SWIFT START CORP. - 10-Q - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations(Edgar Glimpses Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) The following is management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Swift Start Corp. ("Swift Start Corp.", the "Company", "we", and "our") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The following information should be read in conjunction with the interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2014 and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Report"). Overview We were incorporated on March 20, 2013 under the laws of the state of Delaware. We plan to develop a website that will offer comprehensive online computer programming courses for anyone with any level of computer programming knowledge, from beginners to experts. We will offer courses for all major computer programming languages, such as: C#, .NET, C++, C, Objective C, Java, JavaScript, HTML, ASP, XML, JQuery, PHP, Flash, Python, SQL, PERL, VB.NET, AJAX, CSS and all Microsoft Office Products. Our video courses will be developed and taught by seasoned teachers with extensive experience in the computer programming fields. We plan on initially hiring three teachers to teach the computer programming courses. We plan to generate revenue by charging our clients $99.00 per month for access to our website and its resources. Additional revenue will be earned by charging a flat fee of $299.99 for special courses on android and iphone app development. Since inception, our operations are mostly limited to forming the Company and raising capital resource. We have only begun to generate revenue. We require additional capital to implement our business and fund our operations. The Company's fiscal year end is December 31. The Company's principal executive office and mailing address is 248 Hewes Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211. Our telephone number is 718-521-6949. The company's website is www.swiftstart.net. Plan of Operations We have commenced limited operations and our proposed business plan is not yet fully operational. Currently, we have three clients and are working on cultivating more and growing the business. Swift Start Corp. is in the business of providing online courses for computer programming. In November 2013, we began providing online private lessons before the permanent website is completed. This allowed us to begin to establish a customer base immediately. We currently have a functioning website, www.swiftstart.net, and will continue to develop it over the next four to six months. In the next twelve months, we hope to have created enough revenue to start a major ad campaign to promote our website and service. To date, our development efforts have been focused primarily on the development and marketing of our business model. In addition, we have limited operating history for investors to evaluate the potential of our business development. As such, we have not built our customer base or our brand name. In addition, our sources of cash are not adequate for the next 12 months of operations. If we are unable to raise additional cash, we will either have to suspend or cease our expansion plans entirely. Limited Operating History We have generated no independent financial history and have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods. Results of Operations We had a net loss of $8,469 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, we generated revenues of $891. 11 During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we experienced general and administrative expenses of $9,360. These expenses consist of professional fees, computer and internet expenses and other miscellaneous items. We had a net loss of $28,784 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we generated revenues of $1,782. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we experienced general and administrative expenses of $30,566. These expenses consist of professional fees, computer and internet expenses and other miscellaneous items. Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We have been funding our operations through the sale of our common stock. Our primary uses of cash have been for fees paid to third parties for the development of our products. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business and establishing our brand. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term: · An increase in working capital requirements to finance additional product development, · Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows, · Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing and new brands as the company expands within existing markets or enters new markets, · The cost of being a public company, and · Capital expenditures to add additional technology. Our net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. At June 30, 2014, we had a cash balance of $100 and working capital deficit of $25,249. Since inception, we have raised $34,700. We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. We may be required to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations, without further financing, for up to 12 months. We presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We may not have sufficient working capital to fund the expansion of our operations and to provide working capital necessary for our ongoing operations and obligations. We will need to raise significant additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company. We do not anticipate we will be profitable in 2014. Therefore our future operations will be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly 12 Going Concern Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. As of June 30, 2014, we have not generated material revenues. We expect to finance our operations primarily through our existing cash, our operations and any future financing. However, there exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we will be required to obtain additional capital in the future to continue our operations and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such capital, through equity or debt financing, or any combination thereof, or on satisfactory terms or at all. Additionally, no assurance can be given that any such financing, if obtained, will be adequate to meet our capital needs. If adequate capital cannot be obtained on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, our operations would be materially negatively impacted. Therefore, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to complete additional offerings is dependent on the state of the debt and/or equity markets at the time of any proposed offering, and such market's reception of the Company and the offering terms. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to an investment in our securities. Critical Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a December 31 fiscal year end. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement: 13 Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 - Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management's estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As of June 30, 2014, the carrying value of loans that are required to be measured at fair value, approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with ASC No. 605-10-S99, (SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition"), when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Deferred revenues primarily include unearned amounts received from customers but not recognized as revenues. Income Taxes A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. When required, the Company records a liability for unrecognized tax positions, defined as the aggregate tax effect of differences between positions taken on tax returns and the benefits recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions are measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. No tax benefits are recognized for positions that do not meet this threshold. The Company has no uncertain tax positions that require the Company to record a liability. The federal income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after they are filed. The Company recognizes penalties and interest associated with tax matters as part of the income tax provision and includes accrued interest and penalties with the related tax liability in the balance sheet. The Company had no accrued penalties and interest as of June 30, 2014. Loss per Share The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing our net income available to common shareholders by the number of common shares during the year. The diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing our net income loss available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted as of the first of the year for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. The Company has not issued any potentially dilutive debt or equity securities. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 14 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Recent accounting pronouncements other than below issued by the FASB (including its EITF), the AICPA and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company's present or future financial statements. In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, "Development Stage Entities (Topic 915) Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation". This ASU does the following among other things: a) eliminates the requirement to present inception-to-date information on the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholders' equity, b) eliminates the need to label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, c) eliminates the need to disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and d) amends FASB ASC 275, Risks and Uncertainties, to clarify that information on risks and uncertainties for entities that have not commenced planned principal operations is required. The amendments in ASU No. 2014-10 related to the elimination of Topic 915 disclosures and the additional disclosure for Topic 275 are effective for public companies for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has evaluated this ASU and determined that it will early adopt beginning with the quarterly period ended June 30, 2014. |
