SPECTRAL CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Spectral Capital Corporation (the "Company" or "Spectral") was incorporated on September 13, 2000 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company was formerly in the business of developing internet search engine technology. From August 2010 until December 2012, the Company evaluated and sought out opportunities in the natural resource sector. Spectral acquired various interests in natural resource assets in Russia, Kazakhstan and Alberta, Canada. In December 2012, Spectral changed its corporate focus from the natural resource sector and back to information technology. Spectral has divested of its principal natural resource asset in Alberta, Canada and intends to divest any remaining natural resources in the near future and focus solely on acquiring and developing information technology. See Notes 5 and 6 for disclosures regarding the acquisition of certain technology and a cost investment.
Spectral is focused on the identification, acquisition, development, financing of technology that has the potential to transform existing industries. The Company looks for technology that can be protected through patents or laws regarding trade secrets. Spectral has acquired significant stakes in three technology companies currently and actively works with management to drive these companies toward increasing market penetration in their particular verticals. Spectral intends to own, in full or in part, technology companies whose founders and key management can take advantage of the deep networks and experience in technology development embodied in Spectral management.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Managements' Plans
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited operating history, has not generated revenues from our planned principal operations and has sustained substantial losses since inception. However, as of June 30, 2014, the Company has cash on hand of $457,204 and positive working capital of $370,639. The Company expects current cash on hand will be able to fund operations for a period in excess of 12 months. In view of this matter, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon growth of revenues.
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring adjustments. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Risks and Uncertainties
We have a limited operating history and have not generated revenues from our planned principal operations.
Our business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets and the general condition of the U.S. and world economy. A host of factors beyond our control could cause fluctuations in these conditions, including the political environment and acts or threats of war or terrorism. Adverse developments in these general business and economic conditions, including through recession, downturn or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and our results of operations.
7
SPECTRAL CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
We currently have no sales and limited marketing and/or distribution capabilities. We have limited experience in developing, training or managing a sales force and will incur substantial additional expenses if we decide to market any of our current and future products. Developing a marketing and sales force is also time consuming and could delay launch of our future products. In addition, we will compete with many companies that currently have extensive and well-funded marketing and sales operations. Our marketing and sales efforts may be unable to compete successfully against these companies.
Our industry is characterized by rapid changes in technology and customer demands. As a result, our products may quickly become obsolete and unmarketable. Our future success will depend on its ability to adapt to technological advances, anticipate customer demands, develop new products and enhance our current products on a timely and cost-effective basis. Further, our products must remain competitive with those of other companies with substantially greater resources. We may experience technical or other difficulties that could delay or prevent the development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhanced versions of existing products. Also, we may not be able to adapt new or enhanced products to emerging industry standards, and our new products may not be favorably received.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Spectral Holdings, Inc, and its 60% owned subsidiaries, Noot Holdings, Inc. from its date of incorporation of February 28, 2013, and Monitr Holdings, Inc. from its date of incorporation of December 1, 2013. Previously, the Company included the operations of Extractive Resources Corporation and Shamrock Oil and Gas, Ltd. Shamrock was 60% owned by Extractive Resources Corporation which were disposed on December 31, 2012. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
|
Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
|
Level 2
|
Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
|
Level 3
|
Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
|
8
SPECTRAL CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company doesn't have any assets or liabilities in which would be considered Level 2 or 3.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable from related party, investments in technologies, accounts payable and accrued expenses and related party advances. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.
The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include cost method investments when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition or in a nonmonetary exchange, and property and equipment and intangible assets that are written down to fair value when they are held for sale or determined to be impaired. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company acquired various technologies and an investment in a third party in which the investment is being treated under the cost basis of accounting. See Notes 4 and 5, for discussion regarding day one impairment charges related to these items. Excluding these items, the Company did not have any significant assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in periods subsequent to initial recognition.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basic Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Common share equivalents totalling 20,400,000 and 20,400,000 were outstanding at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, representing outstanding warrants and options, and were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Investment in Securities
The Company’s investments consisting of common shares of non-controlled entities are accounted for on the cost basis. Impairment losses will be recorded when indicators of impairment are present. See Note 5 for additional information.

Foreign Currency
The Company's functional currency is the United States Dollar. Transaction gains or losses related to balances denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result of these foreign currency transactions, the Company has recorded foreign currency losses of $8,382 and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915) Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation in June 2014 aims to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements for development stage entities by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements from development stage entities. Users of financial statements of development stage entities determined that the development stage entity distinction, the inception-to-date information, and certain other disclosures has limited relevance and is generally not useful. ASU 2014-10 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. We have elected early adoption of ASU 2014-10 for this filing. We have provided additional disclosures as described in the preceding paragraphs under ASC 275 Risks and Uncertainties as required by this ASU.
NOTE 3 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In prior years, the Company had limited activity related to mineral, oil and gas properties. All such activities and business in such properties were discontinued, sold/transferred either prior to or during the year ended December 31, 2012. The transactions do not have an impact on the financial statements being presented as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. There were no material assets or liabilities associated with discontinued operations.
Shamrock Oil & Gas Ltd
On December 31, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with Akoranga AG, a Company owned by the CEO of Spectral to transfer its ownership interests in the Shamrock Oil and Gas properties for $950,000, the value of Spectral’s contributions to the project to that date. In satisfaction of the purchase price, Akoranga agreed to offset liabilities of Spectral in the amount of $626,022. The balance owing Spectral of $323,978 is non-interest bearing and was to be repaid within a one year period. During the prior year, the due date of the receivable under the agreement was extended to December 31, 2014.

NOTE 4 – TECHNOLOGY ASSETS
On February 26, 2013, the Company, through its subsidiary, Spectral Holdings, Inc. signed a definitive Technology Acquisition Agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire mobile search engine and mobile sharing technology from Fiveseas Securities Ltd (“Fiveseas"). Under the Agreement, the Company issued Fiveseas 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Agreement called for the technology to reside within a newly formed entity called Noot Holdings, Inc.( “Noot”), a Delaware corporation, which the Company is a 60% owner of and Fiveseas is a 40% owner of. Fiveseas was granted a right of first refusal for any subsequent sale of the technology. The common shares were valued at $3,000,000 based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock as of the date of the agreement. In addition, the fair value assigned to the asset contributed by Fiveseas was $2,000,000, resulting in total intangible assets of $5,000,000 being recorded. The Company has recorded the value as an investment in technology as the in process development did not constitute a business. The Company records income/losses from Noot attributable to the percentage owned by Fiveseas as a non-controlling interest. The Company completed substantial development of the technology acquired during September 2013. Costs were capitalized in relation to the technology’s development through September 30, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2013, costs of approximately $115,000 were capitalized in connection with the continued development. Starting October 1, 2013, the Company began amortizing the asset over three years and expects to record annual amortization expense of approximately $1,705,000, $1,705,000 and $1,279,000 in 2014, 2015, and 2016, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company amortized $852,504 to depreciation and amortization on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
On December 1, 2013, the Company, through its subsidiary, Spectral Holdings, Inc. signed a definitive Technology Acquisition Agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire technology which enhances the way people find, consume, analyze, share and discuss financial news and topics, equities, commodities and currencies on the web from TL Global, Inc. (“TL Global"). Under the Agreement, the Company issued TL Global 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Agreement calls for the technology to reside within a newly formed entity called Monitr Holdings, Inc.( “Monitr”), a Delaware corporation, which the Company is a 60% owner of and TL Global is a 40% owner of. TL Global was granted a right of first refusal for any subsequent sale of the technology. The common shares were valued at $1,300,000 based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock as of the date of the agreement. In addition, the fair value assigned to the asset contributed by TL Global was $866,667, resulting in total assets of $2,166,667 being recorded. The Company has recorded the value as an investment in technology as the in process development did not constitute a business. The Company determined that the technology required extensive development in order to achieve technological feasibility, and expensed $2,161,667, the entire value of the investment except for $5,000 assigned to the website domain. The Company records income/losses from Monitr attributable to the percentage owned by TL Global as a non-controlling interest. Costs will be capitalized in relation to the technology’s development assuming they meet the qualifications.
NOTE 5 – COST INVESTMENT
On March 14, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 8% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Kontexto, Inc., (“Kontexto”) a Canadian corporation. The Company purchased the shares from Sargas Capital, Ltd., a minority shareholder in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares of the Company's common stock and warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.85 per share, expiring on March 13, 2015 (see Note 7). The Company's CEO is an officer of Sargas Capital, Ltd. but does not have any holdings in Sargas Capital, Ltd. The Company valued the common stock using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of the agreement and the warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company’s investment in 8% of the common shares, initially valued at $6,398,500, is accounted for on the cost basis. During the year ended March 31, 2013, a third party valuation specialist valued the investment in Kontexto using a hybrid between the market and income methods and determined that the fair value was $537,500. Accordingly, an impairment loss of $5,861,500 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
Spectral Capital Corporation (“Spectral” or the Company, also “We or Us”) is an exploration stage technology company focused on the identification, acquisition, development, financing of technology that has the potential to transform existing industries. We look for technology that can be protected through patents or laws regarding trade secrets. Spectral has acquired significant stakes in two technology companies currently and actively works with management to drive these companies toward increasing market penetration in their particular verticals. Spectral intends to own, in full or in part, technology companies whose founders and key management can take advantage of the deep networks and experience in technology development embodied in Spectral management.
