PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Back to Table of Contents
Organizational History and General Background of the Registrant
Zaxis International Inc. was incorporated in Ohio in 1989 and is sometimes referred to herein as "we", "us", "our", "Zaxis", "Company" and the "Registrant". On August 25, 1995, Zaxis merged with a subsidiary of The InFerGene Company ("InFerGene") and InFerGene changed its name to Zaxis International Inc. For accounting and tax purposes, the merger was treated as a reverse acquisition.
The Company was a biotechnology holding company that operated its business through a wholly owned subsidiary. The Company was a manufacturer and distributor of products that were used in a molecular separation process known as electrophoresis, a procedure used in more than 55,000 research, industrial and clinical laboratories worldwide. The more common applications of this procedure include protein-based separations such as the HDL and LDL components and sub-components of cholesterol, the identification of various genes and gene products (e.g. DNA, RNA, etc.) and the separation and identification of proteins in drug discovery applications (Proteomics). A variety of techniques, formats, materials, compounds, equipment and devices are employed in electrophoresis and Zaxis provided products to meet these needs. The primary focus of the Company's former research and development efforts as well as its former sales and marketing efforts were targeted toward the consumables segment of this market. The Company's core products were the pre-cast gels and reagents used in these electrophoresis procedures.
The Company believed that its products were well positioned to take advantage of rapidly growing markets. The Company was not able to generate sufficient revenues to support its operating expenses during fiscal year 2002. In addition, the Company was not able to raise additional capital to fund its negative cash flow from operations through borrowings or equity financing to support and expand its business plan.
On November 6, 2002, the Registrant filed a voluntary petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On October 13, 2004, the Company emerged from bankruptcy free and clear of liens, claims and other obligations. On October 13, 2004, Ivo Heiden was appointed to the board of director of the Registrant. Mr. Heiden was subsequently appointed as sole officer of the Registrant.
On November 21, 2014, the Registrant's Board of Directors appointed Jehuda Maimon, age 56, as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Director of the Registrant. On the same day, Ivo Heiden resigned as an officer and director of the Registrant.
On December 2, 2014, the Registrant entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Artsys 360 Ltd, a private company organized under the laws of the State of Israel ("Artsys"). The MOU contemplated that the Registrant and Artsys would enter into a reverse merger, subject to a definitive agreement. The Registrant had appointed Jehuda Maimon as its chief executive officer, chief financial officer and director, which appointment was in connection with the contemplated execution of the MOU with Artsys. The Registrant determined on December 21, 2014 that it would not proceed with the reverse merger transaction and not proceed with a definitive agreement.
On December 16, 2014, the Registrant was informed by five holders of the Registrant's convertible notes in the principal amount of $125,000 (the "Notes") that they had exercised their right to convert the Notes into an aggregate of 4,125,000 (pre-reverse 16,500,000) restricted shares of the Registrant's Common Stock.
On December 21 2014, the holders of a majority of the Registrant's outstanding shares of voting Common Stock, acting by written consent in lieu of a special meeting of stockholders of the Registrant pursuant the authority granted by Sections 211(d) and 228 of Title 8 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Registrant's By-laws (the "Consenting Stockholders"), voted to: (i) terminate the negotiations with Artsys and not proceed with the reverse merger transaction; and (ii) remove Jehuda Maimon as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and director of the Registrant. The reason for the removal was the result of the determination of the Registrant to not proceed with the contemplated reverse merger transaction with Artsys.
On December 21, 2-14, the Registrant's Consenting Shareholders voted to appoint Mr. Liron Carmel, age 30, as the Registrant's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and sole director.
On December 30, 2014, the Registrant entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Emerald Medical Applications Ltd., a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel ("Emerald"). Emerald develops and owns proprietary technologies and methods relating to detection and diagnosis of early-stage Melanoma.
The MOU provides that the Registrant and Emerald will enter into a reverse merger (the "Reverse Merger"), subject to the execution of a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"). The execution of Definitive Agreement and the closing of the Reverse Merger will be subject to the Registrant's raise of $800,000 from third party investors, including but not limited to the Registrant's existing stockholders (the "Investors"), at terms and conditions to be agreed upon by the Registrant and Emerald.
Upon the closing, the holders of Emerald's capital stock will receive in exchange a number of shares of the Registrant's common stock equal to 45% of the Registrant's issued and outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis as at immediately following the closing of the Reverse Merger, excluding Registrant's securities to be issued to the Investors upon exercise of warrants issued to the Investors within the framework of the Reverse Merger. In addition, Emerald's holders will be issued up to an additional 21% of the Registrant's common stock in three equal tranches of 7% of the Registrant's issued and outstanding common stock as at immediately following the closing of the Reverse Merger, subject to Emerald's achievement of certain milestones to be set forth in the Definitive Agreement.
