Corporate History

 

Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 22, 2009, as Golden Fork Corporation (“Golden Fork”).

 

On February 17, 2012, Alida Heyer (the “Seller” or “Ms. Heyer”), the holder of 78.7% of the voting rights of the Company, entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with TRIG Special Purpose 1, LLC, a Nevada Corporation, (“TRIG”) to sell to TRIG 2,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company. The Shares represented all of the outstanding shares held by the Seller. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, TRIG paid the Seller $240,000 for the Shares in a private transaction. As a result of the transaction, the Company became a 78.7% owned subsidiary of TRIG (the “Change of Control”).

 

On March 16, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change its name from Golden Fork to Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. Upon filing of the Amendment, the Company began its operations in the staffing sector.

 

 

On April 13, 2012, the Company received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to effect its name change (as contemplated by the Amendment) and to change its trading symbol from “GDNF” to STAF”. Simultaneously therewith, the Company received approval to conduct a forward split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of one for three (the “Forward Split”). Following the Forward Split, the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock increased from 2,540,000 to 7,620,000.

 

On July 31, 2012, the Company formed Staffing 360 Alliance, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary (“Staffing Alliance”), in the State of Nevada. Staffing Alliance commenced operations in September 2012.

 

On April 26, 2013, the Company completed its first acquisition when it purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of The Revolution Group, Ltd. (“TRG”) pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “TRG Purchase Agreement”), dated March 21, 2013, entered into by and among the Company, TRG and the shareholders of TRG (the “TRG Shareholders”). As a result of the acquisition (the “TRG Acquisition”), TRG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The TRG Acquisition is described in detail below.

 

Recent Developments

 

On June 28, 2013, the Company filed an Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation in Nevada increasing the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company was authorized to issue from 75,000,000 shares to 200,000,000 shares and authorizing the Company to issue 20,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, having such rights, designations, preferences and privileges as the Board of Directors of the corporation determines from time to time in its sole discretion.

Business Model and Acquisitions

 

Staffing 360 is an emerging public company in the international staffing sector engaged in the acquisition of domestic and international staffing companies. As part of its highly targeted consolidation model, Staffing 360 is pursuing a broad spectrum of staffing companies supporting the IT, financial, accounting, healthcare and cyber security industries with a particular emphasis on cyber terrorism. The Company is also developing a division focused on veterans’ staffing. In accordance with our business model, on April 26, 2013, we consummated the TRG Acquisition, which was our first acquisition of a suitable staffing company. Since the TRG Acquisition we have engaged in acquisition discussions with several other suitable, mature operating staffing companies and on August 14, 2013, we executed a definitive agreement with NewCSI, Inc. (“NCSI”), which is described in detail below.

  

We obtained our first letter of intent on February 21, 2012 in connection with the Change of Control. TRIG Capital Group, LLC (“TRIG Capital Group”), now an affiliate of the Company, had executed a letter of intent to acquire IDC Technologies, Inc., a Silicon Valley IT staffing and business processing outsourcing company (“IDC” and the letter of intent, the “IDC LOI”). Following the Change of Control, TRIG Capital Group assigned the IDC LOI to the Company.

 

On February 11, 2013, the Company negotiated and entered into a new binding letter of intent with IDC (the “New IDC LOI”). The New IDC LOI was entered into by and among the Company, IDC and Prateek Gattani, the sole shareholder of IDC (the “IDC Shareholder”). Pursuant to the New IDC LOI, the Company will, upon the successful negotiation and execution of a stock purchase agreement and the fulfillment of certain other closing conditions, acquire all of the issued and outstanding stock of IDC and IDC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company will pay an aggregate purchase price of approximately $13,400,000 (the “IDC Purchase Price”). Of the Purchase Price, 50% will be payable in cash to the IDC Shareholder and the remaining 50% will be paid in the form of a promissory note (the “IDC Note”). The IDC Note will accrue interest at a rate of 8% per annum with forty two monthly payments, to begin six months after the IDC Closing, and quarterly thereafter. In addition to the Purchase Price, the Company will assume approximately $5,500,000 of liabilities and will pay the IDC shareholder a cash sum equal to five percent of IDC’s gross profit for the twelve months prior to the closing date and ten percent of IDC’s gross profit for the forty two months following the closing. Further, upon a successful completion of this transaction, the Company will employ the IDC Shareholder pursuant to an executive management agreement. As of the date hereof, the Company and IDC have not yet successfully negotiated a purchase agreement and there is no assurance that the Company and IDC will be able to close this transaction.

 

On April 26, 2013, the Company consummated the TRG Acquisition pursuant to the TRG Purchase Agreement dated March 21, 2013, entered into by and among the Company, TRG and the TRG Shareholders. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company to the TRG Shareholders was $2,509,342 (the “TRG Purchase Price”), payable as follows: at the closing of the TRG Acquisition (the “TRG Closing”) the Company made cash payments to the TRG Shareholders in an aggregate of $907,287 and the Company paid the remaining $410,055 of the TRG Purchase Price by issuing to the TRG Shareholders 512,569 restricted shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.80 per share. In addition to the TRG Purchase Price, the Company will pay to the TRG Shareholders performance based compensation in an amount in cash equal to the following percentages of TRG’s gross profit (as defined in the TRG Purchase Agreement) from the date of TRG Closing through the end of the sixteenth quarter (the “TRG Earn Out Period”) not to exceed a total of $1,500,000: (i) 20% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit up to and including an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the TRG Earn Out Period; plus (ii) 7% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit, if any, in excess of an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the TRG Earn Out Period. The Company estimates the performance based compensation to total $1,192,000. The earn-out liability is calculated in accordance with the terms of the TRG Purchase Agreement. The liability was valued by a third party financial advisory firm based on management's best estimates of the projected financial results of TRG over the next four years. The Company adjusts the earn-out liability on a quarterly basis based on actual results. As a result of the Acquisition, TRG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. TRG now operates under the name Cyber 360 Solutions (“Cyber 360”).

