PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements included elsewhere herein.
 
Our Company

Astika Holdings, Inc., is a music publishing company in the development stage.  We own and acquire rights to musical compositions, exploit and market these compositions and receive royalties or fees for their use.  We own rights in four musical compositions included in the 1981 Hollywood movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, which generate performance royalties for us from domestic and international sources.  During the period from January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2012, we generated revenues in the amount of $1,660 and have an accumulated deficit in the amount of $5,559.

Our company structure is set forth in the following chart:

ASTIKA HOLDINGS, INC.
a Florida corporation
 
 
ASTIKA MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
a Florida corporation
(100% Owned Subsidiary)

Our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, as expressed in its opinion on our financial statements included in this prospectus.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities as they arise.  There can be no assurance that we will operate at a profit or such additional financing will be available, or if available, can be obtained on satisfactory terms.

Our principal executive offices are located at 7000 W. Palmetto Park Road, Suite 409, Boca Raton, Florida  33433.  Our telephone number is (509) 562-3211.  We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on January 13, 2011.
 
 
 

 

 
 

 
The Offering

The Issuer:
Astika Holdings, Inc.
   
Securities Offered:
40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share.  We believe that an offering of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is more attractive than an offering of Common Stock, because there are currently no shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding and such holders will be entitled to a $10 per share liquidation preference, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends on those shares, before any distribution is made to holders of our common stock.
   
Offering price:
A fixed price of $10.00 per share for the duration of the offering.
   
Dividends:
In the event that a dividend is declared by the Board of Directors on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock do not require that a fixed amount be payable to such holders.  Also, there is no preference associated with the issuance of dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  In the event a dividend is declared on the common stock of the Company, in cash or other property, the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive the amount of cash or property equal to the cash or property which would be received by the holders of the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock could be converted immediately prior to such dividend.
   
Optional Conversion:
Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted, at the option of the holder, into 275 shares of our common stock, subject to adjustment in a number of circumstances described under “Description of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.”  No additional payment is required in connection with such a conversion.
   
Voting Rights:
The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will vote, on an as converted basis, on the same matters as the holders of common stock and there is no limitation whatsoever on the voting rights associated with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
   
Material Differences Between
Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock and Common Stock:
The material differences between the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock are that holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive (i) a liquidation Preference, as described above in “Securities Offered”, and (ii) payment of dividends, as a separate class, if declared, by the Board of Directors.  The holders of common stock are not entitled to receive such liquidation preference or any dividends paid to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  See “Description of Capital Stock” for more information.
   
Common Stock Outstanding:
 
   
Prior to Offering:
8,160,000 shares
   
Assuming sale of all Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock and
conversion of such shares into
shares of common stock:
19,160,000 shares

 
 

 

 

Risk Factors:
See “Risk Factors” and the other information in this prospectus for a discussion of the factors you should consider before deciding to invest in our securities.  Such factors include, but are not limited to, being a development stage company that has earned minimal revenues and never operated profitably, needing additional financing to continue as a going concern, substantial voting power being concentrated in the hands of our majority shareholders, the dependence on our key executive, Eugene Settler, for our business operations and a competitive music publishing marketplace.
   
Use of Proceeds:
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for the payment of expenses associated with this offering and general corporate purposes and working capital, including but not limited to, adding songs to our music catalog, payments to songwriters for new compositions, marketing initiatives, executive compensation and administrative expenses.  See “Use of Proceeds” for additional information.

RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in our securities involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this prospectus in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing our securities. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks.  You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.
 
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition and Business Model

Because we have only recently commenced business operations, we face a high risk of business failure.

We recently commenced business operations.  As a result, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood that we will be able to operate our business successfully.  For the period January 13, 2011, our inception, to March 31, 2012, we have generated revenues in the amount of $1,660, operated at a loss, and had an accumulated deficit in the amount of $5,559 and t hus face a high risk of business failure.  Investing in a business in the start-up phase is riskier than investing in a business that already has a history of operations.

Because we may need additional financing to fund the development of our business, our independent auditors believe there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

For the period January 13, 2011, our inception, to March 31, 2012 , we had an accumulated deficit of $5,559.  Our independent auditors have issued a going concern opinion and have raised substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to operate profitably and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they come due.  The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time. Further, there is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove ourselves successful.  These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern.

When an auditor issues a going concern opinion, the auditor has substantial doubt that the company will continue to operate indefinitely and not go out of business and liquidate its assets. This is a significant risk to investors who purchase shares of our securities in this offering because there is an increased risk that we may not be able to generate cash and/or raise enough capital resources to remain operational for an indefinite period of time.  The auditor’s going concern opinion may inhibit our ability to raise financing, because potential investors’ could become concerned that we may not remain operational for an indefinite period of time resulting in investors failing to receive any return on their investment.
 
Our prospects and financial results may be adversely affected if we fail to identify, sign and retain songwriters and composers.
 
We are dependent on identifying, signing and retaining songwriters and composers with long-term potential, who will write the hit songs of today and the classics of tomorrow that will continue to generate sales as part of our catalog for years to come. The competition among music publishing companies for such talent is intense.  Our competitive position is dependent on our ability to attract and develop songwriters whose work can achieve a high degree of public acceptance. Our financial results may be adversely affected if we are unable to identify, sign and retain such songwriters under terms that are economically attractive to us.  Our music publishing business competes not only with other music publishing companies, but also with songwriters who publish their own works.  Additionally, our financial results are generally affected by the appeal of our music catalog, including our four musical compositions that are included in the Raiders of the Lost Ark movie, which are our primary source of revenue.
 
 
 
 

 

 

 
Due to the nature of our business, our results of operations and cash flows may fluctuate significantly from period to period.
 
