Notes
to Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note
1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by
ValueRich, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these
condensed financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited
interim condensed financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments,
all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of
the results for the interim period presented. Although management believes the
disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not
misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2007. Operating results for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.

preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. The
Company bases its estimates on historical experience, management expectations
for future performance, and other assumptions as appropriate. Key areas affected
by estimates include the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets,
which is based on such factors as estimated future cash flows. The Company
re-evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis; actual results may vary from
those estimates.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit
risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. The Company
places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed
the FDIC insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of
the customer’s financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to
losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial
condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains
allowances for anticipated losses, as required. Accounts are “written-off” when
deemed uncollectible.

Cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of
deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three
months or less.
Marketable
Securities
The
Company has designated its investments in marketable securities as
available-for-sale. Such securities are carried at fair value with unrealized
gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported as accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholder's equity.
Investment income will be recognized on an accrual basis.
Property, Plant and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at historical cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The useful life and
depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the depreciation
method and period are consistent with the anticipated pattern of future economic
benefits. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses on
disposals are included in the results of operations.
The
Company provides for depreciation over the assets estimated lives as
follows:

Intangible
Asset
The
Company’s intangible asset consists of website development costs, incurred
throughout 2008, that are for the development of the Company's Internet website.
These costs have been capitalized when acquired and installed, and are being
amortized over three years. The Company accounts for these costs in accordance
with EITF 00-2, "Accounting for Website Development Costs," which specifies the
appropriate accounting for costs incurred in connection with the development and
maintenance of websites. Amortization expense amounted to $5,730 and $7,467
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
respectively.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS
144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,”
and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting
the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The
Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be
held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses
to be recorded on
VALUERICH,
Inc.
Notes
to Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)
long-lived
assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than
the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the
long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in
a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of
disposal. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of September 30,
2008 and December 31, 2007, there were no significant impairments of its
long-lived assets.
On
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS
No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for
disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for
fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for
receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and
are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time
between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and
their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as
follow:
·
|
Level
1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for
identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
|
·
|
Level
2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for
substantially the full term of the financial
instrument.
|
·
|
Level
3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to
the fair value measurement.
|
As of
September 30, 2008, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that
are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.
Revenues
are recognized in the period that services are provided. For revenue from
product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB104”), which superseded
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”
(“SAB101”). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue
can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2)
delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4)
collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are
based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices
of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions
for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and
other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are
recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product
has
VALUERICH,
Inc.
Notes
to Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)
not been
delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the
customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will
be required. Payments received in advance are deferred until the product is
delivered or service is rendered. SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task
Force 00-21 (“EITF 00-21”), “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” EITF
00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or
performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The
effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on our financial position and results of
operations was not significant.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided based upon the asset and liability method of accounting in
accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Pursuant to SFAS
No. 109 the Company is required to compute deferred income tax assets for net
operating losses carried forward. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or
settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and
liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date. Realizing of deferred tax assets is assessed throughout the year and a
valuation allowance is recorded if necessary to reduce net deferred tax assets
to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The potential benefits of net
operating losses (“NOLs”) 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.
The
Company has an NOL carry forward for income tax reporting purposes that may be
offset against future taxable income. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss
available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change
in ownership occurs. Accordingly, the amount available to offset future taxable
income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial
statements, because the Company is uncertain if they will ever be in a position
to utilize the NOL carry forward. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the
loss carry forward are offset by a valuation allowance of the same
amount.
The
Company is current in its filing of federal income tax returns. The Company
believes that the statutes of limitations for its federal income tax returns are
open for years after 2004. The Company is not currently under examination by the
Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.
The
Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes”, during 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is
“more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax
examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount
recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely
of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely
than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no affect on the
Company’s financial statements.
VALUERICH,
Inc.
Notes

(unaudited)
The
Company’s practice is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax
benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. At September
30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had no accrued interest or
penalties.
Basic and Diluted Losses Per
Share
Earnings
per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial accounting
standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), “Earnings Per Share”. SFAS No. 128 superseded
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.15 (APB 15). Net earnings per share for
all periods presented have been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No.
128. Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption
that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or
exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under
this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the
beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds
obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price
during the period. All dilutive securities were excluded from the diluted loss
per share due to the anti-diluted effect.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No.
