PART I

 

Item 1. Business.

 

Overview

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory has established a permanent capital and talent base upon which to provide the corporate strategy consulting services noted below. A variety of methods to support this two-pronged effort include the issuance of additional shares of the parent and the subsidiary housing the incubating client. This can be achieved through private placement and/or issuance of Convertible Preferred Stock and loans from senior officers and other direct management or investment participants. A sustained flow of Strategy Assignments is expected through the networking of senior executives and board and advisory board additions. This may include the purchase of rights to provide financial strategy packages to clients of other financial/business services companies. While rights agreements of this nature are not typical, senior management, drawing on personal contacts and those of credentialed members of its Corporate Strategy Advisory Board believes that offering to provide a very select cost-effective service that with our permanent in-house professionals will augment other financial services already being offered by the financial/business services firm entering into the rights agreement is an acceptable additional option for accelerating the growth of Daniels. However, there is no assurance that has time goes by a financial/business service business client may decide to enter our business and there is no provision in our agreement to prevent that from happening. However, our senior management believes that our success with the ultimate client, - the client of a financial/business services firm contracting with us for our strategy services, will determine whether Daniels Corporate Advisory retains the client or not.

 

The services incorporated into corporate strategy advisory and implementation to help formulate a path for the acceleration of corporate development (growth) for the ultimate (end user) client include market analysis, deal negotiation and structure, determination of optimum finance alternatives, the creation of joint-ventures, marketing agreements, new product/creation additions and acquisitions. Daniels has a loosely organized cadre of highly-qualified, independent contractors/consultants available to perform the necessary services to achieve the optimum corporate strategy for a client.

 

Daniels is developing direct methods for obtaining clients, namely creating brand advertising in industry niches of interest and subsequent referral by a stockholder or partner. Name brand recognition will be refined and expanded with bigger budget dollars after one or two successful corporate strategy assignments have been completed.

The “specialty” services that have been perfected through success will be publicizing on our and the client’s website for worldwide recognition.

 

As our presence in the market place becomes more visible, through publication on client websites of our successes in our initial corporate strategy consulting assignments added financing options with more competitive firms are expected to materialize for the benefit of all our clients. Capital companies and high-net worth (accredited) individuals may contact us to see if they may participate directly in subsequent assignments.

 

 

Recent Business Developments

 

The Company is operating through the corporate strategy segment of its business. It is attempting to build its own critical mass by creation of start-up subsidiaries it believes have promise/potential. The stated goal is for the parent (DCAC) company to consolidate the critical mass of subsidiaries to meet the financial requirements for up-listing to a major Stock Exchange.

 

Senior management and our advisory board are developing a corporate strategy platform for a specific client.

 

The Company conducts on-going networking and business development in corporate strategy through its chairman, on a chairman to chairman basis, through the networks of its Advisory Board Members and its expanded, independent contractor consulting team. A full range of disciplines are offered to the mini-cap public and private company through personalized relationship networking to keep initial marketing costs at a minimum. Disciplines being offered are operational strategies, market-planning, senior oversight management and financial alternatives consulting on optimum paths for the client to take. This could include but not be limited to external growth alternatives requiring advisory on M & A, levered transactions, capital structure, bridge loans, and equity financing.

Business Strategy - Current Operational Strategy & Current Client Projects:

 

Daniels creates and implements corporate strategy alternatives for the mini-cap public or private company client. The addition of new business opportunities and the location of professional talent for implementation is anticipated through the full-time efforts of our senior management. These efforts are to be expanded in the US and in Foreign capitals by an expanding advisory board and through the networks of independent consultants. Principals of the respective client company will open their networks to augment professional access for specialties the Daniels corporate strategy consultants believe are needed in a jointly-venture, (jointly-controlled) undertaking created for the client’s optimum growth.

 

Daniels may provide the client with multiple corporate strategies /opportunities including joint-ventures, marketing opportunity agreements and/or potential acquisitions structured in LBO format. One or a combination of these strategies would allow the client to enter new market niches or expand further into existing ones.

 

The Goal : Within twenty-four months from commencement of a Corporate Strategy Assignment, financial results, aided by all participating players, should be forthcoming and recorded in SEC Filings. At the same time, a senior management team and Board expanded with highly-credible interim (or permanent) professionals (directors) will be provided in order to successfully navigate the listing process of a major Stock Exchange. While Daniels believes this process should be successful in the above-noted, time period, there is some uncertainty in the process which is dependent upon any past issues the listing committee of a specific exchange may deem necessary to be addressed prior to uplifting.

 

A similar effort will be provided to tailor an optimum growth program for the private company client, whether it chooses to remain private or to become a public company through alternative merger opportunities.

 

OPTIMUM GROWTH STRATEGY:

 

Twelve to Twenty-Four Month Horizons for Daniels’ Objectives:

 

Daniels’ believes that the validity of its corporate strategy model will be proven further through the success of several of its client/incubation/subsidiary deals. The Company plans to use its publicly traded common stock, in a variety of securities packages, including anti-dilutive Convertible Preferred Stock, to finance a subsidiary start-up, initially for generic sales/profits growth. Subsequent growth options noted above will be applied as external growth becomes a secondary goal. This method of two stage (generic and then external) growth is designed to leave existing client management with commanding equity and operating control positions. Eventually, an optimum exit strategy will be developed for the subsidiary, one that returns a significant return on corporate (parent) capital. The choices of optimum exit strategies could include bringing a subsidiary public, directly, or merging it with a public company operating in one of the more profitable niches of the specific market designated for expansion. The same corporate strategy model can/will be applied to any independent mini-cap public client.

 

We believe our business model to be scalable. Based upon the potential success of the initial corporate strategy consulting assignments creating our uplifting to a major Stock Exchange, Daniels may entertain the creation of a franchising plan for key US Cities and Foreign Capitals or Finance Centers.

Sales and Marketing

 

Daniels senior management will concentrate its efforts to expand its corporate strategy and financial advisory services and related specialties in the mini-cap segment of the private and public markets, where Daniels believes it will be effective. Marketing efforts will increase through social and print media efforts and will be in addition to those methods already mentioned herein.

 

Daniels objective is to create and help manage implementation of accelerated expansion strategies and in so doing, aid in the creation of financing alternatives to accomplish client goals.

 

Competition

 

Existing and new competitors will continue to improve their services and introduce new services with competitive price and performance characteristics.

 

In periods of reduced demand for our services, we can either choose to maintain market share by reducing our prices to meet competition or maintain prices and choose only those assignments with new clients, that have pressing goals to be met, that offer Daniels optimum potential for profits and growth.

 

The “collective” corporate financial services, including merchant banking/private equity, are very competitive and fragmented in the Company’s market niche. There are limited barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter the market. A significant number of our competitors possess substantially greater resources. We are and will continue to offer equity compensation to our team of Advisory Board Members, and independent strategy consultants in order to keep a stable, cohesive team of professionals, which is necessary and key to the creation of operating and capital solutions in a timely fashion.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

An investment in our Common Stock is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk and should be considered only by those persons who are able to afford a loss of their entire investment. In evaluating our business, prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in this Annual Report.

