These statements are based on management's beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Company set forth under the heading Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Forward-looking statements also include statements in which words such as expect, anticipate, intend, plan, believe, estimate, consider or similar expressions are used.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Company's future results and shareholder values may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
Our executive offices are located at 13070 Addison Road, Roswell, GA 30075, and our telephone number is 404-915-0570. Our website address is www.abcausa.com.
We may refer to ourselves in this document as "ABCA," "we," "us" or the Company.
The Company has not generated significant revenues from its planned principal operations. However, it cannot take advantage of being an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act because it had gone public prior to December 8, 2011.
Item 1.
BUSINESS
ABCA was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 12, 2009. At May 24, 2013, we had one employee, our founder and president, Edward A. Sundberg, who devotes the time to us that is necessary to complete projects and obtain additional ones.
ABCA is an early stage company and has no significant financial resources. We have not established or attempted to establish a source of equity or debt financing. Our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report emphasizing the uncertainty of our ability to remain a going concern.
Our mission is to provide strategic business planning and management consulting services to small companies. Our president, Mr. Sundberg has more than 20 years of experience providing these types of services and has written a book on the subject entitled When Did I Lose My Company?.
We anticipate that we will rely on one or a small number of engagements and clients for the indefinite future. There is no assurance that these clients will provide us with sufficient levels of revenue to generate profits or even to sustain operations.
Strategy
Our goal is to provide management consulting services to small and midsized businesses. Our advice will principally relate to corporate structure, personnel issues and marketing. In some instances, we may serve in the role of a corporate official at a client in order to design and implement a plan, while in other cases we will issue a written business plan to our client.
We will not concentrate on any particular industry or limit ourselves to any geographic area. If necessary, we will team with other consultants if an engagement requires knowledge or resources that we do not have.
We will use the contacts of our chairman, Edward A. Sundberg, to identify initial clients. Our founder has more than 20 years of experience in providing a variety of consulting services to clients. His experience includes:
·
Preparing detailed business plans for small and midsized businesses;
·
Assisting turnaround efforts;
·
Assisting companies operate in international environments;
·
Providing organizational services to small and large entities;
·
Assisting companies prepare for financings and acquisitions; and
·
Providing extensive human resource services.
3
Our approach is to focus on small and midsized companies that need to establish an effective management structure and would benefit from our broad range of business contacts. We will:
·
work with client executives to develop risk management and business performance strategies. Among the services we intend to provide are strategic consulting with regard to the design and structure of the finance function, particularly restructuring in turnaround situations, acquisition and post-merger integration. This process, which leverages the experience of our president, will help clients to align their companies resources and capabilities with their business objectives. Our services will also address pricing and yield management, billing, credit risk and collection effectiveness, lending and debt recovery.
·
work with clients to solve human performance issues that are crucial to their operational success, including recruiting and motivating key employees and management. We will work to provide human resources, knowledge management, and learning and performance management solutions that increase the efficiency and effectiveness of our clients employees and operations, while reducing recruiting and training costs.
We expect to function with a wide array of client situations and use independent subcontractors to assist in performing engagements.
To date, we have performed several consulting engagements. However, it appears that our efforts to seek and obtain engagements have been severely impacted by the economic environment that has been in place for the past several years.
Competition
Competition in our industry is intense and most of our competitors have greater financial and other resources than do we. Competition will come from a wide variety of consulting and accounting firms, many of which have more employees, finances and other resources and greater name recognition that do we. We intend to compete based on the reputation and contacts of our founder and the creative and practical approach to services that we offer. Our founder has more than 20 years of experience in providing a variety of consulting services to corporations.
No assurances can be given that our competitive strategy will be successful.
Intellectual Property
We have no patents or trademarks.
Employees
At May 24, 2013, we had one employee, our founder and president, Edward A. Sundberg, who devotes the time to us that is necessary to complete projects and obtain additional ones. Mr. Sundberg will continue to devote the time to us that is necessary for us to complete engagements, but may become involved with other ventures. Various aspects of engagements may be subcontracted to independent consultants.
Lindsay Chisholm, our director, is a lawyer and the daughter of Edward A. Sundberg. She may perform some work for us on subcontract basis.
There is no written employment contract or agreement.

Item 1A.
RISK FACTORS
If any of the following risks develop into actual events, then our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the market price of our common stock, if any, could decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.
Risks Related to the Business
ABCA has virtually no financial resources. Our independent registered auditors report includes an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
ABCA has virtually no financial resources. We have negative working capital and a net stockholders deficit at January 31, 2013. Our independent registered auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 that states that this lack of resources causes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. No assurances can be given that we will generate sufficient revenue or obtain necessary financing to continue as a going concern.
