Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization and History

 

SA Recovery Corp. was incorporated on July 28, 2008 in the State of Oklahoma. Our former parent company, AMS Heath Sciences, Inc., (“AMS”) was originally incorporated on May 22, 1987.  On December 27, 2007, AMS filed a voluntary Petition for Relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, Case no. 07-14678. On July 15, 2008, the Bankruptcy Court issued an Order Confirming the First Amended Plan of Reorganization with an effective date of July 28, 2008.

 

 As part of the reorganization, AMS caused SA Recovery Corp., to be incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary.  On July 28, 2008, AMS completed the reorganization and merger.  The assets and operations of AMS were sold under the Bankruptcy Court Plan.  Under the terms of the reorganization, each issued and outstanding share of AMS Health Science, Inc. was converted into a share of SA Recovery Corp., having the same designations, rights, powers, and preferences, and qualifications, limitations, and restrictions.  The former name “AMS Health Sciences, Inc.” was severed during the Bankruptcy proceedings and is not related to SA Recovery Corp.

 

Nature of Operations

 

SA Recovery Corp. is an environmental equipment company that manufacturers a mobile unit that removes contaminants from sand.  We are a development stage company that has not generated any revenues as of our most recent fiscal year.

 

On July 28, 2008, the Company purchased the Sand Extraction Prototype I  from CGJ Holding, LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company (“CGJ”) for the sum of $15,000. The Sand Extraction Prototype I is an apparatus designed to remove contaminants from sand.

 

The Sand Extraction Prototype I is capable of washing two cubic yards of contaminated sand per hour.  Our technology utilizes a fluidized bed, vibrating feeds in a counter-flow of wash water in the sand cleaning process. During that hour, the machine is capable of producing two cubic yards of cleaner sand.  Typically, during a natural disaster, environmental spill, or industrial accident, the sand must be removed and replaced with additional sand.  The process of removing and replacing large quantities of sand can be cumbersome and difficult because of the size and volume of the sand required, which must be moved by multiple loads of large trucks into the location.  Our commercial unit will be mobile and outfitted onto a standard 50-foot trailer to send directly to an environmental disaster, accident, or cleanup site. The mobile unit will consist of all the equipment necessary to remove contaminants from sand at the  location. The mobile unit will require two people to operate.  The Sand Extraction Prototype I is still in the development stage.  

 

However, in December, 2010, upon ceasing attempts to seek financing to rectify certain problems with the Mobile Unit, we became a company with minimal assets and operations.   As such, management has concluded that we are a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

Development Stage

 

The Company has not earned revenue from planned principal operations since inception (July 28, 2008). Accordingly, the Company's activities have been accounted for as those of a "Development Stage Enterprise" as American Standards of Codification (“ASC”) Codification Topic 915, Development Stage Entities.  Among the disclosures required by Topic 915 are that the Company's financial statements be identified as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company's inception.

 

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:  For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. As of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, there were no cash equivalents.

 

Property and Equipment:   New property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5 years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for minor items, repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the period the event takes place.

 

Revenue Recognition:  SA Recovery recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price of a unit is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonable assured.  Since our inception on July 28, 2008 to our fiscal year ended February 29, 2012, SA Recovery had no revenues.

 

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets:  We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets including equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

 

Stock Based Compensation:  Stock-based awards to non-employees are accounted for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC Codification Topic 718 – Share-Based Payments.

 

We adopted the provisions of Topic 718 which requires that companies measure and recognize compensation expense at an amount equal to the fair value of share-based payments granted under compensation arrangements.  

 

Accounting For Obligations And Instruments Potentially To Be Settled In The Company’s Own Stock: We account for obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company’s stock in accordance with ASC Codification Topic 815 – Derivatives and Hedging.  This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company’s own stock.

 

Fair Value Measurements:   The Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure,” at inception.  ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new faire value measurements.  FASB ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.  As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.  As a basis for considering such assumptions, FASB ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

·         Level 1.  Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.

·         Level 2.  Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly, and

·         Level 3.  Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The FASB’s ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” became effective for the Company on July 28, 2008.  FASB ASC Topic 825 establishes a fair value option that permits entities to choose to measure eligible financial instruments an certain other items at fair value at specified election dates.  A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value options have been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.  Fo the year ended February 29, 2012, there were no applicable items on which the fair value option was elected.

 

The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011:

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 inputs for the years ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011.

 

Earnings per Common Share: Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of options to purchase common stock (only if those options are exercisable and at prices below the average share price for the period) and shares issuable upon the conversion of our Preferred Stock. Due to the net losses reported, dilutive common equivalent shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

 

There were no common equivalent shares required to be added to the basic weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the years ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011.

 

Income Taxes:  We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes.

 

Deferred income taxes are recorded in accordance ASC Codification Topic 740 – Income Taxes. Under this guidance, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Topic 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not to occur. Realization of our net deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generating sufficient taxable income in future years in appropriate tax jurisdictions to realize benefit from the reversal of temporary differences and from net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all of our net deferred tax asset. Management will continue to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset and its related valuation allowance. If our assessment of the deferred tax assets or the corresponding valuation allowance were to change, we would record the related adjustment to income during the period in which we make the determination. Our tax rate may also vary based on our results and the mix of income or loss in domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions in which we operate.

 

In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and to the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we will reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We will record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:  In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The guidance in ASU 2011-08 is intended to reduce complexity and costs by allowing an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The amendments also improve previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Also, the amendments improve the examples of events and circumstances that an entity having a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount should consider in determining whether to measure an impairment loss, if any, under the second step of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income”, which is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. ASU 2011-05 will become effective for the Company on December 1, 2012. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. In addition, items of other comprehensive income that are reclassified to profit or loss are required to be presented separately on the face of the financial statements. This guidance is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements by requiring that such amounts be presented either in a single continuous statement of income and comprehensive income or separately in consecutive statements of income and comprehensive income. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”, which is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. This guidance amends certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. Additional disclosure requirements in the update include: (1) for Level 3 fair value measurements, quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used by the entity, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs; (2) for an entity’s use of a nonfinancial asset that is different from the asset’s highest and best use, the reason for the difference; (3) for financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, the fair value hierarchy level in which the fair value measurements were determined; and (4) the disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2011-04 will become effective for the Company on December 1, 2012. We are currently evaluating ASU 2011-04 and have not yet determined the impact that adoption will have on our financial statements.

 

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, “Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring”. This amendment explains which modifications constitute troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”). Under the new guidance, the definition of a troubled debt restructuring remains essentially unchanged, and for a loan modification to be considered a TDR, certain basic criteria must still be met. For public companies, the new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and applies retrospectively to restructuring occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. ASU 2011-02 has become effective for the Company on September 1, 2012. The Company does not believe that the guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of supplementary pro forma information for business combinations.” This update changes the disclosure of pro forma information for business combinations. These changes clarify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. Also, the existing supplemental pro forma disclosures were expanded to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, we do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, “Intangible –Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts.” This update requires an entity to perform all steps in the test for a reporting unit whose carrying value is zero or negative if it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that a goodwill impairment exists based on qualitative factors, resulting in the elimination of an entity’s ability to assert that such a reporting unit’s goodwill is not impaired and additional testing is not necessary despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate otherwise. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, we do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.
