NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Basta Holdings. Corp. (the "Company”, “Basta”, “us”, “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 11. 2011 and intended to commence operations in the distribution of copper pipes and fittings for sanitary engineering. In January 2014, the Company’s majority shareholder sold 100% of her ownership, which represented 80.43% of the Company’s outstanding common shares, to a third party in a private transaction. Coincidental with this change of ownership, the Company discontinued its previous business plan to distribute copper pipes and fittings and adopted a new business plan to provide aviation services to third parties. Basta is a provider of contract procurement, aviation business development and aircraft management services for fixed and rotary winged aircraft. Additional areas of existing and planned operational focus include provision of cargo aviation services, long-term lease/charter management, fixed and rotary maintenance and overhaul service, business aviation, fixed base operations (“FBO”) development and operation. The Company is currently under the leadership of Dr. Jacob Gitman, PhD, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

The Company’s primary service targets include oil & gas companies, firefighting operators and governmental agencies. We seek to operate our business on a global basis, providing aircraft and aviation services to customers in every major geographical region, including markets such as Asia, the Pacific Rim, Latin America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Many of these markets are experiencing increased demand for aviation services and have lower market saturation than more mature markets such as North America and Western Europe. We expect that these markets will also present significant growth opportunities in upcoming years as the aging aircraft and infrastructure in these markets require replacement and updates with new, modern facilities, technology and rugged fuel efficient aircraft. An important focus of our strategy is meeting the needs of this replacement market. Governments and non-governmental organizations (“NGO”s) in some of these markets have fewer alternatives, enabling us to command relatively higher contract rates compared to those in more mature markets.

 

Our business plan seeks to mitigate the risks of owning, operating and leasing aircraft through careful management and diversification of our ACMI contracts and counterparties by geography, contract term, and aircraft age and type. We believe that diversification of our operating ACMI portfolio reduces the risks associated with individual counterparty defaults and adverse geopolitical and regional economic events. We mitigate the risks associated with cyclical variations in the aviation industry by managing customer concentrations and contract maturities in our operating portfolio to minimize periods of concentrated contract expirations. In order to maximize residual values and minimize the risk of obsolescence, our strategy is to lease and contract only rugged, easy to operate aircraft with proven track records of field capable maintenance.

 

As of April 30, 2015, we provided management advisory service for aircraft and provided ACMI contract advice to a globally diversified customer base comprised of 2 entities (Monarch Air Group, LLC, and WAB International, Inc.). During 2014, we entered into several Letters of Intent with new partners and are developing commitments to work with up to 18 additional aircraft.

 

As of April 30, 2015, all of our ACMI advised contracts had the appropriately contracted number of aircraft assigned and operational.

 

Our capabilities include: ACMI Leasing, Passenger and Cargo Operations, Aircraft Management Maintenance and Overhaul, Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Management, Logistics Management for Construction, Mining, Logging, Remote Heavy Industry, Offshore Drilling Support, Aerial Mapping and Surveillance Services, Air Ambulance, Logistical and Airlift Support Services, Search and Rescue, Very Important Person Transport, Emergency Evacuation, Humanitarian Relief Efforts, Aviation Fuel Provision and Insertion and Extraction Operations.

 

The target market in which the Company will focus its sales efforts is: the United Nations, the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. State Department, the Canadian Department of National Defense, the World Food Program, Fortune 500 Companies and worldwide NGOs.

 

 

Competition

 

The ACMI leasing of aircraft is highly competitive. We face competition from aircraft manufacturers, banks, financial institutions, other ACMI leasing companies, aircraft brokers and airlines. Some of our competitors may have greater operating and financial resources and access to lower capital costs than we have. Competition for ACMI leasing transactions is based on a number of factors, including delivery dates, lease rates, lease terms, other lease provisions, aircraft condition and the availability in the marketplace of the types of aircraft required to meet the needs of aviation transport customers. Competition in the purchase and sale of used aircraft is based principally on the availability of used aircraft, price, the terms of the lease to which an aircraft is subject and the creditworthiness of the lessee, if any.

