FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.

Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the words “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Fresh Harvest” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q collectively refers to Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the “Parent Company”), and its subsidiaries. The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” relating to the Company. These “forward looking statements” represent the Company’s current expectations or beliefs including, but not limited to, statements concerning the Company’s operations, performance, financial condition and growth. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “projects,” “will,” “would” or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, such as our ability to obtain additional working capital, the affect of general economic and business conditions, our ability to implement our business and acquisition strategy, our ability to effectively integrate our acquisitions, competition, availability of key personnel, changes in, or the failure to comply with government regulations, and other risks detailed from time-to-time in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

FRESH HARVEST PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

April 30, 2012



NOTE 1.

GENERAL ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS


Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the “Parent Company”), and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”), are engaged in the proprietary development, sales and marketing of organic and natural food products.  


On December 16, 2005, the Parent Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition and Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New York corporation (“New York FHP”), Michael Friedman, Marcia Roberts and Illuminate, Inc.  The Merger Agreement contemplates the merger of the Parent Company and New York FHP (the “Merger”).  Although the Parent Company has operated as if the Merger was consummated in December 2005, it has come to the Parent Company’s attention that certain required filings were not made in the State of New Jersey and the State of New York to properly consummate the Merger.   As a result, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Parent Company and New York FHP had not completed the Merger.  In order to complete the Merger, the Parent Company and New York FHP plan to take the following steps:


1. Pay all taxes owed by New York FHP to the State of New York.  As of October 31, 2011, New York FHP owed New York State payroll related taxes in the amount of approximately $30,145 plus applicable interest and penalties.

2. File an application on behalf of the Parent Company for authority to do business in the State of New York with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, which application requires the consent of the New York State Tax Commission, and pay any applicable late filing penalties.  

3. File a final franchise tax return with the State of New York with respect to New York FHP.

4. File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey.

5. File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.


The Parent Company intends to take the steps required to complete the Merger, however, the Parent Company cannot forecast when it will pay the amounts owed to the State of New York, make the indicated filings or otherwise complete the Merger.  In addition, there is a risk that the State of New York and the State of New Jersey may require the Parent Company and New York FHP to take additional actions that the Company is not presently contemplating.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to complete the above described steps and to consummate the Merger, then there is a risk that the Parent Company’s acquisition of New York FHP could be challenged which could seriously harm the Parent Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to consummate the Merger, the value of the Parent Company’s shares held by the Parent Company’s shareholders could significantly decline.


The Company sells its products to consumers through local, regional and national supermarkets, retailers, distributors, brokers and wholesalers.  In August 2009, the Parent Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Wings of Nature, LLC.  On March 2, 2010, the Parent Company entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Take and Bake, Inc., doing business as A.C. LaRocco Pizza Company. In April 2010, the Parent Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, New A.C. LaRocco, for the purpose of implementing its new pizza business.  On May 4, 2011, the Parent Company, New York FHP, New A.C. LaRocco, the Seller, Clarence Scott and Karen Leffler entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”), which was effective on May 11, 2011.  


The Company continues to have limited capital resources and has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future.  As of April 30, 2012, the Company has limited cash available for operations and has an accumulated deficit of $8,036,304. Management believes that cash on hand as of April 30, 2012 is not sufficient to fund operations for the next year.  The Company will be required to raise additional funds to meet its short and long-term planned goals. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available at all, can be obtained on terms reasonable to the Company.   


The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has limited revenue and without realization of additional capital, it would be highly unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Reclassifications


These consolidated financial statements include reclassification adjustments as of October 31, 2010 to the accrued expenses, salaries and wages payable, interest, accrued payroll taxes, and notes payable for comparison purposes only.  These amounts have been reclassified on the balance sheet of the Company to accounts payable and notes payable, accordingly.  These reclassifications did not have any effect on the reported net loss for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 or the year ended October 31, 2011.

FRESH HARVEST PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

April 30, 2012



Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results may differ significantly from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company maintains cash balances in a non-interest bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of April 30, 2012.


As of April 30, 2012, the bank account located in Spokane, Washington that the Parent Company was using (and [no] longer uses) for the operations of the New A.C. LaRocco is in the name of Take and Bake, Inc. dba AC LaRocco Pizza.  


As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Company’s cash balances were $23 and $942, respectively.


Net Loss Per Share Calculation


Basic net loss per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.   Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued.

