FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our capital
needs, business plans and expectations. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
regarding our planned business, availability of funds, government regulations, common share prices,
operating costs, capital costs, our ability to deploy our planned business and generate revenues and other
factors. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be
forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology
such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict",
"potential" or "continue", the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. These statements
are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by our management in light of its experience and its
perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other
factors they believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Actual events or results may differ materially. In
evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors, including the risks outlined below, and,
from time to time, in other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ( the
“Commission”). These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking
statement. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update these statements, or disclose any difference
between its actual results and those reflected in these statements. Given these uncertainties, readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Overview
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 16, 1977 as “Turinco, Inc.” to engage in
any legal undertaking. On July 24, 2006, the shareholders approved a change of the Company’s name
from “Turinco, Inc.” to Arvana, Inc to reflect the acquisition of Arvana Networks, Inc and the decision to
operate a telecommunications business. We discontinued efforts related to our telecommunications
business as of December 31, 2009 and as of January 1, 2010 re-entered the development stage. We have
since been in the process of seeking out other business opportunities.
Our office is located at 700 Lavaca Street, Suite 1400, Austin, Texas 78701, and our telephone number is
(512) 462-3327. Our registered agent is Gateway Enterprises, Inc. 3230 East Flamingo Road, Las Vegas,
Nevada 89121.
The Company currently trades on the OTC Markets Group, Inc. over the counter market platform under
the symbol “AVNI.”
Company
Our present intent is to identify and evaluate business opportunities that might prove to be a good match
for the Company. We will not be able to develop any identified business opportunities without additional
financing. Our board of directors and management are actively pursuing financing in order to maintain
operations while we evaluate potential businesses.
3
Selection of a Business
We will not restrict our consideration to any particular business or industry segment, and might consider,
among others, finance, brokerage, insurance, transportation, communications, research and development,
biotechnology, service, natural resources, manufacturing or high-technology. Management recognizes
that the Company’s inadequate financial resources limit the scope and number of suitable business
venture candidates that might otherwise be available.
The decision to participate in a specific business opportunity will be made upon management’s analysis
of the quality of the other firm’s management and personnel, the anticipated acceptability of new products
or marketing concepts, the merit of technological changes and numerous other factors which are difficult,
if not impossible, to analyze through the application of any objective criteria. In many instances, it is
anticipated that the historical operations of a specific venture may not necessarily be indicative of the
potential for the future because of the necessity to substantially shift a marketing approach, expand
operations, change product emphasis, change or substantially augment management, or make other
changes. We will to some extent be dependent upon the management of a business opportunity to identify
such problems and to implement, or be primarily responsible for the implementation of, required changes.
We will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements could not be
obtained. Nonetheless, it may be anticipated that any opportunity in which we determine to participate
would present certain risks to our shareholders. Risks might include the track record of management’s
effectiveness, failures to establish a consistent market for products or services, development stage, or to
realize profits. Many more of these risks may not be adequately identified prior to the selection of a
specific opportunity, and our shareholders must, therefore, depend on the ability of management to
identify and evaluate such risks as such become evident.
Acquisition of Business
We intend to become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, franchise or
licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. The Company may also purchase stock or assets
of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction, it is possible that our present management
and shareholders would not be in control of the Company. In addition, our sole officer and directors may,
as part of the terms of any transaction, resign and be replaced by new officers and directors without a vote
of the Company’s shareholders.
The Company anticipates that any securities issued in any reorganization would be issued in reliance on
exemptions from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances,
however, as a negotiated element of any transaction, the Company might agree to register securities either
at the time the transaction is consummated, under certain conditions, or at a specified time thereafter. The
issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market would likely
have a depressive effect on our stock price.
While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company may be a party cannot be predicted, it may
be expected that the parties to the business transaction would find it desirable to avoid the creation of a
taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so called “tax-free” reorganization under Section
368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In order to obtain tax-free
treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or
more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, the shareholders of the Company would
retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which could result in
significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders.
4
In the event a merger or acquisition were to occur, our shareholders would in all likelihood hold a lesser
percentage ownership interest in the Company following any merger or acquisition. The percentage
ownership might be subject to significant reduction in the event we acquire a target company with
substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a
significant substantial dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the Company’s then
shareholders.
Operation of Business after Acquisition
The Company's operation following a merger with or acquisition of a business would be dependent on the
nature of the business and the interest acquired. We are unable to determine at this time whether the
Company would be in control of the business or whether present management would be in control of the
Company following the acquisition. We could expect that any future business would present various
challenges that cannot be predicted at the present time.
Competition
Whatever the business opportunity is that we do ultimately acquire or develop, we are almost certain to be
involved in intense competition with other business entities, many of which will have a competitive edge
over us by virtue of their stronger financial resources and prior business experience.
Employees
The Company is a development stage company and currently has one part time employee. Ruairidh
Campbell, our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and one of our directors manages the
Company. The Company looks to Mr. Campbell for his entrepreneurial skills and talents. Management
uses consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary and does not plan to engage any full-time
employees in the near future.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements and Labor Contracts
The Company currently operates under and holds no patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises,
concessions, or royalty agreements. We are not subject to any labor contracts.
Governmental and Environmental Regulation
General
The Company cannot at this time anticipate the government regulations, if any, to which the Company
may be subject following a merger or acquisition. However, we can be certain that the conduct of any
business subjects us to environmental, public health and safety, land use, trade, or other governmental
regulations and state or local taxation. In selecting a business in which to acquire an interest, management
would endeavor to ascertain the effects of such government regulation on a prospective business
opportunity. In certain circumstances, however, such as the acquisition of an interest in a new or start-up
business activity, it may not be possible to predict with any degree of accuracy the impact of government
regulation.
The Company believes that it is currently in compliance in all material respects with all laws, rules,
regulations and requirements that affect its business. Further, we believe that compliance with such
applicable laws, rules, regulations and requirements does not impose a material impediment on our ability
to conduct business.
5
Research and Development
During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company spent no amounts on research and
development activities.
Reports to Security Holders
The Company’s annual report contains audited consolidated financial statements. We are not required to
deliver an annual report to security holders and will not automatically deliver a copy of the annual report
to our security holders unless a request is made for such delivery. We file all of our required reports and
other information with the Commission. The public may read and copy any materials that are filed by the
Company with the Commission at the Commission’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E.,
Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference
Room by calling the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330. The statements and forms filed by us with the
Commission have also been filed electronically and are available for viewing or copy on the Commission
maintained Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information

