Business

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, should, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates, predicts, potential or continue or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to common shares refer to the common shares in our capital stock.
As used in this annual report, the terms we, us, our and our company, mean B-Maven, Inc., Pure Snax International, Inc. as it was renamed following the date of this Form 10-k.
Our Current Business
By exploiting the trademarks acquired through the License Agreement (the Exclusive License) we intend to manufacture, distribute, sell and market various products within the health foods and snacks industry.
Pure Snax International is a wellness brand focused on bringing healthy snacks and foods to consumers. PSI offers a wide assortment of sugar free, peanut free, Kosher, low fat, low sodium and Non GMO certified products. Public awareness of these products has been created through sponsorships of programs such as the Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA) and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). With the tough new nutritional standards being rolled out through schools in the United States, we are poised to capitalize on these regulations by offering good for you, functional foods and snacks that meet these new regulatory standards. PSI currently has product placement in venues such as Torontos SickKids hospital, catering to children with strict dietary restrictions, which can be replicated in similar venues throughout North America. These are markets where traditional large snack and food companies have difficulty in quickly penetrating due to scalability restrictions. Thus, this allows Pure Snax International to capture and establish lasting market share and grow from a boutique to a large company. Product categories include Popcorn, candied popcorn, marshmallow squares (made without Gelatin), hemp and hemp related products, protein bars, mints, gum and various condiments as well as offering Wow its Not Sugar! Xylitol, an all-natural sweetener.
Through the Licensing Agreement we will distribute delicious tasting, very healthy snack foods meeting the highest of standards and compliance for the US consumers with plans to evolve into an international audience. With a socially responsible mandate supported by education and driven by integrity and sincerity, PSI will provide people with healthier snack and food choices by utilizing wholesome, natural, high quality ingredients that promote healthier lifestyles. We have chosen to specialize in the development, sourcing, branding and distribution of high quality, healthy food and snack products. It is our vision to brand Pure Snax International as one of the trusted names in the healthy food and snack industry.
With major illnesses such as diabetes, obesity, cancer, and heart disease on the rise, people are looking for ways to minimize the risks in developing these diseases. People are starting to read and understand labels looking for healthier choices. We believe that the demand for healthier products is driving a fundamental change in the food and snack markets. This demand will provide enormous opportunities for Pure Snax International to position itself in the healthy food and snack industry.
Our goal is to utilize open public forums, education, integrity and honesty to earn the publics trust and become that trusted brand that provides healthy food and snack products to the growing percentage of the population wanting to make healthier life choices. In other words, what we put on our labels, we mean. We believe in having a position in the marketplace where the market will be rather than where the market is.
4
We intend to become pioneers in a dynamic and growing segment of the industry where future demand will be and it means addressing the new public awareness of healthier food and snack products. The snack products developed must not only meet healthy product guidelines but also taste good. This is a very unique niche and one that hasnt been completely tapped into for its greatest potential. PPM150 Nutritional Guidelines that came into effect in Ontario, Canada, was one of the first nutritional standards to be implemented for vending and school products. Similar guidelines in many other provinces and states across Canada and the United States have since been implemented. They call for vending and school products that are low in fat (80% with 3 grams of fat and under or 20% with 5 grams of fat and under) as well as low in sodium and sugar, which is not the primary ingredient. Candy, Chocolate, Soda, junk food such as potato chips and confectionary have been banned. Our recipe for Marshmallow Squares are sugar-free, Gluten-free, contains very little salt, Gelatin Free, kosher, nut free and taste great! To the fact that education is needed, many consumers are not aware that Gelatin is derived from animal bones and parts yet have been eating Gelatin through Jell-o and Marshmallows for years. Knowing that there are healthy products required for this channel and that the trend will be towards healthier products, we have developed and are constantly continuing to work on other recipes for healthier products that meet all standards.
Government Regulation
Our business operations are subject to several international and domestic laws including labor and employment laws, laws governing advertising and promotions, privacy laws, safety regulations, import/export restrictions, consumer protection regulations that govern product standards and labeling, and several other regulations. We believe that we are currently in material compliance with all such applicable laws.
