ITEM
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
(a)
Business Development
Mizati
Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. (“Mizati”, “we”, “us”, “our”, the "Company" or the
"Registrant") was incorporated in the State of California in January 2001. We
are a designer, importer, and wholesaler of custom alloy wheels for cars, SUV’s
and light pickups.
(b)
Business of Issuer
The
Company operates in the wheels, tires, and suspension segment of the specialty
automotive equipment market. The Company’s mission is to become a
well-known brand to provide wheels, rims, and automotive accessories in the
United States within the next three to five years, while also penetrating into
international markets. Mizati works with four factories out of China that
supply all of the raw materials as well as the finished product. These
factories are Nanjing Huashun Co. Ltd, Jiangsu Kaite Auto Parts Co. Ltd, Max
Fung Trading Co., and Jiangsu Dare World Light Alloy Co. Ltd.
To
achieve our mission, we have been consistently involved in discussions with
several reputable wheel manufacturers in China, including one of the largest to
potentially be our R&D and production affiliate starting 2010. With
the setup for stable OEM/ODM supplies, we will then expand our network with
China, the Pacific Rim and Europe in design trends as well as enhanced
production capacity. As in all business discussions, we may and we may not
be able to reach any agreement with any of the wheel
manufacturer.
In order
to fund these plans, we are searching new investors through various channels,
and will consider private placements or public offerings. In the past two
years, management has identified potential merger and acquisition targets or
joint venture partners from our customers, potential suppliers and other parties
located in the United States and China in the size of total revenue between $10
and $20 million, who are willing to participate as a public company and develop
more business with group efforts. However, our current obstacle of the
shortage in available capital has been deferring these plans. In addition
to items discussed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section in Item 2.
Management Discussion and Analysis of this filing, in order to increase our
source of income and to support the Company’s capital needs before the above
expansion plans could be realized, management will also consider entering into
the OEM business by negotiating with global automotive manufacturers to be our
new customers, and take OEM orders from them to be manufactured through the
factories we are working with. There is no guarantee that we will receive
enough orders from those new customers to satisfy our capital needs in the near
term.
The
Specialty Equipment market is best defined by what it allows consumers to do—to
customize and personalize their vehicles with custom parts and accessories.
Not to be confused with the automotive aftermarket which encompasses
repair and replacement parts, automotive specialty-equipment products are
purchased out of choice rather than necessity. According to a Specialty
Equipment Marketing Association (SEMA) study, the wheels, tires, and suspension
segment of this market has grown at annual rate of approximately 8% over the
last decade with annual sales of $11 billion in 2008. In 2008, this
segment composed 24% of the Specialty Equipment Market. The custom wheel
market is generally divided into five product categories; aluminum wheels,
composite wheels, modular wheels, steel wheels and custom wheel accessories.
Information regarding the source can be found www.sema.org.
This is available to SEMA members only on the sema website,
www.sema.org
.
As of Feb 1, 2010, SEMA has not provided further updates on
market data for the year 2009.
For
the year ended December 31, 2009 we generated revenues of $601,618, which
comprises approximately 100% of wheels and wheel caps, and had a net loss of
($929,056). The revenue and net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008
was $2,431,544 and ($1,250,333), respectively. With this recession, we
have seen a substantial decrease in revenues and gross profit in our most recent
fiscal year.
However,
our auditor has raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a
going concern. Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses,
and has not demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from
operations to satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations. The Company
had accumulated deficit of ($2,718,586) and ($2,147,130) as of December 31, 2009
and 2008, including net losses of ($929,056) and ($1,250,333) for the years then
ended. In addition, current liabilities exceeded current assets by
$2,335,140 and $1,734,756 at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively. These factors indicate that the Company may not be able to
continue its business in the future. The Company finances its operations
by short term and long term bank borrowings with more reliance on the use of
short-term borrowings as the corresponding borrowing costs are lower compared to
long-term borrowings. There can be no assurance that such borrowings will
be available to the company in the future. For more details, please refer to
Note 2 “Going Concern” in our financial statements for the year ended December
31, 2009 herewith.
The wheel
industry was historically founded on the basis of racing and performance
products and was originally driven by street racing and hot rods. Over
time, the industry has shifted away from performance attributes and instead
become more of an urban style-driven market and a discrete off-road
market.
The
Company’s products are targeted at four discrete categories of
purchaser:
|
Ø
|
Light trucks: The light-truck
market is that part of the industry that produces and sells the parts that
change the appearance, performance and/or handling of light-trucks
(pickups, vans, and sport utility vehicles). This niche is the largest of
all in this segment.
|
|
Ø
|
Street
performance: The street performance market is focused on high
performance modern cars such as the Ford Mustang ™ and the Chevrolet
Corvette ™.
|
|
Ø
|
Restyling: The
restyling market involves the aftermarket addition of products, such as
wheels, to new vehicles.
|
|
Ø
|
The “off road” market which is
comprised of sport utility vehicles and larger off road
trucks.
|
Target
Market
The urban
lifestyles market is generally comprised of enthusiasts who are trend-conscious
and place a heavy emphasis on style. This market can be impulse-buy
oriented and its purchase decisions are influenced by radio, television
programs, and popular publications. In addition to this particular market,
we also cater to car enthusiasts. The general demographic of this market
are males ranging from ages 18-35 and is all encompassing in terms of ethnic
backgrounds. We have noted a recent shift trending towards a greater
number of purchases by females.
Products
We have
three lines of wheel products for cars, trucks, and sport utility vehicles.
The lines are identified as the Mizati, Hero, and Zati product
lines.
The Zati
line is comprised of six products – the Fix, Blast Furious, Drift, Piper,
Strength and Galan. The Hero line is comprised of ten products which are the
Rebel, Rogue, Ronin, Saint, Sage, Savant, Salient, Seer, Maestro and Amore.
The Mizati line is comprised of fifteen products which are the
Ace, Apollo, Double D, Klick, Lotus, Face Off, Fusion, Manza, I Candy,
Illuminati, Stix, X ta C, Toro, Grand and Grande.
Currently,
the Company’s product pipeline is composed of one-piece alloy wheels ranging
from 18” to 26” in diameter of various widths. One-piece cast wheels are
manufactured using a simple and rapid production process where the rim and the
center is molded as one integral unit thereby eliminating the costs associated
with an outside supplier of outer rims and reduced assembly and handling
costs.
The
majority of our wheels are chrome, but we do carry certain styles in black or
silver. In the wheel industry, sizing tends to dictate pricing. For
example, the larger the wheel, the greater the price, and the higher the profit
margin. Our wheels range anywhere from $120 for an 18” to $425 for a 26”.
However, we do provide volume discounts for bulk shipments to our
distributors.
We
continually assess industry trends, the marketplace and product positioning. The
Company is committed to adding selected new product lines in order to build its
customer loyalty into a broader based business. Mizati currently has three
different product lines: Mizati, Hero, and Zati. By manufacturing three
separate lines, Mizati has improved its ability to retain larger accounts by
offering exclusivity of a particular line to selected distributors.
As we
develop new designs for 2010, we will focus on differentiating the product
lines. Mizati will be our high end line with designs in one piece molds,
as well as off-road designs. We will also develop a smaller line to
include 17” wheels. Hero will be all chrome, one-piece wheels whose styles
reflect current trends in the industry. Zati line will be composed mainly
of painted wheels which allow consumers to color match wheels to their
vehicle.
Sales
Cycle
Our sales
tend to be seasonal in nature based on a nine month sales cycle. Industry
sales usually ramp up in February and begin to slow down in October. This
is due in large part to the annual SEMA show in November where distributors are
eager to see and place orders for next year’s lines. In addition,
increment weather in late fall and winter reduces demand for aftermarket wheels.
The introduction of new products coincides with the industry wide “nine
month sales cycle”.
Distribution
We
distribute our products through wheel and tire distributors both nationwide and
internationally. Through our distribution network, products are available
for retail purchase at wheel stores as well as some of the major tire stores
including Firestone, America’s Tire, Les Schwab Tire Center and Discount
Tires
.
Geographically, the largest markets for our products are Southern
California, Texas and Florida. Our five largest distributors are spread
over the following regions: Texas, North Carolina, California, and Mexico.
We have established distribution of our products in several regions of the
United States.
We
currently have 650 distributors that sell our products.
Our top five distributors based on total sales for 2009 are Rent A
Wheel: $138,573, ETI: $91,847, Coast to Coast: $49,491, L.A. Tire & Chrome:
$29,026, and Pacific Tire: $27,666. As a total percentage of 2009 sales,
these top five distributors composed the following, respectively: 23%, 15%, 8%,
5%, and 5%. Our top five distributors based on total sales for 2008 are
ETI: $374,720, Rent A Wheel: $232,611, Southern Wheel Distributors:
$151,612, Performance Wheel Styles, $122,558, and Mobile Entertainment:
$119,892. As a total percentage of 2008 sales, these top five distributors
composed the following, respectively: 15%, 10%, 6%, 5%, and 5%. As we
expand our outside sales force nationwide over the next couple years, we expect
be able to penetrate into new markets. To accomplish these goals, we will
place an aggressive sales commission program through increased commission
percentage from the conventional 1% to 3%-5%. The commission percentage
will increase progressively based on dollar amount of sales. The higher
the dollar amount of sales, the higher the commission rate will be, although,
there is no guarantee that we will have sufficient funds to launch those
marketing efforts in the timeframe as set forth above.
Our
revenue base is diversified in that no distributor makes up the majority of our
revenues. It is spread relatively evenly across our total distributor
base. This revenue mix ensures that the loss of a key account would not
adversely impact our total revenue.
Manufacturing
We work
with four separate manufacturing facilities in China which are located in Jiang
Su and the Nanjin provinces. Our four manufacturing partners are Nanjing
Huashun Co. Ltd, Jiangsu Kaite Auto Parts Co. Ltd, Max Fung Trading Co., and
Jiangsu Dare World Light Alloy Co. Ltd. This allows for redundancy in the
event that one manufacturer is unable to timely manufacture our products.
Orders are generally delivered to our warehouse within 45 days of
order placement. New wheel designs can take up to 75 days for shipment due
to the time it takes for mold design.
We do not
face the risk of limited supply with our raw input materials, but are subject to
fluctuations in the price of materials. In the past we have been able to
negotiate terms with our manufactures that allow us to lock in a set price for
the year. In order to lock in prices, we have historically made volume
commitments to our manufacturing partners. In late 2007, China signed a
memorandum rescinding a raft of tax breaks and subsidies. As a result of
this, along with higher raw material prices, our manufacturing partners in China
did not allow us to lock in prices for 2008. Accordingly, our production
costs are subject to market fluctuations. These trends do not affect us
exclusively, but rather the industry as a whole. We have established
strong relationships with all of our manufacturing partners and expect these
partnerships to continue for the long term.
Trademark/Brand
Recognition
Brand
identity is the key to success in the wheel industry. We are a young
company that has worked hard to develop a strong brand name through the
introduction of high quality products, a robust product pipeline, strategic
marketing campaigns, and solid relationships with distributors. As we
launch new marketing initiatives in fiscal year 2009, we hope to enhance our
brand awareness. In early 2009, we have implemented a strategic marketing
campaign including sponsoring our customers with a free set of wheel for their
open house raffle. We also participate in local community car show with
sponsoring set of our wheel onto the show car. .
Competitive
Landscape
The
Specialty Automotive Equipment market is highly fragmented with small private
companies. Notable private competitors include Giovanna Wheels ™, Asanti
Wheels ™, and Lexani Wheels ™. Competition in this market revolves around
price, quality, reliability, styling, product features, and warranty.
Pricing of competitors products tends to be slightly higher than ours.
At the dealer level, competition is based mainly on sales and marketing
support programs, such as financing and cooperative advertising. Giovanna
Wheels ™, Asanti Wheels ™, and Lexani Wheels ™ possess stronger financial
capabilities, deeper distribution channels, and strong brand awareness which in
turn provide formidable competition for a young company the size of Mizati which
does not possess similar financial resources..
Industry
Regulations/Standards:
Industry
guidelines and regulations are established through Congress and monitored by the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) under the umbrella of the
Department of Transportation (DOT). In response to the Firestone/Ford
sport utility vehicle tire recalls, Congress enacted the Transportation, Recall
Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation (TREAD) Act, on November 1, 2000.
TREAD required the NHTSA to multiple rulemaking actions in a variety of areas
including tire safety standards. The DOT develops, promotes, and
implements effective educational, engineering, and enforcement programs directed
toward ending preventable tragedies and reducing safety-related economic costs
associated with vehicle use and highway travel. We are in compliance with
DOT regulations regarding our wheels.
Governmental
Operations
Our
business is affected by numerous laws and regulations. To ensure that our
operations are conducted in full and substantial regulatory compliance, as part
of our current internal procedures and policies, we verify and ensure that the
manufacturing process of all our suppliers in China had obtained ISO 9000/9001
certification. They had also passed the Quality Standard TS16949-2002 and
Testing Standard USA SEA J2530 or Japan JWL (VIA). Trade and product
safety are governed by the DOT. Upon placing orders with our manufacturing
suppliers, we ensure that all our products are produced based on standards as
set forth by the DOT of the U.S.
Failure
to comply with any laws and regulations may result in the assessment of
administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of injunctive
relief or both. Moreover, changes in any of these laws and regulations could
have a material adverse effect on business. In view of the many uncertainties
with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their
applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and
regulations on our future operations.
We
believe that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws
and regulations, and that the existence and enforcement of such laws and
regulations have no more restrictive an effect on our operations than on other
similar companies in the automotive industry. We do not anticipate any material
capital expenditures to comply with federal and state environmental
requirements.
Research
and Development
We do not
have a budget specifically allocated for research and development purposes. Our
research costs are minimal. We initiate design ideas in-house among our
creative team, select what we believe are the best ones, and collaborate with
our design team in China to create a final sketch. Our design team there
works closely with our manufacturing partners to create a sample product.
After we approve a physical sample design, we move forward with
production. Because our in-house design team fits the demographic profile
of our customers, we feel we have been able to create innovative wheel designs
that both reflect current trends and fashions while still appealing to our
target consumer’s desire for individuality.
Employees
As of
December 31, 2009 we had three full time employees and one 1099 contractor.
A 1099 independent contractor is a person or business who performs
services for the Company who is not subject to our control, or right to control,
the manner and means of performing the services.
Reports
to security holders.
(1) The
Company is not required to deliver an annual report to security holders, and at
this time does not anticipate the distribution of such a report.
(2) The
Company will file reports with the SEC. The Company will be a reporting company
and will comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.
(3) The
public may read and copy any materials the Company files with the SEC in the
SEC's Public Reference Section, Room 1580, 100 F Street N.E., Washington, D.C.
20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public
Reference Section by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Additionally, the SEC
maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information
statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically
with the SEC, which can be found at
http://www.sec.gov
.