  

Risks Relating to Our Business

 

We have a limited operating history which may not serve as an adequate basis to judge our future prospects and results of operations.

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc., which was incorporated on August 22, 2002, has a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our future performance and prospects can be made. We are an early-stage operating company with limited revenue history. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, delays, problems and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of a new business. As an early-stage operating company , Daniels Corporate Advisory faces risks and uncertainties relating to its ability to successfully implement its business plan, which are described in more detail below.

 

Since inception, as a subsidiary of INfe Human Resources, Inc., Daniels Corporate Advisory has always been an operating company, furnishing its advisory to all phases of operations, finance and in the management of the staffing industry roll-up for its parent company for which revenues were eliminated during consolidations.

 

Limited revenues and ongoing losses.

 

Since inception, Daniels Corporate Advisory has generated limited revenue. Daniels earnings potential would have been greater; however, its focus had been in a financial advisory capacity to its parent company INfe Human Resources, which concentrated in Staffing and Executive Placements Industries. Daniels was spun off to concentrate on its core Corporate Strategy consulting business. Daniels has incurred consistent operating losses to date.

Our business strategy is unproven and our prospects must be considered speculative.

 

Our business strategy is unproven, and we may not be successful in addressing early stage challenges, such as establishing our position in the market and developing effective marketing of our services. To implement our business plan, capital may be provided from existing and possibly new consulting business revenue and through outside financing. We have not yet located additional financing to implement our business plan in its entirety. Initial growth may be very limited and based solely on compensation from a small, existing, consulting assignment with no guarantee of obtaining additional assignments over the next twelve months. The other potential growth segment of our business plan, the acquisition of marketing rights for our services through the client networks of other Business Services Companies, will only occur if we can obtain outside financing. Internally generated funds, alone, will not be sufficient to implement this phase of our business plan.

 

Our prospects must be considered speculative, considering the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of a new business, specifically the risks inherent in developmental stage companies. We expect to continue to incur significant operating and capital expenditures and, as a result, we expect significant net losses in the future. It is possible that we will not be able to achieve profitable operations or, if profitability is achieved, that it will be maintained for any significant period, or at all.

 

Our auditors have stated we may not be able to stay in business.

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, which means that there is doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next 12-months. Unless we can raise additional capital, we may not be able to achieve our objectives and may have to suspend or cease operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

The JOBS Act allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies.

 

Since, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, this election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We have different disclosure requirements than other public companies as an Emerging Growth Company (EGC).

 

Pursuant to Section 107 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) which was signed into law on April 5, 2012, we have elected to claim the exemption provided to emerging growth companies.

 

The JOBS Act provides an “IPO on ramp” for “emerging growth companies” (a newly created category of issuer under the Securities Act), which are issuers with annual gross revenues of less than $1 billion during the most recently completed fiscal year. Emerging growth companies may take advantage of the scaled disclosure requirements that already have been available to “smaller reporting companies” (defined by the Securities Act as companies having a public float of less than $75 million). The scaled disclosure includes a requirement to include only two, rather than three, years of audited financial statements in the issuer’s initial public offering (“IPO”) registration statement and, during the “IPO on ramp” period, the ability to omit the auditor’s attestation on internal control over financial reporting required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

Also, during the “IPO on ramp” period, emerging growth companies would not need to submit say-on-pay votes to their stockholders (including say-on-pay frequency or golden parachute votes) and would face more limited executive compensation disclosure requirements than larger companies.

We may not be successful in the implementation of our business strategy or our business strategy may not be successful, either of which will impede our development and growth.

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory is engaged in the business of offering corporate financial consulting services and merchant banking services.

 

We do not know whether we will be able to continue successfully implementing our business strategy or whether our business strategy will ultimately be successful. In assessing our ability to meet these challenges, a potential investor should take into account our lack of operating history, our management’s relative inexperience, the competitive conditions existing in our industry and general economic conditions. Our growth is largely dependent on our ability to successfully implement our business strategy. Our revenues may be adversely affected if we fail to implement our business strategy or if we divert resources to a business strategy that ultimately proves unsuccessful.

 

Our service offerings may not be accepted.

 

We constantly seek to modify our service offerings to the marketplace. As is typically the case evolving service offerings, anticipation of demand and market acceptance are subject to a high level of uncertainty. The success of our service offerings primarily depends on the interest of our customers. In general, achieving market acceptance for our services will require substantial marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant funds, which we may not have available, to create awareness and demand among customers.

 

We have limited marketing experience, and have extremely limited financial, personnel and other resources to undertake extensive marketing activities. Accordingly, we are uncertain as to the acceptance of any of our services or our ability to generate the revenues necessary to remain in business.

 

Risks associated with our ability to manage expansion through acquisitions.

 

The growth of our business depends in large part on our ability to manage expansion, control costs in our operations and consolidate acquisitions into existing operations. This strategy will entail reviewing and potentially reorganizing acquired operations, corporate infrastructure and system and financial controls. Unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complication and delays frequently encountered in connection with the rapid expansion of operations could inhibit our growth and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

  

Risks associated with our inability to identify suitable acquisition or subsidiary/spin-off candidates.

 

We may be unable to identify acquisition candidates that would result in the most successful combinations or be unable to consummate acquisitions on acceptable terms. The magnitude, timing and nature of future acquisitions will depend upon various factors, including our success in establishing the corporate development “pilot programs” for consulting clients as a viable means of growth acceleration, the availability of suitable acquisition candidates that have the client base suitable for cross-marketing opportunities, the negotiation of acceptable terms, our financial capabilities, the availability of skilled employees to manage acquired companies and general economic and business conditions.

 

We may be unable to obtain financing for the acquisitions or subsidiary/spin-offs that are available to us.

 

We are currently attempting to obtain financing for our corporate financial consulting and merchant banking services lines of business as well as for acquisition opportunities which could result in material dilution to our existing stockholders. We may be unable to obtain adequate financing for further development of our proposed services and for any acquisition for cross-marketing of services purposes, or that, if available, such financing will be on favorable terms.

 

Our future financial results are uncertain, and our operating results may fluctuate, due to, among other things, consumer trends, seasonal fluctuations and market demand.

 

Our short and sporadic operating history makes it difficult to accurately forecast our revenue. Further, we have little historical financial data upon which to base planned operating expenses. We base our current and future expense levels on our operating plans and estimates of future expenses. Our expenses are dependent in large part upon expenses associated with our proposed marketing expenditures and related overhead expenses, and the costs of hiring and maintaining qualified personnel to carry out our respective services. Sales and operating results are difficult to forecast because they will depend on the growth of our customer base, changes in customer demands and consumer trends, the degree of utilization of our advertising services as well as the mix of services and services sold. As a result, we may be unable to make accurate financial forecasts and adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. This inability could cause our net losses in a given quarter to be greater than expected.