Revenue Recognition and Sales Incentives


Sales are recognized when the earnings process is complete, which occurs when products are shipped in accordance with terms of agreements, title and risk of loss transfer to customers, collection is probable and pricing is fixed or determinable. Sales are reported net of sales incentives, which include trade discounts and promotions and certain coupon costs. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in reported sales. Allowances for cash discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized.


Concentrations of Credit Risk


Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of accounts receivable.


For the quarter ended April 30, 2012, the Company earned revenue from three customers which represented approximately 83.71% of total revenue and at April 30, 2012, three customers had accounts receivable balances representing 78.14% of the gross accounts receivable balance.

April 30, 2012



As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Company’s obsolete inventory was $74,803 and $40,676, respectively.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment is carried at cost and depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The Company believes the asset lives assigned to its property and equipment is within the ranges/guidelines generally used in food manufacturing and distribution businesses.  Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets of five years. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.  


For the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, depreciation expense was $1,216 and $0, respectively.


Dividends


The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011.


Income Taxes


The provision for income taxes is the total of the current taxes payable and the net of the change in the deferred income taxes. Provision is made for the deferred income taxes where differences exist between the period in which transactions affect current taxable income and the period in which they enter into the determination of net income in the financial statements.



Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at carrying value, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived assets such as property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.


Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized a loss on the disposal of assets of $0 and $287,798 respectively.


Impairment of Goodwill


In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 350, Intangible-Goodwill and Other, the Company performed an annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth quarter of the year ended October 31, 2010. Based upon a combination of factors including a lower stock price of the Company’s common stock since March 2, 2010, the New A.C LaRocco’s operating losses since March 2, 2010, and challenging macro-economic conditions, the Company concluded that sufficient indicators existed to require it to perform a goodwill impairment analysis.


Having determined that the goodwill was potentially impaired, the Company performed the second step of the goodwill impairment analysis.  All of the impairment was allocated to the goodwill rather than allocating any of the impairment to any unrecognized intangible assets because they are subject to security interests and liens by the Creditor and Contract Manufacturer of the New A.C. LaRocco.

The non-cash charge had no impact on the Company’s compliance with debt covenants, its cash flows or available liquidity.


Share-based compensation


The Company accounts for common stock issued to employees, directors, and consultants in accordance with the provisions of Stock Compensation. The compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.  The cost associated with common stock issued to employees, directors and consultants will recognized, at fair value, on the date issued.  Awards granted to non-employee consultants will be subsequently re-measured to current fair value until performance is completed or a performance commitment exists.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $378,714 and $0 in stock issued for services.  The stock was valued at the closing price on the date issued less a 20% discount.


Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions

The Parent Company and or its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for the years prior to October 31, 2005.  With respect to state and local jurisdictions, with limited exception, the Parent Company and or its subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax audits prior October 31, 2005.  In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities.

Series A Preferred Stock


Certificate of Designations


On February 23, 2011, the Parent Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey.  The Certificate of Designations, subject to the requirements of New Jersey law, states the designation, number of shares, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Parent Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).  In summary, the Certificate of Designations provides:


Number


5,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s Preferred Stock are designated as shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.


Dividends


Any dividends (other than dividends on common stock payable solely in common stock or dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock payable solely in Series A Preferred Stock) declared or paid in any fiscal year will be declared or paid among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and common stock then outstanding in proportion to the greatest whole number of shares of common stock which would be held by each such holder if all shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations.  The Parent Company’s Board of Directors is under no obligation to declare dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock.


Conversion


Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is generally convertible (subject to an increase in the number of shares of the Parent Company’s authorized common stock (the “Conversion Amendment”)) into 100 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock (the “Conversion Rate”).  


Subject to the prior increase in the number of the Parent Company’s authorized shares of common stock, each share of Series A Preferred Stock would automatically be converted into shares of common stock at the then effective Conversion Rate for such share immediately upon the election of the Parent Company.  On September 6, 2011, the authorized number of shares of the Parent Company’s common stock was increased to 2,000,000,000 shares and the Parent Company has elected to cause the conversion of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of common stock.  As a result, 2,350,003 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted into an aggregate of 235,000,300 shares of common stock

NOTE 7.  

PROVISION FOR CORPORATE INCOME TAXES


The Company provides for income taxes by the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.  This also requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  


The Company has approximately $1,950,000 in gross deferred tax assets at April 30, 2012, resulting from net operating loss carry forwards.  A valuation allowance has been recorded to fully offset these deferred tax assets because the future realization of the related income tax benefits is uncertain. Accordingly, the net provision for income taxes is zero as of April 30, 2012.