ABCA is and will continue to be completely dependent on the services of our founder and president, Edward A. Sundberg, the loss of whose services may cause our business operations to cease, and we will need to engage and retain qualified employees and consultants to further implement our strategy.
ABCAs operations and business strategy are completely dependent upon the knowledge and business connections of Edward A. Sundberg. He is under no contractual obligation to remain employed by us and experienced serious health problems in 2005. If he should choose to leave us for any reason or if he becomes ill and is unable to work for an extended period of time before we have hired additional personnel, our operations will likely fail. Even if we are able to find additional personnel, it is uncertain whether we could find someone who could develop our business along the lines described in this prospectus. We will fail without the services of Mr. Sundberg or an appropriate replacement(s).
We intend to acquire key-man life insurance on the life of Mr. Sundberg naming us as the beneficiary when and if we obtain the resources to do so and if he is insurable. We have not yet procured such insurance, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain such insurance in the future. Accordingly, it is important that we are able to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified and talented personnel and independent contractors.
Because of the early stage of our business operations, we face a high risk of business failure.
We were formed in January 2009. All of our efforts to date have related to developing our business plan and beginning business activities. These efforts have been hampered as a result of the economic conditions facing our potential clients throughout the period since our inception. Through January 31, 2013, our total revenues amounted to $22,907. We face a high risk of business failure.
Most of our competitors, which include large national consulting firms, have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we.
Most of our competitors, which include large national accounting and consulting firms, have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we. Many have sophisticated Websites and the ability to advertise in a wide variety of media. We will principally depend on the business contacts of our president and word of mouth. There are no assurances that our approach will be successful.
We may face damage to our professional reputation or legal liability if our future clients are not satisfied with our services.
As a consulting service firm, we will depend to a large extent on referrals and new engagements from our clients and will attempt to establish a reputation for highcaliber professional services and integrity to attract and retain clients. As a result, if a client is not satisfied with our services such lack of satisfaction may be more damaging to our business than it may be to other businesses. Moreover, if we fail to meet our obligations, we could be subject to legal liability or loss of client relationships. Our engagements will typically include provisions to limit our exposure to legal claims relating to our services, but these provisions may not protect us or may not be enforceable in all cases. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that we will either obtain or retain clients in the foreseeable future.
5
Our future engagements with clients may not be profitable.
When making proposals for engagements, we plan to estimate the costs and timing for completing the engagements with such estimates intended to reflect our best judgment. Any increased or unexpected costs or unanticipated delays in connection with the performance of these engagements, including delays caused by factors outside our control, could make these engagements less profitable or unprofitable, which would have an adverse effect on our profit margin.
In addition, as consultants, a client will most likely retain us on an engagementbyengagement basis, rather than under longterm contracts, and a substantial majority of our contracts and engagements, if any, may be terminated by the client with short notice and generally without significant penalty. Furthermore, because large client engagements may involve multiple engagements or stages, there is a risk that a client may choose not to retain us for additional stages of an engagement or that a client will cancel or delay additional planned engagements. These terminations, cancellations or delays could result from factors unrelated to our work product or the progress of the project, but could be related to business or financial conditions of the client or the economy generally. When contracts are terminated, we lose the associated revenues and we may not be able to eliminate associated costs in a timely manner.
There are significant potential conflicts of interest
Our key personnel (currently one person) are required to commit significant time to our affairs and, accordingly, these individual(s) (particularly our president) may have conflicts of interest in allocating management time among various business activities. In the course of other business activities, certain key personnel (particularly our president) may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to us, as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. As such, there may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
In an effort to resolve such potential conflicts of interest, we have entered into a written agreement with Mr. Sundberg specifying that any business opportunities that he may become aware of independently or directly through his association with us (as opposed to disclosure to him of such business opportunities by management or consultants associated with other entities) would be presented by him solely to us.
We cannot provide assurances that our efforts to eliminate the potential impact of conflicts of interest will be effective.
Edward A. Sundberg, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has no meaningful accounting or financial reporting education or experience and, accordingly, our ability to meet Exchange Act reporting requirements on a timely basis will be dependent to a significant degree upon others.
Edward A. Sundberg has no meaningful financial reporting education or experience. He is and will be heavily dependent on advisors and consultants. As such, there is risk about our ability to comply with all financial reporting requirements accurately and on a timely basis.
We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require us to incur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports. These costs could reduce or eliminate our ability to earn a profit.