Our net sales, operating income and profitability, like those of other companies in the music publishing business, are largely affected by the number and quality of musical compositions published by us, the timing of our release schedule and, more importantly, the consumer demand for these releases.  We may also make advance payments to songwriters, which impact our operating cash flows. The timing of advance payments is largely based on business and other considerations and is made without regard to the impact of the timing of the release on our financial results. We report results of operations quarterly and our results of operations and cash flows in any reporting period may be materially affected by the timing of releases and advance payments, which may result in significant fluctuations from period to period.  Additionally, our results of operations are generally affected by the amount of performances and other royalty generating opportunities associated with the musical compositions contained in our music catalog, including our four musical compositions that are included in the Raiders of the Lost Ark movie, which are our primary source of revenue.
 
A significant portion of our music publishing revenues is subject to rate regulation either by government entities or by local third-party collection societies throughout the World and rates on other income streams may be set by arbitration proceedings, which may limit our profitability.

Mechanical royalties and performance royalties are the two largest potential sources of income to our music publishing business.  In the U.S., mechanical rates are set pursuant to an arbitration process under the U.S. Copyright Act unless rates are determined through voluntary industry negotiations and performance rates are set by performing rights societies and subject to challenge by performing rights licensees.  Outside the U.S., mechanical and performance rates are typically negotiated on an industry-wide basis. The mechanical and performance rates set pursuant to such processes may adversely affect us by limiting our ability to increase the profitability of our music catalog.

Substantial voting power is concentrated in the hands of our majority shareholders, which enables the majority shareholders to exercise significant control of our Company, including the ability effectively to control decisions on all matters on which shareholders are entitled to vote .

Sawgrass Resources, Inc., owns 7,240,000 shares of common stock of the Company and Eugene B. Settler, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Treasurer owns 800,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which in the aggregate is approximately 98.5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock as of the date of this prospectus.  Accordingly, Sawgrass Resources, Inc., individually, and Sawgrass Resources, Inc. and Mr. Settler, collectively, have the power to elect all of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and effect or preclude fundamental corporate transactions involving the Company, including the acceptance or rejection of proposals relating to a merger of the Company or the acquisition of the Company by another entity.  Sawgrass Resources, Inc. and Mr. Settler are, therefore, able to exert significant influence over the Company, including the ability effectively to control decisions on all matters on which shareholders are entitled to vote.  We need to sell at least 29,674 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in the offering in order for Sawgrass Resources, Inc. and Mr. Settler to collectively own less than a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company on an as converted basis.   See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” and “Description of Capital Stock.”

Additional issuances of equity securities will have a dilutive effect on the interests of our existing shareholders.

The shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (and the shares of common stock issuable upon their conversion) are subject to dilution. The Board of Directors expects, and we may need to issue, additional shares of common stock or preferred stock in one or more series or classes to new investors in the future.  We have sole discretion to sell additional equity securities to new investors, and may even sell equity securities at a lower purchase price per share than the $10 per share offering price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  We may also sell new series or classes of equity securities with rights, preferences and privileges senior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock without your consent.  Any issuance of additional equity securities, regardless of valuation, will have a dilutive effect on your ownership interest of our Company and could adversely affect your rights associated with your ownership of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or common stock.
 
 
 

 


 
We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any December 31 before that time, in which case we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile should such a trading market develop.

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Risks Related To This Offering

We may not receive enough capital from this offering to enable us to continue operating our business.

We are dependent on the availability of capital from this offering to proceed with our business plan.  We are selling the shares directly to public at a fixed price of $10 per share for the duration of the offering, without the use of a registered broker/dealer firm, so we may not sell a sufficient number of shares to successfully implement our business plan.  We have no commitments for additional capital as of the date of this prospectus and will not seek other capital until the termination of this offering.  Accordingly, investors are advised that the proceeds of this offering may not be sufficient to enable us to conduct our business; and, if additional sufficient capital is not received, we may have to curtail our operations or liquidate our assets.

This is a risky investment because there is no minimum number of shares that must be sold in this offering.

There is no minimum number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that must be sold in this offering.  The funds raised in this offering may not be sufficient to defray the costs associated with making this offering and provide us with enough working capital to successfully launch our business.  Because there is no minimum number of shares that must be sold in this offering, the funds raised in this offering may not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses and, therefore, we may have to curtail our operations or liquidate our assets.

 
 
 
 

 


 
 
 
If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares.

There is presently no public market for our shares of common stock or Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  We intend to engage a market maker to make a market only in our common stock; however, there is no assurance that a trading market will develop or be sustained in our common stock.  We do not intend to develop a trading market for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  Accordingly, you may have to hold the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or common stock indefinitely and may have difficulty selling  such shares.  We currently plan to hire a securities broker to serve as our market maker by filing an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.  However, our shares of common stock may never be traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, or, if traded, a public market may not materialize.  To date we have not solicited any securities brokers to become market makers of our common stock and there can be no guarantee that we will able to find a market maker willing to file an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement.  We anticipate that it may take approximately two months from the date of this prospectus for a market maker to file an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, and that it may take approximately four months from the date of this prospectus for our common stock to be quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board.  However, any application filed by a market maker on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board may not be approved.   If a public market for our common stock does not develop investors may not be able to re-sell their shares and may lose all of their investment.

If shareholders sell a large number of shares all at once or in blocks after this offering, the market price of our shares would most likely decline.

We are offering 40,000 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a fixed price of $10 per share for the duration of the offering, which are convertible into 11,000,000 shares of our common stock.  If all of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered in the offering are sold and assuming such shares are converted into shares of common stock, these shares of common stock will represent approximately 57.4% of the outstanding shares of common stock as of the date of this prospectus.    Our shares of common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are presently not traded on any market or securities exchange, but should a market develop in our common stock, shares sold at a price below the current market price at which the common stock is trading will cause the market price to decline. Moreover, the offer or sale of a large number of shares at any price may likely cause the market price to fall.

Because we will be subject to the “Penny Stock” rules once our shares are quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, the level of trading activity in our shares of common stock may be reduced.

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges or quoted on Nasdaq). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and ask quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.
 
 
 
 

 


 
As a result of our registration statement being declared effective, of which this prospectus forms a part, we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC and our securities will not be eligible for quotation if we are not current in our filings with the SEC.

