Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Business Development
Priced In Corp. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 23, 2010. We have not commenced business operations since inception. Our principal business address is 154 Thames Street, Newport, Rhode Island 02840.. Our telephone number is (877) 435-5998. Our United States and registered statutory office is located at 2360 Corporate Circle, Suite 400, Henderson, NV 89074-7722, telephone number (702) 866-2500. We have a September 30 fiscal year end.
We were initially organized to develop a business platform that would operate a website that aggregates and consolidates group buying deals and allows users to view and link to available group buying deals in their area from various group buying companies including Groupon and LivingSocial. We own the URL pricedin.com, which is not operational and based upon management’s best estimate as at the date of this Report, will not become operational.
As of the date of this Report, we have no commitment from any investor or investment-banking firm to provide us with the necessary funding to develop the pricedin.com web site. Our inability to fund the development of our pricedin.com website has caused us to abandon our initial business strategy and seek other alternatives to maximize shareholder value. In connection therewith, we underwent a change in control on July 3, 2014, as described in the section below entitled “Change of Control”.
To date, we have engaged in discussions with a number of potential acquisition candidates to consummate a transaction (a “Transaction”) that will result in us acquiring a business from an acquired entity and the acquired entity obtaining a stock ownership in us that will provide the acquired entity with control over us and result in a change of control of us, including the replacement of our sole officer and director. The Transaction would likely be structured as a reverse merger into us or a transaction with a similar effect and require us to change our articles of incorporation and bylaws, provide certain negotiated rights to the acquired entity and require the resignation of our sole officer and director. We expect that these discussions will likely result in Transaction with one of these candidates promptly after the filing of this report and, in any event, in calendar 2014. If our Board of Directors elects to pursue a Transaction, or to otherwise seek out other opportunities, the integrity and reputation of any potential acquisition candidate will first be reviewed to ensure it meets with management’s standards. If we are successful in our attempt to acquire a company utilizing our securities as substantially all of the consideration to be paid, our current shareholders will incur substantial dilution of their percentage ownership. There can be no assurance that we will complete a Transaction or that a Transaction will be on terms that are advantageous to our stockholders.
Our Board of Directors has and intends to continue to effect due diligence evaluation of the business of the potential candidate, including review of its financial statements, cash flow, debt, location and other material aspects of the candidates’ business. If we do complete a Transaction, we will describe the acquisition in a filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K in accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

Change of Control
On July 3, 2014, we entered into a subscription agreement with Captain’s Crew LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CC”), pursuant to which we sold 5,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “CC Shares”) to CC for aggregate consideration of $50,000, or $.01 per share. Funds from the sale of the CC Shares will be utilized to fund our expenses. On the same date, Ken-Muen Le and Natalia Kozioura (the “Selling Stockholders”), the owners of an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock (the “SS Shares”), representing approximately 35.3% of our issued and outstanding common stock (after taking into account the sale and issuance of the CC Shares), entered into and performed a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholders sold the SS Shares to CC for aggregate consideration of $334,500, or approximately $0.074 per share. Upon completion of the purchase of the CC Shares and SS Shares, CC owned 9,500,000 shares, or approximately 74.5%, of the Registrant’s common stock. CC is 100% owned and managed by Jay Lasky. Funds utilized for the purchase of the CC Shares and the SS Shares were provided by a number of unaffiliated persons that funded an escrow for the purpose of effecting a change of control in anticipation of a future transaction a Transaction. Subsequent to July 3, 2014, the persons that funded CC also entered into agreements to acquire additional unrestricted shares of our common stock from certain non-affiliate shareholders. It is expected that all CC Shares and SS Shares will be cancelled in connection with the closing of a Transaction.
Regulatory Matters
We are unaware of and do not anticipate having to expend significant resources to comply with any governmental regulations. We are subject to the laws and regulations of those jurisdictions which are generally applicable to business operations, such as business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes. In general, the development and operation of our business is not subject to special regulatory and/or supervisory requirements.
