Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Market Information
5
There is a limited public market for our common shares. Our common shares are not quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board at this time. Trading in stocks quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may be unrelated to a companys operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our common stock.
OTC Bulletin Board securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTC Bulletin Board securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks. OTC Bulletin Board issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.
As of June 30, 2014, no shares of our common stock have traded.
Number of Holders
As of June 30, 2014, the 6,100,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock were held by a total of 27 shareholders of record.
Dividends
No cash dividends were paid on our shares of common stock during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2014. We have not paid any cash dividends since our inception and do not foresee declaring any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this annual report.

Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Our audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
6
We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.
We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2013.
Our net loss for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 was $15,712 compared to a net loss of $274 during the period from May 24, 2013 (Inception) ended June 30, 2013. During fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not generated any revenue.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we incurred operating expenses of $525 and professional fees of $15,187 compared to operating expenses of $274 incurred during the period from May 24, 2013 (Inception) ended June 30, 2013.
Expenses incurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 increased primarily due to the increased scale and scope of business operations. Operating expenses generally include corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, marketing, and consulting costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 and 2013
As of June 30, 2014, our total assets were $11,138 and our total liabilities were $1,124 comprised of notes payable to related parties.
As of June 30, 2013, our total assets were $5,200 comprised of cash and cash equivalents. Stockholders equity increased from $4,726 as of June 30, 2013 to $10,014 as of June 30, 2014.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. Net cash flows used in operating activities was $15,712 for the period ended June 30, 2014, $274 for the period ended June 30, 2013 and $ 15,986 from inception on May 24, 2014 to June 30, 2014.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
We have financed our operations primarily from either advancements or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, net cash from financing activities was $21,000 consisting of proceeds received from issuances of common stock. For the year ended June 30, 2013, net cash from financing activities was $5,474 consisting of $5,000 from issuance of common shares and $474 from director loans. For the period from inception on May 24, 2013 to June 30, 2014, net cash provided by financing activities was $26,474 consisting of $26,000 of proceeds received from issuances of common stock and $474 from director loans.
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.
7
Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next six months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) acquisition of software; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.
MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any material commitments.
PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT
We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any offbalance 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 investors.
GOING CONCERN
The independent auditors' report accompanying our June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Marika Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Marika Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for the periods then ended, and for the period from May 24, 2013 (inception) to June 30, 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 audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 Marika Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended and for the period from May 24, 2013 (inception) through June 30, 2014 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #2 to the financial statements, the company has had significant operating losses; a working capital deficiency and its need for new capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note #2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 6 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property. An officer has provided office services without charge. There is no obligation for the officer to continue this arrangement.

NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $15,986 that may be available to reduce future years taxable income in varying amounts through 2031. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.
The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:
| June 30, 2014 | June 30, 2013 |
Federal income tax benefit attributable to: | | |
Current Operations | $ 5,435 | $ 93 |
Less: valuation allowance | (5,435) | (93) |
Net provision for Federal income taxes | $ 0 | $ 0 |
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:
| June 30, 2014 | June 30, 2013 |
Deferred tax asset attributable to: | | |
Net operating loss carryover | $ 5,435 | $ 93 |
Less: valuation allowance | (5,435) | (93) |
Net deferred tax asset | $ 0 | $ 0 |
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $15,986 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

None.
Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
Managements Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)). The Companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 using the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.
1.
We do not have an Audit Committee While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the managements view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over the Companys financial statement. Currently the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee, and does not include a member that is considered to be independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over managements activities.
2.
We did not maintain appropriate cash controls As of June 30, 2014, the Company has not maintained sufficient internal controls over financial reporting for the cash process, including failure to segregate cash handling and accounting functions, and did not require dual signature on the Companys bank accounts. Alternatively, the effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that the Company had limited transactions in their bank accounts.
3.
We did not implement appropriate information technology controls As at June 30, 2014, the Company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Companys data or off-site storage of data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.
Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the companys internal controls.
As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation we conducted of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report.

Our president will be devoting approximately 50% of his business time to our operations. Once we expand operations, and are able to attract more merchants and customers, Aleksandrs Sviks has agreed to commit more time as required. Because Aleksandrs Sviks will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to him. As a result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended which could result in a lack of revenues and a cessation of operations.
AUDIT COMMITTEE