As of April 30, 2012, the Company has federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $5,000,000 available to offset future taxable income through 2031.


As of April 30, 2012, the difference between the tax provision at the statutory federal income tax rate and the tax provision attributable to loss before income taxes is as follows (in percentages):


Statutory federal income tax rate

 

 

-34

%

State taxes – net of federal benefits

 

 

-5

Fin 48 - Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions

The Parent Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for the years prior to October 31, 2005.  With respect to state and local jurisdictions, with limited exception, the Parent Company and or its subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax audits prior to October 31, 2005.  In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these open tax years.


Based on management’s review of the Company’s tax position, the Parent Company and subsidiaries had no significant unrecognized corporate tax liabilities as of April 30, 2012 payable to the Internal Revenue Service due to the net operating loss carry-forward; however, the Company had yet to file its 2005 through 2009 Federal, New Jersey nor New York Corporate Income Tax Returns.


NOTE 8.

UNPAID PAYROLL TAXES


As of April 30, 2012, the Company owed the Internal Revenue Service and New York State payroll related taxes in the amounts of $118,101 and $30,145, respectively, plus applicable interest and penalties.  The total amount due to both taxing authorities including penalties and interest as of April 30, 2012 was approximately $244,000 subject to further penalties and interest plus accruals on unpaid wages for a total of $300,000.  The Internal Revenue Service has placed a federal tax lien on all of the assets of the Company and has designated the balance owed as uncollectible at this time. The Company is currently negotiating a payment plan with the State of New York.


As of April 30, 2012, the New A.C. LaRocco had not filed to do business in the State of Washington and had unpaid payroll taxes payable to the Internal Revenue Service and the State of Washington in an approximate amount of $35,000 including estimated penalties and interest for non-filing and non-payment.

THE EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements


As of and for the quarter ended April 30, 2012, the Company does not expect any of the recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.


NOTE 11.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.


For the quarters ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company reported a net loss of $190,387 and $402,517, respectively.  


As of April 30, 2012, the Company maintained total assets of $187,401, total liabilities including long-term debt of $1,996,065 along with an accumulated deficit of $8,036,304.


Management believes that additional capital will be required to fund operations through the year ended October 31, 2012 and beyond, as it attempts to generate increasing revenue, and develop new products. Management intends to attempt to raise capital through additional equity offerings and debt obligations. The Company’s ability to raise additional common equity capital is dependent on the approval of the Company’s shareholders of an increase in the authorized common stock of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining financing at the level needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying annual financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


The Company’s operations are subject to certain additional risks and uncertainties including, among others, dependence on outside suppliers and manufacturers, competition, dependence on its exclusive license and relationship with the licensor, uncertainties regarding patents and proprietary rights, dependence on key personnel, and other business risks. In addition, there is no assurance, assuming the Company is successful in raising additional capital that the Company will be successful in achieving profitability or positive cash flow.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations


Overview


Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the “Parent Company”), and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”), are engaged in the proprietary development, sales and marketing of organic and natural food products.  


On December 16, 2005, the Parent Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition and Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New York corporation (“New York FHP”), Michael Friedman, Marcia Roberts and Illuminate, Inc.  The Merger Agreement contemplates the merger of the Parent Company and New York FHP (the “Merger”).  Although the Parent Company has operated as if the Merger was consummated in December 2005, it has come to the Parent Company’s attention that certain required filings were not made in the State of New Jersey and the State of New York to properly consummate the Merger.   As a result, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Parent Company and New York FHP had not completed the Merger.  In order to complete the Merger, the Parent Company and New York FHP plan to take the following steps:


1. Pay all taxes owed by New York FHP to the State of New York.  As of October 31, 2011, New York FHP owed New York State payroll related taxes in the amount of approximately $30,145 plus applicable interest and penalties.

2. File an application on behalf of the Parent Company for authority to do business in the State of New York with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, which application requires the consent of the New York State Tax Commission, and pay any applicable late filing penalties.  

3. File a final franchise tax return with the State of New York with respect to New York FHP.

4. File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey.

5. File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.


The Parent Company intends to take the steps required to complete the Merger, however, the Parent Company cannot forecast when it will pay the amounts owed to the State of New York, make the indicated filings or otherwise complete the Merger.  In addition, there is a risk that the State of New York and the State of New Jersey may require the Parent Company and New York FHP to take additional actions that the Company is not presently contemplating.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to complete the above described steps and to consummate the Merger, then there is a risk that the Parent Company’s acquisition of New York FHP could be challenged which could seriously harm the Parent Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to consummate the Merger, the value of the Parent Company’s shares held by the Parent Company’s shareholders could significantly decline.