We rely on the services of Arthur D. Viola.

 

Our business relies on the efforts and talents of our sole officer and director, Arthur D. Viola. The loss of his services could have a very negative impact on our ability to fulfill on our business plan.

 

We may have difficulty in attracting and retaining management and outside independent members to our board of directors because of their concerns relating to their increased personal exposure to lawsuits and stockholder claims by virtue of holding these positions in a publicly quoted company.

 

The directors and management of publicly quoted corporations are increasingly concerned with the extent of their personal exposure to lawsuits and stockholder claims, as well as governmental and creditor claims which may be made against them, particularly in view of recent changes in securities laws imposing additional duties, obligations and liabilities on management and directors. Due to these perceived risks, directors and management are also becoming increasingly concerned with the availability of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to pay on a timely basis the costs incurred in defending such claims. We currently do carry limited directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Directors’ and officers’ liability insurance has recently become much more expensive and difficult to obtain. If we are unable to continue or provide directors’ and officers’ liability insurance at affordable rates or at all, it may become increasingly more difficult to attract and retain qualified outside directors to serve on our board of directors.

  

We may lose potential independent board members and management candidates to other companies that have greater directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to insure them from liability or to companies that have revenues or have received greater funding to date which can offer more lucrative compensation packages. The fees of directors are also rising in response to their increased duties, obligations and liabilities as well as increased exposure to such risks. As a company with limited operating history and resources, we will have a more difficult time attracting and retaining management and outside independent directors than a more established company due to these enhanced duties, obligations and liabilities.

 

We may fail to establish and maintain strategic relationships.

 

We believe that the establishment of strategic partnerships will greatly benefit the growth of our business, and we intend to seek out and enter into strategic alliances. We may not be able to enter into these strategic partnerships on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Even if we enter into strategic alliances, our partners may not attract significant numbers of customers or otherwise prove advantageous to our business. Our inability to enter into new distribution relationships or strategic alliances could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

 

We may incur significant costs to ensure compliance with U.S. corporate governance and accounting requirements.

 

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the SEC. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officers liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

Risks Relating to Our Stock

 

Arthur D. Viola owns 100,000 shares of our super voting preferred stock entitling him to vote 66 2/3 percent of the common stock shares in any common stock vote. This concentration of ownership could discourage or prevent a potential takeover of Daniels Corporate Advisory that might otherwise result in our stockholders receiving a premium over the market price for their common stock.

   

Mr. Viola owns 31,185,000 shares of our common stock as well as 100,000 shares of the Daniels Corporate Advisory Super-Voting preferred stock which has voting rights equal to 66 2/3 percent of the votes in any Common Stock Election. Mr. Viola’s ownership and voting rights in our common stock allows Mr. Viola to have voting control on all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval and to be able to control our management and affairs, including extraordinary transactions such as mergers and other changes of corporate control, and going private transactions. Additionally, this concentration of voting power could discourage or prevent a potential takeover of Daniels Corporate Advisory that might otherwise result in our stockholders receiving a premium over the market price for their common stock.

  

We may need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise necessary additional capital, our business may fail or our operating results and our stock price may be materially adversely affected.

 

Because we are a newly operational company, we need to secure adequate funding. Selling additional stock, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of our stockholders. If we borrow more money, we will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions that limit our operating flexibility. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may have to curtail our operations and our business would fail.

 

Our issuance of additional common stock in exchange for services or to repay debt would dilute our stockholders’ proportionate ownership and voting rights and could have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

 

The stated listing requirements for the OTCBB are as follows:

 

· Fully reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission;

 

· Not a blank check or inactive company;

 

· Minimum of 40 stockholders of record holding at least 100 shares each (note: this number is informal and has been moving up);

 

· Directors, officers, and stockholders will be scrutinized for previous involvements in other OTCBB companies, in particular, blank check companies; and

 

· Must have a market maker submit a Rule 15c211 application to FINRA and agree to act as market maker for securities of company.

 

Even if our shares become publicly quoted, they may not be “free-trading.”

 

Investors should understand that their shares of our common stock will not become “free-trading” merely because Daniels Corporate Advisory is a publicly-quoted company. In order for the shares to become “free-trading,” the shares must be registered, or entitled to an exemption from registration under applicable law. See “Shares Eligible for Future Sale.”

We may need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise necessary additional capital, our business may fail or our operating results and our stock price may be materially adversely affected.

 

Because we are a newly operational company, we need to secure adequate funding. Selling additional stock, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of our stockholders. If we borrow more money, we will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions that limit our operating flexibility. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may have to curtail our operations and our business would fail.

 

Our issuance of additional common stock in exchange for services or to repay debt would dilute our stockholders’ proportionate ownership and voting rights and could have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

 

Our sole director, Mr. Viola, may generally issue shares of common stock to pay for debt or services, without further approval by our stockholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is likely that we will issue additional securities to pay for services and reduce debt in the future. It is possible that we will issue additional shares of common stock under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time.

   

We have never paid or declared any dividends on our common stock.

 

We have never paid or declared any dividends on our common stock. Likewise, we do not anticipate paying, dividends or distributions on our common stock or our common stock to be sold in this offering. Any future dividends will be declared at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things, on our earnings, our financial requirements for future operations and growth, and other facts as we may then deem appropriate.

 

Our directors have the right to authorize the issuance of shares of our preferred stock and additional shares of our common stock.

  

Our sole director, Mr. Viola, within the limitations and restrictions contained in our articles of incorporation and without further action by our stockholders, has the authority to issue shares of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series and to fix the number of shares and the relative rights, conversion rights, voting rights, and terms of redemption, liquidation preferences and any other preferences, special rights and qualifications of any such series. We currently have no intention of issuing additional shares of preferred stock. Any additional issuance of shares of preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of holders of our common stock.

 

Should we issue additional shares of our common stock, each investor’s ownership interest in our stock would be proportionally reduced. No investor will have any preemptive right to acquire additional shares of our common stock, or any of our other securities.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted and our shares are quoted on the Pink Sheets or the OTCBB, and we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTCBB, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

 

Companies whose shares are quoted for sale on the OTCBB and some whose shares are quoted for sale on the Pink Sheets must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and must be current in their reports under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, to maintain price quotation privileges on the Pink Sheets and OTCBB. If our shares become publicly quoted and our shares are quoted for sale on the OTCBB, and we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTCBB. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

If our shares become publicly quoted, the market price for our common stock will most likely be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly quoted public float, limited operating history and lack of net revenues which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which stockholders purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted, the market for our common stock will most likely be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price would be attributable to several factors. First, as noted above, the shares of our common stock will likely be sporadically and/or thinly quoted. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously if shares of our common stock are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price.

