Note 1 — Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Formation of the Company

 

On December 31, 2013, Energie Holdings, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company”, “Energie” or “Holdings”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with OELC, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Energie LLC (hereinafter jointly referred to as, “Energie”). The Share Exchange Agreement was not effective until July 2, 2014, due to a variety of conditions subsequent that needed to be met which were met or waived. Upon effectiveness, Holdings issued 33,000,000 “restricted” shares of its common stock, representing approximately 65% of the then issued and outstanding voting securities, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding member interests of Energie. This transaction is considered to be a capital transaction, rather than a business combination, equivalent to the issuance of ownership interests by Energie for the net assets of Holdings, accompanied by a recapitalization (the “Share Exchange”). The accounting is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangible is recorded.

 

Thereafter, on January 27, 2014, Holdings entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with two of its then wholly owned subsidiaries, Energie Holdings and Alas Acquisition Company (“Alas”). The Merger Agreement effectively merged Alas with and into Holdings, with Holdings being the surviving corporation. The net effect of the Merger Agreement was to effectuate a name change from Alas Aviation Corp., to Energie Holdings, Inc. in order to provide a better understanding to investors of the Company’s entry into the LED lighting industry. The Company’s management also changed.

 

Description of Business

 

We are focused on acquiring and growing specialized LED lighting companies for the architecture and interior design markets for both commercial and residential applications. The lighting products include both conventional fixtures and advanced solid-state technology that can integrate with digital controls and day-lighting to create energy efficiencies and a better visual environment. Our objective is to grow, innovate, and fully capture the rapidly growing lighting market opportunities associated with solid state lighting.

 

Énergie was founded in 2001 and is engaged in the import and sale of specialized interior lighting solutions to the architecture and interior design markets in North America. Our headquarters is located in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, and we also maintain a production and assembly facility in Zeeland, Michigan.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, Energie is considered to be the “accounting acquirer” and, accordingly, is treated as the predecessor company. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and financial position of Energie for all periods, and the results of operations and financial position of Holdings as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, has been derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of this interim information. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for the entire year. The information included in this report should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KT for the period ended December 31, 2013, and Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on October 3, 2014.

 

Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we had an equity deficit of $5,217,836 and a working capital deficit of $6,233,937 as of September 30, 2014, and have reported net losses of $1,720,932 and $804,786 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. 

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to further implement our business plan, attract additional capital and, ultimately, upon our ability to develop future profitable operations. We intend to fund our business development, acquisition endeavors and operations through equity and debt financing arrangements. However, there can be no assurance that these arrangements will be sufficient to fund our ongoing capital expenditures, working capital, and other cash requirements. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Additionally, current economic conditions in the United States and globally create significant challenges attaining sufficient funding

 

Although we are past due on our required payments under our debt agreements, the lenders have not made demand for repayment of the principal and interest due. If demand for payment is made by one or multiple vendors, we would experience a liquidity issue as we do not currently have the funds available to pay off these debts. We intend to enter into extension/forbearance agreements with each of the lenders; however, there can be no assurances that any of the lenders will be cooperative or that if they are willing to provide extensions or forbearances, that the terms under which they may be willing to provide them will be favorable to us.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-13 (ASU 2014-13), Consolidation (Topic 810) – Measuring the Financial Assets and the Financial Liabilities of a Consolidated Collateralized Financing Entity. ASU 2014-13 provides an entity that consolidates a collateralized financing entity (“CFE”) that had elected the fair value option for the financial assets and financial liabilities of such CFE an alternative to current fair value measurement guidance. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-13 to be material to our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14 (ASU 2014-14), Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40) – Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. ASU 2014-14 will require creditors to derecognize certain foreclosed government-guaranteed mortgage loans and to recognize a separate other receivable that is measured at the amount the creditor expects to recover from the guarantor, and to treat the guarantee and the receivable as a single unit of account. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-14 to be material to our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 (ASU 2014-15), Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-15.