The Company sells its products to consumers through local, regional and national supermarkets, retailers, distributors, brokers and wholesalers.  In August 2009, the Parent Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Wings of Nature, LLC.  On March 2, 2010, the Parent Company entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Take and Bake, Inc., doing business as A.C. LaRocco Pizza Company. In April 2010, the Parent Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, New A.C. LaRocco, for the purpose of implementing its new pizza business.  On May 4, 2011, the Parent Company, New York FHP, New A.C. LaRocco, the Seller, Clarence Scott and Karen Leffler entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”), which was effective on May 11, 2011.  


The Company continues to have limited capital resources and has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future.  As of April 30, 2012, the Company has limited cash available for operations and has an accumulated deficit of $8,036,304. Management believes that cash on hand as of April 30, 2012 is not sufficient to fund operations through October 31, 2012.  The Company will be required to raise additional funds to meet its short and long-term planned goals. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available at all, can be obtained on terms reasonable to the Company.   


The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has limited revenue and without realization of additional capital, it would be highly unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.


Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 30, 2012 and April 30, 2011


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, we recorded net revenues of $189,986, versus $221,643 for a decrease of $31,795 or 14.35% over the three months ended April 30, 2011. The Company believes that the decrease is primarily due to the cyclical nature of the revenues of the New AC LaRocco’s products.   



20





For the three months ended April 30, 2012, cost of goods sold was $62,637 versus $221,643 for a decrease of $132,607 or 67.91% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The decrease in the cost of goods sold is primarily due to a decrease in returns and allowances, off-invoice promotions, manufacturer charge-backs, and freight and shipping related expenses.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, gross profit was $127,349 versus $26,399 for an increase of $100,950 or 382.4% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The increase in gross profit is primarily due to a decrease in off-invoice promotions, manufacturer charge-backs, and freight and shipping related expenses.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, gross profit in percentages was 67% versus 11.9% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The change in gross profit is primarily due to a decrease in off-invoice promotions and manufacturer charge-backs of our natural and organic pizza sold under the brand name of AC LaRocco.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, operating expenses decreased to $360,062 from $409,702 or 12.11% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The decrease is primarily due to decrease in general and administrative, legal, and sales and marketing expenses.


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, interest expense on our convertible notes payable decreased to $18,534 from $19,214, or 3.87% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in notes payable. 


For the three months ended April 30, 2012, we realized a net loss of $190,387 as compared to a net loss of $214,820 for the three months ended April 30,2011.  The decrease of $24,433 is primarily due to transactions related to decreases in expenses.


Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended April 30, 2012 and April 30, 2011


For the six months ended April 30, 2011, we recorded net revenues of $402,728 versus $329,223 for a decrease of $73,505 or 18.25% over the six months ended April 30, 2012. The Company believes that the decrease is primarily due to the cyclical nature of the revenues of the New AC LaRocco and that Wings of Nature did not sell any of it products.   


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, cost of goods sold was $190,586 versus $302,793 for a decrease of $112,207 or 37.05% over the six months ended April 30, 2011.  The decrease in the cost of goods sold is primarily due to a decrease in returns and allowances, off-invoice promotions, manufacturer charge-backs, and freight and shipping related expenses.


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, gross profit was $138,637 versus $99,793 for an increase of $38,844 or 28.02% over the six months ended April 30, 2011. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to a decrease in off-invoice promotions, manufacturer charge-backs, and freight and shipping related expenses.


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, gross profit in percentages was 42.11% versus 24.78% over the three months ended April 30, 2011.  The change in gross profit is primarily due to a decrease in off-invoice promotions and manufacturer charge-backs of our natural and organic pizza sold under the brand name of AC LaRocco.


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, operating expenses decreased to $654,162 from $740,955 or 11.71% over the six months ended April 30, 2011.  The decrease is primarily due to decrease in general and administrative, legal and sales and marketing expenses..


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, interest expense on our convertible notes payable decreased to $40,130 from $47,330, or 17.94% over the six months ended April 30, 2011.  This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in notes payable. 


