ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Global Seed Corporation was incorporated in the State of Texas on July 13, 2010. We are engaged principally in the distribution of a monthly journal.
Our product is the Global Seed Journal. It is a monthly journal which will be published in Chinese for its presentation of Asian community news, advertising content, and articles written by contributors. Our mission is to be the Asian publication devoted to community news and promotion of advertising content. We are intent on attracting a readership composed primarily of men and women at the 18 to 65 age group. Our projected revenue will mainly come from advertisers in Houston, Texas. If we are able to begin publishing our journal, there is no guarantee that we will be able to earn revenue from advertisers. We do not intend to charge a subscription fee for our journal , any revenues that we earn will be from selling advertising space in our journal. We intend to publish and distribute our monthly journal in Houston, Texas.
Global Seed Corporation is a development stage company that has commenced its planned operations. The operations of the Company to date have been devoted primarily to start-up activities which include the following:
- Formation of the Company:
- Development of our business Plan;
- Capital raising activities ;
- Hire attorney and auditor to prepare the S-1 registration;
- Entering agreements with our vendors for printing services;
- Recruitment of sales representatives;

OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
We are offering the following sections in our journal to target Chinese speaking advertisers and readers in Houston, Texas. There is no guarantee that the advertisers in the industries discussed in this section will choose to purchase advertisements in our journal:
Our proposed journal will devote a special section for the buying and selling of homes in Texas. We believe as the economic downturn worsened, home builders and developers had a harder time selling their new homes, and bankers foreclosed those properties to be liquidated. Our proposed journal is free and accessible at the Chinese speaking neighborhood supermarkets. We have permissions from the local supermarkets to place these freestanding newspaper racks in their designated locations. The local supermarkets do not charge a fees for placing newspaper racks within the designated supermarket as long as we provide our own metal newspaper. We anticipated our real estate listings provide photos, features, and amenities. Our proposed journal goes beyond real estate listings.
Our proposed journal will devote a special section for travel agencies. All travel agents are welcomed to advertise in our journal. We believe our readers will be able to get discount coupons for some travel and tour packages from our advertisers. We will not restricted our advertisers that do not offer discount coupons. We believe that there will be a demand from our readership for travel agents. We believe our advertisers will offer travel coupons, discounted tours and airline tickets directly to our readers. We believe that these promotions from travel agencies will increase our journal's popularity in the community.
Our proposed journal will devote a special section for restaurant advertisers. There are many restaurants in the Chinese speaking communities that offer Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese dishes. The restaurant business is highly competitive. We believe our journal can provide a platform to promote a restaurant's business. A section will be devoted for the promotion of special dishes from various restaurants.
Our proposed journal will devote a section for an entertainment guide. This section is the journal's one-stop local entertainment guide. Our reader can go and find out what to do in Houston, from the hot bars, to the latest events, music, movies, styles, and TV.
Our proposed journal will devote a section for business advertisement. We plan to support our growth through business advertisements. We believe that there will be advertisements for businesses, special events, classifieds, and other revenue building advertisements will draw the readers to the journal.

MARKETING AND PROMOTION STRATEGIES:
According to the 2011 Census, Texas is the second most populous U.S. state, next to New York. Texas has experienced strong population growth in recent years. The population growth is mainly in the major cities such as Austin, El Paso, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. The Chinese American population in our targeted market in Houston is 24,001. There is no available information regarding the number of Chinese-American who could read Chinese in Houston. We will start operations in Houston, Texas and expand to the California and New York Market within five years. There is no guarantee that we will be able start our journal in Houston or to expand to New York and California within five years.
Our proposed journal is a local, free pick up journal that relies totally on advertising revenue from businesses that want to target a niche in the market of Chinese-Americans. Our Proposed journal will be founded on the principle of creating a publication and marketing for businesses who wish to reach the Chinese-American consumer. We believe our proposed journal will not be successful unless our advertising campaigns provide effective results for the businesses that buy ad space.
ADVERTISING FOR BUSINESS:
Our advertising service begins with an initial concept and design. Our independent printing contractors charge $25 for each advertising design project. Our estimated yearly budget for $800 for design already included the charge of $25 for each advertising design project. We have no intention to hire our staff designers. We believe that advertising is about more than just making the sale. We believe that successful advertising helps our clients’ businesses gain long-term, loyal customers. We believe that the advertising services of Global Seed Journal give organizations the opportunity to increase public awareness through consistent and frequent advertising opportunities. We have our printing contractors to provide the initial concept and design services for our advertisers.
