and our independent auditors to determine the adequacy of internal controls and other financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee is composed of Daniel R. Loftus and Fred J. Merritt.

 

All of the members of the Audit Committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Our Board of Directors does not have a standing compensation committee or nominating committee. We believe this structure is appropriate in light of the Company’s current capital structure and level of operations.

 

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships among our directors and any of our executive officers.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than 5% of a registered class of FCCC’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Officers, directors and greater than 5% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish FCCC with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

 

To the best of our knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such forms furnished to it, or written representations that no other forms were required, FCCC believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 5% stockholders were complied with during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

 

Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

None of our directors are eligible to qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act. As the Company commences operations and adds independent directors to serve on its board, it expects to add one or more such persons who qualify as “audit committee financial expert.”

 

Code of Ethics

 

We do not currently have a code of ethics. We believe this approach is appropriate in light of the Company’s current capital structure and level of operations, but we expect to continue to evaluate the appropriateness of adopting a code of ethics as our Company continues to develop.

 

 
23

 

Communication to the Board of Directors

 

You may contact our Board of Directors or any director by mail addressed to the attention of our entire Board or the specific director identified by name or title, at FCCC, Inc., 3502 Woodview Trace, Suite 200, Indianapolis, Indiana 46268. All communications will be submitted to our Board or the specified director on a periodic basis.

Related Party Transactions

 

On July 11, 2014, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Bernard Zimmerman. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Zimmerman agreed to consult with the Company regarding the prior activities of the Company, acquisition and reverse merger or other corporate opportunities. Mr. Zimmerman was entitled to receive compensation of $2,000 per month. The agreement was set to expire July 11, 2015 and was terminable by either party on 30 days’ notice. The consulting agreement provided if the Company terminated the agreement on or prior to January 11, 2015, unless terminated as a result of Mr. Zimmerman’s breach of the agreement, the Company was to pay Mr. Zimmerman an amount equal to $12,000 reduced by any consulting fees previously paid to Mr. Zimmerman. On December 10, 2014, the Company provided 30 days written notice to Mr. Zimmerman terminating the consulting agreement effective January 11, 2015. Fees paid Mr. Zimmerman for the year ended March 31, 2015 were $12,000. There were no offsets to these fees.

 

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

 

On January 10, 2014, the Company was informed by its former independent registered public accounting firm, Braver P.C. (“Braver”), that Braver had combined its practice with Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), with Marcum being the surviving firm (the “Transaction”). As a result of the Transaction, on February 4, 2014, the Company officially engaged Marcum as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

The following tables summarize the aggregate fees billed by the Company’s current and former independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum, LLP and Braver P.C. for audit services for each of the last two fiscal years and for other services rendered to the Company in each of the last two fiscal years.
