BASIS
OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
|
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by
the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with
such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim
consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and
reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for
a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management
believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the
information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim consolidated
financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in its Form 10KSB filed on March 31,
2008. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2008.
NOTE

GOING
CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
|
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern
which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in
the normal course of business. As reported in its Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company has incurred
operating losses of approximately $239,000 from inception of the Company through
December 31, 2007. The Company’s stockholders’ deficit at September
30, 2008 was $273,333 and had a working capital deficit, continued losses, and
negative cash flows from operations. These factors combined, raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. Management’s plans to address and alleviate these concerns
are as follows:
The
Company’s management continues to develop a strategy of exploring all options
available to it so that it can develop successful operations and have sufficient
funds, therefore, as to be able to operate over the next twelve
months. The Company is attempting to improve these conditions by way
of financial assistance through issuances of additional equity and by generating
revenues through sales of products and services. No assurance can be
given that funds will be available, or, if available, that it will be on terms
deemed satisfactory to management. The ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully
accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain
profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and
classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.

2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
You should read the following
discussion of the company's financial condition and results of operations in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in
the filing of the company’s latest annual 10-KSB. This discussion may
contain forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements
regarding our expectations, beliefs, intentions, or future strategies that are
signified by the words "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "believes," or
similar language. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward looking statements. You should carefully
consider the information under the caption "Risk Factors" in this filing, in
addition to the other information set forth in this report. We
caution you that Secure Netwerks’ business and financial performance is subject
to substantial risks and uncertainties.
Overview
Secure
Netwerks is a computer and technology hardware reseller to businesses and other
organizations. Most of our clients are small and medium sized
organizations, although we do attempt to market our products and services to
larger organizations. We also outsource technology-related services
to provide a full solution basket of technology products and services including
hardware, software, network development and services. Our clients
consist of some retail purchasers and small to medium-
sized
organizations, operating mostly in North America, but do have occasional clients
in Europe. Our website is located at www.securenetwerks
.com.
Every
company is different, and we treat every company differently depending on their
needs assessment. Our assessment of client technology needs does not
just involve building technology systems. We focus on the business
strategies of our clients. The highlights of Secure Netwerks's approach include
a phase, often around eight weeks, entitled Technology Discovery Session (TDS),
which identifies the data, technical, business and functional requirements,
creates a conceptual design of the overall solution, develops a visual prototype
of the application, and delivers a solution roadmap for
implementation.
We first
focus on collecting current hardware, software and procedures, business
processes, personnel requirements and any other additional information that is
deemed necessary. We then document the collected information to the extent
required to adequately define the desired result. Subsequently, we focus on
developing the future hardware, software and procedures to support the
technology drivers for the organization. As part of this approach, we identify
gaps between the client’s technology and their desired technology. We
identify improvement / effectiveness measures that will assist the organization
in achieving its current and future vision.
Results
of Operations
Following
is our discussion of the relevant items affecting results of operations for the
periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
Revenues. Our
products and services are broken down into two categories for revenue
recognition purposes – (i) off-the-shelf hardware/software product sales, and
(ii) outsourced information technology services. Our revenue
recognition policy for these categories is as follows:
Revenue
is recognized upon completion of services or delivery of goods where the sales
price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably
assured. Advance customer payments are recorded as
deferred revenue until such time as they are recognized.
Product
sales are derived from the resale of off-the-shelf hardware and software
packages.
8
Product
sales are not warranted by Secure Netwerks and may be subject only to warranties
that may be provided by the product manufacturer. Therefore, product
warranties have no effect on the financial statements. We have no
sales arrangements encompassing multiple deliverables.