Employees and Employment Agreements
As of the date of this Report, our sole employee is our President, Jay Lasky. Mr. Lasky is employed elsewhere and has the flexibility devote up to approximately 20 hours per week on our business. Mr. Lasky is not receiving any compensation from us for such services.
We have not entered into an employment agreement with our President, Mr. Lasky. We presently have no pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future.
The founder and original president, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, secretary, treasurer and director of the Company was Georges Roy, who resigned from the Company on September 20, 2012, and was replaced in these roles by Ken-Muen Le, who had been appointed a director of the Company on September 19, 2012. Mr. Le resigned from the Company on July 3, 2014 and was replaced by Jay Lasky. Although Mr. Lasky has no experience with running a public company, he has retained counsel and other professionals to assist with our reporting and other obligations as a public company and develop and implement an acquisition strategy or business plan .
Environmental Laws
We have not incurred and do not anticipate incurring any expenses associated with environmental laws.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
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 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our principal executive office is located at 154 Thames Street, Newport, Rhode Island 02840, and our telephone number is 877-435-5998. We do not have a lease agreement for this property. This property is leased by our Chief Executive Officer, Jay Lasky, and he allows us to use the space at no cost.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS, AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
No Public Market for Common Stock
There is currently no established public trading market for our securities and an active trading market in our securities may not develop or, if developed, may not be sustained. We have applied for and obtained the ticker symbol PRCD for quotation of our common stock on the OTC Markets OTCQB and on the OTC Bulletin Board. If for any reason our securities are not quoted on the OTC Markets OTCQB or OTC Bulletin Board or a public trading market does not otherwise develop, holders of our securities may have difficulty selling their shares should they desire to do so. No market makers have committed to becoming market makers for our common shares and it may be that none will do so.
General
As of September 30, 2014, our authorized capital stock consisted of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share. On October 1, 2014, we filed our First Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Nevada, pursuant to which we increased the total number of shares of capital stock which may be issued by the Company to two hundred twenty million (220,000,000), of which:
(i) Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shall be common stock, par value of $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one (1) vote on any matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of the stockholders; and
(ii) Twenty Million (20,000,000) shall be preferred stock, par value of $.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, including without limitation authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of any such series, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing.
On October 1, 2014, we effected a 1.23 for 1 stock split (23% stock dividend), effective October 1, 2014 and mailed directly to shareholders on October 3, 2014. Fractional shares were rounded up to the next whole share. Prior to such stock dividend, there were 12,750,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. After giving effect to such stock dividend, there were 15,682,500 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. All references in this Report on Form 10-K to shares issued, sold or outstanding during fiscal 2014 and through the date of this Report give effect to the 1.23 for 1 stock split.
Holders
As of November 4, 2014, there were 66 holders of our common stock.
3 |
Voting Rights
Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders including the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by law the holders of our common stock possess all voting power. According to our bylaws, in general, each director is to be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the directors at any meeting of our stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. According to our bylaws, in general, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on any matter (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum), except for the election of directors, is to be the act of our stockholders. Our bylaws provide that stockholders holding at least 10% of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, constitute a quorum at the meeting of our stockholders. Our bylaws also provide that any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of our stockholders may be taken without a meeting if authorized by the written consent of the stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power.
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Because the holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights and directors are generally to be elected by a majority of the votes casts with respect to the directors at any meeting of our stockholders for the election of directors, holders of more than fifty percent, and in some cases less than 50%, of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock can elect all of our directors.
Dividends
The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for dividends. Our Board of Directors is not obligated to declare a dividend. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, on our future earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent factors. We do not anticipate that cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.
As of September 30, 2014, we have not paid any dividends to shareholders other than the 1.23 for 1 stock split (23% stock dividend) detailed above. The declaration of any future dividend will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.
Miscellaneous Rights and Provisions
In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, whether voluntary or involuntary, each share of our common stock is entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of our common stock after satisfaction of all liabilities.