On February 3, 2015, the board of directors of the Registrant appointed Oded Gilboa, age 41, a licensed CPA in the United States and Israel, as the Registrant's Chief Financial Officer.
On February 2, 2015, the Registrant entered into a Loan Agreement with Emerald Medical Applications Ltd., a private Israeli company ("Emerald"), pursuant to which the Registrant agreed to loan Emerald the principal sum of US$90,000 (the "Loan").
Business Objectives of the Registrant
The Registrant has no present operations. Management determined to direct its efforts and limited resources to pursue and effect a business combination. There can be given no assurance that the currently contemplated transaction with Emerald will be completed. The Registrant may continue to seek an alternative business combination.
Current trends
Management believes that as a result of the relative uncertainty in the United States equity markets over the past few years, many privately-held companies have been closed off from the public market and traditional IPO's. During the past few years, many privately-held or public companies attempted to divest non-core assets and divisions and valuations of these assets and divisions have decreased significantly. Therefore, Management believes that there are substantial business opportunities to effect attractive acquisitions. As a public entity with its shares of common stock registered under the Exchange Act and publicly trading, Management believes to be well positioned to identify target acquisitions and to effect a business combination in order to take advantage of these current trends.
Effecting a business combination
Prospective buyers of the Company's common stock will invest in the Company without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any one or more business combinations. A business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which needs to raise substantial additional capital by means of being a publicly trading company, while avoiding what it may deem to be adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself. These include time delays, significant expense, loss of voting control and compliance with various Federal and state securities laws. A business combination may involve a company which may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth.
Sources of target businesses
The Registrant anticipates that target business candidates will be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources, including securities broker-dealers, investment bankers, venture capitalists, bankers and other members of the financial community, who may present solicited or unsolicited proposals. Our Management may also bring to our attention target business candidates. While we do not presently anticipate engaging the services of professional firms that specialize in business acquisitions on any formal basis, we may engage these firms in the future, in which event we may pay a finder's fee or other compensation. In no event, however, will we pay Management any finder's fee or other compensation for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the consummation of a business combination.
Selection of a target business and structuring of a business combination
Management will have broad flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective target business. In evaluating a prospective target business, our Management will consider, among other factors, the following:
financial condition and results of operation of
the target company;
experience and skill of management and availability of additional personnel;
capital requirements;
competitive position;
stage of development of the products, processes or services;
degree of current or potential market acceptance of the products, processes or services;
proprietary features and degree of intellectual property or other protection of the products, processes or services;
regulatory environment of the industry; and
costs associated with effecting the business combination.
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular business combination will be based, to the extent relevant, on the above factors as well as other considerations deemed relevant by our Management in effecting a business combination consistent with our business objective. In evaluating a prospective target business, we will conduct a due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and inspection of facilities, as well as review of financial and other information which will be made available to us.
We will endeavor to structure a business combination so as to achieve the most favorable tax treatment to us, the target business and both companies' stockholders. We cannot assure you, however, that the Internal Revenue Service or appropriate state tax authority will agree with our tax treatment of the business combination.
The time and costs required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete the business combination cannot presently be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Any costs incurred with respect to the identification and evaluation of a prospective target business with which a business combination is not ultimately completed will result in a loss to us.
Probable lack of business diversification
We may seek to effect business combinations with more than one target business, it is probable that we will have the ability to effect only a single business combination. Accordingly, the prospects for our success may be entirely dependent upon the future performance of a single business. Unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations of entities operating in multiple industries or multiple areas of a single industry, it is probable that we will not have the resources to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses. By consummating a business combination with only a single entity, our lack of diversification may:
subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or
all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which
we may operate subsequent to a business combination, and
result in our
dependency upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of
products, processes or services.
Limited ability to evaluate the target business' management
Although we intend to closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business when evaluating the desirability of effecting a business combination, we cannot assure you that our assessment of the target business' management will prove to be correct. In addition, we cannot assure you that the future management will have the necessary skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company intending to embark on a program of business development. Furthermore, the future role of our director, if any, in the target business cannot presently be stated with any certainty. While it is possible that our director will remain associated in some capacity with us following a business combination, it is unlikely that he will devote his full efforts to our affairs subsequent to a business combination. Moreover, we cannot assure you that our director will have significant experience or knowledge relating to the operations of the particular target business.
Following a business combination, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management of the target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that additional managers will have the requisite skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management.
Competition
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business, we expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources than us and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous potential target businesses, our ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target businesses will be limited by our limited financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business. Further, any of these obligations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination. Our Management believes, however, that our status as a public entity and potential access to the United States public equity markets may give us a competitive advantage over privately-held entities having a similar business objective in acquiring a target business with significant growth potential on favorable terms.
If we succeed in effecting a business combination, there will be, in all likelihood, intense competition from competitors of the target business. In particular, certain industries which experience rapid growth frequently attract an increasingly larger number of competitors, including competitors with increasingly greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than the initial competitors in the industry. The degree of competition characterizing the industry of any prospective target business cannot presently be ascertained. We cannot assure you that, subsequent to a business combination, we will have the resources to compete effectively, especially to the extent that the target business is in a high-growth industry.