Secure
Netwerks generated net revenues of $30,460 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2008 compared to $95,425 in net revenues for the third quarter of
2007. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, net
revenues were $147,663, a 45% decrease compared to $269,658 in net revenues
during the first nine months of 2007. During the first nine months of
2008 and 2007, we received $99,026 and $208,058, respectively, in gross revenues
from software and hardware product resales and equipment leasing, and $48,637
and $61,600, respectively, in gross revenues from information technology and
other miscellaneous services. The decrease in revenues for the
nine month period ended September
30, 2008 is mainly the result of monthly service contracts which expired and
were not renewed by several customers. During the first nine months
of 2007, these transactions contributed approximately $39,600 compared to
$12,200 during the same time period in 2008. Although Secure Netwerks
continues to pursue equipment leases, these transactions are sporadic and
nothing has materialized during 2008. We do not anticipate that gross
revenues from our base product and services will continue to
decrease. Our business model and objective is to receive
recurring revenue from established clients. In addition, we procure
and resell hardware and software packages to our clients as well as single
transaction customers.
Cost of
Sales. Expenses which comprise cost of sales are the wholesale
cost of hardware, software, any accompanying licenses, product sales
commissions, and commissions paid in connection with information technology
consulting contracts. Also included in cost of sales are personnel
and materials costs to administer these information technology
services. As more organizations utilize our technology services,
future expenses included in cost of goods sold will increase as well as
potential fee sharing expenses to organizations that assist us in providing
these services.
Cost of
sales for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 was $23,831, compared
to $72,371 during the third quarter of 2007. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2008, cost of sales were $108,310, a 49% decrease compared
to $213,587 during the first nine months of 2007. The decrease is
mainly the result of declining sales and the related need to purchase
products. The cost of sales will fluctuate depending on the sales
mix. Furthermore, we have continued good relationships with vendors
which have allowed us to take advantage of certain price
discounts. As discussed above, during the nine month period ended
September 30, 2008, the Company sold less in services as compared to the first
six months of 2007. Although the margins on services are much better
than hardware sales, the cost of providing those services has
increased.
Salaries and Consulting
Expenses. Salaries and consulting expenses consist of salaries
and benefits, company paid payroll taxes and outside consulting
expenses. Salaries and consulting expenses for the three month period
ended September 30, 2008 were $2,657 compared to $5,816 during the third quarter
of 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, salaries and
consulting expenses were $16,021, a 27% decrease compared to $21,830 during the
first nine months of 2007. As the Company continues to push sales
commission incentives rather than base salaries, we anticipate salaries expenses
to remain at these levels in the future.
Professional
Fees. Professional fees for the three month period ended
September 30, 2008 were $3,825 compared to $5,061 during the third quarter of
2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, professional fees
were $16,232, a 34% decrease compared to $24,422 during the first nine months of
2007. The decrease was the result of legal and accounting fees
associated with the spin-off from the parent company, SportsNuts, Inc. during
2007.
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
9
have been
comprised of advertising; bad debts; occupancy and office expenses; equipment
leases; travel and other miscellaneous administrative
expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
month period ended September 30, 2008 were $5,249 compared to $9,610 during the
third quarter of 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008,
selling, general and administrative expenses were $20,576, a 28% decrease
compared to $28,742 during the first nine months of 2007. We anticipated a
decrease in these expenses as we endeavor to decrease certain costs associated
with rent and occupancy-related expense.
Gain on Settlement of
Debt. The Company had a gain on the settlement of debt in the
amount of $-0- for the six months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $8,108
during the first nine months of 2007. This was the result of the
write off of certain old accounts payable by creditors of the
Company.
Other Income
(Expense). We incurred net other expense of $7,607 for the
three month period ended September 30, 2008 compared to $8,560 during the third
quarter of 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 1008, we
incurred net other expense of $21,133 compared to $21,274 during the first nine
months of 2007. Other expenses incurred were comprised primarily of
interest expenses related to the promissory notes issued by the
Company. Other income in this category is comprised of finance charge
income billed to late paying customers. We do not anticipate any
major changes in other income and expenses.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet
arrangements.