Recent Developments

 

On August 14, 2013, the Company executed a definitive stock purchase agreement by and among the Company, NewCSI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NCSI”), and the shareholders of NCSI (the “NCSI Shareholders” and the stock purchase agreement, the “NCSI Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the NCSI Purchase Agreement, the Company will acquire from NCSI (the “NCSI Acquisition”) 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Control Solutions International, Inc., a Florida corporation (“CSI”). Closing will be held within forty five (45) days from the date on which RBSM, LLP, the Company’s auditor, completes its audit of certain financial statements of NCSI and its wholly-owned subsidiary Canada Control Solutions International, Inc., a British Columbia company (“CCSI”). The aggregate consideration to be paid by the Company to the NCSI Shareholders for the NCSI Acquisition will be $409,000 plus (i) the 80% of the accounts receivable of CSI and CCSI that have not been outstanding for more than 90 days as of the closing date (the “Eligible Accounts Payment”) and (ii) an amount equal to the prepaid expenses and prepaid rent of the Company as of the closing date (the “Prepaid Expenses Payment” and together with the $409,000 and the Eligible Accounts Payment, the “NCSI Purchase Price”), payable as follows at the closing: (a) the Company will make cash payments to the NCSI Shareholders in an aggregate of $205,000 plus (i) the Eligible Accounts and (ii) the Prepaid Expenses Payment; and (b) the Company will pay the remaining $204,000 of the Purchase Price by issuing to the NCSI Shareholders 136,000 restricted shares of Common Stock of the Company at $1.50 per share. In addition to the NCSI Purchase Price, the Company will pay to the NCSI Shareholders performance based compensation in cash equal to 20% of the amount of NCSI’s and CCSI’s consolidated gross profit from the closing date through the end of the sixteenth (16th) quarter following the closing date (the “Earn Out Period”) not to exceed a total of $2,100,000. As a result of the NCSI Acquisition, NCSI will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase has not yet closed and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to close the transaction.

 

Limited Operating History

 

The Company has limited financial history and has only recently demonstrated that it will be able to expand its business. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods.

 

There is limited historical financial information on which to base an evaluation of our performance. Through Staffing Alliance, we began to generate revenues in October 2012. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Among other risks, our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including executing on our roll-up strategy, limited capital resources and possible cost overruns.

 

We will be seeking additional debt and equity financing in the future in order to obtain the capital required to implement our business plan. We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If financing is not available to us on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing, if received, will result in additional dilution to our existing shareholders.

 

Industry Background

 

The staffing industry is divided into three major segments: temporary help services, professional employer organizations and placement agencies. Temporary help services provide workers for limited periods, often to substitute for absent permanent workers or to help during periods of peak demand. These workers, who are employees of the temporary help agency, will generally fill clerical, technical, or industrial positions. Professional employer organizations (PEOs), sometimes known as employee leasing agencies, contract to provide workers to customers for specific functions, often related to human resource management. In many cases, customers’ employees are hired by a PEO and then leased back to the customer. Placement agencies, sometimes referred to as executive recruiters or headhunters, find workers to fill permanent positions at customer companies. These agencies may specialize in placing senior managers, midlevel managers, technical workers, or clerical and other support workers.

 

 

6
 

 

The Company considers itself to be a temporary staffing company within the broader staffing industry. However, the Company does conduct permanent placements at the request of existing clients.

 

Staffing companies identify potential employees through advertising and referrals, and the companies interview, test and counsel workers before sending them to the customer for approval. Pre-employment screening can include skills assessment, drug tests and criminal background checks. Most staffing agencies provide some sort of training, often involving data entry and basic computer skills. The personnel staffing industry has been radically changed by the Internet. Many employers list available positions with one or several Internet personnel sites like monster.com or jobs.com, and on their own site. Personnel agencies operate their own sites and often still work as intermediaries by helping employers accurately describe job openings and screening candidates who submit applications.

 

Job growth drives demand for the personnel staffing industry. The profitability of individual companies depends on good marketing and availability of qualified employees. Large companies enjoy economies of scale in marketing and back-office operations. Small companies can compete successfully by specializing in an industry or a job function.

 

To a great extent, clients follow the seasonal retail cycles but precede them by 2-3 months. What occurs are two distinct “peak” seasons which fall in August-October, preceding Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. The second is April-May, preceding the summer season. Both provide extended spikes to the baseline revenue average of companies in the staffing sector.

 

Major end-use customers include businesses from a wide range of industries. Marketing involves direct sales presentations, referrals from existing clients and advertising. Agencies compete both for customers and workers. Depending on market supply and demand at any given time, agencies may allocate more resources either to finding potential employers or potential workers. Permanent placement agencies work either on a retainer or a contingency basis. Clients may retain an agency for a specific job search or on contract for a specific period. Temporary help services charge customers a fixed price per hour or a standard markup on prevailing hourly rates.

