NOTICE OF WRITTEN CONSENT IN LIEU OF MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY
AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY
Brazil Interactive Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), is making this Information Statement available on or about September 9, 2014 to all the Company’s stockholders of record as of April 30, 2014 (the “record date”). As of the record date, 45,279,114 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding.
Each outstanding share of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Holders of approximately 77.30% of the outstanding shares of our common stock prior to the transactions referenced herein have, by written consent in lieu of a stockholders’ meeting (the “Written Consent”), approved and authorized the Company to: (1) enter into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 15, 2014, by and among the Company, Cannamerica, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Hollister & Blacksmith, Inc. d/b/a American Cannabis Consulting, Inc. (“ACC”), a Colorado corporation (the “Merger Agreement”), and perform the transactions contemplated thereby (2) file the necessary certificates of merger to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger; (3) file a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to change the Company’s name to “American Cannabis Company, Inc.” upon the effectiveness of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger; and (4) enter into the Separation and Exchange Agreement, dated as of May 16, 2014, by and among the Company, BIMI, Inc. (“BIMI”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Brazil Investment Holding, LLC (“Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company and the majority stockholder of the Company (the “Separation Agreement”), and perform the transactions contemplated thereby.
This Information Statement is being made available pursuant to the requirements of Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to inform holders of our common stock who were entitled to consent to the matters authorized by the Written Consent. This Information Statement also constitutes notice of the actions that have been approved pursuant to the Written Consent for purposes of Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).
Because the Written Consent was executed by holders representing approximately 77.30% of the outstanding shares of our common stock on the record date, which was prior to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and Separation Agreement, no vote or consent of any other stockholder is being, or will be, solicited in connection with the authorization of the matters set forth in the Written Consent. Under the DGCL and our Bylaws, the votes represented by the holders signing the Written Consent are sufficient in number to authorize the matters set forth in the Written Consent, without the vote or consent of any other stockholder of the Company. The DGCL provides that any action that is required to be taken, or that may be taken, at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of a Delaware corporation may be taken, without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a written consent, setting forth the action taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes necessary to authorize such action.
Based on the foregoing, our board of directors (our “Board”) has determined not to call a meeting of stockholders to approve the transactions contemplated by the Written Consent.

Accordingly, the Consenting Stockholder represented approximately 77.30% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock as of such date.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners of More than Five Percent of our Common Stock
The following table sets forth information regarding each stockholder who will beneficially own more than five percent of our common stock as of the Post-Transaction Date. Except as otherwise indicated, we believe, based on information furnished by such persons, that each person listed below has sole voting and investment power over the voting securities shown as beneficially owned, subject to community property laws, where applicable. Beneficial ownership is determined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and includes any shares which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days after the Post-Transaction Date through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right.

Previously, its business model, where income flows from third-party telecommunications providers who bill the Company’s customers directly, did not allow the Company access to detailed information regarding the Company’s customers. Beginning in the third quarter of 2013 the Company employed new systems operated by its technical and production teams to create and maintain a constantly updated database of comprehensive information regarding its customers.

Market For Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters And Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Market Information
ACC's common stock is not currently traded on any exchange.
Dividends
ACC has not paid cash dividends on its stock since inception and has no intention to do so in the foreseeable future.
Equity Compensation Plans
ACC does not currently have an equity compensation plan.
Market Conditions and Government Regulation
Twenty-two states, and the District of Columbia, have adopted laws that exempt patients from state criminal penalties who use medicinal cannabis under a physician’s supervision. These are generally referred to collectively as the states that have de-criminalized medicinal cannabis, although there is a subtle difference between de-criminalization and legalization, and each state’s laws are different. It is estimated that the de-criminalized cannabis industry exceeded $1 billion in 2013, and is expected to continue to grow in 2014.
ACC’s business model includes rigorous due diligence to verify the legality of its activities as it realizes that there is a discrepancy between the laws in some states, which permit the distribution and sale of medical and recreational cannabis, from federal law that prohibits any such activities. The Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”), 21 U.S.C. § 811, makes it illegal under federal law to manufacture, distribute, or dispense cannabis. Many states impose and enforce similar prohibitions. Notwithstanding the federal ban, 22 states and the District of Columbia have legalized certain cannabis-related activity. These include: Alaska, Michigan, Oregon, Arizona, Hawaii, Montana, Rhode Island, California, Illinois, Nevada, Vermont, Colorado, Maine, New Hampshire, Washington, Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Minnesota and the District of Columbia.
In light of these developments, U.S. Department of Justice Deputy Attorney General James M. Cole issued a memorandum (the “Cole Memo”) to all United States Attorneys providing updated guidance to federal prosecutors concerning cannabis enforcement under the CSA. The Cole Memo guidance applies to all of DOJ’s federal enforcement activity, including civil enforcement and criminal investigations and prosecutions, concerning cannabis in all states.
The Cole Memo reiterates Congress’s determination that cannabis is a dangerous drug and that the illegal distribution and sale of cannabis is a serious crime that provides a significant source of revenue to large-scale criminal enterprises, gangs, and cartels. The Cole Memo notes that DOJ is committed to enforcement of the CSA consistent with those determinations. It also notes that DOJ is committed to using its investigative and prosecutorial resources to address the most significant threats in the most effective, consistent, and rational way.