Global Seed Journal offers different approaches to connect with our client’s consumer-base. (a) The travel agency advertisers can offer discount coupons and special tour promotions directly to the consumers. (b) Advertisers such as medical doctors, accountants, attorneys and real estate agents could provided their news releases and special content writings with a focus to their targeted consumers. (c) Other advertisers such as the local supermarkets could offer their weekly specials to their targeted consumers. We take great care in developing the options to fulfill the advertising needs of our customers. The City of Houston will be divided into four selling/distribution zones but the journal's contents and the pricing for advertising space are the same for the advertisers.
Our sales representatives will find customers through cold calls and direct sales. Each representative will be trained on presenting the journal to potential advertisers. The process of selling to new advertisers is as follow: Get out the phone book and call them, compile a list of targeted advertisers, set up appointments to meet with potential advertisers. We believe that the sales representatives are key to the success of our business because the sales representatives are able to solicit new accounts in the Chinese communities. We believe that as time goes by and journal recognition increases, so will the advertiser's acceptance.

FEATURES OF OUR JOURNAL
Global Seed Journal is a monthly publication that reaches the Chinese American consumer. It is our mandate to create an editorial environment that is stimulating, entertaining, informative, and relevant to the Chinese American. There will be twenty local supermarkets locations throughout Houston. It will take one day for an employee to distribute the journal to all of the local supermarkets. The front cover will change monthly and will feature a specific business and/or event relevant to our consumer. The cover is the most critical part of attracting our new market. We believe it must provoke the consumer to pick it up and read it.
Global Seed Journal will be a monthly publication that reaches the Chinese American consumer and we have not yet publish our journal. It is our mandate to create an editorial environment that is stimulating, entertaining, informative, and relevant to the Chinese American. We believe our commitment to quality is essential in the journal and magazine industry. We will placed approximately 20 freestanding newspaper racks in some of the designated local supermarkets and our advertisers' locations throughout Houston. It will take one day for an employee to distribute the journal to all of the freestanding newspaper racks. We have permissions from the local supermarkets to place these freestanding newspaper racks in their designated locations. The local supermarkets do not charge a fees for placing newspaper racks within the designated supermarket as long as we provide our own metal newspaper racks. The cost for each of the metal newspaper rack is $45.00. The front cover will change monthly and will feature a specific business and/or event relevant to our consumer. The cover is the most critical part of attracting our new market. It must provoke the consumer to pick it up and read it.
FINANCIAL PLAN:
Our financial analysis is the focus on the increase of revenue through sales and determining our break-even analysis. Our sales forecast assumes no significant change in costs or prices, which is a reasonable assumption for three-year projection. Our initial concentration will be the sales of advertising space in Houston, Texas. As of June 30, 2012, we have $ 51,162 in cash for general and administrative expenses. Our company has certain start-up costs typically for development stage companies. These costs will occur during the twelve months of operation. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities, private placement offerings, and advanced funds from our officer and director and there is no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional capital through the sale of equity or debt securities and advanced funds from our officer and director.
REVENUE AND BREAK-EVEN ANALYSIS
Below is the estimated cost of each type of advertising space available to our advertisers. We have adopted a uniform advertising rates throughout the City of Houston. Our rates disclosed for advertisers include our initial design and set up services for advertisers.
Type of Ad | 9-11 times |
3- 8 times
|
Each time |
Full Page Ad | $500 | $550 | $600 |
½ Page | $350 | $400 | $450 |
¼ quarter page Classifieds |
$200 | $250 | $300 |
$150 | $150 | $150 |
If we are able to sell 8 pages of advertising space for a total of $4,800 monthly revenue, we believe it would allow the journal begin to break-even at $4,800.