  

Secondly, we will most likely be a speculative or “risky” investment due to our dependence on an initial flow of corporate consulting assignments and their implementation producing positive results to attract new clients. Because of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer.

 

There may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a mature issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. It is possible that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will not develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will continue.

 

Shares eligible for future sale by our current stockholders may adversely affect our stock price .

 

The sale of a significant number of shares of common stock at any particular time could be difficult to achieve at the market prices prevailing immediately before such shares are offered. In addition, sales of substantial amounts of common stock, including shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 144 or otherwise could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital at that time through the sale of our securities.

 

Anti-takeover provisions may impede the acquisition of Daniels Corporate Advisory.

 

Certain provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes have anti-takeover effects and may inhibit a non-negotiated merger or other business combination. These provisions are intended to encourage any person interested in acquiring Daniels Corporate Advisory to negotiate with, and to obtain the approval of, our sole director, Mr. Viola, in connection with such a transaction. As a result, certain of these provisions may discourage a future acquisition of Daniels Corporate Advisory, including an acquisition in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares.

 

13

 


Our stockholders may be unable to sell their common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.

 

The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our common stock: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; government regulations, announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures; our capital commitments; and additions or departures of our key personnel. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common stock will be at any time, including as to whether our common stock will sustain the current market price, or as to what effect the sale of shares or the availability of common stock for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

  

We may need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise necessary additional capital, our business may be negatively impacted or our operating results and our stock price may be materially adversely affected.

 

We may need to secure adequate funding. If we are unable to obtain adequate funding, we may not be able to successfully develop and market our proposed products and our business will most likely fail. We do not have commitments for additional financing. To secure additional financing, we may need to borrow money or sell more securities, which may reduce the value of our outstanding securities. We may be unable to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

 

Selling additional stock, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of our stockholders. If we borrow more money, we will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions that limit our operating flexibility. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may have to curtail business operations, which would have a material negative effect on operating results and most likely result in a lower stock price.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted, an active trading market in our shares may not be sustained.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted, an active trading market in our shares may not be sustained. Factors such as those discussed in this “Risk Factors” section may have a significant impact upon the market price of the securities to be distributed by us. Many brokerage firms may not be willing to participate in transactions in a security if a low price develops in the trading of the security. Even if a purchaser finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of our securities as collateral for any loans.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted, our common stock will most likely be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the trading market in our common stock will be limited, which would make transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the investment value of our stock.

 

If our shares become publicly quoted, our shares of common stock will most likely be “penny stocks” because they most likely will not be registered on a national securities exchange or listed on an automated quotation system sponsored by a registered national securities association, pursuant to Rule 3a51-1(a) under the Exchange Act. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

· That a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 

· That the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

· The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

· Sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 

· That the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

14

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

  

The market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.

 

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

 

· Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;

 

· Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;

 

· Boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced salespersons;

 

· Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

 

· The wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequential investor losses.

 

Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, if our shares become publicly quoted, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

 

Subscriptions to purchase shares in this offering are irrevocable and will be immediately available for our use without any escrow.

 

The execution of a subscription agreement by an investor constitutes a binding offer to purchase shares of our common stock. Once an investor subscribes for our shares, the investor will not be able to revoke his subscription. As stated elsewhere herein, the proceeds from the sale of our shares will not be subject to any escrow but will be immediately available for our use. Consequently, those investors who purchase shares earlier in the offering will be substantially more at risk than those investors who purchase later in the offering. The later investors will have had the opportunity to assess the success of the offering before making an investment. In no event will the subscribed amounts be returned to investors.

WE MAY NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS IN THE FUTURE FOR OUR OPERATIONS AND IF WE ARE UNABLE TO SECURE SUCH FINANCING, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS .

 

Future events, including the problems, delays, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by growing companies, may lead to cost and expense increases that could make our revenues insufficient to support our operations and business plans. We may seek additional capital, including an offering of our equity securities, an offering of debt securities or obtaining financing through a bank or other entity. We have not established a limit as to the amount of debt we may incur nor have we adopted a ratio of our equity to a debt allowance. If we need to obtain additional financing, there is no assurance that financing will be available from any source, that it will be available on terms acceptable to us, or that any future offering of securities will be successful.

 

We may seek additional financing which may result in the issuance of additional shares of our common stock and/or rights to acquire additional shares of our common stock. The issuance of our common stock in connection with such financing may result in substantial dilution to the existing holders of our common stock who do not have anti-dilution rights. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer adverse consequences if we are unable to obtain additional capital when needed.

 

OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE AFFECTED BY LIMITED TRADING VOLUME AND MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY.

 

There has been a limited public market for our common stock, and an active trading market for our common stock may not develop. As a result, this could reduce our shareholders’ ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations which could reduce the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

NEVADA LAW AND OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION MAY PROTECT OUR DIRECTORS FROM CERTAIN TYPES OF LAWSUITS WHICH COULD RESULT IN LIABILITY FOR DANIELS AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR LIQUIDITY OR OPERATIONS.

 

Nevada law provides that our officers and directors will not be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for all but certain types of conduct as officers and directors. Our Bylaws permit us broad indemnification powers to all persons against all damages incurred in connection with our business to the fullest extent provided or allowed by law. These exculpation provisions may have the effect of preventing stockholders from recovering damages against our officers and directors caused by their negligence, poor judgment or other circumstances. The indemnification provisions may require us to use our limited assets to defend our officers and directors against claims, including claims arising out of their negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.

 

IF WE FAIL TO MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROLS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCURATELY REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS. AS A RESULT, CURRENT AND POTENTIAL STOCKHOLDERS COULD LOSE CONFIDENCE IN OUR FINANCIAL REPORTING, WHICH COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

We are subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws. The Securities and Exchange Commission as required by Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal controls over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Since our election to be treated as an emerging growth company we are exempt from Section 404(b) which is an independent registered public accounting firm attesting to and reporting on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Our management may conclude that our internal controls over our financial reporting are not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may still decline to attest to our management’s assessment or may issue a report that is qualified if they are not satisfied with our controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us.

 

Our reporting obligations as a public company will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. If we fail to timely achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level. Moreover, effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the trading price of our common stock. Furthermore, we anticipate that we will incur considerable costs and use significant management time and other resources in an effort to comply with Section 404(a) and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As of the date of this prospectus we do not have an estimate of the costs to the company of compliance with the Act.

 

17

 

We are preparing for compliance with Section 404(a) by strengthening, assessing and testing our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. The process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404(a) is expensive and time consuming and requires significant management attention. We cannot be certain that these measures will ensure that we will maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Furthermore, as we rapidly grow our business, our internal controls will become more complex and will require significantly more resources to ensure our internal controls overall remain effective. Failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we or our auditors discover a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce the market’s confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price.

Item 2. Properties.