As a result of our registration statement being declared effective, of which this prospectus forms a part,   we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC in order for the shares of our common stock to be eligible for quotation on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board.  In the event that we become delinquent in our required filings with the SEC, quotation of our common stock will be terminated following a 30 or 60 day grace period if we do not make our required filings during that time. If our shares are not eligible for quotation on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares.

The offering price of $10.00 per share for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is speculative.

The offering price of $10.00 per share for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is fixed for the duration of the offering.  The offering price has been arbitrarily determined by our management and does not bear any relationship to the assets, net worth or actual or projected earnings of the Company or any other generally accepted criteria of value.

We do not pay any cash dividends.

USE OF PROCEEDS
 
Our principal reasons for conducting this offering at this time are to raise capital for working capital and general corporate purposes, including but not limited to, songwriter payments, adding music to our catalog, marketing, executive compensation and administrative expenses.  Total estimated offering expenses of $50,000 to be paid from the proceeds of the offering are described in the table below.  No other expenses of the offering are anticipated being paid from the proceeds of the offering.

MARKET FOR THE SHARES

There is no public market for our shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or our common stock.  There can be no assurance that a market in our common stock will develop, or, if such a trading market is developed, that it can be maintained with liquidity.  We do not intend to develop a trading market for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  As of May 31, 2012, we have 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized and none issued and 140,000,000 shares of common stock authorized, of which 8,160,000 shares are issued and outstanding.  None of the outstanding shares of common stock have been registered under the Securities Act, and all of which are deemed to be “restricted securities”, as that term is defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.  These shares will be available for sale in the public market subject to compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or must be registered under the Securities Act. We currently have four shareholders of record of our shares of common stock and no holders of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  As of the date hereof, we have not provided to any shareholder registration rights to register under the Securities Act any shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or common stock.

Sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market following the offering could have an adverse effect on the price of the common stock and may make it more difficult for us to sell shares of common stock in the future at times and for prices that we deem appropriate.  Following the offering and assuming all of the shares offered hereby are sold, we will have outstanding 40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or an additional 11,000,000 shares of common stock, if the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered hereby are converted into shares of common stock), which will be freely tradable shares.

We currently plan to hire a securities broker to serve as our market maker by filing an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.  We anticipate that it may take approximately two months from the date of this prospectus for a market maker to file an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, and that it may take approximately four months from the date of this prospectus for our common stock to be quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board.  However, any application filed by a market maker on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board may not be approved.

The Penny Stock Rules

The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. If our shares fall within the definition of a penny stock they will become subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse, excluding the value of one’s personal residence). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker- dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. The penny stock rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of our shareholders to sell our shares of common stock in the secondary market.

 
 
 

 

 
 

 
DIVIDEND POLICY

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being offered by this prospectus does not carry a fixed periodic dividend. In the event a dividend is declared on our common stock, in cash or other property, the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive the amount of cash or property equal to the cash or property which would be received by the holders of the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock could be converted immediately prior to such dividend.  In the event that a dividend is declared by the Board of Directors on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock do not require that a fixed amount be payable to such holders.  Also, there is no preference associated with the issuance of dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  We have not paid any dividends, and it is not anticipated that any dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future will be determined by the Board of Directors in light of conditions then existing, including the company's earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE, CONVERSION PRICE AND CONVERSION RATIO

Our management has arbitrarily determined the price of the shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock we are offering for sale under this prospectus, as well as, the conversion price and the conversion ratio of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock.  The offering price, conversion price and conversion ratio bear no relationship whatsoever to our assets, earnings, book value or other criteria of value. Among the factors considered were:
 
●     our lack of operating history;
 
●     the proceeds to be raised by the offering;
 
●     the amount of capital to be contributed by investors in this offering in proportion to the amount of stock to be
        retained by our existing shareholders; and
 
●     our relative cash requirements.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
CAPITALIZATION
 
The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents and capitalization as of March 31, 2012:
 
       on an actual basis; and
 
●       on a pro forma as adjusted basis to reflect the receipt by us of the net proceeds from the sale of 40,000 shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a fixed public offering price of $10.00 per share for the duration of the offering, after deducting our estimated offering expenses, which are estimated to be $50,000, and the conversion of all 40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into an aggregate of 11,000,000 shares of common stock.

DILUTION
 
Our net tangible book value as of March 31, 2012 was approximately $11,753, or $0.001 per share of common stock.  Net tangible book value per share represents total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding.  After giving effect to the issuance and sale by us of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in this offering at the public offering price of $10.00 per share, which has been fixed for the duration of the offering,   and after deducting our estimated offering expenses in the amount of $50,000, and the conversion of such shares into shares of common stock, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2012 would have been approximately $0.006, $0.012, $0.016, and $0.019 per share, respectively.  The following table illustrates this dilution to new investors on a per common share basis:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements; and (ii) the section of this prospectus entitled “Description of Business” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
Overview

We are a company in the development stage.  The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Astika Music Entertainment, Inc., engages in the music publishing business.  We own and acquire rights to musical compositions, exploit and market these compositions and receive royalties or fees for their use.  Our primary activities through the date of this prospectus have been related to the acquisition and administration of musical compositions, including four musical compositions from the 1981 Hollywood movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark and preparing for this offering.  For the period January 13, 2011 (inception) through March 31, 2012, we have generated revenues in the amount of $1,660 and have incurred losses in the amount of $5,559.  Based upon our working capital as of March 31, 2012 in the amount of $9,048, we require equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations.  If we are unable to obtain such additional financing on a timely basis, we may be forced to discontinue our operations and liquidate our assets.  See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Availability of Additional Funds” below.

Plan of Operation
 
Our business plan is to generate recurring royalties from our music catalog through the engagement of songwriters and composers to write musical compositions and the acquisition of rights to musical compositions, including music catalogs, which have generated recurring royalties in the past.  During the 24-month period following the completion of this offering, we intend to implement our business development plan in two phases at an additional cost of $350,000.  To achieve our anticipated milestones and the projected dates of completion during Phase One, management believes that we will require $170,000 to finance anticipated activities relating to the engagement of songwriters and composers to write musical compositions. To achieve our anticipated milestones and the projected dates of completion during Phase Two, management believes that we will require an additional $180,000 to finance anticipated activities relating to acquiring rights to musical compositions, including the acquisition of music catalogs.
 