Overview
Mizati
Luxury Allow Wheels, Inc. was founded in calendar year 2001. We are a
designer, importer and wholesaler of custom luxury alloy wheels. The
Company operates in the $11 billion wheels, tires, and suspension segment of the
Specialty Automotive Equipment market. The Company's products are
currently sold through a national and international distribution network
utilizing a variety of sales channels including the internet, automotive
catalogs, and wheel and tire distributors. We have diversified our product
portfolio into three different wheel lines which allows us to offer exclusivity
to certain distributors upon their request.
Organic
sales have been the key driver of the company’s growth. The Company’s
organic growth strategy has been to target distributors and wheel retailers in
an effort to establish a national distribution network. Mizati’s mission
is to be the premier brand and designated source for affordable luxury wheels in
the United States within the next three to five years while also penetrating
international markets.
For the
purpose of better liquidity for the Company’s common shares, the Company’s Board
of Directors approved an increase of its number of authorized common shares from
5,000 to 200,000,000 in February 2006 and changed the par value per share from
$80.00 to $0.0001, immediately followed by a 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split.
A certificate of amended articles of incorporation was filed with the
California Secretary of State stating the increased number of authorized common
shares.
In June
2008, under the advice of the Company’s former securities legal counsel, given
that the Company did not state the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the
aforementioned amended articles of incorporation filed with the California
Secretary of State in February 2006, the Company should mitigate such seemingly
administrative oversight by conducting a reverse stock-split to eliminate the
effect of the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split, immediately followed by a
forward stock-split and corresponding corporate filings with the California
Secretary of State stating these two splits, the result of which should not to
affect shareholder stake or stock value. It was believed that these two
splits should complete the mitigation of the seemingly administrative oversight
as stated above.
Therefore,
on June 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10,000
reverse stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of
record at the close of business on June 30, 2008 received one (1) share of
common stock for every ten thousand (10,000) shares held. The Company
issued shares in order to round up fractional shares resulting from the reverse
split to the next higher whole number of shares. Any such issuance did not
constitute a sale pursuant to Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
On July
24, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 9,840.546697 for 1 forward
stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of record at
the close of business on July 24, 2008 received 9,840.546697 shares of common
stock for every one (1) share held.
The
cumulative effect of those two stock-splits was a 1 for 0.9841 reverse split for
the Company’s common stocks. The purpose of these two stock-splits was
intended to mitigate the seemingly administrative oversight as mentioned
previously, but not to change the shareholder stake or stock
value.
Management
was subsequently advised otherwise that stating the 30,000 for 1 forward
stock-split in the amended articles of incorporation was not a requirement in
the State of California, thus such omission in the corporate filing did not
affect the legitimacy and effectiveness of the 30,000 for 1 stock-split executed
in February 2006 given that it was appropriately approved by the Company’s Board
of Directors.
On
June 11, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 40 reverse
stock-split for its common stocks as deemed for the best interests of the
Company. The total number of common shares outstanding will be 1,547,162
shares after the effectiveness of the reverse split. As of the filing date
of this Amendment of the Registration Statement on Form 10, the Company is in
the process of obtaining approval from the NASD for the reverse split.
Therefore, the numbers of shares presented in this filing have not
reflected such effect.
Critical
Accounting Policies
A summary
of significant accounting policies is included in Note 4 to the audited
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. Management believes
that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to
provide useful and reliable financial information about our Company's operating
results and financial condition.
Inventories
Inventories
are comprised of finished goods held for sale. We record inventories at
the lower of cost or market value, with cost generally determined on a
moving-average basis. We establish inventory reserves for estimated
obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference
between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based upon
assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand
and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
additional inventory reserves could be required.
Long Lived
Assets
We
account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets which consist
primarily of intangible assets with finite lives and property and equipment in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 144(ASC 360),
Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
We periodically review the recoverability
of the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the
forecasted future undiscounted net cash flows from operations to which the
assets relate, based on our best estimates using the appropriate assumptions and
projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the assets. If the
carrying value is determined not to be recoverable from future operating
cashflows, the assets are deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized
equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair
value of the assets. Based upon management’s assessment, there was no
impairment as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Management
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Results
of Operations for the three months Ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three
months Ended March 31, 2009:
We
present the table below to show how the operating results have changed for the
three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. Next to each period’s results of
operations, we provide the relevant percentage of total revenues for comparing
the relative change in revenues and expenses.

Comparison
of the three months Ended March 31, 2010 and 2009
Sales.
Sales decreased $143,567 or 57% to $109,704 in the
three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $253,271 for the three months
ended March 31, 2009. The decrease in sales is primarily attributable to a
significant decrease in sales volume triggered by a sustained cyclical downturn
in the U.S. market. Demand for aftermarket wheels has slowed as consumers’
purchasing power has weakened. In addition, we were undergoing huge price
pressure from our competitors since 2009, which had adverse impact on our sales
price. Approximately $138 thousand of the total decrease in sales was
attributable to price reduction in the first quarter of 2010 as compared to the
same quarter prior year, and $5 thousand of the total decrease in sales was
attributable to decline in sales volume.
Gross Profit.
As a percentage of revenue, gross margin
decreased to 2% in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to 28%
during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease of gross margin
was mainly caused by the further price cut of our products in order to compete
with our rivals as well as clearing out our slow-moving items at more than 30%
below cost.
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
("SG&A") consist principally of professional services, rent expenses,
salaries and wages, and other general corporate activities. The amount
decreased by $81,146 or 41% from $199,313 for the first quarter of 2009 to
$118,167 for the first quarter of 2010. As a percentage of sales, our
SG&A increased to 108% for the first quarter of 2010, compared to 79% for
the same quarter prior year. The decrease in the balance of SG&A was
primarily due to the following:
|
(1)
|
Decrease of $69,669 in rent
expense from $91,253 for the first quarter of 2009 to $21,584 for the
first quarter of 2010, or a 76% decrease. In March 2009,
corresponding to the Company’s cash flow management strategy and the
expectation of lower demand for warehouse space, the Company terminated
the prior lease contract for approximately 33,400 square feet of office
and warehouse space, and moved to the current location which occupies
8,460 square feet of total space. Monthly rent expense was reduced
from $28,232 per month to $6,430 per month accordingly, resulting in the
decrease in rent expense.
|
|
(2)
|
Decrease of $16,489 in
professional services from $53,183 for the first quarter of 2009 to
$36,694 for the first quarter of 2010, or a 31% decrease. Such
decrease was mainly due to decrease in legal fees by $10,530 and decrease
in other professional service fees by $11,258, respectively as part of the
Company’s cost reduction
strategy.
|
|
(3)
|
Decrease
of $22,849 in “others” from $41,561 for the first quarter of 2009 to
$18,712 for the first quarter of 2010, a 55% decrease. The decrease
was primarily attributable to the Company’s cost reduction strategy,
resulting in decreases in temporary labor expense by $9,177, shipping and
handling charges by $4,748, product liability insurance premium by $2,952,
and meals and entertainment by $2,260 from the first quarter of 2009 to
the same period of 2010.
|
The above
decreases were partially offset by increase in salary and wages by $27,396 from
$13,316 in the first quarter of 2009 to $40,712 in the same quarter of 2010.
The increase was mainly because the base monthly salary for the Company’s
CEO had been adjusted to $10,000 per month as determined during the fourth
quarter of 2009, which was still within the limit of the maximum of $240,000 per
year as orally agreed upon between the Company and the CEO since March 1, 2006,
even though she agreed to defer the payment of salary.
Other Operating Income.
The Company recorded other operating income of $44,618
during the first quarter of 2010, resulting from the recovery of reserve for
inventory valuation due to sales of inventory items previously identified and
reserved for slow-moving and obsolete. The sales were a result of reducing
the average sales price per unit to more than 30% below cost as mentioned
above.
Loss from Operations.
Loss from operations decreased $55,822 or 44%, to
($71,455) for the first quarter of 2010 compared to ($127,277) for the same
quarter prior year. As a percentage of sales, loss from operations
increased to 65% for the first quarter of 2010, as compared to 50% for the same
quarter prior year. The increase in loss from operations was primarily due
to the decrease in sales, partially offset by the decrease in SG&A and
increase in other operating income as discussed above.

The
Company’s net cash used in operating activities was adversely affected by net
loss of ($93,358) in the first quarter of 2010 and ($148,908) in the first
quarter of 2009. The significant decrease in accounts payable for the
first quarter of 2009 in the amount of $151,896 signaled further cash outflows.
Those effects were partially offset by decrease in inventory of $32,733
and $173,644 for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, due to sales
activities prevailing inventory purchasing activities. As a result,
$25,037 of net cash was used in operating activities during the first quarter of
2010 while $104,562 for the same quarter prior year.
Additionally,
we had a working capital deficit of $2,432,487 as of March 31, 2010 compared to
$2,335,140 as of March 31, 2009. In order to sustain the cash flow needs,
we entered into agreements to obtain external sources of liquidity. In
March 2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement
with Citibank. The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to
$90,000. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable
monthly at approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum until March 2008. The line
of credit was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual basis. The
Company had an unpaid principal balance of $90,000 at March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009. In April 2007, the Company entered into a revolving
credit agreement with East West Bank. The credit agreement provides for
borrowings up to $1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts receivable
balance plus 25% of inventory balance as collateral, as well as maintaining an
effective tangible net worth of not less than $300,000 and a current ratio of
not less than 1.0 to 1. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest
is payable monthly at 8.00% per annum until April 2008. At the end of
April 2008, the Company and East West Bank entered into a business loan
agreement to mature in August 2010 to pay off the remaining balance of the line
of credit. The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the
Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0 percentage point. On February 18,
2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,000
of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 11 consecutive months
starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest
each month for 7 consecutive months starting January 15, 2010, and $253,553 on
August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment. Total unpaid
principal balance of the business loan and the line of credit at March 31, 2010
and December 31, 2009 was $262,019 and $266,019, respectively. The
business loan had a personal guaranty provided by the President & Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and was collateralized by the Company’s
inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general tangibles, as well as
a property jointly owned by the President & Chief Executive Officer and the
Secretary of the Company. In February 2008, the Company entered into a
revolving credit agreement with a Bank of America. The credit agreement
provides for borrowings up to $92,500. The adjusted interest rate is a
rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage
points. Total principal owed at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was
$92,000. This credit line is not subject to covenants that may restrict
the availability of the funds.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that
the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not
demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to
satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations.
The
Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities
or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements. We anticipate that any
proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for
general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase
inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital. The largest shareholder
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide
financing to the company should it require additional funds.
The
Company may require additional funds and may seek to raise such funds though
public and private financings or from other sources. There is no assurance that
additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such
financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to the Company or that any
additional financing will not be dilutive. The accompanying financial statements
have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business for a reasonable period of time. As of March 31, 2010,
the conditions discussed above have created uncertainty about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
The
Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal
financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has
sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next
twelve months. Management is taking actions to address the company's financial
condition and deteriorating liquidity position. These steps include
adjusting the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management believes
is a sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient
vehicles. Specifically, the company has facilitated new designs for
smaller size wheels in the 17” range to fit smaller cars. Management
believes that by expanding into this market, it can capitalize on consumer
demand and drive revenue growth. In an effort to mitigate freight charges,
Mizati is speaking to distributors in markets outside of California about the
possibility of shipping products directly from the manufacturers to their
warehouse. This would reduce our freight charges on long distance shipping
orders and allow the company to offer more competitive pricing. Management
believes that this can be a key driver of expansion into new markets and
revenues.