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory’s operational headquarters are located at Parker Towers, 104-60, Queens Boulevard, 12th Floor, Forest Hills, New York 11375. Our office space is provided by Arthur D. Viola, our sole officer, director, and controlling stockholder at a monthly rate of $2,025. As our business grows, we may be forced to move to other offices and pay rent. We believe that our existing facilities are adequate for our current needs for the foreseeable future and if additional space is needed, it would be available on favorable terms at an acceptable location.

Market Information and Holders

 

The shares of our common stock are not currently listed for sale on any exchange, although we do plan to attempt to have our shares quoted for sale on the “Pink Sheets” or the OTC Bulletin Board. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in having our shares quoted or traded on any public market.

  

The table below shows the high and low sales prices for our common stock for the periods indicated.

Since the company has not yet traded on the “Pink Sheets” or the OTC Bulletin Board there is no closing price of our common stock, and there were approximately 845 holders of record of our common stock. This number does not include stockholders for whom shares were held in “nominee” or “street name.”

 

Dividends

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently expect to retain any future earnings to fund the operation and expansion of our business.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, included elsewhere within this report. The Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements including statements using terminology such as “can”, “may”, “believe”, “designated to”, “will”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “potential” or “continue”, or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:

 

· discuss our future expectations;

 

· contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition; and

 

· state other “forward-looking” information.

 

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors,” “Business” and elsewhere in this report. All forward-looking statements and risk factors included in this document are made as of the date hereof, based on information available to us as of the date thereof, and we assume no obligations to update any forward-looking statement or risk factor, unless we are required to do so by law.

 

Organizational Overview

 

The company has a growth goal of providing advisory services to business services as well as non-business services client companies. The company works with companies seeking to create and/or acquire adjunct service businesses, whose services will initially provide better lifestyles for its existing workforce, and ultimately will be packaged, on an additional profit center basis, for sale to other small companies for the retention of their employees. The profits generated from all the financial consulting assignments will be available for venture investment in public or private client companies, as well as other quality business concept/operating companies, both public and private; through the Daniels’ Merchant Bank Division.

 

19

 

The Daniels Merchant Bank has an in-house equity funding program, whereby Daniels will participate in consulting client potential growth by helping finance the growth of public and private client, business service companies, as well as non-business service companies. The Merchant Bank will also participate in non-client potential growth by the purchase of equity in attractive small public companies whose growth strategies are in line with a philosophy of growth through leveraged acquisitions.

 

General

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements. which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Financial Reporting Release No. 60, published by the SEC, recommends that all companies include a discussion of critical accounting policies used in the preparation of their financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations and we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

We believe that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

 

The accounting policies identified as critical are as follows:

  

· Fair value of assets.

 

· Use of estimates

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are derived from research, development, qualification and production testing for certain commercial products.

Fair Value of Assets

 

The Company has adopted the standard FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 820) “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

· Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

· Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability; either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g. interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

· Level 3—Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include investments in available-for-sale securities and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company has also applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary source of liquidity has been expenses paid by Arthur D. Viola, our sole officer and director and controlling stockholder. No proceeds of this offering will be used to reimburse Mr. Viola; who will be reimbursed out of the gross profits of initial consulting assignments. As of November 30, 2017, we had ($3) in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of ($1,537,845).

 

21

 

Financing Activities

 

We will have to raise capital by means of borrowings or through a private placement or a subsequent registered offering. At present, we do not have any commitments with respect to future financings. If we are unable to raise adequate capital, in the near term, to finance all phases of a client corporate consulting assignment, our proposed business will experience slow growth because it will be very hard to compete for business without a sound capital base to support advisory and implementation efforts on our suggested corporate growth strategies.

 

At present, we do have sufficient capital on hand to fund very limited operations for the immediate future. Our consulting income on current and expected assignments (and continued support from Arthur D. Viola, our key officer and director, is believed to be sufficient to support current capital demands. Management estimates that we will need at least $2 million to fund client corporate development consulting projects over the next 12 months. However, even if limited funds are raised, consulting services can still be provided for Phase One of assignments, (the providing of consulting expertise). Phase Two, (the providing of short term capital to client companies), will have to be curtailed because of a limited capital raise or be provided by Mr. Viola and/or a joint-venture partner who will share in the potential revenues from Phase Two portions of any project. This joint-venture sharing will limit the amount of profit we can earn in any one project.

 

Limited growth prospects, because of lack of sufficient capital to implement results of corporate consulting assignments, may very well not produce sufficient profit to cover the costs that will now be incurred by Daniels Corporate Advisory. Legal and accounting expenses are significant for a reporting company and we will have to cover them out of limited consulting operations fees due to lack of adequate funding. This may place additional constraints on the growth prospects of Daniels Corporate Advisory as it may have to curtail added assignments for lack of adequate working capital to manage these new assignments. If sufficient capital is not raised over the next 12 months, the limited consulting assignments current available will not be sufficient to sustain our long-term operations as a public company, and we could fail.

 

Comparison of the Year Ended November 30, 2017 to the Year Ended November 30, 2016 Revenues

 

We did not generate any sales for the years ended November 30, 2017 and 2016. Lack of working capital to complete the due diligence on several promising candidates for subsidiary transactions and for acceptance of a quality client for a corporate strategy consulting assignment stalled our growth. The updating to a fully reporting company should allow creative financing options to be pursued that may alleviate the capital shortage and permit us to develop a promising subsidiary.

 

Operating Expenses

 

During the year ended November 30, 2017, we incurred $145,085 in expenses, compared to $158,188 in the same period ended November 30, 2016 a decrease of $13,103. The decrease in our operating expenses is generally related to the decline in our use of consulting and professional services during the year ended November 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year period.

 

Other Income and Expenses

 

During the year ended November 30, 2017, we incurred a net other expense of $136,459, compared to $216,024 in net other expense in the same period ended November 30, 2016 a decrease of $79,565. W e incurred interest expense charges of $80,402 and we recorded a derivative expense of $101,849 on convertible loans, as compared to interest charges of $298,516 and derivative expense of $0 in the prior year. Additionally, we recorded a gain of $23,792 resulting from the change in fair market value of derivative instruments, as compared to a gain of $99,362 resulting from the change in fair market value of derivative instruments in the prior year.

 

Net Income

 

The Company had a net loss for the year ended November 30, 2017 of ($281,544) compared to a net income of ($374,212) for the year ended November 30, 2016.

 

22

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Inflation

 

We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations for the two years ended November 30, 2017 and 2016, and since inflation rates have generally remained at relatively low levels our operations are not otherwise uniquely affected by inflation concerns.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying audited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate our continuance as a going concern. Our auditors, in their report dated July 13, 2018, have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as going concern. Our cash position may be inadequate to pay all of the costs associated with the testing, production and marketing of our products. Management intends to use borrowings and the sale of equity or convertible debt to mitigate the effects of its cash position, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required will be available. The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue existence.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

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

 

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

 

The financial statements and notes thereto and supplementary data required by this Item are presented beginning on page F-1 of this annual report on Form 10-K.

  

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2017. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2017 using the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2017, we determined that control deficiencies existed that constituted material weaknesses, as described below:

 

· lack of documented policies and procedures.

 

· we have no audit committee.

 

· there is a risk of management override given that our officers have a high degree of involvement in our day to day operations.

 

· there is no effective separation of duties, which includes monitoring controls, between the members of management.

 

Management is currently evaluating what steps can be taken in order to address these material weaknesses.

 

Accordingly, we concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by our internal controls.

 

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2017 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

 

Thayer O'Neal Company, LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, was not required to and has not issued a report concerning the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2017.

There was no change in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during our fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

 

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

 

Executive Officers

 

Our executive officers are elected by the Board of Directors and serve at the discretion of the Board. Our executive officers are as follows:

 

Name   Age   Position
Arthur D Viola   65 President, Chief Executive Officer, Acting Chief Financial Officer and Director

 

Biographical information for our executive officers is set forth below:

 

24

 

Arthur D. Viola has been our chairman, president, chief executive officer and a director since September, 2002. In 1981, Mr. Viola founded The Viola Group, Inc., a New York based public company which acquired, and managed private companies. In 2000, Mr. Viola engineered the merger of The Viola Group with an Internet Company at the height of the Internet Craze. Stockholders made a 900% return on invested capital. From 1990 to the present, Mr. Viola has served as senior partner of Daniels Corporate Advisory Co., a New York based private company, which is a predecessor of the registrant, and which advised and helped grow small public companies. Previously, Mr. Viola was involved in mergers and acquisitions as an AVP Corporate Finance/M&A Department of Bank of America, (1980-1982) as a Senior Acquisitions/Market-Planner at Gulf & Western (1978-1979) and as a Senior Acquisitions Analyst at Crane Co., (1975-1978) and was an account manager for Citibank, N.A. (1971-1974) in their Institutional Investment Management Department. Mr. Viola attended New York University (Advanced work in Corporate Mergers and Acquisitions) and the New York University Real Estate Institute for Real Estate Development. He received an MBA from Pace University (Financial Management & Accounting) and a BA from Iona College (Economics and Finance).

 

Audit Committee

 

The entire board of directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The board approves the selection of Daniels Corporate Advisory’s independent accountants and meets and interacts with the independent accountants to discuss issues related to financial reporting. In addition, the board reviews the scope and results of the audit with the independent accountants, reviews with management and the independent accountants Daniels Corporate Advisory’s annual operating results, considers the adequacy of Daniels Corporate Advisory’s internal accounting procedures and considers other auditing and accounting matters including fees to be paid to the independent auditor and the performance of the independent auditor.

  

Daniels Corporate Advisory has determined that Arthur D. Viola is a financial expert as defined by Section 407 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. However, Mr. Viola is not independent as that term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act. In order to be considered to be independent, a member of an audit committee of a listed issuer that is not an investment company may not, other than in his capacity as a member of the audit committee, our board of directors or any other board committee:

 

· Accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the issuer or any subsidiary thereof, provided that, unless the rules of the national securities exchange or national securities association provide otherwise, compensatory fees do not include the receipt of fixed amounts of compensation under a retirement plan (including deferred compensation) for prior service with the listed issuer (provided that such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service); or

 

· Be an affiliated person of the issuer or any subsidiary thereof.

 

Mr. Viola has acquired the status of financial expert through experience actively supervising a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant, auditor or person performing similar functions, and overseeing or assessing the performance of companies or public accountants with respect to the preparation, auditing or evaluation of financial statements.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

From time to time, one or more of Daniels Corporate Advisory’s affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that Daniels Corporate Advisory own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with Daniels Corporate Advisory with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of Daniels Corporate Advisory and other businesses with which Daniels Corporate Advisory’s affiliates are associated. Daniels Corporate Advisory affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither Daniels Corporate Advisory nor its stockholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

 

25

 

With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, hawse have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to Daniels Corporate Advisory at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.

 

Code of Ethics for Senior Executive Officers and Senior Financial Officers

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory has adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Executive Officers and Senior Financial Officers that applies to its president, chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, and all financial officers, including the principal accounting officer. The code provides as follows:

 

· Each officer is responsible for full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in all periodic reports and financial disclosures required to be filed by Daniels Corporate Advisory with the Securities and Exchange Commission or disclosed to Daniels Corporate Advisory’s stockholders and/or the public.

 

· Each officer shall immediately bring to the attention of the audit committee, or disclosure compliance officer, any material information of which the officer becomes aware that affects the disclosures made by Daniels Corporate Advisory in its public filings and assist the audit committee or disclosure compliance officer in fulfilling its responsibilities for full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in all periodic reports required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

  

· Each officer shall promptly notify Daniels Corporate Advisory’s general counsel, if any, or the president or chief executive officer as well as the audit committee of any information he may have concerning any violation of our Code of Business Conduct or Daniels Corporate Advisory’s Code of Ethics, including any actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships, involving any management or other employees who have a significant role in Daniels Corporate Advisory’s financial reporting, disclosures or internal controls.

 

· Each officer shall immediately bring to the attention of Daniels Corporate Advisory’s general counsel, if any, the president or the chief executive officer and the audit committee any information he may have concerning evidence of a material violation of the securities or other laws, rules or regulations applicable to Daniels Corporate Advisory and the operation of our business, by Daniels Corporate Advisory or any of its agents.

 

· Any waiver of this Code of Ethics for any officer must be approved, if at all, in advance by a majority of the independent directors serving on Daniels Corporate Advisory’s board of directors. Any such waivers granted will be publicly disclosed in accordance with applicable rules, regulations and listing standards.

 

We will provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of our Code of Ethics. Any such request should be directed to our corporate secretary at Parker Towers, 104-60, Queens Boulevard, 12th Floor, Forest Hills, New York 11375, telephone (347) 242-3148, or by e-mail at Onewallstreetn @aol.com.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership. These reporting persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such reports they file. To our knowledge, based solely on our review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations from certain insiders that no other reports were required, we believe there were no applicable reporting persons based on all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements with respect to transactions during the fiscal years ended November 30, 2017 and November 30, 2016.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

 

Executive Officer Compensation

 

At present Daniels Corporate Advisory has only one executive officer. The compensation program for future executives will consist of three key elements which will be considered by a compensation committee to be appointed:

 

· A base salary;

 

· A performance bonus; and

 

· Periodic grants and/or options of our common stock.

 

Base Salary . Daniels Corporate Advisory chief executive officer and all other senior executive officers receive compensation based on such factors as competitive industry salaries, a subjective assessment of the contribution and experience of the officer, and the specific recommendation by our chief executive officer.

  

Performance Bonus . A portion of each officer’s total annual compensation is in the form of a bonus. All bonus payments to officers must be approved by our compensation committee based on the individual officer’s performance and company performance.

 

Stock Incentive . Stock options are granted to executive officers based on their positions and individual performance. Stock options provide incentive for the creation of stockholder value over the long term and aid significantly in the recruitment and retention of executive officers. The compensation committee considers the recommendations of the chief executive officer for stock option grants to executive officers (other than the chief executive officer) and approves, disapproves or modifies such recommendation. See “Market Price of and Dividends on our Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans.”

 

Compensation to our officers and employees will be paid only when we have sufficient funds for that purpose. At present, we do not possess such funds.

 

Summary Compensation Table

 

The following table sets forth, for the last two fiscal years, the compensation earned for services rendered in all capacities by our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and the other highest-paid executive officers serving as such at the end of 2017 whose compensation for that fiscal year was in excess of $100,000. The individuals named in the table will be hereinafter referred to as the “Named Officers.” No other executive officer of Daniels Corporate Advisory received compensation in excess of $100,000 during fiscal years 2017 and 2016.

 

We currently have only one executive officer. Our tables reflect the total compensation accrued for the years indicated. The amounts consist of a base salary only for those periods. Due to operating limitations and results of operations during those periods listed there were no performance bonuses or grants of options and or stock incentives. This does not preclude future periods from including such amounts. There was no interest accrued on these amounts nor will we accrue interest on such amounts.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

 

The following table sets forth, as of November 30, 2017, the number and percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock beneficially owned by: (a) each person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock; (b) each of our directors; (c) the Named Executive Officers; and (d) all current directors and executive officers, as a group. As of July 13, 2018, there were 4,225,451,502 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person by reason of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at any particular date.

 

28

 

To our knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

Arthur D. Viola     31,185,000       0.7       100,000       100.0  
All directors and officers as a group (one person)     31,185,000       0.7       100,000       100.0  

 

* Less than one percent.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of these shareholders is c/o Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc., Parker Towers, 104-60, Queens Boulevard, 12th Floor, Forest Hills, New York 11375. Also, unless otherwise indicated, each person named in the table above has the sole voting and investment power with respect to his shares of our common stock beneficially owned.

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. As of July 13, 2018, there 4,225,451,502 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.

 

The 100,000 shares of our super voting preferred stock, as amended, owned by Arthur D. Viola gives him the power to vote 66 and 2/3 percent shares of the share vote necessary for any issue requiring a common stock vote.

  

The voting rights of our common stock contained in our preferred stock along with the 31,185,000 common shares will provide Mr. Viola with voting rights equal to 2,848,033,419   shares of our common stock. As a result, Arthur D. Viola is able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval including the election of directors, merger or consolidation and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent acts that would result in a change of control, which in turn could reduce the market price of our common stock.

 

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

 

Transactions with Related Persons

 

The Audit Committee (entire board) of our Board is responsible for oversight and review of any related person transactions. We have no related person transactions that require disclosure under this section.

 

29

 

Director Independence

 

The Board has determined that Mr. Viola is independent (or similarly designated) based on the Board’s application of the standards and rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC or the Internal Revenue Service, as appropriate.

 

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

 

The following table presents the estimated aggregate fees billed by Thayer O'Neal Company, PLLC for services performed during our last two fiscal years.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors of

Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc. ("the Company") as of November 30, 2017 and 2016 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of November 30, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended November 30, 2017 and 2016, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles

 

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. 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 financial position of the Company as of November 30, 2017 and 2016 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the period ended November 30, 2017 and 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Matter of Emphasis

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities that 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 5. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DANIELS CORPORATE ADVISORY COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 AND NOVEMBER 30, 2016

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc. (“Daniels” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 2, 2002. The Company was organized to offer: (a) corporate financial consulting and (b) merchant banking services for public and private client companies interested in implementing Daniels developed, agreed upon, accelerated growth strategies; including MBO/LBO, Roll-up Transactions. Merchant banking includes equity funding of the growth of client and service companies, as well as funding equity of small public companies. The business became a subsidiary in late 2003 as a result of INfe Human Resources, Inc. (a publicly quoted Nevada Company) acquiring the common stock of Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc. During August 24010, INfe Human Resources, Inc. underwent a name change to Rhino Human Resources, Inc., but is still public and trades under the same (original) stock symbol: “IFHR.”

 

The company has a growth goal of providing advisory services to business services as well as non-business services client companies. The company works with companies seeking to create and/or acquire adjunct service businesses, whose services will initially provide better lifestyles for its existing workforce, and ultimately will be packaged, on an additional profit center basis, for sale to other small companies for the retention of their employees. The profits generated from all the financial consulting assignments will be available for venture investment in public or private client companies, as well as other quality business concept/operating companies, both public and private; through the Daniels’ Merchant Bank Division.

 

The Daniels Merchant Bank has an in-house equity funding program, whereby Daniels will participate in consulting client potential growth by helping finance the growth of public and private client, business service companies, as well as non-business service companies. The Merchant Bank will also participate in non-client potential growth by the purchase of equity in attractive small public companies whose growth strategies are in line with a philosophy of growth through leveraged acquisitions.

 

The Company formed on October 11, 2013 Daniel’s Logistics Inc. a wholly owned operating subsidiary in the field of logistics was incorporated in the state of Nevada to take advantage of niche operating opportunities and possible acquisitions in the logistics field. During the quarter ending May 31, 2015 the Company discontinued these operations until further analysis could be done on the overall effectiveness of all Company operations.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation:

 

We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. We believe these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented.

 

Election to be treated as an emerging growth company:

 

For the five-year period starting in the first quarter of 2012, Daniels if continuing eligibility applies has elected to use the extended transition period now available for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b) (1). This election allows Daniels to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of the Company still being eligible, the Daniels financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

36

 

 

FASB Codification:

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, (“Codification”) effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. This statement establishes the Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles used in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Codification does not replace or affect guidance issued by the SEC or its staff. As a result of the Codification, the references to authoritative accounting pronouncements included herein in this Annual Report now refer to the Codification topic section rather than a specific accounting rule as was past practice.

 

Use of Estimates:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risk and Uncertainties:

 

Our future results of operations and financial condition will be impacted by the following factors, among others: our lack of capital resources, dependence on third-party management to operate the companies in which we invest and dependence on the successful development and marketing of any new products in new and existing markets. Generally, we are unable to predict the future status of these areas of risk and uncertainty. However, negative trends or conditions in these areas could have an adverse effect on our business.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

 

For financial statement presentation purposes, short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash accounts at several financial institutions, which at times may exceed the insurable FDIC limit, but management believes that there is little risk of loss.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

 

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced a framework for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the standard for those financial assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year and the impact of adoption was not significant. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 ” Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” (ASC 820) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

  Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
   
  Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability; either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g. interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
   
  Level 3—Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

37

 

 

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include investments in available-for-sale securities and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company has also applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Investments:

 

Our investments consist of common stock of publicly quoted companies and are valued based on the closing stock price. We account for our investments in accordance with ASC Topic 320, Investments . We have designated our investments at November 30, 2017 and 2016 as available-for-sale and reported these investments at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). We determined the fair value of these investments based on the closing quoted stock price on November 30, 2017 and 2016. We base the cost of the investment sold on the specific identification method using market rates.

 

Comprehensive Income:

 

ASC Topic 220 (SFAS No. 130) establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events from non-owner sources. Per the consolidated financial statements, the Company has purchased available-for-sale securities that are subject to this reporting.

 

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment:

 

All of our non-marketable and other investments are subject to a periodic impairment review. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary.

 

When events or changes in circumstances indicate that long-lived assets other than goodwill may be impaired, an evaluation is performed to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. When an asset is classified as held for sale, the asset’s book value is evaluated and adjusted to the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. In addition, depreciation and amortization ceases while it is classified as held for sale.

 

The indicators that we use to identify those events and circumstances include:

 

  the investee’s revenue and earnings trends relative to predefined milestones and overall business prospects;
   
  the general market conditions in the investee’s industry or geographic area, including regulatory or economic changes;
   
  factors related to the investee’s ability to remain in business, such as the investee’s liquidity, debt ratios, and the rate at which the investee is using its cash; and
   
  the investee’s receipt of additional funding at a lower valuation. If an investee obtains additional funding at a valuation lower than our carrying amount or a new round of equity funding is required for the investee to remain in business, and the new round of equity does not appear imminent, it is presumed that the investment is other than temporarily impaired, unless specific facts and circumstances indicate otherwise.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

 

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

 

38

 

 

Revenue and Cost Recognition:

 

The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc., generates revenues as a result of corporate financial consulting services which are recognized as services are performed. Daniels also operates a merchant banking division. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not generate any revenues.

 

Fixed Assets:

 

Fixed assets acquired would be reported at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized.

 

Financing Fees:

 

Financing fees were being amortized over the life of the related liability on the straight-line method which is not materially different than using the effective interest method. All amortization has been expensed since the ongoing staffing operations have discontinued from which the finance fees were originally accrued.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share 

 

The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) according to the provisions of ASC Topic 260, which requires the presentation of basic EPS and, for companies with complex capital structures, diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders, adjusted by other changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares, by the weighted number of common shares and common share equivalents (unless their effect is antidilutive) outstanding. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive. Thus, these equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share, resulting in basic and diluted loss per share being equal.  

 

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company currently rents space from Arthur Viola, CEO and shareholder. This is a month to month rental and there is no commitment beyond each month. The monthly rent expense is $2,025.

 

Effective December 15, 2015, Mr. Viola entered into a $685,000 convertible promissory note agreement with the Company and forgave all remaining amounts outstanding at that time. The note matures on December 15, 2018 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Mr. Viola has the option to convert any portion of the unpaid principal balance into the Company’s common shares at any time.

 

During 2016, our President Arthur Viola infused $10,200 in advances for working capital. These funds were advanced interest free with no payback terms of twelve months and one day. No repayments have been made against these advances as of November 30, 2017.

 

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS

 

Investments consist of a portfolio of common stocks trading on the OTC: BB. Investments held as other assets as long term investments had fair market values of $0 and $5,900 at November 30, 2017 and November 30, 2016, respectively.

 

Cash Equivalents are marketable securities that are available-for-sale and not deemed long term investments by the Company. During the periods ended November 30, 2017 and 2016, there were no available-for-sale securities sold and gross realized (losses) gains on these sales were zero. For purpose of determining gross realized gains, the cost of securities when sold is based on the FIFO method of valuation. Net unrealized holding losses on available-for-sale securities both in cash and investments was $5,900 and $2,126, respectively, for November 30, 2017 and November 30, 2016 and have been included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

39

 

 

NOTE 5 - GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Currently, the Company has recurring operating losses, and as of November 30, 2017 the Company had a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the Company’s capital requirements will depend on many factors including the success of the Company’s development efforts and its efforts to raise capital. Management also believes the Company needs to raise additional capital for working capital purposes. There is no assurance that such financing will be available in the future. The conditions described above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Commitments:

 

The Company currently has no long-term commitments.

 

Contingencies:

 

None

 

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

 

As of November 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $8,169,535 in net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes which expire between 2018 and 2034. Generally, these can be carried forward and applied against future taxable income at the tax rate applicable at that time. We are currently using a 21% effective tax rate for our projected available net operating loss carry-forward. However, as a result of potential stock offerings and stock issuance in connection with potential acquisitions, as well as the possibility of the Company not realizing its business plan objectives and having future taxable income to offset, the Company’s use of these NOLs may be limited under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company is in the process of evaluating the implications of Section 382 on its ability to utilize some or all of its NOLs.

 

Components of deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are as follows:

 

    30-Nov-17   30-Nov-16
Net operating loss carry forwards valuation available   $ 8,169,535     $ 7,887,991  
                 
Valuation Allowances     8,169,535       7,887,991  
Deferred Tax Asset   $     $  

 

The effective tax rate is as follows:

 

Statutory Federal Rate     21 %
Effect of Valuation Allowance     (21 %)
Effective Rate     0 %

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”, valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets, if based on the weight of available evidence, some or all of the deferred tax assets may or will not be realized. The Company has evaluated its ability to realize some or all of the deferred tax assets on its balance sheet and has established a valuation allowance in the amount of the full NOL at November 30, 2017. The Company did not utilize any NOL deductions for the full fiscal year ended November 30, 2017.

NOTE 9 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815, which requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded in the balance sheets either as assets or liabilities at fair value.

 

The Company’s derivative liability is an embedded derivative associated with one of the Company’s convertible promissory notes. The convertible promissory notes were issued at various times but with similar terms and are therefore being termed as one instrument for this footnote, (the “Note”), is a hybrid instruments which contain an embedded derivative feature which would individually warrant separate accounting as a derivative instrument under Paragraph 815-10-05-4. The embedded derivative feature includes the conversion feature to the Note. Pursuant to Paragraph 815-10-05-4, the value of the embedded derivative liability has been bifurcated from the debt host contract and recorded as a derivative liability resulting in a reduction of the initial carrying amount (as unamortized discount) of the notes, which are amortized as debt discount to be presented in other (income) expenses in the statements of operations using the effective interest method over the life of the notes.

 

The embedded derivative within the note have been valued using the Black Scholes approach, recorded at fair value at the date of issuance; and marked-to-market at each reporting period end date with changes in fair value recorded in the Company’s statements of operations as “change in the fair value of derivative instrument”.

 

As of November 30, 2017 and November 30, 2016, the estimated fair value of derivative liability was determined to be $362,091 and $284,034, respectively. During the year to date net additional derivative liabilities of $101,849 were recognized. The change in the fair value of derivative liabilities for the year ended November 30, 2017 was $23,792 resulting in an aggregate gain on derivative liabilities.