Employees
Mr. Liron Carmel, our CEO and sole director, and Mr. Oded Gilboa, our CFO, ("Management") are not obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per week and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to the Company's affairs. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on the availability of suitable target businesses to investigate. We do not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination.
Conflicts of Interest
The Company's Management is not required to commit its full time to the Company's affairs. As a result, pursuing new business opportunities may require a greater period of time than if Management would devote his full time to the Company's affairs. Management is not precluded from serving as officer or director of any other entity that is engaged in business activities similar to those of the Registrant. In the future, Management may become associated or affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct. In such event, Management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. In the event that the Company's Management has multiple business affiliations, it may have legal obligations to present certain business opportunities to multiple entities. In the event that a conflict of interest shall arise, Management will consider factors such as reporting status, availability of audited financial statements, current capitalization and the laws of jurisdictions. If several business opportunities or operating entities approach Management with respect to a business combination, Management will consider the foregoing factors as well as the preferences of the Management of the operating company. However, Management will act in what it believes will be in the best interests of the shareholders of the Registrant. The Registrant shall not enter into a transaction with a target business that is affiliated with Management.
Periodic Reporting and Audited Financial Statements
We have registered our securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and have reporting obligations, including the requirement that we file annual and quarterly reports with the SEC. In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our annual reports will contain financial statements audited and reported on by our independent public accountants.
We intends to not acquire a target business if audited financial statements cannot be obtained for the target business. Our Management believes that the requirement of having available audited financial statements for the target business will limit the pool of potential target businesses available for acquisition.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS Back to Table of Contents
Any investment in our shares of common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this annual report before you decide to invest in our common stock. Each of the following risks may materially and adversely affect our business objective, plan of operation and financial condition. These risks may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, which may cause you to lose all or a part of the money you invested in our common stock. We provide the following cautionary discussion of risks, uncertainties and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business plan. In addition to other information included in this annual report, the following factors should be considered in evaluating the Company's business and future prospects.
The Company has a limited operating history and very limited resources.
Since emerging from bankruptcy, the Company's operations have been limited to seeking a potential business combination and has had no revenues from operations. Investors will have no basis upon which to evaluate the Company's ability to achieve the Company's business objective, which is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, acquire an operating business. The Company will not generate any revenues until, at the earliest, after the consummation of a business combination or seeking new business opportunities.
Unspecified and unascertainable risks
There is no basis for shareholders to evaluate the possible merits or risks of potential business combination or the particular industry in which the Company may ultimately operate. To the extent that the Company effects a business combination with a financially unstable operating company or an entity that is in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of revenues or income, the Company will become subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of that financially unstable company. In addition, to the extent that the Company effects a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high degree of risk, the Company will become subject to the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. An extremely high level of risk frequently characterizes certain industries that experience rapid growth. Although Management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular business or industry, there can be no assurance that Management will properly ascertain or assess all such risks or that subsequent events may not alter the risks that the Company perceived at the time of the consummation of a business combination.
It is likely that the Company's current officers and director will resign upon consummation of a business combination and the Company will have only limited ability to evaluate the management of the target business.
The Company's ability to successfully effect a business combination will be dependent upon the efforts of the Company's Management. The future role of the Company's key personnel in the target business, however, cannot presently be ascertained. Although it is possible that Management will remain associated in various capacities with the target business following a business combination, it is likely that the management of the target business at the time of the business combination will remain in place. Although the Company intends to closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business in connection with evaluating the desirability of effecting a business combination, the Company cannot assure you that the Company's assessment of management will prove to be correct.
Dependence on key personnel
The Company is dependent upon the continued services of its officers and director. To the extent that their services become unavailable, the Company will be required to obtain other qualified personnel and there can be no assurance that it will be able to recruit and hire qualified persons upon acceptable terms.
The Company's officers and director may allocate his time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in his determination as to how much time to devote to the Company's affairs. This could have a negative impact on the Company's ability to consummate a business combination.
The Company's officers and director are not required to commit his full time to the Company's affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating his time between the Company's business and other businesses. The Company does not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination. Management of the Company is engaged in several other business endeavors and is not obligated to contribute any specific number of his hours per week to the Company's affairs. If Management's other business affairs require him to devote more substantial amounts of time to such affairs, it could limit his ability to devote time to the Company's affairs and could have a negative impact on the Company's ability to consummate a business combination.
The Company's officers and director may in the future become, affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by this Company and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in determining which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented to.
