Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
For the Five Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and the
Period of September 30, 2011 (Inception) to March 31, 2013
NOTE 1 – CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at March 31, 2013, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s October 31, 2012 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
On January 9, 2013, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to Noho, Inc. The Company changed its business plan and is a distributor of a product named “NOHO” – The Hangover Defense™.
In March 2013, the Company changed its year end from October 31 to December 31.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Immediately after the forward split, the number of shares issued and outstanding increased to 22,861,676. The number of authorized shares increased from 50,000,000 to 760,000,000 common shares.
On January 4, 2013, the Company entered into a Distributor Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Dolce Bevuto, Inc., a Nevada corporation (formerly Dolce Bevuto, LLC, a California limited liability company). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company obtained the non-exclusive right to distribute a product named “NOHO®” – The Hangover Defense®. The term of the Agreement is for one year and allows the Company to use the NOHO® trademarks solely in connection advertising, distribution, marketing, and sale of the product throughout certain territories.
12 |
On January 9, 2013, the Company changed its name from RealEstate Pathways, Inc. to NOHO, Inc. The amendment occurred as a result of our stockholders approving the amendment at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and a subsequent vote by the Board of Directors.
On January 31, 2013, the trading symbol for the Company’s common stock, which is quoted on the OTC:QB, was changed from REPW to HANG. Subsequently, on February 21, 2013, the trading symbol for the Company’s common stock was changed from HANG to DRNK.
On March 18, 2013, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among, Dolce Sub Co, a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Company, (“Sub Co”) and Dolce Bevuto, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“DB”); DB and Sub Co being the constituent entities in the Merger. The Company issued 12,713,763 shares of its Rule 144 restricted common stock in exchange for 100% of DB’s issued and outstanding stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, Sub co merged with DB and Sub Co ceased to exist; DB become a wholly owned-subsidiary of the Company. The Merger, which closed on April 1, 2013, provided the Company with the ownership of 100% of DB.
The Business of the Company
Pursuant to the Distributor Agreement executed on January 4, 2013 with DB, the Company has the non-exclusive right to distribute “NOHO®” – The Hangover Defense® for one year. The Company intends to begin generating revenues by marketing and selling the product in certain territories. However, the Company can make no guarantees of such.
Upon Closing of the Merger, we changed our business focus to distributing the NOHO product. NOHO develops, markets, sells and distributes a functional lifestyle beverage category product named “NOHO®” – The Hangover Defense®. Additionally, we recently launched NoHo® Gold an 8.4 oz premium lifestyle beverage.
Our flagship product “NOHO®” – The Hangover Defense® (“NOHO”) is a dietary supplement, taken before or during the consumption of alcohol that may help to prevent the symptoms associated with a hangover. NOHO was formulated by a Doctor of Pharmacy and comes in a 2 ounce “shot” that can be consumed on a stand-alone basis or as a mixer available in an 8.4 ounce that can be consumed by itself or mixed with an alcoholic drink. It is recommended that the 2 ounce shot be taken as the first and last shot of the night, while the mixer can be consumed alone or mixed with subsequent drinks. NOHO has a refreshing flavor, containing no caffeine or stimulants. Although the method by which NOHO works has not been confirmed through clinical testing, field tests conducted throughout the country have demonstrated NOHO’s effectiveness. NOHO is intended to replenish common electrolytes and trace elements lost by alcohol consumption.
NoHo Hangover Defense is a functional lifestyle beverage. “Functional lifestyle” beverages are beverages that have a specific function. Functions include relaxation, health, weight management, digestion aid, alertness, detoxification, and joint health. The functional lifestyle beverage category includes relaxation drinks, and ready-to-drink (RTD) teas and coffees. Functional beverages play an important role in our everyday lives. They help keep us hydrated, prevent and help address health conditions, or simply contribute to our overall nutritional well-being. These beverages include functional ingredients such as nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, nutraceuticals, etc.), zero-calories sweeteners and stabilizers. The functional beverage market has steadily increased over the past decade and is predicted to continue to increase in growth.
The NoHo Gold Premium Lifestyle Beverage is currently being developed and marketed as a refreshingly healthy beverage that can be enjoyed day and night. NoHo Gold is currently offered to and sold in some of the most exclusive “On Premise” bar and club venues in the United States including the Fontainebleau Hotel, LIV nightclub, Story Nightclub, Day Light, Light, Fluxx, Heist, The Mid, Greenhouse, The Opium Group properties, and many others. NoHo Gold is a healthy mixer alternative to be consumed in the vast social day and night lives of America and around the world.
We believe that our products will change the way we think about alcoholic beverage consumption. Our NoHo Gold Premium Lifestyle Beverage fills a unique niche in the market and, coupled with our relationships with major bar and club venues in the United States, has the potential to revolutionize the industry. We are in the early stages of expanding our customer base and maximizing the breadth of our distribution. We believe there is a significant opportunity to further enhance the value we deliver to clients and users. Key elements of our strategy are based on developing a high quality product and attaining high volume distribution through an aggressive marketing campaign. By raising funds through this private offering, we plan to enhance the reach of our current offerings, branch out into the public sector, and form strategic alliances to grow our Company and enhance our market share.
To date, NOHO is in over 20,000 retail outlets in America and available in 6 countries.

Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
The Company is currently contemplating an offering of its equity or debt securities to finance continuing operations. There are no agreements or arrangements currently in place or under negotiation to obtain such financing, and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful and without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In the five months ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, we did not generate any revenues.
Operating expenses during the five months ended March 31, 2013 were $44,562. $41,865 of which was professional fees associated with legal and accounting expenses and the remaining $2,697 was related to general and administrative costs. In comparison, operating expenses for the five months ended March 31, 2012 were $7,606, of which $7,513 was in professional fees and the remaining $93 was related to general and administrative costs. The increase in professional fees is due to increased legal work.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2013, we had $12,332 in cash and did not have any other cash equivalents. The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for all financial statement periods presented in this Quarterly Report. To date, we have financed our operations through the issuance of stock, unsecured lines of credit and limited revenues.

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through the issuance of stock and by borrowings. In the future, we anticipate we will be able to provide the necessary liquidity needed from the revenues generated from operations but there is no assurance that this will happen.
Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock, and lines of credit. As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations. Additionally we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through additional common stock offerings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital.
We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our limited operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, develop a customer base, develop our marketing strategy, continually develop and upgrade our website, provide, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $41,381 for the five months ended March 31, 2013, as compared to $7,343 used in operating activities from for the five months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in professional fees, as a result of increased legal work.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the five months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $0 used in investing activities for the same period in 2012.
15 |
Financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the five months ended March 31, 2013 was $52,986, as compared to $3,145 for the same period of 2012. The increase of net cash provided by financing activities was mainly attributable to capital provided through previously executed line of credit and related party loans.
On February 8, 2013, the Company executed a revolving line of credit with Dolce Bevuto, Inc., an entity that is controlled by an officer of the Company. The Company agreed to loan to the related party up to $120,000. The loan is unsecured, due upon demand and bears interest at 0%. During May 2013, the limit was increased to $1,000,000. During the five months ended March 31, 2013, the Company loaned a total of $220,950 and received repayments totaling $3,350 to a related party. The related party is the entity that the Company merged with in April 2013.
During the five months ended March 31, 2013 the Company received loans from related parties totaling $8,726 to fund operations and repaid $40. These loans are non-interest bearing, due on demand and as such are included in current liabilities. During the five months ended March 31, 2013, the related parties agreed to forgive a total of $7,561 and were recorded to additional paid in capital. As of March 31, 2013, the balance in related party loans was $4,500. Imputed interest has been considered, but was determined to be immaterial to the financial statements as a whole.
We believe that cash flow from operations will not meet our present and near-term cash needs and thus we will require additional cash resources, including the sale of equity or debt securities, to meet our planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the next 12 months. We will require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, finalization and launch of our website, implementation of our strategy to expand our sales and marketing initiatives, increase brand and services awareness. If our own financial resources and then current cash-flows from operations are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness will result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict our operations or modify our plans to grow the business. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, will limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have 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 that is material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
This item is not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, John Grdina, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to operate at a reasonable assurance level which is effective in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On April 17, 2013, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina entered an Order Entering Default Judgment against Dolce Bevuto, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“DB”), in favor of The Pantry, Inc. (the “Plaintiff”) in the matter of The Pantry, Inc. v. Dolce Bevuto, LLC, Civil Action No, 5:12-CV-00764. Plaintiff alleged that DB owed Plaintiff a total of $92,325 for accounts to be paid under a funding agreement entered into by and between DB and the Plaintiff. The Company intends to pursue all available remedies, at law and in equity, to appropriately respond to the Court’s order.
Other than stated herein, we know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against the Company or its subsidiaries, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholders, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the month ended February 28, 2013, we sold 44,500 shares of common stock for cash totaling $89,000 to several accredited investors, all of which was paid in cash. As of the date of this filing, none of these shares have been issued.
During March 2013, we sold 37,500 shares of common stock for cash totaling $75,000 to an accredited investor, which was paid in cash. As of the date of this filing, none of these shares have been issued.
During March 2013, the Company sold 10 units for a total of $100,000. Each unit consists of $10,000 in debentures and 500 shares of common stock. The debentures bear interest at 1% per month and a balloon payment of principal and accrued interest is due in six months. In the event of default, the interest rate increases to 2% per month. As of the date of this filing, none of these shares have been issued.
During the month ended April 30, 2013, we sold 12,500 shares of common stock for cash totaling $25,000 to one accredited investor, all of which was paid in cash. As of the date of this filing, none of these shares have been issued.
We believe that the issuance and sale of the above securities were exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2), Regulation D and/or Regulation S. The securities were issued directly by us and did not involve a public offering or general solicitation. The recipient of the securities was afforded an opportunity for effective access to files and records of our company that contained the relevant information needed to make her investment decision, including our financial statements and 34 Act reports. We reasonably believed that the recipient, immediately prior to issuing the securities, had such knowledge and experience in our financial and business matters that she was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment. The recipient had the opportunity to speak with our management on several occasions prior to her investment decision. There were no commissions paid on the issuance and sale of the shares.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
We did not repurchase any of our equity securities from the time of our inception through the period ended March 31, 2013.
