ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

ORGANIZATION WITHIN THE LAST FIVE YEARS

 

On September 14, 2009, the Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. We are engaged in the business of acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties.

 

Daniel Kramer served as the Company’s sole director for one day, September 14, 2009, which is the same date of our incorporation. Mr. Kramer is an employee of Val-U-Corp Services, Inc. (“Val-U-Corp”), which is a company which provides incorporation services in the state of Nevada, our state of incorporation. Linda Lamb, our current Secretary, Treasurer and a director, retained the services of Val-U-Corp for the purpose of incorporating our company. Nevada law requires that at least one director be named in a corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, upon filing with the Nevada Secretary of State. Mr. Kramer named himself a director in our Articles of Incorporation, solely for the purpose of meeting the statutory requirements in Nevada to file Articles of Incorporation, as part of Val-U-Corp’s incorporation’s services. On September 14, 2009, the date our Articles of Incorporation were filed, Mr. Kramer appointed Linda Lamb as a director and Mr. Kramer resigned as a director.

 

Keith Fredricks has served as our President since February 19, 2013. William Drury has served as our Secretary, Treasurer and sole director since February 19, 2013.

 

Edward Hayes served as our President, from July 30, 2010, until February 19, 2013. Linda Lamb served as our Secretary and Treasurer since September 14, 2009, until February 19, 2013, and was President from September 14, 2009 through July 30, 2010.

 

Our board of directors is comprised of one person: William Drury.

 

We are authorized to issue 256,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share.

 

IN GENERAL

 

Cassidy Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2009, and has acquired mineral properties located in the Thunder Bay mining district, Province of Ontario, Canada but has not yet determined whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. We are currently conducting mineral exploration activities on the Mobert Property in order to assess whether it contains any commercially exploitable mineral reserves. Currently there are no known mineral reserves on the Mobert Property.

 

We have not earned any revenues to date. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion which includes a statement raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The source of information contained in this discussion is our geology report prepared by Caitlin L Jeffs, P.Geo., of Fladgate Exploration Consulting, dated June 2011.

There is the likelihood of our mineral claim containing little or no economic mineralization or reserves of gold, zinc and other minerals. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that any commercially viable mineral deposits exist on our mineral claims, that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our property, or, if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs. Further exploration is required before a final determination can be made as to whether our mineral claims possess commercially exploitable mineral deposits. If our claim does not contain any reserves all funds that we spend on exploration will be lost.

 

ACQUISITION OF THE MOBERT PROPERTY

 

On June 17, 2011, we purchased a 100% undivided interest in a mineral claim known as the Mobert property for a price of $5,888. The claim is registered in the name of Kelvin Michael Ladoucour, who is a prospector retained by the Company to stake the Company’s claim. Mr. Ladoucour holds the claim in trust for the Company.

 

We engaged Fladgate Exploration Consulting (“Fladgate”), to prepare a geological evaluation report on the Mobert Property. Caitlin L Jeffs, P.Geo., is the professional geologist at Fladgate who conduct the evaluation. Mr. Jeffs received her HBSc in Geology degree from the University of British Columbia in 2002.

 

The work completed by Mr. Jeffs in preparing the geological report consisted of a review of geological data from previous exploration within the region. The acquisition of this data involved the research and investigation of historical files to locate and retrieve data information acquired by previous exploration companies in the area of the mineral claim.

 

We received the geological evaluation report on the Mobert Property entitled “Mobert Property Review Report” prepared by Mr. Jeffs in April 2011. The geological report summarizes the results of the history of the exploration of the mineral claims, the regional and local geology of the mineral claims and the mineralization and the geological formations identified as a result of the prior exploration. The geological report also gives conclusions regarding potential mineralization of the mineral claims and recommends a further geological exploration program on the mineral claim. The description of the Mobert Property provided below is based on Mr. Jeffs’s report.

 

We commenced Phase 1 of the exploration program on August 1, 2012. Approximately $4,862 was expended on the Mobert Property between August 1, 2012 and September 21, 2012.

On September 21, 2012, the Company received its 2012 Soil Sampling Program report for soil sampling for the Mobert Property. The report, prepared by Fladgate Exploration Consulting Corporation, confirmed that soil samples were taken from the Mobert Property. The report states, in relevant part:

 

“B-horizon soil sampling was planned over roughly one quarter of the Property. A grid was created consisting of eleven lines spaced 100m apart, with a total of 141 planned samples spaced at 25m. Eight samples were unable to be taken due to ground conditions, leaving 133 samples taken in total.