We file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm is required to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel has to review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major effect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys. However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit.
We do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.
6
Our internal controls may be inadequate if we begin to grow, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the 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;
·
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/or 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.
Our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective if our operations begin to expand, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.
The costs of being a public company could result in us being unable to continue as a going concern.
As a public company, we have to comply with numerous financial reporting and legal requirements, including those pertaining to audits and internal control. The costs of this compliance could be significant. If our revenues do not increase and/or we cannot satisfy many of these costs through the issuance of our shares, we may be unable to satisfy these costs in the normal course of business which would result in our being unable to continue as a going concern.
Having only two directors limits our ability to establish effective independent corporate governance procedures and increases the control of our president.
We have only two directors, who are related to each other with Lindsay Chisholm being the daughter of Edward A. Sundberg. Accordingly, we cannot establish board committees comprised of independent members to oversee functions like compensation or audit issues. In addition, a tie vote of board members is decided in favor of the chairman, which gives him significant control over all corporate issues.
Until we have a larger board of directors that would include some independent members, if ever, there will be limited oversight of our presidents decisions and activities and little ability for minority shareholders to challenge or reverse those activities and decisions, even if they are not in the best interests of minority shareholders.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through issuance of additional shares of our common stock.
We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our board of directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized (74,000,000 shares) but unissued (63,800,000 shares). In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material.
7
The interests of shareholders may be hurt because we can issue shares of our common stock to individuals or entities that support existing management with such issuances serving to enhance existing managements ability to maintain control of our Company.
Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued common shares. Such issuances may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management and the interests of existing management which may not be the same as the interests of other shareholders. Our ability to issue shares without shareholder approval serves to enhance existing managements ability to maintain control of our Company.
Our articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability that may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.
Our Articles of Incorporation at Article VII provide for indemnification as follows: No director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer: (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law; or (ii) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Any repeal or modification of an Article by the stockholders of the Corporation shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation of the personal liability of a director or officer of the Corporation for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification.
We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with our activities, we will (unless in the opinion of our counsel, the matter has been settled by controlling precedent) submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question whether indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The legal process relating to this matter if it were to occur is likely to be very costly and may result in us receiving negative publicity, either of which factors is likely to materially reduce the market and price for our shares, if such a market ever develops.
Currently, there is no established public market for our securities, and there can be no assurances that any established public market will ever develop or that our common stock will be quoted for trading and, even if quoted, it is likely to be subject to significant price fluctuations.
To date, there has not been any established trading market for our common stock, and there is currently no established public market whatsoever for our securities. A market maker has filed an application with FINRA on our behalf so as to be able to quote the shares of our common stock on the OTCBB maintained by FINRA. There can be no assurance that the market makers application will be accepted by FINRA nor can we estimate as to the time period that the application will require. We are not permitted to file such application on our own behalf. If the application is accepted, there can be no assurances as to whether
(i)
any market for our shares will develop;
(ii)
the prices at which our common stock will trade; or
(iii)
the extent to which investor interest in us will lead to the development of an active, liquid trading market. Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders for investors.
If we become able to have our shares of common stock quoted on the OTCBB, we will then try, through a broker-dealer and its clearing firm, to become eligible with the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to permit our shares to trade electronically. If an issuer is not DTC-eligible, then its shares cannot be electronically transferred between brokerage accounts, which, based on the realities of the marketplace as it exists today (especially the OTCBB), means that shares of a company will not be traded (technically the shares can be traded manually between accounts, but this takes days and is not a realistic option for companies relying on broker dealers for stock transactions - like all the companies on the OTCBB). What this boils down to is that while DTC-eligibility is not a requirement to trade on the OTCBB, it is a necessity to process trades on the OTCBB if a companys stock is going to trade with any volume. There are no assurances that our shares will ever become DTC-eligible or, if they do, how long it will take.
8
In addition, our common stock is unlikely to be followed by any market analysts, and there may be few institutions acting as market makers for our common stock. Either of these factors could adversely affect the liquidity and trading price of our common stock. Until our common stock is fully distributed and an orderly market develops in our common stock, if ever, the price at which it trades is likely to fluctuate significantly. Prices for our common stock will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market for shares of our common stock, developments affecting our business, including the impact of the factors referred to elsewhere in these Risk Factors, investor perception of ABCA and general economic and market conditions. No assurances can be given that an orderly or liquid market will ever develop for the shares of our common stock.
Because of the anticipated low price of the securities being registered, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in these securities. Purchasers of our securities should be aware that any market that develops in our stock will be subject to the penny stock restrictions.