Comparison
of the years Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
Sales.
Sales decreased $1,829,926 or 75% to $601,618 in the
year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $2,431,544 for the year ended December
31, 2008. The decrease in sales is primarily attributable to a significant
decrease in sales volume triggered by a sustained cyclical downturn in the
economy. Demand for aftermarket wheels has slowed as consumers’ purchasing
power has weakened. In addition, we were undergoing huge price pressure
from our competitors in the year of 2009, which had adverse impact on our sales
price. Approximately $0.2 million of the total decrease in sales was
attributable to price reduction in 2009, and $1.6 million of the total decrease
in sales was attributable to decline in sales volume.
Gross Profit.
As a percentage of revenue, gross margin
decreased to 7% in the year of 2009 as compared to 23% during the year of 2008.
The decrease of gross margin was mainly caused by the further price cut of our
products in order to compete with our rivals as well as clearing out our
slow-moving items at 30% below cost. The additional reserve in the amount
of $23,818 on inventory slow-moving and obsolete items for the year ended
December 31, 2009 also caused the decrease in gross margin. The additional
inventory reserve was a result of more product types aging in our inventory for
approximately a year with none or limited sales activities.
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
("SG&A") consist principally of professional services, rent expenses, loss
on sale of land and building held for sale, and other general corporate
activities. The amount decreased by $630,533 or 42% from $1,514,371 for
the year of 2008 to $883,838 for the year of 2009. As a percentage of
sales, our SG&A increased to 147% for the year of 2009, compared to 62% for
the prior year. The decrease in the balance of SG&A was primarily due
to the following:
|
(1)
|
The Company incurred a loss on
sale of building for $160,505 in 2008 as compared to $0 in 2009. In
June and September 2008, the Company sold the two buildings and its
corresponding land owned by the Company with net book value of $2,530,661
at a total price of $2,670,000, resulting in net proceeds of $2,370,156
after closing costs and incurred a loss of $160,505 on the
sale.
|
|
(2)
|
Decrease of $129,346 in
professional services from $449,412 for the year of 2008 to $320,066 for
the year of 2009, or a 29% decrease. Such decrease was mainly due to
significantly reduced investor relation service fees and legal fees in
2009 as part of the Company’s cost reduction
strategy.
|
|
(3)
|
Decrease of $175,998 in rent
expense from $317,378 for the year of 2008 to $141,380 for the year of
2009, or a 55% decrease. In March 2009, corresponding to the
Company’s cash flow management strategy and the expectation of lower
demand for warehouse space, the Company terminated the prior lease
contract for approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse
space, and moved to the current location which occupies 8,460 square feet
of total space. Monthly rent expense was reduced from $28,232 per
month to $6,430 per month accordingly. On February 18, 2009, Mission
BP, LLC, the landlord of the old location, filed a complaint against the
Company for unlawful detainer, and was settled by forfeiting the security
deposit of $56,464 to Mission BP, LLC which was recorded as “Rent
expenses” on the statement of operations in 2009. On June 3, 2009,
Mission BP, LLC filed another complaint against the Company for alleged
damage for breach of lease, and was settled at $29,000 with $12,000
payable in 2010 and the remaining due in 2011 and 2012 (see Note 15).
The Company recorded the $29,000 as “Rent expenses accrued for
litigation settlement” on the statement of operations in
2009.
|
|
(4)
|
Decrease
of $231,926 in “others” from $406,950 for the year of 2008 to $175,024 for
the year of 2009, a 57% decrease. The decrease was primarily
attributable to the Company’s cost reduction strategy, resulting in
decreases in show expenses by $39,965 from $42,334 in 2008 to $2,369 in
2009; advertising expenses by $61,004 from $62,244 in 2008 to $1,240 in
2009; credit card expenses by $23,963 from $28,263 in 2008 to $4,300 in
2009;.property taxes from $15,146 in 2008 to $0 in 2009; utilities by
$11,312 from $16,218 in 2008 to $4,906 in 2009; other office expense by
$9,668 from $9,851 in 2008 to $183 in 2009; and other expenses from
$72,980 in 2008 to $0 in 2009 mainly due to write-off of $26,500
subscription receivable in 2008 and reduction in other miscellaneous
operating expenses.
|
The
above decreases were partially offset by increase in bad debt expense by $33,711
from $20,590 in 2008 to $54,301 in 2009. As a result of the economy
downturn continued in the U.S. during the year 2009, the Company observed longer
aging in its accounts receivables and increase in customer account balances with
payment difficulties. The Company is considering making adjustments to its
current credit policies weighing between sales volume and trouble
accounts.
For
the year 2009, the Company also recorded $29,000 rent expense accrued for
litigation settlement with BP LLC on the 2
nd
litigation with BP LLC that the Company was sued for breaching the lease
agreement, and $12,000 marketing expense accrued for litigation settlement with
KXOL for unpaid invoice for commercial advertisement performed by KXOL (see Note
15).
Loss from Operations.
Loss from operations decreased $104,656 or 11%, to
($839,524) for the year of 2009 compared to ($944,180) for the prior year.
As a percentage of sales, loss from operations increased to 140% for the
year of 2009, as compared to 39% for the prior year. The increase in loss
from operations was primarily due to the decrease in sales, partially offset by
the decrease in SG&A as discussed above.
Net Other Expense.
Net other expense decreased $217,421 or 71%, to $88,732
for the year of 2009 compared to $306,153 for the prior year. The decrease
in net other expense was primarily due to the decrease in interest expense after
paying off mortgages and certain loan balances.

The
Company’s net cash used in operating activities was adversely affected by net
loss of ($929,056) in the year of 2009 and ($1,250,333) in the year of 2008.
The significant decrease in our sales also resulted in decline in our
accounts receivable balance comparing the year of 2009 to the prior year.
As a result, $43,772 of net cash was used in operating activities during
the year of 2009 as compared to $270,001 for the prior year.
Additionally,
we had a working capital deficit of $2,335,140 as of December 31, 2009 compared
to $1,734,756 as of December 31, 2008. As we expand our distributor base,
we believe that our cash requirements will increase. In order to sustain these
needs, we entered into agreements to obtain external sources of liquidity.
In March 2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit
agreement with Citibank. The credit agreement provides for borrowings of
up to $90,000. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is
payable monthly at approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum until March 2008.
The line of credit was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual
basis. The Company had an unpaid principal balance of $90,000 at December
31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. In April 2007, the Company entered into a
revolving credit agreement with East West Bank. The credit agreement
provides for borrowings up to $1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts
receivable balance plus 25% of inventory balance as collateral, as well as
maintaining an effective tangible net worth of not less than $300,000 and a
current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1. Under the terms of the credit
agreement, interest is payable monthly at 8.00% per annum until April 2008.
At the end of April 2008, the Company and East West Bank entered into a
business loan agreement to mature in August 2010 to pay off the remaining
balance of the line of credit. The adjustable interest rate is a rate per
annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0 percentage point.
On February 18, 2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing that the
Company will repay $1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month
for 11 consecutive months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of principal plus
accrued unpaid interest each month for 7 consecutive months starting January 15,
2010, and $253,553 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment.
Total unpaid principal balance of the business loan and the line of credit
at December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $266,019 and $278,019, respectively. The
business loan had a personal guaranty provided by the President & Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and was collateralized by the Company’s
inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general tangibles, as well as
a property jointly owned by the President & Chief Executive Officer and the
Secretary of the Company. In February 2008, the Company entered into a
revolving credit agreement with a Bank of America. The credit agreement
provides for borrowings up to $92,500. The adjusted interest rate is a rate per
annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage points.
Total principal owed at December 31, 2009 was $92,000. This credit line is
not subject to covenants that may restrict the availability of the
funds.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that
the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not
demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to
satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations.
The
Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities
or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements. We anticipate that any
proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for
general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase
inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital. The largest shareholder
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide
financing to the company should it require additional funds.
The
Company may require additional funds and may seek to raise such funds though
public and private financings or from other sources. There is no assurance that
additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such
financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to the Company or that any
additional financing will not be dilutive. The accompanying financial statements
have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business for a reasonable period of time. As of December 31,
2009, the conditions discussed above have created uncertainty about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The
Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal
financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has
sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next
twelve months. Management is taking actions to address the company's financial
condition and deteriorating liquidity position. These steps include
adjusting the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management believes
is a sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient
vehicles. Specifically, the company has facilitated new designs for
smaller size wheels in the 17” range to fit smaller cars. Management
believes that by expanding into this market, it can capitalize on consumer
demand and drive revenue growth. In an effort to mitigate freight charges,
Mizati is speaking to distributors in markets outside of California about the
possibility of shipping products directly from the manufacturers to their
warehouse. This would reduce our freight charges on long distance shipping
orders and allow the company to offer more competitive pricing. Management
believes that this can be a key driver of expansion into new markets and
revenues.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We have
no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Material
Commitments
In
January 2008, we entered into a lease contract with Mission BP, LLC, under which
we will lease approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse space
located in Pomona, California. The lease contract provided a term of
60 months, commencing in March 2008 and ending February 2013. Rental
obligations will be payable on a monthly basis. In March, 2009, the
Company terminated the lease and entered into settlement with Mission BP, LLC.
Two litigations were filed by Mission BP, LLC after the termination as
stated in Note 15 of the financial statements for December 31,
2009.
Immediately
after terminating the lease with Mission BP, LLC, in March 2009, the Company
assumed a three-month sublease from Zonet USA Corporation for 8,460 square feet
of office and warehouse space located in Walnut, California. The sublease
contract commenced in April 2009 and ended in June 2009. As required and
in conjunction with the sublease, the Company entered into a lease agreement
with Bayport Harrison Associates, LP for the same location commencing July 2009
and ending September 2012. Such change corresponds to the Company’s cash
flow management strategy, which will better preserve spending in operating
expenses and increase available capital in inventory purchase, marketing, and
other revenue-generating activities.
Future
minimum lease payments due subsequent to March 31, 2010 under all non-cancelable
operating leases for the next five years are as follows:

We
maintain our current principal office at 19929 Harrison Ave., Walnut, CA 91789.
Our telephone number at this office is (909) 839-5118. Our current space
consists of approximately 8,460 square feet of office and warehouse space that

moving to our previous office location in Pomona, California, the Company owned
a facility in Walnut, California including land and two buildings which were
elected to be held for sale in early 2008. In February 2008, the Company
relocated its principal office from Walnut, California to Pomona, California.
In June and September 2008, the Company sold the two buildings and its
corresponding land with net carrying value of $2,530,661 for $2,670,000
(resulting in net proceeds of $2,370,156 after closing costs) and incurred a
loss of ($160,505) on the sale.

7. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Since
March 1, 2006, Hazel Chu, our Chief Executive Officer of Mizati has had an oral
employment contract with the Company which provided for a salary of up to
$240,000 per year. Based on the financial condition of the Company, Ms. Chu
agrees to receive smaller portion of the salary; therefore, Ms. Chu was paid
$9,800 in 2009 and $34,615 in 2008, with $110,200 and $0 recorded as accrued
expense as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Ms. Chu will
continue to adjust her annual salary based on the Company’s operation results
without harming its cash flows.
On
January 13, 2006, January 18, 2006, and January 18, 2008, Company’s President
and Chief Executive Officer loaned the Company $300,000, $123,300, $60,000,
respectively, in exchange for promissory notes for a period of ten (10) years,
bearing interest at various floating interest rates from 0% to 10% per annum.
The Company recorded interest expense of $3,737 and $7,125 on these notes
for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The total unpaid
principal balance was $382,601 as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009,
respectively.
In
February 2009, the President and CEO of the Company verbally assigned $100,000
of the debt owed to her by the Company, to Mr. Hsun-Ching Chuang, the major
shareholder of Max Fung Trading Co., Ltd. for repaying a personal loan she was
obligated to Mr. Chuang. Mr. Chuang agreed to accept the Company’s common
shares in repaying such debt. Mr. Chuang was a non-related party prior to
accepting the shares in payment of the loan. On February 11, 2009, the
Company issued 5,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value
on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $100,000 to
Mr. Chuang. The balance of loan from the President and CEO of the Company
was reduced by $100,000 accordingly.
On July
09, 2008, 24,847,380 shares were issued to Ms. Chu at $0.000004 per share in the
period between the two stock-splits (or 2,525 shares at $0.04 per share prior to
the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008), which was the fair market value on
the date of issuance. The total value of such shares was $99.39.
These shares were issued to compensate Ms. Chu for her services provided
to the Company.
On
July 30, 2009, due to an administrative error in 3,572 shares initially intended
to be issued to our original thirteen shareholders for professional and
administrative services previously provided to the Company, which turned into
35,150,433 shares due to a 9840.546697 for 1 forward stock-split that mistakenly
occurred earlier than scheduled (see Note 12). Our President & CEO
cancelled and returned 21,866,527 shares to the Company on July 30, 2009 and
additional 2,552,698 shares on May 11, 2010 with no consideration being
exchanged.
ITEM
8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On
February 2, 2009, Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. aka Spanish Broadcasting
Systems, Inc. dba KXOL adba KXOL Latino 96.3 FM (the “Plaintiff”), filed a
complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Beverley Hills Courthouse
for reasonable value, account stated, and open book account for commercial
advertisement performed by KXOL, seeking damages of $12,200, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from October 28, 2007.
The Company disputed Plaintiff’s entitlement to amounts claimed and
instructed the Company’s legal counsel to contest the action, while concurrently
pursuing opportunities for reasonable settlement. On March 17, 2009,
judgment was entered against the Company. The Company settled the judgment
for the principal amount of $12,000, with the Plaintiff waiving its claims for
attorney’s fees, interest and costs. The $12,000 was recorded as other
payable on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and
“Marketing expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
On
February 20, 2009, Dare Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (the “Plaintiff”), one of
the Company’s major vendors in China, filed a complaint in the Los Angeles
County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for open book account, account stated,
and goods, wares and merchandise, seeking damages of $716,900, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from March 10, 2008. On
April 15, 2009, defendant removed the state court action to the United States
District Court for the Central District of California. On December 14,
2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California
issued a dismissal without prejudice. The dismissal without prejudice was
granted by the court to allow the Plaintiff to proceed with the action in a
proper forum. It is highly uncertain regarding whether the plaintiff would
choose to pursue this claim in another forum. As of December 31, 2009, the
$716,900 was equivalent to the accounts payable owed to the Plaintiff as
recorded on the balance sheet, and was already recorded in inventory cost which
therefore did not impact the statement of operations for the year then
ended.
On
February 18, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the
Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for unlawful detainer, for
base rent of $25,725.70, additional rent of $4,027.14, holdover damages of
$991.76 per day, and for attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company disputed
Plaintiff’s right to unlawful detainer on the grounds that it had billed for and
collected additional rent in violation of the terms of the lease. The case
went to trial on March 25, 2009, at which time the Company entered into
settlement with Plaintiff as follows:
|
1.
|
The Company stipulated to
restitution of the premises to Plaintiff on or before April 3,
2009.
|
|
2.
|
The Company agreed to waive
any rights to its security deposit of $56,463.70, and Plaintiff agreed to
apply such security deposit to unpaid rent and holdover damages incurred
by Plaintiff in the action. The $56,463.70 security deposit
forfeited was charged through rent expense for the year ended December 31,
2009 accordingly.
|
|
3.
|
The parties agreed that the
settlement was without prejudice to other claims either party may have
relating to the tenancy.
|
The
settlement was a favorable resolution for the Company as it allowed it to apply
its security deposit to rent due, and to relocate and replace an above-market
lease with a substantially more economical lease.
On
June 3, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los
Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for alleged damage for breach
of lease in the amount of $41,038, and for attorney’s fees and costs according
to proof. This case is subject to a conditional settlement that calls for
a dismissal of the case no later than May 15, 2012. The total value of the
settlement is $29,000. An initial payment of $2,000 is due on February 28,
2010. The settlement calls for the remainder to be paid in increments of
no less than $1,000 due at the end of each month for twenty-three (23)
consecutive months, starting on March 31, 2010 and concluding February 28, 2012.
Additionally, there is a $4,000 balloon payment due March 31, 2012 upon
the conclusion of payments on February 28, 2012. This balloon payment will
be discounted if the final payment is made prior to February 28, 2011. The
discount shall be $200 for number of months between the early final payment date
and the date of February 2012 and the adjusted payment shall be paid the month
following the actual final payment date. In the event of default on a
payment by more than 3 days, the Company shall be liable for $41,038 less
previous payments and subject to the maximum rate of interest allowed by law.
The $29,000 was recorded as “Rent expense accrued for litigation
settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009,
and other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, with $12,000 due
within one year recorded under current liabilities and $17,000 due over one year
recorded under long-term liabilities. As of March 31, 2010, $12,000 due
within one year was recorded in Other Payable under current liabilities and
$14,000 due over one year was recorded under long-term
liabilities.
Other
than stated above, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the
Registrant is a party or as to which any of its property is subject, and no such
proceedings are known to the Registrant to be threatened or contemplated against
it.

10. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
886
founders’ shares were issued to company President and CEO, Hazel Chu, on January
29, 2001 at $0.001 per share (or 900 shares at $0.001 prior to the reverse
stock-split on June 30, 2008). On July 9, 2008, an additional 24,847,380 shares
were issued to Ms. Chu at $0.000004 per share in the period between the two
stock-splits (or 2,525 shares at $0.04 per share prior to the forward
stock-split on July 24, 2008), which was fair market value on the date of
issuance. These shares were issued to compensate Ms. Chu for her services
provided to the Company.
On March
14, 2006, Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. effected a limited private offering
of securities to seven purchasers. The Company sold 519,089 shares of Common
Stock to those purchasers at a purchase price of $0.20324 per share (or 527,500
shares at $0.20 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) for
a total of $105,500. Additionally, on March 14, 2006, Mizati Luxury Alloy
Wheels, Inc. issued 159,909 shares of Common Stock at $0.20324 per share for an
aggregate amount of $32,500 (or 162,500 shares at $0.20 per share prior to the
reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) to nine individuals, in exchange for full
recourse promissory notes. Each loan has an interest rate of 8% per annum and a
three year pay-off period.
In
December 2007, the Company issued 492,027 shares (or 500,000 shares prior to the
reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) of common stock to a consultant, Aware
Capital Consultants, for consulting agreement entered into December 2007. These
services include prospecting for future financing, viral marketing, and
networking. All shares were valued at $0.20324 per share (or $0.20 per share
prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008), the selling price of the
Company’s common stock in the most recent private placement. The aggregate value
of the shares was $100,000 and charged to professional expenses when the shares
were issued.
On July
24, 2008, the Company issued 35,150,433 common shares at $0.000004 per share
which occurred in the period between the two stock-splits (or 3,572 shares at
$0.039 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008) to the
thirteen original shareholders for professional and administrative services
previously provided to the Company, including 24,847,380 common shares (or 2,525
shares prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008, or 25,250,000 shares
prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) to our President and CEO
Hazel Chu for $99.39.
In
February 2008, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for designing five to eight sets of new wheels
from which the Company selected two final sets for molding. The designs and
molding should be completed prior to October 2008. Compensation for these
services was agreed at $60,000 that shall be paid in cash or the Company’s
common shares upon completion of work. On or around October 27, 2008, the new
designs and molding of wheels were completed. On October 27, 2008, the Company
issued 1,920,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the
date the works were completed (the measurement date), or a total value of
$38,400 to compensate the vendor. Such amount was recorded through professional
expense, and the remaining $21,600 was recorded as accrued expense. On February
5, 2009, the Company issued 1,080,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the same
fair market value as on the date the works were completed, or a total value of
$21,600 to compensate the vendor and payoff the remaining balance.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two
individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August
2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although
molding is not included in the service for this time. Compensation for such
designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the
Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. Those two individuals
are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056% and 0.00053%
of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such agreement. On
February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 4,800,000 common shares, with
one received 2,500,000 shares and the other received 2,300,000 shares, at $0.02
per share, the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date),
or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into the agreement. Although there
were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the
agreement, the equity award granted to the two individuals performing the
services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered
into the contract. The $96,000 was recorded as a prepayment which will be
expensed upon the completion of works. Immediately after the share issuances,
the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common shares,
respectively.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for searching and identifying at least five new
wheel manufacturers for the Company during the period from March 2009 to
December 2009. Compensation for such service was agreed at $40,000 which shall
be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. On
February 11, 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per
share, the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or
a total value of $40,000 upon entering into the agreement. Although there were
no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the
service agreement, the equity award granted to the party performing the services
was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered into the
contract. The $40,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense and the total
amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31,
2009.
In
February 2009, the President and CEO of the Company verbally assigned $100,000
of the debt owed to her by the Company, to Mr. Hsun-Ching Chuang, the major
shareholder of Max Fung Trading Co., Ltd. for repaying a personal loan she was
obligated to Mr. Chuang. Mr. Chuang agreed to accept the Company’s common shares
in repaying such debt. Mr. Chuang was a non-related party prior to accepting the
shares in payment of the loan. On February 11, 2009, the Company issued
5,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the date of
issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $100,000 to Mr. Chuang. The
balance of loan from the President and CEO of the Company was reduced by
$100,000 accordingly.
Also
in February 2009, the Company entered into a written service agreement with Mr.
Chuang for services of searching new investors and funding resources for the
Company during the period from March 2009 to March 2012. Compensation for such
service was agreed at $100,000 which shall be paid in the Company’s common
shares upon entering into the agreement. Both parties agreed that the shares
issued should be returned to the Company without recourse for nonperformance of
the services. On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares at $0.02
per share, the fair market value on the date of performance commitment, upon
entering into the agreement. As agreed, 2,000,000 shares should be returned to
the Company if the amount of new funding through such service is less than
$150,000 by the end of the service period, whereas all 5,000,000 shares should
be returned to the Company if less than $120,000. Immediately after the above
two share issuances, Mr. Chuang owned 11.59% of the Company’s common shares. The
$100,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense, of which $8,333 and $30,556
was expensed during the first quarter of 2010 and the year ended December 31,
2009, leaving the remaining $61,111 and $69,444 recorded in the prepayment as of
March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
These
shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). These shares of our common stock
qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since
the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was
not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial
number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the
offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which
we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, the
shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2)
since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating
that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act.
This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately
redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.”
Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to
qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this
transaction.
ITEM
11. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
(a)
Common and Preferred Stock
The
Company is authorized by its Articles of Incorporation to issue an aggregate of
205,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 200,000,000 are shares of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") and 5,000,000 are shares
of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). As of
March 19, 2010, 64,435,473 shares of Common Stock and zero shares of Preferred
Stock were issued and outstanding, respectively.
(1)
Common Stock
All
outstanding shares of Common Stock are of the same class and have equal rights
and attributes. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share
on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. All
shareholders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be
declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Common Stock are entitled
to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities. The
shareholders do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.
(2)
Preferred Stock
Our
Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of Preferred Stock with
designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by our Board
of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without
stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation,
conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting
power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock.
ITEM
12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section
317 of the California Corporations Code provides that a corporation may
indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals
against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in
the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith
and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was
unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions,
except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys' fees
incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions and the
statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where
the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The
statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be
granted by a corporation's articles of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, and a
vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
The
California Corporations code permits a corporation to provide in its articles of
incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable
to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:
|
·
|
Any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders;
|
|
·
|
Acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law;
|
|
·
|
Payments of unlawful dividends or
unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions;
or
|
|
·
|
Any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal
benefit.
|
Our
bylaws provide for the maximum indemnification of our officers and directors
permitted under California law.

MIZATI
LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Mizati
Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc (referred to herein as the Company, we, our or us) was
organized under the laws of the State of California in calendar year 2001.
The Company is a designer, importer and wholesaler of custom alloy wheels
for passenger cars, sport utility vehicles, and light trucks. The Company
currently markets and distributes three separate and unique brands of luxury
wheels, Mizati®, Hero(TM), and Zati(TM) through a network of 307
distributors.
NOTE
2 – GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will
continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and
the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not
demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to
satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations. The Company had
accumulated deficit of $(3,581,824) and $(3,488,466) as of March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, including net losses of $(93,358) and $(148,908) for the
three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In addition,
current liabilities exceeded current assets by $2,432,487 and $2,335,140 at
March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. These factors indicate
that the Company may not be able to continue its business in the future.
The Company finances its operations by short term and long term bank
borrowings with more reliance on the use of short-term borrowings as the
corresponding borrowing costs are lower compared to long-term borrowings.
There can be no assurance that such borrowings will be available to the
company in the future.
In March
2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement with
Citibank. The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $90,000.
Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at
approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum until March 2008. The line of credit
was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual basis. The Company
had an unpaid principal balance of $90,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31,
2009. In April 2007, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement
with East West Bank. The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to
$1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts receivable balance plus 25%
of inventory balance as collateral, as well as maintaining an effective tangible
net worth of not less than $300,000 and a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to
1. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at
8.00% per annum until April 2008. At the end of April 2008, the Company
and East West Bank entered into a business loan agreement to mature in August
2010 to pay off the remaining balance of the previous line of credit, with extra
proceeds of $40,000 upon execution of the loan agreement. The adjustable
interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate
plus 1.0 percentage point. On February 18, 2009, the agreement was revised
to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid
interest each month for 11 consecutive months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000
of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 7 consecutive months
starting January 15, 2010, and $253,533 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and
interest payment. On February 17, 2010, the term was revised to agreeing that
Company will repay $1,500 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month
for 7 consecutive months starting February 15, 2010 and $254,195 on August 31,
2010 as one principal and interest payment. Total unpaid principal balance of
the business loan and the line of credit at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009
was $262,019 and $266,019, respectively. In February 2008, the Company
entered into a revolving credit agreement with Bank of America. The credit
agreement provides for borrowings up to $92,500. The adjustable interest
rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5
percentage points. Total unpaid principal balance at March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009 was $92,000. This credit line is not subject to
covenants that may restrict the availability of the funds. In March 2006, the
Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement with Citibank.
The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $90,000. Under
the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at annual rate of
the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time plus
3%. The Company had an unpaid principal balance of $90,000 at March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009. The line of credit was unsecured, and renews
automatically on an annual basis.
The
Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities
or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements. We anticipate that any
proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for
general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase
inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital. The largest shareholder
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide
financing to the company should it require additional funds.
The
Company may require additional funds and may seek to raise such funds though
public and private financings or from other sources. There is no assurance
that additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such
financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to the Company or that any
additional financing will not be dilutive.
The
Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal
financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has
sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next
twelve months. Management is taking actions to address the company's
financial condition and deteriorating liquidity position. These steps
include adjusting the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management
believes is a sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel
efficient vehicles. Specifically, the company plans to develop a smaller
sized wheel in the 17” range to fit smaller cars. Management believes that
by expanding into this market, it can capitalize on consumer demand and drive
revenue growth. In an effort to mitigate freight charges, the Company is
speaking to distributors in markets outside of California about the possibility
of shipping products directly from the manufacturers to their warehouse.
This would reduce our freight charges on long distance shipping orders and
allow the company to offer more competitive pricing. Management believes
that this can be a key driver of expansion into new markets and
revenues.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results for any future period. These
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
The results of the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year
ending December 31, 2010.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include unrestricted deposits and short-term investments with
an original maturity of three months or less.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable and other receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting
of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed.
We assess the collectability of our accounts receivable based primarily
upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and
analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history. Management reviews
the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts,
customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and
changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these
reserves.
Inventories
Inventories
are comprised of finished goods held for sale. We record inventories at
the lower of cost or market value, with cost generally determined on a
moving-average basis. We establish inventory reserves for estimated
obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference
between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based upon
assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand
and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
additional inventory reserves could be required.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of three to
thirty-nine years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the lesser of the remaining term of the lease or the estimated useful
life of the asset. Significant improvements are capitalized and
expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred.
Reclassifications
Certain
comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current period's presentation.
Revenue
Recognition
We
recognize product revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii)
our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the
resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. We recognize revenue
for product sales upon transfer of title to the customer. Customer
purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence
of an arrangement. Shipping documents and the completion of any customer
acceptance requirements, when applicable, are used to verify product delivery or
that services have been rendered. We assess whether a price is fixed or
determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and
whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. We record reductions
to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same
period that the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on
historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known
at the time. Historically these amounts have not been material.
Management
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial assets and
liabilities measured at fair value
Effective
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 157(ASC 820) Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair
value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are
recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance applies to
other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.
On February 12, 2008, the FASB finalized FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157(ASC 820). This Staff Position delays
the effective date of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) for nonfinancial assets and
liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim
periods within those fiscal years, except for those items that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at
least annually). The adoption of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) had no effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
Share-Based
Payments
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which
replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R)
is now included in ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Under SFAS
No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of
share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and
recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which
employees or independent contractors are required to provide services.
Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants,
restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and
employee share purchase plans. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 expresses views of the
staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules
and regulations and provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of
share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SFAS No. 123(R)
permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods.
On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance of
retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are
adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those
periods under SFAS 123.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the majority of the
counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international
credit-rating agencies and state-owned banks with good reputation.
The
Company’s management monitors both vendor and customer concentration figures.
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, three customers accounted for
20%, 9%, and 9% of sales, respectively while one supplier accounted for 100% of
purchases. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, two customers
accounted for 22% and 12% of sales while two suppliers accounted for 63% and 37%
of purchases.
Deferred
Taxes
We
utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes. We record a
valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we
believe is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for
a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including
scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable
income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. As a
result of our cumulative losses, we have concluded that a full valuation
allowance against our net deferred tax assets is appropriate.
In July
2006 the FASB issued FIN 48(ASC 740-10),
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(ASC 740)
, which
requires income tax positions to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition
threshold to be recognized in the financial statements. Under FIN 48(ASC
740-10), tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not
threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting
period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions
that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be derecognized in
the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no
longer met.
The
application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual
interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves
are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in
legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings. Therefore,
the actual liability may be materially different from our estimates, which could
result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse
previously recorded tax liabilities or deferred tax asset valuation
allowance.
As a
result of the implementation of FIN 48 (ASC 740-10), the company made a
comprehensive review of its portfolio of tax positions in accordance with
recognition standards established by FIN 48 (ASC 740-10). The Company
recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders’ equity in
lieu of the implementation. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material
impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Income
Taxes
The
Company determined that due to its continuing operating losses, no income tax
liabilities existed at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Long Lived
Assets
We
account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets which consist
primarily of intangible assets with finite lives and property and equipment in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 144 (ASC 360),
Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
We periodically review the recoverability
of the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the
forecasted future undiscounted net cash flows from operations to which the
assets relate, based on our best estimates using the appropriate assumptions and
projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the assets. If the
carrying value is determined not to be recoverable from future operating cash
flows, the assets are deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized equal
to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of
the assets. Based upon management’s assessment, there was no impairment at
March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment, at least on an annual basis
and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value
may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows.
Recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is
measured by comparing their net book value to the related projected undiscounted
cash flows from these assets, considering a number of factors including past
operating results, budgets, economic projections, market trends and product
development cycles. If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related
undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired, and a second test is
performed to measure the amount of impairment loss.
Contingencies
From time
to time we are involved in disputes, litigation and other legal proceedings.
We prosecute and defend these matters aggressively. However, there
are many uncertainties associated with any litigation, and we cannot assure you
that these actions or other third party claims against us will be resolved
without costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges. We record
a charge equal to at least the minimum estimated liability for a loss
contingency when both of the following conditions are met: (i) information
available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is
probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the
date of the financial statements and (ii) the range of loss can be reasonably
estimated. However, the actual liability in any such disputes or
litigation may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in
the need to record additional costs.
Advertising
Costs
We
expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $0 and
$2,427 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively.
Net Loss per Common
Share
Basic net
loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share
reflects the potential dilution of securities by including common stock
equivalents, such as stock options, stock warrants and convertible preferred
stock, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period,
if dilutive. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were no
potentially dilutive securities.
NOTE
4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June
2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 (previously SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting
Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("GAAP") - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162), which will
become the source of authoritative accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental
entities. The Codification is effective in the third quarter of 2009, and
accordingly, all subsequent reporting will reference the Codification as the
sole source of authoritative literature. The Company does not believe that
this will have a material effect on its financial statements.
In June
2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events),
which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events
that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are
issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2009. There was no material impact upon the
adoption of this standard on the Company’s financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 860 (previously SFAS No. 166, “Accounting
for Transfers of Financial Assets”) , which requires additional information
regarding transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions,
and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred
financial assets. SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying
special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial
assets, and requires additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company does not
believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810 (previously SFAS No. 167) for
determining whether to consolidate a variable interest entity. These
amended standards eliminate a mandatory quantitative approach to determine
whether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interest in
a variable interest entity in favor of a qualitatively focused analysis, and
require an ongoing reassessment of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary.
The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial
statements.
In August
2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-05, which amends
ASC Topic 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional
guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. These amended
standards clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active
market for the identical liability is not available, we are required to use the
quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices
for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as
assets. If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use
another valuation technique, such as an income approach or a market approach.
These amended standards are effective for us beginning in the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2009 and did not have a significant impact on our
financial statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition – Multiple
Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 updates the
existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance currently included in
FASB ASC 605-25. The revised guidance provides for two significant changes
to the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance. The first
change relates to the determination of when the individual deliverables included
in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of
accounting. This change will result in the requirement to separate more
deliverables within an arrangement, ultimately leading to less revenue deferral.
The second change modifies the manner in which the transaction
consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables.
Together, these changes will result in earlier recognition of revenue and
related costs for multiple-element arrangements than under previous guidance.
This guidance also expands the disclosures required for multiple-element
revenue arrangements. The Company does not believe that this will have a
material effect on its financial statements.

points. The loan had a personal guaranty from the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, as well as the Company’s assets, with an

