NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

 

1.     Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared according to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Section 210.8-03(b) of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been omitted.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013. The balance sheet at December 31, 2013, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP.

 

2.     Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization

 

Minn Shares Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 22, 2010 to effect the reincorporation of Minn Shares Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Minn Shares Minnesota”) in the State of Delaware.

 

The current business purpose of the Company is to seek the acquisition of or merger with an existing company.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of the enactment.

 

In evaluating the ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. Management establishes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred income tax assets will not be utilized.  The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income, which must occur prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards.

 

Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common share equivalents when dilutive.  There are no common share equivalents outstanding.

(Unaudited)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of current financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short term nature.

 

3.     Going Concern

 

The Company is a shell company, has not earned any revenues from operations since 2001, suffered recurring losses from operations, and has a shareholders’ deficit. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on its ability to locate a suitable target company and ultimately enter into a possible reverse merger with such company. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds by equity financing through a reverse merger transaction and/or related party advances, however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

 

4.     Due to Globe Resources Group

 

On May 16, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with The Globe Resources Group, LLC (“Globe”), pursuant to which Globe acquired the right to purchase, at any time through the date that is twelve (12) months from the date of the Option Agreement, controlling shares of the Company’s common stock. Specific details of the Option Agreement are set forth in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 22, 2013.

 

Upon execution of the Option Agreement, Globe delivered an advance of $59,593 to the Company to cover its expenses during the Option Period, as further described in the Option Agreement. On May 13, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the option expiration date for an additional 30 days. In connection with the extension, and again on August 7, 2014, Globe delivered advances of $15,000 and $28,018, respectively, to the Company to cover specific current payables and legal and administrative expenses related to the extension.

 

Due to Globe consisted of advances and interest payable to Globe. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $107,146 and $61,406, including $4,535 and $1,813, respectively of accrued interest, was owed to Globe. Prior to expiration, the loan bore annual interest at 5%. Interest expense was $1,138 and $745 for the three month and $2,722 and $1,068 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

On June 5, 2014, the Company received notification that Globe had elected not to exercise its option to purchase shares of the Company under the Option Agreement. Accordingly, the Option Agreement expired on June 15, 2014. As required by the Option Agreement, the Company will seek to find a third party purchaser. If sold, any consideration received will be used first to pay off related selling costs, and then repay related party payables (see Note 5). Remaining proceeds, if any, shall be used to repay advances made by Globe. In the event the Company does not consummate a sale with a third party purchaser, no amounts under the loan are payable to Globe.

 

5.      Due to Related Parties

 

Due to related parties consisted of advances and expenses paid on behalf of the Company by Paramount Trading, Ltd. (“Paramount”), a company owned by the Company’s current majority shareholder, and the Company’s President and director.  At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $217,437 and $210,373, including $7,007 and $23,464, respectively of accrued interest, is owed to these related parties. The loans bear annual interest at 5% and are due on demand. Interest expense was $2,337 and $2,336 for the three month and $7,007 and $6,995 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

6.       Income Taxes

 

As of September 30, 2014 the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $633,000 for income tax purposes that expire starting in 2018.  The Company established a valuation allowance for the full amount of net deferred tax asset at September 30, 2014 because it cannot demonstrate that it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefit of that asset. In addition, future utilization of the available net operating loss carryforward may be limited under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 as a result of changes in ownership.

 

It is the Company’s practice to recognize penalties and/or interest related to income tax matters in the interest and penalties expense. There are no interest and penalties recognized in the statements of operations or accrued on the balance sheets.

 

The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income tax examination by tax authorities for all years for which a loss carryforward is utilized in subsequent periods.

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

 

Forward Looking Statement Notice

 

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Minn Shares Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

 

Corporate History

 

Minn Shares Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 22, 2010 to effect the reincorporation (the “Reincorporation”) of Minn Shares Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Minn Shares Minnesota”) in the State of Delaware. On December 1, 2010 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Minn Shares Minnesota, pursuant to which Minn Shares Minnesota was merged with and into the Company.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the time of the merger, Minn Shares Minnesota ceased to exist and the Company continued as the surviving corporation.  As a result, the Company succeeded to all of the assets, property, rights, privileges, franchises, immunities and powers of Minn Shares Minnesota and assumed all of the duties, liabilities, obligations and restrictions of every kind.  As a result of the Reincorporation, the legal domicile of the Company is the State of Delaware. It has no subsidiaries and the Company selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.  The Company is currently quoted on the OTCQB maintained by the OTC Markets Group Inc. under the symbol “MSHS”.

 

Minn Shares Minnesota was incorporated in the State of Minnesota on January 15, 1987 under the name H. H. & P. Yogurt, Inc., and on September 8, 1994, changed its name to Minn Shares Inc. Minn Shares Minnesota operated two yogurt shops: one in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and one in St. Paul, Minnesota. Both stores were ultimately closed by October 1990, at which time Minn Shares Minnesota ceased to engage in the yogurt business, and focused its business on locating a suitable merger or acquisition candidate or investigating the possibility of becoming a closed-end, non-diversified management company.

 

In August 1993, Minn Shares Minnesota filed a registration application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to become a closed-end, non-diversified management company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”), and began activity shortly thereafter. On August 3, 2001, Minn Shares Minnesota filed an Application for Deregistration of Certain Registered Investment Companies on Form N-8F (the “Form N-8F”), which was subsequently amended on September 14, 2001, at which time Minn Shares Minnesota requested deregistration. On September 27, 2001, Minn Shares Minnesota’s registration under the Investment Company Act ceased to be in effect.

 

Subsequent to the filing of the Form N-8F, as amended, and deregistration under the Investment Company Act, Minn Shares Minnesota appointed a liquidating agent to handle the winding-up of its business activities, affairs and obligations, distributing any remaining assets to its shareholders with the intent to ultimately dissolve Minn Shares Minnesota. All of the remaining net assets were distributed to its shareholders by the liquidating agent during the period between 2001 through 2009.

 

8
 

 

In 2009, upon the approval of Minn Shares Minnesota’s shareholders, Minn Shares Minnesota approved a plan to cancel its dissolution and accepted an offer from Paramount Trading, Ltd., a Nevada limited liability company (“Paramount”), to purchase a controlling interest in Minn Shares Minnesota. Subsequently, Minn Shares Minnesota was merged with and into the Company and was reincorporated in the State of Delaware.

 

 On December 1, 2010, as described above, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 1, 2010, pursuant to which the Company issued an aggregate of 1,191,348 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Minn Shares Minnesota in exchange for the cancellation of 11,913,455 shares of Minn Shares Minnesota common stock issued and outstanding before the Reincorporation.

 

Since December 2001, Minn Shares Minnesota has not engaged in any business activities other than for the purpose of collecting and distributing its assets, paying, satisfying and discharging any existing debts and obligations and doing other acts required to liquidate and wind up its business and affairs.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company was reorganized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. The current business purpose of the Company is to seek the acquisition of or merger with an existing company.  The Company will not restrict any potential candidate targets to any specific business, industry or geographical location and thus may acquire any type of business. The Company intends to establish a market for freely trading shares following the conclusion of a successful business combination and commencing business as an operating company.

 

The Company, pursuant to SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) qualifies as a “shell company,” because it has no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations.  Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate-short term earnings. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as it is subject to those requirements.

 

In addition, the Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and exemptions from the requirements of Sections 14A(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to hold a nonbinding advisory vote of shareholders on executive compensation and any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

The Company has also elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (1) the last day of the fiscal year during which our revenues exceed $1 billion, (2) the date on which we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, (3) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (4) when the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. To the extent that we continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company”, as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company, certain of the exemptions available to us as an emerging growth company may continue to be available to us as a smaller reporting company, including: (1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act; (2) scaled executive compensation disclosures; and (3) the requirement to provide only two years of audited financial statements, instead of three years.

 

9
 

 

The Company currently does not engage in any business activities that provide cash flow.  During the next twelve months we anticipate incurring costs related to:

 

(i)         filing Exchange Act reports, and

(ii)        investigating, analyzing and consummating an acquisition.

 

We intend to meet these costs through use of funds in our treasury, through deferral of fees by certain service providers and additional amounts, as necessary, to be loaned to or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. As of the date of the period covered by this report, the Company has $15,882 in cash. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding as needed. Currently, however, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on our ability to find a suitable target company and enter into a possible reverse merger with such company. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds by equity financing through a reverse merger transaction and/or related party advances; however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

 

The Company may consider acquiring a business which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering.

 

Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks. Our management anticipates that it will likely be able to effect only one business combination, due primarily to our limited financing and the dilution of interest for present and prospective stockholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management’s plan to offer a controlling interest to a target business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us, because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

 

The Company anticipates that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

Globe Resources Group Option Agreement

 

On May 16, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with The Globe Resources Group, LLC (“Globe”), pursuant to which Globe acquired the right to purchase, at any time through the date that is twelve (12) months from the date of the Option Agreement, controlling shares of the Company’s common stock.  On May 13, 2014, the Company agreed to extend the term of the Option Agreement for an additional thirty (30) day period.

 

On June 5, 2014, the Company received notification that Globe had elected not to exercise its option to purchase shares of the Company under the Option Agreement. Accordingly, the Option Agreement expired on June 15, 2014. As required by the Option Agreement, the Company will seek to find a third party purchaser. If sold, any consideration received will be used first to pay off related selling costs, and then repay related party payables (see Note 5). Remaining proceeds, if any, shall be used to repay the $102,611 advanced by Globe, plus accrued interest at 5%. In the event the Company does not consummate a sale with a third party purchaser, no amounts under the loan are payable to Globe.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had assets equal to $18,714, comprised of cash and prepaid expenses. The Company had assets equal to $8,302, comprised of cash and prepaid expenses, as of December 31, 2013.  The Company’s current liabilities as of September 30, 2014 totaled $327,910, comprised of payables, accrued expenses and amounts due to related parties.

Results of Operations

 

Since December 2001, the Company has not engaged in any business activities other than for the purpose of collecting and distributing its assets, paying, satisfying and discharging any existing debts and obligations and doing other acts required to liquidate and wind up its business and affairs. No revenue has been generated by the Company since 2001.  It is unlikely the Company will have any revenues unless it is able to effect an acquisition or merger with an operating company, of which there can be no assurance.  It is management's assertion that these circumstances may hinder the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s plan of operation for the next twelve months shall be to continue its efforts to locate suitable acquisition candidates.