BUSINESS STRATEGIES
Our market entry strategy will be focused on Chinese communities in Houston, Texas. There is a market for advertisers in Houston, Texas. We will be hiring two sales representatives to solicit advertising accounts through telephone solicitations and personal visits. Our competitors are monthly Chinese language publishers who offer similar products and services in Houston, Texas. We will also compete with other advertisers including English language journals and newspapers. Our initial monthly circulation will be 2,000 copies in Houston, Texas. We intend to increase to 3,500 copies gradually as soon as we are able to sign up more advertisers. We will be initially offering our journal, Global Seed Journal, with front cover in colors and freely distributed to the Chinese communities. As soon as we have achieved a monthly circulation of 10,000 copies in Houston, Texas, we will be adding electronic version of our journal in the internet. One of our business strategies is to expand our readership to other Chinese communities in the United States. Once we have implemented our journal in the electronic format, we believe that we will be able to attract more advertisers and readers.
COMPETITION
We believe our journal competes with several competitors locally in Houston. Our competitors have more prominent brand names and more established with larger market shares; they have greater financial and other resources than we do. We compete based on the followings; the platform on which our products are offered; the way we market and promote our products and services; the effectiveness of the distribution of our products and services. We believe our success in attracting advertisers depends in large part on our ability to identify and successfully respond to customer trends and preferences.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Management believes that the protection of our intellectual property rights is a key component of our operating strategy. Once our logo is registered with the U.S. Patent office, our potential competitors no longer able to use our company's logo. The legal fees for protecting our intellectual property rights is $300 by register our company's logo with the U.S. Patent Office.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRATNT COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
MARKET INFORMATION
There is presently no public market for our common stock and there has never been a market for our common stock. We anticipate applying for quotation of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we cannot assure you that our shares will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or, if quoted, that a public market will materialize.
PENNY STOCK
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker or dealer duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.
HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
As of June 30, 2012, we had 5,000,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding held by approximately 49 shareholders of record.
DIVIDEND
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and have no present intention of paying any dividends on the shares of our common stock. Our future dividend policy will be determined from time to time by our board of director.
SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
We do not have any compensation plan under which equity securities are authorized for issuance.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place an undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus; these forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is to proceed with the implementation of our business plan. We have raised an aggregate of $50,000 through private placements of our securities offerings. We intend to begin to accomplish the steps described in the following table as of the date of effectiveness. We will focus on generating advertising revenue from potential clients in Texas.

CREATE OUR CORPORATE WEBSITE
It is part of our business strategy to have our corporate website. A website can convey our corporate images and services to potential advertisers throughout the United States. Web designers charge between $500 to $10,000 for website design projects. We believe our estimated cost for $2,500 will be sufficient to cover our website design. The estimate time to complete our website is between one or two months. Once the website is completed, it requires to continue updates with new contents and services. One of our business strategy is to have our on-line journal that is accessible throughout the United States. The internet has a wider readership than the local printed media. As soon as we have achieved a monthly circulation of 10,000 copies in Houston, Texas, we will be adding electronic version of our journal in the internet. The estimated cost of adding an electronic version of our journal on our website is $5,000. Our initial monthly circulation will be 2,000 copies in Houston, Texas. For the Second year of operation, we believe our monthly circulation will be 3,000 copies. For the third year of operation, we believe our monthly circulation will be 10,000 copies. Once we have implemented our journal in the Internet format, we believe that we will be able to attract more advertisers and readers. There is no guarantee that we will be able to achieve the monthly circulation as of the estimated dates and there is no guarantee that we will ever be able to achieve a monthly circulation of 10,000 copies within three years.
PRINTING AND PUBLISHING
We have obtained printing estimations with printing contractors and publishers who agreed to provide printing services to our journal. These contractors have the required printing machines to produce our journal. One of our major expenditures for our business will be the printing and publishing costs.
Printing contractors also have the capabilities to offer related design services for our journal. We estimated our additional design services offer by our independent printing contractor will be $800. These journalists and writers could contribute writings in many subject areas and able to meet our deadlines. The arrangements with journalists and writers were based on work counts. We believe journalists and writers typically charged $0.01 per word count and there is no guarantee that we will be able to purchase articles for $0.01 per word count. We have set aside $500 budget for writers each monthly.