Any market that develops in shares of our common stock will be subject to the penny stock regulations and restrictions pertaining to low priced stocks that will create a lack of liquidity and make trading difficult or impossible.
The trading of our securities, if any, will be in the over-the-counter market which is commonly referred to as the OTCBB as maintained by FINRA. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of our securities.
Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us. It is likely that our shares will be considered to be penny stocks for the immediately foreseeable future. This classification severely and adversely affects any market liquidity for our common stock.
For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, sets forth:
·
the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and
·
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offerings and in secondary trading and commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Additionally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to engage in the above-referenced necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in any secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities, if and when our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our securities may decrease, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares, in all probability, will be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future and our shareholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.
9
The market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses that could adversely impact investors in our stock.
Company management believes that the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
·
Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
·
Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
·
"Boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by sales persons;
·
Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
·
Wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.
Any trading market that may develop may be restricted by virtue of state securities Blue Sky laws that prohibit trading absent compliance with individual state laws. These restrictions may make it difficult or impossible to sell shares in those states.
There is currently no established public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that any established public market will develop in the foreseeable future. Transfer of our common stock may also be restricted under the securities or securities regulations laws promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions, commonly referred to as Blue Sky laws. Absent compliance with such individual state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions. Because the securities recently registered have not been registered for resale under the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares and persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future, should be aware that there may be significant state blue sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to purchase the securities. These restrictions prohibit the secondary trading of our common stock. We currently do not intend to and may not be able to qualify securities for resale in at least 17 states which do not offer manual exemptions (or may offer manual exemptions but may not to offer one to us if we are considered to be a shell company at the time of application) and require shares to be qualified before they can be resold by our shareholders. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for our securities to be a limited one.
Our board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stockholders and with the ability to affect adversely stockholder voting power and perpetuate their control over us.
Our articles of incorporation allow us to issue shares of preferred stock without any vote or further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval, including large blocks of preferred stock. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock.
The ability of our president to control our business may limit or eliminate minority shareholders ability to influence corporate affairs.
Our president beneficially owns an aggregate of approximately 88.2% of our outstanding common stock. Because of his beneficial stock ownership, our president is in a position to continue to elect our board of directors, decide all matters requiring stockholder approval and determine our policies. The interests of our president may differ from the interests of other shareholders with respect to the issuance of shares, business transactions with or sales to other companies, selection of officers and directors and other business decisions. The minority shareholders would have no way of overriding decisions made by our president. This level of control may also have an adverse impact on the market value of our shares because our president may institute or undertake transactions, policies or programs that result in losses, may not take any steps to increase our visibility in the financial community and/or may sell sufficient numbers of shares to significantly decrease our price per share.
We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock at any time in the foreseeable future. The future payment of dividends directly depends upon our future earnings, capital requirements, financial requirements and other factors that our board of directors will consider. Since we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock, return on your investment, if any, will depend solely on an increase, if any, in the market value of our common stock.
10
Because we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, our stockholders have limited protection against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and American Stock Exchanges and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities that are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than legally required, we have not yet adopted these measures.
Because none of our directors are independent directors, we do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, these directors have the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.
We intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.
You may have limited access to information regarding our business because our obligations to file periodic reports with the SEC could be automatically suspended under certain circumstances.
We currently are trying to file all delinquent filings. However, our reporting obligations are automatically suspended by operation of statute under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since we have less than 300 shareholders and have not filed a registration statement on Form 8A. Since more than a year has passed since our registration statement became effective, we are no longer obligated to file periodic reports with the SEC and your access to our business information may be more restricted. We are also not be required to furnish proxy statements to security holders and our directors, officers and principal beneficial owners are not be required to report their beneficial ownership of securities to the SEC pursuant to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 until we have both 500 or more security holders and greater than $10 million in assets. This means that your access to information regarding our business will be limited.
For all of the foregoing reasons and others set forth herein, an investment in the Companys securities in any market which may develop in the future involves a high degree of risk. Any person considering an investment in such securities should be aware of these and other risk factors set forth in this Form 10-K.

Item 5.
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
We became subject to Securities Exchange Act Reporting Requirements in September 2010.
There is no current market for the shares of our common stock. No trading symbol has been assigned for our securities, and our securities have not been listed or quoted on any Exchange to date. There can be no assurance that a trading symbol will be assigned or that a liquid market will develop in the foreseeable future. Transfer of our common stock may also be restricted under the securities or blue sky laws of certain states and foreign jurisdictions. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investments and should be prepared to hold the common stock for an indefinite period of time.