123R, “Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” The Company
recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock
options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and
non-employees. During the three months ended September 30, 2008 the Company
issued no shares of its common stock nor did it grant any new options or
warrants and no options or warrants were cancelled or exercised during the three
months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
there were 2,376,494 warrants and 100,000 options outstanding.
Special Purpose
Entities
The
Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing activities.
Certain
reclassifications have been made to the 2007 financial statements to conform to
the 2008 financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect
on net income or cash flows as previously reported.
Recent
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB 110”), which expresses the
views of the SEC staff regarding the use of a “simplified” method, as discussed
in the previously issued SAB 107, in developing an estimate of expected
term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with
SFAS No. 123(R), Share-
VALUERICH,
Inc.
Notes

(unaudited)
Based Payment. In particular,
the SEC staff indicated in SAB 107 that it will accept a company’s election
to use the simplified method, regardless of whether the company has sufficient
information to make more refined estimates of expected term. At the time
SAB 107 was issued, the SEC staff believed that more detailed external
information about employee exercise behavior (e.g., employee exercise patterns
by industry and/or other categories of companies) would, over time, become
readily available to companies. Therefore, the SEC staff stated in SAB 107
that it would not expect a company to use the simplified method for share option
grants after December 31, 2007. The SEC staff understands that such
detailed information about employee exercise behavior may not be widely
available by December 31, 2007. Accordingly, the SEC staff will continue to
accept, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method beyond
December 31, 2007. Upon the Company’s adoption of
SFAS No. 123(R), the Company elected to use the simplified method to
estimate the Company’s expected term.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), “Business
Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) changes how a reporting
enterprise accounts for the acquisition of a business. SFAS No. 141
(Revised 2007) requires an acquiring entity to recognize all the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value,
with limited exceptions, and applies to a wider range of transactions or events.
SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or
after December 15, 2008 and early adoption and retrospective application is
prohibited. The Company believes adopting SFAS No. 141R will
significantly impact its financial statements for any business combination
completed after December 31, 2008.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements”, which is an amendment of Accounting Research
Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51. This statement clarifies that a
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the
consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated
financial statements. This statement changes the way the consolidated
income statement is presented, thus requiring consolidated net income to be
reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both parent and the
noncontrolling interest. This statement is effective for the fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. Based on current conditions, the Company does not
expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on its results of
operations or financial position.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to
choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been
elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008. The Company chose not to
elect the option to measure the fair value of eligible financial assets and
liabilities.
In June
2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF 07-3, “Accounting for
Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for use in Future
Research and Development Activities” (“FSP EITF 07-3”), which addresses whether
nonrefundable
VALUERICH,
Inc.
Notes

advance
payments for goods or services that used or rendered for research and
development activities should be expensed when the advance payment is made or
when the research and development activity has been performed. Management is
currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial
statements.
In June
2008, the FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 07-5 “Determining whether
an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF
No. 07-5”). This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging
Activities” (“SFAS 133”) specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the
definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own
stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of
financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument.
EITF No.07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether
a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own
stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception.
The Company believes adopting this statement will have a material impact on the
financial statements because among other things, any option or warrant
previously issued and all new issuances denominated in US dollars will be
required to be carried as a liability and marked to market each reporting
period.
In April
2008, the FASB issued 142-3 “Determination of the useful life of Intangible
Assets”, which amends the factors a company should consider when developing
renewal assumptions used to determine the useful life of an intangible asset
under SFAS142. This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. SFAS 142 requires companies to consider whether renewal can be
completed without substantial cost or material modification of the existing
terms and conditions associated with the asset. FSP 142-3 replaces the previous
useful life criteria with a new requirement—that an entity consider its own
historical experience in renewing similar arrangements. If historical experience
does not exist then the Company would consider market participant assumptions
regarding renewal including 1) highest and best use of the asset by a market
participant, and 2) adjustments for other entity-specific factors included in
SFAS 142. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting SFAS
No.142-3 will have on its financial statements.
Effective
July 1, 2008 and continuing for a period of 2 years, the Company has been
engaged to perform strategic business consulting services to Bodisen Biotech. As
compensation for the consulting services, Bodisen Biotech has agreed
to:
(a)
|
Issue
to the Company 400,000 shares of Bodisen Biotech common stock to the
Company up front;
|
(b)

Issue

The
Company has also recorded $60,000 in marketable securities and corresponding
revenue for the 400,000 shares received on September 18, 2008. The marketable
securities have been classified as available-for-sale. These securities are
carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income
taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate
component of stockholder's equity. The investment in these shares has been
valued at $100,000 at September 30, 2008, and accordingly a $40,000 unrealized
gain has been recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income at September
30, 2008 in the accompanying balance sheets.
The
Company has valued the options received under the consulting agreement using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option exercise price is $0.70 per
share. The fair value of the options was $25,800 and the following
assumptions: term of 2.5 years, a risk free interest rate
of 2.1%, a dividend yield of 0% and volatility of 128%. Management has
performed an analysis and determined the options are impaired at September 30,
2008, and therefore the Company has recorded a 100% allowance against the value
of the options.
For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company has recognized
$30,000, less wire fees, in consulting revenues relating to the cash component
of its consulting compensation.
Note
4 – Derivative Liability
As of
September 30, 2008 the Company has an outstanding liability to its IR firm of
100,000 shares of its common stock, which is valued at $100,000. Per the terms
of the agreement, the Company must register these shares with the SEC and AMEX,
and accordingly, until successfully done, the Company carries the $100,000
liability on its Balance Sheet as a derivative liability.

10 – Subsequent Events
Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
This
discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
Condensed Financial Statements and related notes. Our discussion and analysis of
our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any
contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of
revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis we review
our estimates and assumptions. Our estimates are based on our historical
experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting policies, the
policies we believe are most important to the presentation of our financial
statements and require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, are
outlined below in ‘‘Critical Accounting Policies,’’ and have not changed
significantly.
FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
Certain
statements made in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements on our current expectations and
projections about future events”. These forward-looking statements
involve known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases you can identify
forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “potential,”
“continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,”
“estimates,” and similar expressions. These statements are based on our current
beliefs, expectations, and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties. Although we believe that the expectations reflected-in the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results,
levels of activity, performance or achievements. These forward-looking statements are
made as of the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update these
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise, other than as required by law. In light of these
assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, the forward-looking events discussed in
this report might not occur and actual results and events may vary significantly
from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.
General
The
following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our
condensed financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December
31, 2007 included in our Form 10K-SB for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The discussion of
results, causes and trends should not be construed to imply any conclusion that
such results or trends will necessarily continue in the future.
Our
Corporate History
ValueRich,
Inc., (the Company), was incorporated under the laws of the state of Florida on
July 11, 2003 and reincorporated in Delaware on March 3, 2006. The Company owns
various online and offline media-based properties for corporate and financial
professionals. Its properties include 1) iValueRich.com, 2) ValueRich magazine
and 3) the ValueRich Small-cap Financial Expo. iValueRich.com is an online
community providing a range of business solutions for public companies and the
many industry related businesses and professionals that seek to do business with
each other. The small-cap financial expo is a unique expo-style financial
conference format for small-cap public companies to showcase their products and
services and have continuous access to investment bankers and buy-side
professionals.
We have a
limited operating history. We launched iValuerich.com in June 2006, we hosted
our first financial expo in March 2005, and we published our first edition of
ValueRich magazine in the spring of 2004. During our limited operating history,
we have not been profitable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we
incurred a net loss of $809,561.
Our
corporate mission is to create an active community of Wall Street professionals
and small-cap public company executives. To accomplish this we will use our
online and offline properties, including our global Internet community, print
publishing and financial events to connect the corporate and financial
professionals that make up the securities industry. We seek to accomplish this
through our integrated portfolio of products and services that we now provide
for the small public capitalization market place.
Results
of Operations
Our
results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2008 have been
significantly impacted by our decision to revise our financial expo line of
business to be a co-branded or partnered expo in response to increased
competition we have experienced in the financial convention space. Since we were
unable until mid second quarter to find a suitable partner to co-brand or
partner our expos, we did not have any expo events during the first three
quarters of 2008 as we had planned, and therefore we did not derive any revenue
from expos during such quarters.