The Company's officers and director may in the future become, affiliated with entities, including other companies, engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by this Company. Additionally, the Company's offices and director may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to this Company as well as the other entities with which they are or may be affiliated. Additionally, due to the Company's officers and director existing affiliations with other entities, they may have a fiduciary obligation to present potential business opportunities to those entities in addition to presenting them to us which could cause additional conflicts of interest. Accordingly, Management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
It is probable that the Company will only be able to enter into one business combination, which will cause us to be solely dependent on such single business and a limited number of products or services.
It is probable that the Company will enter into a business combination with a single operating business. Accordingly, the prospects for the Company's success may be:
solely
dependent upon the performance of a single operating business, or
dependent upon the
development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products or services.
In this case, the Company will not be able to diversify the Company's operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses, unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different areas of a single industry.
The Company has limited resources and there is significant competition for business combination opportunities. Therefore, the Company may not be able to enter into or consummate an attractive business combination.
The Company expects to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to the Company's, including venture capital funds, leveraged buyout funds and operating businesses competing for acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources than the Company does and the Company's financial resources are limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While the Company believes that there are numerous potential target businesses that it could acquire, the Company's ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target businesses will be limited by the Company's limited financial resources and the fact that the Company will use its common stock to acquire an operating business. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses.
The Company may be unable to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete a business combination or to fund the operations and growth of the target business, which could compel the Company to restructure a potential business transaction or abandon a particular business combination.
If we require funds, because of the size of the business combination, we will be required to seek additional financing. We cannot assure you that such financing would be available on acceptable terms, if at all. To the extent that additional financing proves to be unavailable when needed to consummate a particular business combination, we would be compelled to restructure the transaction or abandon that particular business combination and seek an alternative target business candidate. In addition, if we consummate a business combination, we may require additional financing to fund the operations or growth of the target business. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of the target business. The Company's officers, director or stockholders are not required to provide any financing to us in connection with or after a business combination.
Additional financing requirements associated with reporting obligations under the Exchange Act
The Company has no revenues and is dependent upon the willingness of the Company's Management and/or affiliated parties to fund the costs associated with the reporting obligations under the Exchange Act, other administrative costs associated with the Company's corporate existence and expenses related to the Company's business objective. The Company is not likely to generate any revenues until the consummation of a business combination. The Company anticipates that it will have available sufficient financial resources to continue to pay accounting and other professional fees and other miscellaneous expenses that may be required until the Company commences business operations in connection with a business combination. In the event that the Company's available financial resources from its Management and/or affiliated parties prove to be insufficient for the purpose of achieving its business objective through a business combination, the Company will be required to seek additional financing. The Company's failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse affect on the Company's ability to pursue a business combination. The Company does not have any arrangements with any bank or financial institution to secure additional financing and there can be no assurance that any such arrangement would be available on terms acceptable and in the Company's best interests. The Company does not have any written agreement with Management and/or affiliated parties to provide funds for the Company's operating expenses.
Broad discretion of Management
Any person who invests in the Company's common stock will do so without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any prospective business combination. As a result, investors will be entirely dependent on the broad discretion and judgment of Management in connection with the selection of a prospective business combination. There can be no assurance that determinations made by the Company's Management will permit us to achieve the Company's business objectives.
Reporting requirements may delay or preclude a business combination
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 of the Exchange Act, the Company is required to provide certain information about significant acquisitions and other material events. The Company will continue to be required to file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K. As a reporting company under the Exchange Act, following any business combination, we will be required to file a report on Form 8-K, which contains audited financial statements of the acquired entity. These audited financial statements must be filed with the SEC within 5 days following the closing of a business combination. While obtaining audited financial statements is typically the responsibility of the acquired company, it is possible that a potential target company may be a non-reporting company with unaudited financial statements. The time and costs that may be incurred by some potential target companies to prepare such audited financial statements may significantly delay or may even preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable business combination. Acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may not be appropriate for acquisition because we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
The Company may be deemed to have no "Independent Director", actions taken and expenses incurred by our officer and director on behalf of the Company will generally not be subject to "Independent Review".
Our director may receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him in connection with activities on the Company's behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of director, which consist of one director who may seek reimbursement. If our director will not be deemed "independent," he will generally not have the benefit of independent director examining the propriety of expenses incurred on our behalf and subject to reimbursement. Although the Company believes that all actions taken by our director on the Company's behalf will be in the Company's best interests, the Company cannot assure the investor that this will actually be the case. If actions are taken, or expenses are incurred that are actually not in the Company's best interests, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and plan of operation and the price of our stock held by the public stockholders.
General Economic Risks.
The Company's current and future business objectives and plan of operation are likely dependent, in large part, on the state of the general economy. Adverse changes in economic conditions may adversely affect the Company's business objective and plan of operation. These conditions and other factors beyond the Company's control include also, but are not limited to regulatory changes.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Our historic stock price has been volatile and the future market price for our common stock is likely to continue to be volatile. Further, the limited market for our shares will make our price more volatile. This may make it difficult for you to sell our common stock.
