CONECTISYS CORPORATION No potential merger candidate has been identified at this time.
We do not propose to restrict our search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and may, therefore, engage in essentially any business in any industry. We have unrestricted discretion in seeking and participating in a business opportunity, subject to the availability of such opportunities, economic conditions, and other factors.
The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, we have only limited resources and may find it difficult to locate good opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to us and our shareholders. We will select any potential business opportunity based on our management's best business judgment.
Our activities are subject to several significant risks, which arise primarily as a result of the fact that we have no specific business and may acquire or participate in a business opportunity based on the decision of management, which potentially could act without the consent, vote, or approval of our shareholders. The risks faced by us are further increased as a result of a lack of resources and our inability to provide a prospective business opportunity with significant capital.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statement after the date of this report, either to conform any statement to reflect actual results or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events. 10 General Business Plan
Our business plan to seek a merger has many uncertainties which pose risks to investors.
We intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in business opportunities presented to us by persons or firms which desire to seek the advantages of an issuer who has complied with the Securities Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"). We will not restrict our search to any specific business, industry or geographical location, and we may participate in business ventures of virtually any nature. This discussion of our proposed business is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. We anticipate that we may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because of our lack of financial resources. We may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or that desire to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. All of these activities have risk to investors including dilution and management.
We expect that the selection of a business opportunity will be complex. Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, we believe that there are numerous firms seeking the benefits of an issuer who has complied with the 1934 Act. Such benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes) for all stockholders and other factors. Potentially, available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. We have, and will continue to have, essentially no assets to provide the owners of business opportunities. However, we will be able to offer owners of acquisition candidates the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in an issuer who has complied with the 1934 Act without incurring the cost and time required to conduct an initial public offering.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, our Board of Directors. We intend to concentrate on identifying preliminary prospective business opportunities which may be brought to our attention through present associations of our director, professional advisors or by our stockholders. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, we will consider such matters as (i) available technical, financial and managerial resources; (ii) working capital and other financial requirements; (iii) history of operations, if any, and prospects for the future; (iv) nature of present and expected competition; (v) quality, experience and depth of management services; (vi) potential for further research, development or exploration; (vii) specific risk factors not now foreseeable but that may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of the company; (viii) potential for growth or expansion; (ix) potential for profit; (x) public recognition and acceptance of products, services or trades; (xi) name identification; and (xii) other factors that we consider relevant. As part of our investigation of the business opportunity, we expect to meet personally with management and key personnel. To the extent possible, we intend to utilize written reports and personal investigation to evaluate the above factors.
We will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements cannot be obtained within a reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction.
Acquisition Interest
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, we may become
a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing
agreement with another company or entity. We may also acquire stock or assets of
an existing business. Upon consummation of a transaction, it is probable that
our present management and stockholders will no longer be in control of us. In
addition, our sole director may, as part of the terms of the acquisition
transaction, resign and be replaced by new directors without a vote of our
stockholders, or sell his stock in us. Any such sale will only be made in
compliance with the securities laws of
It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance upon exemption from registration under application federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, as a negotiated element of the transaction, we may agree to register all or a part of such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or at specified times thereafter. If such registration occurs, it will be undertaken by the surviving entity after it has successfully consummated a merger or acquisition and is no longer considered an inactive company.
11
The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in our securities may have a depressive effect on the value of our securities in the future. There is no assurance that such a trading market will develop.
While the actual terms of a transaction cannot be predicted, it is expected that the parties to any business transaction on will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the business transaction in a so-called "tax-free" reorganization under Sections 368(a) (1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). In order to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owner of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, our stockholders would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. This would result in significant dilution in the equity of our stockholders.
As part of our investigation, we expect to meet personally with management and key personnel, visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis of verification of certain information provided, check references of management and key personnel, and take other reasonable investigative measures, to the extent of our limited financial resources and management expertise. The manner in which we participate in an opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of both parties, and the management of the opportunity.
With respect to any merger or acquisition, and depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and liabilities, our stockholders will in all likelihood hold a substantially lesser percentage ownership interest in us following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event we acquire a target company with assets and expectations of growth. Any merger or acquisition can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by our stockholders.
We will participate in a business opportunity only after the negotiation and execution of appropriate written business agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be predicted, generally we anticipate that such agreements will (i) require specific representations and warranties by all of the parties; (ii) specify certain events of default; (iii) detail the terms of closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties prior to and after such closing; (iv) outline the manner of bearing costs, including costs associated with the Company's attorneys and accountants; (v) set forth remedies on defaults; and (vi) include miscellaneous other terms.
As stated above, we will not acquire or merge with any entity which cannot provide independent audited financial statements within a reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction. If such audited financial statements are not available at closing, or within time parameters necessary to insure our compliance within the requirements of the 1934 Act, or if the audited financial statements provided do not conform to the representations made by that business to be acquired, the definitive closing documents will provide that the proposed transaction will be voidable, at the discretion of our present management. If such transaction is voided, the definitive closing documents will also contain a provision providing for reimbursement for our costs associated with the proposed transaction.
Competition
We believe we are an insignificant participant among the firms which engage in the acquisition of business opportunities. There are many established venture capital and financial concerns that have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and technical expertise than we have. In view of our limited financial resources and limited management availability, we will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors.
Investment Company Act 1940
Although we will be subject to regulation under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and the 1934 Act, we believe we will not be subject to regulation under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") insofar as we will not be
engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. In the event we
engage in business combinations that result in us holding passive investment
interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the
1940 Act. In such event, we would be required to register as an investment
company and incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have
obtained no formal determination from the
12 Intellectual Property
We own no intellectual property.
Employees
We presently have no full time executive, operational, or clerical staff.
Factors Affecting Future Performance
Rather than an operating business, our goal is to obtain debt and/or equity financing to meet our ongoing operating expenses and attempt to merge with another entity with experienced management and opportunities for growth in return for shares of our Common Stock to create value for our shareholders.
Although there is no assurance that this series of events will be successfully completed, we believe we can successfully complete an acquisition or merger which will enable us to continue as a going concern. Any acquisition or merger will most likely be dilutive to our existing stockholders.
Plan of Operations
We are currently investigating to identify and acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.
The Company does not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations and administering the Company's business for the next 12 months are estimated to be as follows:
(i) filing of Exchange Act reports, (approximately
To the extent that the Company's capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, the Company will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and the Company does not anticipate that existing shareholders will provide any portion of the Company's future financing requirements.
No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The Company may consider a business that has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which ay occur in a public offering.
13
None of our officers or directors has had any preliminary contact or discussions with any representative of any other entity regarding a business combination with us. Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.
Our management anticipates that it will likely be able to effect only one business combination, due primarily to our limited financing, and the dilution of interest for present and prospective shareholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management's plan to offer a controlling interest to a target business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us, because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.
The Company anticipates that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking even the limited additional capital that we will have and/or the perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.
Sources of Business Opportunities
The Company intends to use various sources in its search for potential business opportunities, including its officers and directors, consultants, special advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community and others who may present management with unsolicited proposals. Because of the Company's limited capital, it may not be able to retain on a fee basis professional firms specializing in business acquisitions and reorganizations. The Company will most likely have to rely on outside sources, not otherwise associated with the Company that will accept their compensation only after the Company has finalized a successful acquisition or merger. The Company will rely upon the expertise and contacts of such persons, use notices in written publications and personal contacts to find merger and acquisition candidates, the exact number of such contacts are dependent upon the skill and industriousness of the participants and the conditions of the marketplace. To date the Company has not engaged or entered into any definitive agreements nor understandings regarding retention of any consultant to assist the Company in its search for business opportunities, nor is management presently in a position to actively seek or retain any prospective consultants for these purposes.
The Company does not intend to restrict its search to any specific kind of industry or business. The Company may investigate and ultimately acquire a venture that is in its preliminary or development stage, is already in operation, or in various stages of its corporate existence and development. Management cannot predict at this time the status or nature of any venture in which the Company may participate. A potential venture might need additional capital or merely desire to have its shares publicly traded. The most likely scenario for a possible business arrangement could involve the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business that does not need additional capital, but which merely desires to establish a public trading market for its shares. Management believes that the Company could provide a potential public vehicle for a private entity interested in becoming a publicly held corporation without the time and expense typically associated with an initial public offering.
Evaluation
Once the Company has identified a particular entity as a potential acquisition or merger candidate, management will seek to determine whether acquisition or merger is warranted or whether further investigation is necessary. Such determination will generally be based on management's knowledge and experience. See "Item 5. Directors and Executive Officers". Management may elect to engage outside independent consultants to perform preliminary analysis of potential business opportunities. However, because of the Company's limited capital it may not have the necessary funds for a complete and exhaustive investigation of any particular opportunity. Management will not devote full time to finding a merger candidate and will continue to engage in outside unrelated activities.
14
In evaluating such potential business opportunities, the Company will consider, to the extent relevant to the specific opportunity, several factors including potential benefits to the Company and its shareholders; working capital, financial requirements and availability of additional financing; history of operation, if any; nature of present and expected competition; quality and experience of management; need for further research, development or exploration; potential for growth and expansion; potential for profits; and other factors deemed relevant to the specific opportunity.
