PART I

ITEM 1.     BUSINESS

General

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 6, 2010. Our business concept is for Medora to present a daily discount for a niche market item (such as a spa, restaurant, or a tour outing), and if enough people sign up for the deal, the subscribers get the discount. The coupons are sent to the buyers by e-mail.  Conversely, if the quota is not reached, the deal is off, and no one is charged for what they subscribed to buy. If the deal does not work out, the company that Medora was “advertising” withdraws the discounted items, and the subscribers will be reimbursed. Our target focus is to provide significant discounts to our customers by allowing them to buy group coupons for local restaurants, hotels, spas, tourist attractions and bars in Jamaica. To date, we have begun operations and have reserved a domain name for the company at www.medoracorp.com and our webmasters have designed our website.

             

            We maintain our statutory registered agent’s office at Nevada Corporate Headquarter, 101 Convention Center Drive, Suite 700 Las Vegas, Nevada 89109 and our mailing address and business office is located at 7 Wareham Road, Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies. Our telephone number is 876-775-6074. Craig McKenzie, our president, supplies this office space on a rent-free basis.

 

Industry Information

Social Networking

 

            We believe social networking is one of the fastest growing industries on the planet. Websites such as Facebook and Twitter have come a long way in only a few years to be household names all over the world. We believe the power of social media has become so prevalent in the last few years; businesses use these websites to help sustain themselves, and in many situations, use these mediums as their primary source of generating revenue. We believe that Facebook and Twitter, as well as many other types of social media websites, have become an excellent way of getting a business’s message across.

 

            We believe the potential of social networking websites is enormous. It is a very popular trend on the internet for users to continually expand their network on these websites. The more people that are on one’s network of contacts, the easier it is for them to keep in touch with people, make new friends with similar interests, share media (such as photos and videos), share thoughts, and so on. We intend to rely on social networking as a means of conducting public relations.

 

Word of Mouth Marketing

 

            We believe a huge marketing opportunity on the internet is spreading word of mouth, a form of free advertising. We believe the internet has provided the biggest medium to spread word of mouth and social networking sites have been the place where everyone has come together. These days, companies have the capabilities of increased speed at which the message comes across. Bloggers and journalists can post their thoughts and reviews of products, and then people in all corners of the world can read it immediately. We believe the scale of which people can get their message across is also enormous. Twitter is a good example of this. If a company wants to release a statement to the media, they can use Twitter as a tool to do it. Afterwards, people can use twitter to respond, and everybody has access to all information as well as the abilities to connect with each other and start forums and conversations. Not only is word of mouth considered free advertising, but we believe it is one of the most powerful advertising tools out there. We intend to implement word of mouth advertising into our business model.

Loyalty Marketing

 

            Loyalty marketing is based on strategic management. It is the approach to marketing in which a company offers incentives to customers in order to generate and maintain business revenue. Incentives can be in the form of coupons, discounts, repeat sales incentives, and multiple item sales incentives (such as buy 2 get 1 free). The subjective assessment by the customer of whether or not to purchase a product or service is ultimately based on their sense of value the product has, which many times are due to the incentive being offered.

 

            The concept of loyalty marketing has been prevalent in all industries for almost a century, but in the 1980’s and 1990’s it started to explode in many forms and in and of itself became an industry. In 1981, Airline Corporations launched the first scale modern “loyalty marketing program” with their Frequent Flyer Program. This model allows customers who fly often to eventually receive gifts, discounts, free flights, or upgraded seats.  The entire concept was designed to retain customers and not have them switch to other airlines. Within a few years, almost every other airline created their own frequent flyer program. This repeat-business model soon spread to many other industries. The credit card industry uses points systems for frequent users of their cards to eventually redeem points for certain gifts. Nowadays, many retailers offer their own credit cards to customers in hopes of obtaining repeat business and offering deals on purchases.

 

            The business model of loyalty marketing is based on customer satisfaction. Through this method, employees must be trained to obtain specific goals. We believe the quality of the product or service leads to customer satisfaction, which leads to customer loyalty, repeat business, and ultimately profitability. In order to obtain profitability, the satisfaction level of the customer should be high enough to tell their family and friends (word of mouth) and attract new customers. Some companies,  have devised plans to not only offer incentives to buy its products through its website, but also additional incentives to refer their friends to the products. We intend to implement the concept of loyalty marketing into our business model.

 

The Team Buying Concept

 

            The team buying concept, known in Chinese as Tuangou was originated in the People’s Republic of China. Several people, sometimes friends, but also possibly strangers connect over the internet. They agree to approach a vendor of a specified product in order to haggle with the vendor as a group in order to get discounts. The group agrees to purchase the same item. All parties benefit, as the buyers pay less, while the business benefits by selling multiple items at once. We believe this concept works well in China because of the culture of bargaining and getting discounts on items. This process also has an additional benefit for the shopper, as it is more likely the vendor can be trusted if more than one buyer can vouch for the particular vendor, as the buyer may have purchased items from the vendor in the past, or has researched information about the vendor.  We intend to implement group buying into our business plan.

Similar Business Models from the United States

 

            One of the most popular companies in the U.S. that depends on word of mouth and viral marketing is Groupon.com. Groupon’s concept consists of gathering a certain number of people together to each buy a certain product or service. The product or service up for sale will probably have a significant discount from its original price, usually in the range of 50% off. Due to people’s social network, people can inform their friends that there is a deal going on, and from there the word spreads about the deal. If Groupon gathers enough people within a certain amount of time, everybody is able to buy the item at a discounted rate. If enough people do not sign up for the item, nobody gets anything, and nobody is charged for anything. The point at which enough people purchase the item and the deal becomes valid is called the “tipping point.”

 

            Groupon’s business model specifies daily deals, so if enough of the item is purchased within one day, everyone who ordered the item would be able to purchase it at the discounted rate. An example of how this works would be for an amusement park ticket. Groupon may post that a ticket normally selling for $60 to an amusement park in San Francisco is now selling for $30, and 500 people have to buy it. If the quota of $500 is filled in the specified time (one day), then everybody gets the tickets at the discounted price. If the quota is not filled, then the deal is void. On other websites, there may be a longer time limit or no time limit for the item at all, but the deal will only occur if or when the item reaches the specified quota. The Groupon model features daily deals for certain cities and areas within the United States. One of its primary intentions is to help the local economy and help local businesses gain a wider customer base.

 

            Other competitors to Groupon include LivingSocial, BuyWithMe, MyCityDeal, GroupSwoop, and TownHog. They all feature the same “Daily Deal” business model and have few distinctions. They all claim to be the place with the best deal in town. Each city only has a few deals per day, so it is not as if the customer can pick and choose anything that he or she wants. One distinction that LivingSocial has is the “free link” strategy. In this model, one buyer can send a link to his or her friends to a certain item. If three or more people purchase the item using that link, then that buyer will get the deal for free. 

 

            Group buying is a relatively new concept in the U.S., as it started with Groupon and other websites in only late 2008. Therefore, the long term results of this concept are yet to be seen, and currently nobody knows if this concept can sustain itself in the U.S. or Jamaica. However, considering Groupon’s and other group buying site’s initial success and venture capital backing, we believe this concept will be successful and is a highly marketable concept for Medora to inject into Jamaica.

ITEM 6.     SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

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


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

            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. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.  See “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Information.”

            We are a development stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.

 

            Our auditors have raised substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as an on-going business for the next 12 months. We have not generated any revenue, have not completed the development of our websites, and have only recently located businesses willing to offer significant discounts of their products or services to our registered members. 

 

            To meet our need for cash we raised $40,582 in a private placement offering. We cannot guarantee that since we have begun operations that we will stay in business after twelve months. If we are unable to secure enough businesses of products or services at suitably low pricing or enough registered members willing to buy the products at the price we have negotiated with our businesses, we may quickly use up the proceeds from the offering and will need to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, or a private placement of securities in order for us to maintain our operations. Our sole officer and director is unwilling to loan or advance any additional capital to the Company, except for the costs associated with legal costs, accounting costs, and with the preparation and filing of reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than from our private offering. If we need additional cash and cannot raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. If we need more money we will have to revert to obtaining additional funds as described above. Other than as described above, we have no other financing plans.

  

Plan of Operation

 

Our business concept is for Medora to present a daily discount for a niche market item (such as a spa, restaurant, or a tour outing), and if enough people sign up for the deal, the subscribers get the discount. The coupons are sent to the buyers by e-mail.  Conversely, if the quota is not reached, the deal is off, and no one is charged for what they subscribed to buy. If the deal does not work out, the company that Medora was “advertising” withdraws the discounted items, and the subscribers will be reimbursed.

A material challenge to our business operations has been getting enough registered members to purchase discounted products from businesses that participate in our program, and in order to achieve this goal we have created incentives for our registered members to inform others of the discounts that businesses are offering on our websites. We will encourage our registered members to share news about deals through email, Facebook, and Twitter, and other social media websites.  Encouraging new membership, we will guarantee that if one of our registered members sends our Company link to a friend, and the friend buys a Medora Coupon (“Coupon”) within 72 hours, the individual who sent the link will get $10 worth of Medora credits in their account. In addition, if a user sends a referral to a friend, who then subscribes within 72 hours, the person who sent the referral will get $10 worth of Medora credits in their account when their friend buys their first deal with Medora.  We are also offering free gifts to be given away for people who register as members to our sites.  If we are unable to locate businesses or fail to generate enough traffic to our website it may have a material impact on our revenues or income or may result in our liquidity decreasing.

 

To better market our brand and expand our subscriber base, we felt it was necessary to re-brand our group buying site to something more marketable and for this reason we registered a new domain in the name of www.grabbittoday.com.  We feel that this new domain better describes to both our potential subscribers and businesses that we will offer new deals everyday and it will be important to act quickly and get today’s deal now.  We will continue to use www.medoracorp.com, however, this website will change in the near future to reflect a more corporate website than a group buying site, but until this occurs, www.medoracorp.com will continue to be part of the Company’s group buying websites.

 

To better expand our subscriber base we have begun targeting people in Jamaica, European tourists, and USA tourists. Target these subscribers will be done as follows:

 

1)      Targeting users in Jamaica

a)      Build a database or purchase lists

b)      Make the website data rich

c)      Send out newsletters to attract sign ups

d)     Advertise by placing newspaper ads and do radio spots

e)      Offer subscribers a prize like an iPhone, or TV if they subscribe

 

2)      Targeting tourists from European countries visiting Jamaica

a)      Identify the top 5 countries in Europe that visit Jamaica the most

b)      Then target tour operators in those areas online and contact them to see if their visitors could benefit from our service of daily deals.

c)      Then provide these users with newsletters

d)     We can then also market through link building by advertising on the tour operator’s websites.

 

3)      Targeting tourists from the USA visiting Jamaica

e)      Identify the top 10 US states that visit Jamaica the most

f)       Then target tour operators and travel agents in those areas online and contact them to see if their visitors could benefit from our service of daily deals.

g)      Then provide these users with newsletters

h)      We can then also market through link building by advertising on the tour operator’s websites.

 

We plan to implement our business operations by finding local restaurants, spas, or other businesses that are willing to provide large discounts if their name is spread to a number of new registered members. We have had good success in finding businesses that are willing to provide large discounts to their products and services, but we have had little success in obtaining registered members.  Our Company advertises the business by offering coupons online, and then taking a portion of the money spent on each coupon.  At this time, our President has approached several local businesses in both Kingston  and Ocho Rios, Jamaica, of which there are twenty businesses that have committed to participate in the group buying program prepared by the Company.  However, no formal agreements have been signed with any business at this moment as we lack the base of registered members. We believe that if the local economy in Jamaica is struggling, businesses we target to offer discounts for our program may be more inclined to participate in order to generate more business. However, if the local economy in Jamaica deteriorates extensively there may be few businesses in Jamaica who have the goods and services to participate in our program. In addition, some participating businesses in Jamaica may only operate their businesses during certain seasons, which may impede our ability to implement our business operations.

 

To increase commitments of businesses wanting to offer the goods or services to our subscribers, we had employed 2 full-time commissioned sales agents to assist with this initiative in growing our daily deals to our subscribers.  We have since reduced this to 1 full-time commissioned sales agent.  Commissions are only paid once a deal goes live on our sites.

 

To better manage our websites, operate our social media links and websites, to up load our deals on a daily basis and to assist with our payment processing we have reached an informal arrangement with our web developers to manage these aspects of our business on a full time basis.  There is no formal agreement in place for these services and will be billed to the Company on a monthly basis once we go live with deals on our sites.

 

Our business concept seeks to target the service and tourism sector. We believe that our concept is attractive in both a growing and shrinking economy because it allows our registered members access to daily discounts by participating businesses that have the opportunity to generate more income through increased sales.  Our concept allows businesses to generate more income and consumers to save more money. 

 

In both a growing and shrinking economy we anticipate that businesses will use our program as a marketing tool and to generate income from repeat customers.  Additionally, registered members will likely prefer to receive a discount whether the economic environment is positive or negative.

 

However, the local Jamaican economy may be volatile because it is dependent on tourism. Any signs of decline in tourist visits could directly cause local businesses to slow down business operations or go bankrupt which would directly affect the number of businesses able to participate in offering large discounts of their goods and services in exchange for bulk sales.   With fewer visitors to the local Jamaican economy there will likely be fewer registered members to our websites, and if this is the case it will directly affect the businesses being able to meet their thresholds set for group buyers.  A slowdown in the local economy may impact our short term liquidity.

 

11

 


 

 

To help prevent liquidity concerns, we will have to also target businesses that will have offerings of goods and services that will be attractive to the local community and not dependent on tourists.  Having businesses that have offerings that are attractive enough to generate local people to be registered members to our website will increase our exposure and will address our long-term liquidity concerns.  However, this has been a challenge as the larger part of the population in Jamaica do not use credit cards and thus our business model is changing to become more dependent on visitors.

 

            We anticipate that we will need to meet our ongoing cash requirements through the generation of revenue or equity and/or debt financing.  We estimate that our expenditures over the next 12 months as of July 31, 2011, will be approximately $210,000 as described in the table below.  These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our future business activities and our ability to raise capital from shareholders or other sources.

            **Salaries will be paid to existing commission sales agents and future employees who will assist the Company with its sales and marketing efforts.  Consulting fees will be paid to any outside consultant that the Company needs to bring in for any form of special expertise not possessed by the sole officer and director of the Company.

            ***Management costs will be any costs associated to paying any future manager who will assist with the overseeing of the running of the business and who will be responsible for supervising the sales and marketing efforts.

 

            We intend to meet our cash requirements for the short term by generating revenue and, if possible, through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of private placements.  We currently do not have any arrangements or commitments in place to complete any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any such financings on terms that will be acceptable to us.

 

            If we are not able to raise the full $210,000 to implement our business plan as anticipated, we will scale our business development in line with available capital.  Our primary priority will be to retain our reporting status with the SEC which means that we will first ensure that we have sufficient capital to cover our legal and accounting expenses.  Once these costs are accounted for, in accordance with how much financing we are able to secure, we will focus on market awareness, testing and servicing costs as well as marketing and advertising to social media marketing websites.  We will likely not expend funds on the remainder of our planned activities unless we have the required capital. 

 

            If we are able to raise the required funds to fully implement our business plan, we plan to implement the below business actions in the order provided below. If we are not able to raise all required funds, we will prioritize our corporate activities as chronologically laid out below because the activity which needs to be undertaken in the initial months is prerequisite for future operations. We anticipate that the implementation of our business will occur as follows:

 

July 2011 to December 2011

  • Complete the design and upload our Corporate website.
  • Continue to market the Company’s website to potential businesses wanting to offer discounts for their products and services.
  • Market products to hotels and resorts, pubs, restaurants, spas throughout the designated cities.
  • Complete certain asset purchases such as dedicated servers, and computer equipment.
  • Continue to market the Company on Social Media websites as Facebook and Twitter.
  • Market our websites to tour operators and travel agents in Europe and the USA.
  • Purchase lists and market newsletters to potential subscribers in Jamaica.
  • Hire local personnel to manage the technical aspects of the website and the daily offerings.
  • Hire in house accounting staff to manage the fulfillments of the transactions.
  • Purchase additional assets such as vehicles for sales calls.

 

January 2012 to July 2012

  • If initial launch is successful in a few cities in Jamaica, expand the concept to other Caribbean countries.
  • Hire additional marketing and sales staff.
  • Attend trade shows.
  • Market products to hotels and resorts, pubs, restaurants, spas throughout the designated cities.
  • Launch a new brand that is focused on the group buying concept but will focus on offering hotel accommodations only.

 

             

 

13

 


 

 

            Our concept is to utilize collective buying to get a daily deal on local goods and services. We plan to bring buyers and sellers together in a collaborative way that offers the consumer competitive prices and businesses a large number of new customers. By promising businesses a minimum number of customers, we can offer attractive deals with competitive prices. We plan to save consumers money and in return to generate more revenue for the businesses we feature.     

 

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

 

            There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are a start-up (development stage) company and have not generated any revenues. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.

 

            To become profitable and competitive, we have to locate and negotiate agreements with established businesses to offer their products/services for sale to us at pricing that will enable us to establish and sell the products/services to our clientele.

             

            We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

Results of Operations

 

From Inception on May 6, 2010 to July 31, 2011

 

            During the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011 we incorporated the company, hired the auditor, and hired the attorney for the preparation of our registration statement. We have prepared an internal business plan. We have reserved the domain name www.medoracorp.com and www.grabbittoday.com and they have been designed and uploaded.  Our net loss since inception is $49,002 as a result of incurring expenses of $21,597 for consulting fees, $16,103 for accounting fees, $8,019 for legal fees, $2,425 for transfer agent fees and $3,357 for other general and administrative expenses.

 

            At inception, we sold 35,000,000 shares of common stock to our former sole officer and director, Dr. Jehovan Owayne Fairclough for approximately $7,000. On June 10, 2010, Dr. Fairclough appointed Craig McKenzie as his replacement by way of board resolution as the president, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, treasurer, secretary and sole member of the board of directors. On June 10, 2010, Dr. Jehovan Fairclough resigned as the president, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, treasurer, secretary and sole member of the board of directors and sold to Craig McKenzie his 35,000,000 shares of common stock for $7,000 in a private transaction.

 

These shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, the foregoing investors had the necessary investment intent as

14

 


 

 

required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.

 

            During the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011, we sold 27,054,600 shares of our common stock at $0.0015 per share for a total of $40,582 to forty-two (42) investors.

 

We issued these shares in reliance on the safe harbor provided by Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  These investors who received the securities represented and warranted that they are not “U.S. Persons” as defined in Regulation S. In the alternative, the issuance of these shares was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. We made this determination based on the representations of the  Shareholders which included, in pertinent part, that such shareholders were either (a) “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, or (b) not a “U.S. person” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S under the Act, and that such shareholders were acquiring our common stock, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that the Shareholders understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.

 

Lack of Revenues

 

            We have limited operational history. From our inception on May 6, 2010 to July 31, 2011, we did not generate any revenues. We anticipate that we will incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future and our ability to generate any revenues in the next 12 months continues to be uncertain.

 

Expenses

 

            For the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011, our expenses were as follows:

 

Type of Expense

($)

General and administrative

3,357

Professional fees

48,144

 

            During the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011 our total expenses were $49,002

 

Net Loss

 

            For the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011, we incurred a net loss of $49,002.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

            As of the date of this report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.

15

 


 

 

 

            As of July 31, 2011, our total assets were $45 comprised entirely of cash and our total liabilities were $8,071 comprised of a related party payable and accounts payable.

 

            On August 11, 2011, we borrowed $14,000 from our President, Craig McKenzie to pay for our reporting obligations including this report. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due upon demand.

 

            We anticipate that we will meet our ongoing cash requirements through the generation of revenue and equity or debt financing.  We estimate that our expenditures over the next 12 months as of July 31, 2011, will be approximately $210,000. These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our future business activities and our ability to raise capital from shareholders or other sources.

 

            Our specific goal is to profitably sell discounted products and services to our registered members, or those people who sign up with us on our websites will be deemed a registered member, by allowing the public to buy group coupons for local restaurants, hotels, spas, tourist attractions and bars in Jamaica.  

 

            We intend to meet our cash requirements for the short term by generating revenue and through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of private placements.  We currently do not have any arrangements or commitments in place to complete any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any such financings on terms that will be acceptable to us.

 

            If we are not able to raise the full $210,000 to fully implement our business plan as anticipated, we will scale our business development in line with available capital.  Our primary priority will be to retain our reporting status with the SEC which means that we will first ensure that we have sufficient capital to cover our legal and accounting expenses.  Once these costs are accounted for, in accordance with how much financing we are able to secure, we will focus on market awareness, testing and servicing costs as well as marketing and advertising to social media marketing websites.  We will likely not expend funds on the remainder of our planned activities unless we have the required capital.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

Medora Corp. (A Development Stage Company)

Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Medora Corp. (A Development Stage Company) as of July 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended July 31, 2011, the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2010, and the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of Medora Corp. as of July 31, 2011 and 2010,, and the results of its operations and its cash for the year ended July 31, 2011, the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2010, and the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, as of July 31, 2011, the Company has an accumulated deficit, limited liquidity and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs for the next twelve month period, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MEDORA CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
July 31, 2011

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business. Medora Corp. (referred to as the “Company” or “Medora”) was incorporated in Nevada on May 6, 2010, for the purpose of engaging in ecommerce through our planned website, which will be a group coupon buying website.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share. The 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 common share is computed by dividing the net loss, adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For all periods presented, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Medora considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Income Taxes Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company computes a deferred tax asset for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

Subsequent Events. Medora has evaluated all transactions from July 31, 2011 through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Medora does not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 2. - GOING CONCERN

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies Medora will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. As of July 31, 2011, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $49,002, limited liquidity and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs for the next twelve month period.

MEDORA CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
July 31, 2011

NOTE 2. - GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)

The Company’s sole officer and director is unwilling to loan or advance any additional capital to the Company, except for the costs associated with the preparation and filing of reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of Medora as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of Medora to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Medora be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3. - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On May 6, 2010, Medora issued 35,000,000 common shares to its president at $0.0002 per share for $7,025 in cash.

During July 2010, Medora issued an additional 14,045,933  shares for a total of $21,069 in cash.   

During July 2011, Medora issued an additional 13,008,667 shares for a total of $12,881 in cash, net of $6,631 of direct offering costs.   

NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES

Medora uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. Since inception, Medora incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is $49,002 at July 31, 2011, and will begin to expire in the year 2030.

At July 31, 2011, deferred tax assets consisted of the following:

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

There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures from the inception of our company through the date of this Form 10-K. Our financial statements for the period from May 6, 2010 (inception) to July 31, 2011, included in this report have been audited by GBH CPAs, PC, as set forth in this annual report.

ITEM 9A.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation (the "Evaluation"), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures ("Disclosure Controls") as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our Disclosure Controls were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.

The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our limited accounting staff in the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. More specifically, the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is due to the fact that:

 

-

The Company lacks proper segregation of duties. We believe that the lack of proper segregation of duties is due to our limited resources.

 

-

The Company does not have a comprehensive and formalized accounting and procedures manual.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.

26

 


 

 

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). Item 9A of this annual report on Form 10-K, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

27

 


 

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2011. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, as of July 31, 2011, the Company's internal control over financial reporting were ineffective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our 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.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011 that have affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards   

 

We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.

Indemnification

Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

 

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our auditor is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

 

-approved by our audit committee; or

 

-entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular  service,  the  audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.

We do not have an audit committee.  Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors.

 

The pre-approval process has just been implemented in response to the new rules. Therefore, our board of directors does not have records of what percentage of the above fees were pre- approved.  However, all of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the entire board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Conclusion

1.   STATEMENT OF POLICY

     The Company has adopted eight Corporate Values (Focus, Respect, Excellence, Accountability, Teamwork, Integrity, Very Open Communications and Enjoying Our Work) to provide a framework for all employees in conducting ourselves in our jobs. These policies are not intended to substitute for those Values, but will serve as guidelines in helping you to conduct the Company's business in accordance with our Values. Compliance requires meeting the spirit, as well as the literal meaning, of the law, the policies and the Values. It is expected that you will use common sense, good judgment, high ethical standards and integrity in all your business dealings.

     If you encounter a situation you are not able to resolve by reference to these policies, ask for help. Contact Craig McKenzie, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as responsible for overseeing compliance with these policies.

 


 
 

 

     Violations of the law or the Company's policies will subject employees to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. In addition, individuals involved may subject themselves and the Company to severe penalties including fines and possible imprisonment. Compliance with the law and high ethical standards in the conduct of Company business should be a top priority for each employee, officer and director.

 

2.    IMPLEMENTATION AND ENFORCEMENT.

     Craig McKenzie, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, has been appointed as Compliance Officer of the Company, responsible for overseeing compliance with, and enforcement of, all Company policies.

     Employees are expected to be familiar with these policies as they apply to their duties. They should consult with their managers if they need assistance in understanding or interpreting these policies. Each employee is required to follow these policies and to comply with their terms. A refusal by any employee to agree to be bound by these policies shall be grounds for discipline up to and including dismissal.

     Any employee who, in good faith, has reason to believe a Company operation or activity is in violation of the law or of these policies must call the matter to the attention of Craig McKenzie, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. All reports will be reviewed and investigated and as necessary under the circumstances, and the reporting employee should provide sufficient information to enable a complete investigation to be undertaken.

     Any employee who makes an allegation in good faith reasonably believing that a person has violated these policies or the law, will be protected against retaliation.

3.  RELATIONS WITH COMPETITORS AND OTHER THIRD PARTIES.

     The Company's policy is to comply fully with competition and antitrust laws throughout the world. These laws generally prohibit companies from using illegal means to maintain, obtain or attempt to obtain a monopoly in a market. They also prohibit companies from engaging in unfair trade practices. "Unfair trade practices" include fixing prices, dividing markets, agreeing with competitors not to compete, or agreeing to boycott certain customers. It is advised that you consult with the Craig McKenzie before attending a meeting with a party who may be viewed as a competitor.

4.  INSIDER TRADING, SECURITIES COMPLIANCE AND PUBLIC STATEMENTS.

     Securities laws prohibit anyone who is in possession of material, non-public information ("Insider Information") about a company from purchasing or selling stock of that company, or communicating the information to others. Information is considered "material" if a reasonable investor would consider it to be important in making a decision to buy or sell that stock. Some examples include financial results and projections, new products, acquisitions, major new contracts or alliances prior to the time that they are publicly announced. Employees who become aware of such Inside Information about the Company must refrain from trading in the shares of the Company until the Inside Information is publicly announced.

2

 


 

 

     Employees must also refrain from disclosing that information to persons who do not have a Company need to know, whether they are inside the Company or outside, such as spouses, relatives or friends.

     The Company makes regular formal disclosures of its financial performance and results of operations to the investment community. We also regularly issue press releases. Other than those public statements, which go through official Company channels, employees are prohibited from communicating outside the Company about the Company's business, financial performance or future prospects. Such communications include questions from securities analysts, reporters or other news media, but also include seemingly innocent discussions with family, friends, neighbors or acquaintances.

5.  FINANCIAL REPORTING.

     The Company is required to maintain a variety of records for purposes of reporting to the government. The Company requires all employees to maintain full compliance with applicable laws and regulations requiring that its books of account and records be accurately maintained. Specifics of these requirements are available from Craig McKenzie.

6.  HUMAN RESOURCES.

     The Company is committed to providing a work environment that is free from unlawful harassment and discrimination, and respects the dignity of its employees. The Company has policies covering various aspects of its relationship with its employees, as well as employees’ relationships with each other. For more detailed information, you should consult Craig McKenzie. Each employee is expected to be familiar with these policies and to abide by them.

7.  ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY.

     The Company is committed to protecting the health and safety of our employees, as well as the environment in general. The Company expects employees to obey all laws and regulations designed to protect the environment, and the health and safety of our employees, and to obtain and fully observe all permits necessary to do business.

     At the very least, all employees should be familiar with and comply with safety regulations applicable to their work areas. The Company will make, to the extent possible, reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of our employees. Employees who require an accommodation should contact Craig McKenzie. The Company will then engage in an interactive process to determine what reasonable accommodations may exist.

8.  CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

     Each employee is expected to avoid any activity, investment or association that interferes with the independent exercise of his or her judgment in the Company's best interests ("Conflicts of Interest"). Conflicts of Interest can arise in many situations. They occur most often in cases where the employee or the employee's family obtains some personal benefit at the expense of the Company's best interests.

3

 


 

 

     No employee, or any member of employee's immediate family, shall accept money, gifts of other than nominal value, unusual entertainment, loans, or any other preferential treatment from any customer or supplier of the Company where any obligation may be incurred or implied on the giver or the receiver or where the intent is to prejudice the recipient in favor of the provider. Likewise, no employee shall give money, gifts of other than nominal value, unusual entertainment or preferential treatment to any customer or supplier of the Company, or any employee or family members thereof, where any obligation might be incurred or implied, or where the intent is to prejudice the recipient in favor of the Company. No such persons shall solicit or accept kickbacks, whether in the form of money, goods, services or otherwise, as a means of influencing or rewarding any decision or action taken by a foreign or domestic vendor, customer, business partner, government employee or other person whose position may affect the Company's business.

     No employee shall use Company property, services, equipment or business for personal gain or benefit.

     Employees may not: (1) act on behalf of, or own a substantial interest in, any company or firm that does business, or competes, with the Company; (2) conduct business on behalf of the Company with any company or firm in which the employee or a family member has a substantial interest or affiliation. Exceptions require advance written approval from the Legal Department.

     Employees should not create the appearance that they are personally benefitting in any outside endeavor as a result of their employment by the Company, or that the Company is benefitting by reason of their outside interests. Any employee who is not sure whether a proposed action would present a conflict of interest or appear unethical should consult with Craig McKenzie .

9.  INTERNATIONAL TRADE.

     The Company must comply with a variety of laws around the world regarding its activities. In some cases, the law prohibits the disclosure of information, whether the disclosure occurs within the U.S. or elsewhere, and whether or not the disclosure is in writing.

     Payments or gifts to non-U.S. government officials are prohibited by law and by Company policy. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act precludes payments to non-U.S. government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business, even if the payment is customary in that country. This law applies anywhere in the world to U.S. citizens, nationals, residents, businesses or employees of U.S. businesses. Because MEDORA CORP is a U.S. company, this law applies to the Company and all of its subsidiaries. Any questions on this policy should be directed to Craig McKenzie.

10.  GOVERNMENT RELATIONS.

     The Company is prohibited by law from making any contributions or expenditures in connection with any U.S. national election. This includes virtually any activity that furnishes something of value to an election campaign for a federal office. Use of the Company's name in supporting any political position or ballot measure, or in seeking the assistance of any elected representative, requires the specific approval of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Political contributions or expenditures are not to be made out of Company funds in any foreign country, even if permitted by local law, without the consent of the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

4

 


 

 

     U.S. law also prohibits giving, offering, or promising anything of value to any public official in the U.S. or any foreign country to influence any official act, or to cause an official to commit or omit any act in violation of his or her lawful duty. Company employees are expected to comply with these laws.

11.  VENDORS, CONTRACTORS, CONSULTANTS AND TEMPORARY WORKERS.

     Vendors, contractors, consultants or temporary workers who are acting on the Company's behalf, or on Company property, are expected to follow the law, Company policies and honor Company Values. Violations will subject the person or firm to sanctions up to and including loss of the contract, contracting or consulting agreement, or discharge from temporary assignment.

12.  CONCLUSION.

     This Code of Ethics is not intended to cover every possible situation in which you may find yourself. It is meant to give you the boundaries within which the Company expects you to conduct yourself while representing MEDORA CORP. You may find yourself in a situation where there is no clear guidance given by this Code of Ethics. If that occurs, return to the foundations stated earlier: common sense, good judgment, high ethical standards and integrity. And refer to the Company's Values. In addition, there are many resources upon which you may rely: your management chain, Human Resources, Legal or other MEDORA CORP. departments, and the CEO. Together we can continue to make MEDORA CORP. a company that sets a standard for managing real estate companies.

Other Responsibilities

The Committee shall have such other responsibilities, consistent with the Committee's purpose, as any Senior Officer may assign to it from time to time.

Disclosure Control Considerations

The Committee shall base the review and revision of the Disclosure Controls and Procedures on the following factors:

  • Control Environment: The directives of the Board and Audit Committee; the integrity and ethical values of the Corporation's officers and employees, including the "tone at the top"; the Corporation's Code of Conduct; and the philosophy and operating style of management, including how employees are organized and how authority is delegated.
  • Risk Assessment: The identification and analysis of relevant risks to achieving the goal of accurate and timely disclosure, forming a basis for determining how the risks should be managed.
  • Control Activities: The procedures to ensure that necessary actions are taken to address and handle risks to achievement of objectives.
  • Information and Communication: The accumulation, delivery and communication of financial information throughout (i.e., up, down and across) the organization.
  • Monitoring: The assessment of the quality of the financial reporting systems over time through ongoing monitoring and separate evaluations, including through regular management supervision and reporting of deficiencies upstream.

Organization

The members of the Committee will be comprised of the Corporation’s officers and directors.

The Committee may designate two or more individuals, at least one of whom shall be knowledgeable about financial reporting and another about law, who can, acting together, review Disclosure Statements when time does not permit full Committee review.

The Senior Officers at their option may, at any time and from time to time, assume any or all of the responsibilities of the Disclosure Committee identified in this Charter, including, for example, approving Disclosure Statements when time does not permit the full Committee (or the designated individuals) to meet or act.

Chair

The Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation shall act as the Chair of the Committee (unless and until another member of the Committee shall be so appointed by any Senior Officer).

Meetings and Procedures

The Committee shall meet or act as frequently and as formally or informally as circumstances dictate to (i) ensure the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the Disclosure Statements and (ii) evaluate the Disclosure Controls and Procedures and determine whether any changes to the Disclosure Controls and Procedures are necessary or advisable in connection with the preparation of the Reports or other Disclosure Statements, taking into account developments since the most recent evaluation, including material changes in the Corporation's organization and business lines and any material change in economic or industry conditions.

The Committee shall adopt, whether formally or informally, such procedures as it deems necessary to facilitate the fulfillment of its responsibilities.

Full Access

The Committee shall have full access to all of Corporation's books, records, assets, facilities and personnel, including the internal auditors, in connection with fulfilling its responsibilities.

Charter Review

The Committee shall review and assess this Charter annually, and recommend any proposed changes to the Senior Officers for approval.

Interpretation

Any questions of interpretation regarding this Charter, or the Committee's responsibilities or procedures, shall be determined initially by the Chair and, to the extent necessary, ultimately by the Senior Officers.