Capital Stock
The following is a summary of the material terms of the Company’s capital stock. This summary is
subject to and qualified by our articles of incorporation and bylaws.
Common Stock
As of December 31, 2013, there were 55 shareholders of record holding a total of 885,130 shares of fully
paid and non-assessable common stock of the 5,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001,
authorized. The board of directors believes that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater
than the number of record holders because a portion of our outstanding common stock is held in broker
“street names” for the benefit of individual investors. The holders of the common stock are entitled to one
vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of the
common stock have no preemptive rights and no right to convert their common stock into any other
securities. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock.
Warrants
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our common
stock.
7
Stock Options
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding stock options to purchase shares of our
common stock.
Convertible Securities
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding stock options to purchase shares of our
common stock.
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
The Company has not authorized any securities for issuance under any equity compensation plan.
Purchases of Equity Securities made by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers
The Company had not repurchased any shares of its common stock during the year ended December 31,
2013.
Dividends
The Company has not declared any cash dividends since inception and does not anticipate paying any
dividends in the near future. The payment of dividends is within the discretion of the board of directors
and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, and other relevant factors.
There are no restrictions that currently limit the Company's ability to pay dividends on its common stock
other than those generally imposed by applicable state law.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, there were no sales of the Company’s securities.

Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Our shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes
additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than
established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000
or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000
jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser’s written agreement to the
transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our
securities and also may affect your ability to sell shares in the secondary market.
Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny
securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk
of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in
understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as “bid” and “offer” quotes, a dealers
“spread” and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its
customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers
rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the NASD’s toll free telephone
number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the
disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons.
The application of the penny stock rules may affect your ability to resell your shares.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other
parts of this annual report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,”
“plans,” “predicts,” and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-
looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include but are not limited to those
discussed in the subsection entitled Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future
Results and Financial Condition below. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our
financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Our fiscal year end is December 31.
Discussion and Analysis
The Company’s plan of operation over the next twelve months is to identify and acquire a suitable
business opportunity. We will require a minimum of $50,000 in funding over the next 12 months to
maintain current operations and seek out a suitable business opportunity. Should we identify a new
opportunity within this time frame, for acquisition or development, the Company will most likely need
additional funding to complete any given transaction. The amount of funding required will depend on the
opportunity and is not determinable at this time.
9
We anticipate that the required prospective funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale
of our common stock since we have no assets with which to secure debt financing other than that
procured in small unsecured advances from shareholders. However, the Company does not have any
financing arranged and cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to realize sufficient funding from
the sale of our common stock to maintain operations. Management is currently considering all avenues
available to obtain the financing required to maintain operations while seeking out a suitable business
opportunity.
Accordingly, we will require continued financial support from our shareholders and creditors until we are
able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to maintain operations on a sustained basis. There is
substantial doubt that we will be successful at achieving these results.
Results of Operations
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company (i) sought out prospective business
opportunities; and (ii) satisfied continuous public disclosure requirements.
Our operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are summarized below.

Comprehensive Losses for the Periods Presented
For the period from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a net loss of
$854,763. We realized a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $91,190 compared with a net
loss of $325,696 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our net losses decreased due to an unrealized
foreign exchange gain in the year ended December 31, 2013 of $27,344 as compared to an unrealized
foreign exchange loss of $20,171 in the year ended December 31, 2012, due to the relative decrease in the
value of the Canadian currency used to pay liabilities accrued in foreign currencies.
We did not generate revenue during this period and expect to continue to incur losses over the next twelve
months which we believe will be comparable to the those incurred in the current annual period or until
such time as a new net income business opportunity is concluded.
Capital Expenditures
The Company expended no amounts on capital expenditures for the period from January 1, 2010, to
December 31, 2013.
10
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
The Company has a prospective income tax benefit resulting from a net operating loss carry-forward and
start up costs that will offset any future operating profit.
Impact of Inflation
The Company believes that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations over the past three years
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is in the development stage and has since inception experienced significant changes in
liquidity, capital resources, and stockholders’ deficit. The Company had current and total assets of $321
as of December 31, 2013, consisting solely of cash and a working capital deficit of $2,396,017 as
compared to current and total assets of $1,254, consisting solely of cash and a working capital deficit of
$2,304,827 as of December 31, 2012. Net stockholders' deficit in the Company was $2,396,017 at
December 31, 2013 as compared to a net stockholder’s deficit in the Company of $2,304,827 at
December 31, 2012.
Cash Used in Operating Activities
Cash flow used in operating activities was $149,388 for the period from January 1, 2010, to December 31,
2013. Cash flow used in operating activities for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2013 was
$27,140 as compared to $38,720 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2012. The change in
cash flows used in operating activities over the current period can be attributed to the decrease in net loss
in the current twelve month period due primarily to decreases in administrative expenses. Our cumulative
cash flow used in operating activities was used on accounting, administration, consulting, legal expenses
and filing fees. We expect to continue to use cash flow in operating activities over the next twelve months
or until such time as the Company can generate sufficient revenue to transition away from net losses.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash flow used in investing activities was $0 for the period from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2013.
We do expect to use cash flow in investing activities in connection with the development or acquisition of
a suitable business opportunity. Until such time as such unidentified opportunity is concluded, we do not
expect to use cash flows in investing activities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flow provided from financing activities was $149,175 for the period from January 1, 2010, to
December 31, 2013. Cash flow provided by financing activities for the twelve months ended December
31, 2013, decreased to $26,207 as compared to $38,240 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.
The decrease in cash flow provided from financing activities over the comparative twelve month periods
can be attributed to the decrease in unsecured loan amounts procured from shareholders. We expect to
continue to use cash flow provided by financing activities to procure sufficient funds to maintain
operations in order to seek out suitable business opportunities.
11
The Company’s current assets are insufficient to conduct its plan of operation over the next twelve (12)
months. We will have to seek at least $50,000 in debt or equity financing over the next twelve months to
maintain operations. The Company has no current commitments or arrangements with respect to, or
immediate sources of this funding. Further, no assurances can be given that funding is available. The
Company’s shareholders are the most likely source of new funding in the form of loans or equity
placements though none have made any commitment for future investment and the Company has no
agreement formal or otherwise. The Company’s inability to obtain sufficient funding to maintain
operations will have a material adverse affect on its ability to fulfill its current plan of operation to search
for suitable business opportunities.
The Company does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Company had no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements as of December 31, 2013.
The Company had no commitments for future capital expenditures that were material at December 31,
2013.
The Company has no defined benefit plan or contractual commitment with any of its officers or directors.
The Company has no current plans for the purchase or sale of any plant or equipment.
The Company has no current plans to make any changes in the number of employees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2013, we have no significant 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,
revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are
material to stockholders.
Future Financings
We anticipate continuing to rely on debt or equity sales of our shares of common stock in order to
continue to fund our business operations. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales
of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our plan of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
In Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and
2012, included in our Form 10-K, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to
be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes
that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires Company management to make significant
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By
their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an on-going basis, the
Company evaluates estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other facts
and circumstances that are believed to be reasonable, and the results form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions.
12
Going Concern
The Company’s auditors have expressed an opinion as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern as a result of an accumulated deficit of $23,560,185 since inception and negative cash flows
from operating activities as of December 31, 2013. The Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern is subject to the ability of the Company to realize a profit and /or obtain funding from outside
sources. Management’s plan to address the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern includes:
(i) obtaining funding from the private placement of debt or equity; and (ii) realizing revenues from its
prospective development or acquisition of a suitable business opportunity. Management believes that it
will be able to obtain funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods
discussed above, though there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition

Stock-Based Compensation
We have adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 718, Share-Based Payment, which
addresses the accounting for stock-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee
services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair
value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity
instruments.
We account for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than
employees in accordance with ASC 505. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the
consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more
reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee
services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the
provider of goods or services.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Arvana Inc. and subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Arvana, Inc. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets of Arvana, Inc. as ofDecember 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the period from the beginning of the development stage on January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2013
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Arvana, Inc. as ofDecember 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the period from the beginning of the development stage on January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Arvana, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Arvana, Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency. These matters, along with the other matters set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Arvana Inc. and Subsidiaries
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
1. Nature of Business and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
Arvana, Inc. (“our”, “we”, ”us” and the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Nevada as Turinco, Inc. on September 16, 1977, with authorized common stock of 2,500 shares with a par
value of $0.25. On October 16, 1998, the authorized capital stock was increased to 100,000,000 common
shares with a par value of $0.001 and a forward common stock split of eight shares for each outstanding
share. In 2005, we completed another forward common stock split of nine shares for each outstanding
share. On July 24, 2006, the shareholders approved a change of the Company’s name from Turinco, Inc.
to Arvana Inc. On September 30, 2010, the authorized capital stock was decreased to 5,000,000 common
shares with a par value of $0.001 and effected a reverse split of one share for every twenty shares
outstanding.
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiary Arvana Networks Inc. (including its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Arvana
Participaçōes S.A. (“Arvana Par”) and Arvana Comunicações do Brasil S. A. (“Arvana Com”)). The
Company has ceased all operations in its subsidiary companies, and has written-off or disposed of all
assets in the subsidiary companies, consequently they are now all considered to be inactive subsidiaries.
As a result of this inactivity, the Company entered into a new development stage as of January 1, 2010.
Our reporting currency and functional currency is the United States dollar (“US Dollar”) and the
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US Dollars.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the
realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the year ended
December 31, 2013, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $91,190. At December 31, 2013, the
Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,396,017. These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Accordingly, the Company will require continued financial support from its shareholders and creditors
until it is able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations on a sustained basis. There is substantial
doubt that the Company will be successful at achieving these results. Failure to obtain the ongoing
support of its shareholders and creditors may make the going concern basis of accounting inappropriate,
in which case the Company’s assets and liabilities would need to be recognized at their liquidation values.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification
of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might arise from this uncertainty.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of presentation
The Company is in the process of evaluating business opportunities and is a development stage company.
The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of
Arvana, Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the cumulative amounts from the
beginning of the development stage on January 1, 2010, through December 31, 2013, have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for
financial information with the instructions to Form 10-K and Regulation S-K. Results are not necessarily
indicative of results which may be achieved in the future.
b) Basis of consolidation
Included in the financial statements are the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned inactive
subsidiaries Arvana Networks, Arvana Par, and Arvana Com. All inter-company transactions and
balances have been eliminated.
c) Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These
estimates include the recognition of deferred tax assets based on the change in unrecognized deductible
temporary tax differences.
d) Foreign currency translation and transactions
When translating the Brazilian subsidiary operations to the Company’s reporting currency non monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange
rate in effect on the transaction date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange
prevailing during the periods.
Transactions conducted in foreign currencies are recorded using the exchange rate in effect on the
transaction date. At the period end, monetary assets and liabilities are translated to the functional currency
of each entity using the exchange rate in effect at the period end date. Transaction gains and losses are
recorded in foreign exchange gain or loss in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
e) Comprehensive income
The Company considers comprehensive income (loss) as a change in equity (net assets) of a business
entity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It
includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and
distributions to owners.
f) Cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments, with terms to maturity of three months or less
when acquired, to be cash equivalents.

g) Financial instruments
The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of
financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values:
Cash - the carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at a bank.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and loans payable - the carrying amount approximates fair value
due to the short-term nature of the obligations.
The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 2013 and December
31, 2012 follows:

The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of December 31, 2013, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the
Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize
quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs
utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values
determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included
situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset:

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
h) Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of
cash. The Company maintains cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any
significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.
i) 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.
j) Stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for all stock-based payments to employees and non-employees under ASC 718
“Stock Compensation,” using the fair value based method. Under the fair value method, stock-based
payments are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity
instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The cost of stock-based
payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the grant date is measured and
recognized at that date.
k) Loss per share
Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
and potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including stock options and warrants. For the periods
presented, this calculation proved to be anti-dilutive.
l) Reclassifications
Certain of the comparative figures for the prior years have been reclassified to conform with the
presentation adopted in the current year.

m) Recent accounting pronouncements
We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not
believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on
our financial condition or the results of our operations.
3. Amounts Due to Related Parties and Loans Payable to Stockholders

Euros, Canadian Dollars and US Dollars. All amounts reflected on these consolidated financial
statements are expressed in US Dollars. Repayment of the loans is due on closing of any future financing
arrangement by the Company. The balance of accrued interest of $268,271 and $215,518 is included in
accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively.

interest, are unsecured, and have no fixed terms of repayment.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2013, and 2012, was $757,240 and
$716,938, respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income
during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.
Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income,
and tax planning strategies in assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets. In order to fully realize the
deferred tax asset attributable to net operating loss carryforwards, the Company will need to generate
future taxable income of approximately $2,200,000 prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carry-
forwards.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this annual report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s
management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, of the
effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2013.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief
financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by
this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording,
processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods
specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and such information was not accumulated and
communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the
supervision of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
§ Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets.
§ Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and the board of directors.
§ Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
15
The Company’s management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to
determine whether there existed material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. A
material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over
financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The assessment identified a
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Since the assessment of the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting did identify a material weakness, management considers its
internal control over financial reporting to be ineffective.
The matter involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considers to be a
material weakness is:
§ Failure to segregate the duties of chief executive officer and chief financial officer, which failure
could result in inadequate implementation and review of financial reporting control procedures.
The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our chief executive officer and chief
financial officer in connection with his review of our financial statements as of December 31, 2013.
Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on our financial
results. However, management believes that the failure to segregate the duties of chief executive officer
and chief financial officer could result in ineffective oversight of the monitoring of required internal
controls over financial reporting, which weakness could result in a material misstatement in our financial
statements in future periods.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and enhance our internal controls over
financial reporting, the Company plans to take the following measures, as soon as is practicable, subject
to the availability of capital and personnel resources:
§ bifurcate the position of chief executive officer and chief financial officer into two separate
positions.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting
firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we,
engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over
financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only management’s
report in this annual report.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
During the year ended December 31, 2013, there has been no change in internal control over financial
reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over
financial reporting.

Our board of directors has determined that Ruairidh Campbell qualifies as an “audit committee financial
expert”, as defined by the rules of the Commission, though it has further determined that he should not be
considered “independent” as that term is defined by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). The

not an employee of the company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings with
the company.

percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms
they file. Based on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, we believe that during the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2013 all such filing requirements applicable to our officers and directors were
complied with, except that Messrs. Dhanani, Tinter and Naso should have filed Forms 3 when they
became officers and directors of the Company and subsequently Forms 5 on their respective resignations.
ITEM 11.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
The objective of the Company’s compensation program is to provide an incentive to our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer for services rendered. The compensation program for our sole executive
officer is comprised of a consulting fee paid to a related party based on separate services rendered in
connection with maintaining our disclosure obligations with the Commission. We utilize this form of
compensation because we feel that it is adequate to retain and motivate our executive officer at this stage
of our development. Nonetheless, when we develop or acquire an existing business opportunity our
intention in respect to executive compensation would be to compensate Company executives in
accordance with compensatory packages typical of other development stage companies. We do not expect
to rely on any specific formula to determine compensation. Future compensation arrangements for
Company executives will most likely include salaries, stock awards and stock options.
Executive compensation paid to our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer for the
periods ended December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, were $4,401 and $0 respectively
Executive compensation accrued to our former chief executive officer for the periods ended December
31, 2013, and December 31, 2012 were $23,350 and $60,110 respectively. Executive compensation
accrued to our former chief financial officer for the periods ended December 31, 2013 and December 31,
2012 were $10,870 and $24,000 respectively.
Table
The following table provides summary information for 2013 and 2012 concerning cash and non-cash
compensation paid or accrued by the Company to or on behalf of (i) the chief executive officer and the
chief financial officer and (ii) any other employee to receive compensation in excess of $100,000.

Under Commission Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly,
through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which
includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to
dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one
person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are
deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon
exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage
ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially
owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of
outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or
voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on December 31, 2013. The
percentage calculations are based on the aggregate of 885,130 shares issued and outstanding as at December 31, 2013.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
None of our directors or executive officers, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director, nor any
person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights
attached to all of our outstanding shares, nor any members of the immediate family (including spouse,
parents, children, siblings, and in−laws) of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct
or indirect, in any transaction since the beginning of our last fiscal year or in any presently proposed
transaction which, in either case, has or will materially affect us, except as follows:
§ the Company paid a company related to its CEO, CFO and PAO for services rendered in
connection with the preparation of regulatory filings with the Commission.
§ the Company accrued certain amounts for the services of its former CEO and former CFO and
PAO.
Director Independence
Our common stock trades in the OTCQB. As such, we are not currently subject to corporate governance
standards of listed companies, which require, among other things, that the majority of the board of
directors be independent.
23
Since we are not currently subject to corporate governance standards relating to the independence of our
directors, we choose to define an “independent” director in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule
5605(a)(2)). The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the
director is not an employee of the company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings
with the company. We have two independent directors under the above definition.

our interim financial statements and management discussion and analysis, as well as advisory services
associated with our financial reporting.
Policy on Pre-Approval by Audit Committee of Services Performed by Independent Auditors
Our Audit Committee pre-approves all audit services to be provided to us by our independent auditors.
Our Audit Committee’s policy regarding the pre-approval of non-audit services to be provided to us by
our independent auditors is that all such services shall be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. Non-
audit services that are prohibited to be provided by our independent auditors may not be pre-approved. In
addition, prior to the granting of any pre-approval, our Audit Committee must be satisfied that the
performance of the services in question will not compromise the independence of the auditors.