CORPORATE HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Spectral Capital Corporation (“Spectral”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Extractive Resources Corporation (“Extractive Resources”). Extractive Resources was incorporated on January 21, 2011 under the laws of the state of Delaware.
Galaxy Championship Wrestling Inc. was incorporated on September 13, 2000 under the laws of the State of Nevada and changed its name to FUSA Capital Corporation on June 17, 2005. On March 7, 2005, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of FUSA Technology Investments, Inc., formed on February 9, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. For accounting purposes, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization such that the historical transactions of the acquired company were carried forward.
On July 27, 2010, the Company changed its name to Spectral Capital Corporation.
The Company was formerly in the business of developing internet search engine technology. From August 2010 until December 2012, the Company evaluated and sought out opportunities in the natural resource sector. Spectral acquired various interests in natural resource assets in Russia, Kazakhstan and Alberta, Canada. In December, 2012, Spectral changed its corporate focus from the natural resource sector and back to information technology. Spectral has divested of its principal natural resource asset in Alberta, Canada and intends to divest any remaining natural resources in the near future and focus solely on acquiring and developing information technology.
On February 26, 2013, the Company formed an entity called Noot Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which the Company will be a 60% owner, in order to acquire mobile search engine technology. Under the Agreement, the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares of Spectral Capital Corporation, par value $0.0001.

Spectral also issued warrants to purchase 1,650,000 common shares, par value $0.0001 to the purchasers at an exercise price of $0.80 per share. The warrants expire on March 6, 2015.
On March 14, 2013, the Company purchased 8% of the issued and outstanding shares of Kontexto, Inc., a Canadian corporation. Spectral purchased the shares from Sargas Capital, Ltd. , a minority shareholder, in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares of Spectral stock, par value $0.0001 and warrants to purchase 5,000,000 common shares at $0.85 per share, expiring on March 13, 2015. The Company's CEO is an officer of Sargas Capital, Ltd. but does not have any holdings in Sargas Capital, Ltd.

Under the Agreement, the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares of Spectral Capital Corporation, par value $0.0001.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition and Liquidity
We are currently engaged in a technology development business and have exited natural resources.
Our consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our obligations in the normal course of business. In the period from February 9, 2005 (Date of Inception) to June 30, 2014, the has generated an approximate net loss of $23,600,000 resulting from costs of general and administrative expenses, website development, stock compensation, impairments, expenses on oil and gas properties and interest expenses.
Cash and Working Capital
The Company's cash balance as of June 30, 2014 was $457,204, as compared to the cash balance of $786,137 of December 31, 2013.
15
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014 totalled $683,121, compared to $6,650,900 for the similar prior year period. The major expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2014 were for stock based compensation, research and development, technology amortization and general and administrative expenses. The major expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2013 were for stock based compensation, impairment of investments, and general and administrative expenses.
In a company like Spectral that has not produced significant revenue from its operations, quarter-to-quarter expense comparisons can be difficult, especially as we have recently entered the technology application sector. We had a small amount of revenues from our oil production activities in 2012, but have since disposed of these and have no current revenue.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 totalled $1,600,502, compared to $7,387,908 for the similar prior year period. The major expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2014 were for stock based compensation, research and development, technology amortization and general and administrative expenses. The major expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2013 were for stock based compensation, impairment of investments, and general and administrative expenses.
In a company like Spectral that has not produced significant revenue from its operations, quarter-to-quarter expense comparisons can be difficult, especially as we have recently entered the technology application sector. We had a small amount of revenues from our oil production activities in 2012, but have since disposed of these and have no current revenue.
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash used by operating activities, consisting mostly of loss from operations, was $341,364 compared to $169,922 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in net cash used by operating activities is a result of increased expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2014 in connection with the continued development of technology products within our Noot and Monitor subsidiaries. The subsidiaries was formed in 2013 and had little or no activity during the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $12,431 and $1,144,627 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we received approximately $928,000 in proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock. Such proceeds have been used to fund our operations.