Personnel
Secure Netwerks has two full-time
employees, two part-time employees, and other project-based contract personnel
that we utilize to carry out our business. We utilize contract
personnel on a continuous basis, primarily in connection with service contracts
which require a high level of specialization for one or more of the service
components offered. We expect to hire more full-time employees in the
future. Although competition for technology sales personnel in the
metropolitan Salt Lake City area is intense, because we offer competitive
compensation and maintain a productive and collegial work environmental, we
don’t believe we will have significant difficulty retaining additional employees
or contract personnel in the future.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Since inception, the Company has
financed its operations through a series of loans, credit accounts with hardware
vendors, and the use of Company credit to procure goods and
services. As of September 30, 2008, Secure Netwerks’ primary source
of liquidity consisted of $15,693 in cash and cash equivalents. We
may seek to secure additional debt or equity capital to finance substantial
business development initiatives or acquire another hardware
reseller. At present, however, we have no plans to seek any such
additional capital or to engage in any business development or acquisition
activity.
FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
Forward
Looking Statements
When used in this report, the words,
“believes,” “plans,” “expects,” and similar expressions are intended by us to
identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are
subject to certain risks and
10
uncertainties,
including those discussed below, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those we have projected. These forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date hereof. All of these
forward-looking statements are based on our estimates and assumptions, which
although we believe them to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain and
difficult to predict. We cannot assure you that the benefits
anticipated in these forward-looking statements will be achieved.
We undertake no obligation to update
any forward-looking statements, but you are advised to consult any further
disclosures by Secure Netwerks on this subject in its subsequent filings
pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Furthermore, we are
providing these cautionary statements identifying risk factors, listed below,
that could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and
historical results. It is not possible for our management to foresee
or identify all such factors. Consequently, this list should not be
considered an exhaustive statement of all potential risks, uncertainties and
inaccurate assumptions.
RISK
FACTORS
Operating Risks
Our Independent Auditors Have
Expressed Uncertainty About Our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, Which
May Dissuade Others From Doing Business With Us. Our
independent auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern. Because other organizations that seek to do
business with Secure Netwerks often request a copy of our audit report, their
perception of our company may be negatively influenced. For example,
we may not be able to obtain invoice payment terms and price discounts from
equipment manufacturers because we may be viewed as a credit risk, which could
lead to a loss of sales opportunities if we do not have sufficient cash flow to
pay for our inventory upon receipt or cannot make a profit on the sale of such
equipment without such discounts. To date, no manufacturers have
discontinued their discount programs with us, but we cannot assure you that such
manufacturers will continue to provide us discounts in the future.
We Risk Losing Some of Our Key
Personnel Because of Our Fluctuating Revenues and Cash Flows. Secure Netwerks’
success depends, in large part, upon the talents and skills of its management
and key personnel, principally Chene Gardner, our Chief Executive Officer, and
Ryan Gloshen and Jonathon Bish, our principal salespersons. Our sales
force is paid variable amounts based largely upon sales receipts, and therefore
their incomes can fluctuate substantially from month to month.. To
the extent that any of our key personnel are unable or refuse to continue their
association with Secure Netwerks, a suitable replacement would have to be
found. We do not have employment agreements with any of our personnel
and therefore we do not have restrictions on the ability of former employees to
compete with us. Further, we do not have key man life insurance on
any person in our company and could not therefore be compensated for the loss of
any individual due to death or disability. We cannot assure you that
we would be able to find suitable replacements for our existing management
personnel or technical personnel or that we could retain such replacements for
an affordable amount.
Our Chief Executive Does Not Work
Exclusively for Secure Netwerks and May Face Time Conflicts Which Could
Compromise His Availability to Manage Our Company. Chene Gardner,
our Chief Executive Officer, is also the controller for SportsNuts, Inc. the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for Cancer Therapeutics,
Inc., and the Chief Executive Officer for Global Network, Inc. His
role in these organizations puts substantial constraints on his time which may
detract from his ability to manage the business of Secure Netwerks
effectively. Mr. Gardner spends approximately one third of his time
working for Secure Netwerks. We cannot assure you that Mr. Gardner
will be able to avoid scheduling and time conflicts in the future, which may
impair his performance as our Chief Executive Officer.
