NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2017

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Znergy, Inc., (formerly Mazzal Holding Corp., formerly Boston Investment and Development Corp.) is a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), incorporated on January 23, 2013. The original business plan of the Company was the construction and management of multi-family home developments and the subsequent sale thereof.

On October 26, 2015 the Company acquired Global ITS, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Znergy, Inc. in order to expand into the Energy Efficiency (EE) marketplace, focusing on commercial lighting and green project financing. On February 9, 2016, the Company agreed to sell to the Mazzal Trust the real property which the Trust had previously sold to the Company and the Trust returned to the Company 149,950,000 of the 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the Trust.  The Company is now focused solely on the EE marketplace with an emphasis on LED retrofitting and relamping.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed or omitted in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K.

The results of operations presented in this quarterly report are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein.

Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company accounts for revenue using the “completed contract method” in accordance with ASC 605-35. Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets and billings and/or cash receipts are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account during the contract period but no revenues, costs or profits are recognized in operations until the completion of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and allocable indirect costs. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined. A contract is considered complete when accepted by the customer. The Company quotes its customers the total costs of product installation and materials minus the expected rebates, if any, from a given utility. For projects larger than $10,000, rebates must be pre-approved by the utility.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. Reclassifications have also been made to the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows for the for the nine months ending September 30, 2016, for consistency with the current period presentation. This change in classification does not materially affect previously reported cash flows from operations, investing or financing activities in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows, and had no effect on the previously reported Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations for any period.

NOTE 7 – LITIGATION

 

On September 26, 2016, Registrant filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida a Complaint against defendants The Mazzal Trust, Nissim S. Trabelsi and Shawn Telsi (collectively the “Defendants”), seeking the disgorgement of profits obtained by Defendants and certain of their shareholder affiliates defined under Rule 16a-1(a)(1) under the Exchange Act defined below (collectively, the “Group”) through “short swing profits” in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Specifically, Registrant alleged that the Group acted under the guidance and control of the Defendants, whose individual defendants had filed forms 3 and 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), declaring themselves to be “insiders” for the purpose of Section 16(b). The Group owned 100% of the shares of Registrant at the time that members of the group were engaged in the sale and purchase of such shares. The sales and purchases referenced all occurred within six months of other sales and purchases, subjecting Defendants to disgorge to Registrant all profits made by the Group in such sales and purchases. As detailed in paragraphs 16-22 of the Complaint, the total profits received by the Group is $1,695,689. Accordingly, Registrant has demanded the return of all such profits to Registrant plus the statutory payment of attorneys’ fees.  On August 24, 2017, the court granted the Company a default judgment against Defendants. The Company intends to vigorously pursue satisfaction of this judgment although there can be no assurance of the recovery of any funds from Defendants.

 

On January 26, 2017, the Company received an email from its transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, (“VStock”) informing the Company that it had been served with a Summons and Complaint (B2 Opportunity Fund (“B2”) v. Trabelsi et al. - Index No.:17-CV-10043, the “Claim”) and further stating that the Company was obligated to indemnify VStock for fees and expenses incurred in defending the Claim. The Company responded on February 24, 2017 stating that (1) we reviewed the Transfer Agent and Registrar Agreement between Mazzal and VStock dated May 20, 2014 and that in Article VI(c) of that agreement it states that indemnification will not be offered if the acts of VStock constitute bad faith or gross negligence, (2) we reviewed the lawsuit filed by B2 against VStock and others and find that VStock’s actions constitute gross negligence and perhaps bad faith, and we therefore deny indemnification of VStock relating to the Claim, and (3) should VStock take any action to seek indemnification by Znergy in any manner, Znergy will either join B2 in its lawsuit or will file an action on its own. The Company terminated its agreement with VStock. Management cannot at this time estimate what, if any, financial impact this matter will have on the Company.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

The Company was formed in January 2013 as a Nevada corporation.  The original business plan of the Company was to build and sell multi-family housing projects. The Company acquired a parcel of land in Taunton, Massachusetts, from The Mazzal Trust, a trust of which the founder of the Company, Nissim Trabelsi, was the Trustee, in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock, and began development of the project and construction of multi-family units.

Subsequently, on October 26, 2015, the Company acquired Global ITS, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Global”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Znergy, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Znergy”), in order to expand into the Energy Efficiency (EE) marketplace, focusing on commercial lighting and green project financing.

On February 9, 2016, the Company agreed to sell to The Mazzal Trust the real property which the Trust had previously sold to the Company, and the Trust returned to the Company 149,950,000 of the 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the Trust, which shares were cancelled. The Company is now focused solely on the EE marketplace. Both of these transactions are discussed in more detail below.

Recent Developments

Global ITS Transaction

Share Exchange Agreement

On October 26, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Global ITS, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Global”), and the shareholders of Global, pursuant to which we exchanged 120,000,000 of our common shares (the “Company Shares”) for 24,000,000 Global common shares held by Global’s shareholders representing 100% of Global’s outstanding shares (the “Share Exchange”). The transaction was reported in, and the Agreement was filed as an exhibit to, a Current Report filed with the SEC on October 27, 2015.

Change in Control Transaction

On February 9, 2016, the Company, Nissim Trabelsi, Shawn Telsi, the Mazzal Living Trust, the majority shareholder of the Company (the “Trust”), and B2 Opportunity Fund, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“B2”), entered into an Amended Master Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Master Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Master Agreement, Mr. Trabelsi and Mr. Telsi agreed to sell all of the shares of the Company’s common stock owned by them, 45,800,000 shares and 9,500,000 shares, respectively, to B2 or B2’s designees. In connection with the Master Agreement, B2 paid $315,000 to Mr. Trabelsi for his and Mr. Telsi’s shares.

 

Also in connection with the Master Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Trust all of its real property with a carrying value of $1,897,000, and the Trust assumed the related party loan with a carrying value of $853,521 and accounts payable and accrued expenses with a carrying value of $24,500. In exchange, the Trust returned to the Company 149,950,000 of the 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the Trust. In connection with the execution of the Master Agreement, the Company canceled the 149,950,000 shares of common stock conveyed by the Trust.

 

In connection with his sale of his and Mr. Telsi’s shares, Mr. Trabelsi appointed Christopher J. Floyd to the Board of Directors of the Company and to the Board of Directors of Command Control Center Corp. (“Command Control”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Mr. Trabelsi also appointed Mr. Floyd as the CEO, CFO, and Secretary of both the Company and of Command Control. Following Mr. Trabelsi’s appointment of Mr. Floyd to the boards of directors and as an officer of the Company and Command Control, Mr. Trabelsi resigned from all positions with the Company and with Command Control, effective immediately.

Results of Operations

The Company had revenues of $1,302,217 and $14,701 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, and September 30, 2016, respectively. The Company had revenues of $873,976 and $2,461 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2017, and September 30, 2016, respectively. Revenues in 2017 comprise LED installation projects and associated rebates from utilities while revenues in 2016 consist of consulting services.  The increase in revenues is due to the increase in personnel, implementing formalized training programs, resulting in increased sales and marketing efforts.  The Company expects to continue to see increased revenue in future periods but can make no assumptions as to size of any increases or certainty thereof.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had a working capital surplus of $568,067 with total current assets of $1,295,061 comprising $131,444 in cash, $697,389 in accounts receivable, $76,460 in prepaid expenses, and $389,768 in inventory, and total current liabilities of $726,994 comprising $251,131 in accounts payable, $185,588 in accrued expenses, $64,383 in customer deposits, and $225,000 in a note due February 28, 2018 for the purchase of a building. Use of cash for operating activities totaled $743,730 primarily for funding an increase in accounts receivable of $617,777 and inventory of $197,663. The primary source of funds was loans from related parties in the amount of $226,750 and proceeds from the offering of our common stock in the amount of $795,000.

Going Concern Discussion

 

For the year ending December 31, 2016, our auditors issued an explanatory note regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next 12 months. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by third parties and loans from others in our company.

As of September 30, 2017, management believes that generating revenues in the next six to twelve months is important to support our planned ongoing operations. However, we cannot guarantee that we will generate such growth. If we do not generate sufficient cash flow to support our operations over the next six to twelve months, we will need to raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash or obtain loans in order to continue as a going concern. There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. We cannot assure you that any financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for us to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the financial statements to reflect our doubt to continue as a going concern.

At the time of this filing we have three officers: David Baker, our CEO; Christopher Floyd, our CFO and Secretary; and Ryan Smith, our Senior Vice President. Mr. Baker and Mr. Floyd are responsible for our managerial and organizational structure which will include preparation and implementation of disclosure and accounting controls under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. When these controls are implemented, Mr. Baker and Mr. Floyd, together with any other executive officers in place at that time, will be responsible for the administration of these controls.

Our management does not expect to incur significant research and development costs in 2017.

On July 22, 2017, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for a property located at 808 A South Huntington Street, Syracuse, Indiana. The agreement stipulates a purchase price of $255,000 of which $30,000 was paid on July 22, 2017 with the balance of $225,000 due 180 days after closing.  There is no interest payable on the balance due. The square footage of the building itself is approximately 2,348.  The property also includes 27 storage units generating approximately $19,000 per year rental income. The Company closed on the property on September 1, 2017.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s most critical accounting policies include (a) use of estimates, (b) revenue recognition, (c) going concern, and (d) share based payments. The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results the Company reports in its financial statements.

(a) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts or revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates, judgments and assumptions used in these consolidated financial statements include those related to revenues, accounts receivable and related allowances, contingencies, and the fair values of stock-based compensation. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in the financial statements prospectively from the date of any change in estimate. 

 

(b) Revenue Recognition

The Company accounts for revenue using the “completed contract method” in accordance with ASC 605-35. Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets and billings and/or cash receipts are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account during the contract period but no revenues, costs or profits are recognized in operations until the completion of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and allocable indirect costs. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined. A contract is considered complete when accepted by the customer. The Company quotes its customers the total costs of product installation and materials minus the expected rebates, if any, from a given utility. For projects larger than $10,000, rebates must be pre-approved by the utility.

(c) Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2017, while the Company has a working capital surplus of $568,067, the accumulated losses from operations aggregated $11,064,096 and it continues to experience operating losses. The Company intends to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements through September 2018.

The Company is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue operations and to execute its business plan. In response to these problems, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings. No assurances can be made that management will be successful in pursuing any of these strategies.

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(d) Share-Based Payments

Certain employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company participate in incentive plans that provide for granting stock options and performance-based awards. Time based stock options generally vest in equal increments over a two -year period and expire on the third anniversary following the date of grant. Performance-based stock options vest once the applicable performance conditions are satisfied.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation for equity awards granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants as compensation and benefits expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation is recognized over the requisite service period of the individual awards, which generally equals the vesting period. For performance-based stock options, compensation is recognized once the applicable performance condition is satisfied.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation for equity awards granted as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares awarded. Stock-based compensation is recognized over the requisite service period of the individual awards, which generally equals the vesting period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers, or ASU 2014-09. Pursuant to this update, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this update are currently effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and are to be applied retrospectively, or on a modified retrospective basis. Early application is not permitted. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 explicitly requires a company’s management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The new standard became effective in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Management has evaluated the potential impact of the adoption of this standard and believes its adoption has no material impact on our consolidated statements of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, (“ASU 2015-11”), Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendment does not apply to inventory that is measured using the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method. For public entities, ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be applied prospectively. Management has evaluated the impact of the adoption of this standard and believes its adoption has no material impact on our consolidated statements of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On February 24, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating, direct financing or sales-type leases. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting and presentation of share-based payments. The amendments require entities to record all tax effects related to share-based payments at settlement or expiration through the income statement and the windfall tax benefit to be recorded when it arises, subject to normal valuation allowance considerations. All tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments are required to be reported as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The updates relating to the income tax effects of the share-based payments including the cash flow presentation may be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively. Further, the amendments allow the entities to make an accounting policy election to either estimate forfeitures or recognize forfeitures as they occur. If an election is made, the change to recognize forfeitures as they occur must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to opening retained earnings. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this standard did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

Based upon that evaluation we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is described below.

Our management identified the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

Although we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2017: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.                 OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Other than described below, we know of no pending legal proceedings to which we are a party which are material or potentially material, either individually or in the aggregate. We are from time to time, during the normal course of our business operations, subject to various litigation claims and legal disputes. We do not believe that the ultimate disposition of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

On September 26, 2016, the Company filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida a Complaint against defendants The Mazzal Trust, Nissim S. Trabelsi and Shawn Telsi (collectively the “Defendants”), seeking the disgorgement of profits obtained by Defendants and certain of their shareholder affiliates defined under Rule 16a-1(a)(1) under the Exchange Act defined below (collectively, the “Group”) through “short swing profits” in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Specifically, the Company alleged that the Group acted under the guidance and control of the Defendants, whose individual defendants had filed forms 3 and 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”, declaring themselves to be “insiders” for the purpose of Section 16(b). The Group owned 100% of the shares of the Company at the time that members of the group were engaged in the sale and purchase of such shares. The sales and purchases referenced all occurred with six months of other sales and purchases, subjecting Defendants to disgorge to the Company all profits made by the Group in such sales and purchases. As detailed in paragraphs 16-22 of the Complaint, the total profits received by the Group is $1,695,689. Accordingly, the Company has demanded the return of all such profits to Registrant plus the statutory payment of attorneys’ fees.  On August 24, 2017, the court granted the Company a default judgment against Defendants.  The Company intends to vigorously pursue satisfaction of this judgment although there can be no assurance of the recovery of any funds from Defendants.

On January 26, 2017, the Company received an email from its transfer agent at that time, VStock Transfer, LLC, (“VStock”) informing the Company that it had been served with a Summons and Complaint (B2 Opportunity Fund (“B2”) v. Trabelsi et al. - Index No.:17-CV-10043, the “Claim”) and further stating that the Company was obligated to indemnify VStock for fees and expenses incurred in defending the Claim.  The Company responded on February 24, 2017 stating that (1) we reviewed the Transfer Agent and Registrar Agreement between Mazzal and VStock dated May 20, 2014 and that in Article VI(c) of that agreement it states that indemnification will not be offered if the acts of VStock constitute bad faith or gross negligence, (2) we reviewed the lawsuit filed by B2 against VStock and others and find that VStock’s actions constitute gross negligence and perhaps bad faith, and we therefore deny indemnification of VStock relating to the Claim, and (3) should VStock take any action to seek indemnification by Znergy in any manner, Znergy will either join B2 in its lawsuit or will file an action on its own. The Company terminated its agreement with VStock. Management cannot at this time estimate what, if any, financial impact this matter will have on the Company.

Item 5. Other Information.

Amendment of Articles of Incorporation; Name Change; Status

On May 31, 2016, the Company filed a definitive information statement on Schedule 14C to provide information to the Company’s stockholders relating to an action taken by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock to amend the Company’s articles of incorporation to change the name of the Company from Mazzal Holding Company to Znergy, Inc. The Board of Directors of the Company approved the amendment and name change and recommended the amendment to the shareholders of the Company. On May 13, 2016, the holders of 94,498,335 shares of the Company’s common stock, constituting approximately 52.48% of the outstanding shares, approved the amendment and the name change. On July 15, 2016, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Nevada to effectuate the name change.