We believe that our current financial resources are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next year, given that our current cash balance is in excess of our expected minimum cash expenditures, provided we do not significantly increase our development expenses and develop our portfolio companies as cash permits. We are seeking to raise additional capital though private equity and debt financings. As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2014, we do not have any specific financing terms from any particular financier. We are currently engaged in a number of discussions with potential financiers. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure these financings, or, if we are able to secure these financings, that it will be on terms favourable, or even acceptable, to us. If necessary, we may explore strategic alternatives, including a merger, asset sale, joint venture or other comparable transactions in order to maximize the value of our assets, though we have no present plans, intentions or negotiations toward such arrangements. Any inability to obtain additional financing would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our short-term prospects are promising given our success to date in securing the two portfolio companies, Noot and Kontexto and the success that Kontexto has enjoyed in the market to date. We believe we will experience significant operational and financial growth from these and other portfolio companies during the next 12 months.
16
Future Financings
We anticipate that we will pursue additional financing and that the financing would be an equity financing achieved through the sale of our common stock. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure these financings, or, if we are able to secure these financings, that it will be on terms favourable, or even acceptable, to us.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
PLAN OF OPERATION
Spectral is focused on the identification, acquisition, development, financing of technology that has the potential to transform existing industries. We look for technology that can be protected through patents or laws regarding trade secrets. Spectral has acquired significant stakes in two technology companies currently and actively works with management to drive these companies toward increasing market penetration in their particular verticals. Spectral intends to own, in full or in part, technology companies whose founders and key management can take advantage of the deep networks and experience in technology development embodied in Spectral management.
Companies within the technology development and commercialization sector have a variety of areas of principal competence. Some companies focus on aggressively developing a portfolio of intellectual property and then licensing that property and defending it through litigation. Others focus on a technology embodied in a software product or device which has the potential to be acquired by businesses and/or consumers at a profit. Others seek to develop and commercialize technology that attracts a significant number of users who can be monetized through advertising. Of course, technology development and commercialization is a vast and complex field. Spectral has had an initial focus on information technology with a direct value proposition to businesses or consumers.
Like all companies that seek to develop a portfolio of high impact technologies and the corporate and organizational structure to monetize those technologies, Spectral must do the specialized work of lowering the risk profile of the commercialization of a particular technology to the point where it is able to grow at a reasonable customer acquisition cost.
We have a deep management expertise, developed knowledge within the search, media and analytics fields, attractive positioning, the ability to identify and close transactions quickly and a willingness to invest in technology that is mispriced relative to its economic potential. Although the 2008 financial crisis has abated and technology companies generally are enjoying some robust growth, it still remains a challenge for early stage technology companies to find the financial and human resources to foster required growth. This challenge creates an environment where Spectral can seek out and find high impact technology and invest in or acquire this technology at reasonable valuations.
17
Our business differs from those companies whose capital reserves, successful previous ability to monetize technology and scale, efficiencies and existing customer base allow them to select and develop technology by flooding the technology with financial and human resources. Spectral’s approach is much more targeted. We only develop technology that we believe has a very specific fit with our expertise and limited capital. We develop technology that does not require massive investments in sale and marketing in order to reach an initial audience.
We also intend to continue to identify and acquire desirable technologies throughout the United States, Canada, India and elsewhere within other regions in as much as we are able to acquire and develop such technologies under similar terms and conditions to those of the two portfolio companies we have acquired interests in.
We anticipate spending significant sums on hiring a senior management team with substantial technology experience, including a VP of Information Security and a VP of Sales and Marketing. These executive expenditures, together with expenses related to the development of our portfolio companies technology and expenses we anticipate over the next 12 months, mean that we could spend as much as $5-$10 million over the next 12 months or more, depending on the availability and timing of financing.
Our twelve-month plan projects us to accomplish the following steps:
o
|
Continue to grow Kontexto’s customer base around the world and increase revenues and earnings;
|
o
|
Grow the user base for the Noot Mobile Application;
|
o
|
Launch the Monitr product currently being developed;
|
o
|
Build the necessary infrastructure and complete the necessary staff expertise to close on several additional portfolio company purchases/investments in the next 12 to 24 months ;
|
o
|
Complete one or more private equity placements to provide funding for developing of our current technologies and the acquisition of additional portfolio companies;
|
o
|
Hire a senior management team with a proven track record at the development of high growth, high impact technology.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Currency and Credit Risk. The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company’s reporting currency is the US Dollar. We previously undertook mineral and oil development activities in Canada and Kazakhstan and currently undertake financial and consultative activities in Europe, which involve transactions in the Canadian dollar, Euro and Swiss Franc, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including prepaid expenses, related party receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities at June 30, 2014 approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
18
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
As required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014 and that they do not allow for information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive and Principal Accounting & Financial Officers as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The material weaknesses were first identified in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 in which related to a lack of an accounting staff resulting in a lack of segregation of duties necessary for an effective system of internal control. The weakness in segregation of duties will continue to exist until such time as management can retain internal staff to properly segregate duties.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