It is customary for free newspapers, journals and magazines to set up their own metal newspaper racks within supermarkets and other designated areas such as banks and some Chinese restaurants. We have already made arrangements with a few supermarkets to display our journal. Displaying our journal within supermarkets are beneficial to the supermarkets and us. We believe any readers are motivated to pick up free newspapers, magazines or journals at supermarkets. We believe the readers' presence increase foot traffics to the supermarkets for shopping.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
HIRING COMMISSION SALES REPRESENTATIVES
It is less costly to hire commission sales persons than salaried employees because the Company is not required to contribute payroll taxes and other employees' benefit. We believe that it is not difficult to recruit one or two experienced sale representatives in Houston. Many new immigrants from China are highly educated, and some of them have experiences in sales and other related fields. However, good and reliable workforces still require careful and selective processes. We estimate the screening and recruiting of qualified sale representatives require one or two months.
MARKETING AND PROMOTION
Our marketing and promotion activities include business networking among business and community leaders in Houston. One of our goals is to maintain good relationship with journalists in the Chinese community. We will invite journalists for luncheons and encourage them to offer any suggestions to improve our productivity and sales.
EXPANDING OUR BUSINESS ACTIVITIES
In addition to outsource our printing and publishing tasks to local printing contractors, we believe that the Company requires some of the essential office equipments to carry out our daily operations. These office equipments include but not limited to desktop and laptop computers, copy machine, scanning machine, accounting software, office furniture and telephone equipments and additional design services.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As of June 30, 2012, we have generated 6,300 in revenues and our assets consist of $51,162 and our net loss for the fiscal year ended 2012 and 2011 were $(3,338) and $(2,865) respectively. Our present capital will be able to maintain our planned operations for 12 months. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities, private placement offerings, and advanced funds from our officer and director.
We are in the development stage and that we have commenced some of our planned principal operations. During the period of inception, July 14, 2010 to June 30, 2011, we incorporated the company and hired attorney, accountants, and auditor for the preparation of this registration statement. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we have incurred a net operating loss of $(3,338) and $(2,865) respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of the date of this registration statement, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operation. We issued 2,500,000 shares of common stock to 35 non-affiliated investors from July 14, 2010 to June 30, 2011, for $49,000; the private placements were relied on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Regulation S and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Each purchaser represented to us that he or she was not a United States person (as defined in Regulation S). Each purchaser further represented that at the time of the origination of contact concerning the subscription for the shares, and the date of the execution and delivery of the subscription agreement for such shares, purchaser was outside of the United States. We did not make any offers in the United States, and there were no selling efforts in the United States. There were no underwriters or broker-dealers involved in the private placements and no underwriting discounts or commissions were paid.
As of June 30, 2012, our total assets were $ 51,209 in cash and our total liabilities were $6,300. Our sole officer and director, Su Zhi Da, verbally agreed to advance funds to us for general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months or until such a time the company begins to generate any revenues. There is no guarantee that Su Zhi Da will advance funds to us. We do not have any third-party banking or financing agreements in place to provide us with a source of liquidity.
GOING-CONCERN CONSIDERATION
John Kinross-Kennedy, C.P.A., our independent auditor, has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern given our lack of operating history and the fact to date have had no revenues. Potential investors should be aware that there are difficulties associated with being a new venture, and the high rate of failure associated with this fact. We have incurred a net loss of $(6,203) for the period from July 14, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2012. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations and implementation of our business plan.. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has no material transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships with entities or other persons that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future impact on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenues or expenses.
CRITICAL ACOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES
Our significant accounting policies are more fully disclosed in Note 1 to our financial statements. However, some of our accounting policies may be more particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management. To date, due to our limited operations, we do not believe any specific accounting policies have required significant judgment or use of estimates, other than our assumption that we will continue as a going concern, as described above. If we succeed in securing additional financing and commencing research and development activities, we expect the preparation of our financial statements will require a greater number of estimates and more significant judgment. We currently believe the following critical accounting policies will require significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our future financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Global Seed Inc.
Houston, Texas
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Global Seed Inc. as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the related statements of operations, of stockholders' equity and of cash flows for the year ended June 30, 20121 and the period ended June 30, 2011, and for the period since inception, July 13, 2010 to June 30, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, based on my audit, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Seed Inc. as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2012 and the period ended June 30, 2011, and for the period from inception, July 13, 2010 to June 30, 2012, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company as at June 30, 2012 had not established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the successful completion of its plan to raise capital and develop its publishing business in order to fund operating losses and become profitable. If the Company is unable to make it profitable, the Company could be forced to cease development of operations. Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in its operation. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of the effectiveness of its documented internal controls over financial reporting.

GLOBAL SEED CORPORATION
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Year Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
NOTE 1 – BUSINESS AND CONTINUED OPERATIONS
ORGANIZATION
Global Seed Corporation is a development stage company, (the “Company”). We were incorporated on July 13, 2010 in the State of Texas. The initial operations have included organization and incorporation, target market identification, new business development, marketing plans, fund raising, and capital formation. A substantial portion of the Company’s activities has involved developing a business plan and establishing contacts and visibility in the Asian communities in Houston, Texas. The Company has generated $6,300 in revenues from June 30, 2011 through June 30, 2012. The Company is a publishing company that publishes a monthly journal called the Global Seed Journal.
The fiscal year end of the Company is June 30.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying interim financial statements and related notes as of and for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for the financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the fiscal year presented.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company for the period from July 13, 2010 (inception) through June 30, 2011 contained in the information filed as part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the nine months period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending June 30, 2012.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
The company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of advertising services in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”), “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Revenue will consist of selling of adverting services and will be recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectivity is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied will be recorded as unearned revenue. The Company's financial statements are prepared under the accrual method of accounting. Revenues will be recognized in the period the publication is provided and costs are recorded in the period incurred rather than paid.
F-6
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.
The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, deposits, prepaid expenses, notes payable, and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company has no other financial instruments.
MC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. MC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
*
level l - quoted prices in active markets for Identical assets or liabilities
*
level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
*
level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
F-7
INCOME TAXES
The Company utilizes FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when in the opinion of management, it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
DEVELOPMENT -STAGE COMPANY
The Company is considered a development-stage company, with limited operating revenues during the periods presented, as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Codification ASC 915. ASC 915 requires companies to report their operations, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows since inception through the date that revenues are generated from management’s intended operations, among other things. Management has defined inception as July 13, 2010. Since inception through June 30, 2012, the Company has an incurred a net operation loss of $(6,203). The Company’s working capital has been generated through sale of stock and the sale of advertising spaces in magazine.
F-8
BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, for the period presented. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilative convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company had no potentially dilutive securities.
NOTE 3-GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a net operating loss of $(3,338) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and net operating profit of $(6,203) since July 30, 2010 ( inception). The Company had a positive cash flow of $51,162 for cash and cash equivalent assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of common stock. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 -RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows when implemented.
F-9
NOTE 5 – DEFERED INCOME TAX
The Company's income tax rate computed at the statutory federal rate of 34%, applied to our Net Operating Loss of $(6,203), provided a deferred tax credit of $2,109, which will begin to expire in 2031 unless utilized first. An allowance of $2,109 has been established, since it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax credit will not be realized. The change in the allowance in the current year is an increase of $1,168.
NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company does not have any commitments nor contingencies.
NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
There were no related party transactions for the period ended June 30, 2012.
NOTE 8 – CAPITAL STOCK
On July 15, 2010, 2,500,000 shares of common stock were issued for cash at $0.004 per share, realizing $1,000. On July 15 10, 2010, 1,500,000 shares of common stock were issued for cash at $0.006 per share, realizing $9,000.
On June 28, 2011, 1,000,000 shares of common stock were issued for stock subscription receivables at $0.04 per share. The stock subscription receivables were subsequently received in cash on August 29, 2011.
Our authorized capital stock consists of 8,999,886,999 shares of Common Stock at par value $0.0001 per share and 9,989,886,988 shares of preferred stock at par value $0.0001 per share. We currently have 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding; no preferred shares have been issued to date.
NOTE 9 – LITIGATION
There were no legal proceedings against the Company with respect to matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor any of its officers or directors is involved in any other litigation either as plaintiffs or defendants, and have no knowledge of any threatened or pending litigation against them or any of the officers or directors.
NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management evaluated all activity of the Company through the issue date of the Financial Statements and noted there were no material subsequent events as of that date.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
A review and evaluation was performed by the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that review and evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2012 disclosure controls and procedures, were effective at ensuring that the material information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as required in the application of SEC rules and forms.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
•
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
•
Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our 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 statement.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. 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.
Our CEO and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as described in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report based upon criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As a result of this evaluation, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2012.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us 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 controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Our current named executive officer holds substantial ownership in the Company. As our business and operations expand and mature, we may develop a formal system of compensation designed to attract, retain and motivate talented executives.