In furtherance of those objectives, the Cole Memo provides guidance to DOJ attorneys and law enforcement to focus their enforcement resources on persons or organizations whose conduct interferes with any one or more of the following important priorities:
• | preventing the distribution of cannabis to minors; |
• | preventing revenue from the sale of cannabis from going to criminal enterprises, gangs, and cartels: |
• | preventing the diversion of cannabis from states where it is legal under state law in some form to other states; |
• | preventing state-authorized cannabis activity from being used as a cover or pretext for the trafficking of other illegal drugs or other illegal activity; |
• | preventing violence and the use of firearms in the cultivation and distribution of cannabis; |
• | preventing drugged driving and the exacerbation of other adverse public health consequences associated with cannabis use; |
• | preventing the growing of cannabis on public lands and the attendant public safety and environmental dangers posed by cannabis production on public lands; and |
• | preventing cannabis possession or use on federal property. |
Deputy Attorney General Cole is issuing supplemental guidance directing that prosecutors also consider these enforcement priorities with respect to federal money laundering, unlicensed money transmitter, and offenses predicated on cannabis-related violations of the CSA.
Employees
As of August 31, 2014, ACC had six full time employees.
Intellectual Property
ACC has filed a patent application for a child-resistant exit bag that assists owners and operators in the industry mitigate the risk of having product end up in the hands of unintended individuals. This child-resistant bag was awarded approval by the American Society for Testing and Materials (“ASTM”).
Sales, and Marketing
Sales
ACC generates it revenues primarily from two (2) sources, partnerships with its clients and certain distribution agreements.
· | Network Partnerships - As ACC continues to progress through the phases of a contract, additional revenue streams are gained by the success of its clients. ACC provides a fully integrated business-to-business solution, therefore, as the client tracks towards producing product the relationship continues to expand with future cash flows. |
· | Distribution Agreements - ACC has exclusive, preferred and strategic distribution agreements for products that are developed either in house or manufactured by a separate vendor. ACC is able to leverage these agreements to provide a full end-to-end supply chain solution for its customers. |

Brazil Interactive Media, Inc.
The discussion and analysis below should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto and unaudited financial statements and notes thereto, each filed as Exhibit C and Exhibit D hereto, respectively.
Results of Operations For the Two Years Ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012
Revenues
The Company had revenue of $7,767,779 and $3,949,624 for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, a growth of more than 96%. The growth in the Company’s revenues can be attributed to increased air time due to a variety of TV shows and increased volume of telecom minute calls due to increased audience participation. Additionally, the Company increased the amount of revenue it runs through other telecom co-billing partners at a per-minute revenue share that is substantially higher, and the Company expects to see increased revenue in the future as a result of these changes.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $6,667,446 and $2,518,980, respectively. Cost of revenues consists primarily of cost of media time, television production contractors and prize payouts. The increase in the cost of revenues was directly related to higher media costs due to competitive market pricing demands by the local television stations.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $5,160,060 and $1,017,224, respectively. The expenses were mainly composed of TV studio rent and maintenance costs, depreciation of equipment, non-TV subcontractor costs, investor relation costs, legal and professional fees, security, traveling expenses, and $3,144,536 of compensation expense from issuance of stock. The increase in operating expenses was a result of the growth in revenues from the various TV shows run by the Company.
Net (Loss) Income
Net Loss for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $4,500,294 and $329,260. The Company’s losses were attributed to the suspension of one of the Company’s TV shows and lower gross profits from the TV shows throughout the year due to technical issues with the Company’s primary telecom provider’s billing platform, along with compensation expense from common stock issuance related to refinance agreement with a third party. The Company has subsequently transitioned to a new telecom provider with a different billing platform and higher per-minute revenues for the Company. The Company’s experience with its previous telecom provider resulted in lower revenues and gross profits which were not sufficient to cover the Company’s operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources For the Two Years Ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012
Operating Activities
Cash flows provided and used in operating activities were $55,217 and $194,127, respectively, for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The cash provided for 2013 was due mainly increase in customer collections but offset by a decrease in other related party payables. The cash used in 2012 was due primarily an increase and prepayments and advances, which were, however, offset by an increase in Accounts Payable and Accrued expenses.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $47,806 and $8,450 for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This was mainly attributed to the purchase of TV studio equipment during both years.
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $36,975 and $173,334, respectively. The $31,705 provided in 2013 was attributed mainly to issuance of stock for cash, offset by repayment of loans to third party. The $173,334 provided in 2012 was mainly attributed to proceeds from notes payable from a related party.
Capital Expenditures
Overall, the Company has funded its cash needs from inception through December 31, 2013 with a series of debt and equity transactions, primarily with related parties. If the Company ise unable to receive additional cash from its related parties, the Company may need to rely on financing from outside sources through debt or equity transactions. The Company’s related parties are under no legal obligation to provide the Company with capital infusions. Failure to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial condition.
The Company had cash of $270,449 on hand as of December 31, 2013. Currently, the Company has enough cash to fund its operations for the next 6 months. This is based on current positive cash flows from operation and potential funding from investor capital groups. Modifications to the Company’s business plans may require additional capital for the Company to operate. For example, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the future, this could affect the Company’s ability to purchase media in advance and at a discount. This may result in lower revenues and market share for the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company when needed or available on terms favorable to the Company.
On a long-term basis, liquidity is dependent on continuation and expansion of operations, receipt of revenues, and additional infusions of capital and debt financing. The Company’s current capital and revenues are insufficient to fund such expansion. If the Company chooses to launch such an expansion campaign, it will require substantially more capital. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future, if at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, its growth potential will be adversely affected and the Company will have to significantly modify its plans.
The Company’s success will be dependent upon implementing its plan of operations and the risks associated with its business plan. The Company’s strategy is to purchase TV media in advance and discounted prices which also affect its gross profit. The Company plans to strengthen its position in the market.
Settlement and Refinancing of Loan Payable and Advances from Third Parties
Until September 3, 2013, the Company had a loan payable in the principal amount of $170,000, with interest compounded at 24% per annum payable in 12 monthly installments and secured by certain depreciable assets of the Company. That previous loan payable was refinanced as part of a settlement agreement, pursuant to which the previous note payable in the amount of $170,000 and other liabilities in the amount of $220,000 were forgiven in return for the new note payable of $200,000 and cash payments of $150,000. In exchange for forgiveness of the 2012 note in the amount of $170,000 and the 2012 media advances in the amount of $220,000, the Company issued a new note in the amount of $200,000, agreed to pay $150,000 in cash, and issued one million restricted common shares, subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to a two-year lock up leak out agreement, valued at $0.30 per share. The new $200,000 note payable carried interest at 10% per annum and is payable in 24 monthly installments, and the $150,000 cash payment was made as a $100,000 lump sum and five monthly installments of $10,000, without interest.

