General
Our Business – General
We were incorporated on April 17, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. We have commenced limited operations, and have generated revenue of $7,569 to date. We are still a development stage corporation. On January 30, 2007, we approved a nine (9) for one (1) forward stock split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation by the filing of a Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State wherein it stated that it would issue nine shares for every one share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the forward stock split. The change in the Articles of Incorporation was effected with the Nevada Secretary of State on March 1, 2007. As a result, the authorized capital of our company increased from 25,000,000 to 225,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001.
Effective March 15, 2010, the Company changed its name from Tortuga Mexican Imports Inc. to Jetblack Corp., by way of a merger with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Jetblack Corp., which was formed solely for the change of name.
Effective March 15, 2010, the Company effected a six (6) for one (1) new forward stock split of the Company’s authorized and issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, the Company’s authorized capital increased from 225,000,000 to 1,350,000,000 shares, and outstanding shares increased from 25,435,450 shares of common stock to 152,612,700 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001. The stock split is presented retroactively in these financial statements.
On May 4, 2011, Nigel Farnsworth returned 86,327,600 of his common shares to treasury. As of January 17, 2013, there are 67,352,000
common shares of the Company issued and outstanding.
Until March 15, 2010
we had launched our e-commerce site on the Internet for the purpose of engaging in the business of selling jewelry and crafts online. Our website was located at
www.shoptortuga.com
. Our initial website was located at
www.tortuga-imports.com
.
After reviewing the competitive market place of jewelry and giving consideration to the influx of much cheaper jewelry goods from areas such as China and Indonesia, management decided it was in the best interest of the Company to change business focus. Management has decided to commence work on developing an online
reservation system to access numerous private jet aircraft, airports worldwide and a network of pre-approved, safety-checked operators. Management believes a strong market opportunity exists to develop such a business. Our name was changed to Jetblack Corp. to better reflect this change of business focus.
Properties
Our office is located at 20 Broadwick Street, West End, London, UK. We do not have other properties.
History
From 1995 to 1997, Ms. Avila, our former President and director, traveled extensively throughout the country of Mexico. During this time, Ms. Avila came in contact with various producers of fine furniture, jewelry and Mexican crafts. Ms. Avila was impressed by the opportunity she saw to obtain exceptional Mexican furniture, jewelry and crafts and effect its reliable delivery to international buyers. Initially Ms. Avila was traveling throughout Mexico in pursuit of personal purchases. However, Ms. Avila soon realized that there was an opportunity to export these fine products abroad. Ms. Avila cultivated relationships and contacts with various producers throughout Mexico.
On May 3, 2011, Vanessa Avila resigned as President, Secretary and Director of the Company. Effective May 3, 2011, Nigel Farnsworth was elected Director and appointed President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Mr. Farnsworth is a graduate of The School of Business at The University of Exeter in Exeter, United Kingdom and has been involved with numerous business ventures in both the United Kingdom and the United States. From 2005 to present, Mr. Farnsworth has been a principal at Greenshoe Capital LLC.
We remain a development stage enterprise.
Current Business Operations
We have recently changed operations. We intend to develop an online reservation system to access to numerous private jet aircraft, airports worldwide and a network of pre-approved, safety-checked operators. We intend to develop a booking engine, which will provide real-time availability of small jets available for charter in certain areas and select the best option from the inventory of aircraft.
Products
As of November 30, 2012 we did not have a product line. We are currently developing a booking engine, which will provide real-time availability of small jets available for charter in certain areas and select the best option from the inventory of aircraft.
Marketing, Advertising and Promotion
We intend to pursue strategic advertising and marketing campaigns. We intend to implement an aggressive online advertising and marketing campaign to increase awareness of our new name and business plan to acquire new customers through multiple channels, including traditional and online advertising, direct marketing and expansion and strengthening of strategic relationships. Initially, we will concentrate our efforts on the sale of private jet flight reservations on our e-commerce website which we have yet to complete. We will seek to promote its website and attract visitors to it by becoming predominant on major search engines and banner advertisements on highly trafficked web sites that appeal to our target audience. In addition, we will promote our website and our products by conventional advertising and marketing.
Product Research and Development
We anticipate that we will expend approximately $20,000 on research and development over the next 12 months.
Employees
Currently there are no full time or part-time employees of our company. However, our president, Nigel Fransworth, is a consultant of our company. We do not expect an increase in the number of employees over the next 12 month period. If business is successful and we experience rapid growth, our current officers and directors may be required to hire new personnel to improve, implement and administer our operational, management, financial and accounting systems.
Purchase or Sale of Equipment
In addition to purchasing computer and office equipment necessary for operating our business, intend to purchase computer software to develop a booking engine, which will provide real-time availability of small jets available for charter in certain areas and select the best option from the inventory of aircraft. We also intend to purchase a new domain over the next 12 months.

Results of Operations
Three months ended November 30, 2012 and November 30, 2011
For the three months ended November 30, 2012, we generated no revenue and incurred expenditures of $4,801 and posted losses of $4,801. For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we incurred expenditures of $5,524 and posted losses of $5,524. The expenses for both periods included administrative expenses and accounting and auditors’ fees.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal capital resources have been through issuance of common stock and shareholder loans.
At November 30, 2012, we had a working capital of $8,223.
At November 30, 2012, our total current asset was cash of $14,893 and our total current liabilities were $6,670.
We will require additional financing before we generate significant revenues. We intend to develop an online reservation system to access to numerous private jet aircraft, airports worldwide and a network of pre-approved, safety-checked operators. We intend to develop a booking engine, which will provide real-time availability of small jets available for charter in certain areas and select the best option from the inventory of aircraft.
We intend to raise the capital required through sales of our securities in secondary offerings or private placements. We have no agreements in place to do this at this time.
There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional funds required for our continued operations. In such event that we do not raise sufficient additional funds by secondary offering or private placement, we will consider alternative financing options, if any, or be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial statements. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials.
