(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION
Car Charging Group Inc. (“CCGI”) was incorporated on October 3, 2006 under the laws of the State of Nevada as New Image Concepts, Inc. On November 20, 2009, New Image Concepts, Inc. changed its name to Car Charging Group, Inc.
Car Charging, Inc., was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on September 3, 2009. Car Charging Inc. was created to develop electric charging service facilities for the electric vehicle (EV) automobile market. Pursuant to its business plan, Car Charging Inc. (or its affiliates) acquires and installs EV charging stations, and shares servicing fees received from customers that use the charging stations with the property owner(s), on a property by property basis. Car Charging, Inc., therefore, enters into individual arrangements for this purpose with various property owners, which may include, cities, counties, garage operators, hospitals, shopping-malls and facility owner/operators.
During February 2011, the Shareholders and Board of Directors authorized a decrease of our issued and outstanding common stock, in the form of a reverse stock-split, on a one-for-fifty (1:50) basis (the “Reverse Stock-Split”). There was no change to the authorized amount of shares or to the par value. All share and per share amounts included in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the effects of the Reverse Stock-Split.
Merger
On December 7, 2009, CCGI entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Car Charging, Inc. (“CCI”)
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, CCGI agreed to issue an aggregate of 10,000,000 restricted shares of CCGI's common stock and 10,000,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the CCI Shareholders in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of CCI.
The merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. CCI is the acquirer for accounting purposes and CCGI is the issuer. Accordingly, CCGI’s historical financial statements for periods prior to the acquisition became those of the acquirer retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares issued in the merger. Operations prior to the merger are those of CCI. From inception on September 3, 2009 until the merger date, December 7, 2009, CCI had minimal operations with no revenues. Earnings per share for the period prior to the merger are restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares outstanding.
The consolidated financial statements consist of CCGI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to herein as the “Company” or “Car Charging.” All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 13, 2011.
DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company is a development stage company as defined by ASC 915-10 “ Development Stage Entities .” The Company is still devoting substantially all of its efforts on establishing the business and its planned principal operations have not commenced. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
EV CHARGING STATIONS
EV Charging Stations represents the depreciable cost of charging devices that have been installed on the premises of participating owner/operator properties. They are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of three years. Upon sale, replacement or retirement, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in consolidated statements of income. The Company held approximately $141,000 and $156,000 in EV charging stations that were not placed in service as of March 31,2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The Company will begin depreciating this equipment when installation is substantially complete. Depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2011and 2010, and for the period from September 3, 2009 (inception) through March 31, 2011 was $16,285, and $0, and $27,390, respectively.
In December 2010, management determined that EV Charging Stations that were previously recorded as inventory would be used for future installations and reclassified $72,768 in inventory to EV Charging Stations.
OFFICE AND COMPUTER EQUIPMENT
Office and computer equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of five years. Upon sale or retirement of furniture and fixtures, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in consolidated statements of income. Depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from September 3, 2009 (inception) through March 31, 2011 was $1,673, and $ 1,140 and $7,045, respectively.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company has adopted paragraph 360-10-35-17 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for its long-lived assets. The Company’s long-lived assets, which include EV Charging Stations, office and computer equipment and security deposit, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
The Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives. The Company determined that there were no impairments of long-lived assets as of March 31, 2011 .
DISCOUNT ON DEBT
The Company allocated the proceeds received from convertible debt instruments between the underlying debt instruments and has recorded the conversion feature as a liability in accordance with paragraph 815-15-25-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The conversion feature and certain other features that are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision have been recorded at their fair value within the terms of paragraph 815-15-25-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The conversion liability is marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown on the Statement of Operations.
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company evaluates its convertible debt, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with paragraph 810-10-05-4 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and paragraph 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the Statement of Operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.
In circumstances where the embedded conversion option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s convertible notes payable approximates the fair value of such instrument based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangement at March 31, 2011.
The Company revalues its derivative liability at every reporting period and recognizes gains or losses in the consolidated statement of operations that are attributable to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability. The Company has no other assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company will recognize 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 services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Accordingly , when a customer completes use of a charging station , the service can be deemed rendered and revenue may be recognized
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION FOR OBTAINING EMPLOYEE SERVICES
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees and directors pursuant to paragraphs 718-10-30-6 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, whereby all transactions in which services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more readily measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
The Company’s policy is to recognize compensation cost for awards with service conditions and when applicable a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
EQUITY INSTRUMENTS ISSUED TO PARTIES OTHER THAN EMPLOYEES FOR ACQUIRING GOODS OR SERVICES
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of section 505-50-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC Section 505-50-30”). Pursuant to FASB ASC Section 505-50-30, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
INCOME TAXES
The Company follows Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. 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.
