LIVINGVENTURES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(FORMERLY KNOWN AS GREEN GLOBAL INVESTMENTS, INC.)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION


(A)

Organization


LivingVentures, Inc. ("LV"), formerly known as Green Global Investments (“GGI”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on December 17, 1999. LV was originally organized to provide business services and financing to emerging growth entities involved in energy projects, and later redirected its business focus to market and to distribute energy-efficient products in China.


GGI (Asia) Limited (“GGIA”), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of LV, formerly known as C B Resources Limited (“CBRL”), was incorporated on July 6, 2010 under the laws of Hong Kong, China. The company was organized to build critical strategic relationships in the Asian capital markets, which will, in turn, provide funding for future investment projects to be undertaken by the Company. Management de-registered GGIA in December 2013.


CommerCenters, LLC (“CC”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on September 6, 2007. CC was a fully integrated, real estate investment and development firm, headquartered in Orlando, Florida, with clients and joint venture partners in properties located principally in Central Florida. CC was a wholly owned subsidiary of LV. The Company sold this entity on July 11, 2013 as more fully explained in NOTE 5 to the financial statements.


CommerCenters EB5 Regional Center Investments, LLC (“CCEB”), d/b/a Orlando EB5 Investments, is a Florida Limited Liability Company formed in 2009 as a 50%-owned subsidiary of CC. Orlando EB5 Investments was formed with the purpose of operating as a Regional Center through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service’s EB5 program. The EB5 program was established to act as an incentive for foreign investors to invest in business opportunities in the U.S.A. by granting the foreign investor a conditional visa upon investment, and a permanent visa if the underlying investment results in the creation of ten jobs within the U.S.A. The Company is no longer involved in CCEB as it sold its interest on July 11, 2013 as more fully explained in NOTE 5 to the financial statements.


LivingVentures Management, LLC (“LVM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of LV, was formed on March 22, 2012 as a Florida limited company. The company was formed for the carrying out of the operations of property and facility management. The initial phase of operations was implemented through collaborating with other business partners, until the acquisitions of ICMS Canada and US were completed.


LivingVentures Development, LLC (“LVD”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CC, was formed on June 29, 2012, as a Florida limited company. It is involved in the development of assisted living and other real estate projects.


2040177 Ontario Limited (“ICMS-Canada”), a 90% owned subsidiary of LV, was formed on January 30, 2004 as an Ontario corporation in Canada. The company was formed for the carrying out of the operations of property and facility management under the trade name of “International Care Management Services” (“ICMS”) and was acquired on September 12, 2012.


International Care Management Services Ltd. (“ICMS-US”), a 90% owned subsidiary of LV, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on September 5, 2002. This company was acquired on September 12, 2012 and continued its operations under the trade name of “LivingVentures Management.”

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 


Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading and in conformity with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for an entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s financial statements as filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.


(C)

Basis of Presentation


The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LV, GGIA, CC, CCEB, LVM, LVD, ICMS-Canada, and ICMS-US. For the periods presented, GGIA did not have any business transactions recorded. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.


(D)

Use of Estimates


In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


(E)

Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.


(F)

Bank in Trust and Trust Funds Held


Cash funds held and controlled on behalf of customers/owners of certain facilities managed by the Company are classified as both an asset (Bank in Trust) and liability (Trust Funds Held) in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.


(G)

Accounts Receivable


The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated credit risk by actively pursuing past due accounts. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts provided as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.


(H)

Long-Lived Assets


In accordance with the ASC 360-10, “Property, Plant, And Equipment” , the Company reviews long-lived assets for

impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the Company determines that the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected from the asset’s use and eventual disposal is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment charge is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. The Company did not experience any impairment losses on its long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.


(I)

Goodwill


Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of the acquired net assets. In accordance with ASC 350-20, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is not amortized, but is evaluated annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future cash flows and operating plans. The Company determined that no impairment of goodwill was incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 


(J)

Concentrations of Credit Risk


Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and trade receivables. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions. At times such amounts may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such account and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on the account. With respect to the trade receivables, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. Actual losses and allowances, if any, have historically been within management’s expectations.


(K)

Earnings (Loss) per Share


Basic and diluted net earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by FASB ASC Topic 260 "Earnings per Share." As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, those securities that were common stock equivalents were not considered in computing basic and diluted earnings per share because of their antidilutive effect.  


(L)

Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes”. Under Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Topic 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.


(M)

Property and Equipment


The Company values its property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using the straight-line method over their expected useful lives ranging from three to seven years.


(N)

Business Segments


The Company has determined that it has two reporting segments for management purposes. One segment is property and facility management and services; the second is real estate investment and development.


(O)

Revenue Recognition


The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” and  No. 104, “Revenue Recognition". In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.


(P)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


No recent accounting pronouncements that affect the Company were issued. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.


(Q)

Financial Statement Reclassifications


Certain items in the Company’s 2013 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s 2014 financial statement presentation format.  The reclassifications did not have a material effect on the financial statements.

NOTE 2.

ACQUISITIONS


On March 5, 2012, LV entered into and closed a Membership Interest and Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with CC, pursuant to which, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding units of CC from its members. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company paid the selling members of CC by issuing the members 24,580,000 of its common shares.


The fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:


Fair value of 24,580,000 shares issued

 

$

307,250


In addition, 946,330 shares were issued to a board member as compensation for completing the transaction.


On July 11, 2013 the Company sold its interest in CC to related parties discussed in NOTE 6.


On September 12, 2012, LV entered into and closed the following two contracts with Mr. David B. Edwards, who was the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of stock of ICMS-Canada and ICMS-US:


Stock Exchange Agreement - under the terms and conditions of this agreement, GGI acquired 90% of the capital stock of ICMS-US from Mr. David Edwards. In exchange for the 90% capital stock of ICMS-US, LV issued 7,315,000 of its common shares to Mr. Edwards.


The fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:


 

Fair value of 7,315,000 shares issued

 

$

1,097,250


Stock Purchase Agreement - under the terms and conditions of this agreement, GGI acquired 1,100 of the total 1,223 shares of issued and outstanding voting common stock of ICMS-Canada from Mr. David Edwards for a cash purchase price of US$250,000.


The Company recorded the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the consideration transferred over the aggregate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The amount of goodwill recognized is primarily attributable to the operating synergies and business expansion expected to be realized through the acquisitions of CC, ICMS-Canada, ICMS-US and the business expertise of the acquired businesses. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired was based on estimates and assumptions made by the management.

After the acquisitions and the sale of CCRE, the Company has determined that it has two reportable segments, one of property and facility management; and the other of real estate investment and development. Both of the two segmental operations were acquired in 2012, and revenue and other information for these segments are presented by grouping similar products and services.

Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or non-qualified options. In addition, the plan allows for the inclusion of a reload option provision, which permits an eligible person to pay the exercise price of the option with shares of common stock owned by the eligible person and receive a new option to purchase shares of common stock equal in number to the tendered shares. Furthermore, compensatory stock amounts may also be issued. Any incentive option granted under the plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The term of each plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the board of directors or the committee, provided that no option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. During the six months ended  June 30, 2014 and 2013 we did not grant any options under the plan, nor were there any options outstanding as of  June 30, 2014 and 2013.


Eligibility


Our officers, directors, key employees and consultants are eligible to receive stock grants and non-qualified options under the plan. Only our employees are eligible to receive incentive options.


Administration


The plan will be administered by our board of directors or an underlying committee. The board of directors or the committee determines from time to time those of our officers, directors, key employees and consultants to whom stock grants or plan options are to be granted, the terms and provisions of the respective option agreements, the time or times at which such options shall be granted, the type of options to be granted, the dates such plan options become exercisable, the number of shares subject to each option, the purchase price of such shares and the form of payment of such purchase price. All other questions relating to the administration of the plan, and the interpretation of the provisions thereof and of the related option agreements, are resolved by the board of directors or committee.