  

For many staffing companies, demand is lower late in the fourth calendar quarter and early in the first calendar quarter, partly because of holidays, and higher during the rest of the year. Staffing companies may have high receivables from customers. Temp agencies and PEOs must manage a high cash flow and may maintain high cash balances because they funnel payroll payments from employers.

 

Staffing companies are regulated by the US Department of Labor (DOL) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), and often by state authorities. At issue is the relationship between the agency and the temporary employees, or employee candidates. Many federal anti-discrimination rules regulate the type of information that employment firms can request from candidates or provide to customers about candidates. PEOs are often considered co-employers along with the client, but the PEO is responsible for employee wages, taxes and benefits. State regulation aims to ensure that PEOs provide the benefits they promise to workers.

 

Demand for personnel staffing services is strongest in areas with strong employment growth, and geographic location can determine an agency's success in attracting employees and employers. Customers generally prefer a staffing service that can provide workers for all of their office locations. Temporary employee candidates are often unwilling to relocate for a position.

 

The revenue of personnel agencies depends on the number of jobs they fill, which in turn depends on economic growth. During economic slowdowns, many client companies stop hiring altogether. Internet employment sites expand a companies' ability to find workers without the help of traditional agencies. Personnel agencies often work as intermediaries, helping employers accurately describe job openings and screen candidates. Increasing the use of sophisticated, automated job description and candidate screening tools could make many traditional functions of personnel agencies obsolete. Free social networking sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook are also becoming a common way for recruiters and employees to connect without the assistance of a staffing agency.

 

To avoid large placement agency fees, big companies may use in-house personnel staff, current employee referrals, or human resources consulting companies to find and hire new personnel. Because placement agencies typically charge a fee based on a percentage of the first year's salary of a new worker, companies with many jobs to fill have a large financial incentive to avoid agencies.

 

 

7
 

 

Many personnel agencies are small and may depend heavily on a few big customers for a large portion of revenue. Large customers may lead to increased revenues, but also expose agencies to higher risks. When major accounts experience financial hardships, and have less need for temporary employment services, agencies stand to lose large portions of revenue.

 

The loss of a staff member who handles a large volume of business can result in a large loss of revenue for an agency. Individual staff members, rather than the agency itself, usually develop strong relationships with customers. Staff members who move to another agency are often able to move customers with them.

 

Some of the best opportunities for temporary employment are in industries traditionally active in seasonal cycles, such as construction, wholesale and retail. However, seasonal demand for workers creates cash flow fluctuations throughout the year. Cash flow imbalances also occur because agencies must pay workers even though they haven't been paid by customers.

 

Many personnel firms have been accused of employment discrimination based on age, race, religion, or sex. Age discrimination is the fastest-growing type of employment charge filed with the US EEOC. Allegations of discrimination by temporary workers results in high insurance costs for staffing agencies.

 

Because worker leasing and the large-scale use of temporary workers are relatively new phenomena, federal and state labor laws do not directly address many of the issues these employer-employee relationships create. However, because clients have used PEOs to evade labor laws in the past, regulations are being tightened. PEOs are regulated in an increasing number of states, including Florida and Texas, where a significant number operate.

 

Trends in the Staffing Business

 

Startup costs for a personnel agency are very low. Individual offices can be highly profitable, but consolidation is driven mainly by the opportunity for large agencies to develop national relationships with big customers. Some agencies expand by starting new offices in promising markets, but most prefer to buy existing independent offices with proven staff and an existing customer roster.

 

Temporary workers are becoming such a large factor at some companies that personnel agency staff sometimes work at the customer's site to recruit, train, and manage. Agencies try to match the best qualified employees for the customer's needs, but often provide additional training specific to that company, such as instruction in the use of proprietary software.

 

Some personnel consulting firms and human resource departments are increasingly using psychological tests to evaluate potential job candidates. Psychological, or liability, testing has gained popularity due to fraud scandals. In addition to stiffer background checks, headhunters check the credit of prospective employees.

 

We believe the trends of outsourcing entire departments and dependence on temporary and leased workers will expand opportunities for personnel agencies. Taking advantage of their expertise in assessing worker capabilities, some agencies manage clients’ entire human resource functions. Human resources outsourcing (HRO) may include management of payroll, tax filings, and benefit administration services. HRO may also include recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), where an agency manages all recruitment activities for a client.

 

New online technology is improving staffing efficiency. For example, some online applications coordinate workflow for staffing agencies, their clients and temporary workers, and allow agencies and customers to share work order requests, submit and track candidates, approve timesheets and expenses, and run reports. Interaction between candidates and potential employers is increasingly being handled online.

 

Initially viewed as rivals, some Internet job-search companies and traditional employment agencies are now collaborating. While some Internet sites do not allow agencies to use their services to post jobs or look through resumes, others find that agencies are their biggest customers, earning the sites a large percentage of their revenue. Some staffing companies contract to help client employers find workers online.

Competition

 

The staffing industry is characterized by a large number of competing companies in a fragmented sector. Major competitors also exist across the sector, but as the industry affords low barriers to entry, new entrants are constantly introduced to the marketplace.

 

The top layer of competitors are large corporate staffing and employment companies which have revenues of $75 million or more. The next (middle) layer of the competition consists of medium-sized entities with revenues of $1 million or more. The largest portion of the marketplace is the bottom rung of this competitive landscape consisting of small individual-sized or family-run operations. As barriers to entry are low, sole proprietors, partnerships and small entities routinely enter the industry.

 

Employees

 

We currently employ fourteen full-time employees. Three of our employees are employed in general or administrative functions at our headquarters in New York, New York. The remaining eleven of our employees, all of whom worked for TRG prior to our acquisition of TRG, are employed in our Massachusetts office. This does not include persons that we place with third party employers.

Overview

 

Staffing 360 was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 22, 2009, with the name “Golden Fork Corporation. On March 16, 2012, the Company filed the Amendment to change its name from Golden Fork Corporation” to Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc.

 

On February 15, 2012, TRIG Capital Group, an affiliate of the Company, executed a IDC LOI to acquire IDC. On February 21, 2012, TRIG Capital Group assigned the IDC LOI to the Company.

 

In March 2012, the Company commenced its operations in the international staffing sector pursuant to a consolidation business model.

 

On July 31, 2012, the Company formed Staffing Alliance. In September 2012, Staffing Alliance commenced operations and in October 2012, we began generating revenues. Staffing Alliance is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Currently, Staffing Alliance provides temporary staffing solutions to 4 customers and payroll processing services to one customer.

 

 

 

 

12
 

 

 

On February 11, 2013, the Company negotiated and entered into the New IDC LOI with IDC. As of the date hereof, we have been unable to finalize a definitive stock purchase agreement with IDC and there is no assurance that we will be able to close this transaction.

 

On April 26, 2013, the Company consummated the TRG Acquisition, pursuant to the TRG Purchase Agreement dated March 21, 2013, entered into by and among the Company, TRG and the shareholders of TRG. As a result of the Acquisition, TRG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and now operates under the name “Cyber 360 Solutions” (see note 7).

  

Limited Operating History

 

We intend to acquire domestic and international staffing companies. To date, we operate two entities, Staffing Alliance and Cyber 360 and have been negotiating for other potential acquisitions. We began generating revenues in October 2012. We have generated only minimal revenue to date from these entities and have not demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business. Our business plan is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods and cost overruns.

 

From inception to May 31, 2013, we raised $2,931,027 in the form of convertible notes payable, related party notes, accounts receivable financing and through the sale of common stock. We will be seeking additional financing in the future in order to obtain the capital required to implement our business plan and purchase and operate staffing companies. We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available to us on satisfactory terms, we will be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing will result in additional dilution to our existing shareholders.

Service revenues

 

We began to generate revenues in October 2012. As of May 31, 2013, the Company had two entities – Staffing Alliance and Cyber 360. Staffing Alliance provides temporary staffing and payroll processing services. Payroll services are performed for which the Company handles basic HR functions, weekly payroll, direct deposit, W-2’s and workers’ compensation insurance. Temp staff services include assistance in sourcing and recruitment strategy. Staffing Alliance revenues are derived from gross billings, which are based on (i) the payroll cost of its worksite employees; and (ii) a markup computed as a percentage of the payroll cost. The gross billings are invoiced concurrently with each periodic payroll of its worksite employees. Revenues, which exclude the payroll cost component of gross billings, and therefore, consist solely of markup, are recognized ratably over the payroll period as worksite employees perform their service at the client worksite. Gross billings for the year ended May 31, 2013 totaled $1,255,827. Staffing Alliance reduced its the gross billings by $1,083,603 for employee payroll costs representing wages and associated payroll expenses (taxes, unemployment, workers compensation) paid to employees and tax authorities on behalf of clients for which the Company provides payroll processing services. For the year ended May 31, 2013, Staffing Alliance had net revenues of $172,225. Cyber 360 primarily provides IT and information security temporary staffing services for an array of large institutions. They also provide permanent placement, consulting to permanent placement and consulting. Contingent staffing and consulting revenues are recognized when the services are rendered by the Company’s contingent employees and consultants. The Company pays all related costs of employment, including workers’ compensation insurance, state and federal unemployment taxes, social security and certain fringe benefits.

 

 

 

13
 

 

Permanent placement staffing revenues are recognized when employment candidates typically start their first day of work. The Company offers a 30/60/90 day guarantee. If the employee is terminated or leaves voluntarily during this period, a pro-rated refund is provided. The Company has a substantial history of estimating the effect of permanent placement candidates who do not remain with its client through the guarantee period. Fees to clients are generally calculated as a percentage of the new employee’s annual compensation.

 

Cyber 360 was acquired on April 26, 2013 and has only generated revenues for approximately five weeks. For the year ended May 31, 2013, Cyber 360 had revenues of $475,506. For the year ended May 31, 2013, we had revenues of $641,731 compared to $0 for the year ended May 31, 2012.

 

Direct cost of services

 

Cost of revenues includes the cost of labor and other overhead costs (payroll wages, taxes and related insurance) as they relate to employees (temporary and permanent) as well as sub-contractors and consultants. For the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012, cost of revenues was $448,507 and $0 respectively.

 

Gross profit and gross margin

 

Our gross profit for the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 was $199,224 and $0, respectively, representing gross margin of 31% and 0% respectively.

 

Operating expenses

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, operating expenses amounted to $2,632,924 as compared to $241,838 for the year ended May 31, 2012, an increase of $2,391,086 or 989%. For the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012, operating expenses consisted of the following:

 

    Years Ended May 31,  
    2013     2012  
General and administrative   $ 319,075     $ 12,960  
Compensation     368,547       37,008  
Consulting fees – related parties     476,129       109,500  
Amortization of intangible     20,828       -  
Depreciation     1,924       -  
Professional fees     1,446,421       82,370  
Total operating expenses   $ 2,632,924     $ 241,838  

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, the increase in our operating expenses as compared to the year ended May 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to:

  

  ¨ An increase of $306,115 in general and administrative expenses for the year ended May 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended May 31, 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to the implementation of the Company’s business plan as well as office expenses related to the Company’s subsidiaries which did not exist in 2012.
     
  ¨ An increase in compensation of $331,539. In February 2012, the Company hired its chief executive officer pursuant to an employment agreement. In 2013, the Company hired the president of the Company as well as the Company’s chief financial officer and two senior vice presidents. In addition the increase in compensation also relates to the compensation of the 11 employees working for the Company’s subsidiaries.

  

 

14
 

 

 

  ¨ An increase in consulting fees to related parties incurred for administrative overhead services and business development services of $366,629. The increase is primarily attributable to the implementation of the Company’s business plan specifically researching and adding potential target acquisitions as well as implementing the Company’s plan relating to its existing subsidiaries.
  ¨ The Company’s intangible asset which has been deemed Contractual and Non Contractual Customer Relationships  is being amortized over the estimated life of the asset of four years. The intangible asset is related to the acquisition of Cyber 360 on April 26, 2013. The amortization of the intangible was calculated for only one month during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013. As of May 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company recognized amortization expense of $20,828 and $0, respectively.
  ¨ An increase of $1,924 in depreciation expense. The increase relates to the fixed assets of the Company’s subsidiary, Cyber 360. The Company acquired Cyber 360 in late April 2013 and the depreciation represents roughly one month of depreciation expense.
  ¨ An increase of $1,364,051 in professional fees in the year ended May 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended May 31, 2012. The increase primarily relates to increases in accounting, consulting and legal fees relating to the implementation of the Company’s business plan specifically due diligence (legal and accounting) of potential acquisition targets. The increase also relates to the professional fees relating to public companies (accounting, auditing, legal, transfer agent, filing fees).

 

Other Expenses

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, we incurred interest expense of $79,363 relating to interest from convertible notes payables. Interest expense related to debt of $931,266 relates to the beneficial conversion relating to $1,125,000 in convertible notes payable converted at a 50% discount on May 31, 2013. The gain on settlement of debt relates to an adjustment to consulting fees of $40,000 agreed by the Company and the consultant.

 

Net Loss

 

As a result of the factors described above, our net losses for the year ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 were $3,405,182 and $244,881, respectively, or a net loss per common share of $0.43 and $0.03 (basic and diluted), respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We have been funding our operations through the sale of our promissory notes, the sale of the Company’s common stock through private offerings and from advances from our majority shareholders/officers/directors.

 

Through August 2012, the Company was presented as a development stage company. Activities during the development stage included organizing the business and raising capital.  In September 2012, Staffing Alliance commenced operations and the Company began to generate revenues. In April 2013, Cyber 360 commenced operations and began generating revenues. Since the Company has incurred losses and currently has negative working capital these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year.  Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  As of May 31, 2013, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $803,936, and has an accumulated deficit of $3,669,742, and for the year ended May 31, 2013 has a net loss and net cash used in operations of $3,405,182 and $1,423,484, respectively.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its major shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and through profitable operations from existing subsidiaries and the acquisition of additional entities.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the outcome of these uncertainties cannot be predicted.

Our primary uses of cash have been for professional fees related to our operations and financial reporting requirement and for the payment of compensation and benefits and consulting fees to related parties. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business and implementing our business plan. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

 

  ¨ An increase in working capital requirements to finance targeted acquisitions,
  ¨ Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows,
  ¨ Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing and new brands as we expand within existing markets or enters new markets,
  ¨ The cost of being a public company, and
  ¨ Capital expenditures to add technologies.

 

In October 2012, we began to generate revenues. At May 31, 2013, we had cash of $262,822. We have funded our operations as follows:

 

  ¨ During the period from March 2012 through November 2012, we entered into Note Purchase Agreements with various investors in the aggregate principal amount of $425,000. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum. On January 17, 2013, the Company closed a financing, by entering into a Note Purchase Agreement with an investor whereby the Company sold to the Holder a certain Promissory Note for the principal amount of $750,000.The Promissory Note accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum.
  ¨ During the year ended May 31, 2013, we entered into note agreements with various shareholders/directors/officers of the Company in the aggregate amount of $56,500. These notes are unsecured, bear interest at 5.0% and are due one year from the respective note date.
  ¨ During the year ended May 31, 2013, we entered into an agreement under which we borrow money against open accounts receivable. Under this accounts receivable financing arrangement, the Company receives an advance of 90% of the face value of an eligible receivable.   Upon collection of the receivable, the advance is repaid and the remaining funds are remitted to the Company. The borrowings carry interest at a rate of .025% per day (9% per annum).  At May 31, 2013, $259,326 was recorded (including interest) to the accounts receivable financing liability.
     
  ¨

During the year ended May 31, 2013, the Company completed a closing of a private offering of Units with certain accredited investors for total gross proceeds of $1,050,000. Pursuant to a subscription agreement with the Purchasers, the Company issued to the Purchasers units consisting of (i) 27,778 shares of common stock and (ii) a three year warrant to purchase 13,889 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per Share, for a purchase price of $25,000 per Unit. In total, the Company sold 42 units totaling 1,166,676 common shares and 583,338 warrants.

In addition, the Company raised $350,000 relating to a second private offering. At May 31, 2013 the second offering was still open. The terms of the second offering mirror the first offering.

 

We must raise approximately $2,500,000 to implement our business plan in order to pursue the acquisition of a broad spectrum of staffing agencies in the IT, financial, accounting, healthcare and banking industries and for working capital. This does not include payments for closing certain acquisitions that we have entered into agreements and/or term sheets with, none of which may ultimately close. Currently, we are unable to generate significant cash flow as a result of our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations, without further financing, for up to 12 months. Currently, we do not have sufficient working capital to fund the expansion of our operations and to provide working capital necessary for our ongoing operations and obligations. We will need to raise significant additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company. Therefore our future operations will be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

 

 

 

16
 

 

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our current state of operations, we will incur additional operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.

 

Operating activities

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, net cash used in operations of $1,423,484 was primarily attributable to the net loss of $3,405,182 offset by adjustments totaling $1,981,698, which primarily relates to increase in accounts receivable of $528,997, decrease in prepaid expenses of $18,452, net increase in accounts payable – related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,119,262, non-cash adjustments of $22,752 of depreciation and amortization, share based compensation totaling $458,963 and discount related to debt of $931,266. Cash used in operations of $267,534 in 2012 was primarily attributable to the net loss of $244,881 offset by adjustments totaling $(27,899), which primarily relates to an increase in accounts payable – related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $24,899, an increase in prepaid expenses of $54,552, and non-cash adjustments of $4,000 relating to donated services and rent expense.

  

Investing activities

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, net cash flows used in investing activities was $907,287 and was attributable to the cash portion relating to the acquisition of Cyber 360 on April 26, 2013. For the year ended May 31, 2012, the Company did not record any investing activities.

 

Financing activities

 

For the year ended May 31, 2013, net cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $2,574,726 and was attributable to proceeds from convertible notes payable of $925,000, cash received from related parties notes of $56,500 offset by the repayment of related parties notes of $66,100, proceeds of $259,326 relating to accounts receivable financing and $1,400,000 relating to proceeds from the sale of common stock. For the year ended May 31, 2012, net cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $286,401 and was attributable to proceeds from convertible notes payable of $250,000, cash received from related parties notes of $13,201 offset by the repayment of related parties notes of $3,800, and $27,000 relating to proceeds from the sale of common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 1 to our financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2013 contained herein. We believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

 

 

17
 

 

 

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on us upon adoption.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc.:

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) as of May 31, 2013 and May 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations , stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 Company's 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Staffing 360° Solutions, Inc. as of May 31, 2013 and May 31, 2012, and the 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 consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has sustained substantial net losses and accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

STAFFING 360 SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MAY 31, 2013

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, GOING CONCERN AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and nature of business

 

Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 22, 2009, as Golden Fork Corporation (“Golden Fork”).

 

On February 17, 2012, Alida Heyer (the “Seller”), the holder of 78.7% of the voting rights, of the Company, entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with TRIG Special Purpose 1, LLC, a Nevada Corporation, (“TRIG”) to sell to TRIG 2,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Shares represented all of the outstanding shares held by the Seller. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, TRIG paid the Seller $240,000 for the Shares in a private transaction. As a result of the transaction, the Company became a 78.7% owned subsidiary of TRIG (the “Change of Control”).

 

On March 16, 2012, Golden Fork filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change its name from Golden Fork to Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (“Staffing 360” or the “Company”). Upon filing of the Amendment, the Company began its operations in the international staffing sector.

 

On April 13, 2012, the Company received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to effect its name change (as contemplated by the Amendment) and to change its trading symbol from “GDNF” to STAF”. Simultaneously therewith, the Company received approval to conduct a forward split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of one for three (the “Forward Split”). Following the Forward Split, the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock increased from 2,540,000 to 7,620,000.

 

On July 31, 2012, the Company formed Staffing 360 Alliance, Inc. (“Staffing Alliance”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, incorporated in the State of Nevada for the purpose of exploring business prospects in the staffing sector. In September 2012, Staffing Alliance began operations and provides trained employees to companies who work in word processing, data entry, administrative support staff and other areas.

 

On April 26, 2013, the Company consummated the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of The Revolution Group, Ltd. (“TRG”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 21, 2013, entered into by and among the Company, TRG and the shareholders of TRG . The aggregate consideration paid by the Company to the TRG Shareholders for the acquisition was $2,509,342 (the “Purchase Price”), payable as follows: (i) at the closing the Company made cash payments to the TRG Shareholders in an aggregate of $907,287; at the Closing, the Company paid $410,055 of the Purchase Price by issuing to the TRG shareholders 512,569 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at a price of $0.80 per share. In addition, the Company will pay to the TRG shareholders performance based compensation in cash equal to the following percentages of TRG’s gross profit from the date of closing through the end of the sixteenth (16th) quarter (the “Earn Out Period”) not to exceed a total of $1,500,000: (i) 20% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit up to and including an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the Earn Out Period; plus (ii) 7% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit, if any, in excess of an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the Earn Out Period. At May 31, 2013, the Company estimates the performance based compensation was $1,192,000. As a result of the Acquisition, TRG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and now operates under the name “Cyber 360 Solutions” (“Cyber Solutions”) (see note 8).

 

Staffing 360 is an emerging company in the international staffing sector that intends to acquire high-growth domestic and international staffing agencies. As part of its targeted consolidation model, Staffing 360 is pursuing broad spectrum staffing companies in the IT, financial, accounting, healthcare and cyber security industries.