 

All samples were prepared and analysed through Accurassay Laboratories, located in Thunder Bay, Ontario. All samples sent for analyses are dried at 60°C and subjected to a jaw crusher, proceeding afterwards through an 80-mesh sieve. Samples were analysed for gold, and the Accurassay procedure ALFA3 was selected for fire assay and ICP finish, with minimal sample needed (30g). Detection limits for ALFA3 range from 3 – 10,000ppb.

 

Results from the 2012 soil sampling program are pending.”

 

The Company has not received the 2012 soil sampling results.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $5,888 on the mining claims.

 

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

 

The Mobert property is comprised of 1 mining claim totaling 12 units. The property covers a 1.2 km long portion of the Schreiber-Hemlo greenstone belt.

 

The primary commodity being explored for on the Mobert property is zinc and gold. Exploration in the past consisted of geological mapping, prospecting, airborne and ground magnetic and electromagnetic surveys and some soil sampling.

 

The Mobert property is located in the south central part of the Black River Area Township within the Thunder Bay Mining Division of Northwestern Ontario, Canada (Figure 1). The nearest towns are Manitouwadge 26 km to the north, Marathon 45 km to the southwest and White River 42 km to the southeast. The Hemlo Gold Camp is 23 km to the south-southwest along the TransCanada Highway.

 

The property is on NTS Sheet 42C13. The centre of the property has approximate geographic coordinates of 48°53’24.30”N, 85°50’44.44”W (UTM NAD83 Zone 16N 584614mE, 5415879mN). The Mobert property is comprised of 1 mining claim totaling 12 units and covering 190 hectares, 1.6km long by roughly 1.2km wide in a rectangular shape.

 

The property is situated in Northwestern Ontario at the west end of the Dotted Lake Property. Access to the property is a logging road that branches east from Highway 614 and passes north-easterly through the middle of the property (see Figure 1 below).

 

The nearest towns are Manitouwadge 26 km to the north, Marathon 45 km to the southwest and White River 42 km to the southeast. The Hemlo Gold Camp is 23 km to the south-southwest along the TransCanada Highway. A pool of skilled labour for mining and exploration is present in the communities of Manitouwadge, Marathon and White River. All three communities have housing and facilities for educational, commercial and leisure activities. The city of Thunder Bay, 400 km to the west, is the nearest large regional population centre with many services and amenities for industrial, educational and leisure activities. The airport at Thunder Bay has daily schedules flights to Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary and Winnipeg. The nearest railroad is the Canadian Pacific Railroad 20 km to the south along the TransCanada Highway. A Hydro One high voltage power transmission line passes 18 km south of the property.

PHYSIOGRAPHY, CLIMATE, VEGETATION & WATER

 

The climate is characterized by long cold winters and hot summers. Average daily temperatures in summer range from 10° to 24°C and from 0° to -22°C in the winter months. In general, soil sampling, geological mapping and trenching programs are limited to the summer months. Snow cover and freezing conditions prevail from mid-November until late April and make transportation through the property easier for large equipment during the months when swampy wet ground is frozen and easier to move across.

 

The property is covered by lakes, swamps and low wooded hills. Elevations on the property vary from 380 to 450 m above sea level. A steep slope that is difficult to move down or up crosses the centre of the property in a north-easterly direction. The slope is shown in the topography on Figure 1. Vegetation is typical for a mixed boreal forest and the dominant tree species are spruce, balsam, jackpine, birch and poplar.

PROPERTY HISTORY

 

Past documented exploration is summarized in Table 1. A high-grade zinc mineralization was first discovered in the area on Dotted Lake by trapper/prospector A. Fairservice in 1957. This discovery (the Fairservice zinc showing) occurred on the neighbouring Dotted Lake Property and being exploration in the area. In the 1960’s several geophysical surveys were completed on the Mobert Property and geologic mapping was completed by the OGS over the entire Black River area. In 1983, a combined VLF and magnetometer survey was done on the property. Most recently geological mapping and whole rock geochemical sampling was completely in 1993.

