LOUISIANA FOOD COMPANY
(A Development Stage Company)
|
|
|
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
|
|
June 30, 2011
(unaudited)
|
|
Louisiana Food Company (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August
17, 2010 (“Inception”). The Company’s focus is on the development and commercial exploitation
of food-related business opportunities in the State of Louisiana. To date, the Company has
developed a line of specialty packaged dry products, a line of specialty pasta sauces and a line of
specialty coffee products, and sells these specialty food product lines to distributors, retailers and
over the Internet. Because each of the Company’s products is produced locally in Louisiana, the
Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry has granted the Company a license to affix the
Department’s “Certified” logos on the Company’s products. The Company’s leased headquarters
and kitchen facilities are located within a food technology incubator established by the River
Parish Community Development Corporation which offers the Company extremely economical
access to FDA-approved commercial kitchen facilities.
|
Liquidity and Management Plans
|
At June 30, 2011, the Company had a cash balance of $479, a working capital deficit of $6,354
and an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $100,004. Management has taken
several actions to ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash for its working capital needs
through September 30, 2011, including minimization of discretionary expenditures, minimization,
to the extent possible, of liabilities, commitment to a minimal office lease of $200 per month for
one year, and use of health code compliant kitchen facilities on an hourly basis to handle its sales
orders on an as needed basis. As discussed in Note 8, the Company has borrowed approximately
$15,000 from certain shareholders, in order to pay for certain corporate and operating expenses.
The Company is seeking additional equity funds to support operations through private
transactions. Management believes that these actions will enable the Company to meet its
working capital needs through September 30, 2011.
|
The Company has incurred losses totaling $100,004 from its Inception through June 30, 2011, and
a working capital deficit at June 30, 2011. Because of these conditions, the Company will require
additional working capital to continue operations and develop its business. The Company intends
to raise additional working capital through a direct public offering.
|
There are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve a level of revenues adequate to
generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain additional financing to support the
Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from a direct public
offering are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance
can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable
to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the Company may not continue its
operations or execute its business plan.
|
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
|
NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared
by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. In
management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for interim
periods have been reflected in the interim financial statements. The results of operations for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. All adjustments to the
financial statements are of a normal recurring nature.
|
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
Such disclosures are those that would substantially duplicate information contained in the most
recent audited financial statements of the Company, such as significant accounting policies and
stock options. Management presumes that users of the interim statements have read or have access
to the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-169924).
|
The Company derives its revenue from sales of its food and coffee products. Revenue is
recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred and
services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable and collectability is reasonable
assured. Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates and returns.
|
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful
accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of
probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines
the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic
conditions. Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Bad debt
expense is included in general and administrative expenses. To date, the Company has not
charged off any balances. Of the Company’s $9,230 in accounts receivable at June 30, 2011,
$8,280 of such amount is of an “aged” nature and is due from a single customer. The Company
expects that it will receive payment of this entire account receivable during fiscal year 2011, but
is unable to predict the timing of such payment.
|
The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure to its customers.
|
NOTE 3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
|
The Company was formed pursuant to a pre-incorporation agreement. The Company’s President
was a party to this agreement and was, upon formation of the Company and in accordance with
the pre-incorporation agreement, issued 13,000,000 shares of Company common stock and
2,000,000 warrants to purchase a like number of shares at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.
The Company received items of personal and intellectual property in exchange for its shares of
common stock. The Company’s Board of Directors determined that the aggregate value of the
items of property was $13,000, of which $2,517 has been recorded as inventory and $10,483 has
been recorded as an intangible asset. The value of the warrants of $1,638 has been included in
compensation expense, during the period from Inception to June 30, 2011.
|
The Company’s legal counsel was also a party to the pre-incorporation agreement and is
considered a promoter of the Company. Upon formation of the Company and in accordance with
the pre-incorporation agreement, the Company’s legal counsel was issued 5,000,000 shares of
Company common stock and 2,000,000 warrants to purchase a like number of shares at an
exercise price of $0.10 per share, in payment of $10,000 in legal services. The value of the
warrants of $1,638 has been included in professional fees, during the period from Inception to
June 30, 2011.
|
At June 30, 2011, and September 30, 2010, deposits, comprised entirely of a utility security
deposit, were $603.
|
NOTE 5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
|
The Company’s intangible assets include trademarks, brand names and recipes of its food and
coffee products acquired in exchange for the issuance of common stock. The Company’s
intangible assets are not amortized because they have indefinite lives.
|
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
|
Long-lived assets are continually monitored and are reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any such asset may not be
recoverable. The determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted cash
flows expected to result from the use of an asset and its eventual disposition. The estimate of
undiscounted cash flows is based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected
future operating performance, growth rates and other factors. The Company’s estimates of
undiscounted cash flows may differ from actual cash flows due to, among other things,
technological changes, economic conditions, changes to its business model or changes in its
operating performance. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value
of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized, measured as the amount by which the carrying
value exceeds the fair value of the asset. During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the
Company did not record an impairment of the Company’s long-lived assets.
|
Common Stock Issued for Property
|
During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company did not issue shares of its common
stock for property. During the period from Inception through September 30, 2010, the Company
issued 13,000,000 shares of its common stock for items of personal and intangible property.
Specifically, the Company received goods and recipes useful in its specialty food business. The
Company’s Board of Directors determined that the aggregate value of the items of property was
$13,000, of which $2,517 was determined to be inventory and $10,483 was determined to be
recipes and brand names.
|
Common Stock Issued for Services
|
During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company did not issue shares of its common
stock for services. During the period from Inception through September 30, 2010, the Company
issued a total of 7,000,000 shares of its common stock for services to third-party consultants for
services, resulting in an expense of $20,000 included in professional and legal expenses and
consulting fees in the accompanying statement of operations. The value of the transactions was
determined based on value of shares of common stock issued as determined by the board of
directors. As there are no performance commitments or penalties for non-performance, the
Company recorded the expense at the date of issuance.
|
Common Stock Issued for Cash
|
In October 2010, the Company completed a private offering of its common stock. In this private
offering, the Company sold 180,000 shares of its common stock for cash in the aggregate amount
of $3,600, or $0.02 per share.
|
In December 2010, the Company issued 1,200,000 shares of its common stock for cash in the total
amount of $12,000.
|
During the period from Inception through September 30, 2010, the Company issued a total of
5,200,000 shares of its common stock for cash in the total amount of $52,000.
|
At September 30, 2010, the Company had not received a total of $15,000 in payment of 1,500,000
shares of common stock sold. During October 2010, the Company received all $15,000 in cash
associated with such subscription receivable.
|
NOTE 7. WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
|
Outstanding Stock Warrants
|
In December 2010, the Company issued 240,000 stock warrants to a purchaser of common stock.
The warrants allow the warrant holder to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at a price of
$0.10 per share. The two-year warrants expire in December 2012.
|
In August and September 2010, the Company issued warrants to two related-parties. The
President, Mr. David Loflin, was issued 2,000,000 warrants for services rendered in establishing
the Company. The law firm of Newlan & Newlan, Counsel to the Company, was issued
2,000,000 warrants for professional services rendered for organizing the Company. Additionally,
1,100,000 warrants were issued to purchasers of common shares during the period from Inception
(August 17, 2010) through September 30, 2010. The warrants allow the warrant holders to
purchase, in aggregate, 5,100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.10 per share. The two-year warrants expire during August 2012 and September 2012. All warrants are fully vested and
exercisable at June 30, 2011.
|
A summary of the status and changes of the warrants issued during the period from September 30,
2010, through June 30, 2011, are as follows:

|
At June 30, 2011, vested warrants of 5,340,000 had an aggregate intrinsic value of $-0-.
|
The fair value of each of the Company’s stock warrants is estimated on the date of grant using a
Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected
volatility is based on an average of historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The
risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock warrant award is based
on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond on the date the award is granted with a
maturity equal to the expected term of the award. The Company uses historical data to estimate
forfeitures within its valuation model.
|
The significant weighted average assumptions relating to the valuation of the Company’s options
for the period ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
|
|
Risk-free interest rate (2 YR U.S. Treasury)
|
0.37% to 0.58%
|
|
NOTE 8. LOANS FROM SHAREHOLDERS
|
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company obtained unsecured loans from two

statements.
General
We are a development-stage company incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 17,
2010. We are in the business of developing and exploiting food-related business opportunities in
the State of Louisiana. To date, we have developed a line of specialty packaged dry food products,
a line of specialty sauces and a line of specialty coffee products. We will sell these specialty food
product lines to distributors, directly to retailers and directly to consumers over the Internet.
Overview
While we are a business in the early-stage of development, we have begun to derive revenues
from our operations, through sales to retail grocery stores and through our online store. Our current
focus is on (1) sales to established food distributors, (2) direct sales to retail grocery stores, (3)
developing our Charter Independent Distributor Program and (4) sales through our web site,
www.lafoodco.com.
In order to accelerate the growth of our business, we will need to obtain additional capital
from our Direct Public Offering or from another source or sources. We intend to apply additional
capital, as and if obtained, to the expansion of our Charter Independent Distributor Program, the
pursuit of nation retail accounts and to the expansion of sales through our web site, primarily through
Internet advertising strategies.
Our management believes there to be a multitude of small, locally-owned food businesses
throughout Louisiana, the products of which are worthy of national distribution. Our management
further believes that we have the opportunity to bring to these locally produced and sold Louisiana-centric specialty food products to the national market, by way of distribution agreements, private
label arrangements or acquisition.
As part of our business strategy, after we have better established the sales and distribution
channels of our current lines of specialty food products, we intend to consider acquisitions of
existing food-related businesses, as such acquisition opportunities become available to us. There
is no current arrangement or understanding between our company and any other company or person
with regard to a merger or acquisition transaction.
Direct Public Offering
In January 2011, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-169924) was declared effective. Pursuant to such Registration Statement, the Company originally
registered for sale 1,000,000 shares of its common stock at an offering price of $0.80 per share. In
March 2011, the Company withdrew such shares from registration, without having sold any of such
shares.
Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance
Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:
•
our ability to maintain, on commercially reasonable terms, the supply of our
packaged dry products and our coffee products;
•
our ability to expand the channels of distribution for our specialty food
products;
•
our ability to attract new and repeat customers to our online store; and
•
our ability to contain our costs of goods sold and maintain our law overheard.
Based on our current business plan, we expect to incur operating losses for the final quarter
of Fiscal 2011 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2012. However, because our specialty food products
are new, we cannot predict the levels of our sales during the next six months.
To date, we have sold our products to only a small number of customers. We do not have
a formal relationship with any of our customers and they may, in their sole discretion and without
penalty, cease purchasing our specialty food products. Our only other channel of distribution is
through our website, which has generated only a small level of sales revenues.
We have a single source for our packaged dry products and a single source for our coffee
products. Each of these suppliers is located within 60 miles of our production, packaging and
distribution location in Norco, Louisiana. We have not entered into any formal supply agreements
with these suppliers. We are required to pay in full for inventory purchased from these suppliers,
upon our receipt of their shipments. If the prices charged by these suppliers increase and we are not
able to pass on the increased prices to our customers, then our margins would be reduced, which
would, in turn, adversely affect our future profitability.
Results of Operations
For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2011
. During the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2011
(the “Current Period”), we generated $10,092 in revenues from sales of our specialty food products.
Sales during the three months ended June 30, 2011, were $863, compared to sales of $8,561,
including sales of $8,280 to a single customer, for the prior three months ended March 31, 2011. We
expect that our revenues will increase during each of the next three fiscal quarters. However, we
cannot predict the exact levels of such expected increases.
For the Current Period, we incurred a net loss of $64,643. Our operations for the three
months ended June 30, 2011, were negatively impacted by a lack of capital caused by (1) unexpected
delays in our obtaining a trading symbol for our common stock and (2) our withdrawal from
registration of the shares of our common stock that we intended to sell in a Direct Public Offering
– this withdrawal from registration was effected, following our advice from FINRA that a trading
symbol would not be assigned to our common stock for so long as we maintained the registration
of our Direct Public Offering and our selling shareholder offering. This determination was made by
our board of directors, having determined such course of action to be in the best interests of our
company and our shareholders.
While we did not issue shares of our common stock in payment of services during the
Current Period, it is possible that, if we lack the cash needed to obtain necessary services, we would
issue shares of common stock in payment thereof. By issuing common stock in payment of these
necessary services, we would be able to better preserve our then-available cash.
Plan of Operations
Our Plan of Operations, which is detailed in the following paragraphs, generally involves the
development of distribution channels for our specialty food products, as well as our locating food-related business opportunities in the State of Louisiana.
We have developed the following specialty food products:
Packaged Dry Products
: Our Jammin’ Jambalaya, Acadiana Dirty Rice, Bayou Moon
Jamasta, Breaux Bridge Etouffee, Fais do-do Gumbo and Bon Temps Lou’siana Fry are
currently available to purchasers. We expect that our Red Stick Red Beans, Elysian Fields
Black-Eyed Peas and Pirogue Rice will be available during the fourth quarter of 2011.
Sauce Products
: We expect that our The Quarter’s Pasta Sauce and The Quarter’s Creole
Sauce will be available to purchasers during the fourth quarter of 2011.
Coffee Products
: Our Voodoo Roast Dark, Voodoo Roast Medium, Voodoo Roast Dark
(Decaf) and Voodoo Roast Chicory Blend products are currently available to purchasers, and
our Voodoo Roast Southern Pecan Seasonal Blend is scheduled to be available to purchasers
near the end of September 2011.
A portion of funds that we obtain in the future will be applied to the expansion of our
distribution channels. Specifically, we intend to expend funds in advertising for participants in our
Charter Independent Distributor Program. Our advertising will be done in local newspapers around
the United States and over the Internet via one or more of the existing Internet advertising systems,
such as Google AdSense®. Additionally, we intend to use Internet advertising to entice retail
consumers to purchase our specialty food products directly from our online store that is a part of our
web site, www.lafoodco.com.
As we increase our sales, we will apply available funds to the expansion of our food
manufacturing capabilities. We currently produce our wet products at a certified commercial kitchen
housed in the same building as our corporate headquarters and we expect that this kitchen will be
adequate for at least the next six months.
Our management believes there to be a multitude of small, locally-owned food businesses
throughout Louisiana, the products of which are worthy of national distribution. Our management
further believes that we have the opportunity to bring to these locally produced and sold Louisiana-centric specialty food products to the national market, by way of distribution agreements, private
label arrangements or acquisition.
While our level of future funding will determine the potential rate of growth for our business,
our Plan of Operations will be the same. Without additional funding, we will expand our operations
only to the extent that our operations generate adequate funds. There is, of course, no assurance that
our operations will be successful, in this regard. With additional funding, we believe that we will
be able to increase sales of our products through our aggressive advertising strategy. As with any
start-up company that offers unproven products, there is no assurance that our company will be
successful with any level of additional funding.
Liquidity
As at June 30, 2011
.
Working Capital
. At June 30, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $6,354 and a cash
balance of $479. Since our inception, we have raised a total of $82,550 from private sales of our
common stock. Our cash position is expected to improve as we collect our accounts receivable
during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2011. In particular, we expect to collect our $8,280 account
receivable from a single customer in September 2011, although, as of the date of this report, we had
not collected any portion of such account receivable. Currently, we are seeking additional funding
from private sources.
Cash Flows
. For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2011, we used $66,981 in our operating
activities. Our investing activities used $793 in cash. Our financing activities provided $45,900 in
cash, which we received from private sales of our common stock ($30,600) and loans from
shareholders ($15,300).
Contractual Obligations
To date, we have not entered into any significant long-term obligations that require us to
make monthly cash payments. Our longest-lived obligation is the lease agreement for our corporate
headquarters, which expires in September 2011. Our monthly obligation under this lease is $200.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them,
are disclosed in the notes to our financial statements included herein. We have consistently applied
these policies in all material respects. We do not believe that our operations to date have involved
uncertainty of accounting treatment, subjective judgment or estimates, to any significant degree.
Uncertainties and Trends
Our operations and revenues are dependent, now and in the future, upon the following
factors:
•
whether we successfully commercialize our new specialty food products;
•
whether we compete effectively in the severely competitive food industry;
and
•
whether the continuing economic recession in the United States will
adversely affect our ability to attract customers to our specialty food products.
There is no assurance that our company will be able to accomplish our objectives. Our
failure to do so would likely cause purchasers of our common stock to lose their entire investments
in our company.
Inflation
Inflation can be expected to have an impact on our operating costs. A prolonged period of
inflation could cause interest rates, wages and other costs to increase which would adversely affect
our results of operations. In the current economic and political climate, no predictions can be made
with respect to the future effects of inflation on or business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that would have any current or future
effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of
operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Capital Expenditures
During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, we made minimal capital expenditures. Should
we obtain at least $30,000 in additional funding, we expect to purchase selected items of equipment
for use in the production of our specialty food products, including product packaging equipment.
However, we cannot predict the exact amount of these potential capital expenditures.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Acting Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, have concluded that, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by
this report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide
reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and such
information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and the Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding
disclosures.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended
June 30, 2011, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