We believe that the current products portfolio and any potential products will fall under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory umbrella. The FDA is charged with protecting consumers against impure, unsafe, and fraudulently labeled products. FDA, through its Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), regulates foods other than the meat, poultry, and egg products regulated by FSIS. FDA is also responsible for the safety of drugs, medical devices, biologics, animal feed and drugs, cosmetics, and radiation emitting devices. As applicable, the Licensee shall comply with all regulatory and other agencies, including governmental and private, as applicable, in the marketing, distribution, and/or selling of the Products. Licensor shall provide any approvals, as applicable, to Licensee, that would be beneficial in the efforts of the Licensee.
We are currently not aware of any new legislation or regulation that may or may not apply to current and future products within the brand portfolio. However, in a constantly evolving global business environment we will rely on its management teams experience and advise from legal counsel.
Our e-commerce website and online content are subject to government regulation of the Internet in many areas, including user privacy, telecommunications, data protection, and commerce. The application of these laws and regulations to our business is often unclear and sometimes may conflict. It may take years to determine whether and how existing laws such as those governing intellectual property, privacy, advertising, etc. apply to the Internet. Nonetheless, laws and regulations directly applicable to Internet communications, commerce and advertising are becoming more prevalent. Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that laws and regulations may be adopted covering issues such as user privacy, content, quality of products and much more. Further, the growth and development of the market for e-commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws, which may impose additional burdens on companies conducting business online. Compliance with these regulations may involve significant costs or require changes in business practices that result in reduced revenue. Noncompliance could result in penalties being imposed on us or orders that we stop the alleged noncompliant activity. We believe that we are currently in material compliance with all such applicable laws.
Products and Services
We intend to sell all product categories manufactured by Pure Snax Company, Inc. with an initial focus on the following.
Wow its not sugar! - Xylitol
100% All Natural Xylitol Sweetener. Xylitol is a natural pentitol sugar alcohol. It does not contain the glucose based carbohydrate sweetener found in sucrose, corn sugars, fructose, etc. More correctly, Xylitol is classified as a polyalcohol, which can be converted into a natural sugar. Due to the basic chemistry of Xylitol one perceives a pleasant and fresh sensation rather than the traditional burn of sugar. Xylan is the raw material source of Xylitol, which is found in some tree bark and in the hulls of several nuts and grains. Many fruits and vegetables are another source of Xylan making it a natural sweetener that works well with the body.

Wow Naturally Flavoured Coated Popcorn
Almost everyone loves popcorn! Popcorn on its own is healthy. According to the Mayo Clinic just 3 cups of Popcorn will provide you with 3.5 grams of fiber. The toppings on Popcorn are what make it unhealthy.
People were first introduced to Junk Food over 100 years ago with the introduction of a leading brand taking the first credit which combined molasses and peanuts with Popcorn. By carefully preserving taste and the candied shell coating around the popcorn, the crunch and taste of our delicious flavours will have you longing for another bite of this nutritious and functional food snack.

We will also explore several additional marketing venues such as direct mail, catalogue sales, consumer expos (home shows, health shows, food shows, fitness, anti-aging, etc.), print media / advertorials, infomercials (TV and radio), and at various festivals, product placements, talk shows, etc.

Products are currently in conceptualization phase, and the company intends to begin research and development at a later date. The development of our products from concept through manufacturing is engineered to be healthy also provide a great taste profile.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
We outsource all of our production and fulfillment in order to maintain managements focus on new product and market development. However, our commitment to the quality and consistency of our products is reflected in the selection of all aspects of production. All of our products are processed by manufacturers with which we have long standing relationships. To our knowledge, each follows the strictest Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and quality controls to ensure purity in all of our products. We use facilities that meet or exceed our standards and we source some of our raw materials directly from a variety of sources.

Our target markets for Business to Business include health care providers (including massage therapists, personal trainers, dieticians, aestheticians), physicians (including MD/DOs, DCs, DDSs, OMD/Acupuncturists), restaurants, school (also sports teams and religious groups) fundraising programs, hotels, casinos, cruise ships, health food and nutritional stores, specialty retailers who carry related products, beauty salons, Spas (day and medical), health clubs, nursing homes, and Internet sites that sell related products.
Pure Snax International has traditionally leveraged its relationships in the industry to develop in store promotional displays strategically located in retail stores to raise awareness about the availability of our products as well as perform on-site demos to educate the public on the benefits of eating healthier snack options.
Our marketing consists of a variety of channels including: national and international print advertising, strategic outdoor advertising, in-store advertising, digital advertising, guerilla marketing, involvement in the community and social media. This mix of media and channels is designed to support the brand's growth across diverse consumer groups and markets.
Business Strategy
The strategy is to gain adoption in markets and venues where traditionally unhealthy food and snack companies are unable to access. Through education and awareness via participation in diabetes events, health trade shows, food shows, sweet and snacks shows, and specialized hospitals we are gaining acceptance and enlightening many people to the fact that healthy eating and snacking exists, without having to sacrifice taste.
We anticipate that a majority of our resources will be positioned towards marketing and promotions up to the first year of roll out into the United States and after that time, the fruits of our efforts will convert into profitable sales. The process is to work in concert with strategic distributors, wholesalers and retailers along with essential store visits and demo programs to initiate purchase orders. In the example of Wow its not Sugar! Xylitol, once you try it and discover it has no after taste along with it being a functional food, the conversion is relatively easy even with a premium price.
We have also identified strategic acquisitions in the area of manufacturing and product development, which could compliment our product line to supplement and support our plans for explosive revenue.
Over the next five years, we anticipate that our growth strategy will focus on the following five key areas:
| . | Increase Global Wholesale Sales |
A delegation of our group went overseas to explore this market for our products. We visited; England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland and Spain and found overwhelming support for our products and specifically WOW! Rice Delites. This represented even an expanded opportunity based on the Current Exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar against the Sterling Pound and the Euro. There is a greater opportunity to achieve larger profits. Another delegation traveled to South Korea and South America to conduct additional market research. Once again, support for our products was overwhelming. Pure Snax International, Inc., has recognized that the lowest hanging fruit is mass retail with a under the radar approach. Strong new nutritional regulations in U.S. schools, has provided Pure Snax International with a unique opportunity.
| . | Invest in Online Development and E-commerce Activity |
We currently offer a globally accessible transactional website, www.puresnax.com, which allows anyone with Internet access to purchase our products online. We are currently working with a website developer to make key operational advances to our website such as development of user-friendly operations and layout improvements. Further, we intend to present a greater number of products on our website and expand into further marketing techniques such as affiliate marketing and advertisement opportunities.
| . | Vending Machines and Schools |
Pure Snax International is able to compete with the bigger snack companies by participating in markets they have difficulty to quickly access. They have a limited number of products that are able to meet the healthy guidelines established in the United States. According to kidsfoodtrends.com, there are some interesting trends that point to the enormous opportunities for marketers of Healthy Snack Foods:
8
·
Health is a top-of-mind parental concern and is even gaining consciousness among kids
·
Consumers of parenting age are trying to eat healthier and this has a trickle down effect to their kids
·
Parents will increasingly opt for natural and fresh food variants for their kids
·
Parents are increasingly scrutinizing product packaging to check for health information
·
Kids confectionery, ice cream and savoury snacks consumption exceeds the population average
·
U.S. children consumed notably more confectionery per capita than the population average in 2005
| . | Diversify and Expand our Product Portfolio |
We will continue to expand and strengthen our current product portfolio while exploring opportunities to diversify into new product categories within the health foods and snacks segment. We believe that diversification engages new consumer interest and enables the brand to benefit from a proactive and developing brand image while stimulating revenue from increased buyer interest and awareness of the brand. Furthermore, we anticipate that expansion of our product line will enable wholesale activity to flourish as well as increase online sales.
| . | Expand our Team |
Our team will rely on industry specialists with varied skills and backgrounds who engage in overlapping roles and responsibilities for different segments of our business. In the next five years, we aim to increase the number of direct in-house employees to five people. Further, we intend to allocate a specific area(s) of our business strategy to a specific employee or employees and will focus on developing that employees skills in that area of responsibility. Such areas of responsibility will include sales, website and social media, design and production, marketing, public relations, administration, finance and product development. The expansion of our team will allow for focused development of all areas of our business.
Intellectual Property
The trademark Wow its not sugar! has been approved in Canada and registered in the United States. Additionally, the company intends to file and prosecute additional trademark applications as may be deemed necessary for the expansion of our business. Generally, our trademarks remain valid and enforceable so long as we continue to use the marks in commerce and the required registration renewals are filed. We consider our trademarks to be valuable assets in the marketing of our products and seek to protect them from infringement worldwide.
Employees
We currently have no employees.
Competition
The major players in the snack food industry continue to manufacture and develop products that are not remotely healthy and contain sugar or artificial sweeteners as well as being high in fat. We are pioneers in the snack industry and intend to strengthen our position through integrity and creating a high barrier to entry in terms of product design. Pure Snax International will continue to expand and build product lines through different brands and private label agreements as well as continue to develop proprietary products. We do not have patents on our proprietary technology (our recipes, nor our processes) and we choose to protect this methodology by using trade secrets so that they are not easily discovered.
However, there can be no assurance that even if we do these things we will be able to compete effectively with the other companies in our industry.
Our competitive strength will depend on our ability to:
anticipate and respond to changing consumer demands in a timely manner;
maintain and increase favorable brand recognition;
develop and produce high quality products that appeal to consumers;
appropriately price our products;
maintain the high quality of our products;
ensure product availability;
expand our product portfolio;
add members to our team who possess the skills, know-how and desire to help us succeed;

The Company generated limited revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 of $7,707. Cost of goods sold for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 was $924. Gross margin from the sale of product was $6,783 or 88.0% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The Company has not earned any revenue during fiscal year ended June 30, 2015.
Expenses
Sample/marketing expense
Sample and marketing related expenses were $0 and $304, respectively, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014. Sample and marketing expenses are costs incurred in producing sample products and the placement of samples with potential marketing partners, customers, distributors and retail establishments. Sample product is recorded at cost and removed from inventory.
Consulting and other expense
Consulting and other expenses were $36,077 and $29,948, respectively, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014. For the year ended June 30, 2015, this consisted primarily of consulting expense of $11,150, audit, legal and accounting, and other costs associated with being a publicly reporting company of $23,060, and other expenses of $1867, compared to the year ended June 30, 2014 where we incurred $12,509 in consulting expenses, audit and accounting, and other costs associated with being a publicly reporting company of $10,000, and other expenses of $7,439. Samples/marketing expense for the year ended June 30, 2015 consisted of raw material cost and packaging to develop sample products of none compared to the year ended June 30, 2014 where we incurred raw material cost and packaging to develop sample products of $304.
Other income/(expense)
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, we recognized debt forgiveness from lenders upon the change in control of the Company and the sale of our founders ownership interest. We recognized $5,000 in gain on relief of debt for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to none for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. We believe this to be a one-time event for the Company and do not believe that we will be able to settle debt or obtain relief from debt in this fashion in the future.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, we recognized interest expense of $994, as compared, to $889 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. Interest expense is associated with related party loans with our pervious Chief Executive Officer and President, Mr. Cenia.
Net Loss
We recognized a net loss of $32,871 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to net loss of $25,158 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. Net income and net loss for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively, included various costs associated with product development which are not capitalized.
12
Liquidity and Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, we had $0 in cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2015, we had a working capital deficit of $9,943 and a deficit accumulated during the developmental stage of $64,630. Our cash position is not significant enough to support our daily operations. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further refine its business plan and produce inventory to generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate sufficient revenues and in our ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances that we will accomplish either. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to achieve profitable operations or obtain adequate financing.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 was $35,233 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $34,474 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 was $35,233. Cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 was $34,474.
Plan of Operation
Contractual Obligations
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that our company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, our company incurred losses of $32,871 for the year ended June 30, 2015 and has not yet produced revenues from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that our company cannot continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that it will be able to raise additional working capital through the issuance of stock and through additional loans from investors.
The ability of our company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our companys ability to attain a satisfactory level of profitability and obtain suitable and adequate financing. There can be no assurance that managements plan will be successful.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
13
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the accompanying financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and are expressed in United States Dollars. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by managements application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
These financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and are expressed in United States dollars. Our companys fiscal year end is June 30.
Principal of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of B-Maven, Inc.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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. Our company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Our company bases our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our company may differ materially and adversely from our companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Financial Instruments
Our Companys financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and related party payables. The fair value of our companys cash equivalents is determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and related party payables approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is managements opinion our company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. At June 30, 2015, our company has no potentially dilutive securities outstanding and accordingly, basic loss and diluted loss per share are the same.
Income Taxes
Our Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method which provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Our company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) Transition Accounting: pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards for an emerging growth company. This election will permit us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that will have difference effective dates for public and private companies until such time as those standards apply to private companies. Consequently, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
Our 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.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Pure Snax International, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Pure Snax International, Inc. (the Company) as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders deficit and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Pure Snax International, Inc. as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Companys losses from operations raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Nature of Business and Continuance of Operations
B-Maven, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 24, 2011. The Company was initially in the business of developing, manufacturing, marketing and selling the E-Scentual Skin Care Collection, a skin care line combining science with nature to form what we believed to be an advanced beauty treatment using all natural ingredients. The Company has limited revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. Upon execution of the License Agreement as described in Note 6, the Company plans to change its business direction to focus on the manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing of the Pure Snax Company, Inc., brand.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. For the period from inception on June 24, 2011 through June 30, 2015, the Company has incurred accumulated losses totalling $64,630. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a)
Basis of Presentation
These financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and are expressed in US dollars. The Companys fiscal year end is June 30.
b)
Principal of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of B-Maven, Inc.
c)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to income taxes. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
d)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
F-7
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
e)
Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, related party payables and loans payable. The fair value of the Companys cash equivalents is determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, related party payables and loans payable approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is managements opinion the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
f)
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. At June 30, 2015, the Company has no potentially dilutive securities outstanding and accordingly, basic loss and diluted loss per share are the same.
g)
Foreign Currency Translation
The Companys initial operations will be in the United States however global expansion is anticipated which results in exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Companys operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. The Company's functional currency for all operations worldwide is the U.S. dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated into their U.S. dollar equivalents at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the year. Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.
h)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method which provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) Transition Accounting: pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards for an emerging growth company. This election will permit us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that will have difference effective dates for public and private companies until such time as those standards apply to private companies. Consequently, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. The guidance eliminates the definition of a development stage entity thereby removing the incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, primarily presentation of inception to date financial information. The provisions of the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and the interim periods therein. However, early adoption is permitted. Accordingly, the Company has adopted this standard as of July 31, 2014.
F-8
In August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 201415 Preparation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 20540), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity's liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. If and when an entity's liquidation becomes imminent, financial statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 20530, Presentation of Financial Statements Liquidation Basis of Accounting. Even when an entity's liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In those situations, financial statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, but the amendments in this Update should be followed to determine whether to disclose information about the relevant conditions and events. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the going concern considerations in this ASU, however, at the current period, management does not believe that it has met the conditions which would subject these financial statements for additional disclosure. Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of its financial statements. The Company's management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In January 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 201501 Income Statement Extraordinary and Unusual Items, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. Eliminating the concept of extraordinary items will save time and reduce costs for preparers because they will not have to assess whether a particular event or transaction event is extraordinary (even if they ultimately would conclude it is not). This also alleviates uncertainty for preparers, auditors, and regulators because auditors and regulators no longer will need to evaluate whether a preparer treated an unusual and/or infrequent item appropriately. This update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted.
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.

Business Experience
The following is a brief account of the education and business experience during at least the past five years of each director, executive officer and key employee of our company, indicating the persons principal occupation during that period, and the name and principal business of the organization in which such occupation and employment were carried out.
Patrick Gosselin President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director
Pats talent and success in concepts are born out of a unique combination of hands on progressive experience and expertise in developing and implementing strategic objectives while creating business improvement processes and new business relationships. Applications include the analyzing of technical cost savings data, along with the negotiation, implementation and validation of detailed contracts. Pat has been called upon to consult and coach small business in a variety of different genres in the specific areas of project, expense and staff management, planning resource allocation, mediating disputes and sales. Pat spent 8 years training and teaching telecommunications consultants before starting his own successful consulting practice. He has been advising small and medium business customers across North America for the past 10 years.
Pat also has experience in facilitating M&A activities as a consultant for a merger & acquisition firm (enterprise value $10M or less) along with an expert understanding of Merchant Services across North Americas markets. Most recently over the past 5 years, Pat spearheaded the creation of Pure Snax, and coordinated the stringent approval process of Xylitol for use in peanut and tree nut free manufacturing facilities securing the ability to use Xylitol in a large scale manufacturing environment. He also established the framework for sales and distribution of healthy snacks and food products throughout North America through setting up an EDI portal, GS1 compliant barcodes and systems, and developing several key relationships. In his current role, Pat is in the midst of taking public a healthy snack business through a reverse merger with a U.S. based corporation.
In his younger formative years, Pat had a prolific baseball career as a member of Championship winning teams between 1986 and 1990. He became a member of Baseball Canadas junior team in 1990 and was ultimately drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1993. After a short stint in the minor leagues, Pat returned to school to complete his formal education. A graduate with a degree in Arts and Psychology from the University of Sherbrooke, Mr. Gosselin is fluent in English and French
Other Directorships
None of our directors hold any other directorships in any company with a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of section 15(d) of such Act or any company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Our officers and directors or any affiliates of our company have not been previously involved in the management or ownership of have not acted as a promoter or in which they have a controlling interest in any other previous registration statement of companies. Therefore, there are no companies that are viable or dormant and which businesses have been modified and restated from that described in their offering documents, and the sole officer and director have no connection to companies that are still actively reporting with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
16
Board of Directors and Director Nominees
Since our board of directors does not include a majority of independent directors, the decisions of the board regarding director nominees are made by persons who have an interest in the outcome of the determination. The board will consider candidates for directors proposed by security holders, although no formal procedures for submitting candidates have been adopted. Unless otherwise determined, at any time not less than 90 days prior to the next annual board meeting at which the slate of director nominees is adopted, the board will accept written submissions from proposed nominees that include the name, address and telephone number of the proposed nominee; a brief statement of the nominees qualifications to serve as a director; and a statement as to why the security holder submitting the proposed nominee believes that the nomination would be in the best interests of our security holders. If the proposed nominee is not the same person as the security holder submitting the name of the nominee, a letter from the nominee agreeing to the submission of his or her name for consideration should be provided at the time of submission. The letter should be accompanied by a résumé supporting the nominee's qualifications to serve on the board, as well as a list of references.
The board identifies director nominees through a combination of referrals from different people, including management, existing board members and security holders. Once a candidate has been identified, the board reviews the individual's experience and background and may discuss the proposed nominee with the source of the recommendation. If the board believes it to be appropriate, board members may meet with the proposed nominee before making a final determination whether to include the proposed nominee as a member of the slate of director nominees submitted to security holders for election to the board.
Some of the factors which the board considers when evaluating proposed nominees include their knowledge of and experience in business matters, finance, capital markets and mergers and acquisitions. The board may request additional information from each candidate prior to reaching a determination. The board is under no obligation to formally respond to all recommendations, although as a matter of practice, it will endeavor to do so.
Conflicts of Interest
Our directors are not obligated to commit their full time and attention to our business and, accordingly, they may encounter a conflict of interest in allocating time between our operations and those of other businesses. In the course of their other business activities, they may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as other entities to which they owe a fiduciary duty. As a result, they may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. They may also in the future become affiliated with entities, engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct. In general, officers and directors of a corporation are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if:
. the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;
. the opportunity is within the corporations line of business; and
. it would be unfair to the corporation and its stockholders not to bring the opportunity to the attention of the corporation.
We plan to adopt a code of ethics that obligates our directors, officers and employees to disclose potential conflicts of interest and prohibits those persons from engaging in such transactions without our consent.
Significant Employees
There are no individuals other than our executive officers who make a significant contribution to our business.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
1.
been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences);
2.
had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;
17
3.
been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity;
4
been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;
5.
been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or
6.
been the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26)), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29)), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Our common stock is not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Accordingly, our officers, directors, and principal stockholders are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships among our officers, directors, or persons nominated for such positions.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a code of ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees. When we do adopt a code of ethics, we will disclose it in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not currently have an audit committee or a committee performing similar functions. The board of directors as a whole participates in the review of financial statements and disclosure.
Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is independent as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
We believe that the sole member of our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an audit committee financial expert would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our sole director does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because believes the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the sole member of our board of directors.

We have not entered into any management agreements with any of our executive officers.
Compensation of Directors
None.
Pension, Retirement or Similar Benefit Plans

Compensation Committee

Item 12.
Related Party Transactions
None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Companys outstanding shares of its common stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company.
With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any and all related party transactions in the following manner:
*
Disclosing such transactions in reports where required;
*
Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required;
*
Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and
*
Obtaining shareholder consent where required.
Director Independence
For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCBB on which shares of the Companys Common Stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements. The NASDAQ definition of Independent Director means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
According to the NASDAQ definition, we have no independent directors.
Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 13.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Except as disclosed herein, no director, executive officer, shareholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction since the year ended June 30, 2015, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last three completed fiscal years.
Director Independence
We currently act with one director, Patrick Gosselin. We have determined that our director is not an independent director as defined in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).