Shares Subject to Awards


We have currently reserved 5,000,000 of our authorized but unissued shares of common stock for issuance under the plan, and a maximum of 5,000,000 shares may be issued, unless the plan is subsequently amended, subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes in our capitalization, without further action by our board of directors and stockholders, as required. Subject to the limitation on the aggregate number of shares issuable under the plan, there is no maximum or minimum number of shares as to which a stock grant or plan option may be granted to any person. Shares used for stock grants and plan options may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by us, including shares purchased in the open market. Shares covered by plan options which terminate unexercised will again become available for grant as additional options, without decreasing the maximum number of shares issuable under the plan, although such shares may also be used by us for other purposes.


The plan provides that, if our outstanding shares are increased, decreased, exchanged or otherwise adjusted due to a share dividend, forward or reverse share split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment will be made in the number or kind of shares subject to the plan or subject to unexercised options and in the purchase price per share under such options. Any adjustment, however, does not change the total purchase price payable for the shares subject to outstanding options. In the event of our proposed dissolution or liquidation, a proposed sale of all or substantially all of our assets, a merger or tender offer for our shares of common stock, the board of directors may declare that each option granted under the Plan terminates as of a date to be fixed by the board of directors; provided that not less than 30 days written notice of the date so fixed shall be given to each participant holding an option, and each such participant shall have the right, during the period of 30 days preceding such termination, to exercise the participant's option, in whole or in part, including as to options not otherwise exercisable.

Terms of Exercise


The plan provides that the options granted thereunder shall be exercisable from time to time in whole or in part, unless otherwise specified by the committee or by the board of directors.


The plan provides that, with respect to incentive stock options, the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of the shares of common stock, with respect to which incentive stock options are first exercisable by any option holder during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.


Exercise Price


The purchase price for shares subject to incentive stock options must be at least 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option is granted, except that the purchase price must be at least 110% of the fair market value in the case of an incentive option granted to a person who is a "10% stockholder." A "10% stockholder" is a person who owns, within the meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, at the time the incentive option is granted, shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our outstanding shares. The plan provides that fair market value shall be determined by the board of directors or the committee in accordance with procedures which it may from time to time establish. If the purchase price is paid with consideration other than cash, the Board or the Committee shall determine the fair value of such consideration to us in monetary terms.


The exercise price of non-qualified options shall be determined by the board of directors or the committee, but shall not be less than the par value of our common stock on the date the option is granted.


The per share purchase price of shares issuable upon exercise of a plan option may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in our capitalization, but no such adjustment shall change the total purchase price payable upon the exercise in full of options granted under the plan.


Manner of Exercise


Plan options are exercisable by delivery of written notice to us stating the number of shares with respect to which the option is being exercised, together with full payment of the purchase price therefor. Payment shall be in cash, checks, certified or bank cashier's checks, promissory notes secured by the shares issued through exercise of the related options, shares of common stock or in such other form or combination of forms which shall be acceptable to the board of directors or the committee, provided that any loan or guarantee by us of the purchase price may only be made upon resolution of the board of directors or committee that such loan or guarantee is reasonably expected to benefit us.


Option Period


All incentive stock options shall expire on or before the tenth anniversary of the date the option is granted except as limited above. However, in the case of incentive stock options granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the common stock, these options will expire no later than five years after the date of the grant. Non-qualified options shall expire 10 years and one day from the date of grant unless otherwise provided under the terms of the option grant.


Termination


All plan options are nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of the optionee, may be exercised only by such optionee. If an optionee shall die while our employee or within three months after termination of employment by us because of disability, or retirement or otherwise, such options may be exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been entitled to do so on the date of death or termination of employment, by the person or persons to whom the optionee's right under the option pass by will or applicable law, or if no such person has such right, by his executors or administrators.

In the event of termination of employment because of death while an employee or because of disability, the optionee's options may be exercised not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after the optionee's death, whichever date is earlier, or in the event of termination of employment because of retirement or otherwise, not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after the optionee's death, whichever date is earlier.


If an optionee's employment by us terminates because of disability and such optionee has not died within the following three months, the options may be exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been entitled to do so at the date of the termination of employment, at any time, or from time to time, but not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after termination of employment, whichever date is earlier.


If an optionee's employment shall terminate for any reason other than death or disability, optionee may exercise the options to the same extent that the options were exercisable on the date of termination, for up to three months following such termination, or on or before the expiration date of the options, whichever occurs first. In the event that the optionee was not entitled to exercise the options at the date of termination or if the optionee does not exercise such options (which were then exercisable) within the time specified herein, the options shall terminate.


If an optionee's employment shall terminate for any reason other than death, disability or retirement, all right to exercise the option shall terminate not later than 90 days following the date of such termination of employment.


If an optionee's employment with us is terminated for any reason whatsoever, and within three months after the date thereof optionee either (i) accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise engages in competition with us, or (ii) discloses to anyone outside our company or uses any confidential information or material of our company in violation of our policies or any agreement between the optionee and our company, the committee, in its sole discretion, may terminate any outstanding stock option and may require optionee to return to us the economic value of any award that was realized or obtained by optionee at any time during the period beginning on that date that is six months prior to the date optionee's employment with us is terminated.


The committee may, if an optionee's employment with us is terminated for cause, annul any award granted under this plan to such employee and, in such event, the committee, in its sole discretion, may require optionee to return to us the economic value any award that was realized or obtained by optionee at any time during the period beginning on that date that is six months prior to the date optionee's employment with us is terminated.


Modification and Termination of Plan


The board of directors or committee may amend, suspend or terminate the plan at any time. However, no such action may prejudice the rights of any holder of a stock grant or optionee who has prior thereto been granted options under the plan. Further, no amendment to this plan which has the effect of (a) increasing the aggregate number of shares subject to this plan (except for adjustments due to changes in our capitalization), or (b) changing the definition of "Eligible Person" under the plan, may be effective unless and until approved by our stockholders in the same manner as approval of this plan is required. Any such termination of the plan shall not affect the validity of any stock grants or options previously granted thereunder. Unless the plan shall theretofore have been suspended or terminated by the board of directors, the plan will terminate on December 18, 2017.


NOTE 11.

GOING CONCERN


The Company sustained an accumulated net loss of $5,049,070 for the period from December 17, 1999 (inception) to June 30, 2014. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 12.

WARRANTS


During the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Company issued two notes payable that contained, in the aggregate, 125,000 warrants entitling the holders thereof to purchase 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five years from the issuance date of the notes payable. The 125,000 warrants were outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2014.


The exercise price of each of the warrants is $0.25 per share. At the time of issuance of the warrants, and as of June 30, 2014, the common stock price was lower than the $0.25 exercise price; accordingly, the warrants had no intrinsic value.


The expiration dates of the warrants are as follows: (a) 75,000 warrants expire on February 18, 2019 (b) 50,000 warrants expire on March 4, 2019. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2014 the weighted average remaining contractual term in years is 4.6.


Pursuant to ASC 718, the Company estimates the fair value of warrants based on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The fair value of warrants issued with debt is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. The range of fair value assumptions related to warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2014 were as follows: (a) dividend yield – 0% (b) risk-free rate – 1.84% to 1.97% (c) expected volatility – 71.8% (d) expected term – 5 years.


The expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of a publicly traded peer entity as determined by the Company. The risk free interest rate used was based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturity rate in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the warrants to be valued. The expected dividend yield was zero, as the Company does not anticipate paying a dividend within the relevant time frame. The expected warrant term is the life of the warrant.


The Company determined that the value of the 125,000 warrants, which totaled $8,344, was immaterial and, accordingly, the value of the warrants were not recorded by the Company and not included in its financial statements.

  

NOTE 13.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On July 2, 2014, LivingVentures, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a twelve month senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, as lender (the “Credit Agreement”).  Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be used for working capital purposes.