The public market for our common stock has been very volatile. Over the past three fiscal years and subsequent quarterly periods, the market price for our common stock has ranged from $0.06 to $0.70 (See "Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters in this annual report). Any future market price for our shares is likely to continue to be very volatile. This price volatility may make it more difficult for you to sell shares when you want at a price you find attractive. Further, the market for our common stock is limited and we cannot assure you that a larger market will ever be developed or maintained. The last reported sales price for our common stock on January 26, 2015 was $0.06 per share. Market fluctuations and volatility, as well as general economic, market and political conditions, could reduce our market price. As a result, this may make it difficult or impossible for you to sell our common stock.
The Company's shares of common stock are quoted on the OTCQB market, which limits the liquidity and price of the Company's common stock.
The Company's shares of common stock are traded on the OTCQB market. Quotation of the Company's securities on the OTCQB market limits the liquidity and price of the Company's common stock more than if the Company's shares of common stock were listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a national exchange. There is currently no active trading market in the Company's common stock. There can be no assurance that there will be an active trading market for the Company's common stock following a business combination. In the event that an active trading market commences, there can be no assurance as to the market price of the Company's shares of common stock, whether any trading market will provide liquidity to investors, or whether any trading market will be sustained.
Our common stock is subject to the Penny Stock Rules of the SEC and the trading market in our common stock is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our common stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 require:
that a broker or
dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
the broker or
dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the
identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
In order to approve a persons account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
obtain financial
information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
make a reasonable
determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the
person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of
evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
sets forth the
basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
that the broker or
dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
State blue sky registration; potential limitations on resale of the Company's common stock
The holders of the Company's shares of common stock registered under the Exchange Act and those persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware that there may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell the Company's securities. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for the Registrant's securities to be a limited one.
It is the intention of the Registrant's Management following the consummation of a business combination to seek coverage and publication of information regarding the Registrant in an accepted publication manual which permits a manual exemption. The manual exemption permits a security to be distributed in a particular state without being registered if the Registrant issuing the security has a listing for that security in a securities manual recognized by the state. However, it is not enough for the security to be listed in a recognized manual. The listing entry must contain (1) the names of issuers, officers, and directors, (2) an issuer's balance sheet, and (3) a profit and loss statement for either the fiscal year preceding the balance sheet or for the most recent fiscal year of operations. Furthermore, the manual exemption is a nonissuer exemption restricted to secondary trading transactions, making it unavailable for issuers selling newly issued securities.
Most of the accepted manuals are those published by Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Service, Fitch's Investment Service, and Best's Insurance Reports, and many states expressly recognize these manuals. A smaller number of states declare that they "recognize securities manuals" but do not specify the recognized manuals. The following states do not have any provisions and therefore do not expressly recognize the manual exemption: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont and Wisconsin.
Dividends unlikely
The Company does not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future because it has no revenues or cash resources. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon the Company's future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of the Company's board of directors as then constituted. It is the Company's expectation that future management, following a business combination, will determine to retain any earnings for use in its business operations and accordingly, the Company does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND PLAN OF OPERATION Back to Table of Contents
Overview
The Company's current business objective is to seek a business combination with an operating company. We intend to use the Company's limited personnel and financial resources in connection with such activities. The Company will utilize its capital stock, debt or a combination of capital stock and debt, in effecting a business combination. It may be expected that entering into a business combination will involve the issuance of restricted shares of capital stock. The issuance of additional shares of our capital stock:
may significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
will likely cause a
change in control if a substantial number of our shares of capital stock are issued, and
most likely will also result in the resignation or removal of our present officer and
director; and
may adversely affect
the prevailing market price for our common stock.
Similarly, if we issued debt securities, it
could result in:
default and
foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a business combination were
insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
acceleration of our
obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest
payments when due if the debt security contained covenants that required the maintenance
of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenants were breached without a
waiver or renegotiations of such covenants;
our immediate payment
of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security was payable on demand;
and
our inability to
obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contained covenants
restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security was
outstanding.
On December 30, 2014, the Registrant entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Emerald Medical Applications Ltd., a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel ("Emerald"). Emerald develops and owns proprietary technologies and methods relating to detection and diagnosis of early-stage Melanoma.
The MOU provides that the Registrant and Emerald will enter into a reverse merger (the "Reverse Merger"), subject to the execution of a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"). The execution of Definitive Agreement and the closing of the Reverse Merger will be subject to the Registrant's raise of $800,000 from third party investors, including but not limited to the Registrant's existing stockholders (the "Investors"), at terms and conditions to be agreed upon by the Registrant and Emerald.
