CHASE PACKAGING CORPORATION

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2010

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

 

Chase Packaging Corporation (“the Company”), a Texas corporation, previously manufactured woven paper mesh for industrial applications, manufactured polypropylene mesh fabric bags for agricultural use, and distributed agricultural packaging manufactured by other companies.

 

Since January 1, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company has been devoting its efforts to establish a new business and, accordingly, the Company is considered to be a development stage company in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915.

 

Management’s plans for the Company include securing a merger or acquisition, raising additional capital, and/or other strategies designed to optimize shareholder value. However, no assurance can be given that management will be successful in its efforts. The failure to achieve these plans will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The interim condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation and a reasonable understanding of the information presented. The Interim Condensed Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, previously filed with the SEC.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of September 30, 2010, results of operations for the three-  and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three-  and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

 

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the Company’s financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which is incorporated herein by reference.  Specific reference is made to that report for a description of the Company’s securities and the notes to financial statements.

Table of Contents

 

NOTE 2 – BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the exercise of common stock equivalents.

 

We have excluded 23,987,000 and 22,445,000 common stock equivalents (warrants) from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which, if included, would have an antidilutive effect.

 

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

 

In January of 2010, the FASB issued guidance which clarified that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings (loss) per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend.  This update is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis.  The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s interim condensed financial statements.

 

NOTE 4 - 2007 PRIVATE PLACEMENT UNITS (“UNIT”):

 

On September 7, 2007, the Company completed a private placement pursuant to which 13,334 units (the “Units”) were sold at a per Unit cash purchase price of $150, for a total subscribed amount of $2,000,100. Each Unit consists of: (1) one share of Series A 10% convertible preferred stock, par value $1.00, stated value $100 (the “Preferred Stock”); (2) 500 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 (the “Common Stock”); and (3) 500 warrants (the “Warrants”) exercisable into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

 

Each Warrant contained in a Unit has a term of five years during which such Warrant may be exercised, at $0.15 per share, for one share of the Common Stock. A total of 6,605 Units were purchased by related parties, including significant shareholders. The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment to reflect recapitalizations, stock dividends, mergers, stock splits, and similar events that would otherwise dilute the relative number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants may be exercised.

 

Each share of Preferred Stock contained in a Unit has a stated value of $100 and is convertible at any time into Common Stock at a rate of $0.10 per share. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment to reflect recapitalizations, stock dividends, mergers, stock splits, and similar events that would otherwise dilute the relative number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted.

 

There are 4,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock currently authorized for issuance. At the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company may pay to the holders of the Preferred Stock a semi-annual dividend of ten percent payable in cash or in kind (i.e., in additional shares of Preferred Stock) or any combination thereof. The holder of each share of Preferred Stock has one vote for each underlying share of Common Stock as if such Preferred Stock had been converted. At any time prior to conversion, the Company’s Board of Directors may redeem any portion or all of the Preferred Stock at a price of $100 per share of Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock will have a liquidation value of $100 per share. At any time after August 2, 2011, the holders of 66 2/3% or more of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding may request the liquidation of their Preferred Stock. In the event that, at the time of such requested liquidation, the Company’s

 

5



Table of Contents

 

cash funds (in excess of a $50,000 reserve fund) then available to effect such liquidation are inadequate for such purpose, the requested liquidation shall take place (on a pro-rata basis) only to the extent such excess cash funds are available for such purpose. In the event of a merger transaction approved by the holders of the Common Stock, the holders of the Preferred Stock will have the right to a cash payment of $100 per share in connection with such merger, or the Preferred Stock will be automatically converted at the then applicable conversion rate.

 

There was no beneficial conversion feature recorded since the Common Stock was selling for less than $0.10 per share (which approximated fair value) at the time of the closing.

 

Legal and professional fees of approximately $38,000 were incurred in connection with this private placement transaction resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,962,000.

 

NOTE 5 – DIVIDENDS:

 

On November 2, 2009, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a ten percent stock dividend on its outstanding Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock.  Shareholders of record as of November 16, 2009, received the stock dividend for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned on that date, payable December 1, 2009.   As of November 2, 2009, the Company had 15,536 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding; the total dividend paid consisted of 1,542 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a fair value of $154,200 and $1,160 cash in lieu of fractional shares.  Due to the absence of Retained Earnings, the $1,160 of cash and $1,542 par value of Preferred Stock dividend totaling $2,702 were charged against Additional Paid-in Capital.