For the three month period
ended September 30, 2008 vs. the three month period ended September 30,
2007
During
the quarter ended September 30, 2008, we generated $89,950 in revenue that arose
from consulting services we provided. During the same period of 2007,
we had revenues of $0. Our total cost of sales for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 was $1,560 as compared to $40,878 for the three months ended
September 30, 2007. Total operating expenses decreased significantly
from $991,217 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $289,599 for the
three months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in total
operating expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease in salaries as a
result in downsizing due to a change in our focus. Net loss for the quarter
ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the period ended September 30, 2007
decreased from $1,017,224 to $187,513 primarily as a result of the decrease in
revenues and consequently a decrease in staffing costs.
For the nine month period
ended September 30, 2008 vs. the nine month period ended September 30,
2007
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we generated $89,950 in revenue that
arose from consulting services we provided. During the same period of
2007, we had revenues of $891,617. Our total cost of sales for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008 was $7,876 as compared to $678,058 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007. Total operating expenses decreased between
the periods from $1,649,187 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to
$1,000,448 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease
in total operating expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease in salaries
as a result in downsizing due to a change in our focus. Net loss for the nine
months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $809,561 from $1,439,708 for the
same period ended September 30, 2007 primarily as a result of the decrease in
revenues.
Our
Plan of Operation
Although
we believe we have been successful in building brand recognition, we are
currently revising our financial expo line of business to be a co-branded or
partnered expo in response to increased competition we have experienced in the
financial convention space. We believe that our future events will be
a co-branded and partnered expo with one or more of the investment banks and
service providers that directly benefit from their access to micro-cap
companies, so as to leverage on our brand recognition and reduce direct and
indirect overhead costs. We have recently found that in many cases
our clients are being offered free and/or no charge presentation spots at
investment banking conferences where the host investment bank derives revenue
not from charging the exhibiting companies to present but rather from the
investment banking fees derived from engaging the invited company and generating
revenue from investment banking services, consulting and advisory fees. In
addition, as the sole host of our events, we have experienced that we were
carrying a majority of the financial exposure and overhead to these events,
while the banks and service providers that simply sponsored or attended our
events were benefiting equally. While we have found a co partner for our
upcoming expo and we intend to continue to share the financial exposure and
infrastructure with investment banks, service providers and Wall Street
professionals that gain from these events no assurance, however, can be given
especially in light of the current negative market environment that we will be
able to continue to secure a co-partner for these events.
We have
also made changes to our magazine line of business in an effort to reduce costs
and increase revenue derived from the magazine, which include the decision to
publish our magazine digitally. The magazine will maintain its format, lay-out
and size, and we believe the user experience will not change dramatically. We
also expect that the on-line user friendly publishing format will increase the
deliverable format to a wider and broader market of new readers. The Internet
and online publishing platform also allows us to attract more readers and
subscribers for substantially decreased costs. As a result, we expect our direct
and indirect expenses for publishing the magazine, such as printing and mailing
costs to decrease dramatically.
We are
also actively involved in seeking to secure an interest in a licensed FINRA
broker-dealer. We believe that leveraging our database and clients along with
the contacts and relationships established by our conference and Media business,
would enable us to benefit from the fee generated side of the banking
business
We are
also in the process of launching a new web property, WallStreetHDTV.com aimed at
helping companies raise capital, go public and attract shareholders. We plan to
harness the global power of the internet to present client offerings to
enable clients to raise capital through investment banks, brokerage firms, fund
managers and institutional and qualified investors
around
the world using our high-definition multi-media Web player.
WallStreetHDTV.com will produce a high-definition (HD) video presentation in our
state-of-the-art studio, then make it accessible in a
SEC compliant Web-based presentation to a global audience of
investment banks, brokerage firms, fund managers and institutional and
qualified investors. The proprietary WallStreetHDTV.com streaming-video Web
player will synchronize a company’s HD video with their PowerPoint
presentation and offer the prospectus or other related financial
documents for download. Investment bankers, brokers and other financial
professionals, will be able to use WallStreetHDTV.com’s book
marking and sharing tools to expand the presentation audience exponentially
around the world.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 we had a decrease in total cash resources
of $1,020,350. The decrease in cash was due in most part to lack of sales to
offset costs and professional and consulting expenses. Noncash stock issuances
was $88,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
We have
spent, and expect to continue to spend, substantial amounts in connection with
the implementation of our business strategy, including our revisions to our
current lines of business and our future endeavors. Based on our current plans,
we believe that our cash will be sufficient to enable us to meet our planned
operating needs at least for the next 12 months. Because of current economic and
market conditions and due to the unknown future of our nations’s economic
health, we have taken prudent measures to manage our cash position and not force
the growth of our core business.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We do not
maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other
relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a
material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of
operations.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. We
base our estimates on historical experience, management expectations for future
performance, and other assumptions as appropriate. Key areas affected by
estimates include the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets,
which is based on such factors as estimated future cash flows. We re-evaluate
our estimates on an ongoing basis; actual results may vary from those
estimates.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk,
consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. We place our cash
with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC
insurance limit. We extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s
financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on
receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial condition. We
monitor our exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated
losses, as required. Accounts are “written-off” when deemed
uncollectible.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of
deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three
months or less.
Marketable
Securities
The
Company has designated its investments in marketable securities as
available-for-sale. Such securities are carried at fair value with unrealized
gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported as accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholder's equity.
Investment income will be recognized on an accrual basis.
Property, Plant and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at historical cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The useful life and
depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the depreciation
method and period are consistent with the anticipated pattern of future economic
benefits. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses on
disposals are included in the results of operations.
We
provide for depreciation over the assets estimated lives as
follows:

Intangible
Asset
The
Company’s intangible asset consists of website development costs, incurred
throughout 2008, that are for the development of the Company's Internet website.
These costs have been capitalized when acquired and installed, and are being
amortized over three years. The Company accounts for these costs in accordance
with EITF 00-2, "Accounting for Website Development Costs," which specifies the
appropriate accounting for costs incurred in connection with the development and
maintenance of websites. Amortization expense amounted to $5,730 and $7,467
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
respectively.
Long-Lived
Assets
We apply
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144,
“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”),
which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,”
and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting
the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” We
periodically evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and
used in accordance
with SFAS
144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets
used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than
the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the
long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in
a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of
disposal. Based on our review, we believe that, as of September 30, 2008 and
December 31, 2007, there were no significant impairments of our long-lived
assets.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments and Concentrations
On
January 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157
defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for
disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for
fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for
receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and
are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time
between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and
their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as
follow:
·
|
Level
1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for
identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
|
·
|
Level
2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for
substantially the full term of the financial
instrument.
|
·
|
Level
3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to
the fair value measurement.
|
As of
September 30, 2008, we did not identify any assets and liabilities that are
required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
are recognized in the period that services are provided. For revenue from
product sales, we recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB104”), which superseded Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB101”). SAB
101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be
recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has
occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4)
collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are
based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices
of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions
for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and
other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are
recorded. We defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or
is subject to refund until such time that we and the customer jointly determine
that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. Payments
received in advance are deferred until the product is delivered or service is
rendered. SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21 (“EITF 00-21”),
“Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” EITF 00-21 addresses
accounting
for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple
products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing EITF
00-21 on our financial position and results of operations was not
significant.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided based upon the asset and liability method of accounting in
accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Pursuant to SFAS
No. 109 we are required to compute deferred income tax assets for net operating
losses carried forward. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. The effect
of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date. Realizing of deferred tax
assets is assessed throughout the year and a valuation allowance is recorded if
necessary to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not
to be realized. The potential benefits of net operating losses (“NOLs”) 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 have
an NOL carry forward for income tax reporting purposes that may be offset
against future taxable income. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss
available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change
in ownership occurs. Accordingly, the amount available to offset future taxable
income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial
statements, because the Company is uncertain if they will ever be in a position
to utilize the NOL carry forward. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the
loss carry forward are offset by a valuation allowance of the same
amount.
We are
current in our filing of federal income tax returns. We believe that the
statutes of limitations for its federal income tax returns are open for years
after 2004. We are not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority.
We
adopted FASB Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”,
during 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more
likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination,
with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the
largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized
on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test,
no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no affect on our financial
statements.
Our
practice is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits
in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. At September 30, 2008
and December 31, 2007, we had no accrued interest or
penalties.
Basic and Diluted Losses Per
Share
Earnings
per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial accounting
standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), “Earnings Per Share”. SFAS No. 128 superseded
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.15 (APB 15). Net earnings per share for
all periods presented have been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No.
128. Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption
that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or
exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under
this
method,
options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period
(or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were
used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. All
dilutive securities were excluded from the diluted loss per share due to the
anti-diluted effect.