Upon the closing, the holders of Emerald's capital stock will receive in exchange a number of shares of the Registrant's common stock equal to 45% of the Registrant's issued and outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis as at immediately following the closing of the Reverse Merger, excluding Registrant's securities to be issued to the Investors upon exercise of warrants issued to the Investors within the framework of the Reverse Merger. In addition, Emerald's holders will be issued up to an additional 21% of the Registrant's common stock in three equal tranches of 7% of the Registrant's issued and outstanding common stock immediately following the closing of the Reverse Merger, subject to Emerald's achievement of certain milestones to be set forth in the Definitive Agreement.
The Company expects the Definitive Agreement with Emerald to be signed in the first quarter of 2015.
Results of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013
We have not generated any revenues during the years 2014 and 2013. We had operating expenses related to general and administrative expenses, being a public company and interest expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred $173,870 in net loss due to general and administrative expenses of $28,125, interest expense of $20,745 and expense related to the amortization of debt discount of $125,000 as compared to a net loss in 2013 of $51,400 due to general and administrative expenses of $41,200 and interest expense of $10,200.
Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $13,075 or 32% during the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year mainly due to a decrease in compensation expense. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, our interest expense was $20,745 as compared to $10,200 in the same period in the prior year, which increase by $10,545 or 103% was mainly due to increased interest expense related to the conversion of advances into convertible notes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At present, the Company has no business operations and no material cash resources. We are dependent upon interim funding provided by Management and/or affiliated parties to pay professional fees and expenses. Our Management and affiliated parties have agreed to provide funding as may be required to pay for accounting fees and other administrative expenses of the Company. If we require additional financing, we cannot predict whether equity or debt financing will become available at terms acceptable to us, if at all. The Company depends upon services provided by Management and affiliated consultants to fulfill its filing obligations under the Exchange Act. At present, the Company has limited financial resources to pay for such services and may be required to issue restricted shares in lieu of cash.
On
December 31, 2014, we have had current cash assets of $1,000 and had $163,784 in current liabilities consisting of $7,500 in accounts payable, $35,305 in accrued interest expenses and $120,979 in advances payable to unrelated parties. We had long-term liabilities of $22,375 in notes payable compared to no long-term liabilities at December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2014, we had $186,159 in total liabilities.On December 31, 2013, we have had no current assets and had $278,779 in current liabilities consisting of $32,050 in accrued interest, convertible notes of $85,000 and accruals due to related party of $161,729. We had no long-term liabilities at December 31, 2013.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we had positive cash flow from operations of $1,000, which was the result of a net loss of $173,870 offset by expenses paid by related parties of $21,625, imputed interest of $17,490, non-cash expenses related to amortization of debt discount of $125,000, an increase in accounts payable of $7,500 and an increase in accrued liabilities of $3,255.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, we offset our negative cash flow from operations of $5,950 through loans made by former Management.
There are no limitations in the Company's certificate of incorporation on the Company's ability to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted common stock to effect a business combination. The Company's limited resources and lack of having cash-generating business operations may make it difficult to borrow funds or raise capital. The Company's limitations to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted capital stock required to effect or facilitate a business combination may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and future prospects, including the ability to complete a business combination. To the extent that debt financing ultimately proves to be available, any borrowing will subject us to various risks traditionally associated with indebtedness, including the risks of interest rate fluctuations and insufficiency of cash flow to pay principal and interest, including debt of an acquired business.
The Company has only limited capital. Additional financing is necessary for the Company to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors have unqualified audit opinion for the year ended December 31, 2014 with an explanatory paragraph on going concern.In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company. Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional equity financing will provide the opportunity to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not have any contractual obligations.

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014and 2013, and are included elsewhere in this annual report.

Back to Table of Contents To the Board of Directors
Zaxis International, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Zaxis International, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of Zaxis International, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 21, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
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 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 financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Zaxis International Incorporated as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations, changes in shareholders' deficit and cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ZAXIS INTERNATIONAL INC.
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2014 and 2013
Back to Table of Contents
Note 1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies.
Organizational Background: Zaxis International Inc. (the "the Company") was incorporated in Ohio in 1989. On August 25, 1995, Zaxis merged with a subsidiary of The InFerGene Company ("InFerGene") and InFerGene changed its name to Zaxis International Inc. InFerGene was incorporated in California in 1984 and subsequently changed its domicile in connection with the merger into Zaxis to Delaware in 1985. Operations ceased operations in 2002. In November 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries filed a petition for bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Northern District of Ohio. On October 13, 2004, the Company emerged from bankruptcy. At present, the Company has no business operations and is deemed to be a shell company.
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs, and as such, has incurred an operating loss since inception. Further, as of December 31, 2014, the cash resources of the Company were insufficient to meet its current business plan, and the Company had negative working capital. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
Property and Equipment: New property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5 years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for minor items, repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the period the event takes place.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets: We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets including equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.
Stock Based Compensation: Stock-based awards are accounted for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments. Our primary type of share-based compensation consists of stock options. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing options. The inputs for the valuation analysis of the options include the market value of the Company's common stock, the estimated volatility of the Company's common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and the risk free interest rate.
Accounting For Obligations And Instruments Potentially To Be Settled In The Company's Own Stock: We account for obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company's stock in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments. This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company's own stock.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: FASB ASC 825, "Financial Instruments," requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. FASB ASC 825 defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the carrying value of certain financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses.) approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments or interest rates, which are comparable with current rates.
Fair Value Measurements: The Company measures fair value under a framework that utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of inputs which prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value are:
Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
- Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
-
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive
markets;
- Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the
asset or liability;
- Inputs that are derived principally from or
corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
If
the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input
must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or
liability.
Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The assets or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The following table presents assets that were measured and recognized at fair value on December 31, 2014 and the year then ended on a recurring basis:

When the Company changes its valuation inputs for measuring financial assets and liabilities at fair value, either due to changes in current market conditions or other factors, it may need to transfer those assets or liabilities to another level in the hierarchy based on the new inputs used. The Company recognizes these transfers at the end of the reporting period that the transfers occur. For the fiscal periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no significant transfers of financial assets or financial liabilities between the hierarchy levels.
Earnings per Common Share: We compute net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. All per share disclosures retroactively reflect shares outstanding or issuable as though the reverse split had occurred January 1, 2012.
Income Taxes: We have adopted FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Pursuant to ASC 740, we are required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not to occur. Realization of our net deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generating sufficient taxable income in future years in appropriate tax jurisdictions to realize benefit from the reversal of temporary differences and from net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all of our net deferred tax asset. Management will continue to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset and its related valuation allowance. If our assessment of the deferred tax assets or the corresponding valuation allowance were to change, we would record the related adjustment to income during the period in which we make the determination. Our tax rate may also vary based on our results and the mix of income or loss in domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions in which we operate.
In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and to the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we will reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We will record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than expected ultimate assessment. ASC 740 requires recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current year and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. Measurement of deferred income tax is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized.
Uncertain Tax Positions: When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
Our federal and state income tax returns are open for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2011. We are not under examination by any jurisdiction for any tax year. At December 31, 2014 we had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required under FIN 48.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On June 10, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-10 , which eliminates development stage reporting requirements under FASB ASC 915, as well as amends provisions of existing variable interest entity guidance under ASC 810. Additionally, the ASU indicates that the lack of commencement of principal operations represents a risk and uncertainty and, accordingly, is subject to the disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 275. As a result of the changes, existing development stage entity presentation and disclosure requirements are eliminated. The presentation and disclosure changes to FASB ASC 915 are effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and the revisions to the consolidation standards are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has adopted these provisions and enhanced disclosure of risks and uncertainties as required.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization's operations and financial results and include disposals of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment. The new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. Additionally, the new guidance requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in the ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern . The new standard requires management of public and private companies to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, disclose that fact. Management will also be required to evaluate and disclose whether its plans alleviate that doubt. The standard requires management to evaluate, for each reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The new standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Management does not anticipate that the adoption of these standards will have a material impact on the financial statements.
Note 2. Going Concern.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs, and as such, has incurred an operating loss since inception. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Note 3. Stockholders' Equity.
On January 8, 2015 the shareholders approved a resolution to increase the authorized common shares from 100,000,000 to 490,000,000 shares. All other provisions of the common shares remain unchanged. Also on that date The Company declared a reverse split of common stock at the ration of 1:4. The stock split was effective January 8, 2015 for holders of record as of that date. Except as otherwise noted, all share, option and warrant numbers have been restated to give retroactive effect to this split. All per share disclosures retroactively reflect shares outstanding or issuable as though the reverse split had occurred at January 1, 2012.
Recent Issuances of Common Stock
During the year ended December 31, 2014 we issued 4,125,000 shares of our common stock (16,500,000 pre-reverse stock split) in exchange for converting $125,000 of promissory notes.
Note 4. Related Party transactions not disclosed elsewhere.
On March 25, 2014, our President and principal shareholder assigned accumulated advances and accruals totaling $124,229, to an unaffiliated third party. The advances carry no specific terms of repayment. On December 15, 2015, $22,375 of the then outstanding balance was converted to a promissory note (see Note 4 below). A summary of transactions is as follows:
2014 | 2013 | |||
Beginning balance | $ | 161,729 | $ | 119,779 |
Increase due to payments made on behalf of the company | $ | 21,625 | $ | 41,950 |
Less March 24, 2014 conversion to convertible note | $ | (40,000) | $ | - |
Less December 15, 2014 conversion to promissory note | $ | (22,375) | $ | - |

Total | - | 161,729 | ||
Less current portion | - | (161,729) | ||
Due after one year | $ | - | $ | - |
There was no stated term of interest associated with this obligation. Accordingly, the company imputed interest at an appropriate rate estimated at 8% as prescribed under FASB ASC 835. The resultant charge of $11,210 to interest expense was considered a contribution of capital.