For the six months ended April 30, 2012, we realized a net loss of $323,865 as compared to a net loss of $690,315 for the three months ended April 30,2011.  The decrease of $366,450 is primarily due to transactions related to decreases in expenses.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Since inception, we have not been able to finance our business from cash flows from operations and have been reliant upon loans and proceeds from the sale of equity which may not be available to us in the future, or if available, on reasonable terms. Accordingly, if we are unable to obtain funding from loans and the sale of our equity, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern.  


As of April 30, 2012, we had current assets of $187,401 including $23 cash, inventory of $74,803 and net accounts receivable of $112,462.  We had fixed assets with a net book value of $113 and we had total liabilities of $1,996,065.

  



21




Currently, we do not have sufficient financial resources to implement or complete our business plan. We anticipate that we will need a minimum of approximately $600,000 to satisfy our cash requirements over the next 12 months.  We cannot be assured that revenue from operations will be sufficient to fund our activities during the next 12 months. Accordingly, we will have to seek alternate sources of capital. We can offer no assurance that we will be able to raise such funds on acceptable terms to us or otherwise. If we are unsuccessful in our attempts to raise sufficient capital, we may have to cease operations or postpone our plans to initiate or complete our business plan.


If we are unable to raise the required financing, we may have to cease operations. Currently, we have a limited credit history with vendors, suppliers, manufacturers, packagers and food producers; we must pay for our purchases “up front” and are not granted credit terms. This will continue until we have established a satisfactory credit history. We cannot estimate, with any certainty, how long this may take, or if it will occur at all. Our inability to obtain credit from such providers has a significant impact upon our liquidity and our ability to utilize funds for other purposes. Similarly, if and when we hire additional personnel, including management and sales personnel, the cost related to such hiring will have a significant impact on our liquidity and deployment of funds.


The food producer of our natural and organic pizza line under the brand name of AC LaRocco has a lock box agreement on the cash collected from accounts receivable.  After they are paid for their invoices and the monthly payment requirement on the outstanding note payable owed to them, we receive the balance of the cash collections.  This will continue until we are able to satisfy the balance of the note and negotiate an alternative acceptable payment arrangement with them.


Since March 2, 2010 through April 30, 2012, the food producer of our natural and organic pizza line has been paid approximately $80,000 of principal on the note payable we assumed in the Asset Acquisition.

Certificate of Designations

On February 23, 2011, the Parent Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey.  The Certificate of Designations, subject to the requirements of New Jersey law, states the designation, number of shares, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Parent Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).  In summary, the Certificate of Designations provides:




23




Number


5,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s Preferred Stock are designated as shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.


Dividends


Any dividends (other than dividends on common stock payable solely in common stock or dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock payable solely in Series A Preferred Stock) declared or paid in any fiscal year will be declared or paid among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and common stock then outstanding in proportion to the greatest whole number of shares of common stock which would be held by each such holder if all shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations.  The Parent Company’s Board of Directors is under no obligation to declare dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock.


Conversion


Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is generally convertible (subject to an increase in the number of shares of the Parent Company’s authorized common stock (the “Conversion Amendment”)) into 100 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock (the “Conversion Rate”).  


Subject to the prior increase in the number of the Parent Company’s authorized shares of common stock, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock at the then effective Conversion Rate for such share immediately upon the election of the Parent Company.  On September 6, 2011, the authorized number of shares of the Parent Company’s common stock was increased to 2,000,000,000 shares.  The Parent Company subsequently elected to cause the conversion of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding on September 16, 2011 into shares of common stock.  As a result, 2,350,003 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted into an aggregate of 235,000,300 shares of common stock.


Liquidation


In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Parent Company, the assets of the Parent Company legally available for distribution by the Parent Company would be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and common stock in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them, with the shares of Series A Preferred Stock being treated for this purpose as if they had been converted to shares of common stock at the then applicable Conversion Rate.


Voting


On any matter presented to the stockholders of the Parent Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Parent Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter.  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Conversion Amendment shall be deemed to be in full force and all shares of Series A Preferred Stock would be considered to be fully convertible into shares of Common Stock without restriction.  Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Parent Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, holders of Series A Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class.


Issuance to Take and Bake, Inc.


On March 2, 2011, in lieu of the 15,000,000 shares of common stock described in the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Parent Company issued 150,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Seller, which shares have been converted into 15,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.  On May 27, 2011, the Parent Company issued an additional 150,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Seller pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which shares have been converted into 15,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


Other Issuances of Series A Preferred Stock


On March 4, 2011, the Parent Company entered into a letter agreement with Michael J. Friedman, the Parent Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which the Parent Company and Mr. Friedman agreed that an aggregate of $228,008 of accrued, but unpaid compensation would be converted into 268,244 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 26,824,400 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.