The Credit Agreement provides for an initial commitment of $600,000, provided only $300,000 of the commitment was made available to the Company on the closing date with the remaining principal amount held in reserve by the lender.  The availability of borrowings under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculation based upon funds available in a lock box account maintained in the lender’s name. Under circumstances described in the Credit Agreement, the commitment may be increased by up to $4.4 million, for a total commitment of $5 million.  Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at fixed rate of interest equal to eleven percent (11.0%) per annum, calculated on the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. The Credit Facility is secured by a lien on all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and is guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries.  Under the circumstances described in the Credit Agreement, the lender has the right to convert amounts due under the Credit Facility into the Company’s common stock.


In addition to representations and warranties, affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants, and events of default (applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries) which are customary for credit facilities of this type, the Credit Agreement provides that the Company must not permit its financial condition to materially differ in any material negative way (as compared to its current financial condition) and must meet specified revenue targets as set forth in the Credit Facility.  The Credit Facility is cross-defaulted with the Company’s other outstanding indebtedness and provides that a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a judgment for an amount in excess of $25,000 or an adverse change in the Company’s financial condition, as determined by the lender acting in good faith, are all events of default.

As consideration for the entry into the Credit Agreement, the Company agreed to pay certain fees to the lender, including a commitment fee equal to two percent (2.0%) of the commitment and an investment banking and advisory services fee paid in shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate value of $170,000 (the “Fee Shares”).  Each Fee Share was valued at a price equal to the lowest volume weighted average price for the five business days prior to the closing date of the Credit Facility.  Under circumstances described in the Credit Agreement, (i) the lender can require the Company to redeem the Fee Shares and (ii) upon the sale of the Fee Shares by the lender, the Company may be required to issue additional shares of the Company’s common stock.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Overview and History

LivingVentures, Inc. (formerly known as Green Global Investments, Inc.) and hereinafter “LV” or “the Company”) is a smaller reporting company as described by the Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission Regulations. LV was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on December 17, 1999.


The company was initially incorporated as a clean energy consultant providing advisory services to new projects in China. In addition to providing consultancy and advisory services, the company acquired a company that was formulating, marketing and distributing energy efficient and PC/ABS substitutable resin products in China.


Also during this period, management of LV developed an Asian capital markets strategy. On July 6, 2010, the Company formed a 100% subsidiary, now called GGI (Asia) Limited (“GGIA”). GGIA built critical strategic relationships in the Asian capital markets, which in turn was to provide funding under the U.S. EB-5 Visa Program, discussed more fully below. Management dissolved GGIA in December 2013. GGIA did not have any operations in 2012 and 2013.


In 2012, after an analysis of the company’s business and in line with the intent of the Board to focus on North American growth opportunities, the Company identified the growing senior population as an interesting potential sector for investment.


As part of its effort to re-focus the Company’s business, on March 5, 2012, LV entered into a Membership Interest and Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and between the Company, Allen Tat Yan Huie (“Huie”), the Allen Huie Family Trust (“Huie Trust”), CommerCenters, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“CC”) and certain other individuals listed on Exhibit “A” of the Agreement (collectively, the “Members”), whereby the Members each agreed to assign their units in CC in exchange for a number of shares of common stock in the Company as more specifically set forth in the Agreement. For further details, see the Agreement filed with the Form 8-K on March 6, 2012 and the amendments filed on March 21, 2012 and May 9, 2012.


CC was a fully integrated, real estate investment and development firm, headquartered in Orlando, Florida. CC also owned 50% of CommerCenters EB5 Regional Center Investments, LLC (“CCEB”) d/b/a Orlando EB5 Investments, which was formed to operate as a Regional Center through the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service’s EB-5 Program. The acquisition was designed to provide the company with both real estate development expertise and access to low cost EB5 funding for senior housing projects in the US.  To allow the Company to focus its commitment to building a senior housing business the Company sold this entity on July 11, 2013 as more fully explained in NOTE 4 to the financial statements.


CommerCenters EB5 Regional Center Investments, LLC (“CCEB”), d/b/a Orlando EB5 Investments, is a Florida limited liability company formed in 2009 as a 50%-owned subsidiary of CC. Orlando EB5 Investments was formed with the purpose of operating as a Regional Center through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service’s EB5 program. The Company sold this entity on July 11, 2013 as more fully explained in NOTE 4

 to the financial statements.


 To further shift in strategy to North American senior housing, the Company acquired a 90% interest in International Care Management Services (2040177 Ontario Ltd.), an Ontario, Canada corporation and International Care Management Services Ltd. Inc., a Washington, USA corporation, both effective September 1, 2012 (collectively “ICMS”).


Also in connection with these acquisitions, the Company entered into employment agreements with David B. Edwards and Jeffrey Edwards, respectively the president and chief operating officer of ICMS.


When acquired, the companies managed and/or provided services to 981 units in 10 senior housing facilities in Toronto, Canada. For further details, see the information filed with Form 8-K on September 14, 2012.


On June 15, 2012, LV entered into an agreement to sell the 100% shareholding in China Clean and Renewable Energy Limited (“CCRE”) to Power Pacific Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation. The transaction was structured as a sale of CCRE’s assets, including its 100% shareholding in both Renewable Energy Enterprises (Shanghai) Co. Ltd and EEP Limited.




19



 


In February 2013, the Company’s name was changed to LivingVentures, Inc. which was approved by FINRA and its trading symbol was changed to “LIVV”. This change followed the restructuring of the Company and its change in focus after the business acquisitions it made in 2012.


In July 2013 the Company closed the office in Orlando and the head office was moved to Fort Myers, Florida providing overhead synergies and reducing salaries. In September 2013 the Company appointed Dave Edwards as CEO and Joseph Bickley as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Shortly thereafter, Dave Edwards was appointed to the Board of Directors. In November 2013, Steven Morton, a senior housing veteran, was appointed to the Board of Directors.


Organization


After the above described events, the Company now has the following legal structure and organization:


LivingVentures, Inc. ("LV") is the parent company and its name is closely aligned with its mission as a leading senior housing management business.


LivingVentures Management, LLC (“LVM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of LV is a Florida limited company. The company was formed for the carrying out of the operations of property and facility management.


LivingVentures Development, LLC (“LVD”), a wholly owned subsidiary of LV, is a Florida limited company. It is involved in the development of assisted living and other real estate projects.


2040177 Ontario Limited (“ICMS-Canada”), a 90% owned subsidiary of LV, is an Ontario corporation in Canada. The company was formed for the carrying out of the operations of property and facility management in Canada under the trade name of “International Care Management Services”.


International Care Management Services Ltd. (“ICMS-US”), a 90% owned subsidiary of LV, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington. This company continues its operations following its acquisition by LV.


LV and its subsidiaries, LVM, LVD, ICMS-Canada, and ICMS-US, are herein referred to as the “Company”.


Business


LV is seeking to grow our business in the senior housing sector in four ways: 1) by organically increasing its number of units under management; 2) through partnering with proven developers to build new facilities where LV will be the manager, provide consulting services and earn a portion of the increase in property value; 3) by entering into long term lease agreements of senior housing facilities where LV will be the owner/operator of the business and 4) through acting as the sponsor for the acquisition of new communities where capital is provided by third parties and LV becomes the manager.


LV manages and provides services to facilities in Ontario, Canada and in Florida. Additional projects under consideration are in Arizona and Indiana.


LV is working with six established developers on 13 different senior housing projects. These projects are typically owned by separate equity investors and will all be managed by LV once completed. In addition, LV will earn fees for feasibility studies, market analysis, building design and monitoring, pre-marketing. In some cases LV will earn a portion of the development fee and an equity carry in the IRR above a minimum IRR threshold.


Operational Challenges


LV has shifted its operating focus away from non-senior housing areas and has disposed of any non-core assets and personnel. During this transition period, the company has been operating with a working capital deficiency and negative cash flow. Management has made significant progress in achieving the operational goals that were set for the transition including the closing of the office in Orlando providing overhead synergies and the execution of the business plan whereby the company earns recurring fees. One of the main goals of this transition period was to focus on generating positive cash flow from operations. To that end, the company has many ongoing projects, in various stages, which will, if they go forward, generate significant cash flow to cover all operating and overhead costs.




20



 


The company has been funding its cash flow deficiency through a combination of selling non-core assets and by raising equity and debt from both insiders and arm’s length investors. It is expected that funds from these sources will continue to be available to the company until such a time as the funds are no longer needed. In addition, the company continues to pursue outside capital and is seeking up to $4 million of new equity capital and a new operating line of credit (NOTE 14 Subsequent Events).


We remain reasonably optimistic about our prospects, but cannot be sure that we will be successful in raising all of the necessary working capital needed. As such there are no assurances that we will have sufficient funds to execute our business plan, pay our obligations as they become due, or generate positive operating results.


Results of Operations

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company sustained a net loss of $72,750 and $435,196 respectively, compared to a net loss of $496,003 and $926,768 for the three and six months ended June 30,2013, a decrease of $423,253 and $491,572 compared to 2013.  Both decreases are primarily attributable to an increase in revenues and a decrease in general and administrative and professional fees.


During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 net revenues were $477,842 and $739,857 respectively, compared to net revenues of $154,089 and $348,958 during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $323,753 and $390,899 compared to 2013. The increases in revenues are primarily attributed to consortium fees for 2014 which were nonexistent in 2013 for the same period.


Total operating expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 were $506,035 and $1,097,792 respectively, compared to $588,786 and $1,238,329 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $82,751 and $140,537 compared to 2013.  Total operating expenses in the areas of professional fees and general and administrative expense decreased as a result of closing the Orlando office to provide overhead synergies maintaining one Corporate US office located in Fort Myers, FL.


During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 professional fees were $36,946 and $105,096 respectively, compared to $70,313 and $150,124 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $33,367 and $45,028 compared to 2013.  Professional fees generally include legal and accounting attributable to SEC compliance and other consulting services pertinent to the development and operation of our business. The decreases in professional fees was primarily a result of services which were brought in house for 2014.


During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 salary expense totaled $311,361 and $642,076 respectively, compared to $363,152 and $696,283 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $51,791 and $54,207 compared to 2013. The decreases in salary expense was primarily attributable to the closing of the Orlando office and reduction of staff which occurred in the first three months of 2014.


Our general and administrative expenses were $157,728 and $350,620 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 respectively and $155,321 and $391,922 for the three months and six ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $2,407 and decrease of $41,302 compared to 2013.  The increase is a result of ordinary expenses and the decrease is primarily a result of the Orlando office closure and reduced travel, rent and ordinary expense in the first three months of 2014.


For the remainder of 2014, we anticipate increases in both salary expense and general and administrative expenses as we continue to implement our business model, focused on growing our senior housing management and consulting businesses. We shall maintain our rationalization effort in controlling our expenses to remain as efficient as possible in light of our financial resources.  Management expects revenue increases to continue throughout the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2014, we had a deficit in working capital of $1,765,564 as compared to a deficit of $1,851,848 at December 31, 2013. The change of $86,284 was comprised of a decrease in cash balances of $109,957, an increase in receivables $12,387, decreases in deposits and deferred charges of $32,865, decreases in lines of credit, notes payable and shareholder advances of $477,586, and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $260,867.



21



 


Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $117,917, as compared to $719,679 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The change of $601,762 is primarily attributable to a lower net loss and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Net cash used by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was zero as compared to $4,950 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The change of $4,950 is a result of fixed assets purchased in 2013.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $7,960 as compared to $565,580 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The change of $557,620 largely represents issuance of common stock and proceeds from related party notes.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15I and 15d-15I under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Based on his evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our President who also serves as our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and were effective at the reasonable assurance level for which they were designed such that the information relating to our company, including our consolidating subsidiary, required to be disclosed by us in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