 

Recent exploration on the adjacent Dotted Lake property has discovered a previously unknown gold occurrence. In 2008 and 2009 soil sampling and prospecting was carried out on the Dotted Lake Property, which returned positive results for gold on the Dotted Lake property. The following year, a trenching and prospecting program was completed by Fladgate Exploration for Rouge Resources. Four trenches were cut following up on soil anomalies returned in the 2008 and 2009 programs and prospecting.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

 

Information on the regional and area geology is mainly from government sources, maps and reports (Milne 1968, Sirgusa 1986). The property is situated in the Wawa sub-province of the Superior province of the Canadian Shield (Figure 3). All rocks are of Archaean age, with the exception of Proterozoic diabase dykes. The claim covers a portion of the north eastern part of the Schreiber-Hemlo Greenstone Belt. The eastern segment is subdivided into the 2.77 billion year old Hemlo-Black River assemblage to the northeast and the 2.7 billion year old Heron Bay Assemblage to the southwest. The assemblages are separated by the Lake Superior-Hemlo fault zone. The primary rock type of the Hemlo-Greenstone Black River assemblage is mafic volcanics. Felsic and intermediate volcanic rocks and clastics overlie the mafic volcanics. The belt is intruded by numerous felsic granitoids. Several stages of regional folding occurred in the belt, the latest stage is the most pervasive and occurred contemporaneous to, or predated, the intrusion of the granitoid bodies.

 

LOCAL GEOLOGY

 

Local geological data is taken from government reports (Milne 1968, McKay 1994) and from exploration work by Clear Mines Ltd. (Symonds, 1983) and also from drill holes completed by Noranda in 1991 (Degagne 1991) and are supplemented by Andre M. Pauwels NI 43-101 technical report (Pauwels, 2005). The Mobert property claim covers both the northern felsic units and the Dotted Lake Arm portion of the Schreiber-Hemlo Greenstone Belt (Figure 4).

 

9

 

The predominant rock type in the area is foliated, fine grained, dark green, amphibole rich metavolcanic rock. Medium and coarse grained amphibolites are less common and occasional remnant pillow textures have been observed indicating a submarine depositional environment. Small sills and dykes of granitoid rocks are common in the volcanic rocks. A few thin (1 cm to 30 cm) layers of intermediate to felsic volcanic tuffs were observed in the area just north of Dotted Lake in the general vicinity of the Fairservice showing (Pauwels, 2005). A small patch of intermediate volcanics is indicated on Milne’s map (Milne 1968) in the same area and short sections of felsic volcanic rocks were intersected in the Noranda drill holes (Degagne 1991). Magnetite, pyrrhotite-rich and garnetiferous amphibolitic iron formation is reported from drill holes 2 and 3 drilled by Noranda and contains massive sphalerite at the Fairservice showing. These horizons, although volumetrically a small proportion of the rocks in the area, appear to be continuous along strike within the metavolcanic rocks according to geophysical surveys. Foliation of the metavolcanic rock is persistently east-northeasterly trending within an isoclinal syncline within the metavolcanics of the Dotted Lake Arm. This syncline appears to plunge to the west-southwest. The metamorphism within the belt is amphibolite grade.

 

To the east mafic and ultramafic intrusive complex of gabbro, peridotite and serpentinized peridotite intruded along the southern flank of the mafic volcanics. Ground magnetic surveys in the area indicate that this complex extends 800m further to the west than indicated on OGS Map 3086 (Siragusa 1986). This area is covered by overburden. Granitoid rocks of the Dotted Lake Batholith outcrop to the south. The granatoids are pink to light pink in colour, foliated and medium grained, and appear to intrude both the metavolcanics and mafic/ultramafic rocks.

 

LOCAL ALTERATION AND MINERALIZATION

 

Pervasive alteration has not been found over large spans in the area. Small segments of bleached and epidotized amphibolite are described in the Noranda drill holes at the contact of iron formations intersected and in descriptions of the Fairservice showing.

 

Mineralization to the east of the Mobert Property was first discovered at the Fairservice zinc showing. The showing was described in detail by M. Smyk (McKay 1994). According to Smyk, the showing is hosted within a narrow band (up to 80 cm wide) of iron formation within mafic volcanic rock. It is described as follows:

 

“The mineralized zone occurs in the mafic volcanics and is oriented parallel to both the host rock foliation and the elongation direction of the pillows. The host metavolcanics become noticeably altered within 1 m of the mineralized zone.”