 

NOTE 6 - SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY:

 

The Company’s 2008 Stock Awards Plan (the “2008 Plan”) was approved at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held on June 3, 2008.  The 2008 Plan became effective April 9, 2008, and will terminate on April 8, 2018.  Subject to certain adjustments, 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2008 Plan.  A maximum of 80,000 shares may be granted in any one year in any form to any one participant, of which a maximum of:  (i) 50,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of stock options; and (ii) 30,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of Common Stock or restricted stock.  The 2008 Plan will be administered by a committee of the Board of Directors.  Employees, including any employee who is also a director or an officer, consultants, and outside directors of the Company, are eligible to participate in the 2008 Plan.   As of September 30, 2010, no options had been issued under the 2008 Plan.

 

NOTE 7 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

 

The Company adopted FASB’s ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements” as it applies to its financial instruments, and FASB’s ASC 820 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (including an amendment which defines fair value), which outline a framework for measuring fair value and detail the required disclosures about fair value measurements, which permits companies to irrevocably choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. ASC 820 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparison between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.

 

Under ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability. The

 

6



Table of Contents

 

fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. ASC 820 requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

 

Except for those assets and liabilities which are required by authoritative accounting guidance to be recorded at fair value in the Company’s balance sheets, the Company has elected not to record any other assets or liabilities at fair value, as permitted by ASC 820. No events occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2010 which would require adjustment to the recognized balances of assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

 

The Company determines fair values for its investment assets as follows:

 

Cash equivalents at fair value — the Company’s cash equivalents, at fair value, consist of money market funds and treasury bills — marked to market. The Company’s money market funds and treasury bills are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy since they are valued using quoted market prices from an exchange.

 

The following table provides information on those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Item 2.                                   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

The information in this report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  This Act provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves provided they identify these statements as forward looking and provide meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the projected results.  All statements (other than statements of historical fact made in this report) are forward looking.  In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain.  The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations as a result of many factors.

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and notes thereto, included herewith.  This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future.  Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of management.  The Company assumes no obligations to update any of these forward-looking statements.

 

Results of Operations

 

During the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had no operations and its only income was from interest income on its money market fund classified as cash and cash equivalents. General and administrative expenses for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2010 were $73,832 and $15,096, respectively, compared to $77,840 and $14,776 for the comparable periods of 2009.  The Company had interest income of $626 and a net loss of $73,206 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with interest income of $2,510 and a net loss of $75,330 during the comparable period of 2009.  The Company had interest income of $212 and a net loss of $14,884 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with interest income of $236 and a net loss of $14,540 during the comparable period of 2009.  The interest income decrease was due to lower interest rates and a decrease in cash and cash equivalent balances.

 

Due to the closing of a private placement of the Company’s securities in the third quarter 2007, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents balance as of September 30, 2010 of $1,600,031.  The proceeds from the 2007 private placement will assist management with its plans to attempt to secure a suitable merger partner wishing to go public or attempt to acquire private companies to create investment value for the Company’s shareholders.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At September 30, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,600,000.  Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in a bank and at a brokerage firm.  Working capital at September 30, 2010 was approximately $1,596,000.  Management believes that the Company’s cash

Table of Contents

 

and cash equivalents are sufficient to meet its business development activities and declaration of dividends for at least the next 12 months and for the costs of acquiring an operating business.

 

Net cash of approximately $71,500 and $82,200 were used in operations during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

 

No cash flows were used or provided by investing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively

 

No cash proceeds were provided by or used in financing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively

 

Factors Which May Affect Future Results

 

Future earnings of the Company are dependent on interest rates earned on the Company’s invested balances and expenses incurred.  The Company expects to incur significant expenses in connection with its objective of identifying a merger partner or acquiring an operating business.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

See Note 3 “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the Notes to Financial Statements in Item 1 for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on results of operations and financial condition, which is incorporated herein.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that, as of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be included in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

 

In connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, there was no change identified in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