Going concern

 

Through August 2012, the Company was presented as a development stage company. Activities during the development stage included organizing the business and raising capital.  In September 2012, Staffing Alliance commenced operations and the Company began to generate revenues. In April 2013, Cyber 360 Solutions commenced operations and began generating revenues. Since the Company has incurred losses and currently has negative working capital, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year.  Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  As of May 31, 2013, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $803,936, and has an accumulated deficit of $3,669,742, and for the year ended May 31, 2013 has a net loss and net cash used in operations of $3,405,182 and $1,423,484, respectively.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its major shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and through profitable operations from existing subsidiaries and the acquisition of additional entities.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the outcome of these uncertainties cannot be predicted.

  

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is May 31.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated.

  

Basis of Accounting

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the basis of accounting generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and with Form 10-K and article 8 of the Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Under this basis of accounting, revenues are recorded as earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate our estimates and assumptions related to stock-based compensation and deferred income tax assets valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe 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 us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates for the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 include the valuation of deferred tax assets.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents.  We had no cash equivalents at May 31, 2013 or 2012.

 

 

F-7
 

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, a customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. At May 31, 2013, the Company did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the United States. The Company utilizes ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The Company applied the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of May 31, 2013 and 2012, management believes the Company had no material uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.

 

Fair Value of financial instruments

 

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

  

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

 

 

The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of May 31, 2013 or 2012, with the exception of its convertible notes payable (see note 3) and its earn out liability (see note 8).

 

Cash is considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of May 31, 2013 and 2012 and therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.

 

F-8
 

   

In addition, FASB ASC 825-10-25 Fair Value Option, or ASC 825-10-25, was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”.

 

Professional standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.  Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of “Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument”.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

 

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Staffing 360, Alliance, Inc – The Company accounts for its revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-45, Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations.  Our revenues are derived from our gross billings, which are based on (i) the payroll cost of its worksite employees; and (ii) a markup computed as a percentage of the payroll cost.  The gross billings are invoiced concurrently with each periodic payroll of its worksite employees.  Revenues, which exclude the payroll cost component of gross billings, and therefore, consist solely of markup, are recognized ratably over the payroll period as worksite employees perform their service at the client worksite.  Revenues that have been recognized but not invoiced are included in unbilled accounts receivable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

  

In determining the pricing of the markup component of the gross billings, we take into consideration our estimates of the costs directly associated with our worksite employees, including payroll taxes, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit margin.  As a result, our operating results are significantly impacted by our ability to accurately estimate, control and manage our direct costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of our gross billings.

 

Consistent with our revenue recognition policy, our direct costs do not include the payroll cost of our worksite employees.  Our direct costs associated with our revenue generating activities are primarily comprised of all other costs related to our worksite employees, such as the employer portion of payroll-related taxes, employee benefit plan premiums and workers’ compensation insurance costs.

Cyber 360 Solutions - The Company derives its revenues from three segments: contingent staffing, permanent placement staffing, and consulting. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition – Principal Agent Considerations.” The Company records revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of revenues and expenses. The Company has concluded that the gross reporting is appropriate because the Company (i) has the duty of identifying and hiring qualified employees, (ii) uses its judgment to select the employees and establish their price, and (iii) bears the risk for services that are not fully paid by the customers. Pursuant to the guidance of ASC 605, the Company recognizes revenue when an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonable assured.

 

Contingent staffing and consulting – Contingent staffing and consulting revenues are recognized when the services are rendered by the Company’s contingent employees and consultants. The Company pays all related costs of employment, including workers’ compensation insurance, state and federal unemployment taxes, social security and certain fringe benefits.

 

Permanent placement staffing revenues – Permanent placement staffing revenues are recognized when employment candidates typically start their first day of work. The Company offers a 30/60/90 day guarantee. If the employee is terminated or leaves voluntarily during this period, a pro-rated refund is provided. The Company has a substantial history of estimating the effect of permanent placement candidates who do not remain with its client through the guarantee period. Fees to clients are generally calculated as a percentage of the new employee’s annual compensation.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50.

 

Earnings (loss) per common share

 

The Company utilizes the guidance per FASB Codification “ASC 260 "Earnings per Share". Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes and the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method). Such securities, shown below, presented on a common share equivalent basis and outstanding as of May 31, 2013 and 2012 have been excluded from the per share computations:

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. The depreciation and amortization methods are designed to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives, in years, of the respective assets as follows:

 

Computers     4 Years  
Office Equipment     7 Years  
Furniture and Fixtures     7 Years  
Leasehold Improvements     7 Years  

 

Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in income.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

 

In accordance with ASC 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, we periodically review our long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset.  The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the estimated fair value and the book value of the underlying asset. An impairment was not necessary as of May 31, 2013.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. ASC 350-30-35-4 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

 

Intangible Asset

 

In connection with the acquisition of TRG (see Note 8), the Company identified and recognized an intangible asset of $999,729 representing contractual and non contractual customer relationships. The asset is being amortized over the estimated life of four years. TRG customer relationships were valued using the replacement cost approach. This method is based on acquisition costs invested to attract each customer and relied on actual selling costs incurred and allocated to new customer generation over the preceding four years. The valuation provided for the Contractual and Non Contractual Customer Relationships is based on management’s calculations. The Intangible Asset balance, net of accumulated amortization, at May 31, 2013 is $978,901.