11
Our Business is Inherently Risky Because
of Fluctuations in Cash Receipts From Our Customers. The
information technology hardware business is inherently risky. Gross
profit margins for basic computer hardware are generally small and therefore we
seek to sell more sophisticated and customized equipment which generally
requires deep relationships with larger organizations. These larger
organizations are themselves customarily subject to budget constraints regarding
capital equipment purchases which can cause our cash receipts to fluctuate
depending on the budget cycle for a particular institutional
customer. If our sales and outsourced services do not generate enough
cash flow to meet our operating expenses (such as debt service, capital
expenditures, and legal and accounting fees), our ability to develop and expand
our business and become profitable will be adversely affected. We
have periodically experienced cash flow difficulties which have resulted in an
accumulated deficit of $273,333 as of September 30, 2008.
We Risk Losing Business Due to
In-House Technology Personnel. We have found an increasing
tendency of medium sized businesses to rely on internal personnel to service and
maintain computer networks, even if such personnel are not properly trained to
perform the tasks required. Because these persons may not be
adequately trained, they may not be aware of the needs of their businesses to
acquire updated equipment. In addition, even though these persons
remain the point of contact for our sales personnel, they are typically unable
to make purchasing decisions regarding computer equipment without securing
permission from management or another department who may be resistant to such
purchases without having interface with a trained sales
representative. Finally, internal technology personnel can also
themselves be resistant to bids for service projects because they may feel
threatened by specialized outside service technicians who are generally more
skilled and may detect errors in the manner in which systems and networks have
been managed by in-house personnel in the past. If the trend of
relying on internal technology personnel continues, we may not be able to secure
agreements with medium-sized organizations or may be forced to dramatically
change our sales techniques which have no guarantee of success.
Our Business Could be Adversely
Affected From Cheaper Outsourced Services Provided
Overseas. We are facing increasing competition from outsourced
lower overhead firms in India, Russia, and other rapidly developing technology
sectors around the world. These firms also have access to low-cost
personnel who are fluent in English and are proficient in software languages,
which enable them to bid for service projects at a substantially reduced rate
from what we are able to provide. Although there are certain
configuration, testing and setup services which are difficult to provide
remotely, we cannot assure you that such firms will not be able to provide such
services in the future and that our revenues will not be adversely
affected.
We will Require Additional Financing
for Expansion and other Functions Which Might Only be Procured on
Disadvantageous Terms. We will likely require substantial
additional capital in the future for expansion, business development, marketing,
computer software and systems, overhead, administrative, and other expenses such
as additional payroll and employee training. We cannot assure you
that we will be able to raise additional funds or that financing will be
available to Secure Netwerks on acceptable terms. Lack of additional
funds could negatively affect our business, particularly if we do not possess
sufficient cash or are not provided credit facilities to purchase equipment in
connection with a large customer order.
You Could be Adversely Impacted from
Any Additional Financing We Receive Due to Dilution or Restrictive
Covenants. Your investment in Secure Netwerks could be
negatively affected because of certain factors which may accompany any
financing. For example, we may issue our equity securities or
securities convertible into our equity at an effective price which causes
substantial dilution to your ownership in Secure Netwerks. Any such
financing may also contain provisions which may restrict
12
our
ability to consummate certain transactions such as a pledge or sale of our
assets, an extension of credit, or borrowings, all of which may impair the
operation of our business.
We Compete With Substantially Larger
Companies That May be Better Positioned to Win Larger and More Profitable
Contracts. In attempting to market our services to medium and
larger organizations, we compete with substantially larger companies which have
greater name recognition and financial resources to price their services and, in
particular, computer products which are purchased through
them. Accordingly, we may not be able to effectively compete for
larger outsourcing and purchasing contracts unless and until we possess
additional financial, marketing, and technical resources.
