CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING EXPLORATION STAGE STATUS

 

We are considered an “exploration stage” company under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7, Description of Property by Issuers Engaged or to be Engaged in Significant Mining Operations (“Industry Guide 7”), because we do not have reserves as defined under Industry Guide 7. Reserves are defined in Guide 7 as that part of a mineral deposit which can be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. The establishment of reserves under Guide 7 requires, among other things, certain spacing of exploratory drill holes to establish the required continuity of mineralization and the completion of a detailed cost or feasibility study.

 

Because we have no reserves as defined in Industry Guide 7, we have not exited the exploration stage and continue to report our financial information as an exploration stage entity as required under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Although for purposes of FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 915, Development Stage Entities, we have exited the development stage and no longer report inception to date results of operations, cash flows and other financial information, we will remain an exploration stage company under Industry Guide 7 until such time as we demonstrate reserves in accordance with the criteria in Industry Guide 7.

 

Because we have no reserves, we have and will continue to expense all mine construction costs, even though these expenditures are expected to have a future economic benefit in excess of one year. We also expense our reclamation and remediation costs at the time the obligation is incurred. Companies that have reserves and have exited the exploration stage typically capitalize these costs, and subsequently amortize them on a units-of-production basis as reserves are mined, with the resulting depletion charge allocated to inventory, and then to cost of sales as the inventory is sold. As a result of these and other differences, our financial statements will not be comparable to the financial statements of mining companies that have established reserves and have exited the exploration stage.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current or anticipated products, sales and marketing efforts, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management of Kibush Capital Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Company,” “Kibush Capital,” or “we”) and other matters. Forward-looking information may be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or may be incorporated by reference from other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company.

PART I.

 

ITEM 1.  

BUSINESS.

 

Kibush Capital Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or the “Registrant”) is a mineral and natural resources exploration company. We are currently involved in mineral exploration and timber logging through our subsidiary Aqua Mining. Aqua Mining operates a timber logging and processing operation in Papua New Guinea and is also active in mineral exploration in Papua New Guinea where we are exploring for gold.

 

We are an exploration stage company as defined by the Security and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7 as the Company has no established reserves as required under the Industry Guide 7.

History

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 5, 2005 under the name Premier Platform Holding Company, Inc. The Company changed its name to Paolo Nevada Enterprises, Inc. on February 4, 2005. On August 18, 2006, the Company completed a merger with Premier Platform Holding Company, Inc., a Colorado corporation, where Paolo Nevada Enterprises, Inc. was the surviving entity. On November 1, 2006, the Company changed its name to the David Loren Corporation. On July 5, 2013, More Superannuation Fund, an Australian entity (“More”), obtained control of the Company from Beachwood Capital, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. On August 23, 2013, the Company changed its name to Kibush Capital Corporation.

 

On May 26, 2014, we became an initial subscriber to Aqua Mining Limited, a Papua New Guinea limited company (“Aqua Mining”) resulting in a 49% interest. On March 23, 2015, the Company increased its ownership in Aqua Mining from 49% to 90% in exchange for assignment of the Company’s entire interest in the Koranga Joint Venture to Aqua Mining. Due to the increase in ownership and due to the fact that the additional interest in Aqua Mining was acquired from a related party we changed the ament accounting treatment for this asset and are now consolidating its financials with our own. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, Aqua Mining had revenues of $138256, $118,889 in assets and $605,243 in liabilities, of which $493,443 are loans from Kibush Corp.

 

The Company acquired control of Angel Jade Pty Ltd., an Australian limited company (“Angel Jade”) through a series of transactions as follows: In October 2014, the Company negotiated the acquisition of a 50% interest in Angel Jade (which was 90,000,000 shares of common stock) from Five Arrows Limited in exchange for 14,000,000 shares of our common stock. However, this agreement was not formalized until December 10, 2014. On October 9, 2014, the Company acquired 3,673,470 shares of newly issued common stock of Angel Jade in exchange for $17,170 ($19,584 AUD). These two transactions combined were intended to provided Kibush Capital with exactly 51% of the common stock of Angel Jade and control of the that company. On November 6, 2014, the Company further increased its ownership of Angel Jade by purchasing an additional 45,918,300 shares of common stock directly from Angel Jade for $215,994 ($250,000 AUD) and by purchasing 18,367,350 share of common stock from Laima Trust for $86,398 ($100,000 AUD). However, in May of 2016, Angel Jade director and minority owner Alexander King was able to gain control of the company terminate all of Kibush Capital’s ownership interest in Angel Jade. As a result, the Company has not consolidated any financial information of Angel Jade and has written off Angel Jade for the purposes of this report. However, that does not mean the Company will forfeit its available remedies regarding Angel Jade, as the Company believes that the changes Mr. King made to Angel Jade were in violation of Australian law. In fact, on or about September 12, 2016, the Company commenced legal proceedings against Mr. King and others in Australia as described further in Item 3, Legal Proceedings below.

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”).

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any significant revenues from our current business. In addition, we have sustained losses for the past two years and have a negative working capital at September 30, 2016. We must raise cash from sources other than operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company. We must raise cash to continue our mining exploration activities and business development.

 

Our Business

 

Our business is comprised of timber logging and mining exploration through our subsidiary Aqua Mining. Our primary office is located at 7 Sarah Crescent, Templestowe, Victoria 3106, Australia. The Company is an exploration stage company and there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our properties. Further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is determined.

 

On February 14, 2014, we entered into an Assignment and Bill of Sale with Five Arrows Limited (“Five Arrows”) pursuant to which Five Arrows agreed to assign to the Company all of its right, title and interest in two 50 ton per hour trammels, one 35 ton excavator, a warehouse/office, a concrete processing apron and four 35 ton per hour particle concentrators which may be utilized for alluvial mining, the assignment also conveyed Five Arrow’s interest in a joint venture with the holders of mining leases (“Leaseholders”) for gold exploration in Papua New Guinea, specifically Mining Leases ML296-301 and ML278 covering approximately 26 hectares located at Koranga in Wau, Morobe Province, Papua, New Guinea (the “Koranga Property”). In consideration therefore, the Company issued 40,000,000 shares of its common stock to Five Arrows. On February 28, 2014, we entered into a joint venture agreement with the Leaseholders (the “Joint Venture Agreement”) for the exploration of minerals on the Koranga Property. The Joint Venture Agreement entitles the leaseholders to 30% and the Company to 70% of net profits from the joint venture. On May 23 rd 2015 this Joint Venture was sold to our subsidiary Aqua Mining (PNG) Ltd. Aqua Mining will manage and carry out the exploration at the site, including entering into contracts with third parties and subcontractors (giving priority to the Leaseholders and their relatives and the local community for employment opportunities and spin-off business) at its cost, and all assets, including equipment and structures built on the site, will be the property of the Company. The Leaseholders and Aqua Mining will each contribute 1% from their share of net profits to a trust account for landowner and government requirements. For the period ending September 30, 2014 we have incurred expenditure of $208,512 primarily spent on exploration. From October through to December there has been an expenditure of $56,526 on capital equipment and further exploration costs.