Interest accrued and was payable on the last day of every fiscal quarter commencing on the first calendar quarter subsequent to the respective Note date and ending on the Maturity Date. The Company did not have the right to prepay these notes. On May 31, 2013, the Company converted a total of $375,000 of principal and $39,054 of accrued interest by delivering to the holders shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to 50% of the securities sold in the private offering (“the PIPE financing”) which closed on April 19, 2013. The unit price of the securities sold in the PIPE totaled $0.90. In total the Company issued 920,120 shares (833,333 relating to principal and 86,787 relating to accrued interest).

 

On January 17, 2013, the Company closed a financing, by entering into a Note Purchase Agreement with an investor whereby the Company sold to the Holder a certain Promissory Note for the principal amount of $750,000.

 

The Promissory Note accrued interest at a rate of 12% per annum on the aggregate principal amount, payable on July 20, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”). If the Payment Date occurred prior to the Maturity Date, the Promissory Note was subject to a mandatory conversion into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share on the later of the date on which the Company: (i) acquired an operating company in the Staffing industry, or (ii) closed the issuance and sale of equity securities in connection with the Target Acquisition. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Promissory Note equaled: (i) the principal amount of the Promissory Note and the accrued interest thereon divided by (ii) 50% of the per share price at which shares were sold in the PIPE Financing. On May 31, 2013, the Company converted a total of $750,000 of principal and $33,288 of accrued interest by delivering to the holders shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to 50% of the securities sold in the private offering (“the PIPE financing”) which closed on April 19, 2013.

Since the convertible notes included an embedded conversion feature, management evaluated this feature to determine whether it met the definition of a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) within the scope of ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The Note holders shall have the option to exchange all or a portion of the face amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into the applicable dollar amount of any other securities issued by the Company in connection with the subsequent financing, at a conversion price equal to 50% of the subsequent financing offering price. In accordance with ASC 470-20, which deals with instruments containing a fixed percentage conversion feature dependent on a future event, the Company recorded interest relating to the debt conversion totaling $931,266, which was fully expensed at May 31, 2013.

In addition to the Purchase Price, the Company will pay to the Shareholders performance based compensation in an amount in cash equal to the following percentages of TRG’s Gross Profit from the date of Closing through the end of the sixteenth (16th) quarter following the Closing Date (the “Earn Out Period”) not to exceed a total of ($1,500,000): (i) 20% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit up to and including an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the Earn Out Period; plus (ii) 7% of the amount of TRG’s gross profit, if any, in excess of an aggregate of $5,000,000 during the Earn Out Period. The Company estimates the performance based compensation to total $1,192,000. The earnout liability is calculated in accordance with the terms of the TRG Purchase Agreement.  The liability was valued by a third party financial advisory firm based on management's best estimates of the projected financial results of TRG over the next four years. The Company adjusts the earnout liability on a quarterly basis based on actual results. Adjustments are recorded on the statement of operations. As a result of the Acquisition, TRG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and now operates under the name “Cyber 360 Solutions”.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

 

We account for income taxes under ASC 740, “Expenses – Income Taxes”. ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Realization is dependent upon future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible or are utilized. The Company has not filed its federal and state corporate tax returns. Upon filing all returns will be open to IRS examination. Due to significant losses incurred the Company does not expect to be subjected to income tax expense and believes that any assessed penalties for late filing will be immaterial.

 

The table below summarizes the reconciliation of our income tax provision (benefit) computed at the statutory Federal rate and the actual tax provision:

 

    Years Ended May 31,  
    2013     2012  
Income tax (benefit) provision at Federal statutory rate   $ (1,158,000 )   $ (83,000 )
State income taxes, net of Federal Benefit     (242,000 )     (17,000 )
Permanent differences     367,000       -  
Benefit of loss not realized     1,033,000       101,000  
Tax provision   $ -     $ -  

 

As of May 31, 2013 the Company has a net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forward for income tax purposes of approximately $2,759,000, expiring through the year 2032. The NOL’s may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income. The utilization of NOL’s may be limited because of a possible change in ownership as defined under Section 382 of Internal Revenue Code.

 

F-21
 

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Included in the deferred tax asset is the aforementioned NOL. The realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income. The Company is not able to predict if such future taxable income will be more likely than not sufficient to utilize the benefit. As such, The Company does not believe the benefit is more likely than not to be realized and they have recognized a full valuation allowance for those deferred tax assets. Management will review this valuation allowance periodically and make adjustments as necessary. Deferred tax asset as of May 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

 

    As of May 31,  
    2013     2012  
Deferred tax assets from NOL carry forwards   $ 1,134,000     $ 101,000  
Valuation allowance     (1,134,000 )     (101,000 )

  ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed and submitted under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision of and with the participation of its executive officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, the sole executive officer of the Company has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this Annual Report, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act (defined below)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

  

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

In addition, our management with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have determined that no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during or subsequent to the year ended May 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the registrant’s financial reporting.

 

In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2013, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below:

 

  ¨ Lack of segregation of duties

 

  ¨ Lack of internal accounting staff

 

Continuing Remediation Efforts to address deficiencies in Company’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Once the Company is engaged in a business of merit and has sufficient personnel available, then our Board of Directors, in particular and in connection with the deficiencies, will establish the following remediation measures:

 

  1. Our Board of Directors intends to nominate an audit committee or a financial expert on our Board of Directors in fiscal 2014; and

  2. We will appoint personnel to assist with the preparation of the Company’s monthly financial reporting including preparation of the monthly bank reconciliations.