Stock-Based
Compensation
We
account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R,
“Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” We recognize in
the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other
equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees. During the
three months ended September 30, 2008 we issued no shares of our common stock
nor did it grant any new options or warrants and no options or warrants were
cancelled or exercised during the three months ended September 30, 2008. As of
September 30, 2008, there were 2,376,494 warrants and 100,000 options
outstanding.
Special Purpose
Entities
We do not
have any off-balance sheet financing activities.
Reclassification
Certain
reclassifications have been made to the 2007 financial statements to conform to
the 2008 financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect
on net income or cash flows as previously reported.
Recent
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB 110”), which expresses the
views of the SEC staff regarding the use of a “simplified” method, as discussed
in the previously issued SAB 107, in developing an estimate of expected
term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with
SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. In
particular, the SEC staff indicated in SAB 107 that it will accept a
company’s election to use the simplified method, regardless of whether the
company has sufficient information to make more refined estimates of expected
term. At the time SAB 107 was issued, the SEC staff believed that more
detailed external information about employee exercise behavior (e.g., employee
exercise patterns by industry and/or other categories of companies) would, over
time, become readily available to companies. Therefore, the SEC staff stated in
SAB 107 that it would not expect a company to use the simplified method for
share option grants after December 31, 2007. The SEC staff understands that
such detailed information about employee exercise behavior may not be widely
available by December 31, 2007. Accordingly, the SEC staff will continue to
accept, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method beyond
December 31, 2007. Upon our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), we
elected to use the simplified method to estimate the Company’s expected
term.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), “Business
Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) changes how a reporting
enterprise accounts for the acquisition of a business. SFAS No. 141
(Revised 2007) requires an acquiring entity to recognize all the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair
value, with limited exceptions, and applies to a wider range of transactions or
events. SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) is effective for fiscal years beginning
on or after December 15, 2008 and early adoption and
retrospective
application is prohibited. We believe adopting SFAS No. 141R will
significantly impact our financial statements for any business combination
completed after December 31, 2008.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements”, which is an amendment of Accounting Research
Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51. This statement clarifies that a
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the
consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the
consolidated financial statements. This statement changes the
way the consolidated income statement is presented, thus requiring consolidated
net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to
both parent and the noncontrolling interest. This statement is
effective for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Based on current conditions,
we do not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on our
results of operations or financial position.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to
choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been
elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning
of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. We adopted
SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008. We chose not to elect the option to measure the
fair value of eligible financial assets and liabilities.
In June
2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF 07-3, “Accounting for
Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for use in Future
Research and Development Activities” (“FSP EITF 07-3”), which addresses whether
nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that used or rendered for
research and development activities should be expensed when the advance payment
is made or when the research and development activity has been performed.
Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial
statements.
In June
2008, the FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 07-5 “Determining whether
an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF
No. 07-5”). This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging
Activities” (“SFAS 133”) specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the
definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s
own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of
financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument.
EITF No.07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether
a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own
stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception.
We believe adopting this statement will have a material impact on the financial
statements because among other things, any option or warrant previously issued
and all new issuances denominated in US dollars will be required to be carried
as a liability and marked to market each reporting period.
In April
2008, the FASB issued 142-3 “Determination of the useful life of Intangible
Assets”, which amends the factors a company should consider when developing
renewal assumptions used to determine the useful life of an intangible asset
under SFAS142. This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim
periods
within those fiscal years. SFAS 142 requires companies to consider whether
renewal can be completed without substantial cost or material modification of
the existing terms and conditions associated with the asset. FSP 142-3 replaces
the previous useful life criteria with a new requirement—that an entity consider
its own historical experience in renewing similar arrangements. If historical
experience does not exist then we would consider market participant assumptions
regarding renewal including 1) highest and best use of the asset by a market
participant, and 2) adjustments for other entity-specific factors included in
SFAS 142. We are currently evaluating the impact that adopting SFAS No.142-3
will have on our financial statements.
N/A
Item
4T – Controls and Procedures
As
required by SEC rules, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period
covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer, who is our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer. Based on this evaluation, this officer has concluded
that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective. During the quarter ended September 30, 2008, there were no changes in
our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
Disclosure
controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and
procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in
the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated
to our management, including principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. In designing and evaluating our controls and procedures, our
management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how
well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are
met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures,
our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and
procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also
is based in part upon 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.