Because the Company has not located or identified any specific business opportunity as of the date hereof, there may be unidentified risks that cannot be adequately expressed prior to the identification of a specific business opportunity. There can be no assurance following consummation of any acquisition or merger that the business venture will develop into a going concern or, if the business is already operating, that it will continue to operate successfully. Many of the potential business opportunities available to the Company may involve new and untested products, processes or market strategies which may not ultimately prove successful.
Form of Potential Acquisition or Merger
Presently the Company cannot predict the manner in which it might participate in a prospective business opportunity. Each separate potential opportunity will be reviewed and, upon the basis of that review, a suitable legal structure or method of participation will be chosen. The particular manner in which the Company participates in a specific business opportunity will depend upon the nature of that opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the Company and management of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the parties involved. Actual participation in a business venture may take the form of an asset purchase, lease, joint venture, license, partnership, stock purchase, reorganization, merger or consolidation. The Company may act directly or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation, or other form of organization however, the Company does not intend to participate in opportunities through the purchase of minority stock positions.
Because of the Company's current status of inactivity since 2008 and its concomitant lack of assets and relevant operating history, it is likely that any potential merger or acquisition with another operating business will require substantial dilution to the Company's existing shareholders' interests. There will probably be a change in control of the Company, with the incoming owners of the targeted merger or acquisition candidate taking over control of the Company. Management has not established any guidelines as to the amount of control it will offer to prospective business opportunity candidates, since this issue will depend to a large degree on the economic strength and desirability of each candidate, and the corresponding relative bargaining power of the parties. However, management will endeavor to negotiate the best possible terms for the benefit of the Company's shareholders as the case arises. Management may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of any portion of their Common Stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition. In such an event, existing shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to approve or consent to any particular stock buy-out transaction. Management does not have any plans to borrow funds to compensate any persons, consultants, or promoters in conjunction with its efforts to find and acquire or merge with another business opportunity.
Management does not have any plans to borrow funds to pay compensation to any prospective business opportunity, or shareholders, management, creditors, or other potential parties to the acquisition or merger. In either case, it is unlikely that the Company would be able to borrow significant funds for such purposes from any conventional lending sources. In all probability, a public sale of the Company's securities would also be unfeasible, and management does not contemplate any form of new public offering at this time. In the event that the Company does need to raise capital, it would most likely have to rely on the private sale of its securities. Such a private sale would be limited to persons exempt under the Commission's Regulation D or other rule, or provision for exemption, if any applies. However, no private sales are contemplated by the Company's management at this time. If a private sale of the Company's securities is deemed appropriate in the future, management will endeavor to acquire funds on the best terms available to the Company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain funding when and if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms reasonable or acceptable to the Company.
15
In the event of a successful acquisition or merger, a finder's fee, in the form of cash or securities of the Company, may be paid to persons instrumental in facilitating the transaction. The Company has not established any criteria or limits for the determination of a finder's fee, although most likely an appropriate finder's fee will be negotiated between the parties, including the potential business opportunity candidate, based upon economic considerations and reasonable value as estimated and mutually agreed upon at that time. A finder's fee would only be payable upon completion of the proposed acquisition or merger in the normal case, and management does not contemplate any other arrangement at this time. Current management has not in the past used any particular consultants, advisors or finders. Management has not actively undertaken a search for, or retention of, any finder's fee arrangement with any person. It is possible that a potential merger or acquisition candidate would have its own finder's fee arrangement, or other similar business brokerage or investment banking arrangement, whereupon the terms may be overturned by a pre-existing contract; in such case, the Company may be limited in its ability to affect the terms of compensation, but most likely the terms would be disclosed and subject to approval pursuant to submission of the proposed transaction to a vote of the Company's shareholders. Management cannot predict any other terms of a finder's fee arrangement at this time. If such a fee arrangement was proposed, independent management and directors would negotiate the best terms available to the Company so as not to compromise the fiduciary duties of the representative in the proposed transaction, and the Company would require that the proposed arrangement would be submitted to the shareholders for prior ratification in an appropriate manner.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Per
Accounting for Acquisitions
In accordance with the guidance for business combinations, we determine whether a transaction or other event is a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. Each business combination is then accounted for by applying the acquisition method. If the assets acquired are not a business, we account for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. Under both methods, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entity. In addition, for transactions that are business combinations, we evaluate the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. We capitalize acquisition-related costs and fees associated with asset acquisitions and immediately expense acquisition-related costs and fees associated with business combinations.