24





On March 4, 2011, the Parent Company issued 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to each of Michael Friedman, Jay Odintz and Dominick Cingari as a fee for their service on the Parent Company’s Board of Directors.  Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into an aggregate of 30,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


On March 8, 2011, the Parent Company and Jumpstart Marketing, Inc. (“Jumpstart”) entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which the Parent Company and Jumpstart agreed that all amounts owed by the Parent Company to Jumpstart under the Marketing Agreement dated November 20, 2009 (the “Marketing Agreement”) between the Parent Company and Jumpstart (pursuant to which Jumpstart provided certain marketing services to the Parent Company) would be converted into 99,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and that the Parent Company would not have any further obligations to Jumpstart under the Marketing Agreement or otherwise. Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 9,900,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


On March 8, 2011, the Parent Company and 5W Public Relations, LLC (“5W”) entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which the Parent Company and 5W agreed that that all amounts owed by the Parent Company to 5W under the letter agreement dated May 25, 2010  (the “5W Agreement”) between the Parent Company and 5W (pursuant to which 5W provided certain public relations services to the Parent Company) would be converted into 90,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and that the Parent Company would not have any further obligations to 5W under the 5W Agreement or otherwise.  Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 9,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


Between March 3, 2011 and March 8, 2011, the Parent Company entered into letter agreements with certain creditors of the Parent Company pursuant to which such creditors agreed to convert an aggregate debt of approximately $686,914 into an aggregate of approximately 1,232,759 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 123,275,900 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


On May 4, 2011, the Parent Company issued 60,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for consulting services rendered on behalf of the Company.  Such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 6,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


Other Issuances


In addition to the issuances described above, during the quarter year ended January 31, 2012, the Parent Company entered into agreements with certain creditors and consultants of the Parent Company to convert an aggregate of $290,500 owed by the Company to such persons into an aggregate of 72,804,770 shares of the Company’s common stock.


Letter Agreement – Mercury Equity Group


On May 17, 2011, the Parent Company entered into a letter agreement with Mercury Equity Group, LLC (“Mercury”) to, among other things, retain Mercury on an exclusive basis to provide general financial advisory and investment banking services to the Company.  The agreement provides, among other things, for the issuance to Mercury of up to a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis upon the happening of certain events.  As of October 31, 2011, no common or preferred shares had been issued pursuant to this agreement.  This agreement has been terminated.  


Letter Agreement – Vikas Patel


On September 20, 2011, the Parent Company and Vikas Patel entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the Parent Company and Mr. Patel agreed to convert $100,000 owed to Mr. Patel by the Parent Company pursuant to a consulting agreement into 25,000,000 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.


Principal Commitments


As of April 30, 2011, we did not have any material commitments that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies


Our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2011 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible and intangible assets, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the periods covered.


A summary of accounting policies that have been applied to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements can be found in Note No. 2 to our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.


We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. The most significant estimates relate to accounts receivable and the fair value of financial instruments. We base our estimates on historical company and industry experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which, form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ materially from those estimates.


Inflation


We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.


Item 4.  Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal 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 January 31, 2011. 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 principal executive officer and principal financial officer 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 that such information was not accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.


Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting


As previously reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011, the Company’s management has identified 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. Management has concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting had the following deficiency:


 

 

We were unable to maintain any segregation of duties within our business operations due to our reliance on a single individual fulfilling the role of sole officer. This control deficiency did result in adjustments to our 2011 and 2010 interim and annual financial statements.  Accordingly we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.


To the extent reasonably possible, given our limited resources, our goal is, upon sufficient operating cash flow and/or capital, to separate the responsibilities of principal executive officer and principal financial officer, intending to rely on two or more individuals. We will also seek to expand our current board of directors to include additional individuals willing to perform directorial functions. Since the recited remedial actions will require that we hire or engage additional personnel, this material weakness may not be



26




overcome in the near term due to our limited financial resources. Until such remedial actions can be realized, we will continue to rely on the advice of outside professionals and consultants.


Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended April 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings.


None.


Item 1A. Risk Factors.