Operating Activities
Cash flows used in operating activities were $288,183 and $172,421 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The $288,183 provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was due primarily to increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. However, this was reduced by an increase in other receivables and prepayments and advances to suppliers. The $172,421 cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was attributed to mainly to an increase in Customer receivables which was then offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses due to new negotiated payment terms to vendors.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $50,737 and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. This was mainly attributed to the purchase of television studio and broadcast equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Cash flows provided by financing activities were $367,139 and $168,556 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For both periods, these cash flows provided were attributed mainly to equity issuances for preferred stock and debt issuance, as well as bank loan repayments and tax payments made which were offset by bank borrowings.

If the Company is unable to receive additional cash from its related parties, the Company may need to rely on financing from outside sources through debt or equity transactions.

Modifications to the Company’s business plans may require additional capital for the Company to operate. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company when needed or available on terms favorable to the Company.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, ACC 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.
Income Taxes
ACC elected to be treated as an S corporation for income tax purposes as provided in Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of corporate income taxes, ACC’s owners are taxed on their proportionate share of ACC’s respective taxable income. As of December 31, 2013, ACC had elected and maintained its status as an S Corporation. ACC believes it does not have any uncertain tax positions. No provision or liability for federal or state income taxes has been included in the financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue is recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition. ACC recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the related services are rendered or delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
ACC primarily generates revenues from professional services consulting agreements. These arrangements are generally entered into on a time basis, for a fixed-fee or on a contingent fee basis. Generally, a prepayment or retainer is required prior to performing services.
Revenues from time based engagements are recognized as the hours are incurred by ACC.
Revenues from fixed-fee engagements are recognized under the completed or proportional performance methods. ACC’s management reviews arrangement to determine whether or not the fixed-fee is for a final deliverable or act which is significant to the arrangement as a whole. If it is, revenue is recognized under the completed performance method, in which revenue is recognize once the final act or deliverable is performed or delivered. Revenue recognized under the proportional performance method is recognized as services are performed. Under this method, ACC estimates the amount of completed work versus the total services to be provided under the arrangement or deliverable in order to determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. Revenue recognition is affected by a number of factors that change the estimated amount of work required to complete the deliverable, such as changes in scope, timing, awaiting notification of license award from local government, and the level of client involvement. Losses, if any, on fixed-fee engagements are recognized in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and reasonably estimable. To date, such losses have not been significant. ACC believes if an engagement terminates prior to completion it can recover the costs incurred related to the services provided.
ACC has some arrangements for which the revenues are contingent upon achieving a pre-determined deliverable or future outcome. Any contingent revenue for these arrangements is not recognized until the contingency is resolved and collectability is reasonably assured.
ACC’s arrangements with clients may include terms to deliver multiple services or deliverables. These contracts specifically identify the services to be provided with the corresponding deliverable. The value for each deliverable is determined based on the prices charged when each element is sold separately or by other vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”). Revenues are recognized in accordance with ACC’s accounting policies for the elements as described above. The elements qualify for separation when the deliverables have value on a stand-alone basis and the value of the separate elements can be established by VSOE or an estimated selling price. While assigning values and identifying separate elements requires judgment, generally selling prices of the separate elements are readily identifiable as ACC also sells those elements individually outside of a multiple services engagement. Contracts with multiple elements are typically fixed-fee or on time basis. Arrangements are typically terminable by either party upon sufficient notice and do not include provisions for refunds relating to services provided.
Differences between the timing of billings and the recognition of revenue are recognized as either unbilled services or deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheet. Revenues recognized for services performed, but not yet billed to ACC’s clients are recorded as unbilled services.
Reimbursable expenses, including those relating to travel, other out-of-pocket expenses and any third-party costs, are included as a component of revenues. Typically, an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses are included in total direct client service costs. Reimbursable expenses related to time and materials and fixed-fee engagements are recognized as revenue in the period in which the expense is incurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented in the income statement on a net basis.
Revenue from cultivation supply sales, including the delivery fee, is recognized when an order has been obtained, the price is fixed and determinable, the product is shipped, title has transferred and collectability is reasonably assured. Generally, ACC’s suppliers’ drop-ship orders to ACC’s clients with origin terms. For any shipments with destination terms, ACC defers revenue until delivery to the customer. To date, sales returns have not been significant, and as such, a sales return allowance has not been recorded.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. and its subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. and its subsidiary (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses and has a net working capital deficiency, factors which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BRAZIL INTERACTIVE MEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2013
AND
THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2012
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS & OPERATIONS
Corporate History of Our Company
Brazil Interactive Media, Inc., is a publicly listed company quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol "BIMI." We are a Delaware corporation formed on September 24, 2001 under the name of Naturewell, Incorporated, which in the first quarter of 2013 became Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. through a merger that resulted in the Company becoming the owner of a Brazilian interactive television technology and television production company. Prior to 2008, the Company was formerly engaged in the research and development of healthcare products intended for a variety of conditions. On May 9, 2008, the Company completed the sale of essentially all of its assets, as a result becoming a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. As described below, we ceased to be a shell company and acquired a Brazilian television and interactive media technology company in March of 2013.
Our Corporate Structure after the Merger
On March 13, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by which Naturewell, Incorporated became the parent company of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. With the effectiveness of the merger, Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. changed its name to “BIMI, Inc.” On May 16, 2013, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Naturewell, Incorporated filed a certificate of amendment (the “Amendment”) with the state of Delaware, changing our name to Brazil Interactive Media, Inc., effecting a reverse merger at a ratio of 8,484 to one, and decreasing the Company’s authorized capital from 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001, and 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01, to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01.
BIMI, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on September 11, 2012 as Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. BIMI, Inc. is the parent of Brazil Interactive Media Participações, Ltda., a Brazilian holding company, which through its wholly-owned subsidiary, EsoTV Brasil Promoção Publicidade Licenciamento e Comércio Ltda. (“EsoTV”), combines live television broadcasts with interactive media technology and telecommunications components to create live, interactive television programming for the Brazilian viewing public. Brazil Interactive Media, Inc., Brazil Interactive Media Participações, Ltda. and EsoTV shall be collectively referred to herein as “Brazil Interactive Media”, “we”, “our”, or “the Company”. Our Brazilian subsidiary, EsoTV, was founded and commenced operations in 2008.
Subsequent to the merger, the former Brazil Interactive Media Shareholders now hold approximately 93.5% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company and the remaining 6.5% is owned by the Company's pre-merger shareholders. The Company got a new stock symbol, BIMI, which reflects the new name of the Company.
Business and Operations of Our Company
With the merger on March 13, 2013, Brazil Interactive Media commenced the business of producing live TV shows using interactive media technology to generate revenue with an interactive telephone calling component using its own unique and proprietary television programs that include quiz shows, games, psychics and live chat formats. The Company’s program content reaches the nationwide Brazilian television audience via an in-studio satellite signal uplink to a variety of Brazilian TV broadcast networks.
At our production and administrative facilities in São Paulo, Brazil, we operate two modern television studios, producing and transmitting live television content via satellite to TV stations throughout Brazil. Brazil Interactive Media currently broadcasts throughout Brazil and we have the capacity to broadcast our satellite signal throughout Latin America, if the Company should decide to expand business to countries outside of Brazil.
Through the negotiation and purchase of block television time for strategic times and networks, the Company distributes content directly to our target audience throughout Brazil. Brazil Interactive Media currently leases two satellite uplinks and produces three live shows daily, providing an average of 13 hours of live television program content every day. Brazilian television viewers participate in the shows in real time via telephone, calling into the Company’s interactive voice response system to participate in the show formats, which, depending on the particular show, could include the chance to respond to a question live on the air, or participate in a presenter’s conversation with other audience members. Audience participants calling in dial telephone numbers belonging to the Company’s telecommunications partners, which are broadcast on our programs. The Company’s Brazilian telecommunications partners charge audience participants various per-minute rates for the incoming calls and share a portion of the revenue with the Company.
The Company currently broadcasts its programs on a variety of Brazilian television networks. An anchor of our business model is our expertise in negotiating advantageous terms for the pre-purchase of block media time on channels with the audience access and available time slots that best match our audience viewing habits, and coincide with the technical and geographical capacities of our various telecommunications co-billing partners. Our programs are broadcast on the television networks where we have purchased blocks of time, generally in the daytime slot, from 11 am until 4 pm, and in the early morning slot, from 12 am until 6 am. Programming channels and time slots vary from time to time as the Company negotiates the purchase of block media times in advance and introduces new programs periodically in order to best reach its target audience and optimize our return on investment for our media budget.
Our overall target audience consists of members of the Brazilian television viewing public who use cellular telephones. During the third quarter of 2013, we began a focused effort to identify and categorize our client base, to allow us to customize our live programming and maximize viewer participation, as well as prepare for the addition of advertising to our revenue model and better inform the creative process of our new shows. Previously, our business model, where income flows from third-party telecommunications providers who bill the Company’s customers directly, did not allow us access to detailed information regarding the Company’s customers. Beginning in the third quarter of 2013 the Company employs new software systems operated by our technical and production teams to create and maintain a constantly updated database of comprehensive information regarding our clientele. This database allows the Company to match the style and content of our production to the preferences of our clients.
The Company receives revenue through co-billing arrangements with the Brazilian telecommunications partners whose numbers we broadcast on our live television programs, for audience access to our voice systems. As a result of events during the third quarter of 2013, we expanded the number of telecommunications partners with whom we operate in order to reduce the risk of underpayment due to technical and accounting issues within the telecommunications partners we employ. During this quarter, the Company monetized more than 90% (ninety percent) of the sale of its services to the public through primarily one co-billing partner, Brasil Telecom (operating in Brazil under the brand name “Oi”).
In the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Company switched providers for the majority of its telecom co-billing, and on November 22, 2013, we entered into an exclusive broadcasting and co-billing relationship with another Brazilian telecommunications partner with which we have an existing co-billing arrangement, Falkland Tecnologia em Comunicações S.A. (operating in Brazil under the commercial name of “IP Corp”). Prior to the fourth quarter of 2013, we generated approximately 10% (ten percent) of our income from IP Corp. We increased the amount of revenue we run through IP Corp in order to increase our future per-minute revenue share on more advantageous payment terms, and in response to third quarter underpayment issues caused by technical and accounting problems within Oi’s telecom billing systems.
The Company’s Telecommunications Support Service Provision Agreement (co-billing service contract) with Falkland Tecnologia em Comunicações S.A. (“IP Corp”) (the “IP Corp Telecom Contract”) was signed between IP Corp and EsoTV on November 6, 2012. A summary of the material terms of the IP Corp Telecom Contract are as follows. The IP Corp Telecom Contract is effective for 12 months from the date of signing and is extendable by its terms for equal periods upon renovation by the parties. The contract was last extended on November 22, 2013. By the terms of the contract, IP Corp provides active designated telephone numbers to the Company, the Company provides the voice content system for the numbers, and publicizes the telephone numbers provided by IP Corp via television broadcast. IP Corp pays to the Company a value of R$1.00 per minute of call traffic handled by IP Corp, on thirty day terms. On November 22, 2013, the Company amended the IP Corp Telecom Contract to give the Company an exclusive broadcasting and co-billing relationship with IP Corp for the programming of our most profitable interactive television format.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying audited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2013. 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 omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The operating results for the year ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period of a future year.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary EsoTV Brasil Promoção Publicidade Licenciamento e Comércio Ltda. (“EsoTV”) (collectively the “Company”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain items in the prior year’s financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported income (loss).
Use of Estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”)
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Such accounting principles differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in Brazil (“Brazilian GAAP”), which is applied by the Company for its annual consolidated financial statement preparation. Unless otherwise specified, all references in these financial statements to (i) “reais,” the “real” or “R$” are to the Brazilian real (singular), or to the Brazilian reais (plural), the legal currency of Brazil, and (ii) “U.S. dollars” or “$” are to United States dollars.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company and subsidiary have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a December 31 year-end.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customer’s current credit worthiness and the economic environment. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Fixed Assets - net
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Depreciable life | Residual value | |||||
Machinery and Equipment | 5 years | 5 | % | |||
Furniture and fixture | 7 years | 5 |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not make the fixed asset more useful or prolong its useful life are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
· | Level 1 Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
· | Level 2 Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
· | Level 3 Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 nor gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with guidance by paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB ASC for revenue recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company produces live TV shows including quiz shows, games, psychics and live chat formats, which are transmitted via satellite to the Company’s television broadcaster distribution channels. The Company currently leases two satellite uplinks and produces three daily live shows, providing 13 hours of live television program content daily. Members of the television audiences participate in in the shows in real time via telephone, calling into the Company’s voice system to participate in the show formats, dialing telephone numbers belonging to the Company’s telecommunications partners. The Company’s Brazilian telecommunications partners charge audience participants various per-minute rates for the incoming calls and share a portion of the revenue with the Company. Revenue is recognized by the Company when the minutes of calls from audiences are determined by the local telecommunications providers.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of media cost, leasing expenses related to satellite uplinks and other costs directly attributable to the provision of services.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
The Company conducts its primary business in Brazil and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authority. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding income and other taxes due with the tax authority in Brazil in the amounts of $624,871 and $631,238, respectively.
Earnings per share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 260 “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings (loss) per share computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Accordingly, this presentation has been adopted for the periods presented. There were no adjustments required to net income for the periods presented in the computation of diluted earnings per share. There were no common stock equivalents (CSE) necessary for the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Comprehensive income
The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification 220 “Comprehensive Income” (ASC “220”) which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during the year from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
Foreign currency translation
The functional currency of the Company is the Brazilian Real. The Company maintains its consolidated financial statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.
For financial reporting purposes, the consolidated financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the functional currency, have been translated into United States dollars. Current assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates of the year while fixed assets and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity. The exchange rates in effect as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 were US$1 for R$2.35 and R$2.05, respectively. The average exchange rates for the two years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were R$2.16 and R$1.95 respectively. There is no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of Brazilian Real to US dollars after the balance sheet date.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20, related parties include: a. affiliates of the Company; b. entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitment and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, consolidated financial position, and consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated for subsequent events through the issuance date of the Company’s financial statements.
Recently issued accounting standards
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements up to ASU 2014-05, and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception and has a negative working capital. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Management’s plans with regard to these matters encompass the following actions: 1) obtain funding from new investors to alleviate the Company’s working deficiency, and 2) implement a plan to generate sales. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to resolve it liquidity problems and increase profitability in its current business operations. However, the outcome of management’s plans cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties.

The company issued 3,740,000 Shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for the BIMI common stock on March 13, 2013. On March 22, 2013, the Company issued 1,710 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock for proceeds of $171,000 and issued 790 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock to retire a total of $79,024 in notes payable. In March 2013 the Company issued 20,000 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock to an unrelated third party as compensation for their consulting services valued at $292,739. On May 14, 2013, the Company converted all shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock to 1,875,000 (221 post-reverse split) shares of Common Stock.

In accordance with a condition to the closing of the Merger Agreement, the Company has required that the Common Stock newly issued upon the conversion of the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock be subject to Lock Up and Leak Out Agreements that restrict the transferability of that Common Stock. On October 1, 2013, 4,235,000 shares of Common Stock were issued in connection with the Merger Agreement.
On September 3, 2013, 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock were issued as part of settlement agreement, pursuant to which, the previous note payable in the amount of $170,000 and other liabilities in the amount of $220,000 were forgiven, the Company issued a new note in the amount of $200,000, agreed to pay $150,000 in cash, and issued to one million restricted common shares, subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to a two-year lock up leak out agreement.

The financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period of a future year.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary EsoTV Brasil Promoção Publicidade Licenciamento e Comércio Ltda. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported income (loss).
Use of Estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”)
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Such accounting principles differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in Brazil (“Brazilian GAAP”), which is applied by the Company for its annual consolidated financial statement preparation. Unless otherwise specified, all references in these financial statements to (i) “reais,” the “real” or “R$” are to the Brazilian real (singular), or to Brazilian reais (plural), the legal currency of Brazil, and (ii) “U.S. dollars” or “$” are to United States dollars.
Beneficial Conversion Feature
If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense, over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company and subsidiary have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a December 31 year-end.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customer’s current credit-worthiness and the economic environment. As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Fixed Assets - Net
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Depreciable Life | Residual Value | |||||
Machinery and Equipment | 5 years | 5 | % | |||
Furniture and fixture | 7 years | 5 | % |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not make the fixed asset more useful or prolong its useful life are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
· | Level 1 Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
· | Level 2 Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
· | Level 3 Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 nor are gains or losses reported in the statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date for the for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with guidance by paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB ASC for revenue recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company produces live TV shows including quiz shows, games, psychics and live chat formats, which are transmitted via satellite to the Company’s television broadcaster distribution channels. The Company currently leases two satellite uplinks and produces three daily live shows, providing 13 hours of live television program content daily. Members of the television audiences participate in in the shows in real time via telephone, calling into the Company’s voice system to participate in the show formats, dialing telephone numbers belonging to the Company’s telecommunications partners. The Company’s Brazilian telecommunications partners charge audience participants various per-minute rates for the incoming calls and share a portion of the revenue with the Company. Revenue is recognized by the Company when the minutes of calls from audiences are determined by the local telecommunications providers.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of media cost, leasing expenses related to satellite uplinks, and other costs directly attributable to the provision of services.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
The Company conducts its primary business in Brazil and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authority. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had outstanding income taxes due with the tax authority in Brazil in the amounts of $618,763 and $624,871, respectively. A portion of the income tax due for 2013, or $319,284 will be paid over time pursuant to an installment plan entered into by the Company and the tax authority in Brazil.
Earnings Per Share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 260 “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings (loss) per share computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Accordingly, this presentation has been adopted for the periods presented. There were no adjustments required to net income for the periods presented in the computation of diluted earnings per share. There were no common stock equivalents (CSE) necessary for the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Comprehensive Income
The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification 220 “Comprehensive Income” (ASC “220”) which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during the year from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company is the Brazilian Real. The Company maintains its consolidated financial statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.
For financial reporting purposes, the consolidated financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the functional currency, have been translated into United States dollars. Current assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates of the year while fixed assets and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity. The exchange rates in effect as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 were US$1 for R$2.20 and R$2.23, respectively. The average exchange rates for the 3 months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were US$1 for R$2.23 and R$2.06, respectively. There is no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of Brazilian Real to US dollars after the balance sheet date.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20, related parties include (a) affiliates of the Company; (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitment and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, consolidated financial position, and consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to unrecognized income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.
Subsequent Events

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Hollister & Blacksmith, Inc.
dba American Cannabis Consulting:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Hollister & Blacksmith, Inc. dba American Cannabis Consulting (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2013, and the related income statement, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from inception (March 5, 2013) through December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2013, and the results of its operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from inception (March 5, 2013) through December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Hollister & Blacksmith, Inc. d/b/a American Cannabis Consulting (the “Company” or “ACC”) was incorporated on March 5, 2013 under the laws of the State of Colorado. ACC is based out of Denver, CO, and operates a fully integrated business model that features end-to-end solutions for businesses operating in the cannabis industry in states and countries where cannabis is regulated and has been de-criminalized for medical use and/or legalized for recreational use.
ACC provides its clients end-to-end solutions based on its specialized knowledge of and experience with operating in regulated cannabis industries. ACC is both a consulting and advisory service provider and a supplier of products and equipment to businesses operating in this unique industry. The Company’s consultants and advisors providing services to clients consist of the Company’s two officers and directors and three independent contractors.
The Company was incorporated on March 5, 2013 under the laws of the State of Colorado. Upon formation, each of the co-founders Ellis Smith and Corey Hollister were issued 4,000 shares of common stock in exchange for $400. This constituted 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and voting rights. Mr. Smith and Mr. Hollister are the sole directors and officers of the Corporation.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on December 31.
Use of Estimates in Financial Reporting
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are deemed to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying financial statements include but are not limited to following: those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services, lives and recoverability of equipment and other long-lived assets, contingencies and litigation. The Company is subject to uncertainties, such as the impact of future events, economic, environmental and political factors, and changes in the business climate; therefore, actual results may differ from those estimates. When no estimate in a given range is deemed to be better than any other when estimating contingent liabilities, the low end of the range is accrued. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company's financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company's operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations; if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held in operating accounts at a major financial institution. Our cash balances at December 31, 2013 do not exceed the deposit insurance limits for the financial institutions.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at face amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our accounts receivable and, if necessary, establish the allowance for doubtful accounts by calculating and recording a specified percentage of the individual open receivable balances. Specific allowances are also recorded based on historical experience, analysis of past due accounts, client creditworthiness and other current available information. However, our actual experience may vary from our estimates. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability or unwillingness to pay our fees, we may need to record additional allowances or write-offs in future periods. This risk is mitigated to the extent that we typically receive retainers from some of our clients prior to performing significant services.
The provision for doubtful accounts is recorded as a reduction in revenue to the extent the provision relates to fee adjustments and other discretionary pricing adjustments. To the extent the provision relates to a client's inability to make required payments on accounts receivables, the provision is recorded in operating expenses.
Significant Clients and Customers
During 2013, there were three clients that individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total revenues, and 63% in aggregate of the Company’s total revenues. At December 31, 2013, one client represented 100% of our gross accounts receivable balance.
Fixed Assets
Equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of owned equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from two to seven years. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment as discussed below under “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” We did not capitalize any interest during 2013.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Upon such an occurrence, recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to forecasted undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. For long-lived assets held for sale, assets are written down to fair value, less cost to sell. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates, depending upon the nature of the assets. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to long-lived assets during 2013.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition . The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the related services are rendered or delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company primarily generates revenues from professional services consulting agreements. These arrangements are generally entered into on a time basis, for a fixed-fee or on a contingent fee basis. Generally, a prepayment or retainer is required prior to performing services.
Revenues from time based engagements are recognized as the hours are incurred by the Company.
Revenues from fixed-fee engagements are recognized under the completed or proportional performance methods. Management reviews arrangement to determine whether or not the fixed-fee is for a final deliverable or act which is significant to the arrangement as a whole. If it is, revenue is recognized under the completed performance method, in which revenue is recognize once the final act or deliverable is performed or delivered. Revenue recognized under the proportional performance method is recognized as services are performed. Under this method, the Company estimates the amount of completed work versus the total services to be provided under the arrangement or deliverable in order to determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. Revenue recognition is affected by a number of factors that change the estimated amount of work required to complete the deliverable, such as changes in scope, timing, awaiting notification of license award from local government, and the level of client involvement. Losses, if any, on fixed-fee engagements are recognized in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and reasonably estimable. To date, such losses have not been significant. The Company believes if an engagement terminates prior to completion it can recover the costs incurred related to the services provided.
The Company has some arrangements for which the revenues are contingent upon achieving a pre-determined deliverable or future outcome. Any contingent revenue for these arrangements is not recognized until the contingency is resolved and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company’s arrangements with clients may include terms to deliver multiple services or deliverables. These contracts specifically identify the services to be provided with the corresponding deliverable. The value for each deliverable is determined based on the prices charged when each element is sold separately or by other vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”). Revenues are recognized in accordance with our accounting policies for the elements as described above. The elements qualify for separation when the deliverables have value on a stand-alone basis and the value of the separate elements can be established by VSOE or an estimated selling price. While assigning values and identifying separate elements requires judgment, generally selling prices of the separate elements are readily identifiable as the Company also sells those elements individually outside of a multiple services engagement. Contracts with multiple elements are typically fixed-fee or on time basis. Arrangements are typically terminable by either party upon sufficient notice and do not include provisions for refunds relating to services provided.
Differences between the timing of billings and the recognition of revenue are recognized as either unbilled services or deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheet. Revenues recognized for services performed, but not yet billed to clients are recorded as unbilled services.
Reimbursable expenses, including those relating to travel, other out-of-pocket expenses and any third-party costs, are included as a component of revenues. Typically, an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses are included in total direct client service costs. Reimbursable expenses related to time and materials and fixed-fee engagements are recognized as revenue in the period in which the expense is incurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented in the income statement on a net basis.
Revenue from cultivation supply sales, including the delivery fee, is recognized when an order has been obtained, the price is fixed and determinable, the product is shipped, title has transferred and collectability is reasonably assured. Generally, our suppliers’ drop-ship orders to our clients with origin terms. For any shipments with destination terms, the Company defers revenue until delivery to the customer. To date, sales returns have not been significant, and as such, a sales return allowance has not been recorded.
Cost of Revenues
The Company’s policy is to recognize cost of revenue in the same manner in conjunction with revenue recognition, when the costs are incurred. Cost of revenue includes the costs directly attributable to revenue recognition and includes Compensation and fees for services, Travel and other expenses for services and cost of supplies. Selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to expense as incurred.
Advertising
Advertising costs, which are included as a component of selling and marketing expense, are expensed as incurred and have been insignificant.
Shipping and Handling Costs
For cultivation supply sales, shipping and handling costs are included as a component of cost of revenues.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as an S corporation for income tax purposes as provided in Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the owners are taxed on their proportionate share of the respective Company’s taxable income. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had elected and maintained its status as an S Corporation. The Company believes it does not have any uncertain tax positions. No provision or liability for federal or state income taxes has been included in the financial statements.
Earnings per Share
The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share . This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per share computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. There were no adjustments to diluted earnings per share calculation as the Company does not have any dilutive instruments.
Related Party Transactions
The Company follows FASB ASC subtopic 850-10, Related Party Disclosures , for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to ASC 850-10-20, related parties include: a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Note 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists , to resolve the diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013 for all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Early adoption is permitted and retrospective application is permitted. The Company has not elected early adoption or retrospective application of this ASU as it is not applicable to the Company.

For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, and entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

The Company’s consultants and advisors providing services to clients consist of the Company’s two officers and directors and three independent contractors.
On May 15, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with Cannamerica Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brazil Interactive Media, Inc. (“BIMI”), at which point in time, effective immediately, the Company’s co-founder and president, Corey Hollister, was named CEO of BIMI. Under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company will be acquired. The effective time of the Merger shall be upon the filing of Certificates of Merger with the Secretaries of State of the States of Delaware and Colorado, pursuant to applicable statutes. As of the date of this report, September 4, 2014, the documents making the merger effective have not been filed.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on December 31.
Use of Estimates in Financial Reporting
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are deemed to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying financial statements include but are not limited to following: those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts and unbilled services, lives and recoverability of equipment and other long-lived assets, contingencies and litigation. The Company is subject to uncertainties, such as the impact of future events, economic, environmental and political factors, and changes in the business climate; therefore, actual results may differ from those estimates. When no estimate in a given range is deemed to be better than any other when estimating contingent liabilities, the low end of the range is accrued. Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company's financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company's operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations; if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held in operating accounts at a major financial institution. The Company’s cash balances at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 did not exceed the deposit insurance limits for the financial institutions.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. There was no restricted cash included in current assets on our balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Restricted cash previously related to remaining proceeds from a short-term note entered into on March 21, 2014 (see Note 7. Notes Payable) which restricted the use of its proceeds.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets is comprised of advance payments made to third parties for independent contractors’ services, general expenses and inventory deposits. Prepaid services and general expenses are amortized over the applicable periods which approximate the life of the contract. When the Company takes title to inventory for which deposits are made, the related amount is classified as inventory and recognized as a cost of revenues (see “Cost of Revenues” below).
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the net value of face amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes the allowance for doubtful accounts by calculating and recording a specified percentage of the individual open receivable balances. Specific allowances are also recorded based on historical experience, analysis of past due accounts, client creditworthiness and other current available information. However, the Company’s actual experience may vary from its estimates. If the financial condition of its clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability or unwillingness to pay the Company’s fees, it may need to record additional allowances or write-offs in future periods. This risk is mitigated to the extent that the Company receives retainers from its clients prior to performing significant services.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded as a reduction in revenue to the extent the provision relates to fee adjustments and other discretionary pricing adjustments. To the extent the provision relates to a client's inability to make required payments on accounts receivables, the provision is recorded in operating expenses.
Significant Clients and Customers
For the three months ended June 30, 2014, three clients individually accounted for 10% or more and 65% in aggregate of the Company’s total revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, three clients individually accounted for 10% or more and 66% in aggregate of the Company’s total revenues. The Company did not have any revenues during fiscal year 2013.
The Company did not have any outstanding gross accounts receivables at June 30, 2014. At December 31, 2013, one client represented 100% of its gross accounts receivable balance of $1,250.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and Equipment is stated at net book value, cost less depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of owned equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from two to seven years. Property and equipment is reviewed for impairment as discussed below under “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” The Company did not capitalize any interest as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Upon such an occurrence, recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to forecasted undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. For long-lived assets held for sale, assets are written down to fair value, less cost to sell. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates, depending upon the nature of the assets. The Company had not recorded any impairment charges related to long-lived assets as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition . The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the related services are rendered or delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company primarily generates revenues from professional services consulting agreements. These arrangements are generally entered into on a time basis, for a fixed-fee or on a contingent fee basis. Generally, a prepayment or retainer is required prior to performing services.
Revenues from time-based engagements are recognized as the hours are incurred by the Company.
Revenues from fixed-fee engagements are recognized under the completed or proportional performance methods. Management reviews arrangement to determine whether or not the fixed-fee is for a final deliverable or act which is significant to the arrangement as a whole. If it is, revenue is recognized under the completed performance method, in which revenue is recognized once the final act or deliverable is performed or delivered. Revenue recognized under the proportional performance method is recognized as services are performed. Under this method, the Company estimates the amount of completed work in comparison to the total services to be provided under the arrangement or deliverable in order to determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. Revenue recognition is affected by a number of factors that change the estimated amount of work required to complete the deliverable, such as changes in scope, timing, awaiting notification of license award from local government, and the level of client involvement. Losses, if any, on fixed-fee engagements are recognized in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and reasonably estimable. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, such losses have not been significant. The Company believes if an engagement terminates prior to completion it can recover the costs incurred related to the services provided.
The Company has some arrangements for which revenues are contingent upon achieving a pre-determined deliverable or future outcome. Any contingent revenue for these arrangements is not recognized until the contingency is resolved and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company’s arrangements with clients may include terms to deliver multiple services or deliverables. These contracts specifically identify the services to be provided with the corresponding deliverable. The value for each deliverable is determined based on the prices charged when each element is sold separately or by other vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”). Revenues are recognized in accordance with our accounting policies for the elements as described above. The elements qualify for separation when the deliverables have value on a stand-alone basis and the value of the separate elements can be established by VSOE or an estimated selling price. While assigning values and identifying separate elements requires judgment, generally selling prices of the separate elements are readily identifiable as the Company also sells those elements individually outside of a multiple services engagement. Contracts with multiple elements are typically fixed-fee or on time basis. Arrangements are typically terminable by either party upon sufficient notice and do not include provisions for refunds relating to services provided.
Differences between the timing of billings and the recognition of revenue are recognized as either unbilled services or deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheet. Revenues recognized for services performed, but not yet billed to clients are recorded as unbilled services.
Reimbursable expenses, including those relating to travel, other out-of-pocket expenses and any third-party costs, are included as a component of revenues. Typically, an equivalent amount of reimbursable expenses are included in total direct client service costs. Reimbursable expenses related to time and materials and fixed-fee engagements are recognized as revenue in the period in which the expense is incurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented in the statement of operations on a net basis.
Revenue from supply and equipment sales, including the delivery fee, is recognized when an order has been obtained, the price is fixed and determinable, the product is shipped, title has transferred and collectability is reasonably assured. Generally, our suppliers’ drop-ship orders to our clients with origin terms. For any shipments with destination terms, the Company defers revenue until delivery to the customer. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, sales returns had not been significant and as such, a sales return allowance had not been recorded.
Cost of Revenues
The Company’s policy is to recognize costs of revenue in the same manner in conjunction with revenue recognition. Cost of revenue includes the costs directly attributable to revenue recognition and includes compensation and fees for services, travel and other expenses for services and cost of products and equipment. Selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to expense as incurred.
Advertising
Advertising costs are included as a component of selling and marketing expense and are expensed as incurred. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, these costs were $8,252 and $8,322, respectively. There were no such costs during fiscal 2013.
Shipping and Handling Costs
For supply and equipment sales, shipping and handling costs are included as a component of cost of revenues.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as an S corporation for income tax purposes as provided in Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the owners are taxed on their proportionate share of the respective Company’s taxable income. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had elected and maintained its status as an S Corporation. The Company believes it does not have any uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and accordingly, no liability for federal or state income taxes was included in the financial statements as of these dates, and no provision for federal or state income taxes has been included in the financial statements during the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
Earnings per Share
The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share . This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per share computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. There were no adjustments to the diluted earnings per share calculation as the Company does not have any dilutive instruments during the periods presented.
Related Party Transactions
The Company follows FASB ASC subtopic 850-10, Related Party Disclosures , for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to ASC 850-10-20, related parties include: a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which statements of operation are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which statements of operations are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
See Note 9 Related Party Transactions for associated disclosures.
Note 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists,” to resolve the diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. Although permitted by the ASU, the Company did not elect early adoption or retrospective application. As such, the ASU became effective prospectively for the Company as of its first quarter of 2014. As of June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits that meet the conditions described by the ASU; accordingly, the ASU did not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,”Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. This ASU requires revenue to be recognized to reflect the consideration an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers in the appropriate period. This ASU also requires disclosures enabling users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are required. The Company will be required to implement this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, using one of two prescribed retrospective methods. No early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of adoption on the consolidated financial statements.
There have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.