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 740-10-25”). Section 740-10-25.addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period.
The following table shows the weighted-average number of potentially outstanding dilutive shares excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, as they were anti-dilutive (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock-Split):

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company will evaluate subsequent events through the date when the financial statements were issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
3. GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a retained deficit of $10,140,159 at March 31, 2011, with a net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $2,370,583 and net cash used in operating activities of $352,081 for the three month period then ended, respectively. In addition, debt maturing during 2011 will be approximately $325,000 (includes short-term debt referred to in the subsequent events note below). The Company has earned no revenues since inception. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan, including installation of charging stations throughout the United States, provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
4. NOTE PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDER
On March 14, 2011, the Company borrowed $125,000 from its principal shareholder, Ze’ evi Group, Inc. The note bears interest of 12% which is payable at maturity, June 14, 2011.
5. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible notes payable bear interest of 6% annually which is payable upon maturity on September, 25 2011. The notes have a conversion price of $.0025.
During June, 2010, $5,000 of these notes was converted to 40,000 common shares.
During July, 2010, $10,000 of these notes was converted to 80,000 common shares.
During January, 2011. $4,000 of these notes was converted to 32,000 common shares.
During March, 2011, $50,000 of these notes together with $4,441 of accrued interest were converted to 21,776,544 common shares
On March 18, 2011, the Company issued 21,776,544 common shares pursuant to the conversion of $50,000 in notes payable together with $4,441of accrued interest. This conversion was negotiated to mitigate the effect of the 1:50 Reverse-Split on the note conversion price which Management determined could have significantly dilutive effects. The conversion of the remaining $31,000 of convertible notes, together with interest thereon, is subject to further negotiation with the holders, however, all remaining note holders have agreed that the original conversion rate of $.0025 will remain fixed regardless of the Reverse-Split. Accordingly, if the balance of the notes were converted on a similar fixed basis, the Company would issue approximately 12,400,000 additional common shares.
Upon their origination these notes were determined to have had full reset adjustments based upon the issuance of equity securities by the Company in the future, This feature subjected the notes to derivative liability treatment under Section 815-40-15 of the FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“Section 815-40-15”) (formerly FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 07-5). The notes have been measured at fair value using a lattice model at each reporting periods with gains and losses from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities recognized on the consolidated statement of operations. The convertible notes gave rise to a derivative liability which was recorded as a discount to the notes upon origination.
The agreements between the Company and the note holders to fix the conversion rate stated in the convertible notes effectively removed the embedded derivative from the convertible notes as future conversions are no longer subject to reset. Accordingly the derivative liability related to the notes was adjusted to $0 at March 31, 2011 and the Company recognized a gain on the change in value of the derivative liability of $2,701,894 for the three months then ended. The Company recognized a gain of $2,214,894 on the change in derivative liability during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
6. COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS
Subscription warrants
In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, on December 7, 2009 the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement for the sale of 61,333 units of securities of the Company aggregating $920,000. As of May 5, 2010, 3,834 additional units aggregating $57,500 were issued under similar terms as the December 7, 2009 subscription agreement.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has evaluated all events that occurred after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2011 through the date when these financial statements were filed to determine if they must be reported. Management reports that the Company has initiated a series of short-term loans intended to provide adequate cash flow while it works toward a long-term financing and revenue solution. In this connect the Company has entered into $200,000 in 30 day loans at 10%. Management has determined that the were no other reportable subsequent event to be reported.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
The following provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. Car Charging Group, Inc. (formerly, New Image Concepts, Inc.) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement on December 7, 2009, with Car Charging, Inc. New Image Concepts Inc was a development stage entity that had a failed business plan and Car Charging Inc., formed on September 3, 2009, to develop a market to service electric vehicle charging. Following the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company intends to identify and acquire the best possible auto charging devices and install them on properties (large garages, shopping-malls, hospitals, cities, and the like) owned by third parties, which through LLC (CCGI subsidiaries) arrangements, share in service revenue generated from customer charging station use. Such use is not anticipate in any significant volume until sometime after the third calendar quarter of 2011, when automobile manufacturers are scheduled to mass produce and sell electric vehicles to the public.
The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.
To date, the Company’s operations have been devoted primarily to developing a business plan, identifying acquisition target companies, raising capital for future operations, initial contracts with property owner/operators and administrative functions. The Company intends to grow through internal development and selected acquisitions. The ability of the Company to achieve its business objectives is contingent upon its success in raising additional capital until adequate revenues are realized from operations.