Our common stock is not convertible or redeemable and has no pre-emptive, subscription or conversion rights. There are no conversions, redemption, sinking fund or similar provisions regarding our common stock. Our common stock, after the fixed consideration thereof has been paid or performed, are not subject to assessment, and the holders of our common stock are not individually liable for the debts and liabilities of our company.
Our bylaws provide that our Board of Directors may amend our bylaws by a majority vote of our Board of Directors including any bylaws adopted by our stockholders, but our stockholders may from time to time specify particular provisions of these bylaws, which must not be amended by our Board of Directors. Our current bylaws were adopted by our Board of Directors. Therefore, our Board of Directors can amend our bylaws to make changes to the provisions relating to the quorum requirement and votes requirements to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Some features of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which are further described below, may have the effect of deterring third parties from making takeover bids for control of our company or may be used to hinder or delay a takeover bid. This would decrease the chance that our stockholders would realize a premium over market price for their shares of common stock as a result of a takeover bid. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws exempt our common stock from these provisions.
4 |
Acquisition of Controlling Interest
The Nevada Revised Statutes contain provisions governing acquisition of controlling interest of a Nevada corporation. These provisions provide generally that any person or entity that acquires certain percentage of the outstanding voting shares of a Nevada corporation may be denied voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless the holders of a majority of the voting power of the corporation, excluding shares as to which any of such acquiring person or entity, an officer or a director of the corporation, and an employee of the corporation exercises voting rights, elect to restore such voting rights in whole or in part. These provisions apply whenever a person or entity acquires shares that, but for the operation of these provisions, would bring voting power of such person or entity in the election of directors within any of the following three ranges:
● | 20% or more but less than 33 1/3%; | |
● | 33 1/3% or more but less than or equal to 50%; or | |
● | more than 50%. |
The stockholders or Board of Directors of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation from these provisions through adoption of a provision to that effect in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws exempt our common stock from these provisions.
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
There are no provisions in our articles of incorporation or our bylaws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our company and that would operate only with respect to an extraordinary corporate transaction involving our company or any of our subsidiaries, such as merger, reorganization, tender offer, sale or transfer of substantially all of its assets, or liquidation.
Stock Transfer Agent
Our transfer agent is VStock Transfer, 77 Spruce Street, Suite 201 Cedarhurst, NY 11598 and its phone number is (212) 828-8436.
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
As of the end of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, we do not have any compensation plan under which equity securities of the Company are authorized for issuance.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
As described In Part I, Item 1 above, on July 3, 2014, we entered into a subscription agreement with Captain’s Crew LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CC”), pursuant to which we sold 6,150,000 shares of our common stock (the “CC Shares”) to CC for aggregate consideration of $50,000, or $0.00813 per share. Such sale of such shares was exempt from the Registration Requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
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 AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.

Overview
We initially planned to develop a business platform that would operate a website that aggregates and consolidates group buying deals and allows users to view and link to available group buying deals in their area from various group buying companies including Groupon and LivingSocial. We own the URL pricedin.com, which is not operational and based upon management’s best estimate as at the date of this Report, will not become operational.
We are no longer pursuing our initial plan and are instead pursuing the acquisition of a business opportunity in order to provide potential liquidity and financial upside to our shareholders. We are actively engaged in discussions with a potential acquisition candidate to effect a Transaction.
To date, we have engaged in discussions with a number of potential acquisition candidates to consummate a transaction (a “Transaction”) that will result in us acquiring a business from an acquired entity and the acquired entity obtaining a stock ownership in us that will provide the acquired entity with control over us and result in a change of control of us, including the replacement of our sole officer and director. The Transaction would likely be structured as a reverse merger into us or a transaction with a similar effect and require us to change our articles of incorporation and bylaws, provide certain negotiated rights to the acquired entity and require the resignation of our sole officer and director. We expect that these discussions will likely result in Transaction with one of these candidates promptly after the filing of this report and, in any event, in calendar 2014. If we are successful in our attempt to acquire a company utilizing our securities as substantially all of the consideration to be paid, our current shareholders will incur substantial dilution of their percentage ownership. There can be no assurance that we will complete a Transaction or that a Transaction will be on terms that are advantageous to our stockholders.
