NOTE 1 – GENERAL

The accompanying condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The Company has had recurring operating losses since inception and is dependent upon financing to continue operations. These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue in existence should immediate and short term financing options not be available. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue its existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Currently the Company has minimal cash on hand and few material assets outside key intellectual property. In addition, the Company has not established nor maintained a recurring source of revenues to sufficiently cover or offset any current, anticipated or planned operating costs to allow it to continue as a going concern. It is the intent of the Company to find additional capital funding, grow revenues organically through new program launches and marketing campaigns and/or a profitable business venture to acquire or merge.

These additional payments are to begin once the Company secures a minimum investment of two hundred fifty thousand dollars within ninety days of the executed settlement agreements. The Creditor Parties listed above have the right to rescind the newly executed Settlement Agreements if the Company fails to begin the payments within ninety days. In addition to the cash payments, the Parties were granted ten year Warrants for a total of five million shares at an excise price of one cent.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

From 2004 until 2008 the Company was in the business of developing, deploying and marketing semi-custom and customized branded prepaid and prepaid card solutions. Due to continued losses from operations during 2009, the Company began winding down its principal business operations and commenced a search for a new business venture. The Company has no material assets and significant liabilities. Former board members and management were unsuccessful in securing a new business venture for the Company and on January 22, 2009, transferred control of the Company to Ronald N. Vance, former company counsel, to seek for and, if possible, locate a suitable operating business venture willing to take control of the Company.

On August 12, 2009, the Company changed its status from shell Company to operating Company. Pursuant to business operations re-established in 2009, the Company restarted operations. The core focus of the restarted operations is marketing prepaid card products, payment reporting products and a suite of personal financial products and services. As a result, and at this time, the Company does not plan to reinstate its previous program management status, and will instead rely on third party processors, program managers and banks to coordinate, issue and manage prepaid card portfolios on behalf of the Company. The Company will focus on the marketing of network branded third party card programs that can adopt our payment reporting platform within their technical infrastructure. By leveraging existing card platforms and portfolios, we should be able to aggregate more payment reporting customers. The Company has also begun negotiations to engage businesses in the sales process. The targeted focus of the Company is to partner with businesses which deliver non-bank personal and financial services such as insurance agencies, micro-loan centers, rent to own, local/regional credit unions and check cashing businesses. As of the date of this report, the Company has been engaged in a host of negotiations for various credit products, budgeting tools, payment reporting products, strategic arrangements and operating agreements. While various new agreements are in place, it is indeterminable how such agreements may positively or adversely affect the business. As a result, the Company, while attempting to generate newfound revenue streams, will continue seeking opportunities for outside business ventures and raising funds to aid in launching new opportunities, work to begin generating organic revenues and developing strategic alliances and payment reporting partnerships.

Recent Developments

For the three quarters ending September 30, 2013, all primary operational efforts have been prioritized and focused on the planned rollout of the Company’s products and services. This effort continues as a spillover from the delays associated with the restarted operations dating back to 2009. Failures to secure sustained funding for operations have hampered operational efforts and delayed product rollouts but the Company has begun marketing its product line on a limited basis. The shortfalls in funding are the direct result of three groups over the course of a two year period failing to deliver on promised funds under signed placement agreements. Despite working capital shortfalls and operational delays, the Company continues its progress, though limited at best, and the Company has continued working closely with new partners and associations in efforts to generate customer awareness and generate revenues for the Company. Throughout the first three quarters and subsequently thereafter, the Company also engaged in signing new agreements, terminating existing agreements and restructuring deals to help ensure the viability of the entity long-term. Key management personnel have continued entering into new distribution, strategic partnerships and operating agreements in support of the payment reporting, credit building and financial products that is now the backbone of the financial industry. The Company has refocused away from needing to be a marketer of prepaid cards and instead prefers to align with any business which has credit turn-downs as these consumers are actively seeking a loan and the Company’s product line can help accommodate their needs. During the first three quarters, the Company made limited progress in marketing the primary products and services in support of continued operations. In continuing with the direction outlined throughout the past two years, the Company continued to focus on developing marketing partnerships with auto dealerships, mortgage industry businesses, etc. to facilitate the distribution of the Company’s personal financial services and video communication products, all of which are designed to assist consumers in managing individual personal finances, including spending, budgeting and financial awareness.

The Company believes that this strategy will be able to offer more predictable low cost model that will provide our customers and strategic distribution partners the flexibility of working with wide reaching portfolio program channels and will better align credit seeking consumers with a suite of financial tools that include personal budgeting and credit building tools and a financial management spending analysis tool. We piloted a similar program in the past, but without specific target or installed consumer base, the Company is uncertain when we may anticipate sustained revenues to carry the overhead of the Company.

In addition, a number of initiatives undertaken during the first three quarters by the Company have failed or taken longer than expected or anticipated. Capital constraints coupled with key management time constraints, increasing regulatory requirements, lengthening approval timeframes and vendor payment shortfalls and increasing legal procedures all contributed to slower than planned marketing as well as delays in generating organic revenues in the first two quarters. The Company expects that organic revenues will continue to be generated on a limited basis during the second half of 2013 to allow the Company to hire third parties to staff and support the program development and primary growth objectives.

Throughout the first three quarters of 2013, the Company was contacted by several vendors demanding payment for prior services. The Company, as of the date of this report, is underfunded and is nearly insolvent. The financial commitments entered into in 2010 and 2011 were intended to provide improved funding over the coming quarters and was expected to allow the Company to remain focused on the core business and delivery of the payment reporting personal financial products and services. However, slow delivery of working capital and delays and misrepresentations in funding overall have resulted in the near collapse of the Company. The Company continues to negotiate with new vendors, key vendors and prior service providers. Key management personnel have accrued wages and continue to accrue wages and accept limited or partial payments for services. In addition, key management personnel are underwriting many operational expenses of the Company and are accruing those expenses as well. It is anticipated that key management personnel and key vendors and prior service providers shall be reimbursed accordingly once additional working capital is invested. A continued and substantial backlog of liabilities remains on the records of the Company, but management remain confident that those liabilities will be paid, negotiated, reduced or addressed in the coming quarters. Of the major items outstanding, an area of concern was the lapsed settlement agreements with former directors Knitowski, Dang and their related parties, Dang, Ecewa, Curo and Sagoso. The Company spent significant time addressing these issues and reached settlement agreements with all associated parties on July 2, 2013. As expected that the Company resolved any and all outstanding issues regarding these parties listed above through arranged cash payments and additional Warrants in order to mitigate any liabilities towards the Company.

Key Accounting Policies

Key accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. There were no changes to our key accounting policies for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2013

In the third quarter of 2013 we were focused on the technical infrastructure and executing distribution, marketing and strategic agreements. Delays in delivering marketing and services coupled with delayed vendor payments caused us to miss the opportunity to generate any material revenues during the quarter. The Company had $7,497 revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 comparable to revenue of $813 for the same quarter last year.

Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations was $7,497 and $813 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $6,684 or effectively 822%. As previously discussed, we revised the business strategy to focus on restarting operations and take the company into financial services marketing and move away from direct program management.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales was $2,628 and $295 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The increase was 791% and incudes some nominal operating cost associated with the commencement of programs and operations.

The resulting gross profit was $4,869 and $518 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Management expects gross profit margin to remain unpredictable and volatile as the new operations begin. Fluctuations can be anticipated due to uncertainties in accessing markets coupled with higher product costs mixed with the volatility of entering markets where products have been commoditized. Management believes that by eliminating previously high fixed processing and banking costs associated with program management, the Company can focus on improving margins by delivering organic revenues through new marketing partnerships and alliances.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $463,196 and $396,382 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $66,814 or 17%. The key components of operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 are salaries and wages ($203,519) professional fees ($12,766), general and administrative ($131,711) and stock based compensation ($115,200).

Salaries and wages expense were $203,519 and $150,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing a decrease of $53,519 or 36%. The Company has eight employees who are working largely under accrued wages and non-cash compensation until such a time certain milestones are achieved or the Company has the funds to pay cash compensation or until the Company and employees mutually agree to new compensation terms.

General and administrative expenses were $131,711 and $125,382 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $6,329 or 5%. General and administrative expenses increased as the Company positions itself for growth.

Net loss

We incurred net losses of $478,625 and $419,468 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase in net loss of $59,157 or 13%. As we continue our general business operations, organic growth in conjunction with strategic alliances and a potential reverse acquisition or merger opportunity, we expect to improve on net losses when 2014 is compared to 2013.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013

During the first six months of 2013 we were focused on the technical infrastructure and executing distribution, marketing and strategic agreements. Delays in delivering marketing and services coupled with delayed vendor payments caused us to miss the opportunity to generate any material revenues during the second quarter. As a result the Company had nominal revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations was $12,064 and $1,652 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $10,412 or effectively 630%. As previously discussed, we revised the business strategy to focus on restarting operations and take the company into financial services marketing and move away from direct program management.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales was $3,828 and $722 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The increase was $3,106 or 430% and incudes some nominal operating cost associated with the commencement of programs and operations.

The resulting gross profit (loss) was $8,236 and $930 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Management expects gross profit margin to remain unpredictable and volatile as the new operations begin. Fluctuations can be anticipated due to uncertainties in accessing markets coupled with higher product costs mixed with the volatility of entering markets where products have been commoditized. Management believes that by eliminating previously high fixed processing and banking costs associated with program management, the Company can focus on improving margins by delivering organic revenues through new marketing partnerships and alliances.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $1,036,080 and $926,309 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $109,771 or 12%. The key components of operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are salaries and wages ($386,979) professional fees ($36,814), general and administrative ($348,287) and stock based compensation ($264,000).

Table of Contents

Salaries and wages expense were $386,979 and $322,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $64,479 or 20%. The Company has eight employees whom are working largely under accrued wages and non-cash compensation until such a time certain milestones are achieved or the Company has the funds to pay cash compensation or until the Company and employees mutually agree to new compensation terms.

General and administrative expenses were $348,287 and $382,809 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing a decrease of $34,522 or 9%. General and administrative expenses decreased slightly as the Company positions itself for growth.

Net loss

We incurred net losses of $1,093,487 and $1,073,833 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase in net loss of $19,654 or 2%. As we continue our general business operations, organic growth in conjunction with strategic alliances and a potential reverse acquisition or merger opportunity, we expect to improve on net losses when 2014 is compared to 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2013, cash totaled $507 as compared with $473 at December 31, 2012, resulting in an increase of $34 in cash and cash equivalents. Working capital deficit was ($3,767,085) at September 30, 2013, as compared with working capital deficit of ($3,189,949) at December 31, 2012. This decrease in working capital was a result of using new funds and stock to fund operations and related expenses.

The Company is currently being funded through a mix of equity investments and convertible note instruments as well as personal loans from its President/CEO to supply working capital for operations. The Company has a substantial backlog of liabilities and will need to negotiate and reduce liabilities in order to remain on a viable business path. If vendors, agents, suppliers and third parties are unwilling to agree to terms more favorable to the Company, there is likelihood that the liabilities could materially and adversely affect day to day operations. The funds invested and committed are primarily focused on driving business growth and not specifically earmarked to extinguish large tranches of debt or the backlog of liabilities. In event that the Company is unable to mitigate the affects of the liabilities, the Company may seek any and all necessary protections afforded under various state and federal laws. The Company plans to continue to collect equity investments and debt instruments for the remainder of 2013 in order to finance continued operations and to finance potential merger and/or acquisition investments. In an event where the Company faces immediate insolvency, the Company may pursue the sale of its intellectual property, which may or may not have marketable value.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements.