We are subject to various risks that may materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. An investor should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q before deciding to purchase our common stock. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline or we may be forced to cease operations.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS


We have limited capital resources and have experienced net losses and negative cash flows and we expect these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future, as such we expect that we will need to obtain additional financing to continue to operate our business. Such financing may be unavailable or available only on disadvantageous terms, which could cause the Company to curtail its business operations and delay the execution of its business plan.


To date, we have not generated significant revenues.  Our net losses for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 and the year ended October 31, 2011 were $190,387 and $1,047,113 respectively.  As of April 30, 2012, we realized an accumulated deficit of $8,036,304 and we had little cash on hand.  Our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations and we expect that our revenues will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future.  As such, we expect that we will continue to need significant financing to operate our business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or that the terms of such additional financing, if available, will be acceptable to us. If additional financing is not available or not available on terms acceptable to us, our ability to fund our operations or otherwise respond to competitive pressures may be significantly impaired. We could also be forced to curtail our business operations, reduce our investments, decrease or eliminate capital expenditures and delay the execution of our business plan, including, without limitation, all aspects of our operations, which would have a material adverse affect on our business.  The items discussed above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability in the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including whether our products achieve market acceptance and whether we obtain additional financing. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have a materially adverse impact on us.


We are currently in default with respect to various outstanding debt obligations, which if we fail to repay, could result in foreclosure upon our assets.

 

We are currently in default with respect to a number of our debt obligations.  In the event we are unable to repay such debt obligations, we could lose all of our assets and be forced to cease our operations.


Third Parties may have certain rights to A.C. LaRocco’s Assets.


The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that the Parent Company acquired all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in agreements relating to the Seller’s business or assets.  The Company believes that certain of these agreements may have provided third parties rights in the assets that the Company acquired from the Seller.  To the extent that the assets acquired by the Company from the Seller remain subject to such agreements any attempt by such third parties to enforce such agreements could seriously harm the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.




27




We may be required to raise additional financing by issuing new securities with terms or rights superior to those of our shares of common stock, which could adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock and our business.


We will require additional financing to fund future operations. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, if at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the percentage ownership of our current stockholders will be reduced, and the holders of the new equity securities may have rights superior to those of the holders of shares of common stock, which could adversely affect the market price and the voting power of shares of our common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt securities, the holders of these debt securities may similarly have some rights senior to those of the holders of shares of common stock, and the terms of these debt securities could impose restrictions on operations and create a significant interest expense for us which could have a materially adverse affect on our business.


Accrued and Unpaid Payroll Taxes


As of April 30, 2012, the Company owed the Internal Revenue Service and New York State payroll related taxes in the amounts of $118,101 and $30,145, respectively, plus applicable interest and penalties.  The total amount due to both taxing authorities including penalties and interest as of April 30, 2012, was approximately $244,000 subject to further penalties and interest plus accruals on unpaid wages for a total of approximately $300,000.


The Internal Revenue Service has placed a federal tax lien on all of the assets of the Company and has designated the balance owed as uncollectible at this time. The Company is currently negotiating a payment plan with the State of New York.  


As of April 30, 2012, the New A.C. LaRocco had filed to do business in the State of Washington and had unpaid payroll taxes payable to the Internal Revenue Service and the State of Washington of approximately $35,000 including estimated penalties and interest for non-filing and non-payment.  The New A.C. LaRocco has filed all of the 2011 quarterly unemployment reports and has not made the requisite tax payments to the State of Washington.

 

As of April 30, 2012, New A.C. LaRocco continued to have unpaid payroll taxes payable to the Internal Revenue Service. As of April 30, 2012, the New A.C. LaRocco does not have any payroll as all employees have been terminated.


 If we are unable to resolve these tax liabilities such failure could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.


We have not yet completed our merger with New York FHP.


On December 16, 2005, the Parent Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition and Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New York corporation (“New York FHP”), Michael Friedman, Marcia Roberts and Illuminate, Inc.  The Merger Agreement contemplates the merger of the Parent Company and New York FHP (the “Merger”).  Although the Parent Company has operated as if the Merger was consummated in December 2005, it has come to the Parent Company’s attention that certain required filings were not made in the State of New Jersey and the State of New York to properly consummate the Merger.   As a result, as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Parent Company and New York FHP had not completed the Merger.  In order to complete the Merger, the Parent Company and New York FHP plan to take the following steps:


1.

Pay all taxes owed by New York FHP to the State of New York.  As of October 31, 2011, New York FHP owed New York State payroll related taxes in the amount of approximately $30,145 plus applicable interest and penalties.

2.