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011
Our net operating loss during the three months ended March 31, 2011 is attributable to the fact that we have not derived any revenue from operations to offset our business development expenses. Losses from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 amounted to $950,846, which primarily consists of compensation expense of $647,520 (including consulting fees of $523,813 - $483,583 of this consulting expense represents the non-cash estimated cost of warrants that were issued for services during the period), Promotion expense of $ 93,500, and Public / Investor Relations expense of approximately $24,000.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, management has entered into agreements to install EV devices at five locations and is in the process of hiring additional sales staff and negotiating additional potential installation sites.
During this three month period the change in the Company’s liability related to embedded derivative transactions resulted in a gain on change in fair value of $ 3,333,490. In March 2011, the Company entered into agreements with the remaining convertible notes holders to fix the conversion rate of the convertible notes. These agreements effectively removed the embedded derivative from the convertible notes as future conversions are no longer subject to reset. Accordingly the derivative liability related to the notes was adjusted to $0 at March 31, 2011 and the Company recognized a gain on the change in value of the derivative liability of $2,701,894 from the convertible notes for the three months then ended. The Company recognized an additional gain of approximately $631,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 from the change in the embedded derivative liability related to subscription and success warrants.
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010
Our net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2010, is attributable to the fact that we have not derived any revenue from operations to offset our business development expenses. Losses from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 amounted to $329,650, which primarily consists of compensation expense of $201,642 and Public / Investor Relations expense of $258,540. During these three months management has entered into agreements to install EV devices at three locations and is process of hiring additional sales staff and negotiating additional potential installation cites.
During this three month period the change in the Company’s liability related to embedded derivative transactions resulted in a gain on change in fair value of $2,408,648.
PERIOD FROM SEPTEMBER 3, 2009 (DATE OF INCEPTION) THROUGH MARCH 31, 2011
Our cumulative net operating loss since inception is attributable to the fact that we have not derived any revenue from operations to offset our business development expenses. Losses from operations since inception have amounted to $10,140,159 (including non-cash charges of $8,044,097 which is the estimate value of warrants and common stock issued for services) primarily consisting of consulting ($851,954), professional fees ($204,317) and public/investor relations fees ($570,018). The Company’s officers and staff have initiated a number of negotiations to install the selected charging stations (currently supplied by Coulomb Technologies, a California corporation which was founded in 2007) through-out the United States and Europe. Manufacture and supply of electric vehicles that will require utilization of the Company’s services is not anticipated to be significant until the last calendar quarter of 2011; this gives the Company adequate time to develop its distribution plan, but also requires that the Company continue to develop capital sources.
Our cumulative liability related to embedded derivative transactions resulted in a liability of $134,374 as of March 31, 2011. The Company evaluates its convertible debt, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with paragraph 810-10-05-4 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and paragraph 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the Statement of Operations as other income or expense ($3,333,490 gain for the three months ended March 31, 2011). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has financed its activities from sales of capital stock of the Company and from loans from unrelated and related parties. A significant portion of the funds raised from the sale of capital stock has been used to cover working capital needs such as office expenses and various consulting and professional fees.
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we used cash of $352,081 and $311,814 for operations, respectively and $2,219,801 since inception. Such cash use and accumulated losses have resulted primarily from costs related to various consulting and professional fee and costs incurred in connection with capital transactions. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, cash used for investing activities consisted of $107,289 for purchases of electric charging stations and as compared with the purchases of office equipment of $1,681 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Cash provided by financing activities was $125,000 from a short-term note payable during the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to no cash provided or used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The net decrease in cash during the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $334,370 as compared with a net decrease of $313,495 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Since its inception, the Company has used cash for investing activities of $298,747 for the purchase of office equipment and Electric Charging Stations and the Company has received cash provided by financing activities of $225,000 from notes payable and $2,333,046 from sales of common stock.
Management believes that additional funding will be necessary in order for the Company to continue as a going concern. Significant additional capital or debt must be incurred to develop the Company’s business plan (that is, the acquisition and installation of charging stations prior to the generation of service revenue). The Company is investigating several forms of private debt and/or equity financing, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in procuring such financing or that it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to generate profits, or unable to obtain additional funds for its working capital needs, it may have to cease operations.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was conducted by the registrant’s chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2011. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the registrant’s controls and procedures were ineffective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the registrant files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. If the registrant develops new business or engages or hires a new chief financial officer or similar financial expert, the registrant intends to review its disclosure controls and procedures.
Management is aware of the lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert. Although our board of directors serves as the audit committee it has no independent directors. Further, we have not identified an audit committee financial expert on our board of directors. These factors are counter to corporate governance practices as defined by the various stock exchanges and may lead to less supervision over management.
The was no change in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a–15 or Rule 15d–15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the registrant's last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting
