PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF "SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS" OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.
Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Form 10-K ("Form 10-K") constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

RISKS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
The following risk factors and other information included in this Annual Report should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected. We could be forced to suspend operations entirely. Before considering any kind of investment in our common stock, you should be aware that there are numerous risks, as described below. You should carefully consider all these risk factors together with all of the other information available before you decide to purchase shares of our common stock.
WE HAVE AN ACCUMULATED DEFICIT AND ANTICIPATE FURTHER LOSSES.
We have incurred significant losses since we began doing business. For the year ended December 31, 2012 we incurred a net loss of $4,581,906. There can be no assurance that our services and products will ever generate sufficient revenues or that our operations will ever be profitable. As of December 31, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of
$27,547,029.
We expect to incur operating losses for the near future until we can generate sufficient sales to cover our operating expenses.
We have generated limited revenues to date from the business we conduct and there can be no assurance that we will ever generate sufficient revenues from the business we conduct to cover all of our operating
expenses. We also expect to significantly increase our operating expenses to expand our sales and marketing operations, to fund greater levels of product development, and to develop other forms of revenue generating business and licensing of our proprietary materials to others.
We expect to incur losses in 2013, and we may never achieve profitability. Accordingly, we may not be able to implement our business strategy, and the price of our common shares may decline. Our quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly and may fail to meet the expectations of investors, and cause the price of our common shares to decline.
WE RECEIVED AN OPINION FROM OUR ACCOUNTANTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012, WHICH RAISED DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AFTER SUCH DATE AS A GOING CONCERN.
Our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, which are included in this Form 10-K, indicate that there was substantial doubt as of December 31, 2012 about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our need to generate cash from operations and obtain additional financing. We have had a going concern opinion from our auditors since our inception in 1997.
WE NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO FUND OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.
We need to raise additional funds because our cash flows have proven to be insufficient to fund operations, including our obligations to pay minimum royalties under our agreements. Several of our trade creditors and licensors have outstanding balances and may elect to sue to recover their amounts owed. Management feels that these can be defended or settled on favorable terms. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We may raise funds through equity or debt financings, depending on our opportunities. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, this will further dilute the interests of our current stockholders. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt securities, we will be subject to the risks associated with incurring substantial indebtedness, including the risks that interest rates may fluctuate and cash flow may be insufficient to pay principal and interest on any such indebtedness. We have no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, additional financing, and it is not anticipated that our existing stockholders will provide any portion of our future financing requirements.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY IN THE MOBILE PHONE, MOBILE ACCESSORY, MOBILE DATA AND GAMING, AND OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARE MARKETS. THIS WOULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OR BUSINESS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
As we attempt to expand into the iPhone app market our future growth will depend on the commercial success of our branded products. The markets for these products and services are highly competitive and we expect competition to increase in the future. Most of our competitors in this market have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. This will make it difficult for us to compete successfully.
THE LOSS OF OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S SERVICES WOULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON US.
Our success will be largely dependent on the efforts of Peter Klamka, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and his ability to forge new relationships with celebrities and to maintain such relationships, as well as to oversee the development and maintenance of our products. Our success will also be highly dependent on Mr. Klamka's ability, as well as the ability of others employed by us, to successful market new products and develop new products. The loss of his services would have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
We have not entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Klamka and Mr. Klamka has not entered into any agreement restricting his involvement in a business which competes with us. As a result, Mr. Klamka is an employee-at-will and has the right to leave us at any time. Mr. Klamka has informed us that he intends to devote a portion of his working time to our business and that he also intends to devote a portion of his time to other business interests that do not compete with our business. In addition, Mr. Klamka is not restricted from entering into a competing business after the term of his employment with us; provided, however, that he would not be permitted to use proprietary information and trade secrets belonging to us. Our success will also be dependent upon our ability to hire and retain marketing, financial and other personnel. Competition for qualified personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that we will be able to hire or retain additional qualified personnel. The loss of our Chief Executive Officers service would have a material adverse effect on us.
At the present time we are unable to pay any dividends.
The Company has not paid any cash dividends and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. It is anticipated that earnings, if any, which may be generated from operations will be used to finance the continued operations of the Company. Investors who anticipate the immediate need of cash dividends from their investment should refrain from purchasing any of the securities offered hereby.
Future issuance of securities could cause dilution to existing shareholders.
The Company has the authority to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, and to issue options and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock without stockholder approval. The company expects to regularly issue shares to fund operations and to satisfy outstanding convertible notes. Future issuances of common will dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders and may reduce the market price of our common stock. Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights.
There is currently a limited trading market for our common stock and our stock experiences price fluctuations.
There is currently a limited market for our common stock and we can provide no assurance to investors that a more robust market will develop. If a more robust market for our common stock does not develop, our shareholders may not be able to resell the shares of our common stock they have purchased and they may lose all of their investment. Our stock is thinly traded and is therefore subject to significant fluctuations if the amount of trading increases significantly for a short period of time. Even one large trade could materially affect the price of the stock even though the status of the Company remains unchanged.
The trading price of our common stock may be subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control, including, without limitation, public announcements regarding our Company, purchases or sales by existing stockholders, changes in government regulations, conditions in our market segment or changes in earnings estimates by analysts. These fluctuations may have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock.
In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for technology related companies in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. Market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of managements attention and resources.

Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Lines of Business
CEPHAS Holding Corp formerly Legend Mobile, Inc., (the "Company"), was incorporated in Delaware on January 13, 1998 and is the successor to Interactive Entertainment Studio, Inc. (IES). IES was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 27, 1997 and was merged into the Company in March 1998 for the sole purpose of changing the domicile of the Company to Delaware. On June 27, 2002, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation name from PTN Media, Inc. to Legend Mobile, Inc. In October 2008, the Company amended its articles to change the name to CEPHAS Holding Corp.
The Company is a developer and marketer of branded mobile phone applications for the iPhone platform. The Company is an approved developer by Apple Computer to distribute its products on their iTunes store. The Company currently sells the Iron Sheik Soundboard and it distributes free of charge MMA Underboss -a newswire dedicated to mixed martial arts news. The Company also has a license from Mixed Martial Arts Champion, Fedor Emelianeko to produce iPhone applications under his brand and is currently developing that application.
In February 2001, the Company formed Legend Credit as a wholly owned subsidiary. On April 1, 2003, Mr. Peter Klamka, CEO of the Company, contributed the rights to an affinity credit card business valued at $37,000 to Legend Credit. Mr. Klamka's contribution has been determined pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 29, "Non monetary Transactions," using his cost basis in the investment, which is the most readily determinable cost. In exchange for this contribution, Legend Credit issued to Mr. Peter Klamka 60% of the issued and outstanding shares of Legend Credit common stock and the Company issued to Mr. Klamka 850,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock. These issuances were valued at $22,200 and $14,800, respectively. The Company retains a 40% minority interest in Legend Credit which is accounted for using the equity method. Effective October 1, 2004, Mr. Klamka contributed an additional 10% interest in Legend Credit to the Company that was valued at $3,700 (10% of $37,000, the original value of the affinity credit card business). The Company now owns 50% of Legend Credit and accounts for the subsidiary using the acquisition method. The subsidiary currently has no business operations.
In July 1999, the Company formed Legend Studios, Inc. (formerly
FragranceDirect.com
, Inc.) ("Legend Studios"), a majority owned subsidiary. As of June 30, 2011, Legend Studios did not have any further 1201operations.
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, had an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficit. In addition, the Company generates minimal revenue from its operations and is in default on the payment of notes payable and license fee payable obligations. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly prepared within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
The Company plans to take the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence. The Company is seeking additional equity or debt capital to expand its mobile application business.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 91%-owned subsidiary, Legend Studios, and its 50% owned subsidiary, Legend Credit. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company defines cash equivalents as all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less, plus all certificates of deposit.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. As of December 31, 2012 the Company used estimates in determining the value of common stock issued to consultants for services. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $250,000 insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130 (ASC220-10), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. Examples of items to be included in comprehensive income, which are excluded from net income, include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. Comprehensive income (loss) is not presented in the Company's financial statements since there is no difference between net loss and comprehensive loss in any period presented.
Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC 718. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to common stock and options to purchase common stock granted to employees and related parties of the Company. The Company determines the cost of common stock grants at the date the common stock was issued, based on the quoted market price of the Companys common stock and recognizes the cost as expense over the requisite service period. The Company estimates the fair value of all warrants and options issued during the period using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the assumptions appropriate to the circumstances of the Company at the time of the transaction. There were no options or warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2012.
The Company records deferred tax assets for awards that result in deductions on the Companys income tax returns, based on the amount of compensation cost recognized and the Companys statutory tax rate in the jurisdiction in which it will receive a deduction. Differences between the deferred tax assets recognized for
financial reporting purposes and the actual tax deduction reported on the Companys income tax return are recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced a framework for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the standard for those financial assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year and the impact of adoption was not significant. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(ASC 820) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entitys own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
|
|
·
|
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
|
·
|
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
·
|
Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
|
The Company applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued interest, license fee payable, due to related parties, and advances from an officer. The fair value of the Companys notes payable is estimated based on current rates that would be available for debt of similar terms which is not significantly different from its stated value.

Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposals are included in the results of operations.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from the sale of products on its web sites and through other channels, the sale of advertisements on radio stations it operated and service fees from the sale of debit cards. The Company recognizes revenue for these product sales when the product is shipped to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue from the radio stations it operated when advertisements were aired. The Company recognizes service fee revenue from the sale of debit cards at the time the customer is sent the
debit card. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as revenue and related costs are charged to cost of sales. No revenues have been recognized for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 (ASC 360), "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement also amends ARB No. 51 (ASC 810), "Consolidated Financial Statements", to eliminate the exception to consolidation for a subsidiary for which control is likely to be impaired. SFAS No. 144 (ASC 360) requires that long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including those of discontinued operations, be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 (ASC 360) broadens the reporting of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and that will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 (ASC 360) also establishes a "primary-asset" approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used. The Company's adoption effective January 1, 2002 did not have a material impact to the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 (ASC 260), "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share have not been presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of options and warrants to purchase common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. The following potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively because the effect would have been anti-dilutive:

All warrants and stock options were cancelled during the year ended December 31, 2007.
Non-Controlling Interest
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 (ASC 810), Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (ASC 810), which addresses the accounting and reporting framework for minority interests by a parent company. SFAS 160 (ASC 810) also addresses disclosure requirements to distinguish between interests of the parent and interests of the non-controlling owners of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 (ASC 810) became effective beginning with our first quarter of 2009. We will be reporting minority interest as a component of equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and below income tax expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. As minority interest will be recorded below income tax expense, it will have an impact to our total effective tax rate, but our total taxes
will not change. For comparability, we will be retrospectively applying the presentation of our prior year balances in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company. The Company has reviewed the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporations reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration.

Investments
The Company has made investments in a private company, in the amount of $360,000 and $220,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Cephas accounts for the investment at cost, as the investments are collateralized by demand notes payable. There has been no negative evidence of impairment or reasons to reduce the investment. Management has considered like values of like investment, future discounted cash flows, estimated return on investment and other unobservable considerations in determining that cost represents fair market value. See Note 10 Commitment and Contingencies.

Note 5 -
Notes Payable - Officer
An officer, the controlling shareholder, has pledged his support to fund continuing operations; however there is no written commitment to this effect. The Company is dependent upon continued support.

As of December 31, 2012, the balance on this note is $263,496 with accrued interest related to this note amounted to $449,898.
During the year ended December 2006 the Company converted certain of the accrued amounts owing to the CEO and for salaries payable to the CEO into a note totaling $758,920. This note is unsecured and bears interest at the rate of 21% per annum. Accrued interest to date is $1,001,329.

On December 30, 2011 a promissory note was issued for accrued salaries for the last 2 years, issued to Peter Klamka, in the amount of $350,000 bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum, payable upon written demand. The note is convertible, at the option of the holder, at a fixed share price of $.875, the closing bid for the common shares as of December 30, 2011. At December 30, 2011, the Company, at the request of the holder, issued 261,400 (post split) shares, reducing this note in the amount of $107,350. There was no discount to the stated share conversion price at the date of the agreement; therefore no beneficial conversion rate is recognized. The remaining balance on this note is $242,650 has been paid off. Interest has accrued on this note totaling $916.
Per the convertible debt agreements the conversion price is to be calculated by dividing the amount of outstanding principal by the stated conversion price. Since the convertible debt can be converted at anytime from the signing of the agreement forward, the closing prices of the convertible debt agreement dates were used for the calculation of the beneficial conversion feature, in accordance with ASC 470. There was no beneficial conversion feature associated with the convertible debt, as the conversion rate approximated the fair market value of the trading shares at the date of signing.