We May Lose Our Status as an
Authorized Reseller Which Could Prevent Us From Selling Certain Computer
Equipment. Secure Netwerks success and its outsourced service
contracts are substantially dependent upon our ability to deliver our clients
high quality products which requires that we continue as an authorized reseller
for manufacturers. These manufacturers typically have various
conditions which must be met in order to retain such reseller authorization,
such as product proficiency certifications, licenses, and volume
purchases. Because computer equipment and related software is
constantly being modified and upgraded, we may lose our status as an authorized
reseller because we have not provided sufficient ongoing training to our
employees. Furthermore, we could also lose such status because we
lack the financial capacity to secure large volume orders. Where we
purchase equipment from a wholesale reseller instead of the manufacturer, we do
not control whether or not our suppliers continue to sell us such wholesale
products. Any substantial interruption in our ability to supply
discounted products to our clients would have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results, and financial condition.
Investment Risks
A Purchase of Secure Netwerks Shares
is a Speculative Investment Because We Have a Limited Operating History and a
History of Losses. Secure Netwerks’ shares are a speculative
investment. To date, Secure Netwerks has generated net losses and we cannot
guarantee that we will ever generate a profit in the future. As of
September 30, 2008, Secure Netwerks has an accumulated deficit of
$273,333. Secure Netwerks is not guaranteed to continue to make sales
of computer products or related outsourced services. If Secure
Netwerks continues to generate losses and we are unsuccessful at decreasing
Secure Netwerks’ operating costs or raising investment capital, it is unlikely
that Secure Netwerks would be able to meet its financial obligations and you
could lose your entire investment.
You May Lack Liquidity in Your
Shares. Our stock is traded on the over-the-counter bulletin
board, and our stockholders may have greater difficulty in selling their shares
when they want and for the price they want. The over-the-counter
bulletin board is separate and distinct from the Nasdaq stock
market. The bulletin board does not operate under the same rules and
standards as the Nasdaq stock market, including, for example, order handling
rules. The absence of these rules and standards may make it more
difficult for a stockholder to obtain execution of an order to trade and to
obtain the price they wanted for a trade. This means our shareholders
may not be able to sell their shares when they want for a price they
want. In addition, because stocks traded on the bulletin board are
usually thinly traded, highly volatile, have fewer market makers and are not
followed by analysts, our stockholders may have greater difficulty in selling
their shares when they want and for the price they want. Investors
may have greater difficulty in getting orders filled because it is anticipated
that if our stock trades on a public market, it initially will trade on the
over-the-counter bulletin board rather than on Nasdaq. Investors’
orders may be filled at a price much different than expected when an order is
placed. Trading activity in general is not conducted as efficiently
and effectively as with Nasdaq-listed securities. Bulletin board
transactions are conducted almost entirely manually. Because there
are no automated systems for negotiating trades on the bulletin board, they are
conducted via telephone. In times of heavy market volume, the
limitations of
13
this
process may result in a significant increase in the time it takes to execute
investor orders. Therefore, when investors place market orders – an
order to buy or sell a specific number of shares at the current market price –
it is possible for the price of a stock to go up or down significantly during
the lapse of time between placing a market order and getting
execution. Because bulletin board stocks are usually not followed by
analysts, there may be lower trading volume than for Nasdaq-listed
securities. Further, a registered broker-dealer must submit an
application to the National Association of Securities Dealers to enable our
stock to be listed on the bulletin board. Because the National
Association of Securities Dealers will
conduct their own review of Secure Netwerks and its business, we cannot assure
you that we will be successful in getting Secure Netwerks listed on the bulletin
board or any other quotation medium.