 

  -  4  -  
     

 

The joint venture involves a lease that, between 2008 and 2011, has produced a total of 55,300 cubic meters of mined material which was processed to extract 51,000 grams of gold – raw weight (approximately 31kg pure gold) over the three years of mining activities. Gold production in 2010 averaged 1.97kg per month and in 2011 averaged 2.26kg per month. The overall raw gold grade is 0.92g per cubic meter. Pure gold grade is 0.55g per cubic meter. The Company is currently in the exploration stage for this lease. If and when successful, the Company may endeavor to undertake additional joint ventures on neighboring leaseholds (8 leaseholds border the area) to capitalize on the infrastructure and equipment we may install at Koranga.

 

We entered into a memorandum of understanding, dated May 1, 2014 with New Guinea Gold Corporation, for the purchase of New Guinea Gold Ltd., which was terminated by us on May 24, 2014 prior to commencing any transactions contemplated in connection therewith. The Company has no continuing obligations as a result of such termination.

 

Aqua Mining

 

Mining :

 

Aqua Mining is currently in the exploration stage. Aqua Mining was created to undertake certain opportunities that exist within the mining sector of the economy of Papua New Guinea. The Director Mr. Vincent Appo, has extensive experience and knowledge in this sector and has over the years assembled a vast network of contacts and contractors that will assist the company in their managerial and operational endeavors. From the outset the company is negotiating over 2 mine sites for further exploration.

 

Aqua Mining in the past six months has negotiated and finalized with landowners in the WAU area of PNG, Joint Ventures to conduct mineral exploration activities. These Joint Venture Agreements will form the basis of applications to the Mining Resource Authority in PNG for Mining Licenses. In addition, Aqua Mining has been accepted as a developer of AML 694-695.

 

On or about April 8, 2015, the Company commenced exploration of the Alluvial Mining Lease 694/695 via its Subsidiary Aqua Mining PNG Limited. Mr. Vincent Appo, PNG Operations Manager, is overseeing the construction of the required infrastructure which is required for the Company’s exploration activities.

 

On or about April 16, 2015, the Company announced commencement of a Jorc/43-101 report on the Mining Lease 694/695 and pending Mining Lease 296/301 held by its subsidiary, Aqua Mining PNG Limited.

 

Ken Unamba, a member of the Advisory Committee has been nominated to oversee this report. Vincent Appo, PNG Operations Manager, has undertaken substantial testing over the past 12 months on both areas and has enough data as a basis for assessment and review. Mr. Unamba will undertake additional surveys and sampling where necessary to provide further data to finalize the report to Kibush Capital.

 

Logging :

 

The Company, through its subsidiary Aqua Mining, was successful in obtaining Government approval for the commercialization of timber resources at Kubuna and Rigo, Papua New Guinea. The area that we have agreements with the landowners cover at Kubuna 40,000 hectares and Rigo 25,000 hectares. We have commenced logging during the December quarter at Rigo and expect to commence at Kubuna during the March quarter. Both sites are excellent resources covering many species of wood, mainly hardwoods kwila and rosewood, there are a number of exotic wood types. It has taken us some time to establish the infrastructure at Rigo, but we have now completed the access road works and established a base camp for 38 on-site workers.

Paradise Gardens Development

 

Kibush Capital Corporation had entered into a management agreement with Paradise Gardens Development (PNG) Ltd, a Timber Logging and Processing Company with operations in Papua New Guinea (“Paradise Gardens”). The Company has the right to Paradise Gardens operates a Timber Authority registered with the PNG Forest Authority which permits an annual timber harvest of 5000 cubic meters, the total area under the Timber Authority is 3300 hectares. Predominant species include Terminalia, Aglaia, White Cheesewood, Pink Satinwood, Erima, Taun, Rosewood, Kwila and other hardwoods. Paradise Gardens primarily sells its timber locally to retailers and wholesalers in Papua New Guinea. The Company concluded the acquisition of Paradise Gardens on October 7 th 2016. During the negotiation period, (June 2015 to October 7 th 2016) the Company’s management fee includes the profit earned by Paradise Gardens during such period.

 

Market

 

Mining :

 

The primary product is Gold and our market price based on the London Metals Exchange Daily Rate. This rate determines a market price for all material sold within the Refinery Market. Outside of that market competition dictates the price available, and that competition has effectively no difference in the quality of the material as it based on a gold percentage. A higher price can be obtained by selling to the spot traders who can distribute the material at lower volumes to industry consumers.

 

Timber :

 

Initially, we are focusing on the domestic market in Papua New Guinea, where there are a number of major suppliers to the retail market place. As our capacity increases, we will look to export timber to the nearby Australian and Asian markets where demand is greater than supply.

 

Marketing and Distribution :

 

As the principal material is gold, the options are to sell either to a refinery and be paid the daily spot rate, or to sell to the jewelry wholesale market. Both of these options exist internally within PNG however the wholesale market is quite small. There are several options when the material is exported from PNG, again it could be to any refinery within the region and that rate again would be the daily spot rate. The wholesale market outside the country would be significant and there are many opportunities within Australia to sell at a higher than spot rate to that market. There may also be parties that would take up the material on a contractual basis.

 

The timber products will be marketed and distributed from our Timber Yard at Laloki (30 minutes North East from Port Moresby PNG). This facility is within easy reach of trade customers and gives quick access to our wholesale customers. In addition, it provides an opportunity for retail sales to be made direct to end consumers. We have developed marketing and distribution strategies based upon our experience working with the Paradise Gardens customer base over the last 12 months.

 

Competition

 

The mining industry is acutely competitive in all of its phases. We face strong competition from other mining companies in connection with the acquisition of exploration stage properties or properties containing gold, jade and other mineral reserves. Many of these companies have greater financial resources, operational experience and technical capabilities than us. It is our goal to find undervalued properties and team up with local joint venture partners to streamline our time to market and costs. In PNG in particular we are finding a number of such properties, as the enforcement of the Mining Act has forced traditional landowners to comply with the relevant requirements of the act. Their ability to do so is limited as they do not have the financial, or management resources to comply.