We have never paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock and do not anticipate that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to apply any earnings to fund the development of our business. The purchase of shares of common stock is inappropriate for investors seeking current or near term income.
As of the close of business on May 24, 2013, there were 13 stockholders of record of our common stock, and 10,200,000 shares were issued and outstanding.
No underwriter participated in the issuance of our shares, and no underwriting discounts or commissions were paid to anyone.
The Company has never repurchased any of its equity securities.
Item 6.
SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
We are considered to be a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1), and, therefore, are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain matters discussed in this annual report on Form 10-K are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements contained in this annual report involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to:
·
our future operating results,
·
our business prospects,
·
our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties,
·
the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industry in which we are involved,
·
the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital, and
·
other factors identified in our filings with the SEC, press releases and other public communications.
These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as we believe," anticipate, expect, estimate or words of similar meaning. Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which are described in close proximity to such statements and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated as of the date of this Form 10-K. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are only made as of the date of this report and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
The following discussion and analysis provides information which the Companys management believes to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with the Company's financial statements and the notes to financial statements, which are included in this report.

Operations
We were incorporated on January 12, 2009. All of the activity through January 31, 2009 involved incorporation efforts, planning and activities discussed herein under the heading Business Initial Contracts.
The Company has not generated significant revenues from its planned principal operations. However, it cannot take advantage of being an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act because it had gone public prior to December 8, 2011.
We began generating revenues from our planned principal operations during the six months ended July 31, 2009. We are a development stage company and have no financial resources. We have not established a source of equity or debt financing. Our independent registered auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report emphasizing the uncertainty of our ability to remain a going concern.
Our mission is to provide strategic business planning and management consulting services to small companies. Our president, Mr. Sundberg has more than 20 years of experience providing these types of services and has written a book on the subject entitled When Did I Lose My Company?
For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, our operations were as follows:

The revenue was earned from a very limited number of unrelated clients. There is no way to predict the likelihood that revenues will increase significantly in future periods.
All compensation was paid to our President.
Other
As a corporate policy, we will not incur any significant cash obligations that we cannot satisfy with known resources, of which there are currently none except as described in Liquidity below.
Liquidity
ABCA has a loan payable of $7,220 due to an unrelated party. The loan bears interest at 4% per annum and is payable on demand. There is no commitment or likelihood that the lender will provide additional funds to us if needed.
ABCA has a loan payable to its President with a principal balance of $30,307. The loan in noninterest-bearing and is payable on demand. There is no commitment on the part of our President to provide additional funds to us if needed.
13
We incurred $50,000 of legal costs relating to the registration of shares of our common stock in a Registration Statement on Form S-1 that became effective in September 2010. That obligation was satisfied in full in February 2011 when we (i) issued 1,200,000 registered shares of common stock and (ii) entered into a $38,000 convertible note payable with our outside counsel, Gary B. Wolff, to satisfy the obligation. The convertible note is payable on demand, bears interest at 2% per annum, and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to the par value of the shares. Conversion can be in whole or in any portion of the outstanding principal balance at the option of the holder.
We have become a public company and, by doing so, have incurred and will continue to incur additional significant expenses for legal, accounting and related services. Once we become a public entity, subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of '34, we will incur ongoing expenses associated with professional fees for accounting, legal and a host of other expenses including annual reports and proxy statements, if required. We estimate that these costs could range up to $50,000 per year for the next few years and will be higher if our business volume and activity increases but lower during the first year or two of being public because our overall business volume will be low. These obligations will reduce our ability and resources to expand our business. We hope to be able to use our status as a public company to increase our ability to use noncash means of settling obligations and compensate independent contractors who provide professional services to us, although there can be no assurances that we will be successful in any of those efforts. We will reduce the compensation levels paid to management if there is insufficient cash generated from operations to satisfy these costs.
There are no current plans to seek private investment. We do not have any current plans to raise funds through the sale of securities except as set forth herein. We hope to be able to use our status as a public company to enable us to use non-cash means of settling obligations and compensate persons and/or firms providing services to us, although there can be no assurances that we will be successful in any of those efforts. We believe that the perception that many people have of a public company make it more likely that they will accept restricted securities from a public company as consideration for indebtedness to them than they would from a private company. We have not performed any studies of this matter. Our conclusion is based on our own beliefs. Issuing shares of our common stock to such persons instead of paying cash to them would increase our chances to expand our business. Having shares of our common stock may also give persons a greater feeling of identity with us which may result in referrals. However, these actions, if successful, will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing managements ability to maintain control of ABCA because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management. ABCA may offer shares of its common stock to settle a portion of the professional fees incurred in connection with its registration statement. No negotiations have taken place with any professional and no assurances can be made as to the likelihood that any professional will accept shares in settlement of obligations due them.
