Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains forward-looking statements and information that are based on the beliefs of our management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to us. Such statements should not be unduly relied upon. When used in this report, forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions, as well as statements regarding new and existing products, technologies and opportunities, statements regarding market and industry segment growth and demand and acceptance of new and existing products, any projections of sales, earnings, revenue, margins or other financial items, any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations, any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, uncertainties related to conducting business, any statements of belief or intention, and any statements or assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These statements reflect our current view concerning future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. There are important factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from those described in this report as anticipated, estimated or expected, including, but not limited to: competition in the industry in which we operate and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins, volatility in the securities market due to the general economic downturn; Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regulations which affect trading in the securities of “penny stocks,” and other risks and uncertainties. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward- looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future. Depending on the market for our stock and other conditional tests, a specific safe harbor under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 may be available. Notwithstanding the above, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) expressly state that the safe harbor for forward-looking statements does not apply to companies that issue penny stock. Because we may from time to time be considered to be an issuer of penny stock, the safe harbor for forward-looking statements may not apply to us at certain times.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2017

 

NOTE 1 – INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (US GAAP) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial statements at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 and for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 contain all normally recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2018. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report for the year ended March 31, 2017.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.

 

Cash

 

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes” which codified SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and FIN 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No.109.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017.

 

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted 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 requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2017 or March 31, 2017.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts of the assets to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets based on estimated future cash flows.

 

Earnings Per Share Information

 

FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” provides for calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. For purposes of the earnings per share calculation, we consider shares to be issued as issued shares as of the date the shares are earned. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as the common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive.

 

Share Based Expenses

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 “Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees” which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 (“EITF 96-18”), “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02). The main objective of ASU 2016-02 is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. For public entities, ASU 2016-02 is effective for consolidated financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years; early application is permitted. The provisions of this accounting update are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

NOTE 4 – AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

 

Great Northern Energy, Inc.

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Great Northern Energy, Inc. (“GNE”) to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had issued 7,400,000 shares of common stock to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties. Due to the lack of any tangible results as contemplated in the Agreement, and to GNE’s failure to uphold certain of its obligations under the Agreement, we determined it would be in our best interest to terminate the Agreement.

 

GNE has returned the stock certificate for 7,400,000 shares, however, GNE did not submit an executed stock power which is required to cancel the GNE shares. As such, these shares are considered issued and outstanding at June 30, 2017.

 

NOTE 5 - NOTE PAYABLE

 

In December 2016, the Company issued a $20,000 8% Senior note with 40,000 warrants exercisable at $0.50 per share. The note matures on December 9, 2017. The fair value of the warrants was $9,394, and was reported as a debt discount with amortization of $2,209 for the period ended June 30, 2017. The note payable balance net of the discount as of June 30, 2017 was $14,998.

 

NOTE 6 –STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

In December 2012, the Board of directors authorized the offering for sale and issuance of up to a maximum of 3,000,000 Shares of our Series “A” Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Stated Value of the Preferred Stock is $5.00 per Share. Each Share of Preferred Stock bears an eight percent (8%) cumulative dividend, due and payable quarterly as of July 31, October 31, January 31 and April 30. The Company records cumulative dividends whether or not declared. Each share may be converted by the holder thereof, at any time, into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share and one warrant exercisable at $6.50 per share into one share of the Company’s common stock. The Company may force conversion to common stock and one warrant if the Company’s common stock trades over $7.00 for forty-five consecutive trading days.

 

 9 

 

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company had dividends of $18,200. No dividends were declared or paid. Accumulated dividends in arrears as of June 30, 2017 were $212,466.

 

Common stock

 

The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 75,000,000 shares with par value of $0.001.

 

The Company accounts for common stock earned but not issued as common stock payable in Shareholders’ Equity. As of June 30, 2017 certain individuals and consultants were due $932,000 for services rendered. At the date these balances are paid the resulting effect on Common Stock and Paid in Capital would be an increase in outstanding common shares of 1,328,368, and are included in potentially dilutive shares.

 

Common stock payable totaling $145,000 shares were due for the three months ended June 30, 2017, of which 192,304 shares related to executive compensation valued at $90,000, and is included in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations, and 118,912 shares for professional fees valued at $55,000.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company received $25 in cash contributions from an executive of the Company.

 

Net loss per common share

 

Net loss per share is computed using the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic loss per share. Potential dilutive securities (stock options and warrants) have not been considered when their effect would be anti-dilutive. The potentially dilutive shares, including stock options and warrants would have been 48,800 shares and 1,328,368 shares for common stock payable as of the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

Options

 

On April 28, 2014, the Company granted 308,000 options to purchase the Company’s common stock with a three year term and an exercise price of $1 for 108,000 options and $3 for 200,000 options, pursuant to the terms of the board of director’s agreement. The options were immediately vested and had a fair value of $1,179,395 as the grant date. Options were outstanding for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $0 and 308,000, respectively.

 

The expected term of options granted is estimated at the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bill rate in effect at the time of grant for treasury bills with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options. A summary of option activity as of June 30, 2017 and changes during the quarter ended are presented below:

 

Options  Number of Options   Weighted Average Exercise Price   Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)   Aggregate Intrinsic Value 
                 
Outstanding March 31, 2017   308,000   $2.30    1.08   $- 
Expired   308,000   $2.30    -    - 
Outstanding and exercisable June 30, 2017   -   $-    -   $- 

 

 10 

 

 

Warrants

 

A summary of warrant activity for the period ended June 30, 2017 are presented below:

 

   Number of Warrants   Weighted Average Exercise Price 
Balance at March 31, 2017   48,800   $0.51 
Granted, exercised and expired   -    - 
Balance at June 30, 2017   48,800   $.51 
Warrants exercisable at ended June 30, 2017   48,800   $.51 

 

Warrants expense recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $0 and $0, respectively.

 

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

 

We did not provide any current or deferred U.S. Federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because we have experienced operating losses since inception. Under ACS 740 “Income Taxes,” when it is more likely than not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income the Company must allow for this future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carryforwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carryforward period.

 

The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, applicable under ACS 740.

 

NOTE 8 –RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Advances and Note Payable

 

On November 28, 2012, the CE McMillan Family Trust (the “CE Trust”) advanced the Company $100 to facilitate the opening of a new bank account in Irving, Texas. The trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust is also the managing member of Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC (“Cicerone”). The advance had not been repaid as of June 30, 2017.

 

On September 4, 2013, we received a $750,000 Revolving Credit Note (the “Revolving Note”) from Cicerone for operating expenses. The Revolving Note matured on February 1, 2015 and was extended to February 1, 2017 on the same terms and conditions and was reclassified to non-current liabilities. The note bears interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum. On March 1, 2016 the revolving note was increased to $1,250,000. On July 6, 2016, the note was modified to include conversion of any amount of the debt to common stock at a conversion price of $1, which was the market value per share, and an extension to June 30, 2018. At this time the amendment was considered debt extinguishment with only a nominal gain on extinguishment.

 

On July 22, 2016 Cicerone converted $115,000 in advances to common stock. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the balance due was $799,607, with related accrued interest of $84,380 and $49,491, respectively. Interest expense related to this debt was $8,324 and $6,029 during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Subsequently, the note maturity was extended to June 30, 2020.

Director’s fees

 

In exchange for his services as a member of the Board of Directors until January, 2017, Mr. Mike Farmer was entitled to receive $2,000 per month payable in cash. In addition, during September 30, 2014, Mr. Farmer was awarded options to purchase 108,000 of common stock at $1.00 per share and options to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock at $3.00 per share. The options were fully vested at the date of issuance of the award. Subsequently, during December 2017, Mr. Farmer was issued 65,554 shares in exchange for the cash portion of his compensation due totaling $74,000. The shares were valued at $43,266, resulting in a gain on the exchange totaling $30,734.

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements.

 

The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements as of March 31, 2017, and for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

Overview

 

Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 4, 2007, in the state of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy and it has never been in receivership. Since its incorporation, Rangeford Resources has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations and the Company owns no subsidiaries. The fiscal year end is March 31st. The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.

 

Going Concern

 

We have incurred net losses of approximately $9.7 million since inception through June 30, 2017. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our operating losses and need to raise additional capital. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to increase our revenues and report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.

 

Plan of Operation

 

We have $1,427,150 in current liabilities as of June 30, 2017.we have accumulated losses of $9,654,211. In order to survive as a going concern, the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.

 

Since August 15, 2008 through June 30, 2017, the Company has issued 20,545,534 shares of common stock and 182,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. Proceeds from the sale of common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock have been utilized by the Company to fund its initial development including administrative costs associated with maintaining its status as a Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company plans to focus efforts on selling their common shares in order to continue to fund its initial development and fund the expenses associated with maintaining a reporting company status.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not recognize any revenues from operating activities.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized a net loss of $238,154 compared to $414,932 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease of approximately $176,778 was primarily the result of lower professional fees of approximately $210,000 and lower investor relations of $6,625, offset by an increase in interest expense of approximately $6,954, and an increase in general administrative expenses for approximately $95,293.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had total current assets of $16. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had total current liabilities of $1,427,150 which includes $1,307,541 in accounts payable, $17,100 in accounts payable-related party, $87,411 in accrued interest, and a note payable net of discount totaling $14,998. At June 30, 2017, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,427,134. In addition, the Company had notes payable to a related parties in the amount of $1,004,607.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company used cash of $55 in our operations as compared to cash used of $85 during the same period ended June 30, 2016. No cash was provided by or used in financing or investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, cash provided by investing activities was $25.

 

Short Term

 

On a short-term basis, the Company has not generated any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations. Based on prior history, the Company will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring liabilities as the Company continues exploration activities.

 

Capital Resources

 

Other than the targeted acquisitions, the Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures within the next year, however if operations are commenced, substantial capital will be needed to pay for participation, investigation, exploration, acquisition and working capital.

 

 13 

 

 

Need for Additional Financing

 

The Company does not have capital sufficient to meet its cash needs. The Company will have to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs. Once exploration commences, its needs for additional financing is likely to increase substantially. No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by the Company’s management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow us to cover the Company’s expenses as they may be incurred.

 

The Company will need substantial additional capital to support its proposed future petroleum exploration operations. The Company has no revenues. The Company has no committed source for any funds as of the date hereof. No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed. In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, the Company may not be able to carry out its business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties.

 

Decisions regarding future participation in exploration wells or geophysical studies or other activities will be made on a case-by-case basis. The Company may, in any particular case, decide to participate or decline participation. If participating, the Company may pay its proportionate share of costs to maintain the Company’s proportionate interest through cash flow or debt or equity financing. If participation is declined, the Company may elect to farm-out, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate a method of cost sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the prospect.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable to smaller reporting companies

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2017 or June 30, 2017, to cause the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Going forward from this filing, the Company intends to re-establish and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three month period ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
