Starco Brands, Inc. (formerly Insynergy Products, Inc.) (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 26, 2010, to engage in Direct Response marketing of consumer products with the goal of producing sales through television and/or retail. On September 7, 2017 the Company filed an Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to change the corporate name to Starco Brands, Inc. The Board determined the change of the Company’s name was in the best interests of the Company due to changes in our current and anticipated business operations. In July 2017 the Company entered into a licensing agreement with The Starco Group, located in Los Angeles, California. The Company intends to focus our marketing efforts on certain novel consumer products manufactured by The Starco Group. The Starco Group is predominantly an aerosol and liquid fill private label manufacturer which manufactures DIY/Hardware, paints, coatings and adhesives, household, air care, disinfectants, automotive, motorcycle, arts & crafts, personal care cosmetics, personal care FDA, sun care, food, cooking oils, beverage, spirits and wine.

Certain matters discussed herein are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to:

These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as we “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate” or words of similar meaning. Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which are described in close proximity to such statements and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are only made as of the date of this Form 10-K, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

In 2016, Insynergy Products, Inc. now Starco Brands, Inc. (“the Company”) abandoned the business plan of marketing consumer products through television distributed infomercials. In July 2017, our Board of Directors entered into a licensing agreement with The Starco Group, located in Los Angeles, California, to pursue a new strategic marketing plan involving commercializing leading edge products with the intent to sell them through brick and mortar retailers as well as through online retailers. Management believes the Company will realize modest earnings from royalties in the short term with a stronger positive outlook over the next 24 months.

Starco Brands, Inc. is now a company whose mission is to create behavior-changing products and brands. Our core competency is inventing brands, marketing, building trends, pushing awareness and social marketing. The licensing agreement with The Starco Group provided Starco Brands with exclusive royalty-free rights to a body of products in the following categories: food, household cleaning, air care, spirits and personal care. The Starco Group is predominantly an aerosol and liquid fill private label manufacturer with manufacturing assets in the following verticals: DIY/Hardware, paints, coatings and adhesives, household, air care, disinfectants, automotive, motorcycle, arts & crafts, personal care cosmetics, personal care FDA, sun care, food, cooking oils, beverage, spirits and wine.

The current CEO of The Starco Group, Ross Sklar, was named the CEO of Starco Brands in August of 2017. Mr. Sklar has a long track record of commercializing technology in industrial and consumer markets. Mr. Sklar has built teams of manufacturing personnel, R&D and sales and marketing professionals over the last 20 years and has grown The Starco Group into a successful and diversified manufacturer supplying a wide range of products to some of the largest retailers in the United States.

The Company has conducted extensive research and has identified specific channels to penetrate with its new portfolio of novel technologies. The Company has begun to execute this vision and has launched the first product line called ‘Breathe ™’, through our manufacturing partner, The Starco Group. The Company has applied for a registered trademark for Breathe with the United States Patent and Trade Office. Breathe is an environmentally-friendly line of household cleaning aerosol products. It is the world’s first aerosol household cleaning line to be approved by the EPA’s Safer Choice program. This product line is biodegradable and is propelled by nitrogen, which makes up approximately 80% of the earth’s breathable air. The Company launched the line with Wegmans, a $7 billion grocery retailer recognized as an innovative leader among retailers. The Breathe line is currently on shelves in all Wegmans stores. The Company has begun to implement an online sales strategy and Breathe is now available on Amazon. The Company is now executing a national sales program and Breathe is currently being presented to many national retailers in the United States.

To secure assistance with marketing and logistics for our products, The Starco Group, recently entered into a distribution and sales agreement with United Natural Foods, Inc. (“UNFI”), an $8 billion dollar distributor. UNFI is currently marketing our new Breathe household cleaning line. UNFI has access to over 15,000 retail stores that the Company plans to access over the next 36 months. In addition, the Company plans to launch other products in air care, food, personal care, spirits and beverages over the next 60 months. Although the initial market reception to Breathe has been encouraging, the Company may encounter a number of hurdles that could prevent this and future product launches from achieving sustained commercial success.

Management has engaged a third party to evaluate the Company’s new business plan and to provide a valuation opinion based on the projected sales over the course of a 10-year period. Based on this pro forma third-party valuation, the Company established a series of seed financing rounds to raise capital through the issuance and sale of the Company’s common stock. We currently have no plans for a public offering of our stock and such stock sales will likely be exempt from the registration requirements provided by federal and state securities laws. The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs and the available exemptions to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The Company started its Seed financing on August 18, 2017 and closed it by October 25, 2017, raising a total of $600,000. The Company may engage in subsequent funding rounds later in 2018. Our intent is to use most of the capital raised for sales, marketing and compliance.

The Company’s ultimate goal is to become a leading supplier in the consumer marketplace through the introduction of innovative and unique products and brands whose success is expected to increase shareholder value. The Company will continue to evaluate this and other opportunities to further set its strategy for 2018, 2019 and 2020.

The Company currently has no full-time employees but uses independent contractors on an as needed basis.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this Item.

Our principal offices are located at 250 26^thStreet, Suite 200, Santa Monica, California, 90402. We also rent space at 2501 West Burbank Blvd, Suite 201, Burbank, California, 91505. In December 2015, the Company entered into a three-year lease, starting January 1, 2016, with Burbank Properties, L.P. for 1,957 square feet of office space. Current monthly lease payments are $3,527 with yearly increases during the term of the lease. The lease also provides an option to extend the lease for an additional three years upon expiration of the current lease term. The lease may be terminated with a 10-day written notice from the landlord for violation of the lease terms. The Company considers the space to be adequate for the next several years.

Item 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our common stock is listed to trade on the OTC Markets Group OTCQB tier under the symbol “STCB.” The following table presents the range of the high and low trading prices of our common stock for each quarter of the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 as reported by the OTC Markets adjusted for the reverse of our outstanding common stock. Bid and ask quotations are available when there are two or more market makers and those quotations represent prices between dealers and may not include retail markups, markdowns, or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

Our shares are subject to Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the “penny stock” rule. The rule defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of the security. Accredited investors, in general, include individuals with assets in excess of $1,000,000 (not including their personal residence) or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse, and certain institutional investors. The rules require the broker-dealer to receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase and require the broker-dealer to deliver a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock prior to the first transaction. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the security. Finally, monthly statements must be sent to customers disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks.

As of March 13, 2018, we had 151 shareholders of record, which does not include shareholders who hold shares in “street accounts” of securities brokers.

On December 14, 2017, the Board approved a 1 for 30 reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock. The split was approved by FINRA and effective February 20, 2018. As a result of the reverse the 72,527,068 outstanding shares of common stock were reversed to 2,417,569 shares of outstanding shares on that date.

We have not paid cash or stock dividends and have no present plan to pay any dividends, intending instead to reinvest our earnings, if any. For the foreseeable future, we expect to retain any earnings to finance the operation and expansion of our business and the payment of any cash dividends on our common stock is unlikely.

On April 4, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors determined it was in the best interest of the Company to issue additional shares to Paul Bershin and Alan Diamante in consideration for funds previously loaned to the Company and converted to common stock. Accordingly, the Company issued 127,053 shares of common stock to Paul Bershin at $0.90 per share and issued 161,546 shares of common stock to Alan Diamante at $0.90 per share. As the notes have been previously converted to equity in a prior period, the stock issuance, which was valued at $259,739, was expensed and recorded as a loss in the accompanying statement of operations. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On April 4, 2017, the Company authorized the issuance of 2,272,727 shares of common stock to Paul Bershin and 1,515,151 shares of common stock to Alan Diamante for cash proceeds of $150,000 and $100,000, respectively. As of March 26, 2018, the shares have not yet been issued by the transfer agent.

On August 18, 2017, the Company authorized the issuance of 2,272,727 shares of common stock for $150,000 cash. As of March 26, 2018, the shares have not yet been issued by the transfer agent. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On August 25, 2017, the Company authorized the issuance of 1,208,784 shares of common stock to our President, Ross Sklar, in consideration for his forfeiture of warrants to purchase 1,116,667 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company obtained a valuation of the stock price on August 25, 2017 from a third-party valuation firm. The valuation determined that the value of the stock was $0. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

In October 2017, the Company received $200,000 from three investors for the purchase of 3,030,303 shares of common stock. As of March 26, 2018 the shares have not yet been issued by the transfer agent. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On March 1, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 30,400,000 post-reverse shares of common stock to 16 third parties in consideration for services valued at $8,208. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On March 1, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 117,282,442 post-reverse shares of common stock to our directors and officers in consideration for services valued at $31,666. The Company issued 97,182,442 post-reverse shares to Ross Sklar; 18,000,000 post-reverse shares to Sanford Lange; 2,000,000 post-reverse shares to Martin Goldrod, and 100,000 post-reverse shares to Rachel Boulds. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On March 1, 2018, per the terms of the August 4, 2017, settlement and general release agreement with Carwash, LLC, the Company issued warrants to purchase 666,666 shares of common stock. The warrants are being issued on a post-reverse basis at an exercise price of $1.05 per shares for a period of five years. The Company relied on an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

The Company did not repurchase any of its securities during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

The registrant is a smaller reporting company, pursuant to Rule 229.10(f)(1), and is not required to report this information.

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

Results of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016

The following information should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

For the year ended December 31, 2017 the Company recorded initial Breathe product licensing revenue of $8,185. For the year ended December 31, 2016 the Company recorded revenue of $426,154, net of returns and allowances of $19,811. In 2016 $388,013 of revenue was from the accrued product returns and allowance account. This revenue was not from sales in 2016. It was from sales made in 2015 and held in reserve in the event of subsequent returns. Cost of goods sold was $503,946, $373,512 of which was a result of the impairment of all remaining finished and work in process inventory of Plumber’s Hero. Comparisons of 2017 results to 2016 results are limited due to the fact that the Company’s business model, cost structure and capital structure were fundamentally changed in mid-2017. Revenues under the new business model did not begin until the second half of 2017.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, compensation expense decreased $24,196 to $258,515 compared to $282,711 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease is due to the change in management during the third quarter.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred $5,763 in advertising and promotional expense as compared to $36,820 for the prior year, a decrease of $31,057, or 85.3%. In the prior year, there was substantial spending on promotional activities for the Plumber’s Hero. There have been no such expenditures in the current period as we have discontinued this line of business.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred $85,824 in professional fees compared to $63,444 in the prior year, an increase of $22,380, or 35.5%. Professional fees are mainly for accounting, auditing and legal services associated with our quarterly filings as a public company. The increase is primarily due to the timing of billed audit fees and additional informational filings with the SEC.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred $340,565 in general and administrative expense as compared to $245,719 for the prior year, an increase of $94,846, or 38.6%. The increase is due to additional expenses related to our change in management, financing and our new business plan. We incurred $72,843 of license branding expense, additional director and officer liability insurance costs of approximately $28,000, and financing costs of $25,000.

For the year ended December 31, 2017 we had total other expense of $45,921 compared to total other expense of $7,375 for the year ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded interest income of $79, other income from sub leasing its office space of $9,000 and a gain on extinguishment of debt of $253,774. This was offset by interest expense of $49,035 and a loss on conversion of debt of $259,739. In 2016 we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $20,435 offset by interest expense of $7,319 and a loss on disposal of $20,461.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a net loss of $728,403 as compared to a net loss of $714,031 in the prior year, an increase of $14,372.

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $16,098,391 at December 31, 2017, had a net loss of $728,403 and net cash used in operating activities of $596,975 for year ended December 31, 2017.

We currently require cash of about $35,000 a month for operating expenses. Operating expenses include items such as insurance, legal and other professional fees, compliance, website maintenance, and investor and public relations.

We have an outstanding loan of approximately $300,000 from initial invested capital that requires monthly interest payments of $2,545.

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 the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 2 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

We recognize deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax return consequences of those differences, which are expected to be either deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Future tax benefits have been fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance as management is unable to determine that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized.

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company 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.

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act - The Company has evaluated Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 regarding the impact of the decreased tax rates of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act. See “Note 11 – Income Taxes” in the notes to our financial statements for schedules that describe the new rates adjusted for the period of enactment.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires restricted cash to be presented with cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows and disclosure of how the statement of cash flows reconciles to the balance sheet if restricted cash is shown separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-18 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfer of Assets Other than Inventory, which requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. ASU 2016-16 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 provides guidance for targeted changes with respect to how cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its statements of cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09, which amends several aspects of accounting for employee share-based payment transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, and classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update and noted that it has had no material impact.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its financial statements.

In May 2014, August 2015, April 2016 and May 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09 (ASC Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ASU 2015-14 (ASC Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Deferral of the Effective Date, ASU 2016- from Contracts with Customers, ASU 2015-14 (ASC Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Deferral of the Effective Date, ASU 2016-10 (ASC Topic 10 (ASC Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, and ASU 2016-12 (ASC Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, and ASU 2016-12 (ASC Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. It also requires entities to disclose both quantitative and qualitative information that enable financial statements users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amendments in these ASUs are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. This standard may be applied process of assessing the impact, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.

Statements of Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Starco Brands, Inc., (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

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.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has recurring losses, negative working capital and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is unable to obtain financing, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company.

(the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 26, 2010, to engage in Direct Response marketing of consumer products with the goal of producing sales through television and/or retail. On September 7, 2017 the Company filed an Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to change the corporate name to Starco Brands, Inc. The Board determined the change of the Company’s name was in the best interests of the Company due to changes in our current and anticipated business operations. In July 2017 the Company entered into a licensing agreement with The Starco Group, located in Los Angeles, California. The Company intends to focus our marketing efforts on the novel consumer products manufactured by The Starco Group. The Starco Group is predominantly an aerosol and liquid fill private label manufacturer which manufactures DIY/Hardware, paints, coatings and adhesives, household, air care, disinfectants, automotive, motorcycle, arts & crafts, personal care cosmetics, personal care FDA, sun care, food, cooking oils, beverage and spirits and wine.

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the estimated useful lives of property and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. As of December 31, 2017, the Company’s cash balance exceeds the FDIC limit.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents for the year ended December 31, 2017 or 2016.

Revenues that have been recognized but not yet received are recorded as accounts receivable. Losses on receivables will be recognized when it is more likely than not that a receivable will not be collected. An allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts will be recognized to reduce the amount of receivables to its net realizable value. The allowance for uncollectible amounts is evaluated quarterly.

The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. 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 three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

Level 1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s notes payable approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at December 31, 2017.

Property and equipment are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. All Property and equipment with a cost of $2,000 or greater are capitalized. Major betterments that extend the useful lives of assets are also capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three years.

The Company follows paragraph 605-15-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition when the right of return exists. 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) The seller's price to the buyer is substantially fixed or determinable at the date of sale, (ii) The buyer has paid the seller, or the buyer is obligated to pay the seller and the obligation is not contingent on resale of the product. If the buyer does not pay at time of sale and the buyer's obligation to pay is contractually or implicitly excused until the buyer resells the product, then this condition is not met., (iii) The buyer's obligation to the seller would not be changed in the event of theft or physical destruction or damage of the product, (iv) The buyer acquiring the product for resale has economic substance apart from that provided by the seller. This condition relates primarily to buyers that exist on paper, that is, buyers that have little or no physical facilities or employees. It prevents entities from recognizing sales revenue on transactions with parties that the sellers have established primarily for the purpose of recognizing such sales revenue, (v) The seller does not have significant obligations for future performance to directly bring about resale of the product by the buyer, and (vi) The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated.

The Company records an allowance for sales returns. The allowance is based on multiple criteria, including type of store, history of returns, length of time since product was sold to the customer and inventory remaining with customer (if known). The allowance will be evaluated and adjusted accordingly on a quarterly basis.

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 fiscal 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 fiscal 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 Income 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”) with regards to uncertainty income taxes. 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. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.

We account for equity-based transactions with nonemployees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). ASC 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of common stock issued for payments to nonemployees is measured at the market price on the date of grant. The fair value of equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, we recognize the fair value of the equity instruments issued as deferred stock compensation and amortize the cost over the term of the contract.

We account for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered.

Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially outstanding common shares assumes that the Company incorporated as of the beginning of the first period presented.

The Company expenses the cost of advertising and promotional materials when incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 advertising costs were $5,763 and $36,820, respectively.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to the presentation used in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09, which amends several aspects of accounting for employee share-based payment transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, and classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its financial statements. The Company has evaluated the impact of this accounting standard update and noted that it has had no material impact.

The accompanying 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. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $16,098,391 at December 31, 2017, had a net loss of $728,403 and net cash used in operating activities of $628,175 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock and/or debt financing is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. These conditions and the ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

During 2017 the Company embarked on a new strategy to ensure the Company can operate as a going concern; although there are no assurances that any of these measures will be successful. The Company has raised $600,000 in seed financing to embark on its new strategy. Management is analyzing and beginning to execute new potential growth paths.

Furniture fixtures and equipment, stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation at December 31 consisted of the following:

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company determined that it would no longer be using tooling that had been capitalized at $59,995. Accordingly, the Company has determined that carrying amount of such asset is not recoverable and has written it down to $0, resulting in a loss on disposal of $20,461 for the year ended December 31, 2016.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company determined that it would no longer be using certain equipment that had been capitalized at $20,702. Accordingly, the Company has determined that carrying amount of such asset is not recoverable and has written it down to $0. There was no loss on the disposal as the assets had already been fully depreciated.

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $0 and $14,839, respectively.

A portion of the Company’s accounts payable is the result of chargebacks for product that was not sold by a former customer. The Company also has other payables that are several years old for which management is in discussion with the vendors to settle those liabilities for a lesser amount.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company owed $21,400 on a loan payable. The loan was uncollateralized, non-interest bearing and due on demand. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company was able to extinguish the debt resulting in a gain on extinguish the debt of $21,400.

The Company also has two financing loans for its Director and Officer Insurance. As of December 31, 2017, the loans have a balance of $33,158 and $0, respectively. They bear interest at 3.7% and are due within one year.

The Company currently occupies office space in Burbank, California. The Company signed a three-year lease starting January 1, 2016. Current monthly lease payments are $3,527 with yearly increases. The lease required a deposit of $3,500 which was paid on December 10, 2015. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has accrued rent due of $13,949.

On July 9, 2014, the Board of Directors approved an investment arrangement with an individual. Per the terms of the agreement, the investor transferred $150,000 to the Company for which he was entitled to the following: $1 per unit sold of a fitness product through all retail outlets including online and retail shopping shows until the investment was paid back in full. Once the original investment was recouped the investor shall then receive a 2% royalty in perpetuity on all future retail sales of the fitness product. The investment remains with the Company and is disclosed as an accrued liability on the balance sheet. Since the product for which the investment was intended was never produced this agreement is being renegotiated.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, Sanford Lang, Chairman (former CEO) advanced the Company $60,715 to pay for general operating expenses. The advances are uncollateralized, non-interest bearing and due on demand.

On December 31, 2016, Chase Products Co. forgave $298,738 of accounts payable due to them. The amounts were credited to additional paid in capital. Ross Sklar, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors is also a Board member of Chase Products Co.

On December 31, 2016, Sanford Lang, CEO and Martin Goldrod, COO each forgave $287,095 and $101,085, respectively of accrued salary. The amounts were credited to additional paid in capital.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Sanford Lang, the Company’s Chairman and former CEO, advanced the Company $289,821 to pay for general operating expenses. The advances are uncollateralized, require a monthly interest payment of $2,545 and due on demand.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Martin Goldrod, COO forgave $21,920 of accrued salary. The amount was credited to additional paid in capital.

On December 31, 2017, the Company credited $68,100 to paid in capital for an amount due to a former employee. The amount due had exceeded the statute of limitations for requiring it to remain a liability of the company.

As December 31, 2017, the Company owed The Starco Group, Inc, (“TSG”) $72,843 for expenses paid by The Starco Group on behalf of the Company for expenses to launch licensed brands. Once royalties exceed $250,000 in the aggregate, TSG will deduct the incurred expenses from the subsequent royalty payments until TSG is paid in full.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized $8,185 of royalty revenue from The Starco Group.

On August 4, 2017, the Company executed a settlement and general release agreement with Carwash, LLC. Per the terms of that agreement the Company will issue warrants to purchase common stock equal to 1.333% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The warrants will have an exercise price of $1.05 and a term of five years. The aggregate fair value of the warrants totaled $5,468 based on the Black Scholes Merton pricing model using the following estimates: exercise price of $0.35, 1.82% risk free rate, 27.47% volatility and expected life of the options of five years.

A summary of the status of the Company’s outstanding stock warrants and changes during the periods is presented below:


	Shares available to purchase with warrants			Weighted Average Price			Weighted Average Fair Value
Outstanding, December 31, 2015	1,700,000		$	6.9		$	0.186

On December 31, 2016, two of the Company’s creditors converted their loans totaling $299,000 of principal and $2,000 of interest into 43,623 shares of common stock. The shares were issued at $6.90. No gain or loss was recognized on the conversion.

On April 4, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors determined it was in the best interest of the Company to issue additional shares to Paul Bershin and Alan Diamante in consideration for funds previously loaned to the Company. Accordingly, the Company issued 127,053 shares of common stock to Paul Bershin at $0.90 per share and issued 161,546 shares of common stock to Alan Diamante at $0.90 per share. As the notes have been previously converted to equity in a prior period, the stock issuance, which was valued at $259,739, was expensed and recorded as a loss on conversion of debt in the accompanying statement of operations.

On April 4, 2017, the Company received $250,000 from two of its investors for the purchase of 3,787,879 shares of common stock at $0.066 per share. As of December 31, 2017, the shares have not yet been issued; therefore, the $250,000 has been credited to a stock payable account.

On August 18, 2017, the Company received $150,000 from an investor for the purchase 2,272,727 shares of common stock at $0.066 per share. As of December 31, 2017, the shares have not yet been issued; therefore, the $150,000 has been credited to a stock payable account.

On August 25, 2017, the Company authorized the issuance of 1,208,784 shares of common stock to our CEO, Ross Sklar, in consideration for his forfeiture of warrants to purchase 1,116,667 shares of the Company’s common stock. This transaction was originally accounted for under ASC 718-20-35-8. The Company accounted for the stock issuance based on the incremental cost of the fair value over the fair value of the cancelled warrants on the date of cancellation. The aggregate fair value of the warrants cancelled totaled $855,814 based on the Black Scholes Merton pricing model using the following estimates: exercise price of $0.23, 2.00% risk free rate, 31.91% volatility and expected life of the options of 8.06 years. The fair value of the shares issued was $4,351,624 based on the closing price of the stock of $0.12 on August 25, 2017, resulting in a net increase in fair value of $3,495,810 as of September 30, 2018. The Company subsequently obtained a valuation of the stock price on August 25, 2017 from a third-party valuation firm. The valuation determined that the value of the stock was $0. The Company reversed the accounting on the original entry during the fourth quarter so that no additional expense was recognized on the shares issued.

In October 2017, the Company received $200,000 from investors for the purchase of 3,030,303 shares of common stock at $0.066 per share. As of December 31, 2017, the shares have not yet been issued; therefore, the $150,000 has been credited to a stock payable account.

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has evaluated Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 regarding the impact of the decreased tax rates of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The U.S. federal income tax rate of 26% is being used due to the new tax law recently enacted.

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax income from continuing operations for the period ended December 31, due to the following:

At December 31, 2017, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $4,662,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2017 to 2035. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2017 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal Income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.

Management has evaluated subsequent events pursuant to the requirements of ASC Topic 855, from the balance sheet date through the date the financial statement were issued, and has determined that no material subsequent events exist.

On December 14, 2017, the Board approved a 1 for 30 reverse stock split. The split was approved by FINRA and effective February 20, 2018. All shares throughout these financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse split.

On February 26, 2018, the Board approved the issuance of 117,282,442 to its officers and directors for services rendered at a price per share of $0.00027.

On February 26, 2018, the Board approved the issuance of 30,300,000 to various service providers at a price per share of $0.00027.

Item 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The disclosure controls and procedures ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Our management is responsible to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible to design or supervise a process that provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The policies and procedures include:

maintenance of records in reasonable detail to accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets,

reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors, and

reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period December 31, 2017. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the fiscal year December 31, 2017, our internal control over financial reporting were not effective at that reasonable assurance level. The following aspects of the Company were noted as potential material weaknesses:

During the fourth quarter of 2017, management made several changes to internal control that will improve our separation of duties, accounting processes and oversight.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting because as a smaller reporting company we are not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

The following table sets forth the names and ages of our current directors and named executive officers. Our bylaws require at least four directors to serve until the earlier occurrence of the election of his or her successor at the next meeting of stockholders, death, resignation or removal by the Board of Directors. Our executive officers are appointed by our board of directors and serve at its discretion. There are no family relationships among our directors, executive officers, director nominees.

Officers, directors and ten-percent or greater beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based upon a review of those forms and representations regarding the need for filing for the year ended December 31, 2017, we believe all necessary forms have been filed.

We do not have a standing nominating committee for directors, nor do we have an audit committee with an audit committee financial expert serving on that committee. Our entire board of directors, including Messrs. Sanford, Goldrod and Sklar, act as our nominating and audit committee.

Except as indicated by footnote, the persons named in the table below have sole voting power and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 150,000,011 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 13, 2018.

The following information summarizes transactions we have either engaged in for the past two fiscal years or propose to engage in, involving our executive officers, directors, more than 5% stockholders, or immediate family members of these persons. These transactions were negotiated between related parties without “arm’s length” bargaining and, as a result, the terms of these transactions may be different than transactions negotiated between unrelated persons.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Martin Goldrod, COO forgave $21,920 of accrued salary. The amount was credited to additional paid in capital.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized $8,185 of royalty revenue from The Starco Group, Inc.

On February 26, 2018, the Board approved the issuance of 117,282,442 to its officers and directors for services rendered at a price per share of $0.00027.

At this time the Company does not have a policy that its directors or a majority be independent of management. The Company has at this time only three directors. It is the intention of the Company to implement a policy in the future that a majority of the Board member be independent of the Company’s management as the members of the board of director’s increases after implementation of the Company’s business plan.

The following table presents the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years by Haynie & Company, our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, in connection with the audit of our financial statements and other professional services rendered by those accounting firms.

Tax fees represent professional services rendered by the accounting firm for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

All other fees represent fees billed for products and services provided by the accounting firm, other than the services reported for the other three categories.

Our audit committee makes recommendations to our board of directors regarding the engagement of an auditor. Our board of directors approves the engagement of the auditor before the firm renders audit and non-audit services. Our audit committee does not rely on pre-approval policies and procedures.

The audited financial statements of Starco Brands, Inc. are included in this report under Item 8 on pages 16 to 30.