 

Government Regulation

 

The air transportation provider industry is highly regulated. We operate commercial and private aircraft, and thus are directly subject to many industry laws and regulations, such as regulations of the U S. Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”), the U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”), Department of State (the “DOS”), the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”), or their counterpart organizations in foreign countries regarding the operation of aircraft for public transportation of passengers and property. As discussed below, we are subject to rigorous government regulation in a number of respects. In addition, our ACMI lessees are subject to extensive regulation under the laws of the jurisdictions in which they are registered or operate. These laws govern, among other things, the registration, operation, maintenance and condition of the aircraft.

 

We are required to register our aircraft with an aviation authority mutually agreed upon with our ACMI lessee. Each aircraft registered to fly must have a Certificate of Airworthiness, which is a certificate demonstrating the aircraft’s compliance with applicable government rules and regulations and that the aircraft is considered airworthy. Each charter we lease requires a valid operation certificate to operate our aircraft. We are required to maintain the Certificates of Airworthiness for the aircraft under ACMI lease.

 

Our involvement with the civil and governmental aviation authorities of foreign jurisdictions consists largely of requests to register and deregister our aircraft on those countries’ registries. We are also subject to the regulatory authority of the DOD, the DOS and the U.S. Department of Commerce (the “DOC”) to the extent such authority relates to the export of aircraft for lease and sale to foreign entities and the export of parts to be installed on our aircraft. We may be required to obtain export licenses for parts installed in aircraft exported to foreign countries. The DOC and the U.S. Department of the Treasury (through its Office of Foreign Assets Control) impose restrictions on the operation of U.S.-made goods, such as aircraft and engines, in sanctioned countries, as well as on the ability of U.S. companies to conduct business with entities in those countries. The U.S. Patriot Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) prohibits financial transactions by U.S. persons, including U.S. individuals, entities and charitable organizations, with individuals and organizations designated as terrorists and terrorist supporters by the U.S. Secretary of State or the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection, a law enforcement agency of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, enforces regulations related to the import of aircraft into the United States for maintenance or lease and the importation of parts into the U.S. for installation.

 

Jurisdictions in which aircraft are registered as well as jurisdictions in which they operate may impose regulations relating to noise and emission standards. In addition, most countries’ aviation laws require aircraft to be maintained under an approved maintenance program with defined procedures and intervals for inspection, maintenance and repair. To the extent that aircraft are not subject to a lease or a lessee is not in compliance, we are required to comply with such requirements, possibly at our own expense.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).  The Company has adopted an October 31 fiscal year end.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Mercury Tours, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation for all periods presented.

 

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

·

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

·

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

·

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, advances payable and deferred revenue approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts receivable

 

The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries.  The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible.  Management determined that an allowance was not required as of the balance sheet dates.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

 

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charges as of January 31, 2015

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, products are fully delivered or services have been provided, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue from helicopter services on an “ad hoc” basis, which usually entails a short contract notice period and duration, is recognized as the related services are performed and is based on a monthly fixed fee plus additional fees for each hour flown.  The Company works as an agent between its customers and the service providers under these “ad hoc” service arrangements.  Therefore, the Company recognizes revenue under these arrangements on the net amount retained; which is the amount billed to the customer less the amount paid to the service providers.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company is governed by the income tax laws of the United States of America. The Company accounts for income tax using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our consolidated financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future. The Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the tax year ended October 31, 2012 through October 31, 2014.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising is expensed as incurred and is included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

 

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The Company issued no stock based compensation during the period ending January 31, 2015.

 

Net income (loss) per share of common stock

 

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with “ASC-260”, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. During last year, 37,500 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (“Series B Preferred Stock”) were issued. 10,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (“Series C Preferred Stock”) were issued in April 2015.  These shares were not included in weighted average shares outstanding on a diluted basis because the effect of inclusion is anti-dilutive.

 

 

Related party transactions

 

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company's securities including such person's immediate families, (ii) the Company's management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

 

The Company’s President, Treasurer, Chief Executive Office, Chief Financial Officer and director, Jacob Gitman, owns 90% of Monarch Air Group, LLC (“Monarch”).

 

Effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services of Monarch. Upon execution of this agreement, the Company received a one-time fee of $5,000, which has been reflected in revenues for the year ended October 31, 2014, and Monarch agreed to pay us 10% of gross sales generated from the flight services under this agreement. No fees were paid to Basta from Monarch due to this arrangement, and no revenues were generated from this contract as of April 30, 2015.

 

On May 30, 2014, the Company entered into an Aircraft Management Agreement with Monarch. Pursuant to that Agreement, Monarch agreed to use, maintain and operate a Beechcraft 400 that the Company leases.  Monarch agreed to maintain the aircraft and manage it at the Company’s expense and cost and the Company agreed to pay Monarch 10% of all funds received for Charters in any given month.  Additionally, pilot salaries and benefits and other expenses, as defined, will be paid by the Company. Basta received no payments from Monarch from this agreement, and no revenue was generated from this contract as of April 30, 2015.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2014-15 requiring an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 which outlines a single comprehensive model for companies to use when accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The core principle of the revenue recognition model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In order to achieve this core principle a company must apply the following steps in determining revenue recognition:

 

●	Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
●	Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
●	Determine the transaction price.
●	Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
●	Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 including interim periods within that reporting period with early application not allowed. Management is currently assessing whether the implementation of ASU 2014-09 will have any material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, an update to ASC 310, "Receivables." The ASU clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs upon either the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property or the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. The amendments are effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The amendments may be adopted using either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. Early adoption of the guidance is permitted. The impact of this guidance is currently being evaluated by the Company, but is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or disclosures.

 

 

NOTE 3 - ADVANCES PAYABLE

 

During the year ended October 31, 2014, the Company received advances from WAB for working capital purposes. The advances bear no interest, are payable on demand and are unsecured. At April 30, 2015, the Company owed WAB $29,528. 

 

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE

 

On August 21, 2014, the Company entered into a 6% Secured Convertible Debenture. The debenture carries a one year term. The debenture was issued in the amount of $500,000. The debenture has a conversion feature at a share price of $6.70. The Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) due to the intrinsic value of the conversion rate compared to the market price of the common stock as of the grant date. A discount is computed based on the share value at the time of issuance and amortized over the period of the debenture.

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

The Company entered into a Financial Advisory Agreement which included the sale of 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible into common shares equivalent to 9.99% ownership interest of the company at the time of conversion. The shares can be converted at any time. The conversion feature of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock resulted in a derivate liability for the company based on the value of the common shares if converted.

 

The Company assesses the fair value of the conversion using the Black Scholes pricing model and records a derivative expense for the value. The Company then assesses the fair value of the shares quarterly based on the Black Scholes Model and increases or decreases the liability to the new value, and records a corresponding gain or loss. The Company uses expected volatility based primarily on historical volatility using weekly pricing observations for recent periods that correspond to the expected life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities rates.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS

 

Material agreements

 

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into the following two agreements:

 

Agreement with WAB

 

Effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for Management related to two of WAB’s aviation services contracts. As consideration for this agreement, the Company originally agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of a number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be determined at a later date and each such share was to entitle the holder to a certain number of votes. As the terms of this proposed agreement had not been finalized at January 31, 2014, the proposed issuance of the undetermined number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock was not recorded in the Company’s financial statements at January 31, 2014. On March 12, 2014, prior to the amendment of the Company’s articles of incorporation and prior to the determination of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued or the issuance of any such shares, the Company amended the agreement while maintaining the same effective date. The amended agreement calls for the Company to provide management services which include vendor and financial management under two of WAB’s contracts.  The amendment provides that the Company will be paid ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues from the two contracts and eliminated the Company’s obligation to issue any shares of Series A Preferred Stock to WAB.

 

The Company has entered into an agreement with WAB to provide helicopters on ACMI basis.

 

 

WAB provides airlift support, dedicated helicopters and rotary and fixed wing aircraft to international clientele. WAB’s services include cargo and passenger transportation, logging, mining support, offshore drilling support, relief efforts, firefighting and search-and-rescue.

 

As of April 30, 2015, the Company had not commenced any activities pursuant to the Exclusive Agreement for Management. On May 1, 2014, the Company’s management decided to amend the agreement with WAB to enable Basta to enter into its own management services agreements with customers, some of which include former customers of WAB.

 

Agreement with Monarch

 

Effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services of Monarch, 90% of which is owned by the Company’s President, Treasurer, Chief Executive Office, Chief Financial Officer and director, Jacob Gitman. Upon execution of this agreement, the Company received a one-time fee of $5,000, which has been reflected in revenues for the year ended October 31, 2014. In addition, Monarch agreed to pay the Company 10% of gross sales generated from the flight services under this agreement. During 2015 no fees were paid to the Company from Monarch due to this arrangement.

 

Monarch is a Florida limited liability company that is in the business of providing aircraft, crew maintenance and insurance leases for rotary and fixed wing aircraft as well as chartering on-demand private, corporate and luxury flights. No revenues were generated from this contract as of April 30, 2015.

 

 Operating lease

 

On April 20, 2014 and effective on May 5, 2014, the Company entered into a two year Aircraft Dry Operating Lease Agreement (the “Aircraft Dry Lease”) with an individual in connection with the lease of an aircraft. The Aircraft Dry Lease expires on May 6, 2016, can be renewed by agreement in writing by all parties, and can be cancelled at any time with at least 60 day notice to the other without cause. Payments due pursuant to Aircraft Dry Lease are $10,000 per month plus $700 per flight hours flown in the previous month. Upon receipt of the aircraft, it was determined that it had maintenance issues that would keep it from safely flying for a significant period, and so the lease was adjusted to start once the aircraft is deemed safe for flight. The lease did not commence as of the date of these financial statements.

 

On May 30, 2014, we entered into an Aircraft Management Agreement with Monarch. Pursuant to that Agreement, Monarch agreed to use, maintain and operate a Beechcraft 400 that the Company leases.  Monarch agreed to maintain the aircraft and manage it at the Company’s expense and cost and the Company agreed to pay Monarch 10% of all funds received for Charters in any given month.  Additionally, pilot salaries and benefits and other expenses, as defined, will be paid by the Company. As of April 30, 2015, the Company received no payments from Monarch from this agreement.

 

Letter of Intent with Peruvian Company

 

On August 15, 2014, we entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Heliflight Peru SAC ("Heliflight Peru") which provides the framework for the leasing of helicopters to Heliflight Peru. Both parties had 90 days to complete due diligence and to execute a final agreement and one hundred twenty (120) days to close the transaction. The LOI requires that once a final agreement is reached, Heliflight Peru will be required to lease helicopters with certain minimum hours. The amount of revenues that the Company will generate if a final agreement is reached is to be determined. There is of no assurance that a final agreement will be reached, as the initial term of the LOI has expired and the parties to the LOI have not entered into another written agreement.

 

Letter of Intent with Colombian Company

 

On August 19, 2014, we entered into a Letter of Intent with Heli Jet S.A.S. ("Heli Jet") which provides the framework for us acquiring 49% of Heli Jet, which is located in Bogota, Colombia. Heli Jet is a general aviation company with two locations in Colombia that specializes in providing fixed wing aircraft leases primarily in the form of chartered jets for corporate executives. The amount of revenues which the Company will generate if a final agreement is reached is to be determined. There is no assurance that a final agreement will be reached.

  

NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Management has evaluated all subsequent events through the date of filing and there are no reportable events.