There are no other significant liabilities outside of standard vendor obligations outstanding at January 31, 2013.
Recent 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related notes requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements.
Financial Reporting Release No. 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements. There are no critical policies or decisions that rely on judgments that are based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Note 2 to the financial statements includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Seasonality
We have not noted a significant seasonal impact in our business.
14
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K, obligations under any guarantee contracts or contingent obligations. We also have no other commitments, other than the costs of being a public company that will increase our operating costs or cash requirements in the future
Item 7A.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the same person), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a15(e) and 15d15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Companys periodic SEC filings. In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting
Our internal control over financial reporting 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;
·
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 the Company's management and 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.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Companys management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
15
Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Because of such inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2013, based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. After conducting the assessment, management determined that, as of January 31, 2013, the Companys internal control over financial reporting is effective, based on those criteria.
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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting(as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B
OTHER INFORMATION
No event occurred during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011 that would have required disclosure in a report on Form 8-K.
PART III
Item 10.
DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Board of Directors
Our management consists of:
Name | Age | Title |
Edward A. Sundberg | 65 | President, CEO, principal executive officer, treasurer, chairman, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer |
Lindsay Chisholm | 32 | Director |
Edward A. Sundberg founded us in January 2009. He has been performing consulting work for a variety of firms owned by him since 1988. Since 2002, he has been a managing partner of Titan International LLC, an Atlanta based project management and business strategy advisory firm and the owner, since 1992, of Sundberg Communications Co. Inc., a private consulting company. He was chairman and president of ConsultAmerica, Inc., a consulting firm that went public in April 2005. In August 2005, Mr. Sundberg underwent open heart bypass surgery shortly after which ConsultAmerica, Inc. was sold. Upon recovery, Mr. Sundberg resumed consulting for firms owned by him. He is a graduate of the United States Naval Academy and holds an MBA from Boston University.
Lindsay Chisholm became a director in January 2009. She was an officer and director in ConsultAmerica, Inc. in 2005. She is a graduate of Connecticut College and received a JD from Massachusetts School of Law in 2008. Since 2005, she has performed various contract services for businesses owned by Edward A. Sundberg. Lindsay Chisholm is the daughter of Edward A. Sundberg.
Possible Potential Conflicts
The OTCBB on which we plan to have our shares of common stock quoted does not have any director independence requirements.
16
No member of management will be required by us to work on a full time basis, although our president currently devotes at least 30 hours a week to us. Accordingly, certain conflicts of interest may arise between us and our officer(s) and director(s) in that they may have other business interests in the future to which they devote their attention, and they may be expected to continue to do so although management time must also be devoted to our business. As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through their exercise of such judgment as is consistent with each officer's understanding of his/her fiduciary duties to us.
Currently we have only two officers and two directors (the same persons), who are related to each other, and will seek to add additional officer(s) and/or director(s) as and when the proper personnel are located and terms of employment are mutually negotiated and agreed, and we have sufficient capital resources and cash flow to make such offers.
In an effort to resolve potential conflicts of interest, we have entered into a written agreement with Mr. Sundberg specifying that any business opportunities that he may become aware of independently or directly through his association with us (as opposed to disclosure to him of such business opportunities by management or consultants associated with other entities) would be presented by him solely to us.
We cannot provide assurances that our efforts to eliminate the potential impact of conflicts of interest will be effective.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
In January 2009 we adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct which is applicable to our future employees and which also includes a Code of Ethics for our CEO and principal financial officers and persons performing similar functions. A code of ethics is a written standard designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
·
honest and ethical conduct,
·
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in regulatory filings and public statements,
·
compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
·
the prompt reporting violation of the code, and
·
accountability for adherence to the code.
Board of Directors
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. Both directors terms of office expire on January 31, 2014. All officers are appointed annually by the board of directors and, subject to existing employment agreements (of which there are currently none) and serve at the discretion of the board. Currently, directors receive no compensation for their role as directors but may receive compensation for their role as officers.