 

The logging industry is very competitive in Papua New Guinea. We believe that our policy of working with the landowners and providing direct employment to the local villagers appears to provide us with a competitive advantage of greater acceptance of our activities by government officials, local businesses and local Papua New Guineans.

 

Raw Materials, Principal Suppliers and Customers

 

We are not dependent on any principal suppliers and our raw materials are produced principally through our own mining activities. Our principal customers for our mining activities are refineries based in PNG. A wholesale customer base is yet to be established but that will occur over the next 12 months, after the company received the appropriate export licenses from the PNG government.

 

  -  6  -  
     

 

We are not dependent on any principal suppliers and our timber materials are produced principally through our logging activities. There are number of principal customers that we are focused on with the domestic market in PNG. We have established that customer base over the last 12 months and the company is now concentrating on formalizing supply agreements to those customers.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Intellectual property is not a large part of our current business model as we are selling non-unique materials through primarily conventional channels. One or more brands may yet be developed if we determine branding will benefit the Company.

 

Government Regulations

 

Our products and services are subject to foreign, federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations concerning business activities in general, including the laws of Papua New Guinea and Australia. Our operations will be affected from time to time in varying degrees by domestic and foreign political developments, foreign, federal and state laws.

 

Aqua Mining

 

As the 90% owner of Aqua Mining [PNG] Limited, a Papua, New Guinea company, we are required to obtain approval from the Investment Promotion Authority of Papua New Guinea to be recognized as a foreign investor for our mineral exploration joint venture with the Leaseholders of approximately 26 hectares located at Koranga in Wau, Morobe Province, Papua, New Guinea.

 

On July 24, 2015, we received final approval from the Papua New Guinea Department of Environment and Conservation, the Papua New Guinea Mining Resources Authority and the Mining Advisory Committee. This approval allows for mechanized processing on land controlled by the Koranga Joint Venture for a period of 20 years and Aqua Mining is the licensed contract miner for a period of 5 years. This AML license is limited to 50,000 tones of processing per year and to a maximum of 5-hectares of mining at any one time. We must report our exploration activities and sales monthly to the Mining Resource Authority and comply with the terms of the agreements with the landowners. The tribute agreement for this land requires contribution of 2% of gross sales over 3 grams of ton and 2% of gross sales when under 5 grams per ton.

 

Environmental Regulations :

 

Under our Alluvial Mining Lease, we must comply with the provisions of the Mining Act pertaining to Environmental requirements. We are subject to applicable environmental legislation including specific site conditions attached to the mining tenements imposed by the PNG Government Department of Environment and Conservation (“DEC”), the terms and conditions of operating licenses issued by the PNG Mineral Resources Authority (“MRA”) and DEC, and the environment permits for water extraction and waste discharge issued by DEC. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the PNG Parliament approved a name change for the Department of Environment and Conservation to the Conservation Environment Protection Authority and that change has become effective.

 

Under our Logging TA, we must comply with the provisions of the Forestry Act 1991 pertaining to Environmental requirements. We are subject to applicable environmental legislation including specific site conditions attached to the Logging TA imposed by the PNG Government Department of Environment and Conservation (“DEC”), the terms and conditions of operating licenses issued by the PNG Forest Authority (“FA”) and DEC, and the environment permits for water extraction and waste discharge issued by DEC. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the PNG Parliament approved a name change for the Department of Environment and Conservation to the Conservation Environment Protection Authority and that change has become effective.

1. The Koranga Joint Venture properties located in Papua, New Guinea :

 

Description and Location of the Leases

 

The Company does not own or lease any of the mining properties directly and we have no right to acquire a lease or license for the Koranga properties. Rather titles are held by the landowners who were given the properties covered by the mining leases by the Papua, New Guinea government from 1966 to 1968. The Company has the right to manage and finance the exploration of each mining license pursuant to a Joint Venture Agreement with each of the landowners. As part of that agreement, the Company is entitled to 70% of the net profits from mineral exploration and any production. The mining licenses included in the Koranga Joint Venture are: ML296, ML297, ML298, ML299, ML300 and ML301.

 

Our conversion application for Mining Lease Nos. ML 296 through ML 301 was approved on July 24, 2015. The permit requires payment of K6440.96 (approximately $2,329 U.S. Dollars) within 30 days. This fee is comprised of a Security Deposit, a Tribute Agreement Fee, and rent through July 23, 2015. Furthermore, the permit holder must carry out works associated with the mining activity in accordance with the plans and specifications in the environment permit. Such requirements include nominal monetary payments, development of an environmental management plan, a waste management plan, water extraction plan, monitoring and reporting.

Exploration History

 

The historic alluvial mining activities for the Koranga leases was previously undertaken by New Guinea Gold Ltd. from 1935 to 1942, by Koranga Aluvial Mining Ltd. from 1943 to 1944, and by Koranga Westland Ltd. from 2008 to 2011. Koranga Westland Ltd.’s results were follows:

 

The results were produced by utilizing day and night shifts each day. Available production data collected over two years shows the following:

 

1. An average of 75 cubic meters of materials was processed per shift. However, records from Koranga Westland Ltd. show that without breakdowns, 130-50 cubic meters could be processed in a shift period.

 

2. The gold grade of the material ranges between 0.1g and 5 grams per cubic meter and averages around 0.6grams per cubic meter. Raw weight is around 0.92grams per cubic meter.

 

3. Fineness of the alluvial gold from the lease area is between 58% and 65%, and at times higher.

 

4. A total of 55,300 cubic meters of mined material was processed to extract 51,000 grams of gold – raw weight (approximately 31kg pure gold) over the two years of mining activities, during the period from 2008 to 2011.

 

5. The mined material is comprised both of conglomerates and interbedded conglomerate, siltstone, sandstone and mudstones.

 

6. The mined material was rare to weakly lithified, free digging, poorly consolidated with rock clasts dislodging easily.

 

7. Only sluice boxes were used to capture the concentrates. The recovery was 80% during the period from 2008 to 2011.

 

All production data was recorded in a computer on site. A summary of the production data is given in Table 001 below

Koranga Westland Ltd. ceased production in 2011 due to capital constraints.

 

The Company does not plan to undertake any exploration and/or development of the property. The property is split by the Koranga creek with sedimentary deposits running through the creek and side walls with visible gold strata’s. The exploration activities will be alluvial mining and to that nature will be open pit. The present condition of the property is an open area with a river running through the center of the mining leases.

 

The equipment used is new, the modernization is basic as the type of mining at this stage is sluice boxes and pressure hoses. The current mining lease only allows for non-mechanized processing. The current cost of equipment is approximately $150,000 and if and when we move to mechanized processing, we estimate the cost of equipment to be in excess of $1,000,000.

 

There has been no annual production of minerals to report for the Koranga Joint Venture properties for fiscal years 2016 and 2015.

 

Geology

 

The tectonic feature that hosts the project site and may have been influential in creating an environment conducive for the alluvial gold deposit is the Bulolo graben. It is bounded on the East and West by sub parallel Northwest trending transfer structures while bounded by Northeast trending transfer structures on the North and South. The Northwest trending structures and the subsidiary fractures have accommodated much of the mineralization and have controlled a series of intrusions. The basement rock of the area is metamorphics, intruded by Miocene granodiorite, and believed to be the source of high fineness gold mineralization in the area. A serious of other intrusions occurred, giving rise to further mineralization which is believed to have contributed to much of the prospects in the project area. These intrusions where associated with volcanism that resulted in blocking off of the Bulolo River and consequently the formation of the gold bearing sequence.

 

Otibanda Formation

 

The Otibanda Formation is the target alluvial gold bearing sedimentary sequence. It is a lacustrine sequence that was deposited in a fresh water lake. Mapping shows the apparent thickness of the sequence to be 700m and is alluvial gold bearing. The sequence is comprised of interbedded agglomerates, sandstones, siltstones and intercalated thin mudstone. The deposit is the result of an eruptive volcanism that blocked off the Bulolo River resulting in blockage and setting up of a fresh water lake. All sediments including gold shedding off from the surrounding hills and mountains were deposited into the lake. The enriched sequence is the source of gold for the miners down creek and our target in this project.

 

Proven or probable reserves have not been established.

 

The Koranga property has been physically inspected by Ken Unamba, a professional geologist, but a formal feasibility study for the property has not been prepared. Furthermore, there are no current detailed plans to conduct exploration on the property, nor are any phased programs planned.

 

Exploration work will be performed and/or supervised by Mr. Ken Unamba, a geologist and member of our advisory committee. Mr. Unamba has a Science Degree majoring in Geology. His 22 years’ work experience covers Exploration Geologist for Tolukuma Gold Mine Ltd., Consulting Geologist for Harmony Gold SE Asia and Filmena Resources Corp Philippines. He was appointed to the then Mining Advisory Board in 2000 for five years as Technical Advisor.

 

Our exploration budget for Aqua Mining is $200,000, including geophysics, sampling and exploration labor.

 

At this time, we are uncertain how our exploration work will be funded.

 

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

We are currently in litigation with Alexander King (“King”) and other defendants regarding the Company’s ownership of Angel Jade. The action was commenced by the Company on September 12, 2016, in the Supreme Court of Victoria (Australia) as Case No. S ECI 2016 01205, In the matter of Angel Jade Pty Ltd (ACN 146 720 578). The Principal parties are Kibush Capital, Angel Jade, New Century, 4K Nominees and Alexander King.

 

  -  10  -  
     

 

In September 2014 Angel Jade was owned 50% by the King and 50% by Five Arrows. Alexander King and Warren Sheppard were the sole directors. In October of 2014, Five Arrows transferred its shares in Angel Jade to the Company. On October 8, 2014, Angel Jade issued an additional 1% of its shares to Kibush resulting in Angel Jade being held 49% by King (90,000,000 shares) and 51% by Kibush Capital (93,673,470 shares). On November 6, 2014, King agreed to sell Kibush Capital 18,367,350 shares in Angel Jade for the sum of $100,000 of which King has been paid $25,000, resulting in the shares in Angel Jade being held by King 71,632,650, and by Kibush Capital 112,040,720. The agreement is recorded in a document headed ’Share Purchase Form’ dated November 6, 2014. On 6 November 2014 Angel Jade agreed to issue 45,918,375 shares to Kibush Capital for the price of $250,000 of which Kibush Capital has paid $67,358.19, resulting in the shares in Angel Jade being held by King 71,632,650, and by Kibush Capital 157,959,195. The transaction is recorded in the Minutes of a Meeting of Directors of Angel Jade signed by King dated November 6, 2014. On or about November 12, 2015 the shareholding in Angel Jade was adjusted to 71,632,650 shares held by King (30%), and 157,959,195 shares held by Kibush Capital (70%), total issued number of shares in Angel Jade 229,591,845).

 

On or about May 5, 2016 and without his knowledge or consent, Warren Sheppard was removed as a director of Angel Jade. On or about May 5, 2016 and without the knowledge or consent of Warren Sheppard or Kibush Capital, the issued and outstanding shares in Angel Jade was reduced to 200,001,000. On or about May 5, 2016 and without the knowledge or consent of Kibush Capital or Warren Sheppard, the shareholder records of Angel Jade were altered to show ownership of Angel Jade as follows:

 

  New Century   90,000,000 shares;
  4K Nominees   90,000,000 shares;
  Five Arrows   500 shares;
  Fourth Defendant   20,000,000 shares, and
  King holding   500 shares

 

The Company claims that King’s alteration of the directors and ownership of Angel Jade was oppressive to, unfairly prejudicial to, or unfairly discriminatory against Kibush Capital contrary to section 232 of the Corporations Act 2010. The Company is seeking a declaration that the Kibush Capital is entitled to 70% of the issued shares of the First Defendant; or in the alternative, a declaration that Kibush Capital is entitled to 51% of the issued shares of Angel Jade; damages equal to the $67,358.19 paid to Angel Jade and damages of the $ paid to King. However, there remains a possibility that the litigation may be settled prior to adjudication by the Court.

 

We are not presently a party to any other litigation.

Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

 

Our company’s shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market.

 

Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as “bid” and “offer” quotes, a dealers “spread” and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the FINRA’s toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons.

ITEM 6.   SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. You should read this analysis in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes and our unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and their notes. This discussion and analysis contains statements of a forward-looking nature relating to future events or our future financial performance. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend” and “plan” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made. Such statements are only predictions, and actual events or results may differ materially.

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

 

● have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
   
● comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);
   
● submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and
   
● disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation

.

  -  13  -  
     

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2016 (this “Report”). This report contains certain forward-looking statements and our future operating results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Certain statements including, without limitation, statements containing the words “believes”, “anticipates,” “expects” and the like, constitute “forward-looking statements”. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to announce publicly the results of any revisions of the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference herein to reflect future events or developments.

 

Plan of Operations

 

The Company’s current plan of operation is to continue and expand our logging operations and to refocus on mining activities after achieving sufficient cash flow from logging and timber sales.

 

The Company has spent considerable time and effort understanding and developing processes for our logging, processing and sale of finished products. The Company is now ready to deliver to the market place approximately 150 cubic meters of processed timber for sale to both the wholesale and retail markets. We anticipate that the average sales revenue for processed timber will be approximately $750.00 per cubic meter.

 

Within the next 6 months, the Company plans to (1) acquire and place additional processing equipment in our new Timber yard at Laloki, and (2) acquire additional logging equipment to be deployed as required in Rigo and Kubuna. We have placed deposits on various processing equipment, but we may need to finance the balance of the processing equipment and the additional logging machinery. Once the additional logging and processing equipment is placed, we believe that our capacity will increase to approximately 500 cubic meters per month. Moreover, the new processing equipment will allow us to customize our products to specific customer requirements and offer additional value added timber products, which should help the Company increase profit margins on its timber sales.

 

With current operations at Rigo and Kubuna, we are optimistic that we can sell an average quantity of 300 cubic meters of timber per month by March of 2017. To support this target, we plan to develop export markets for our finished timber products to avoid relying too heavily on sales to any one region, diversify our customer base and build a more stable sales market. In addition to Rigo and Kubuna, we are investigating additional areas in PNG for potential timber operations to support our projected volume for the next 3 years.

 

Once we have sustainable excess profits from our logging activities, we plan to renew our mining exploration efforts at Wau. That project needs considerable additional capital to commence any substantial revenue producing activities. At this time, the Company plans to self-fund the mining exploration at Wau with anticipated revenues from its timber operations rather than utilizing third party financing. We anticipate renewed exploration activities at Wau during our 2017 fiscal year.

Results of Operations

 

For the year ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015

 

Revenues

 

The Company had $141,187 in revenue for the year ended September 30, 2016 and $32,000; for the year ended September 30, 2015. The increase in revenue of $109,187 is attributable to the sale of timber under the management agreement with Paradise Gardens.

 

Operating expenses

 

The Company had operating expenses of $ 899,982 for the year ended September 30, 2016 consisting of general and administrative expenses, as compared with operating expenses of $1,121,574 for the year ended September 30, 2015 consisting of general and administrative expenses. The decrease of $221,592 was attributable to the Company focusing primarily on its Logging Operations, a decrease in expenditure on the Koranga Gold Leases, and a decrease in the cost of the derivative financing.

 

Net Loss

 

The Company had a net operating loss of $1,301,909 for the year ended September 30, 2016 compared with a net operating loss of $1,290,613 for the year ended September 30, 2015. The decrease of $11,296 was primarily attributable to the improved revenues from the logging operations and a decrease in expenditure at Koranga.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $419,812 for the year ended September 30, 2016 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $925,854 for the year ended September 30, 2015. The decrease of $506,042 was a result improved revenue from the logging operations and a decrease in expenditure on the infrastructure at Koranga.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $92,086 for the year ended September 30, 2016 compared to $17,050 for the year ended September 30, 2015. This increase resulted from the acquisition of Plant and Equipment for the logging operations.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $317,184 for the year ended September 30, 2016 compared to $809,414 for the year ended September 30, 2015. The decrease of $492,230 was mainly due to a decrease in the cost of derivative financing.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2016, the Company had total current assets of $25,221 and total current liabilities of $3,099,080 resulting in a working capital deficit of $3,073,859. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had total current assets of $10,763 and total current liabilities of $1,923,195 resulting in a working capital deficit of $1,912,432. The decrease in working capital deficit arose mainly due to increase in loans owing to related parties, who provided advances to the Company for working capital purposes. The Company had cash as of September 30, 2016 of $221. The Company intends to fund its exploration through the revenues from the logging activities and the sale of its equity securities. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful doing so. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. We currently believe that the Company will need approximately $2,000,000 over the next 12 months to implement our desired expansion of mining activities and logging activities.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company is in the development stage and has insufficient revenues to cover its operating costs. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $12,288,586 and a working capital deficiency and insufficient cash resources to meet its planned business objectives. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan for our continued existence includes selling additional stock through private placements and borrowing additional funds to pay overhead expenses while maintaining marketing efforts to raise our sales volume. Our future success is dependent upon our ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of common stock or borrow additional funds. Our inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

  -  15  -  
     

 

We have only had operating losses which raise substantial doubts about our viability to continue our business and our auditors have issued an opinion expressing the uncertainty of our Company to continue as a going concern. If we are not able to continue operations, investors could lose their entire investment in our Company.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

The Company is not party to any contractual obligations other than indicated in Notes 5 and 6.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than as described above.

 

We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Kibush Capital Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kibush Capital Corporation as of September 30, 2016, and 2015, and the consolidated related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2016. Kibush Capital Corporation’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Kibush Capital Corporation as of September 30, 2016, and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations the past two years. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

KIBUSH CAPITAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Business

 

Kibush Capital Corporation (formerly David Loren Corporation) (the “Company”) includes its 90% owned subsidiary Aqua Mining (PNG). See Basis of Presentation below. The Company has two primary businesses: (i) mining exploration within Aqua Mining, and (ii) timber operations in Papua New Guinea by Aqua Mining.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company, and all entities in which a direct or indirect controlling interest exists through voting rights or qualifying variable interests. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Change in Fiscal Year End

 

The Board of Directors of the Company approved on September 14, 2014, a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31 to September 30 of each year.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As at September 30, 2015, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $10,986,677 and $12,288,586. as of September 30, 2016, and has not earned sufficient revenues to cover operating costs since inception and has a working capital deficit. The Company intends to fund its mining exploration through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year.

 

The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage is dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to continue mining exploration and execution of its business plan. In response to these problems, management intends to raise additional funds through public or private placement offerings.

 

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Functional and Reporting Currency

 

The consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. The functional currency of Aqua Mining is the Papua New Guinean kina. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate on the respective balance sheet dates. Items in the income statement and cash flow statement are translated into U.S. Dollars using the average rates of exchange for the periods involved. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income/(loss) within stockholders’ equity.

 

The functional currency of foreign entities is generally the local currency unless the primary economic environment requires the use of another currency. Gains or losses arising from the translation or settlement of foreign-currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities into the functional currency are recognized in the income in the period in which they arise. However, currency differences on intercompany loans that have the nature of a permanent investment are accounted for as translation differences as a separate component of other comprehensive income/(loss) within stockholders’ equity.

 

  -  22  -  
     

  

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of the principal accounting policies are set out below:

 

Cash

 

The Company maintains its cash balances in interest and non-interest bearing accounts which do not exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kibush Capital and Aqua Mining. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Other Comprehensive Income and Foreign Currency Translation

 

FASB ASC 220-10-05, Comprehensive Income , establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distribution to owners.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars.

 

Reclassifications

 

Reclassifications have been made to prior year consolidated financial statements in order to conform the presentation to the statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2014.

 

On June 10, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915) – Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation , which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity (DSE) in its entirety from current accounting guidance. The Company has elected early adoption of this new standard.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management are, recoverability of long-lived assets, valuation and useful lives of intangible assets, valuation of derivative liabilities, and valuation of common stock, options, warrants and deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

Investments in associated companies over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the consolidation method, after appropriate adjustments for intercompany profits and dividends.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.” It requires an acquirer to recognize, at the acquisition date, the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their full fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages (step acquisitions), the acquirer will be required to re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings. The acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs will no longer be included as part of the capitalized cost of the acquired entity but will be required to be accounted for separately in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles. U.S. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.

 

A non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in a consolidated entity that is reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the Company’s equity. In addition, net income/(loss) attributable to non-controlling interests is reported separately from net income attributable to the Company in the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s consolidated statements present the full amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses of all of our consolidated subsidiaries, with a partially offsetting amount shown in non-controlling interests for the portion of these assets and liabilities that are not controlled by us.

 

  -  23  -  
     

  

For our investments in affiliated entities that are included in the consolidation, the excess cost over underlying fair value of net assets is referred to as goodwill and reported separately as “Goodwill” in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Goodwill may only arise where consideration has been paid.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows:

 

  Plant equipment 2 to 15 years  
  Computer and software 1 to 2 years  
  Office equipment 3 to 10 years  
  Building improvements 20 years  

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Renewals and improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or losses are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-5, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets , the Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such carrying values may not be recoverable. The Company uses its best judgment based on the current facts and circumstances relating to its business when determining whether any significant impairment factors exist. The Company considers the following factors or conditions, among others, that could indicate the need for an impairment review:

 

● Significant under performance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
   
● Significant changes in its strategic business objectives and utilization of the assets;
   
● Significant negative industry or economic trends, including legal factors;

 

If the Company determines that the carrying values of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company’s management performs an undiscounted cash flow analysis to determine if impairment exists. If impairment exists, the Company measures the impairment based on the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and its fair value, and the impairment is charged to operations in the period in which the long-lived asset impairment is determined by management.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s investment in Joint Venture contract with leaseholders of certain Mining Leases in Papua New Guinea represents its ownership, accounted for under the equity method. The ownership interest is not adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis. Each reporting period the Company assesses the fair value of the Company’s ownership interest in Joint Venture in accordance with FASB ASC 325-20-35. Each year the Company conducts an impairment analysis in accordance with the provisions within FASB ASC 320-10-35 paragraphs 25 through 32.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments. The Company believes the carrying amount of its notes payable approximates its fair value based on rates and other terms currently available to the Company for similar debt instruments.

 

Beneficial Conversion Features of Debentures

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 470-20, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, we recognize the advantageous value of conversion rights attached to convertible debt. Such rights give the debt holder the ability to convert debt into common stock at a price per share that is less than the trading price to the public on the day the loan is made to us. The beneficial value is calculated as the intrinsic value (the market price of the stock at the commitment date in excess of the conversion rate) of the beneficial conversion feature of debentures and related accruing interest is recorded as a discount to the related debt and an addition to additional paid in capital. The discount is amortized over the remaining outstanding period of related debt using the interest method.

 

  -  24  -  
     

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We apply the provisions of FASB ASC 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-10”). Derivatives within the scope of ASC 815-10 must be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued convertible debt and recorded derivative liabilities related to a reset provision associated with the embedded conversion feature of the convertible debt. The Company computed the fair value of these derivative liabilities on the grant date and various measurement dates using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Due to the reset provisions within the embedded conversion feature, the Company determined that the Black-Scholes pricing model was the most appropriate for valuing these instruments.

 

In applying the Black-Scholes valuation model, the Company used the following assumptions during the year ended September 30, 2016:

 

      For the year ended September 30, 2016  
Annual dividend yield     -  
Expected life (years)     0.50 – 1.00  
Risk-free interest rate     0.03% — 0.13 %
Expected volatility     210.12. % —400.48 %

 

The inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market

 

data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

 

Level 1 — Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently, the Company does not have any items as Level 1.

 

Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Currently, the Company does not have any items classified as Level 2.

 

Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing models to determine the fair value of the instruments.

 

The following table presents the Company’s embedded conversion features of its convertible debt measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2015, and as of September 30, 2016:

 

    Carry Value at     Carry Value at  
    September 30, 2016     September 30, 2015  
Derivative liabilties:                
Embedded conversion features - notes   $ 890,568     $ 498,417  
                 
Total derivative liability   $ 890,568     $ 498,417  

 

    For the year ended     For the year ended  
    September 30, 2016     September 30, 2015  
Change in fair value included in other income (expense), net     -7,525       13,1044  

 

  -  25  -  
     

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the Company’s derivative liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs:

 

    For the year ended
September 30,2016 		    For the year ended
September 30, 2015 		 
Embedded Conversion                
Features - Notes:                
Balance at beginning of year   $ 498,417     $ 752,997  
Change in derivative liabilities   $ 399,676     $ (385,624 )
Net change in fair value included in net loss     (7,525 )     131,044  
Ending balance   $ 890,568     $ 498,417  

 

The Company re-measures the fair values of all its derivative liabilities as of each period end and records the net aggregate gain/loss due to the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities as a component of other expense, net in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. During the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded a net increase (decrease) to the fair value of derivative liabilities balance of $ (7,525) and $ 131,044, respectively.

 

Loss per Share

 

The Company applies FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include additional common shares available upon exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method, except for periods for which no common share equivalents are included because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future consequences of differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases (temporary differences). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are recovered or settled. Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets are established when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Mineral Property, Mineral Rights (Claims) Payments and Exploration Costs

 

Pursuant to EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets and Related Issues”, the Company has an accounting policy to capitalize the direct costs to acquire or lease mineral properties and mineral rights as tangible assets. The direct costs include the costs of signature (lease) bonuses, options to purchase or lease properties, and brokers’ and legal fees. If the acquired mineral rights relate to unproven properties, the Company does not amortize the capitalized mineral costs, but evaluates the capitalized mineral costs periodically for impairment. The Company expenses all costs related to the exploration of mineral claims in which it had secured exploration rights prior to establishment of proven and probable reserves.

 

  -  26  -  
     

 

Accounting Treatment of Mining Interests

 

At this time, the Company does not directly own or directly lease mining properties. However, the Company does have contractual rights and governmental permits which allow the Company to conduct mining exploration on the properties referenced in this report. These contractual relationships, coupled with the government permits issued to the Company (or a subsidiary), are substantially similar in nature to a mining lease. Therefore, we have treated these contracts as lease agreements from an accounting prospective.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. The Company incurred no research and development costs for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

New accounting standards

 

Development State Entities . In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-10 – Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASU 2014-10”). The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. For public business entities, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. For other entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015.

 

Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915.

 

The Company has early adopted ASU 2014-10 commencing with its financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014 and subsequent periods.

 

Accounting standards to be adopted in future periods

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) which provides guidance for accounting for revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

 

To achieve that core principle, an entity would be required to apply the following five steps: 1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted, FASB has delayed the revenue recognition effective date by one year December 31, 2017.

 

Entities will have the option to apply the final standard retrospectively or use a modified retrospective method, recognizing the cumulative effect of the ASU in retained earnings at the date of initial application. An entity will not restate prior periods if it uses the modified retrospective method, but will be required to disclose the amount by which each financial statement line item is affected in the current reporting period by the application of the ASU as compared to the guidance in effect prior to the change, as well as reasons for significant changes. The Company will adopt the updated standard in the first quarter of 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that implementing this ASU will have on its financial statements and disclosures, as well as whether it will use the retrospective or modified retrospective method of adoption.

 

Company management do not believe that the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note 1: On February 14, 2014, the Company entered into an Assignment and Bill of Sale with Five Arrows Limited (“Five Arrows”), a related party, pursuant to which Five Arrows agreed to assign to the Company all of its right, title and interest in two 50 ton per hour trammels, one 35 ton excavator, a warehouse/office, a concrete processing apron and four 35 ton per hour particle concentrators for use in our mining exploration. In consideration, the Company issued 40,000,000 shares of its common stock to Five Arrows. On February 28, 2014, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with the holders of alluvial gold mining leases (“Leaseholders”) of Mining Leases covering approximately 26 hectares located at Koranga in Wau, Morobe Province, Papua, New Guinea for gold mining exploration (“Joint Venture Agreement”). The Joint Venture Agreement entitles the leaseholders to 30% and the Company to 70% of net profits from the joint venture. The Company will manage and carry out mining exploration at the site, including entering into contracts with third parties and subcontractors (giving priority to the Leaseholders and their relatives and the local community for employment opportunities and spin-off business) at its cost, and all assets, including equipment and structures built on the site, will be the property of the Company. The Leaseholders and the Company will each contribute 1% from their share of net profits to a trust account for landowner and government requirements.

 

On July 27, 2015, we recently received a 5-year extension for our Mining Lease of ML 296-301 from the Mining Resource Authority in Papua New Guinea. ML 296-301 is part of the Koranga Joint Venture and is controlled by our subsidiary Aqua Mining.

 

The Company’s former subsidiary, Angel Jade has been deconsolidated in accordance with ASC 810-10-40-4A since the Company’s ownership and control of Angel Jade was terminated by Angel Jade during 2016 – See Note 11. According to the records of Angel Jade, the Company held no ownership interest in Angel Jade as of September 30, 2016. As such, the Company has written off Angel Jade and removed it from this report. We have also removed the Angel Jade financial data from the 2015 fiscal year for financial comparison purposes.

 

NOTE 11 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are currently in litigation with Alexander King (“King”) and other defendants regarding the Company’s ownership of Angel Jade. The action was commenced by the Company on September 12, 2016, in the Supreme Court of Victoria (Australia) as Case No. S ECI 2016 01205, In the matter of Angel Jade Pty Ltd (ACN 146 720 578). The Principal parties are Kibush Capital, Angel Jade, New Century, 4K Nominees and Alexander King.

 

In September 2014 Angel Jade was owned 50% by the King and 50% by Five Arrows. Alexander King and Warren Sheppard were the sole directors. In October of 2014, Five Arrows transferred its shares in Angel Jade to the Company. On October 8, 2014, Angel Jade issued an additional 1% of its shares to Kibush resulting in Angel Jade being held 49% by King (90,000,000 shares) and 51% by Kibush Capital (93,673,470 shares). On November 6, 2014, King agreed to sell Kibush Capital 18,367,350 shares in Angel Jade for the sum of $100,000 of which King has been paid $25,000, resulting in the shares in Angel Jade being held by King 71,632,650, and by Kibush Capital 112,040,720. The agreement is recorded in a document headed ‘Share Purchase Form’ dated November 6, 2014. On 6 November 2014 Angel Jade agreed to issue 45,918,375 shares to Kibush Capital for the price of $250,000 of which Kibush Capital has paid $67,358.19, resulting in the shares in Angel Jade being held by King 71,632,650, and by Kibush Capital 157,959,195. The transaction is recorded in the Minutes of a Meeting of Directors of Angel Jade signed by King dated November 6, 2014. On or about November 12, 2015 the shareholding in Angel Jade was adjusted to 71,632,650 shares held by King (30%), and 157,959,195 shares held by Kibush Capital (70%), total issued number of shares in Angel Jade 229,591,845).

  -  34  -  
     

 

On or about May 5, 2016 and without his knowledge or consent, Warren Sheppard was removed as a director of Angel Jade. On or about May 5, 2016 and without the knowledge or consent of Warren Sheppard or Kibush Capital, the issued and outstanding shares in Angel Jade was reduced to 200,001,000. On or about May 5, 2016 and without the knowledge or consent of Kibush Capital or Warren Sheppard, the shareholder records of Angel Jade were altered to show ownership of Angel Jade as follows:

 

  ● New Century   90,000,000 shares;
         
  ● 4K Nominees   90,000,000 shares;
         
  ● Five Arrows   500 shares;
         
  ● Fourth Defendant   20,000,000 shares, and
         
  ● King holding   500 shares.

 

The Company claims that King’s alteration of the directors and ownership of Angel Jade was oppressive to, unfairly prejudicial to, or unfairly discriminatory against Kibush Capital contrary to section 232 of the Corporations Act 2010. The Company is seeking a declaration that the Kibush Capital is entitled to 70% of the issued shares of the First Defendant; or in the alternative, a declaration that Kibush Capital is entitled to 51% of the issued shares of Angel Jade; damages equal to the $67,358.19 paid to Angel Jade and damages of the $ paid to King. However, there remains a possibility that the litigation may be settled prior to adjudication by the Court.

 

As a result of the removal of the Company as an owner of Angel Jade, the Company has written off Angel Jade and removed it from the financial statements. The Company has also restated its 2015 fiscal year financial data with regard to Angel Jade.

 

The Company does not believe that a resulting liability is likely from this litigation. However, the Company has not been in control of Angel Jade or had access to its books and records for more than 8 months. It is likely that Angel Jade has incurred liabilities during that time. While it is not likely that any unknown liabilities of Angel Jade could impact the Company directly, they could impact the Company if the Company reacquires ownership of Angel Jade through its lawsuit. In the event the Company re-acquires a material interest in Angel Jade, it will restate its financial statements accordingly.

 

NOTE 12 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES There is a potential for liabilities to exist that we do not yet know about regarding the Angel Jade deconsolidation and we have no way to measure any such potential liability at this time.

 

NOTE 13 - DECONSOLIDATION OF SUBSIDIARY

 

As of May 5, 2016, the Company had no power to govern the financial and operating policies of Angel Jade due to the loss of power to cast the majority of votes at meetings of the Board of Directors; accordingly, the Company derecognized related assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests of Angel Jade.

 

Consideration Received

 

The Company did not receive any consideration in the deconsolidation of Angel Jade.

NOTE 14 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

The Company’s former subsidiary, Angel Jade has been deconsolidated in accordance with ASC 810-10-40-4A since the Company’s ownership and control of Angel Jade was terminated by Angel Jade during 2016 – See Note 11. According to the records of Angel Jade, the Company held no ownership interest in Angel Jade as of September 30, 2016. As such, the Company has treated Angel Jade as a discontinued operation and accordingly, the Company’s financial statements have been prepared with the assets, liabilities, results of operations, and cash flows of this business displayed separately. For fiscal years 2016 and 2015, the Company estimated a net loss from discontinued operations of $107,377 and $122,092, respectively.

During the two most recent fiscal years, and through the date of our Scudato’s dismissal, there were no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures between the Company and Scrudato.

 

Our financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2016, included in this report, have been audited by DLL CPAS LLC. There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures with DLL CPAS LLC through the date of this Form 10-K.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.

 

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

  -  37  -  
     

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. 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 a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

As of September 30, 2016, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below:

 

1.

We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

   
2.

The Company’s board of directors has no audit committee, independent director or member with financial expertise which causes ineffective oversight of the Company’s external financial reporting and internal control over financial reporting.

   
3. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

Due to these factors, during the period covered by this report, our internal controls and procedures may not be effective to detect a material misstatement. The lack of a functioning audit committee, the lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions, and the lack of multiple directors on our board of directors may result 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.

 

The Company plans to add additional directors, add accounting personnel and establish an audit committee over time, once it has sufficient income and cash flow to make those changes.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm because we are a smaller reporting company.

 

CEO and CFO Certifications

 

Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this report there is Certification of our CEO/CFO. The Certification is required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This Item of this report, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended September 30, 2016 that have affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us during our most recent fiscal year, to the best of our knowledge, all executive officers, directors and persons holding greater than 10% of our issued and outstanding stock have filed the required reports in a timely manner during our 2016 fiscal year.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

At this time, we are not subject to the listing requirements of any national securities exchange or national securities association and, as a result, we are not required to have our board comprised of a majority of “independent directors.” Furthermore, we do not believe that our director currently meets the definition of “independent” as promulgated by the rules and regulations of the NYSE Alternext US (formerly known as the American Stock Exchange).

 

We currently have one director who is also our chief executive. We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, and the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our Board of Directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, in essence their own, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.

 

Audit Committee

 

We have no separately-designated audit committee. Audit committee functions are performed by our board of directors. None of our directors are deemed independent. All directors also hold positions as our officers. Our board of directors is responsible for: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; and (4) engaging outside advisors. Moreover, our Board of Directors has not established compensation or disclosure committees.

 

Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a corporate code of ethics. We believe our code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code.

Indemnification

 

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) provide that our directors and officers be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with services for us or on our behalf except for (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or (ii the payment of dividends in violation of Nevada law. Our Articles also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in this capacity. Our Articles provide that we will advance all expenses incurred to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts should it be ultimately determined that the person was not entitled to be indemnified under our Articles or otherwise.

 

Our Bylaws provide that our directors and officers be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with services for us or on our behalf except that there shall be no indemnification if a person is adjudged liable to the Company unless and to the extent that despite such adjudication, the court determines that such person is entitled to indemnity or determined by the majority of directors, independent legal counsel or the stockholders.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted by directors, executive officers or persons controlling us, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

 

 

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

 

The following table lists, as of January 15, 2017: (i) each person or entity known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock or preferred stock; (ii) each of our named executive officers and directors; and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of the Company’s stock by our principal stockholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership” concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

 

The percentages below are calculated based on 476,392,976 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of January 15, 2017 and 8,000,000 shares of our preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the same date.

(1) Richard N. Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of Five Arrows Limited (“Five Arrows”) has voting and investment power over the shares held by Five Arrows. However, Mr. Sheppard, as the sole shareholder of Five Arrows, has the ability to influence or control the voting of such shares.

 

(2) More Superannuation Fund (“More”) is controlled by Warren Sheppard. More owns all of the 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and oustanding as well as 298,503 shares of Common Stock. More controls 60,298,503 votes, 298,503 from common stock and 60,000,000 from its preferred stock which votes with common stock at 20:1.

 

(3) Warren Sheppard directly owns 3,001,702 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Sheppard holds in notes that are convertible in to 1,510,630,000 shares of common stock based upon the January 17, 2017 closing price, but those shares are excluded from this calculation as they could not be converted into common stock at this time due to the current number of authorized shares. In addition, Mr. Sheppard controls Five Arrows Limited and More Superannuation Fund through which he indirectly owns an additional 64,298,503 shares of common stock. Therefore, Mr. Sheppard’s total beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock is 67,001,702 shares. In addition to Mr. Sheppard’s ownership of commmon stock, he owns 5,000,0000 shares of Class B Preferred Stock directly and 3,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock indirectly. Class A Preferred votes with common stock at a ratio of 20 to 1 and Class B Preferrred votes with common stock at a ratio of 100 to 1. Including the voting power provided in through the Company’s Preferred Stock, Mr. Sheppard holds approximately 54.7% of the Company’s voting power. These calculations exclude any shares of common stock to which Mr. Sheppard may earn after September 30, 2016 pursuant to his employment agreement with the Company; should the Company have insufficient funds to pay Mr. Sheppard’s salary, in an amount equal to three times the amount of unpaid base salary and shares in the amount of $150,000 upon the acquisition of a subsidiary or business valued at greater than $1,000,000 as a bonus.

 

The Company does not have any change-in-control agreements with its executive officer nor know of any arrangements which may result in a change of control of the Company.

Director Independence