 

 

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

 

Overview

 

Please see Note 1 to the Company’s Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Current Operating Environment and Outlook

 

After a decade of unprecedented defense spending to support operations in Afghanistan and throughout the Middle East, our industry is adjusting to a period of reduced funding and budget uncertainty brought about by the convergence of a variety of policy, political and fiscal realities. These factors include the ongoing draw-down of U.S. troops in Afghanistan, and governmental spending cuts. While there exists potential challenges that could adversely impact our business on a short term basis, we believe the longer term industry trends are positive and will result in continued demand in our target markets for the types of services we provide. Such trends include the realignment of the military force structure, leading to increased outsourcing of non-combat functions, including life-cycle asset management functions ranging from organizational to depot-level maintenance;

 

While determining the size and scope of the U.S. and international presence in Afghanistan is dependent on concluding a Bilateral Security Agreement (“BSA”), we still anticipate remaining issues will be resolved and that there will be opportunities to support the enduring U.S. and NATO presence. Support opportunities include the U.S. Department of State (“DoS”), which is expected to expand and include the U.S. embassy in Kabul and four consulates around the country. Additionally, we anticipate that there will be a continued need to advise, assist and help professionalize Afghan National Security Forces for many years, as specified in the U.S. Afghanistan Strategic Partnership Agreement.

 

In the Middle East, we expect instability and challenges to our customer’s regional relationships will persist. However, we believe U.S. defense ties and presence throughout the region will continue to be of vital strategic interest to the U.S. and its allies. We believe that our aviation services and support will be key enablers in this environment and we are especially well positioned to provide these services to both U.S. forces and Allied nations. Finally, the re-balance to Asia reflects the increased importance of the Asia-Pacific regions, in both security and economic terms for the U.S. As the U.S. revitalizes and reinforces its presence in this vital region, we expect to see increased demand for our services to our existing and future customer base.

 

A convergence of market factors have led us to recognize a significant opportunity to establish a super-competitive Independent Aviation Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) service strategically located in the U.S. to satisfy soaring demands of the world’s commercial jet transport fleet. We are pursuing a strategy that not only recognizes the enormous opportunity that these factors are creating, but also introduces a market-changing business model to rapidly gain customers and control market share for sustainable long-term growth. Once established and operated domestically, we plan on replicating our MRO business model in the rapidly expanding aviation markets of China and the former Soviet Union.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We cannot be certain that the economic environment or other factors will not adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations in the future. We believe that our primary sources of liquidity of strong customer collections will enable us to continue to perform under our existing relationships and support further growth of our business. However, adverse conditions, such as a long term credit crisis or sequestration, could adversely affect our ability to obtain additional liquidity at acceptable terms or at all.

 

We are planning to finance the operations of our business with available cash balances, internally generated funds, ACMI leasing, aircraft acquisition and trading activity, and debt financings. In 4^th quarter 2015, the Company plans on acquiring a corporate credit rating in an effort to lower our cost of funds and broadening our access to attractively priced capital.

 

 

Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended April 30, 2015 Compared to the Six Months Ended April 30, 2014

 

As of April 30, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $30,330, accounts receivable of $1,392,894, Deposits of $50,000, prepaid expenses of $10,000.  Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended April 30, 2015 was approximately $221,465.

Plan of Operations and Funding; Risks and Uncertainties Related to Our Future Capital Requirements

 

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.

 

Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases i operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) acquisition of inventory; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

 

Plans to open FBO and MRO operations: The Company in anticipates that it will complete its development project for opening MRO’s and FBO’s sometime in the late 4th Quarter of 2015.  There are currently no revenue projections or business plans discussing same.

 

 

Contractual obligations

 

The Company’s management anticipates that the agreement(s) described in Note 8 to the Company’s Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q between itself, Monarch and WAB will continue along the currently existing lines.  There are no additional contractual expansions planned for 2015.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as 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 by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Jacob Gitman, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2015.

 

Based on this evaluation we concluded that as of April 30, 2015 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting including deficiencies in properly documenting customer and supplier relationships and revenue recognition procedures.

  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting have come to management’s attention during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
