Forward Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual Report”) contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. 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.
Forward looking statements are made based on management’s beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date the statements are made and we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change. 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.
The safe harbors of forward-looking statements provided by Section 21E of the Exchange Act are unavailable to issuers of penny stock. As we issued securities at a price below $5.00 per share, our shares are considered penny stock and such safe harbors set forth under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 are unavailable to us.
Our financial statements are stated in United States dollars 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 stock” refer to the common shares in our capital stock.
As used in this Annual Report, the terms “we,” “us,” “Company,” “our” and “Zev Ventures, Inc.” mean Zev Ventures, Inc., unless otherwise indicated.
THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL UNCERTAINTY ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE OUR OPERATIONS AS A GOING CONCERN.
In their audit report dated March 27, 2017 our auditors have expressed an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an ongoing business. Because our officers may be unwilling or unable to loan or advance any additional capital to us, we believe that if we do not raise additional capital, we may be required to suspend or cease the implementation of our business plan. See the Audited Financial Statements - Auditors Report”. Because our auditor has issued an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as a going concern, it may be more difficult to attract investors.

Corporate Information
Zev Ventures, Inc. (“Zev Ventures, Inc.” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 22, 2014, and our fiscal year end is December 31. The Company’s administrative address is 500C Grand St. Apartment 3G New York NY, 10002. Our telephone number is (631) 418-7044.
Zev Ventures, Inc. has begun generating revenues and continues to grow our inventory, however, our ability to fully implement our business plan requires us to raise additional funds for marketing and inventory.
Zev Ventures, Inc. has never declared bankruptcy, been in receivership, or involved in any kind of legal proceeding. The Company, its directors, officers, affiliates and promoters, have not and do not intend to enter into negotiations or discussions with representatives or owners of any other businesses or companies regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger.
The Company purchases sporting events and concert tickets in bulk directly from ticket vendors such as Ticketmaster and directly from the sports franchises and sports associations. The Company intends to focus on tickets offered by the following sports leagues: Major League Baseball (“MLB”), the National Basketball Association (“NBA”), the National Hockey League (“NHL”), and the National Football League (“NFL”). Teams in these leagues sell their tickets for below market price in order to insure games are sold out and to maintain customer loyalty. We intend to capitalize on this market inefficiency by reselling tickets purchased from primary vendors at the price actually commanded by the market on StubHub, a ticket resale marketplace.
Buying tickets on the primary market in bulk and months in advance of a given sporting event will permit us to resell those tickets on the secondary market at a 5-20% markup. For tickets to events in unusually high demand, such as playoff games or late-season games with potential playoff implications, the markup can be as high as 30-100%.
Our ability to profit on the resale of tickets depends highly on an event’s ability to sell out. Sold out events eliminate primary market vendors from our competition and decrease the supply of tickets, thus increasing our profits. Our ability to see real growth requires additional funding to ensure we have the ability to buy as many tickets as possible. If we focus on simply one team, we will not be able to ensure at least some playoff tickets.
Products
The Company purchases online tickets to sporting events that are held as inventory. Inventories are presented at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are expensed through cost of sales when sold. The company plans to utilize the specific identification method of accounting for inventory since each ticket is identifiable by a unique ticket number and is easy to track from purchase up to sale. As at December 31, 2017 the Company had $4,068 in inventories.
Competition
Barrier to entry in the industry is extremely low and there are many competitors. Since we’ve launched our website for the purpose of selling our tickets, our primary competition will be other ticket resellers on StubHub, Ticketliquidator.com, Ticketnetwork.com, Ticketsnow.com, and Vividseats.com.
For events that fail to sell out, we also compete with primary ticket vendors, such as TicketMaster.
As a small company compared to some of our competitors, they have significantly greater financial and marketing resources. They may have a greater advantage to negotiate higher commissions because of their more recognizable brand. There are no assurances that our efforts to compete in the marketplace will be successful.
Employees
Zev Ventures, Inc. has no employees. Our officer and director is donating his time to the development of the company, and intends to do whatever work is necessary in order to bring us to the point of greater revenues. We have no other employees, and do not foresee hiring any additional employees in the near future. Our officer and director will also be responsible for designing and developing our website and auction system, and managing our Internet Marketing efforts.
Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks
There are no aspects of our business plan that require a patent, trademark, or product license.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The following financial information summarizes the more complete historical financial information at the end of this Prospectus.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Report beginning on page F-1. The results shown herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, valuation of intangible assets and investments, share-based payments, income taxes and litigation. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results that differ from our estimates could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial position. We believe that the following significant accounting policies and assumptions may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than others.
Emerging Growth Company
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); |
4
● | 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.
Results of Operations
Our results of operations are presented below:
Results of Operations for the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2017 compared to the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2016.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 we incurred a net loss of $44,663, compared to a net loss of $34,580 during the same period in fiscal December 31, 2016. The increase in our net loss during the year ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to increased operating costs relating to salaries and other general and administrative expenses.
Our total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2017 were $38,436, compared to operating expenses of $27,670 during the same period in fiscal December 31, 2016.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2017, we had $3,410 in cash and $8,127 in total assets, and $85,633 in total liabilities as compared to $2,382 in cash, and $5,660 in total assets, and $60,503 in total liabilities as of December 31, 2016.
We are dependent on our revenues for cash flow, as we have minimized cash flow requirements through equity or debt financing. However, as we intend to expand operations, it is likely that we will require cash flow from financing in the future which could affect our ability to become cash flow positive.
For the year ending December 31, 2017 we used net cash of $45,602 in operating activities, compared to net cash used of $28,992 in operating activities during the same period in fiscal December 31, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2017, net cash of $46,630 was provided by financing activities compared to net cash of $26,200 during the same period in fiscal December 31, 2016.
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, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
5
Inflation
The amounts presented in the financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this item.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

ZEV VENTURES, INC
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended DECEMBER 31, 2017
F-1
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Zev Ventures, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Zev Ventures, Inc (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not established a source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs. As of December 31, 2017, the Company does not have sufficient working capital and cash resources to meet its planned business objectives. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan regarding these matters is also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Zev Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) is a Nevada Corporation, incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 22, 2014. The Company’s business plan involves purchasing tickets online for popular sport’s events and reselling them through online marketplaces.
Basis of Presentation
The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
These financial statements are presented in US dollars.
Fiscal Year End
The Corporation has adopted a fiscal year end of December 31.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies are set out below, these policies have been consistently applied to the period presented, unless otherwise stated:
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts or revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As at December 31, 2017 the Company has a deficit from operations of $99,806 and has not earned sufficient revenues to cover operating costs and has a working capital deficit of $77,506. The Company intends to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2018.
The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue operations, and development of its business plan. In response to these problems, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and equivalents include investments with initial maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash balances at credit-worthy financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000.
Inventory
The Company purchases online tickets to sporting events that are held as inventory. Inventories are presented at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are expensed through cost of sales when sold. The company plans to utilize the specific identification method of accounting for inventory since each ticket is identifiable by a unique ticket number and is easy to track from purchase up to sale. As at December 31, 2017 the Company has $4,068 in inventories.

Property, plant and equipment
The Company does not own any property, plant and equipment.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
Accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at amortized cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have occurred: persuasive evidence of an agreement with the customer exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the selling price is reasonably assured.
The Company recognizes revenue when the online sale has been processed as delivery has occurred, the selling price has been determined and proceeds have been collected.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists of the cost of merchandise sold to customers.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future consequences of differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases (temporary differences). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are recovered or settled. Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets are established when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Earnings per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “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 calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all potential dilutive common shares, which comprise options granted to employees. As December 30, 2017, the Company had no potentially dilutive shares.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.
The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:
- Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;
- Level 2: Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments);
- Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs (including assumptions in determining the fair value of certain investments).

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2015-11 “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” guidance which requires inventory within the scope of the standard to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Previous guidance required inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or market (where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin). The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. There were various other updates recently issued, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES
The benefit for income taxes for the periods ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 differ from the amount which would be expected as a result of applying the statutory tax rates to the losses before income taxes due primarily to changes in the valuation allowance to fully reserve net deferred tax assets.
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance against the full amount of the deferred tax asset due to management’s uncertainty about its realization. As of December 31, 2017 the Company had approximately $99,806 in tax loss carryforwards that can be utilized future periods to reduce taxable income, and expire by the year 2037.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of Zev Turetsky our President and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of December 31, 2017. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Zev Turetsky determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective at the reasonable assurance level.

Each director is elected at our annual meeting of shareholders and holds office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, or until his successor is elected and qualified.

The following table and text set forth the names and ages of all directors and executive officers.
Name | Age | Position | ||
Zev Turetsky | 27 | Chief Executive Officer, Director, Chairman, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer |
Zev Turetsky has held the position of Director since December 22, 2014, and the positions of President, CEO, CFO, Secretary, and Treasurer since December 22, 2014. The person named above are expected to hold their offices/positions until the next annual meeting of our stockholders. The officer and director set forth herein is our only officer, director, promoter and control person, as that term is defined in the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933.
Zev Turetsky, the President and Director of the Company, currently devotes up to 20 hours per week to Company matters. After receiving funding per our business plan, Mr. Turetsky will continue to devote up 30% of his time (20 hours per week) to manage the affairs of the Company.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
No executive officer or director of the corporation has been the subject of any order, judgment, or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, or any regulatory agency permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting him or her from acting as an investment advisor, underwriter, broker or dealer in the securities industry, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of an investment company, bank, savings and loan association, or insurance company or from engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with any such activity or in connection with the purchase or sale of any securities.
No executive officer or director of the corporation has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations) or is the subject of a criminal proceeding that is currently pending.
No executive officer or director of the corporation is the subject of any pending legal proceedings
Committees of the Board of Directors
We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committee of our Board of Directors. As such, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our Board of Directors does not currently have any member who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert. We believe that the cost of retaining such a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are a development stage business, we believe the services of an audit committee financial expert are not necessary at this time.
Code of Ethics
We do not currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial and accounting officers.
Potential Conflict of Interest
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our Board of Directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our sole director has the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, including his own, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our officers or sole director.
Board of Director’s Role in Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors assesses on an ongoing basis the risks faced by the Company. These risks include financial, technological, competitive and operational risks. The Board of Directors dedicates time at each of its meetings to review and consider the relevant risks faced at that time. In addition, since the Company does not have an Audit Committee, the Board of Directors is also responsible for the assessment and oversight of the Company’s financial risk exposures.
Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require the Company’s executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership, and annual reports concerning their ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company on Form(s) 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with and that there were no deficiencies.