NOTE
12 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Common
Stock
All
outstanding shares of Common Stock are of the same class and have equal rights
and attributes. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share
on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company. All
shareholders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be
declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Common Stock are entitled
to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities. The
shareholders do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.
Preferred
Stock
The
Company’s Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of Preferred Stock
with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by our
Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered,
without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend,
liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect
the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common
Stock.
Shares Issued in Lieu of
Promissory Notes
In March
2006, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to sell and issue
common shares 159,909 common shares at $0.20324 per share (or 162,500 shares at
$0.20 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) for an
aggregate amount of $32,500. Those shares were issued to nine of the
Company’s officers and employees at that time, including 29,522 shares (or
30,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) to the
Secretary of the Company. The purpose of those stock issuances was
primarily to motivate employees and increase their loyalty to the Company by
inviting them to participate into the Company’s equity and become shareholders.
The Company obtained three-year full recourse promissory notes bearing
interest at 8.0% as consideration for the common shares issued which have been
reflected as a stock subscription receivable at December 31, 2008. As of
December 31, 2008, no principal payments had been received on the promissory
notes. As of March 2009, except for the Secretary of the Company, the
other eight employees were no longer with the Company. After performing
collection efforts, and even though the notes state that the undersigned parties
of the notes agreed to remain bound notwithstanding any extension, modification,
waiver, or other indulgence or discharge or release of any obligor hereunder,
due to the high uncertainty of payment collection from the eight former
employees, the balance of $26,500 was written off and recorded as other expense
for the year ended December 31, 2008. In July 2009, the promissory note
with the Secretary of the Company in the amount of $6,000 was renewed in writing
and extended to March 1, 2012, and was recorded as subscription receivable as of
March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Shares Issued for Service
Performed
On July
24, 2008, the Company issued 35,150,433 common shares at $0.000004 per share
which occurred in the period between the two stock-splits (or 3,572 shares at
$0.039 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008) to the
thirteen original shareholders for professional and administrative services
previously provided to the Company.
In
February 2008, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for designing five to eight sets of new wheels
from which the Company selected two final sets for molding. The designs
and molding should be completed prior to October 2008. Compensation for
these services was agreed at $60,000 that shall be paid in cash or the Company’s
common shares upon completion of work. On or around October 27, 2008, the
new designs and molding of wheels were completed. On October 27, 2008, the
Company issued 1,920,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value
on the date the works were completed (the measurement date), or a total value of
$38,400 to compensate the vendor. Such amount was recorded through
professional expense for the year ended December 31, 2008, and the remaining
$21,600 was recorded as accrued expense. On February 5, 2009, the Company
issued 1,080,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the same fair market value as
on the date the works were completed, or a total value of $21,600 to compensate
the vendor and payoff the remaining balance.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two
individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August
2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although
molding is not included in the service for this time. Compensation for
such designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the
Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. Those two
individuals are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056%
and 0.00053% of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such
agreement. On February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 4,800,000
common shares, with one received 2,500,000 shares and the other received
2,300,000 shares, at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the date of
issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into
the agreement. Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for
nonperformance as set forth in the agreement, the equity award granted to the
two individuals performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on
the date the parties entered into the contract. Immediately after the share
issuances, the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common
shares, respectively. The $96,000 was initially recorded as prepaid
expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December
31, 2009 upon completion of the wheel designs.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for searching and identifying at least five new
wheel manufacturers for the Company during the period from March 2009 to
December 2009. Compensation for such service was agreed at $40,000 which
shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.
On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 common shares at $0.02
per share, the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date),
or a total value of $40,000 upon entering into the agreement. Although
there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth
in the service agreement, the equity award granted to the party performing the
services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered
into the contract. The $40,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense
and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31,
2009.
In
February 2009, the President and CEO of the Company verbally assigned $100,000
of the debt owed to her by the Company, to Mr. Hsun-Ching Chuang, the major
shareholder of Max Fung Trading Co., Ltd. for repaying a personal loan she was
obligated to Mr. Chuang. Mr. Chuang agreed to accept the Company’s common
shares in repaying such debt. Mr. Chuang was a non-related party prior to
accepting the shares in payment of the loan. On February 11, 2009, the
Company issued 5,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value
on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $100,000 to
Mr. Chuang. The balance of loan from the President and CEO of the Company
was reduced by $100,000 accordingly.
Also in
February 2009, the Company entered into a written service agreement with Mr.
Chuang for services of searching new investors and funding resources for the
Company during the period from February 2009 to February 2012.
Compensation for such service was agreed at $100,000 which shall be paid
in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. Both
parties agreed that the shares issued should be returned to the Company without
recourse for nonperformance of the services. On February 11, 2009, the
Company issued 5,000,000 shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the
date of performance commitment, upon entering into the agreement. As
agreed, 2,000,000 shares should be returned to the Company if the amount of new
funding through such service is less than $150,000 by the end of the service
period, whereas all 5,000,000 shares should be returned to the Company if less
than $120,000. Immediately after the above two share issuances, Mr. Chuang
owned 11.59% of the Company’s common shares. The $100,000 was initially
recorded as prepaid expense, of which $8,333 and 30,556 was expensed during the
first quarter of 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, leaving the
remaining $61,111 and $69,444 recorded in the prepayment as of March 31, 2010
and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Stock
Splits
For the
purpose of better liquidity for the Company’s common shares, the Company’s Board
of Directors approved an increase of its number of authorized common shares from
5,000 to 200,000,000 in February 2006 and changed the par value per share from
$80.00 to $0.0001, immediately followed by a 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split.
A certificate of amended articles of incorporation was filed with the
California Secretary of State stating the increased number of authorized common
shares.
In June
2008, under the advice of the Company’s former securities legal counsel, given
that the Company did not state the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the
aforementioned amended articles of incorporation filed with the California
Secretary of State in February 2006, the Company should mitigate such seemingly
administrative oversight by conducting a reverse stock-split to eliminate the
effect of the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split, immediately followed by a
forward stock-split and corresponding corporate filings with the California
Secretary of State stating these two splits, the result of which should not to
affect shareholder stake or stock value. It was believed that these two
splits should complete the mitigation of the seemingly administrative oversight
as stated above.
Therefore,
on June 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10,000
reverse stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of
record at the close of business on June 30, 2008 received one (1) share of
common stock for every ten thousand (10,000) shares held. The Company
issued shares in order to round up fractional shares resulting from the reverse
split to the next higher whole number of shares. Any such issuance did not
constitute a sale pursuant to Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
On July
24, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 9,840.546697 for 1 forward
stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of record at
the close of business on July 24, 2008 received 9,840.546697 shares of common
stock for every one (1) share held.
The
cumulative effect of those two stock-splits was a 1 for 0.9841 reverse split for
the Company’s common stocks. The purpose of these two stock-splits was
intended to mitigate the seemingly administrative oversight as mentioned
previously, but not to change the shareholder stake or stock value.
Management
was subsequently advised otherwise that stating the 30,000 for 1 forward
stock-split in the amended articles of incorporation was not a requirement in
the State of California, thus such omission in the corporate filing did not
affect the legitimacy and effectiveness of the 30,000 for 1 stock-split executed
in February 2006 given that it was appropriately approved by the Company’s Board
of Directors.
Common
stocks, additional paid-in capital, number of shares and per share data for
prior periods have been restated to reflect the stock splits as if they had
occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.
Shares
Cancelled
In
October 2008, to ensure that the two stock-splits did not affect the shareholder
stake, management conducted an analysis by comparing the numbers of shares of
the original thirteen shareholders subsequent to the July 24, 2008 forward
stock-split with their numbers of shares prior to the June 30, 2008 reverse
stock-split, noting that an additional 33,696,125 shares were added to the
thirteen shareholders. These additional shares were primarily resulting
from the 35,150,433 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders at $0.000004 per
share on July 24, 2008 (or 3,572 shares at $0.039 per share prior to the forward
stock-split on July 24, 2008). The 3,572 shares were the number of shares
initially intended to be issued immediately after the forward stock-split, but
were processed and issued by our transfer agent prior to the split. As a
result, the 3,572 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders were affected by
the forward stocks-split turning into 35,150,433 shares.
On
October 1, 2008, the Company’s President & CEO sent out letters to those
thirteen shareholders requesting that they return their corresponding numbers of
shares to the Company, aggregating to the 33,696,125 shares as stated above,
including 24,419,225 shares with our President & CEO. On October 27,
2008, eight of the thirteen original shareholders cancelled and returned a total
of 7,716,538 shares to the Company without consideration being exchanged.
Our President & CEO cancelled and returned 21,866,527 shares to the
Company on July 30, 2009 and additional 2,552,698 shares on May 11, 2010 with no
consideration being exchanged. The remaining 1,560,362 shares are still
unreturned from other shareholders. Our President & CEO will continue to
remind and communicate with those shareholders for them to notify the transfer
agent of share cancellation.
NOTE
13 – COMMITMENTS
Operating
Leases
We lease
office space, automobiles and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases,
which expire at various dates through September, 2012. Operating lease
expenses was $21,584 and $91,253 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009, respectively.
New Facility
Lease
In
January 2008, we entered into a lease contract with Mission BP, LLC, under which
we will lease approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse space
located in Pomona, California. The lease contract provided a term of 60
months, commencing in March 2008 and ending February 2013. Rental
obligations will be payable on a monthly basis. In March, 2009, the
Company terminated the lease and entered into settlement with Mission BP,
LLC.
Immediately
after terminating the lease with Mission BP, LLC, in March 2009, the Company
assumed a three-month sublease from Zonet USA Corporation for 8,460 square feet
of office and warehouse space located in Walnut, California. The sublease
contract commenced in April 2009 and will end in June 2009. As required
and in conjunction with the sublease, the Company entered into a lease agreement
with Bayport Harrison Associates, LP for the same location commencing July 2009
and ending September 2012. Such change corresponds to the Company’s cash
flow management strategy, which will better preserve spending in operating
expenses and increase available capital in inventory purchase, marketing, and
other revenue-generating activities.
Future
minimum lease payments due subsequent to March 31, 2010 under all non-cancelable
operating leases for the next five years are as follows:

NOTE
14 – CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION LIABILITIES
On
February 2, 2009, Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. aka Spanish Broadcasting
Systems, Inc. dba KXOL adba KXOL Latino 96.3 FM (the “Plaintiff”), filed a
complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Beverley Hills Courthouse
for reasonable value, account stated, and open book account for commercial
advertisement performed by KXOL, seeking damages of $12,200, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from October 28, 2007.
The Company disputed Plaintiff’s entitlement to amounts claimed and
instructed the Company’s legal counsel to contest the action, while concurrently
pursuing opportunities for reasonable settlement. On March 17, 2009,
judgment was entered against the Company. The Company settled the judgment
for the principal amount of $12,000, with the Plaintiff waiving its claims for
attorney’s fees, interest and costs. The $12,000 was recorded as other
payable on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and
“Marketing expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
On
February 20, 2009, Dare Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (the “Plaintiff”), one of
the Company’s major vendors in China, filed a complaint in the Los Angeles
County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for open book account, account stated,
and goods, wares and merchandise, seeking damages of $716,900, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from March 10, 2008. On
April 15, 2009, defendant removed the state court action to the United States
District Court for the Central District of California. On December 14,
2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California
issued a dismissal without prejudice. The dismissal without prejudice was
granted by the court to allow the Plaintiff to proceed with the action in a
proper forum. It is highly uncertain regarding whether the plaintiff would
choose to pursue this claim in another forum. As of March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, the $716,900 was equivalent to the accounts payable owed to
the Plaintiff as recorded on the balance sheet, and was already recorded in
inventory cost which therefore did not impact the statement of operations for
the three months ended March 31, 2010.
On
February 18, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the
Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for unlawful detainer, for
base rent of $25,725.70, additional rent of $4,027.14, holdover damages of
$991.76 per day, and for attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company disputed
Plaintiff’s right to unlawful detainer on the grounds that it had billed for and
collected additional rent in violation of the terms of the lease. The case
went to trial on March 25, 2009, at which time the Company entered into
settlement with Plaintiff as follows:
|
1.
|
The
Company stipulated to restitution of the premises to Plaintiff on or
before April 3, 2009.
|
|
2.
|
The
Company agreed to waive any rights to its security deposit of $56,463.70,
and Plaintiff agreed to apply such security deposit to unpaid rent and
holdover damages incurred by Plaintiff in the action. The $56,463.70
security deposit forfeited was charged through rent expense for the year
ended December 31, 2009
accordingly.
|
|
3.
|
The
parties agreed that the settlement was without prejudice to other claims
either party may have relating to the
tenancy.
|
The
settlement was a favorable resolution for the Company as it allowed it to apply
its security deposit to rent due, and to relocate and replace an above-market
lease with a substantially more economical lease.
On June
3, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los Angeles
County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for alleged damage for breach of lease
in the amount of $41,038, and for attorney’s fees and costs according to proof.
This case is subject to a conditional settlement that calls for a
dismissal of the case no later than May 15, 2012. The total value of the
settlement is $29,000. An initial payment of $2,000 is due on February 28,
2010. The settlement calls for the remainder to be paid in increments of
no less than $1,000 due at the end of each month for twenty-three (23)
consecutive months, starting on March 31, 2010 and concluding February 28, 2012.
Additionally, there is a $4,000 balloon payment due March 31, 2012 upon
the conclusion of payments on February 28, 2012. This balloon payment will
be discounted if the final payment is made prior to February 28, 2011. The
discount shall be $200 for number of months between the early final payment date
and the date of February 2012 and the adjusted payment shall be paid the month
following the actual final payment date. In the event of default on a
payment by more than 3 days, the Company shall be liable for $41,038 less
previous payments and subject to the maximum rate of interest allowed by law.
The $29,000 was recorded as “Rent expense accrued for litigation
settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009,
and other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, with $12,000 due
within one year recorded under current liabilities and $17,000 due over one year
recorded under long-term liabilities. As of March 31, 2010, $12,000 due
within one year was recorded in Other Payable under current liabilities and
$14,000 due over one year was recorded under long-term liabilities.
NOTE
15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Mizati
Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc.:
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. (the
“Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of
operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. as
of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 of the financial
statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and has a stockholders’
deficit at December 31, 2009 and 2008. These matters raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2
to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As
described in Note 16, subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s financial
statements for December 31, 2009 and 2008 and our report thereon dated February
24, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively, the Company restated its statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 to reclassify charges arising
from two litigation settlements to operation expenses, and its balance sheet as
of December 31, 2008 and statement of operations for the year then ended to
record the write-off of subscription receivable and reclassification of interest
expense. In our original reports, we expressed unqualified opinions on
those financial statements, and our opinion on the restated financial
statements, as expressed herein, remains unqualified.