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:
● | have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; | |
● | comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis); | |
● | submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and | |
● | disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. |
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.
We also qualify as a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Moreover, as a smaller reporting company and so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we benefit from similar exemptions and exclusions as an emerging growth company. In the event that we cease to be an emerging growth company as a result of a lapse of the five year period, but continue to be a smaller reporting company, we would continue to be subject to similar exemptions available to emerging growth company until such time as we were no longer a smaller reporting company.

Results of Operations
We did not have any revenues for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. We anticipate that we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future.
For the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 our operating expenses were $159,093 and $33,018, respectively.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2014 we had $22,597 in cash. On July 3, 2014, we sold 6,150,000 shares to Captain’s Crew LLC, our controlling stockholder for $0.00813 per share. In addition, on August 13, 2014, we received a capital contribution of $73,000 from Captain’s Crew LLC.
In our offering that was registered on Form S-1 (File No. 333-184897) and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2013, we raised $32,500 through the sale of an aggregate of 3,997,500 shares of our common stock. Such funds have been insufficient to pay for the development of our website and to date we have been unable to raise additional funds for the purpose of financing operations under our initial business plan. We are therefore no longer pursuing our initial business plan and are instead pursuing a potential Transaction with another business that we believe would be in the best interest of our shareholders. We are actively engaged in discussions with a potential acquisition candidate to effect a Transaction. If we are successful in our attempt to acquire a company utilizing our securities as part or all of the consideration to be paid, our current shareholders will incur dilution. There can be no assurance that we will complete a Transaction with such candidate or at all.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect or change on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
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.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Priced In Corp (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013 and the related statements of expenses, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013 and the related results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses from operation since inception. This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. | Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation |
Priced In Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 23, 2010. The Company has not commenced business operations.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize it assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the period ended September 30, 2014, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $192,915. 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 Company’s 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 and notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s fiscal year end is September 30.
b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the recoverability of long-lived assets, donated expenses and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. 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 Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
c) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
d) | Financial Instruments |
The fair values of financial instruments which include cash and amounts due to related parties were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or relatively short maturity of these instruments.
The Company’s operations and financing activities are conducted primarily in United States dollars, and as a result the Company is not subject to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. Management has determined that the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk.
e) | Loss per Share |
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 740 "Earnings per Share". ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
F-6 |
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
f) | Income Taxes |
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized
g) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
The Company adopted new accounting guidance on business combinations. This new accounting guidance broadens the scope of business combinations, extending its applicability to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. It broadens the fair value measurement and recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and interests transferred as a result of business combinations. It also expands on required disclosures to improve the statement users’ abilities to evaluate the nature and financial effects of business combinations. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
During the fiscal year September 30, 2014, the Company has elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The adoption of this ASU allows the Company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage.
3. | Related Party Transactions |
a) | The Company was indebted to the former President of the Company for $9,624 ($6 – September 30, 2013), which was non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on demand. The total balance $9,624 was forgiven during the year ended September 30, 2014. This is accounted for as a gain on forgiveness of loan because the loan was not considered to be related party on September 30, 2014 when the loan was forgiven. |
4. | Common Stock |
a) | During October 2013, the Company issued 3,997,500 common shares at $0.00813 per share for proceeds of $32,500. |
b) | On November 22, 2013, the Company issued 615,000 common shares at $0.00813 per share for proceeds of $5,000. |
c) | On November 22, 2013, the Company refunded $10,000 for the cancellation of 1,230,000 common shares. at $0.00813 per share |
d) | On July 10, 2014, the Company issued 6,150,000 common shares at $0.00813 per share for proceeds of $50,000. |
e) | On August 14, 2014, the Company received a capital contribution of $73,000. |
F-7 |
5. | Income Taxes |
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has incurred a net operating loss of $192,915 which will start to expire in 2032. The Company has adopted ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for non-capital losses carried forward. The potential benefit of the net operating loss has not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the loss carried forward in future years. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.
At September 30, 2014 and 2013, deferred tax assets consisted of the following
2014 $ | 2013 $ | ||||||||
Deferred tax assets | 65,591 | 14,772 | |||||||
Less: valuation allowance | (65,591 | ) | (14,772 | ) | |||||
Provision for income taxes | – | - |
6. | Subsequent Events |
a) | On October 1, 2014 Priced In Corp. filed its First Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Nevada, pursuant to which it increased the total number of shares of capital stock which may be issued by the Company to two hundred twenty million (220,000,000), of which: |
(i) | Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shall be common stock, par value of $.0001 per share. Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one (1) vote on any matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of the stockholders; and |
(ii) | Twenty Million (20,000,000) shall be preferred stock, par value of $.0001 per share. |
b) | On October 1, 2014, the Company effected an 1.23 for 1 stock split. The split was approved by the Company’s stockholders and Board of Directors. All the references to the Company’s common stock have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the forward split. |

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, due to the material weaknesses identified below.
● | Lack of proper segregation of duties due to limited personnel |
● | Lack of a formal review process that includes multiple levels of review |
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, we assessed, as of September 30, 2014, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment was based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment using those criteria, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2014, was not effective.
Internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:
○ | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; | |
○ | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization 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 statements. |
9 |
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We are in the continuous process of improving our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to eliminate these material weaknesses through improved supervision and training of our staff, but additional effort is needed to fully remedy these deficiencies. Management has engaged a Certified Public Accountant as a consultant to assist with the financial reporting process in an effort to mitigate some of the identified weaknesses. The Company intends on hiring the necessary staff to address the weaknesses once revenue has been realized.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Controls
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

None of our officers and/or directors have filed any bankruptcy petition, been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past five (5) years.
Conflicts of Interest
At the present time, the Company does not foresee any direct conflict between our officer’s and director’s other business interests and their involvement in Priced In.
During the past ten years, none of our officers and directors has been the subject of the following events:
1. | A petition under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law was filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer was appointed by a court for the business or property of such person, or any partnership in which he was a general partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he was an executive officer at or within two years before the time of such filing; |
2. | Conviction in a criminal proceeding or the subject of a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |

Committees
We do not have a standing audit committee of the Board of Directors. Management has determined not to establish an audit committee at present because of our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so. We do not have a financial expert serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B is beyond its limited financial resources and the financial skills of such an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in its financial statements at this stage of its development.
We have not formed a compensation committee or nominating and corporate governance committee as of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain Legal Proceedings
No director, nominee for director, or executive officer of the Company has appeared as a party in any legal proceeding material to an evaluation of his ability or integrity during the past five years.
Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
We do not have a class of equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act and therefore our directors, officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a class of our equity securities are not required to file reports of ownership or changes in ownership with the SEC or furnish us with copies of such reports.

Code of Ethics
We currently do not have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and director, including our Chief Executive Officer.

There are no other stock option plans, retirement, pension, or profit sharing plans for the benefit of our officers and director other than as described herein.
Equity Awards
We have not awarded any shares of stock, options or other equity securities to our directors or executive officers since our inception. We have not adopted any equity incentive plan. There were no grants of stock options since inception to the date of this Prospectus.
We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.
The Board of Directors of Priced In has not adopted a stock option plan. The Company has no plans to adopt such a plan but may choose to do so in the future. If such a plan is adopted, it may be administered by the Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee would have the power to modify, extend or renew outstanding options and to authorize the grant of new options in substitution therefore, provided that any such action may not impair any rights under any option previously granted. Priced In may develop an incentive based stock option plan for its officers and directors and may reserve up to 10% of its outstanding shares of common stock for that purpose.
Indemnification
Under our bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, harmless to the fullest legally permissible under the Nevada Revised Statutes from time to time against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by him in connection therewith. The Company shall advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