 
The following table summarizes our anticipated milestones, projected dates of completion and estimated budget allocation for implementing both Phase One and Phase Two of our business development plan.

If we are able to raise at least $250,000 but not all of the $400,000 in funds from this offering or from other sources as described below in “- Availability of Additional Funds”, our management believes that we will be able to implement a portion our business development plan that covers the engagement of songwriters and composers to write musical compositions and the acquisition of musical compositions, but on a more limited basis than if we had raised $400,000 in funds from this offering.  In this event, our management will re-examine our business activities to use our resources most efficiently, including the use of available funds to assure that we retain our reporting status as a public company with the SEC.

Three months ended March 31, 2012 compared with the period from January 13, 2011 (Inception) through March 31, 2011

Revenues .  Revenues consist of royalties from our music catalog.  For the three months ended March 31, 2012, revenues increased by $826, as compared to the period January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2011, for which revenues were $0.  The increase in revenues was due to royalty payments from Broadcast Music Inc. (BMI) on our song catalog.  We expect that revenues will continue to increase in the future as we increase our marketing and licensing activities and add songs to our catalog.

General and Administrative Expenses .  General and administrative expenses consist primarily of corporate support expenses such as legal and accounting fees, and director stock compensation expenses.  For the three months ended March 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses increased by $2,442, as compared to the period January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2011. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due primarily to the increase in professional fees relating to this offering.  We expect that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we incur additional costs to support the growth in our business and costs relating to maintaining our status as a public reporting company with the SEC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:

 
As of
December 31, 2 011
   
As of
March 31, 2012
 
           
           
Cash
  $ 8,033     $ 11,048  
Working Capital
    8,033       9,048  
Debt (current)
    -       2,000  

From January 13, 2011 (inception) through March 31, 2012, we raised a total of $17,400 from the issuance of common stock.
 
 
 
 

 



 
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

We experienced negative cash flow from operating activities for the period January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2012 in the amount of $3,054.  The cash used in operating activities during this period was due to cash used to fund a net loss of $5,559, adjusted for non-cash expenses related to amortization of intangible assets, depreciation on office equipment, issuance of common stock to directors for services, as well as the increase in accounts payable for legal services in the amount of $2,000.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

We experienced negative cash flow from investing activities for the period January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2012 in the amount of $3,298.  The cash used in investing activities during this period was due to cash used to purchase our song catalog and office equipment.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the period from January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2012 was $17,400, which resulted from the issuance of common stock.
 
Availability of Additional Funds
 
Based on our limited working capital as of March 31, 2012 and minimal revenues, we require equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations.  We expect that our current cash on hand will fund our operations through December 2012.  Due to the impending lack of funds, we will need to raise further capital, through the sale of additional equity securities or otherwise, to support our operations.  Our operating needs include the costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures.  Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully increase our royalties and competing market developments in the music publishing business.  See “Description of Business−Competition”.

We may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital when we need it or to raise capital on favorable terms. Debt financing may require us to pledge certain assets and enter into covenants that could restrict certain business activities or our ability to incur further indebtedness, and may contain other terms that are not favorable to our stockholders or us. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or to obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms.

These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 
 
 



 
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant estimates and assumptions include amortization, the fair value of our stock, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Reference is made to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for information related to new accounting pronouncements, none of which had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had no off balance sheet arrangements.
 
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Our Company

We are a music publishing company in the development stage.  We own and acquire rights to musical compositions, exploit and market these compositions and receive royalties or fees for their use.  We own rights in four musical compositions included in the 1981 Hollywood movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, which generate performance royalties for us from domestic and international sources.  During the period from January 13, 2011, our inception, through March 31, 2012, we generated revenues in the amount of $1,660 and have an accumulated deficit in the amount of $5,559.

Our company structure is set forth in the following chart:

ASTIKA HOLDINGS, INC.
a Florida corporation
 
 
ASTIKA MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
a Florida corporation
(100% Owned Subsidiary)

Our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, as expressed in its opinion on our financial statements included in this prospectus.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities as they arise.  There can be no assurance that we will operate at a profit or such additional financing will be available, or if available, can be obtained on satisfactory terms.

Our principal executive offices are located at 7000 W. Palmetto Park Road, Suite 409, Boca Raton, Florida  33433.  Our telephone number is (509) 562-3211.  We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on January 13, 2011.  Our fiscal year end is December 31.

Principal Products
 
Music publishing involves the acquisition of rights to, and licensing of, musical compositions (as opposed to recordings) from songwriters, composers and other third-party holders of rights in compositions.  In return for promoting, placing, marketing and administering the creative output of a songwriter, or engaging in those activities for other rights holders, our music publishing business garners a share of the revenues generated from the use of the song.  Our music catalog consists of four musical compositions included on the soundtrack of the 1981 Hollywood movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, which are as follows:  Dallou A; Finshabi; I M Schwarzen Walfisch Zu Aska; and Ma Bihwa Gayrak.  We generate performance royalties on these compositions from domestic and international sources.  Our royalties are administered and collected by the performing rights organization, Broadcast Music Inc. (BMI).  BMI pays a percentage (which is set in each country) of the performance royalties owed to us, which is attributable to us as the registered songwriter for these compositions.  We only receive performance royalties on our music catalog at this time.

