BUSINESS.VN, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
January 31, 2009
1. Organization
Business.vn, Inc. (the "Company") was originally formed on September 15, 1995 as Interactive Processing, Inc., a Nevada corporation, to market high-tech consumer electronics through television home-shopping networks, retail stores, catalog companies and their website remotecontrols.com. In March 1999, the Company changed its name to WorldTradeShow.com, Inc. During the same month, the Company acquired intellectual property rights to a database and business plan and significantly changed its business plan to develop tradeshow software and market both physical and virtual tradeshow space through the Company's website.
The Company has never commenced significant operations and therefore, is classified as a development stage enterprise.
The financial statements included in this Report have been prepared on a retroactive basis based upon on subsequent information available as of September 12, 2016. The Company has been dormant since October 2008 and as of May 5, 2016 is under the control of a Receiver in Nevada’s Eighth Judicial District in #A14-709484-P. As a result all asset accounts have been written down to zero for accounting purposes.

The Receiver has prepared this Report for the Company; and the financial statements included within this Report are for the purposes of complying with a deficiency notice from FINRA regarding a proposed corporate action for the Issuer. The Receiver believes the request by FINRA to prepare documents such as these that date beyond the statute of limitations for any public or private cause of action.
Since the Company is currently, in receivership and has no verifiable assets, all assets have been written down to zero.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," as amended by SAB 101A and 101B and as revised by SAB 104, "Revenue Recognition". Accordingly, we recognize revenue when: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the fee charged for services rendered and products delivered and the collectibility of those fees. Should changes in conditions cause management to determine these criteria are not met for certain future transactions, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be adversely affected.
The Company generates revenues from commissions earned on net sales from its internet-based reservations. Internet revenues consist primarily of commissions, which are recorded at net in accordance with EITF 99-19. This revenue is recognized when customers present records of the room reservations made on the Company's internet based software. The Company also has to take into consideration EITF01-09 in which the company's revenues get reduced by the consideration it has paid to its vendor, as the consideration paid to the vendor exceeds the benefit received.
Sales Returns Allowances and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales returns and other allowances in any accounting period. Management must make estimates of potential future order disputes related to current period product revenue. Allowances for estimated product returns are provided at the time of sale. We evaluate the adequacy of allowances for returns primarily based upon our evaluation of historical and expected sales experience and by channel of distribution. The judgments and estimates of management may have a material effect on the amount and timing of our revenue for any given period.
Similarly, management must make estimates of the uncollectibility of accounts receivable. Management specifically analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 107,
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments as of January 31, 2009 approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Such instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The fair value of related party payables is not determinable.
Equipment
Equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using a declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable property, which range from 3 to 5 years. Management evaluates useful lives regularly in order to determine recoverability taking into consideration current technological conditions. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; additions and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or disposal of any item of equipment, the cost is and related accumulated depreciation of the disposed assets is removed, and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations.
Long-lived Assets
The Company records impairments to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances have made recovery of the asset's carrying value unlikely. In that case, if the sum of the expected future cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes
, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Issuance of Stock for Services
SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
, encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has elected to continue to account for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees
, and related interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123; accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. For stock options issued to non-employees, the issuance of stock options is accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements for stock options granted to non-employees in the period in which the consideration is obtained from the non-employee.
Compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements for issuances of common shares to employees and non-employees that have rendered services to the Company. Compensation expense is recognized based on the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the common stock, whichever is more readily determinable.
Segment Information
SFAS No. 131,
Segment Information
, amends the requirements for companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. Operating segments, as defined in SFAS No. 131, are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by a Company in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company evaluated SFAS No. 131 and determined that the Company intends to operate two operating segments, trade show and entertainment.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128,
Earnings Per Share
for the period presented. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilative convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby we used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.
The Company has potentially dilutive securities in the form of outstanding stock options issued to three members of the Board of Directors. There are no other potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
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 certain 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 periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates made by management are, among others, realizability of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and stock option valuation. Management reviews its estimates on a quarterly basis and, where necessary, makes adjustments prospectively.

All intangible assets have been written off as of January 31, 2009.
4. Provision for income taxes
As of April 30, 2008, the Company has a federal net operating loss carry forwards of $8,277,168 that can be utilized to reduce future taxable income. The net operating loss carry forward will expire through 2023 if not utilized. Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carry forward may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards before utilization. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset because of uncertainty regarding realizability.
5. Related Party Transactions
The Company has received advances and accrued consulting fees since inception. The amount owed at January 31, 2009 is $3,981,423. The amount includes interest accruing at rates between 8 and 12%.