Note 5. Notes Payable.
Convertible Notes Payable
On October 2, 2009, we issued to our former President and principal shareholder a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $35,000 bearing interest of 12% per annum (the "2009 Note") in consideration of cash advances made to the Company. The 2009 Note provided for an initial conversion price of $0.10 per share. On March 24, 2014, the board authorized a reduction of the interest rate from 12% per annum to 1% per annum and an adjustment of the conversion rate from $0.10 per share to $0.01 per share. The maturity date was extended from December 31, 2014 to July 1, 2016. On March 24, 2014, our former President and principal shareholder transferred and assigned the 2009 Note and its related accrued interest to five unaffiliated parties each of which have the same interest rate and conversion price.
On August 1, 2011, we issued to our former President and principal shareholder a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $50,000 bearing interest of 12% per annum (the "2011 Note") in consideration of cash advances made to the Company. The 2011 Note provided for an initial conversion price of $0.03 per share. On March 24, 2014, the board authorized a reduction of the interest rate from 12% per annum to 1% per annum and an adjustment of the conversion price from $0.03 per share to $0.01 per share. The maturity date was extended from December 31, 2014 to July 1, 2016. On March 24, 2014, our former President and principal shareholder transferred and assigned the 2011 Note and its related accrued interest to five unaffiliated parties, each of which have the same interest rate and conversion price.
On March 24, 2014, we issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $40,000 to an unaffiliated party in consideration for past services provided to the Company. The Note bears interest at the rate of 1% per annum, is due and payable on March 24, 2015 and is convertible at a price of $0.005 per share. On March 24, 2014, the holder of the 2014 Note transferred and assigned the 2014 Note to five unaffiliated parties bearing the same interest rate and conversion price. In connection with the transfer and assignment of the 2014 Note, the Company agreed to extend the maturity date from March 24, 2015 to July 1, 2016.
In accordance to FASB ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, we evaluated the holder's non-detachable conversion right provision and liquidated damages clause, contained in the terms governing the Note to determine whether the features qualify as an embedded derivative instruments at issuance. Such non-detachable conversion right provision and liquidated damages clause did not need to be accounted for as derivative financial instruments.
In accordance with FASB ASC 470, the Company has analyzed the beneficial nature of the conversion terms and determined that a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) exists because the effective conversion price was less than the quoted market price at the time of the issuance. The Company calculated the value of the BCF using the intrinsic method as stipulated in ASC 470. The BCF of $125,000 has been recorded as a discount to the 2014 notes payable and a corresponding entry to Additional Paid-in Capital. We generally amortize this discount to expense over the stated term of the each note.
On December 10, 2014, all fifteen convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $125,000 converted to 4,125,000 shares (16,500,000 pre-reverse stock split) consistent with the provisions of the notes. Upon the conversion all remaining unamortized debt discount arising from the BCF was immediately accelerated. This resulted in $125,000 of amortization expense in 2014. Related accrued interest of $35,295 was not included in the conversion and remains unpaid at December 31, 2014.
Note Payable - Not Convertible
On December 15, 2014, we issued a promissory note in the amount of $22,375 to an unaffiliated party in consideration for payments made to outside service providers of the Company. The Note bears interest at the rate of 1% per annum, is due and payable on January 15, 2016 and is not convertible to common stock.
We concluded that these notes have a stated rate of interest that is different from the rate of interest that is appropriate for this type of debt at the date of the transaction. ay Accordingly, the company imputed interest at an appropriate rate estimated at 8% as prescribed under FASB ASC 835. The resultant charge of $6,280 to interest expense was considered a contribution of capital.
For the period ended December 31, 2014 the Company has recognized $3,255 in accrued interest expense related to the stated interest rate on the notes and has recognized $17,490 in imputed interest expense. Interest expense in 2013 consisted of $10,200 in accrued interest at the stated rate.
Note 6. Income Taxes.
We have adopted ASC 740 which provides for the recognition of a deferred tax asset based upon the value the loss carry-forwards will have to reduce future income taxes and management's estimate of the probability of the realization of these tax benefits. Our net operating loss carryovers incurred prior to 2014 considered available to reduce future income taxes were reduced or eliminated through our recent change of control (I.R.C. Section 382(a)) and the continuity of business limitation of I.R.C. Section 382(c).
We have a current operating loss carry-forward of $449,064 resulting in deferred tax assets of $0. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all our net deferred tax asset.
Future utilization of currently generated federal and state NOL and tax credit carry forwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit carry forwards before full utilization.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Back to Table of Contents
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of December 31, 2014, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer conducted an evaluation regarding the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our chief executive officer/chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the fiscal year 2013 due to lack of segregation of duties under the COSO framework.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of those internal controls. As defined by the SEC, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, who is also the sole member of our Board of Directors, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment and those criteria, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2014 due to lack of segregation of duties under the COSO framework.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only Managements report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