Musical Composition Rights

We derive our royalties through ownership of the songwriter/composer's rights of the musical compositions contained in our music catalog that is registered with BMI.  We expect that in the future rights through contracts with other composers and lyricists (songwriters) or their heirs, and with third-party music publishers will be additional sources of revenue to us.  However, we have no such contracts at this time.  In the event that we enter into contracts with other composers and lyricists, those contracts may grant either 100% or some lesser percentage of the ownership interests in a musical composition and/or administration rights or performance royalty rights. In other instances, those contracts may only convey to us rights to administer musical compositions or collect performance royalties for a period of time without conveying an ownership interest in a musical composition.  Contracts may grant us exclusive exploitation rights in the territories concerned or on a worldwide basis excepting any pre-existing arrangements.  Contracts may also cover the entire work product of the writer or composer, or a portion thereof, for the duration of the contract.  Contract terms will be negotiated on an arms-length basis and the terms of each contract we expect will vary.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Sales and Marketing

We are highly dependent on the movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, which accounts for all of our existing revenues.  We plan to market our music catalog to licensees such as recorded music companies, filmed entertainment, television and other media companies, advertising and media agencies, event planners and organizers, computer and video game companies and other multimedia producers in an attempt to attract additional sources of royalties for our music catalog and expanding the market for the exploitation of our intellectual property rights.

Distribution

We rely on Mr. Settler, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, to attract licensing opportunities for the musical compositions contained in our music catalog.  Mr. Settler has been involved in distribution, sales and marketing and executive positions with companies in the music industry and has relationships that he has cultivated in these positions and others throughout his career, which we believe will be valuable in attracting additional licensing opportunities and expanding the distribution of our music catalog.  See “Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons”.
 
Competition
 
The music publishing business is highly competitive and has low barriers to entry. In 2011, the top four music publishers collectively accounted for approximately 67.3% of the market based on domestic and international music publishing revenues. Based on Music & Copyright’s recent estimates published in May 2012, Universal Music Publishing Group was the market leader in music publishing in 2011, holding a 22.2% share. EMI Music Publishing was the second largest music publisher with a 19.3% share, followed by Warner Music Group (Warner/Chappell) at 14.1% and Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC at 11.7%. Independent music publishers, as well as many individual songwriters who publish their own works, represent the balance of the market with a 32.6% share.

We primarily compete with other music publishers, substantially all of which have greater experience, brand name recognition and financial resources than us.  We believe that our competitive strength lies with Mr. Settler serving as our chief executive officer and president.  We believe that Mr. Settler’s knowledge, experience and industry contacts gained by working extensively in the music business for publishers and independent and major record labels will allow us to compete effectively and differentiate ourselves from other competitors in the marketplace.  See “Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons”.

Intellectual Property

Our business, like that of other companies involved in music publishing, rests on our ability to maintain rights in musical compositions.  We consider the musical compositions in our catalog to be valuable assets to our business.  We own the songwriter rights to the musical compositions contained in our music catalog.  However, we do not own any copyrights on such music.  We consider our trademarks to be valuable assets to our business. As such, we may seek to register our trademark, “Astika Music Entertainment” and any other trademarks where we believe the protection of them is important for our business.  We currently do not have any federally registered trademarks.

 
 
 
 


 
 
 
Government Regulation

We are subject to government regulations that regulate businesses generally, such as compliance with regulatory requirements of federal, state, and local agencies and authorities, including regulations concerning workplace safety and labor relations.  In addition, our operations are affected by federal and state laws relating to marketing practices in the music industry.  Environmental laws and regulations do not materially impact our operations.

Research and Development

We have not spent any funds on research and development activities in connection with our business.

Employees

As of May 31, 2012, we employed two (2) persons, one (1) on a full-time basis and one (1) on a part-time basis. None of our employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

We occupy an approximately 800 square foot space located in Boca Raton, Florida, for office space, which is currently being provided to us at no charge.  We believe that this space is presently adequate for our needs.

Director Qualifications
 
The Company’s Board of Directors believes that each director’s experience, qualifications, attributes, or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of other directors lead to the conclusion that each director should serve in such capacity. Among the attributes or skills common to all of the Company’s are their ability to review critically and to evaluate, question, and discuss information provided to them, to interact effectively with the other directors, officers and employees of the Company, as well as service providers, counsel, and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and to exercise effective and independent business judgment in the performance of their duties as directors.
 
Term of Office
 
All of our directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or until their successors are elected and qualified. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until their earlier death, retirement, resignation or removal.
 
Family Relationships
 
There are no family relationships among any of the Company’s directors and officers.
 
Board Composition and Committees

The Company’s Board of Directors is currently composed of three members, Eugene B. Settler, Jack M. Alvo and Stephen J. Ratelle.

We do not have a standing nominating, compensation or audit committee.  Rather, our full board of directors performs the functions of these committees. Also, we do not have a “audit committee financial expert” on our board of directors as that term is defined by Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. We do not believe it is necessary for our board of directors to appoint such committees because the volume of matters that come before our board of directors for consideration permits the directors to give sufficient time and attention to such matters to be involved in all decision making.
 
 
 
 
 



 
 
Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors will adopt a code of ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The code will address, among other things, honesty and ethical conduct, conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, regulations and policies, including disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws, confidentiality, trading on inside information, and reporting of violations of the code.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
Philosophy and objectives
 
Since our inception, all compensation decisions have been made by our Board of Directors.  The primary objective of our compensation policies and programs with respect to executive compensation is to serve our shareholders by attracting, retaining and motivating talented and qualified individuals to manage and lead our business. We will focus on providing a competitive compensation package that provides significant short and long-term incentives for the achievement of measurable corporate and individual performance objectives.
 
Elements of executive compensation
 
Base salary.   We will seek to provide our senior management with a level of base salary in the form of cash compensation appropriate to their roles and responsibilities.  Base salaries for our executives will be established based on the executive’s qualifications, experience, scope of responsibilities, future potential and past performance and cash available to pay executive compensation. Base salaries will be reviewed annually and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account an individual's responsibilities, performance and experience. We will consider four factors in determining the base salaries of our named executive officers. These four factors are, in order of significance, (1) creating an incentive to achieve corporate goals, (2) individual performance, (3) cash available to pay compensation and (4) the total compensation each executive officer previously received while employed with us, if any.  We have not paid any executive compensation in the form of base salary to our management.
 
 
 
 


 

 
 
Incentive cash bonuses.   Our practice will be to seek to award incentive cash bonuses to our executive officers based upon their individual performance, as well as our overall business and strategic objectives. In determining the amount of cash bonuses paid to our named executive officers, we will consider the same four factors as in determining their base salaries. We expect that our Board of Directors will adopt formal processes for incentive cash bonuses during the next 24 months and will utilize incentive cash bonuses to reward executives for achieving corporate financial and operational goals and for achieving individual performance objectives.  We have not paid any incentive cash bonuses to our management.
 
Long-term equity compensation.   We believe that successful long-term performance is achieved through an ownership culture that encourages long-term performance by our executive officers through the use of stock and stock-based awards. We intend to establish equity incentive plans to provide our employees, including our executive officers, with incentives to help align those employees’ interests with the interests of our shareholders. We expect that our incentive plans will permit the grant of stock options, restricted shares and other stock awards to our executive officers, employees, consultants and non-employee board members. When we hire executive officers in the future, we expect to grant them stock-based awards that will generally vest over a five-year period. We believe that stock-based awards provide an incentive for these officers to continue their employment with us, provide our executive officers with an opportunity to obtain an ownership interest in our company and encourage them to focus on our long-term profitable growth. We believe that the use of long-term equity compensation will promote our overall executive compensation objectives and expect that equity incentives will be an important source of compensation for our executives.  In determining amounts awarded to our executive officers under our incentive plans, we will consider the same four factors (and use the same method of measurement) as in determining base salary. The third factor (cash available) has an indirect effect when determining long-term equity compensation. Specifically, to the extent that this factor causes us not to pay base salary or cash bonuses, it points toward providing long-term equity compensation.  We have not issued any long-term equity compensation to our management.
 
Other compensation.   When we hire executive officers, our executive officers will be eligible to receive the same benefits, including non-cash group life and health benefits that are available to all employees. We may offer a 401(k) plan to our employees, including our executive officers. This plan will permit employees to make contributions up to a statutory maximum and will permit us to make matching or profit-sharing contributions. To date, we have not offered to our employees any benefit plans, including but not limited a 401(k) plan or made, or committed to make, any matching or profit-sharing contributions under a 401(k) plan.
 
Policies related to compensation
 
Guidelines for equity awards.   We have not formalized a policy as to the amount or timing of equity grants to our executive officers. We expect, however, that our board of directors will approve and adopt guidelines for equity awards.  Among other things, we expect that the guidelines will specify procedures for equity awards to be made under various circumstances, address the timing of equity awards in relation to the availability of information about us and provide procedures for grant information to be communicated to and tracked by our finance department.  As of the date of this prospectus, we have not established a finance department.  We anticipate that the guidelines will require that any stock options or stock appreciation rights have an exercise or strike price not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of the grant.
 
Stock ownership guidelines.   As of the date of this prospectus, we have not established stock ownership guidelines for our executive officers or the Board of Directors.
 
 
 
 
 


 

 
 
Compliance with Sections 162(m) and 409A of the Internal Revenue Code
 
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the deductibility of compensation in excess of $1 million paid to certain executive officers, unless such compensation qualifies as performance-based compensation. Among other things, in order to be deemed performance-based compensation for Section 162(m) purposes, the compensation must be based on the achievement of pre-established, objective performance criteria and must be pursuant to a plan that has been approved by our shareholders. At least for the next several years, we expect the cash compensation paid to our executive officers to be below the threshold for non-deductibility provided in Section 162(m), and our equity incentive plans will afford our board of directors with the flexibility to make a variety of types of equity awards to our executive officers, the deductibility of which will not be limited under Section 162(m).  However, our board of directors will fashion our future equity compensation awards.  However, we do not now know whether any such awards will satisfy the requirements for deductibility under Section 162(m).
 
We also currently intend for our executive compensation program to satisfy the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, which addresses the tax treatment of certain nonqualified deferred compensation benefits.

Employment Agreements and Benefits

We currently have two employees.  None of our employees has an employment agreement with us.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

As of the date of this prospectus, there were no potential payments or benefits payable to our executive officers, upon their termination or in connection with a change in control.

Pension Benefits

No named executive officers received or held pension benefits during the period from January 13, 2011 (inception) to December 31, 2011 or the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

No nonqualified deferred compensation was offered or issued to any named executive officer during the period from January 13, 2011 (inception) to December 31, 2011 or the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards

During the period from January 13, 2011 (inception) to December 31, 2011 and the three month period ended March 31, 2012, we have not granted any plan-based awards to our executive officers.

Outstanding Equity Awards

No unexercised options or warrants were held by any of our named executive officers as of December 31, 2011 or the three month period ended March 31, 2012.  No equity awards were made during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 or the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

Equity Incentive Plan

We do not expect to adopt an equity incentive plan during the next 24 months. When we adopt an equity incentive plan, the purposes of the proposed equity incentive plan are to attract and retain qualified persons upon whom our sustained progress, growth and profitability depend, to motivate these persons to achieve long-term company goals and to more closely align these persons' interests with those of our other shareholders by providing them with a proprietary interest in our growth and performance. Our executive officers will be eligible to participate in the plan.  We have not determined the amount of shares of our common stock to be reserved for issuance under the proposed equity incentive plan.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During the period from January 13, 2011 (inception) to May 31, 2012, we did not have a standing compensation committee. Our Board of Directors was responsible for the functions that would otherwise be handled by the compensation committee. All directors participated in deliberations concerning executive officer compensation, including directors who were also executive officers.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS, PROMOTERS
AND CERTAIN CONTROL PERSONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
 
Transactions With Related Persons, Promoters And Certain Control Persons
 
There are no transactions involving the Company and any of its officers, directors, majority shareholders or other related persons or control persons that require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(d) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.404(d)).  We do not have an established policy regarding related transactions.
 
Director Independence

We do not have a standing nominating, compensation or audit committee. Rather, the board of directors performs the functions of these committees. We do not believe it is necessary for the board of directors to appoint such committees, because the volume of matters that come before the board of directors for consideration is not so substantial that our directors are usually allowed sufficient time and attention to such matters.  The Company believes that Stephen J. Ratelle is “independent” as such term is defined by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
General Matters
 
As of May 31, 2012, our authorized capital stock consisted of 140,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 500,000 shares were designated as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”, par value $0.001. As of May 31, 2012, we had outstanding 8,160,000 shares of common stock and no outstanding shares of preferred stock.  As of May 31, 2012, we had four (4) shareholders of record.
 
Upon the closing of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, 19,160,000 of which will be outstanding on the assumption that all 40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered hereby will be sold and converted into 11,000,000 shares of common stock.
 
The following summary describes the material provisions of our capital stock. We urge you to read our articles of incorporation, as amended, and our bylaws, which are included as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
 
Our articles of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws contain provisions that are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the board of directors and which may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a future takeover or change in control of our company unless the takeover or change in control is approved by our board of directors.
 
These provisions include elimination of the ability of shareholders to call special meetings and advance notice procedures for special meetings of shareholder proposals.
 
Common Stock
 
Voting rights
 
Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. The holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors standing for election.
 
 
 
 


 

 
 
Dividends
 
The holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.
 
Other rights
 
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of us, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preference, if any, of any then outstanding preferred stock. Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights and have no subscription, redemption or conversion privileges.  The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock which our board of directors may designate and that we issue in the future.
 
Preferred Stock
 
Our board of directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series, with such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions as determined by our board of directors, without any further vote or action by our shareholders. We believe that the board of directors’ authority to set the terms of, and our ability to issue, preferred stock will provide flexibility in connection with possible financing transactions in the future. The issuance of preferred stock, however, could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments or payments upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
 
Description of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

Pursuant to its authority, our board of directors has designated 100,000 shares of the preferred stock that we now have authority to issue as the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”.  You will not have any preemptive rights if we issue other series of preferred stock.  The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is not subject to any sinking fund. We have no right or obligation to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a perpetual maturity and may remain outstanding indefinitely, subject to your right to convert the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock. Any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted or acquired by us will, upon cancellation, have the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock of no designated series. We will be able to reissue these cancelled shares of preferred stock.

Voting Rights

The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will vote, on an as converted basis, on the same matters as the holders of common stock and there is no limitation whatsoever on the voting rights associated with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

Dividends

In the event that a dividend or distribution is declared by the Board of Directors on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock do not require that a fixed amount be payable to such holders.  There is no preference associated with the issuance of dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  In the event any dividend or other distribution payable in cash or other property (other than shares of our Common Stock) is declared on our Common Stock, each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on the record date for such dividend or distribution shall be entitled to receive per share on the date of payment or distribution of such dividend or other distribution the amount of cash or property equal to the cash or property which would be received by the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would be converted pursuant immediately prior to such record date.
 
 
 
 
 



 
 
Conversion into Common Stock

You may convert at any time the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a conversion rate of 275 shares of common stock for each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  No payment is required in connection with a conversion. We will not make any adjustment to the conversion price for accrued or unpaid dividends upon conversion. We will not issue fractional shares of common stock upon conversion. However, we will instead pay cash for each fractional share based upon the market price of the common stock on the last business day prior to the conversion date.

In order to convert your shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, you must deliver your Series A Convertible Preferred Stock certificate to us at our office along with a duly signed and completed notice of conversion.

The conversion date will be the date you deliver your Series A Convertible Preferred Stock certificate and the duly signed and completed notice of conversion to us. You will not be required to pay any U.S. federal, state or local issuance taxes or duties or costs incurred by us on conversion, but will be required to pay any tax or duty payable as a result of the common stock upon conversion being issued other than in your name. We will not issue common stock certificates unless all taxes and duties, if any, have been paid by the holder.

No commission or other remuneration will be paid or given, directly or indirectly, for soliciting a conversion.

Conversion Rate Adjustment

The conversion rate of 275 shares of common stock will be proportionately adjusted if:

(1)           we dividend or distribute common stock on shares of our common stock; or

(2)           we subdivide or combine our common stock.

If we are involved in a transaction in which shares of our common stock are converted into the right to receive other securities, cash or other property, or a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of our assets under which the holders of our common stock shall be entitled to receive other securities, cash or other property, then appropriate provision shall be made so that your Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will convert into the kind and amount of the securities, cash or other property that would have been receivable upon the recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange by a holder of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to the recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange.  The company formed by the consolidation, merger, asset acquisition or share acquisition shall provide for this right in its organizational document. This organizational document shall also provide for adjustments so that the organizational document shall be as nearly practicably equivalent to adjustments in this section for events occurring after the effective date of the organizational document.

The following types of transactions, among others, would be covered by this adjustment:

(1)           we consolidate or merge into any other company, or any merger of another company into us, except for a merger that does not result in a reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of common stock,

(2)           we sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our assets and holders of our common stock become entitled to receive other securities, cash or other property, or

(3)           we undertake any compulsory share exchange.
 
 
 
 
 



 
 
 
Ranking

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will rank, with respect to dividend rights and upon liquidation, winding up and dissolution:

·      junior to all our existing and future debt obligations;
 
·      junior to “senior stock”, which is each other class or series of our capital stock other than (a) our common stock and any other class or series of our capital stock the terms of which provide that class or series will rank junior to the preferred stock and (b) any other class or series of our capital stock the terms of which provide that class or series will rank on a parity with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock;
 
·      on a parity with “parity stock”, which is each other class or series of our capital stock that has terms which provide that such class or series will rank on a parity with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; and
 
·      senior to “junior stock”, which is our common stock and each class or series of our capital stock that has terms which provide that class or series will rank junior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

We do not currently have any outstanding capital stock, which is senior to or on parity with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

Liquidation Preference

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company or a reduction or decrease in our capital stock resulting in a distribution of assets to the holders of any class or series of our capital stock, each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to payment out of our assets available for distribution of an amount equal to $10.00 per share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by that holder, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends on those shares to the date of that liquidation, dissolution, winding up or reduction or decrease in capital stock, before any distribution is made on any junior stock, including our common stock, but after any distributions on any of our indebtedness or shares of our senior stock. After payment in full of the liquidation preference and all accumulated and unpaid dividends to which holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled, the holders will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of our assets. If, upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, or a reduction or decrease in our capital stock, the amounts payable with respect to shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and all other parity stock are not paid in full, the holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the holders of the parity stock will share equally and ratably in any distribution of our assets in proportion to the full liquidation preference and all accumulated and unpaid dividends to which each such holder is entitled.

Neither the voluntary sale, conveyance, exchange or transfer, for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration, of all or substantially all of our property or assets nor the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of our company with or into any corporation or the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of any corporation with or into our company will be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company or a reduction or decrease in our capital stock.

We are not required to set aside any funds to protect the liquidation preference of the shares of preferred stock, although the liquidation preference will be substantially in excess of the par value of the shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
 
 
 
 




 
 
 
Material Differences between Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock

The material differences between the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock are as follows:

·  
Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company or a reduction or decrease in our capital stock resulting in a distribution of assets to the holders of any class or series of our capital stock, each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to payment out of our assets available for distribution of an amount equal to $10.00 per share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by that holder, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends on those shares to the date of that liquidation, dissolution, winding up or reduction or decrease in capital stock, before any distribution is made on our common stock; and

·  
The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends as a separate class, if declared by the Board of Directors, and the holders of common stock are not entitled to receive, or share ratably in, any dividends paid to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
Anti-Takeover Effects of Our Articles of Incorporation, Our Bylaws and Florida Law
 
Authorized but unissued shares
 
The authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and our preferred stock will be available for future issuance without any further vote or action by our shareholders. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans.
 
The existence of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and our preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control over us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer or merger, or otherwise.
 
Shareholder action; advance notification of shareholder nominations and proposals
 
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by our shareholders will have to be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of shareholders and may be effected by a written consent in lieu of a meeting. Our articles of incorporation also require that special meetings of shareholders be called only by our board of directors, our Chairman, our Chief Executive Officer or our President.  In addition, our bylaws generally provide that candidates for director may be nominated and other business brought before an annual meeting only by the board of directors or by a shareholder who gives written notice, including certain information, to us no later than 90 days and not earlier than 120 days, prior to the first anniversary of the date on which we first mailed our proxy materials for the preceding year's annual meeting of shareholders. These provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control of our management, which could depress the market price of our common stock.
 
Number, election and removal of the board of directors
 
Upon the closing of the offering, our board of directors will consist of three (3) directors. Our articles of incorporation authorize a board of directors consisting of at least one (1) member, with the number of directors to be fixed from time to time by our Board of Directors.  At each annual meeting of shareholders, directors will be elected for a one-year term to succeed the directors whose terms are then expiring. As a result, our Board of Directors will be elected each year.  Between shareholder meetings, directors may be removed by our shareholders only for cause, and the board of directors may appoint new directors to fill vacancies or newly created directorships. These provisions may deter a shareholder from removing incumbent directors and from simultaneously gaining control of the board of directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. Consequently, the existence of these provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are offering from time to time 40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a fixed price of $10.00 per share for the duration of the offering. We are offering the shares directly to the public until all of these shares are sold, however, we may terminate the offering prior to that time.  There is no minimum amount of shares that must be sold before we use the proceeds of this offering.  Proceeds will not be returned to investors if we sell less than all of the 40,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being offered in this prospectus.  The proceeds from the sales of the shares will be paid directly to us promptly following each sale and will not be placed in an escrow account.

The offering will be conducted by our directors.  Under Rule 3a 4-1 of the Exchange Act an issuer may conduct a direct offering of its securities without registration as a broker/dealer.  Such offering may be conducted by directors and officers who perform substantial duties for or on behalf of the issuer otherwise then in connection with securities transactions and who were not brokers or dealers or associated persons of brokers or dealers within the preceding 12 months and who have not participated in selling an offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months, with certain exceptions.

Furthermore, such persons may not be subject to a statutory disqualification under Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act and may not be compensated in connection with securities offerings by payment of commission or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities and are not at the time of offering our shares are associated persons of a broker or dealer. Our directors meet these requirements.

How to Invest

Subscriptions for purchase of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered by us pursuant to this prospectus can be made by completing, signing and delivering to us an executed copy of our Subscription Agreement and a check payable to the order of “Astika Holdings, Inc.” in the amount of $10.00 for each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that you want to purchase.

Resale of our Shares

There is presently no public market for our shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or common stock. There is no assurance that a trading market will develop or be sustained. Accordingly, you may have to hold the shares indefinitely and may have difficulty selling them if an active trading market does not develop.  We currently plan to hire a securities broker to serve as our market maker by filing an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.  We anticipate that it may take approximately two months from the date of this prospectus for a market maker to file an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, and that it may take approximately four months from the date of this prospectus for our common stock to be quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board.  However, any application filed by a market maker on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board may not be approved.
 
 
 
 
 



 
 
Management’s strategy is to seek to have our common stock, but not our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, trade on the over-the-counter market and quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board as soon as practicable after the termination of this offering.  However, to date, we have not solicited any securities brokers to become market makers of our common stock and there can be no guarantee that we will able to find a market maker to willing to file an application on our behalf to apply for quotation of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement.  There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the common stock will develop or be sustained or that the market price of the common stock will not decline below the initial public trading price.  The initial public trading price will be determined by market makers independent of us.  You may convert our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock at any time.  See, “Description of Capital Stock - Description of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”.

Even if a market develops for our common stock you may have difficulty selling our shares due to the operation of the SEC’s penny stock rules. These rules regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.”  These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.

The “blue sky” laws of some states may impose additional restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our shares in those states.  Accordingly, investors may have difficulty selling our shares and should consider the secondary market for our shares to be a limited one.

Report of Lake & Associates, CPA’s LLC, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Astika Holdings, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Astika Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period January 13, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2011. Astika Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary’s management is responsible for these financial statements. 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 its 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 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Astika Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2011 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period January 13, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed further in Note 1, the Company has been in the development stage since its inception (January 13, 2011) and continues to incur a significant loss. The Company’s viability is dependent upon its ability to obtain future financing and the success of its future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