We Have Never Issued a Dividend and
You May Never Receive a Dividend in the Future and Must Rely Solely on a
Possible Increase in the Value of Your Shares to Achieve any Return on Your
Investment in Lieu of Dividend Income. Secure Netwerks has
never issued a dividend and we do not anticipate paying dividends on our common
stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, you should not rely on
an investment in Secure Netwerks if you require dividend income. Any
return on your investment in Secure Netwerks will come from the potential
appreciation in the value of your shares, which is inherently uncertain and
unpredictable. Furthermore, we may also be restricted from paying
dividends in the future pursuant to subsequent financing arrangements or
pursuant to Delaware law.
Because Our Liability is Limited,
Neither You nor Secure Netwerks May be Able to Hold Management Liable for
Certain Breaches of Duty. Secure Netwerks has adopted
provisions in its Certificate of Incorporation which limit the liability of our
officers and directors and provisions in our bylaws which provide for
indemnification by Secure Netwerks of our officers and directors to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware corporate law. Secure Netwerks’
Certificate of Incorporation generally provide that its directors shall have no
personal liability to Secure Netwerks or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breaches of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for breaches of
their duties of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, acts involving unlawful
payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, or any
transaction from which a director derives an improper personal
benefit. Such provisions substantially limit your ability to hold
directors liable for breaches of fiduciary duty.
You Could be Diluted from the
Issuance of Additional Common and Preferred Stock. Presently,
Secure Netwerks has 500,000 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of
preferred stock outstanding. Secure Netwerks is authorized to issue
up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred
stock. To the extent of such authorization, the Secure Netwerks board
of directors will have the ability, without seeking shareholder approval, to
issue additional shares of common stock in the future for such consideration as
the board may consider sufficient. The issuance of additional common
stock in the future may reduce your proportionate ownership and voting
power.

4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s
Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, to allow for timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
14
As of
September 30, 2008, the end of our third quarter covered by this report, we
carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the
period covered by this quarterly report. Our board of directors has
only one member. We do not have a formal audit
committee.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the
Securities Exchange Act, as amended). In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected
benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal
control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute,
assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s
authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2008. In making this
assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2008,
our internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US
generally accepted accounting principles.
This
quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities
and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s
report in this quarterly report.
Inherent
limitations on effectiveness of controls
Internal
control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is
not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance,
interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of
management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal
control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and
compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from
human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be
circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its
inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent
or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations
are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to
design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only
reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and
presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods
are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 that have
materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls
over financial reporting.

SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF
PROCEEDS
|
Upon the
formation of Secure Netwerks in March 2004, SportsNuts paid $0 for 500,000
shares of
Secure
Netwerks common stock and up until March 1, 2007, Secure Netwerks’ sole
shareholder. The consideration paid by SportsNuts in receiving the
shares of Secure Netwerks was in exchange for the assumption of $25,196 in
liabilities resulting in an accumulated deficit of $25,196 upon
issuance.
Secure
Netwerks is subject to a month-to-month sublease with Acadia Properties, LLC,
for the use of office and hardware facilities. We pay Acadia
Properties, LLC a rental fee of $1,200 per month, which may increase as our
business grows. Secure Netwerks’ rental fee is based on exclusive
usage of approximately one-eighth of the office space of Acadia Properties, LLC,
which pays an aggregate rental rate of $10,500 per month and is comparable to
rents charged to other subtenants of Acadia Properties, LLC. We
utilize these facilities for the operation of our day-to-day
business. As Secure Netwerks grows and expands, we may seek
alternative arrangements for our executive offices and operations elsewhere in
the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. Secure Netwerks’ sublease with
Acadia Properties, LLC is attached as an exhibit to this registration
statement. Kenneth Denos is a principal of Acadia Properties, LLC and
is a director of Secure Netwerks.
As of September 10, 2004, $80,000 was
loaned to Secure Netwerks in the form of the payment of outstanding liabilities
on behalf of the Company, and on January 1, 2005, Secure Netwerks issued 4
promissory notes to the following individuals to formalize these non-cash
payments in the prior year:
