MARCH 31, 2017 (UNAUDITED)

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. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 condensed 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.

 

NOTE 2 – 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 March 31, 2017, the Company has a working capital deficit of $304,236, insufficient cash resources to meet its planned business objectives and accumulated losses from operations of $8,729,661. 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 March 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.

 

NOTE 3 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company was granted a federally registered trademark for “ZNERGY”. The cost of applying for and prosecuting this trademark was $1,845 which cost was accounted for as a non-amortizing intangible asset.

On February 2, 2017 the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Venture Legal Services, PLLC, to provide legal and strategic advisory services for the Company. In conjunction with the execution of this agreement, the Company granted Venture options to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $0.10 per share. The options have an expiration of three years from the date of issue and vest one option for every two dollars of revenue recognized by the Company on a quarterly basis.

NOTE 6 – 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 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 $143,679 and $6,080 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017, and March 31, 2016, respectively.  Revenues in 2017 comprise LED installation projects and associated rebates from utilities.

The Company incurred costs of revenue of $58,046 and $-0- for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017, and March 31, 2016, respectively.  Costs of revenue in 2017 comprise primarily LED product and installation costs.

The Company had general and administrative expenses of $863,646 and $37,320 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017, and March 31, 2016, respectively. General and administrative expenses in 2017 include a charge of $784,189 for the issuance of stock for services in addition to payroll, audit and legal expenses.

The Company had net losses of $778,013 and $31,240 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively, for the reasons explained above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had total current assets of $328,377 comprising $18,494 in cash, $116,690 in accounts receivable, $2,500 in prepaid expenses and $190,694 in inventory, and total current liabilities of $632,614 comprising $281,857 in accounts payable, $126,385 in accrued expenses, $143,622 in a loan from a related party and $80,750 in advances from third parties. Use of cash for operating activities totaled $50,636 and was primarily for funding an increase in accounts receivable of $37,078 and payments on accounts payable and accrued expenses of $16,024. The primary source of funds was advances from our affiliate in the amount of $7,873 and advances from third parties of $20,750. There are no guarantees that our affiliate will continue to advance funds to the Company or that the Company will be successful in raising funds from third parties to sustain our operations.

Our management does not anticipate the need to hire additional full or part-time employees of the Company or our subsidiaries over the next six months unless business development permits and requires us to, as the services provided by our two officers and our director appears sufficient at this time. We believe that our operations are currently on a small scale that is manageable by a few individuals. Further, we believe that the services provided by our officers and our director are sufficient for the operations of our subsidiary Global, and of its subsidiary Znergy. In addition, we may utilize professionals that will be considered independent contractors.

We currently do not own any significant property or equipment.

Plan of Operation

The Company’s anticipated plan of operation is to (1) identify and train sales personnel in regions of the country that have advantageous utility company rebate programs, (2) identify and train lighting installation personnel where we have established sales personnel, (3) seek out the best current and incipient solutions in the Energy Efficiency marketplace and become a reseller of those solutions, (4) develop our own solutions for the EE marketplace, and (5) seek to acquire other businesses in the market where such acquisitions makes strategic sense and are accretive to earnings.

The Company’s ability to grow its incipient operations is primarily dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital, most likely through the sale of additional shares of the Company’s common stock or other securities. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able raise additional capital on terms that are acceptable to the Company, or at all.

The realization of revenues in the next twelve months is important in the execution of the plan of operations. However, if the Company cannot raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash, or through obtaining commercial or bank financing, in order to continue as a going concern, the Company may have to curtail or cease its operations. As of the date of this Report, there were no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. The Company cannot assure any investor that, if needed, sufficient financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for operations to continue.

Critical Accounting Policies

The SEC has issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60,“Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In FRR 60, the Commission has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, 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 the 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. The deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) in excess of the deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) is classified as a current asset under “Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.” The deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) in excess of the deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) is classified under current liabilities as “Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts.” 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.  Rebate revenue is recognized when a project is completed and the rebate paperwork is submitted to and 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 March 31, 2017, the Company has a working capital deficit of $304,236, insufficient cash resources to meet its planned business objectives and accumulated losses from operations of $8,729,661. 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 March 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.

JOBS Act

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an “emerging growth company,” we have the option to delay adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies, until the earlier of the date that (i) we are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period for complying with such new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to opt out of this extended transition period. As noted, this election is irrevocable.

Our significant accounting policies, as described in our financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our Form 10-K filing of December 31, 2016, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

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. We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

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 must 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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 Chief Financial Officer, who is the same person, 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 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. As of the date of this Report, the Company had filed a notice of corporate action with FINRA, and was working with FINRA to complete the approval process to effectuate the name change in the trading market.
