Financial Instruments |
|
|
|
Credit Risk |
|
|
|
The Company is exposed to credit risk on the accounts receivable from its customers. In order to reduce its credit risk, the Company has adopted credit policies which include the analysis of the financial position of its customers and the regular review of their credit balances. The Company incurred bad debt expense of $Nil during the period ended March 31, 2015 (2014 - $Nil). |
|
|
|
Currency Risk |
|
|
|
The Company is exposed to currency risk on its sales and purchases denominated in Canadian Dollars. The Company actively manages these risks by adjusting its pricing to reflect currency fluctuations and purchasing foreign currency at advantageous rates. |
|
|
|
As at March 31, 2015, cash includes 25,074 Canadian Dollars (2014 - 4,379 Canadian Dollars), accounts receivable includes 14,371 Canadian Dollars (2014 - 14,613 Canadian Dollars), accounts payable and accrued expenses include 107,943 Canadian Dollars (2014 - 40,171 Canadian Dollars) and income taxes payable includes 6,439 Canadian Dollars (2014 - Nil Canadian Dollars). |
|
|
|
Liquidity Risk |
|
|
|
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company relies on cash flows generated from operations, as well as injections of capital through the issuance of the Company's capital stock to settle its liabilities when they become due. |
|
|
|
Interest Rate Risk |
|
|
|
The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its monetary current assets and current liabilities. |
|
|
|
Concentration of Supplier Risk |
|
|
|
The Company purchases all of its inventory from one supplier source in Asia. The Company carries significant strategic inventories of these materials to reduce the risk associated with this concentration of suppliers. Strategic inventories are managed based on demand. To date, the Company has been able to obtain adequate supplies of the materials used in the production of its products in a timely manner from existing sources. The loss of this key supplier or a delay in shipments could have an adverse effect on its business. |

The License Agreement allows the Company to manufacture or sub-license the patented latching system and provide services utilizing the patented latching system within the United States and its territories and possessions and any foreign countries where Patent Rights exist. The License Agreement does not require the payment of license issue fees or royalties, however, the Company will be required to maintain any fees or costs associated to keep the patent active. The License Agreement will be in effect for the life of the last-to-expire patent or last-to-be-abandoned patent application licensed under this Agreement, whichever is later. The Company will have the right to terminate the Agreement in whole or as to any portion of Patent Rights at any time by giving such notice to the Licensor. Should the Company violate or fail to perform any term of this Agreement, the Licensor may give written notice of such default ("Notice of Default") to the Company.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report.
Results of Operations
Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, revenue generated from the entire line of TruXmart products was $78,176, as compared to $165,256 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The year over year decrease of approximately 53% was mainly attributable to the preparation of releasing new product lines and limited stock in the warehouse.
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, revenue generated in Canada was $28,665 compared to $43,845 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of 35%. The relative weakening of the Canadian Dollar compared to the United States Dollar during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 had a negative effect on reported revenues as a result of translating the sales denominated in Canadian Dollars to United States Dollars for financial statement reporting purposes. Canadian Dollar Sales decreased to CDN$35,577 from CDN$48,339, a decrease of 26% during the three months ended March 31, 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 revenue generated in the United States was $49,511 compared to $121,411 for the same period in 2014. This represents a decrease in US- source revenue of approximately 59% year over year. This decrease in the US is limited inventory in stock
Sales from online retailers of the TruXmart products decreased from $113,927 in 2014 to $42,108 in 2015, a decrease of 63%. The online retailers accounted for over 53% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to 68% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Distributor sales decreased from $12,541 in 2014, to $8,413 in 2015.
Currently, TruXmart has two major distributors in Canada, one in the United States, along with its own contracted distribution and inventory facility in Depew, NY. This does not include multiple independent online retailers.
Although TruXmart currently supports a total of 10 dealers and distributors, TruXmart believes the trend of increasing sales through online retailers will continue to outpace the traditional distribution business model. Moreover, reputable online retailer’s customers tend to provide larger sales volumes, greater margin of profit as well as greater protection against price erosion.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales decreased by 42% from $107,868 to $62,286, representing 80% of revenue. This decrease was primarily due to a corresponding decrease in sales for the period as well as the addition of shipping and freight costs to cost of sales which were expensed in prior periods. Our cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 65% and 80% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively.
TruXmart provides its distributors and online retailers an “all-in” wholesale price. This includes any import duty charges, taxes and shipping charges. Discounts are applied if the distributor or retailer chooses to use their own shipping process. Certain exceptions apply on rare occasions where product is shipped outside the contiguous United Sates or from the United States to Canada. Volume discounts are also offered to certain higher volume customers.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $41,576 compared to $41,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Our office and general expense decreased by $1,122, from $11,874 to $10,752. The decrease is a result of the fact that, as the majority of TruXmart’s office and general expenses are dominated in Canadian Dollars, fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate between the Canadian and United States Dollars had an advantageous result when translating these amounts into United States Dollars for financial reporting purposes. Shipping and freight decreased by $17,442 from $18,684 to $1,242. The decrease is a result of a change in how shipping expenses have been recorded - during fiscal 2015, the majority of the Company’s shipping and freight costs have been included in cost of sales. Sales and marketing increased $3,200 from $5,165 to $8,365. This increase due to increased personnel costs paid for sales services. Professional fees which include accounting, legal and consulting fees increased from $Nil for the three months ended March 31, 2014 to $13,984 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as a result of a consulting contract entered into by the Company during May 2014. The Company also incurred repairs and maintenance expenses of $3,706 on its previous premises during the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The Company did not incur any such expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $25,686 compared to net income of $15,520 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in the net income was due to reduced sales as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow Activities
Cash increased from $155,735 at December 31, 2014 to $349,809 at March 31, 2015. This increase was primarily the result of proceeds from share subscriptions received during the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $279,800. Accounts receivable decreased by $1,938 from $19,002 at December 31, 2014 to $17,064 at March 31, 2015. Inventory increased by $83,777 from $88,766 at December 31, 2014 to $172,543 at March 31, 2015 largely as a result of the timing of the receipt of inventory shipments. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $30,534 from $287,353 at December 31, 2014 to $317,887 at March 31, 2015. The increase in payables is related to transaction costs incurred during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.
Financing Activities
During the first three months of 2014, TruXmart funded working capital requirements principally through cash flows from operations and stockholder loans when required. The Company has been able to raise capital through private placements of shares of the Company’s common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company has received subscriptions for 2,027,537 shares of its common stock for proceeds of $279,800.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements with any party.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 3 to our financial statements as included in this annual report. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information in this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
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. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
16
|
The framework our management uses to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is based on the guidance provided by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in its 1992 report: INTERNAL CONTROL - INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK. Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2014 due to the same material weaknesses that rendered our disclosure controls and procedures ineffective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to a lack of sufficient resources to hire a support staff in order to separate duties between different individuals. The Company lacks the appropriate personnel to handle all the varying recording and reporting tasks on a timely basis. The Company plans to address these material weaknesses as resources become available by hiring additional professional staff, such as a Chief Financial Officer, as funding becomes available, outsourcing certain aspects of the recording and reporting functions, and separating responsibilities. We have identified the following material weak-nesses.
1. As of March 31, 2015, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, we have not developed and effectively communicated to our employees the accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.
2. As of March 31, 2015, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015, based on the criteria established in "INTERNAL CONTROL-INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK" issued by the COSO.
Change In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls
FNHI’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within FNHI have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of that our reports will be accurate. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer concludes that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Our future reports shall also indicate that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed for this reason and shall indicate the related conclusion by the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer as to their effectiveness.