As long as we have an even number of directors, tie votes on issues are resolved in favor of the chairmans vote.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
During the past five years, no present director, executive officer or person nominated to become a director or an executive officer of ABCA:
1.
had a petition under the federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer appointed by a court for the business or property of such person, or any partnership in which he/she was a general partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he/she was an executive officer at or within two years before the time of such filing;
2.
was convicted in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
17
3.
was subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him/her from or otherwise limiting his/her involvement in any of the following activities:
i.
acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity;
ii.
engaging in any type of business practice; or
iii.
engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of federal or state securities laws or federal commodities laws; or
4.
was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of an federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described in paragraph (3) (i), above, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity; or
5.
was found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and for which the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Concurrent with having sufficient members and resources, the ABCA board of directors will establish an audit committee and a compensation committee. We believe that we will need a minimum of five directors to have effective committee systems. The audit committee will review the results and scope of the audit and other services provided by the independent auditors and review and evaluate the system of internal controls. The compensation committee will manage any stock option plan we may establish and review and recommend compensation arrangements for the officers. No final determination has yet been made as to the memberships of these committees or when we will have sufficient members to establish committees.
All directors will be reimbursed by ABCA for any expenses incurred in attending directors' meetings provided that VIP has the resources to pay these fees. ABCA will consider applying for officers and directors liability insurance at such time when it has the resources to do so.
Item 11.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The following table shows, for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, compensation awarded to or paid to, or earned by, our Chief Executive Officer (the Named Executive Officer).
Name and Principal Position | Fiscal Year | Salary | Bonus | Option Awards | Total |
Edward A. Sundberg | 2013 | $ 37,421 | - | - | $ 37,421 |
CEO | 2012 | $ 2,434 | - | - | $ 2,434 |
There is no employment contract with Mr. Sundberg at this time; nor are there any agreements for compensation in the future. Mr. Sundbergs compensation has not been fixed or based on any percentage calculations. He will make all decisions determining the amount and timing of his compensation and, for the immediate future, will receive the level of compensation each month that permits us to meet our obligations. Mr. Sundbergs compensation amounts will be more formalized if and when his annual compensation reaches $150,000.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End
There are no outstanding equity awards.

Item 12.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
As of May 24, 2013 we had 10,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding which are held by one shareholder. The chart below sets forth the ownership, or claimed ownership, of certain individuals and entities. This chart discloses those persons known by the board of directors to have, or claim to have, beneficial ownership of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of May 24, 2013; of all directors and executive officers of ABCA; and of our directors and officers as a group.
Title Of Class | Name, Title and Address of Beneficial Owner of Shares(a) | Amount of Beneficial Ownership | Percent of Class |
|
|
|
|
Common | Edward A Sundberg | 9,000,000 | 88.2% |
Common | Lindsay Chisholm | -0- | -0- |
| All Directors and Officers as a group (2 persons) | 9,000,000 | 88.2% |
(a) The address for Mr. Sundberg is 13070 Addison Road, Roswell, GA 30075. |
(b) Unless otherwise indicated, ABCA believes that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of the common stock beneficially owned by them. A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities which may be acquired by such person within 60 days from the date indicated above upon the exercise of options, warrants or convertible securities. Each beneficial owners percentage ownership is determined by assuming that options, warrants or convertible securities that are held by such person (but not those held by any other person) and which are exercisable within 60 days of the date indicated above, have been exercised. |
Shareholder Matters
As a Nevada corporation, we are subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS" or "Nevada law"). Certain provisions of Nevada law create rights that might be deemed material to our shareholders. Other provisions might delay or make more difficult acquisitions of our stock or changes in our control or might also have the effect of preventing changes in our management or might make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that some of our shareholders may believe to be in their best interests.
Directors' Duties - Section 78.138 of the Nevada law allows our directors and officers, in exercising their powers to further our interests, to consider the interests of our employees, suppliers, creditors and customers. They can also consider the economy of the state and the nation, the interests of the community and of society and our long-term and short-term interests and shareholders, including the possibility that these interests may be best served by our continued independence. Our directors may resist a change or potential change in control if they, by a majority vote of a quorum, determine that the change or potential change is opposed to or not in our best interest. Our board of directors may consider these interests or have reasonable grounds to believe that, within a reasonable time, any debt which might be created as a result of the change in control would cause our assets to be less than our liabilities, render us insolvent, or cause us to file for bankruptcy protection
Amendments to Bylaws - Our articles of incorporation provide that the power to adopt, alter, amend, or repeal our bylaws is vested exclusively with the board of directors. In exercising this discretion, our board of directors could conceivably alter our bylaws in ways that would affect the rights of our shareholders and the ability of any shareholder or group to effect a change in our control; however, the board would not have the right to do so in a way that would violate law or the applicable terms of our articles of incorporation.
Item 13.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
The sole promoter of ABCA is Edward A. Sundberg, our chief executive officer.