 

The mineralization is further described to be exposed over a maximum 20 m length and to contain sphalerite, magnetite, amphibole and disseminated garnet. The southern contact of the mineralization is a 1 m to 2 m thin felsic dyke, in part with the appearance of fissile sericite schist. The mineralization was interpreted by McKay to be hosted by iron formation which can be seen in intermittent outcrops over 200 m to the east of the showing. Grab samples from this iron formation reported by Smyk showed low anomalous zinc values.

 

Several rock samples at the OGS in Thunder Bay show a 2 cm band of massive, coarsely crystalline, dark brown sphalerite (35%) adjacent to well aligned coarse grains of magnetite (25%) intermixed with coarse crystals of sphalerite and a matrix of dark green amphibole and chlorite (40%) and a small amount of disseminated phyrrotite and chalcopyrite. A grab sample reported by Smyk (in McKay 1994) contained 9.44% Zn, 0.012% Cu, and 0.006 oz per ton gold.

 

One other zinc occurrence hosted in iron formation is reported from the Dotted Lake Arm. This occurrence, called the Brinklow zinc showing, is located approximately 6 km to the southwest of the Fairservice showing. The Brinklow showing was drilled by Noranda in 1994 with no significant results (Lockwood 1994).

 

The occurrence of massive sulphide bands hosted in an exhalative sedimentary unit within sea floor volcanic rocks with a component of intermediate to felsic volcanic rock classifies the mineralization as a metamorphosed volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) type of occurrence.

PRESENT PROPERTY CONDITION AND PERMITTING REQUIREMENTS

 

The Mobert Property has no plant and equipment, infrastructure or other facilities, and there is currently no exploration of the Mobert Property. We have incurred $87,516 in operating costs, and an additional $5,888 in property acquisition, as at June 30, 2014. We expect to incur $94,000 of exploration costs to complete Phases 1, 2 and 3 of our Plan of Operation, with Phase 3 being Positive areas of the Mobert Property being diamond drill tested. There is no source of power or water on the Mobert Property that can be utilized.

 

Not less than $4,800 had to have been expended on the Mobert Property prior to September 23, 2015 to keep the claim in good standing for an additional year. No other permits are required for us to perform the exploration activities on the Mobert Property.

 

Approximately, $4,862 was expended on the Mobert Property between August 1, 2012 and September 21, 2012.

 

12

 

On September 21, 2012, the Company received its 2012 Soil Sampling Program report for soil sampling for the Mobert Property. The report, prepared by Fladgate Exploration Consulting Corporation, confirmed that soil samples were taken from the Mobert Property. The report states, in relevant part:

 

“B-horizon soil sampling was planned over roughly one quarter of the Property. A grid was created consisting of eleven lines spaced 100m apart, with a total of 141 planned samples spaced at 25m. Eight samples were unable to be taken due to ground conditions, leaving 133 samples taken in total.

 

All samples were prepared and analysed through Accurassay Laboratories, located in Thunder Bay, Ontario. All samples sent for analyses are dried at 60°C and subjected to a jaw crusher, proceeding afterwards through an 80-mesh sieve. Samples were analysed for gold, and the Accurassay procedure ALFA3 was selected for fire assay and ICP finish, with minimal sample needed (30g). Detection limits for ALFA3 range from 3 – 10,000ppb.

 

Results from the 2012 soil sampling program are pending.”

 

The Company has not received the 2012 soil sampling results.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $5,888 on the mining claims.

  

CONDITIONS TO RETAIN TITLE TO THE CLAIM

 

Provincial and Federal regulations require a yearly maintenance fee to keep the claim in good standing. In accordance with Federal regulations, the Mobert property is in good standing to September 23, 2015. Not less than $4,800 had to have been expended on the Mobert property prior to September 23, 2015 to keep the claim in good standing for an additional year.

 

COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS

 

The mineral exploration business is an extremely competitive industry. We are competing with many other exploration companies looking for minerals. We are a very early stage mineral exploration company and a very small participant in the mineral exploration business. Being a junior mineral exploration company, we compete with other companies like ours for financing and joint venture partners. Additionally, we compete for resources such as professional geologists, camp staff, helicopters and mineral exploration supplies.

 

GOVERNMENT APPROVALS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

 

We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the exploration of minerals in Canada generally, and in Ontario specifically.

 

COSTS AND EFFECTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS

 

We currently have no costs to comply with environmental laws concerning our exploration program. We will also have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental remediation for all work undertaken which causes sufficient surface disturbance to necessitate reclamation work. Both reclamation and environmental remediation refer to putting disturbed ground back as close to its original state as possible. Other potential pollution or damage must be cleaned-up and renewed along standard guidelines outlined in the usual permits. Reclamation is the process of bringing the land back to a natural state after completion of exploration activities. Environmental remediation refers to the physical activity of taking steps to remediate, or remedy, any environmental damage caused, i.e. refilling trenches after sampling or cleaning up fuel spills. Our initial programs do not require any reclamation or remediation other than minor clean up and removal of supplies because of minimal disturbance to the ground. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program we will undertake, beyond completion of the recommended three phases described above. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on our earnings or competitive position in the event a potentially economic deposit is discovered.

EMPLOYEES

 

We currently have no employees other than our directors. We intend to retain the services of geologists, prospectors and consultants on a contract basis to conduct the exploration programs on our mineral claims and to assist with regulatory compliance and preparation of financial statements.

GOING CONCERN

 

Cassidy Ventures Inc. currently has no operations. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion for Cassidy Ventures which includes a statement raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our cash balance at June 30, 2014 was $0 with $300,011 in outstanding liabilities. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are expected to be approximately $35,000. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our directors, who have informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

 

16

 

PLAN OF OPERATION

 

Our plan of operation for the twelve months is to complete the first and second phases of the three phased exploration program on our claim. In addition to the $19,000 we anticipate spending for the first two phases of the exploration program as outlined below, we anticipate spending an additional $16,000 on general and administration expenses including fees payable in connection with complying with reporting obligations, and general administrative costs. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be approximately $35,000. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to funding we may utilize funds from our directors, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to the company.

 

Phase 1: Localized soil surveys, trenching and sampling over known and indicated mineralized zones.

 

Phase 2: VLF-EM and magnetometer surveys.

 

Phase 3: Positive areas will need to be diamond drill tested. The amount of drilling will depend on the success of phase 1 and 2.

 

BUDGET

 

		$
Phase 1			7,000
Phase 2			12,000
Phase 3			75,000
Total			94,000

 

We commenced Phase 1 of the exploration program on August 1, 2012. Approximately $4,862 was expended on the Mobert Property between August 1, 2012 and September 21, 2012.

 

On September 21, 2012, the Company received its 2012 Soil Sampling Program report for soil sampling for the Mobert Property. The report, prepared by Fladgate Exploration Consulting Corporation, confirmed that soil samples were taken from the Mobert Property. The report states, in relevant part:

 

“B-horizon soil sampling was planned over roughly one quarter of the Property. A grid was created consisting of eleven lines spaced 100m apart, with a total of 141 planned samples spaced at 25m. Eight samples were unable to be taken due to ground conditions, leaving 133 samples taken in total.

 

All samples were prepared and analysed through Accurassay Laboratories, located in Thunder Bay, Ontario. All samples sent for analyses are dried at 60°C and subjected to a jaw crusher, proceeding afterwards through an 80-mesh sieve. Samples were analysed for gold, and the Accurassay procedure ALFA3 was selected for fire assay and ICP finish, with minimal sample needed (30g). Detection limits for ALFA3 range from 3 – 10,000ppb.

 

Results from the 2012 soil sampling program are pending.”

 

The Company has not received the 2012 soil sampling results.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $5,888 on the mining claims.

  

Following phase one of the exploration program, if it proves successful in identifying mineral deposits, we intend to proceed with phase two of our exploration program. Subject to the results of phase 1, we anticipate commencing with phase 2 in spring 2015. We will require additional funding to proceed with phase 3 work on the claim; we have no current plans on how to raise the additional funding. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funds to proceed with any work after the first two phases of the exploration program.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors of

Cassidy Ventures, Inc.

Carson City, Nevada

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cassidy Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years then ended. Cassidy Ventures, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 Cassidy Ventures, Inc. as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company's absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, and its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2015 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2014 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Cassidy Ventures, Inc. 

Notes to Financial Statements 

June 30, 2014

 

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Cassidy Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2009, and its year-end is June 30. The Company has acquired mineral properties located in the Thunder Bay mining district, Province of Ontario, Canada but has not yet determined whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of costs incurred for acquisition and exploration of the properties will be dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company’s interest in the underlying properties, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements and to complete the development of the properties and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the sale thereof.

 

Certain amounts in the 2013 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 financial statement presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on net loss.

 

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Accounting

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and are presented in United States Dollars.

 

The Company has elected to adopt early application of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements; it no longer presents or discloses inception-to-date information and other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915.

 

Basic Earnings (loss) per Share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock.

 

Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Notes to Financial Statements 

June 30, 2014

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 3 GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $410,511 at June 30, 2014 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from directors and/or private placement of common stock.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise any capital through any type of offering.

 

NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On February 1, 2013, the Company entered into a 24 month consulting agreement with William Drury, an Officer of this Company and WICAWIBE LLC. 297 President Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231.  The agreement ends on February 1, 2015 and the monthly fee is $15,000. Mr Drury has agreed to defer payment of said fees until the Company receives additional operating capital or upon completion of this agreement. As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the accrued expense is $255,000 and $75,000. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred consulting expense of $180,000 and $75,000, respectively, pursuant to the consulting agreement.

 

The officer of the Company could become involved in other business activities as they become available. This could create a conflict between the Company and the other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such a conflict should one arise.

 

Shareholder advances from a related party as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 are $24,683 and $19,920, respectively.

NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES

 

The Company follows ASC 740. Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes and (b) net operating costs carry-forwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of loss because no recoverably taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carry-forward and accrued expenses has been recognized as it is not determined likely to be realized.

 

The provision for refundable Federal income tax consists of the following for the periods ending:

 

		June 30, 2014				June 30, 2013
Federal income tax benefit attributable to:
Net operating loss		$	67,088			$	42,730
Less, valuation allowance			(67,088	)			(42,730	)
Net benefit		$	-			$	-

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount as follows

 

		June 30, 2014				June 30, 2013
Deferred tax attributed:
Deferred tax benefits –accrued expenses		$	86,700			$	25,500
Net operating loss carryover and accrued expenses			52,874				46,986
Less valuation allowance			(139,574	)			(72,486	)
Net Deferred Tax Asset		$	-			$	-

 

On June 30, 2014 the Company had an unused net operating loss carry-forward of $410,511 that is available to offset future taxable income; the loss carry-forward will start to expire in 2031. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a valuation allowance.

 

NOTE 6 MINERAL PROPERTY

 

On June 17, 2011, the Company paid $5,888 for the property acquisition of claim # 4256860 in the Thunder Bay mining district of, Ontario, Canada. During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $5,888 on the mining claim.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we are responsible for conducting an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the fiscal year covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures means that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, including any consolidating subsidiaries, and was made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014.

 

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

As of June 30, 2014, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

18

 

	·	Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
	·	Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
	·	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statement.

 

In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on that evaluation, completed only by William Drury, our Secretary, Treasurer and sole Director, who also serves as our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, Mr. Drury concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below.

 

This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (i) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (ii) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (iii) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Secretary, Treasurer and sole Director, who also serves as our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, in connection with the review of our financial statements as of June 30, 2014.

 

Management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

 

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING.

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

At VRex Mr. Drury’s work was instrumental in the sale of VRex to the Malaysian Government for inclusion in their Cyber Jaya Technology Park. Mr. Drury holds degrees from Boston University and Baruch College. Mr. Drury is also member of the boards of directors of Quantum Genomics Corporation, ICN Corporation and Global Oxygen Development Corp.

 

TERM OF OFFICE

 

All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors will consist of no less than three members. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, who does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.

 

CERTAIN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

No director, nominee for director, or executive officer of the Company has appeared as a party in any legal proceeding material to an evaluation of his ability or integrity during the past five years.

 

SIGNIFICANT EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

 

Other than our officers and directors, we currently have no other significant employees.

 

AUDIT COMMITTEE AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

 

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board of Directors established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company is an early exploration stage company and has only two directors, and to date, such directors have been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.

 

There are no family relationships among our directors or officers. Other than as described above, we are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.

 

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on our review of filings made on the SEC website, and the fact of us not receiving certain forms or written representations from certain reporting persons that they have complied with the relevant filing requirements, we believe that, during the year ended June 30, 2014, none of our executive officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

 

CODE OF ETHICS

 

The Company has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Company has not adopted a code of ethics because it has only commenced operations.