MIZATI
LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Mizati
Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc (referred to herein as the Company, we, our or us) was
organized under the laws of the State of California in calendar year 2001.
The Company is a designer, importer and wholesaler of custom alloy wheels
for passenger cars, sport utility vehicles, and light trucks. The Company
currently markets and distributes three separate and unique brands of luxury
wheels, Mizati®, Hero(TM), and Zati(TM) through a network of 307
distributors.
NOTE
2 – GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will
continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and
the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not
demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to
satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations. The Company had
accumulated deficit of $3,488,466 and $2,559,410 as of December 31, 2009 and
2008, including net losses of $929,056 and $1,250,333 for the years ended
December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, current liabilities
exceeded current assets by $2,335,140 and $1,734,756 at December 31, 2009 and
2008, respectively. These factors indicate that the Company may not be
able to continue its business in the future. The Company finances its
operations by short term and long term bank borrowings with more reliance on the
use of short-term borrowings as the corresponding borrowing costs are lower
compared to long-term borrowings. There can be no assurance that such
borrowings will be available to the company in the future.
In
March 2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement
with Citibank. The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to
$90,000. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable
monthly at approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum until March 2008. The line
of credit was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual basis. The
Company had an unpaid principal balance of $90,000 at December 31, 2009 and
December 31, 2008. In April 2007, the Company entered into a revolving
credit agreement with East West Bank. The credit agreement provides for
borrowings up to $1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts receivable
balance plus 25% of inventory balance as collateral, as well as maintaining an
effective tangible net worth of not less than $300,000 and a current ratio of
not less than 1.0 to 1. Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest
is payable monthly at 8.00% per annum until April 2008. At the end of
April 2008, the Company and East West Bank entered into a business loan
agreement to mature in August 2010 to pay off the remaining balance of the
previous line of credit, with extra proceeds of $40,000 upon execution of the
loan agreement. The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to
the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0 percentage point. On February
18, 2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing that the Company will repay
$1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 11 consecutive
months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid
interest each month for 7 consecutive months starting January 15, 2010, and
$253,533 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment. Total
unpaid principal balance of the business loan and the line of credit at December
31, 2009 and 2008 was $266,019 and $278,019, respectively. In February
2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Bank of
America. The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $92,500.
The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street
Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage points. Total unpaid principal
balance at December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $92,000. This credit line is not
subject to covenants that may restrict the availability of the
funds.
The
Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities
or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements. We anticipate that any
proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for
general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase
inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital. The largest shareholder
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide
financing to the company should it require additional funds.
The
Company may require additional funds and may seek to raise such funds though
public and private financings or from other sources. There is no assurance
that additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such
financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to the Company or that any
additional financing will not be dilutive.
The
Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal
financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has
sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next
twelve months. Management is taking actions to address the company's financial
condition and deteriorating liquidity position. These steps include adjusting
the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management believes is a
sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles.
Specifically, the company plans to develop a smaller sized wheel in the 17”
range to fit smaller cars. Management believes that by expanding into this
market, it can capitalize on consumer demand and drive revenue growth. In an
effort to mitigate freight charges, the Company is speaking to distributors in
markets outside of California about the possibility of shipping products
directly from the manufacturers to their warehouse. This would reduce our
freight charges on long distance shipping orders and allow the company to offer
more competitive pricing. Management believes that this can be a key driver of
expansion into new markets and revenues.

NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include unrestricted deposits and short-term investments with
an original maturity of three months or less.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable and other receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting
of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed.
We assess the collectability of our accounts receivable based primarily
upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and
analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history. Management reviews
the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts,
customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and
changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these
reserves.
Inventories
Inventories
are comprised of finished goods held for sale. We record inventories at
the lower of cost or market value, with cost generally determined on a
moving-average basis. We establish inventory reserves for estimated
obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference
between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based upon
assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand
and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
additional inventory reserves could be required.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of three to
thirty-nine years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the lesser of the remaining term of the lease or the estimated useful
life of the asset. Significant improvements are capitalized and
expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred.
Reclassifications
Certain
comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current period's presentation.
Revenue
Recognition
We
recognize product revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii)
our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the
resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. We recognize revenue for
product sales upon transfer of title to the customer. Customer purchase orders
and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an
arrangement. Shipping documents and the completion of any customer acceptance
requirements, when applicable, are used to verify product delivery or that
services have been rendered. We assess whether a price is fixed or determinable
based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the
sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. We record reductions to revenue
for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that
the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on historical sales
returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.
Historically these amounts have not been material.
Management
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
MIZATI
LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Financial assets and
liabilities measured at fair value
Effective
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 157(ASC 820) Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair
value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are
recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance applies to
other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.
On February 12, 2008, the FASB finalized FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157(ASC 820). This Staff Position delays
the effective date of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) for nonfinancial assets and
liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim
periods within those fiscal years, except for those items that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at
least annually). The adoption of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) had no effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
Share-Based
Payments
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which
replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R)
is now included in ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Under SFAS
No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of
share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and
recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which
employees or independent contractors are required to provide services.
Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants,
restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and
employee share purchase plans. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 expresses views of the
staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules
and regulations and provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of
share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SFAS No. 123(R)
permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods.
On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance of
retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are
adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those
periods under SFAS 123.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the majority of the
counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international
credit-rating agencies and state-owned banks with good reputation.
The
Company’s management monitors both vendor and customer concentration figures.
For the years ended December 31, 2009, two customers accounted for 23% and
15% of sales while one supplier accounted for 100% of purchases. For the
years ended December 31, 2008, one customer accounted for 15% of sales while two
suppliers accounted for 54% and 42% of purchases.
Deferred
Taxes
We
utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes. We record a
valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we
believe is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for
a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including
scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable
income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. As a
result of our cumulative losses, we have concluded that a full valuation
allowance against our net deferred tax assets is appropriate.
In July
2006 the FASB issued FIN 48(ASC 740-10),
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(ASC 740)
, which
requires income tax positions to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition
threshold to be recognized in the financial statements. Under FIN 48(ASC
740-10), tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not
threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting
period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions
that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be derecognized in
the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no
longer met.
The
application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual
interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves
are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in
legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings. Therefore,
the actual liability may be materially different from our estimates, which could
result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse
previously recorded tax liabilities or deferred tax asset valuation
allowance.
MIZATI
LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As a
result of the implementation of FIN 48 (ASC 740-10), the company made a
comprehensive review of its portfolio of tax positions in accordance with
recognition standards established by FIN 48 (ASC 740-10). The Company recognized
no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders’ equity in lieu of the
implementation. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the
Company’s financial statements.
Income
Taxes
The
Company determined that due to its continuing operating losses, no income tax
liabilities existed at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Long Lived
Assets
We
account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets which consist
primarily of intangible assets with finite lives and property and equipment in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 144 (ASC 360),
Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
We periodically review the recoverability
of the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the
forecasted future undiscounted net cash flows from operations to which the
assets relate, based on our best estimates using the appropriate assumptions and
projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the assets. If the carrying
value is determined not to be recoverable from future operating cash flows, the
assets are deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized equal to the
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the
assets. Based upon management’s assessment, there was no impairment at December
31, 2009 and 2008.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment, at least on an annual basis
and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value
may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. Recoverability of
intangible assets and other long-lived assets is measured by comparing their net
book value to the related projected undiscounted cash flows from these assets,
considering a number of factors including past operating results, budgets,
economic projections, market trends and product development cycles. If the net
book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset
is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of
impairment loss.
Contingencies
From time
to time we are involved in disputes, litigation and other legal proceedings. We
prosecute and defend these matters aggressively. However, there are many
uncertainties associated with any litigation, and we cannot assure you that
these actions or other third party claims against us will be resolved without
costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges. We record a charge
equal to at least the minimum estimated liability for a loss contingency when
both of the following conditions are met: (i) information available prior to
issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset
had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial
statements and (ii) the range of loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the
actual liability in any such disputes or litigation may be materially different
from our estimates, which could result in the need to record additional
costs.
Advertising
Costs
We
expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $3,717 and
$107,081 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
Net Loss per Common
Share
Basic net
loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share
reflects the potential dilution of securities by including common stock
equivalents, such as stock options, stock warrants and convertible preferred
stock, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period,
if dilutive. At December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, there were no
potentially dilutive securities.

4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June
2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 (previously SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting
Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("GAAP") - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162), which will
become the source of authoritative accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental
entities. The Codification is effective in the third quarter of 2009, and
accordingly, all subsequent reporting will reference the Codification as the
sole source of authoritative literature. The Company does not believe that
this will have a material effect on its financial statements.
In June
2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events),
which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events
that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are
issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2009. There was no material impact upon the
adoption of this standard on the Company’s financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 860 (previously SFAS No. 166, “Accounting
for Transfers of Financial Assets”) , which requires additional information
regarding transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions,
and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred
financial assets. SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying
special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial
assets, and requires additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company does not
believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810 (previously SFAS No. 167) for
determining whether to consolidate a variable interest entity. These
amended standards eliminate a mandatory quantitative approach to determine
whether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interest in
a variable interest entity in favor of a qualitatively focused analysis, and
require an ongoing reassessment of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary.
The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial
statements.
In August
2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-05, which amends
ASC Topic 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional
guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. These amended
standards clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active
market for the identical liability is not available, we are required to use the
quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices
for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as
assets. If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use
another valuation technique, such as an income approach or a market approach.
These amended standards are effective for us beginning in the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2009 and did not have a significant impact on our
financial statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition – Multiple
Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 updates the
existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance currently included in
FASB ASC 605-25. The revised guidance provides for two significant changes
to the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance. The first
change relates to the determination of when the individual deliverables included
in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of
accounting. This change will result in the requirement to separate more
deliverables within an arrangement, ultimately leading to less revenue deferral.
The second change modifies the manner in which the transaction
consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables.
Together, these changes will result in earlier recognition of revenue and
related costs for multiple-element arrangements than under previous guidance.
This guidance also expands the disclosures required for multiple-element
revenue arrangements. The Company does not believe that this will have a
material effect on its financial statements.

of $40,000 upon execution of the loan agreement. The adjustable interest
rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0
percentage point. On February 18, 2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing
that the Company will repay $1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest
each month for 11 consecutive months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of

January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. The adjustable interest rate is
a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage
points. The loan had a personal guaranty from the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, as well as the Company’s assets, with an
expiration date in February 2015. Total unpaid principal balance at

Shares Issued in Lieu of
Promissory Notes
In March
2006, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to sell and issue
common shares 159,909 common shares at $0.20324 per share (or 162,500 shares at
$0.20 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) for an
aggregate amount of $32,500. Those shares were issued to nine of the
Company’s officers and employees at that time, including 29,522 shares (or
30,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008) to the
Secretary of the Company. The purpose of those stock issuances was
primarily to motivate employees and increase their loyalty to the Company by
inviting them to participate into the Company’s equity and become shareholders.
The Company obtained three-year full recourse promissory notes bearing
interest at 8.0% as consideration for the common shares issued which have been
reflected as a stock subscription receivable at December 31, 2008. As of
December 31, 2008, no principal payments had been received on the promissory
notes. As of March 2009, except for the Secretary of the Company, the
other eight employees were no longer with the Company. After performing
collection efforts, and even though the notes state that the undersigned parties
of the notes agreed to remain bound notwithstanding any extension, modification,
waiver, or other indulgence or discharge or release of any obligor hereunder,
due to the high uncertainty of payment collection from the eight former
employees, the balance of $26,500 was written off and recorded as other expense
for the year ended December 31, 2008. In July 2009, the promissory note
with the Secretary of the Company in the amount of $6,000 was renewed in writing
and extended to March 1, 2012, and was recorded as subscription receivable as of
December 31, 2009.
Shares Issued for Service
Performed
On July
24, 2008, the Company issued 35,150,433 common shares at $0.000004 per share
which occurred in the period between the two stock-splits (or 3,572 shares at
$0.039 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008) to the
thirteen original shareholders for professional and administrative services
previously provided to the Company.
In
February 2008, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for designing five to eight sets of new wheels
from which the Company selected two final sets for molding. The designs
and molding should be completed prior to October 2008. Compensation for
these services was agreed at $60,000 that shall be paid in cash or the Company’s
common shares upon completion of work. On or around October 27, 2008, the
new designs and molding of wheels were completed. On October 27, 2008, the
Company issued 1,920,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value
on the date the works were completed (the measurement date), or a total value of
$38,400 to compensate the vendor. Such amount was recorded through
professional expense for the year ended December 31, 2008, and the remaining
$21,600 was recorded as accrued expense. On February 5, 2009, the Company
issued 1,080,000 common shares at $0.02 per share, the same fair market value as
on the date the works were completed, or a total value of $21,600 to compensate
the vendor and payoff the remaining balance.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two
individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August
2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although
molding is not included in the service for this time. Compensation for
such designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the
Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. Those two
individuals are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056%
and 0.00053% of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such
agreement. On February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 4,800,000
common shares, with one received 2,500,000 shares and the other received
2,300,000 shares, at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the date of
issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into
the agreement. Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for
nonperformance as set forth in the agreement, the equity award granted to the
two individuals performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on
the date the parties entered into the contract. Immediately after the share
issuances, the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common
shares, respectively. The $96,000 was initially recorded as prepaid
expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December
31, 2009 upon completion of the wheel designs.