8. Stock Issuances
During the six months ended October 31, 2008 the Company issued 2,805,000 shares of stock, 20,000 shares for settlement of a debt of $6,000, 485,000 shares of stock for services valued at market at $97,000. The company also offered under a registration statement for foreign investors or Regulation S, 2,300,000 shares of stock which has resulted in cash of $95,147.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND RISK FACTORS
Certain statements in this quarterly report constitute "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements deal with our current plans, objectives, projections, expectations, assumptions, strategies, and future events. Words such as "may," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "will," "should," "could," and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Similarly, statements that describe our plans, our strengths and weaknesses and other information that is not historical information also are forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements, expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other thing, impact the ability of the Company to implement its business strategy.
In addition to the other information contained in this report, the following risk factors, among others, that make investment in shares of the Company's common stock speculative and risky should be carefully considered.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
.
The success of the Company is largely dependent upon the continued contributions of its key management personnel. The success of the Company also depends upon its ability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel. The process of locating personnel with the combination of skills and attributes required to implement our strategies is very competitive and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel, particularly in view of our poor financial position. The loss of the services of our key management personnel or the inability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel could limit or disrupt our future business operations.
NO DIVIDENDS EXPECTED
.
We have not paid any cash or other dividends on our common shares since inception and we do not expect to pay any dividends in the future. We expect to use any earnings in our operations.
INTENSE COMPETITION IN THE HEALTH INDUSTRIES
.
There is competition among providers, both individuals and entities, of various internet technologies. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial and marketing resources than the Company, stronger name recognition, brand loyalty and long-standing relationships with our target customers. Our future success is dependent upon our ability to compete and our failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.
LIMITED OR SPORADIC MARKET QUOTATIONS; POSSIBLE ILLIQUIDITY; PENNY STOCK RESTRICTIONS
.
Shares of our common stock are quoted and traded from time to time on the OTC Bulletin Board and in the so-called "Pink Sheets," but the quotations and trading activity are limited and sporadic. As a result, our shareholders may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations concerning the market price of their shares. Our shareholders also may experience more difficulty in attempting to sell their shares than if the shares were listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market. Also, our common shares are classified as a "penny stock" because they are not traded on a national stock exchange or on the NASDAQ Stock Market and the market price is less than $5 per share. Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as an "established customer" or an "accredited investor." Among other things, a broker-dealer must make a determination that investments in penny stocks are suitable for the customer and must make special disclosures to the customer concerning the risks of penny stocks. Application of the Penny Stock Rules to our common shares could adversely affect the market liquidity of the shares, which in turn may adversely affect the ability of shareholders to sell their share.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITIVE DISCLOURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
We Have Historically Lost Money and Losses May Continue in the Future
We have historically lost money. The loss for the fiscal year April 30, 2008 was $1,177,376 and is $2,797,907 for the nine month period ended January 31, 2009. Based on the Company’s status as described throughout this Report, we current have no liquidity.
We Will Need to Raise Additional Capital to Finance Operations
Our operations have relied almost entirely on external financing to fund our operations. Such financing has historically come from a combination of borrowings and from the sale of common stock and assets to third parties. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our anticipated operating expenses and future expansion. Among other things, external financing will be required to cover our operating costs. We cannot assure you that financing whether from external sources or related parties will be available if needed or on favorable terms. The sale of our common stock to raise capital may cause dilution to our existing shareholders. Our inability to obtain adequate financing will result in the need to curtail business operations. Any of these events would be materially harmful to our business and may result in a lower stock price.
There is Substantial Doubt About Our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern Due to Recurring Losses and Working Capital Shortages, Which Means that We May Not Be Able to Continue Operations Unless We Obtain Additional Funding
The report of our independent accountants on our April 30, 2008 financial statements include an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses and working capital shortages. Our ability to continue as a going concern will be determined by our ability to obtain additional funding. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Our Common Stock May Be Affected By Limited Trading Volume and May Fluctuate Significantly
There has been a limited public market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will develop. As a result, this could adversely affect our shareholders' ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations that could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. Substantial fluctuations in our stock price could significantly reduce the price of our stock.
There is no Assurance of Continued Public Trading Market and Being a Low Priced Security may affect the Market Value of Our Stock
To date, there has been only a limited public market for our common stock. Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCBB. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our stock. Our stock is subject to the low-priced security or so called "penny stock" rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities. The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, according to recent regulations adopted by the SEC, any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions that we no longer meet). For example, brokers/dealers selling such securities must, prior to effecting the transaction, provide their customers with a document that discloses the risks of investing in such securities. Included in this document are the following:
|
·
|
the bid and offer price quotes in and for the "penny stock," and the number of shares to which the quoted prices apply,
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
the brokerage firm's compensation for the trade, and
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
the compensation received by the brokerage firm's sales person for the trade.
|
|
|
|
In addition, the brokerage firm must send the investor:
|
·
|
a monthly account statement that gives an estimate of the value of each "penny stock" in the investor's account, and
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
a written statement of the investor's financial situation and investment goals.
|
If the person purchasing the securities is someone other than an accredited investor or an established customer of the broker/dealer, the broker/dealer must also approve the potential customer's account by obtaining information concerning the customer's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. The broker/dealer must also make a determination whether the transaction is suitable for the customer and whether the customer has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be reasonably expected to be capable of evaluating the risk of transactions in such securities. Accordingly, the Commission's rules may limit the number of potential purchasers of the shares of our common stock.
Resale restrictions on transferring "penny stocks" are sometimes imposed by some states, which may make transaction in our stock more difficult and may reduce the value of the investment. Various state securities laws pose restrictions on transferring "penny stocks" and as a result, investors in our common stock may have the ability to sell their shares of our common stock impaired.
There can be no assurance we will have market makers in our stock. If the number of market makers in our stock should decline, the liquidity of our common stock could be impaired, not only in the number of shares of common stock which could be bought and sold, but also through possible delays in the timing of transactions, and lower prices for the common stock than might otherwise prevail. Furthermore, the lack of market makers could result in persons being unable to buy or sell shares of the common stock on any secondary market.
Nevada Law and Our Charter May Inhibit a Takeover of Our Company That Stockholders May Consider Favorable
Provisions of Nevada law, such as its business combination statute, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company. As a result, these provisions could limit the price some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.
