NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2013
NOTE A
– SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is as follows.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of July 31, 2013 and for the three month periods ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures provided are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and explanatory notes for the year ended April 30, 2013 as disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for that year as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Specialty Reports, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Business
Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (“Sparta” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”), since May 2010, has concentrated its efforts on developing and marketing vehicle history reports, over the internet, and mobile apps for vehicle dealers and other market segments. Historically, the Company had been in the business as an originator and indirect lender for consumer retail installment loans and consumer lease financing for the purchase or lease of new and used motorcycles (specifically 550cc and higher) and utility-oriented 4-stroke all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). These consumer financing products were discontinued during the fiscal year ending April 30, 2013 (see Discontinued Operations). The Company continues to offer a leasing program for municipalities.
The results of operations for the three months ended July 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year ending April 30, 2014.
Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Discontinued Operations
As discussed in NOTE C, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs, and a portion of its portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The operating results related to these lines of business have been included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of loss for all periods presented.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues from history report and mobile app products are recognized on a cash basis.
The Company’s leases, which are included in Discontinued Operations, are accounted for as either operating leases or direct financing leases. At the inception of operating leases, no lease revenue is recognized and the leased motorcycles, together with the initial direct costs of originating the lease, which are capitalized, appear on the balance sheet as “motorcycles under operating leases-net”. The capitalized cost of each motorcycle is depreciated over the lease term, on a straight-line basis, down to the Company’s original estimate of the projected value of the motorcycle at the end of the scheduled lease term (the “Residual”). Monthly lease payments are recognized as rental income.
SPARTA COMMETRCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2013
Direct financing leases are recorded at the gross amount of the lease receivable (principal amount of the contract plus the calculated earned income over the life of the contract), and the unearned income at lease inception is amortized over the lease term.
The Company’s Retail Installment Sales Contracts (“RISC”) , which are included in Discontinued Operations, are secured by liens on the titles to the vehicles. The RISCs are accounted for as loans. Upon purchase, the RISCs appear on the Company’s balance sheet as RISC loan receivable current and long term. Interest income on these loans is recognized when it is earned.
The Company realizes gains and losses as the result of the termination of leases, both at and prior to their scheduled termination, and the disposition of the related motorcycle. The disposal of motorcycles, which reach scheduled termination of a lease, results in a gain or loss equal to the difference between proceeds received from the disposition of the motorcycle and its net book value. Net book value represents the residual value at scheduled lease termination. Lease terminations that occur prior to scheduled maturity as a result of the lessee’s voluntary request to purchase the vehicle have resulted in net gains, equal to the excess of the price received over the motorcycle’s net book value.
Early lease terminations also occur because of (i) a default by the lessee, (ii) the physical loss of the motorcycle, or (iii) the exercise of the lessee’s early termination. In those instances, the Company receives the proceeds from either the resale or release of the repossessed motorcycle, or the payment by the lessee’s insurer. The Company records a gain or loss for the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value of the motorcycle.
Inventories
Inventories, which are included in Discontinued Operations, are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method and with market defined as the lower of replacement cost or realizable value.
Website Development Costs
The Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, “
Accounting for Website Development Costs.”
As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses.
Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the accompanying financial statements, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided using the asset and liability method for financial reporting purposes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10, “
Accounting for Income Taxes”
. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be removed or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740-10
, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,”
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, treatment of interest and penalties, and disclosure of such positions. As a result of implementing ASC 740, there has been no adjustment to the Company’s financial statements and the adoption of ASC 740 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ending April 30, 2013 or the three months ended July 31, 2013.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted ASC 820,
“Fair Value Measurements”.
ASC 820 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets the lowest priority to unobservable inputs to fair value measurements of certain assets and Liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:
SPARTA COMMETRCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2013
·
|
Level 1 —
Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
|
·
|
Level 2 —
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
|
·
|
Level 3 —
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value measurements. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques based on significant unobservable inputs, as well as management judgments or estimates that are significant to valuation.
|
This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. For some products or in certain market conditions, observable inputs may not always be available.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance ASC 360-10, “
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
” long-lived assets, such as property, equipment, motorcycles and other vehicles and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows or quoted market prices in active markets if available, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
Comprehensive Income
In accordance with ASC 220-10, “
Reporting Comprehensive Income
,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220-10 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. At July 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013, the Company has no items of other comprehensive income.
Segment Information
The Company adopted ASC 280-10 “
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
”. ASC 280-10 establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in consolidated financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein, materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company's principal operating segments.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs and a portion of its portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The operating results related to these lines of business have been included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of loss for all periods presented. As these lines of business were discontinued during the fiscal year ending April 30, 2013, the Company has discontinued segment reporting.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company adopted ASC 718-10, which records compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the explicit service period of three to five years.
SPARTA COMMETRCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2013
ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of valuation for share-based awards. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk free interest rate.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives of major depreciable assets are as follows:
Advertising Costs
The Company follows a policy of charging the costs of advertising to expenses incurred. During the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred $2,500 and $2,000 in advertising costs, respectively.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company uses ASC 260-10, “
Earnings Per Share,
” for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Per share basic and diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders amounted to $0.04 and $0.12 for the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At July 31, 2013 and 2012, 5,076,396 and 4,721,308 potential shares, respectively, were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per share.
Liquidity
As shown in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $634,004 and $1,061,981 during the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company had a negative net worth of $3,926,924 at July 31, 2013.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior periods’ data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported losses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or applications to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE C – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs and a portion of its portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

The Company had financed certain of its leases and RISCs through two third parties. The repayment terms are generally one year to five years and the notes are secured by the underlying assets. The weighted average interest rate at July 31, 2013 is 15.29%.
|
(b)

On October 31, 2008, the Company purchased certain loans secured by a portfolio of secured motorcycle leases (“Purchased Portfolio”) for a total purchase price of $100,000. The Company paid $80,000 at closing, $10,000 in April 2009 and agreed to pay the remaining $10,000 upon receipt of additional Purchase Portfolio documentation. As of April 30, 2013, no such documents have been received. Proceeds from the Purchased Portfolio started accruing to the Company beginning November 1, 2008. To finance the purchase, the Company issued a $150,000 Senior Secured Note dated October 31, 2008 (“Senior Secured Note”) in exchange for $100,000 from the holder. Terms of the Senior Secured Note require the Company to make semi-monthly payments in amounts equal to all net proceeds from Purchased Portfolio lease payments and motorcycle asset sales received until the Company has paid $150,000 to the holder. To finance the purchase, the Company issued a $150,000 Senior Secured Note dated October 31, 2008 (“Senior Secured Note”) in exchange for $100,000 from the holder. Terms of the Senior Secured Note require the Company to make semi-monthly payments in amounts equal to all net proceeds from Purchased Portfolio lease payments and motorcycle asset sales received until the Company has paid $150,000 to the holder. The Company was obligated to pay any remainder of the Senior Secured Note by November 1, 2009 which was extended to May 1, 2013, and has granted the note holder a security interest in the Purchased Portfolio. On January 31, 2013, the holder converted $50,000 of the outstanding balance of the Note into 60,606 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. The note, which had an outstanding balance of $14,337 at July 31, 2013, has been extended to October 13, 2013.

The Company's derivative financial instruments consist of embedded derivatives related to the outstanding short term Convertible Notes Payable. These embedded derivatives include certain conversion features indexed to the Company's common stock. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the derivatives and related items at their fair values as of the inception date of the Convertible Notes Payable and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. In addition, under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in Entity's Own Equity ("ASC 815-40"), as a result of entering into the Convertible Notes Payable, the Company is required to classify all other non-employee stock options and warrants as derivative liabilities and mark them to market at each reporting date. Any change in fair value inclusive of modifications of terms will be recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each reporting date. If the fair value of the derivatives is higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives is lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record non-operating, non-cash income.
The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities of warrants outstanding at July 31, 2013 was calculated with the following average assumptions, using a Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

NOTE H – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows the guidance established pursuant to ASC 820 which established a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes the following three levels of inputs that may be used:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs when there is little or no market data available, thereby requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
The table below summarizes the fair values of financial liabilities as of July 31, 2013:

NOTE K
– GOING CONCERN MATTERS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements during the period July 1, 2004 (date of inception) through July 31, 2013, the Company incurred loss of $41,625,662. Of these losses, $634,004 was incurred in the three months ending July 31, 2013. These factors among others may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations. Management is devoting substantially all of its efforts to developing its business and raising capital and there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will be successful. However, there can be no assurance can be given that management’s actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its liquidity problems. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In order to improve the Company’s liquidity, the Company’s management is actively pursuing additional equity financing through discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional equity financing.
ITEM 2
. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with (1) our interim unaudited financial statements and their explanatory notes included as part of this quarterly report, and (2) our annual audited financial statements and explanatory notes for the year ended April 30, 2013 as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for that year as filed with the SEC.
“Forward-Looking” Information
This report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent our expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to statements concerning the Company’s expected growth. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date such statement was made. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Discontinued Operations
As discussed in NOTE C to the consolidated financial statements, in August 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs, and a portion of its portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.
The operating results related to these lines of business have been included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of loss for all periods presented. The following table presents summarized operating results for those discontinued operations.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Three Months Ended July 31, 2013 to the Three Months Ended July 31, 2012
For the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, we have generated limited sales revenues, have incurred significant expenses, and have sustained significant losses
Revenues
Revenues totaled $136,116 during the three months ended July 31, 2013 as compared to $110,364 during the three months ended July 31, 2012. This $25,753 (23%) increase in revenues was due to increased sales of mobile apps with sales of history reports being relatively unchanged from the same period last year
Costs and Expenses
Cost of goods sold increased 8.56% from $34,613 to $37,577 which percentage increase was less than our 23% increase in revenues resulting in an increase in our gross profit margin to 72% in the current quarter from 68% in the quarter ended July 31, 2012. General and administrative expenses were $470,986 during the three months ended July 31, 2013, compared to $598,134 during the three months ended July 31, 2012. The $127,148 (21.%) decrease was primarily due to a $60,821 (26%) decrease in employee compensation from $230,036 to $169,215 and a $49,479 (51%) decrease in rent and utilities from $96,943 to $47,464.
Net Loss from continuing operations
We incurred a net loss from continuing operations and before preferred dividends and non-controlling interest of $593,714 for our three months ended July 31, 2013 as compared to a net loss of $853,836 for the corresponding interim period in 2012, a $260,120 (30%) decrease. The decrease in our net loss before preferred dividends for our three month interim period ended July 31, 2013 was attributable primarily to the decrease in general and administrative expenses discussed above, a $99,121 (57%) decrease in amortization of debt discount, a $32,102 (72%) decrease in non-cash finance costs, a $7,304 (7%) decrease in interest expense and financing costs, net, a $3,336 (19%) increase in other income partially offset by a $31,750 (111%) increase in the change in the non-cash charge for fair value of derivative liabilities, aided by the $22,789 (30%) increase in gross profit.
Net loss from discontinued operations
Our net loss from discontinued operations for the quarter ended July 31, 2013 was $10,620 as compared to a net loss of $168,312 for the three months ended July 31, 2012, a $157,692 (94%) decrease.
Our net loss attributable to common stockholders
We incurred non-cash preferred dividend expense of $39,334 and $39,764, respectively for our three month periods ended July 31, 2013 and 2012.
Our net loss attributable to common stockholders decreased to $634,004 for our three month period ended July 31, 2013 as compared to a net loss of $1,061,981 for the corresponding period in 2012. The $427,977 or 40% decrease in net loss attributable to common stockholders for our three month period ended July 31, 2013 was due primarily to the factors described above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
As of July 31, 2013, we had a negative net worth of $3,936,924. We generated a deficit in cash flow from operating activities of $399,460 for the three months ended July 31, 2013. This deficit is primarily attributable to our net loss attributed to common stockholders of $634,004, partially offset by, other non-cash charges including: depreciation of $2,421, amortization of debt discount of $75,491, equity based compensation of $61,007, stock based finance cost of $12,333 and changes in the value of derivative liabilities of $60,248, and to changes in the balances of current assets and liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $57,051, receivables increased $79,339, and other assets decreased by $15,652.
We met our cash requirements during the three month period through net proceeds from the sale of common in the amount of $299,664 and net proceeds from convertible notes of $164,500 and other notes of $25,000. We repaid $112,500 in notes and we repaid $1,238 of notes to a director of the Company. Additionally, we have received limited revenues from our discontinued leasing and financing activities, and have received fees from our municipal lease program, as well as from our continuing operations. We do not anticipate incurring significant research and development expenditures, and we do not anticipate the sale or acquisition of any significant property, plant or equipment, during the next twelve months. At July 31, 2013, we had 10 full time employees. If we are able to fully implement our business plan, we anticipate our employment base may increase by approximately 30% during the next twelve months. As we continue to expand, we will incur additional cost for personnel. This projected increase in personnel is dependent upon our obtaining sources of financing originating loans and leases and generating revenues there from. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required or generating revenues sufficient to fund the projected increase in the number of employees.
We continue seeking additional financing, which may be in the form of senior debt, subordinated debt or equity. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required to support our operations. We estimate that we will need approximately $1,500,000 in addition to our normal operating cash flow to conduct operations during the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that additional private or public financing, including debt or equity financing, will be available as needed, or, if available, on terms favorable to us. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and such additional equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our existing common or preferred stock. Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility. However, if we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, and we will have to adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited scale.
The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant. Our operations are located in North America and there are no seasonal aspects that would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
GOING CONCERN ISSUES
The independent auditors report on our April 30, 2013 and 2012 consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report states that the Company’s historical losses and the lack of revenues raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, due to the losses incurred and its lack of significant operations. If we are unable to develop our business, we have to discontinue operations or cease to exist, which would be detrimental to the value of the Company’s common stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will develop and provide us with significant cash to continue operations.
In order to improve the Company’s liquidity, the Company’s management is actively pursuing additional financing through discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional financing.
We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to develop profitable operations. We are devoting substantially all of our efforts to developing our business and raising capital. Our net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
The primary issues management will focus on in the immediate future to address this matter include: seeking institutional investors for debt or equity investments in our Company; short term interim debt financing: and private placements of debt and equity securities with accredited investors.
To address these issues, we are negotiating the potential sale of securities with investment banking companies to assist us in raising capital. We are also presently in discussions with several institutions about obtaining additional credit facilities.
INFLATION
The impact of inflation on the costs of the Company, and the ability to pass on cost increases to its customers over time is dependent upon market conditions. The Company is not aware of any inflationary pressures that have had any significant impact on the Company’s operations over the past quarter, and the Company does not anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact on future operations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company does not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements nor does it participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair value accounting treatment.
TRENDS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise.
Our annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, most of which are outside our control, including: the demand for our products and services; seasonal trends in purchasing; price competition or pricing changes in the market; technical difficulties or system downtime; general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the consumer financing sector.
Our annual results may also be significantly impacted by the impact of the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or other matters. Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results may fall below our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.
Our future performance and success is dependent upon the efforts and abilities of our management. To a very significant degree, we are dependent upon the continued services of Anthony L. Havens, our President and Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors. If we lost the services of either Mr. Havens, or other key employees before we could get qualified replacements, that loss could materially adversely affect our business. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our management.
Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in our management affairs. Our bylaws provide, however, that our directors shall have no liability to us or to our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except with respect to (1) a breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) liability which may be specifically defined by law or (4) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
We may experience growth, which will place a strain on our managerial, operational and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and manage growth if it occurs, we must devote management attention and resources to improve our financial strength and our operational systems. Further, we will need to expand, train and manage our sales and distribution base. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively manage our existing operations or the growth of our operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support any future growth. Our ability to manage our operations and any future growth will have a material effect on our stockholders.
If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board 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 trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely 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.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policies involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues from our history report and mobile apps products are recognized on a cash basis.
Our Retail Installment Sales Contracts (“RISCs”), which are included in Discontinued Operations, are secured by liens on the titles to the vehicles. The RISCs are accounted for as loans. Upon purchase, the RISCs appear on our balance sheet as RISC loans receivable current and long term. When the RISC is entered into our accounting system, based on the customer's APR (interest rate), an amortization schedule for the loan on a simple interest basis is created. Interest is computed by taking the principal balance times the APR rate then divided by 365 days to get your daily interest amount. The daily interest amount is multiplied by the number of days from the last payment to get the interest income portion of the payment being applied. The balance of the payment goes to reducing the loan principal balance.
Our leases, which are included in Discontinued Operations, are accounted for as either operating leases or direct financing leases. At the inception of operating leases, no lease revenue is recognized and the leased motorcycles, together with the initial direct costs of originating the lease, which are capitalized, appear on the balance sheet as "motorcycles under operating leases-net". The capitalized cost of each motorcycle is depreciated over the lease term, on a straight-line basis, down to the original estimate of the projected value of the motorcycle at the end of the scheduled lease term (the "Residual"). Monthly lease payments are recognized as rental income. An acquisition fee classified as fee income on the financial statements is received and recognized in income at the inception of the lease. Direct financing leases are recorded at the gross amount of the lease receivable, and unearned income at lease inception is amortized over the lease term.
We realize gains and losses as the result of the termination of leases, both at and prior to their scheduled termination, and the disposition of the related motorcycle. The disposal of motorcycles, which reach scheduled termination of a lease, results in a gain or loss equal to the difference between proceeds received from the disposition of the motorcycle and its net book value. Net book value represents the residual value at scheduled lease termination. Lease terminations that occur prior to scheduled maturity as a result of the lessee's voluntary request to purchase the vehicle have resulted in net gains, equal to the excess of the price received over the motorcycle's net book value.
Early lease terminations also occur because of (i) a default by the lessee, (ii) the physical loss of the motorcycle, or (iii) the exercise of the lessee's early termination. In those instances, we receive the proceeds from either the resale or release of the repossessed motorcycle, or the payment by the lessee's insurer. We record a gain or loss for the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value of the motorcycle. We charge fees to manufacturers and other customers related to creating a private label version of our financing program including web access, processing credit applications, consumer contracts and other related documents and processes. Fees received are amortized and booked as income over the length of the contract.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted ASC 718-10, which records compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the explicit service period of three to five years.
ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of valuation for share-based awards. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk free interest rate.
Allowance for Losses
Included in our Discontinued Operations, the Company maintains loss reserves for its portfolio of Leases and for its portfolio of Retail Installment Sales Contracts (“RISC”). The allowance for Lease and RISC losses is increased by charges against earnings and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). To the extent actual credit losses exceed these reserves, a bad debt provision is recorded; and to the extent credit losses are less than the reserve, additions to the reserve are reduced or discontinued until the loss reserve is in line with the Company’s reserve ratio policy. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past lease and RISC experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. The Company periodically reviews its Lease and RISC receivables in determining its allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company charges-off receivables when an individual account has become more than 120 days contractually delinquent. In the event of repossession, the asset is immediately sent to auction or held for release.