February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an
individual, a non-related party, for searching and identifying at least five new
wheel manufacturers for the Company during the period from March 2009 to
December 2009. Compensation for such service was agreed at $40,000 which
shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.
On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 common shares at $0.02

or a total value of $40,000 upon entering into the agreement. Although
there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth

In
February 2009, the President and CEO of the Company verbally assigned $100,000
of the debt owed to her by the Company, to Mr. Hsun-Ching Chuang, the major
shareholder of Max Fung Trading Co., Ltd., a non-related party, for repaying a
personal loan she was obligated to Mr. Chuang. Mr. Chuang agreed to accept
the Company’s common shares in repaying such debt. Mr. Chuang was a
non-related party prior to accepting the shares in payment of the loan. On
February 11, 2009, the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per
share, the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or
a total value of $100,000 to Mr. Chuang. The balance of loan from the
President and CEO of the Company was reduced by $100,000
accordingly.
Also in
February 2009, the Company entered into a written service agreement with Mr.
Chuang for services of searching new investors and funding resources for the
Company during the period from February 2009 to February 2012.
Compensation for such service was agreed at $100,000 which shall be paid
in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement. Both
parties agreed that the shares issued should be returned to the Company without
recourse for nonperformance of the services. On February 11, 2009, the
Company issued 5,000,000 shares at $0.02 per share, the fair market value on the
date of performance commitment, upon entering into the agreement. As
agreed, 2,000,000 shares should be returned to the Company if the amount of new
funding through such service is less than $150,000 by the end of the service
period, whereas all 5,000,000 shares should be returned to the Company if less
than $120,000. Immediately after the above two share issuances, Mr. Chuang
owned 11.59% of the Company’s common shares. The $100,000 was initially
recorded as prepaid expense, of which $30,556 was expensed during the year ended
December 31, 2009, leaving the remaining $69,444 recorded in the prepayment as
of December 31, 2009.
Stock
Splits
For the
purpose of better liquidity for the Company’s common shares, the Company’s Board
of Directors approved an increase of its number of authorized common shares from
5,000 to 200,000,000 in February 2006 and changed the par value per share from
$80.00 to $0.0001, immediately followed by a 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split.
A certificate of amended articles of incorporation was filed with the
California Secretary of State stating the increased number of authorized common
shares.
In June
2008, under the advice of the Company’s former securities legal counsel, given
that the Company did not state the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the
aforementioned amended articles of incorporation filed with the California
Secretary of State in February 2006, the Company should mitigate such seemingly
administrative oversight by conducting a reverse stock-split to eliminate the
effect of the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split, immediately followed by a
forward stock-split and corresponding corporate filings with the California
Secretary of State stating these two splits, the result of which should not to
affect shareholder stake or stock value. It was believed that these two
splits should complete the mitigation of the seemingly administrative oversight
as stated above.
Therefore,
on June 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10,000
reverse stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of
record at the close of business on June 30, 2008 received one (1) share of
common stock for every ten thousand (10,000) shares held. The Company
issued shares in order to round up fractional shares resulting from the reverse
split to the next higher whole number of shares. Any such issuance did not
constitute a sale pursuant to Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
On July
24, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 9,840.546697 for 1 forward
stock split for its common stocks. As a result, stockholders of record at
the close of business on July 24, 2008 received 9,840.546697 shares of common
stock for every one (1) share held.
The
cumulative effect of those two stock-splits was a 1 for 0.9841 reverse split for
the Company’s common stocks. The purpose of these two stock-splits was
intended to mitigate the seemingly administrative oversight as mentioned
previously, but not to change the shareholder stake or stock
value.

NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management
was subsequently advised otherwise that stating the 30,000 for 1 forward
stock-split in the amended articles of incorporation was not a requirement in
the State of California, thus such omission in the corporate filing did not
affect the legitimacy and effectiveness of the 30,000 for 1 stock-split executed
in February 2006 given that it was appropriately approved by the Company’s Board
of Directors.
Common
stocks, additional paid-in capital, number of shares and per share data for
prior periods have been restated to reflect the stock splits as if they had
occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.
Shares
Cancelled
In
October 2008, to ensure that the two stock-splits did not affect the shareholder
stake, management conducted an analysis by comparing the numbers of shares of
the original thirteen shareholders subsequent to the July 24, 2008 forward
stock-split with their numbers of shares prior to the June 30, 2008 reverse
stock-split, noting that an additional 33,696,125 shares were added to the
thirteen shareholders. These additional shares were primarily resulting
from the 35,150,433 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders at $0.000004 per
share on July 24, 2008 (or 3,572 shares at $0.039 per share prior to the forward
stock-split on July 24, 2008). The 3,572 shares were the number of shares
initially intended to be issued immediately after the forward stock-split, but
were processed and issued by our transfer agent prior to the split. As a
result, the 3,572 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders were affected by
the forward stocks-split turning into 35,150,433 shares.
On
October 1, 2008, the Company’s President & CEO sent out letters to those
thirteen shareholders requesting that they return their corresponding numbers of
shares to the Company, aggregating to the 33,696,125 shares as stated above,
including 24,419,225 shares with our President & CEO. On October 27,
2008, eight of the thirteen original shareholders cancelled and returned a total
of 7,716,538 shares to the Company without consideration being exchanged.
Our President & CEO cancelled and returned 21,866,527 shares to the
Company on July 30, 2009 and additional 2,552,698 shares on May 11, 2010 with no
consideration being exchanged. The remaining 1,560,362 shares are still
unreturned from other shareholders. Our President & CEO will continue
to remind and communicate with those shareholders for them to notify the
transfer agent of share cancellation.

Operating
Leases
We
lease office space, automobiles and equipment under non-cancelable operating
leases, which expire at various dates through September, 2012. Operating
lease expenses was $141,380 and $317,378 for the years ended December 31, 2009
and 2008, respectively.
New Facility
Lease
In
January 2008, we entered into a lease contract with Mission BP, LLC, under which
we will lease approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse space
located in Pomona, California. The lease contract provided a term of
60 months, commencing in March 2008 and ending February 2013. Rental
obligations will be payable on a monthly basis. In March, 2009, the
Company terminated the lease and entered into settlement with Mission BP,
LLC.
Immediately
after terminating the lease with Mission BP, LLC, in March 2009, the Company
assumed a three-month sublease from Zonet USA Corporation for 8,460 square feet
of office and warehouse space located in Walnut, California. The sublease
contract commenced in April 2009 and will end in June 2009. As required
and in conjunction with the sublease, the Company entered into a lease agreement
with Bayport Harrison Associates, LP for the same location commencing July 2009
and ending September 2012. Such change corresponds to the Company’s cash
flow management strategy, which will better preserve spending in operating
expenses and increase available capital in inventory purchase, marketing, and
other revenue-generating activities.
Future
minimum lease payments due subsequent to December 31, 2009 under all
non-cancelable operating leases for the next five years are as

NOTE
14 – INCOME TAXES
SFAS No.
109(ASC 740) requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more
likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Due to the restrictions imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section
382 regarding substantial changes in ownership of companies with loss
carryforwards, the utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards
will likely be limited as a result of cumulative changes in stock ownership.
As such, the Company recorded a 100% valuation allowance against its net
deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
The
provisions for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were

At
December 31, 2009, the Company had Federal net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $2,971,000 expiring in various amounts throughout the 20-year
period until the year 2029. The Company also had California state net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately ($3,051,000) expiring in varying
amounts throughout the 10-year period until the year 2019.
Effective
January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN
48”)(ASC 740-10) an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (ASC 740),
Accounting for Income Taxes.” The Interpretation addresses the determination of
whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be
recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the Company may recognize
the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than
not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing
authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits
recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured
based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of
being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on
de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes,
accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. At the date of
adoption, and as of December 31, 2009, the Company does not have a liability for
unrecognized tax benefits.
The
Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and
California. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax
examinations by tax authorities for six years after 2003.
During
the periods open to examination, the Company has net operating loss and tax
credit carry forwards for U.S. federal and state tax purposes that have
attributes from closed periods. Since these NOLs and tax credit carry
forwards may be utilized in future periods, they remain subject to
examination.
The
Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions
as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has no accrued
interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
NOTE
15 – CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION LIABILITIES
On
February 2, 2009, Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. aka Spanish Broadcasting
Systems, Inc. dba KXOL adba KXOL Latino 96.3 FM (the “Plaintiff”), filed a
complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Beverley Hills Courthouse
for reasonable value, account stated, and open book account for commercial
advertisement performed by KXOL, seeking damages of $12,200, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from October 28, 2007.
The Company disputed Plaintiff’s entitlement to amounts claimed and
instructed the Company’s legal counsel to contest the action, while concurrently
pursuing opportunities for reasonable settlement. On March 17, 2009,
judgment was entered against the Company. The Company settled the judgment
for the principal amount of $12,000, with the Plaintiff waiving its claims for
attorney’s fees, interest and costs. The $12,000 was recorded as other
payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, and “Marketing expense
accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of operations for the year
then ended.
On
February 20, 2009, Dare Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (the “Plaintiff”), one of
the Company’s major vendors in China, filed a complaint in the Los Angeles
County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for open book account, account stated,
and goods, wares and merchandise, seeking damages of $716,900, with interest
thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from March 10, 2008. On
April 15, 2009, defendant removed the state court action to the United States
District Court for the Central District of California. On December 14,
2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California
issued a dismissal without prejudice. The dismissal without prejudice was
granted by the court to allow the Plaintiff to proceed with the action in a
proper forum. It is highly uncertain regarding whether the plaintiff would
choose to pursue this claim in another forum. As of December 31, 2009, the
$716,900 was equivalent to the accounts payable owed to the Plaintiff as
recorded on the balance sheet, and was already recorded in inventory cost which
therefore did not impact the statement of operations for the year then
ended.

On
February 18, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the
Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for unlawful detainer, for
base rent of $25,725.70, additional rent of $4,027.14, holdover damages of
$991.76 per day, and for attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company disputed
Plaintiff’s right to unlawful detainer on the grounds that it had billed for and
collected additional rent in violation of the terms of the lease. The case
went to trial on March 25, 2009, at which time the Company entered into
settlement with Plaintiff as follows:
|
1.
|
The Company stipulated to
restitution of the premises to Plaintiff on or before April 3,
2009.
|
|
2.
|
The Company agreed to waive
any rights to its security deposit of $56,463.70, and Plaintiff agreed to
apply such security deposit to unpaid rent and holdover damages incurred
by Plaintiff in the action. The $56,463.70 security deposit
forfeited was charged through rent expense for the year ended December 31,
2009 accordingly.
|
|
3.
|
The parties agreed that the
settlement was without prejudice to other claims either party may have
relating to the tenancy.
|
The
settlement was a favorable resolution for the Company as it allowed it to apply
its security deposit to rent due, and to relocate and replace an above-market
lease with a substantially more economical lease.
On
June 3, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los
Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for alleged damage for breach
of lease in the amount of $41,038, and for attorney’s fees and costs according
to proof. This case is subject to a conditional settlement that calls for
a dismissal of the case no later than May 15, 2012. The total value of the
settlement is $29,000. An initial payment of $2,000 is due on February 28,
2010. The settlement calls for the remainder to be paid in increments of
no less than $1,000 due at the end of each month for twenty-three (23)
consecutive months, starting on March 31, 2010 and concluding February 28, 2012.
Additionally, there is a $4,000 balloon payment due March 31, 2012 upon
the conclusion of payments on February 28, 2012. This balloon payment will
be discounted if the final payment is made prior to February 28, 2011. The
discount shall be $200 for number of months between the early final payment date
and the date of February 2012 and the adjusted payment shall be paid the month
following the actual final payment date. In the event of default on a
payment by more than 3 days, the Company shall be liable for $41,038 less
previous payments and subject to the maximum rate of interest allowed by law.
The $29,000 was recorded as “Rent expense accrued for litigation
settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009,
and other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, with $12,000 due
within one year recorded under current liabilities and $17,000 due over one year
recorded under long-term liabilities.
NOTE
16 – RESTATEMENTS
The
Company determined to reclassify $29,000 of rent expense accrued for litigation
settlement with BP LLC and $12,000 of marketing expense accrued for litigation
settlement with KXOL (see Note 15) under Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses that were previously reported under Extraordinary Item in its statement
of operations. The following information discloses the impact of these
corrections on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