We incurred $50,000 of legal costs relating to the registration of shares of our common stock in a Registration Statement on Form S-1 that became effective in September 2010. That obligation was satisfied in full in February 2011 when we (i) issued 1,200,000 registered shares of common stock and (ii) entered into a $38,000 convertible note payable with our outside counsel, Gary B. Wolff, to satisfy the obligation. The convertible note is payable on demand, bears interest at 2% per annum, and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to the par value of the shares. Conversion can be in whole or in any portion of the outstanding principal balance at the option of the holder.
Director Independence
For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15). Under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Accordingly, we do not have an independent director as of September 30, 2010.
Item 14.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
American Business Change Agents, Inc.
Roswell, Georgia
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Business Change Agents, Inc. as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, stockholders deficit, and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended and the period from January 12, 2009 (date of inception) to January 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it 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 Companys 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Business Change Agents, Inc., as of January 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended and the period from January 12, 2009 (date of inception) to January 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that American Business Change Agents, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses from operations, has negative working capital, and is in need of additional capital to grow its operations so that it can become profitable. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 3. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

AMERICAN BUSINESS CHANGE AGENTS, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2013
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION
American Business Change Agents, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 12, 2009.
The Company provides strategic business planning and management consulting services to small companies.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Basis
These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on January 31.
Development Stage Company
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to development-stage companies as defined by section 915-10-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or, if its operations have commenced, there have been no significant revenues therefrom.
The Company has not generated significant revenues from its planned principal operations. However, it cannot take advantage of being an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act because it had gone public prior to December 8, 2011.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned less an amount for estimated future doubtful accounts. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the services have been rendered, (iii) the sales price for the services is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
Income Taxes
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Section 740-10-25). Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
F-7
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Paragraph 820-10-35-37) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
|
|
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
|
|
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at January 31, 2013 and 2012.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during each period. There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding as of January 31, 2013 or 2012. There are no shares included in the earnings per share calculation related to the Company's convertible note outstanding because the Companys average stock price did not exceed the conversion price and, accordingly, there is no conversion spread.
Subsequent Events
The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company evaluates subsequent events from the date of the balance sheet through the date when the financial statements are issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them with the SEC on the EDGAR system.
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 other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 GOING CONCERN
The Company was formed in January 2009. It has negative working capital and a net stockholders deficit of $86,427 at January 31, 2013. It has generated total revenue of $9,078 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 and has no sources of financing. While the Company is attempting to expand operations and produce revenues, the Companys cash position may not be significant enough to support the Companys daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by seeking funds from private investors known to its President after consistent revenue generation has commenced. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that the Company will complete the engagements successfully or that these engagements will be extended. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that its business plan will succeed.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
F-8
NOTE 4 LOAN PAYABLE
The Company has a loan payable of $7,220 due to an unrelated party. The loan bears interest at 4% per annum and is payable on demand.
The Company has a loan payable to its President with a principal balance of $30,307. The loan in noninterest-bearing and is payable on demand.
NOTE 5 STOCKHOLDERS DEFICIT
The Company is authorized to issue 74,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
There were 9,000,000 shares of common stock issued at incorporation.
The Company incurred $50,000 of legal costs relating to the registration of shares of its common stock in a Registration Statement on Form S-1 that became effective in September 2010. This amount is included in Accrued Expenses at January 31, 2011. That obligation was satisfied in full in February 2011 when the Company (i) issued 1,200,000 registered shares of common stock and (ii) entered into a $38,000 convertible note payable with its outside counsel to satisfy the obligation. The convertible note is payable on demand, bears interest at 2% per annum, and is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at a price per share equal to the par value of the shares. Conversion can be in whole or in any portion of the outstanding principal balance at the option of the holder.
After the 1,200,000 shares were issued, there were 10,200,000 common shares outstanding. No shares of preferred stock have been issued.
NOTE 6 INCOME TAXES
As of January 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $107,427 that may be available to reduce future years taxable income through 2032. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.
Because of the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in Company ownership occur in the future, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to their use in future years.
NOTE 7 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer has provided office services without charge. There is no obligation for the officer to continue this arrangement. Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and, accordingly, are not reflected herein.
The officers and directors are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.
NOTE 8 SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER
All revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 was earned from three clients. Substantially all revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2012 was earned from two clients.
NOTE 9 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has evaluated all events that occurred after the balance sheet date of January 31, 2013 through May 24, 2013, the date when the financial statements were issued. The Management of the Company determined that there were no reportable events that occurred during that subsequent period to be disclosed or recorded.