File an application on behalf of the Parent Company for authority to do business in the State of New York with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, which application requires the consent of the New York State Tax Commission, and pay any applicable late filing penalties.   

3.

File a final franchise tax return with the State of New York with respect to New York FHP.

4.

File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey.

5.

File a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.


The Parent Company intends to take the steps required to complete the Merger, however, the Parent Company cannot forecast when it will pay the amounts owed to the State of New York, make the indicated filings or otherwise complete the Merger.  In addition, there is a risk that the State of New York and the State of New Jersey may require the Parent Company and New York FHP to take additional actions that the Company is not presently contemplating.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to complete the above described steps and to consummate the Merger, then there is a risk that the Parent Company’s acquisition of New York FHP could be challenged which could seriously harm the Parent Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.  If the Parent Company and New York FHP are unable to consummate the Merger, the value of the Parent Company’s shares held by the Parent Company’s shareholders could significantly decline.

There is no assurance that the market will continue to accept our products which could have an adverse affect on our business.


There can be no assurance that our food products will be perceived as being superior to existing products or new products being developed by competing companies or that such products will otherwise be accepted by consumers. The market prices for our products may exceed the prices of competitive products. There can be no assurance that the prices of our products will be perceived by consumers as cost-effective or that the prices of such products will be competitive with existing or new competing products. If consumers do not accept our products, we may be unable to achieve profitability.  


Other companies, many of which have greater resources than we have, may develop competing products which may cause our products to become noncompetitive which could have an adverse affect on our business.


We will be competing with firms that sell organic food products. In addition, additional potential competitors may enter the market in the future. Some of these current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, access to larger customer bases, well-established business organizations and product lines and significantly greater resources. There can be no assurance that one or more such companies will not succeed in developing or marketing products that will render our products noncompetitive. If we fail to compete successfully, our business would suffer.


We may suffer the loss of key personnel or may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel to maintain and expand our business which have a material adverse affect on our business.


Our success is highly dependent on the continued services of certain skilled management and personnel. The loss of any of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, our success will depend upon, among other factors, the recruitment and retention of additional highly skilled and experienced management and personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain existing employees or to attract and retain additional personnel on acceptable terms given the competition for such personnel and our limited financial resources.  In addition, we are highly dependent on the services of our President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael Friedman, and Mr. Friedman devotes a portion of his time to unrelated business interests.


Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” and as a result, related broker-dealer requirements may hamper its trading and liquidity.


Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” since it meets one or more of the definitions in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. These include but are not limited to the following: (i) the common stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) the common stock is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; or (iii) the common stock is issued by a company with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the past three (3) years. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers cannot recommend our common stock to investors, thus hampering its liquidity.


Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-2 require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with documentation disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the documents before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any of our shares.


Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives.


We may have difficulty raising necessary capital to fund operations as a result of market price volatility for our shares of common stock.


The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:


•  new products by us or our competitors;

•  additions or departures of key personnel;

•  sales of our common stock;

•  our ability to integrate operations and products;



29




•  our ability to execute our business plan;

•  operating results below expectations;

•  industry developments;

•  economic and other external factors; and

•  period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.


Because we have limited revenues to date, you may consider any one of these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate widely as a result of any of the above listed factors.  In recent years, the securities markets in the U.S. have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, our shares of common stock can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will have no control. If our business development plans are successful, we may require additional financing to continue to develop our products and to expand into new markets. The success of our products may, therefore, be dependent upon our ability to obtain financing through debt and equity or other means.


We will not pay cash dividends and investors may have to sell their shares in order to realize their investment.


We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for reinvestment in the development and marketing of our products. As a result, investors may have to sell their shares of common stock to realize their investment.


Our business and future operating results may be adversely affected by events that are outside of our control.


Our business and operating results are vulnerable to interruption by events outside of our control, such as earthquakes, fire, power loss, telecommunications failures and uncertainties arising out of terrorist attacks throughout the world, the economic consequences of military action and the associated political instability, and the effect of heightened security concerns on domestic and international travel and commerce.


RISKS RELATING TO OUR INDUSTRY


We may be subject to significant liability which could materially harm our business should the consumption of any of our products cause illness or physical harm.


The sale of food products for human consumption involves the risk of injury or illness to consumers. Such injuries may result from inadvertent mislabeling, tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination or spoilage. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to recall or withdraw products, which may lead to a material adverse effect on our business. Even if a situation does not necessitate a recall or market withdrawal, product liability claims might be asserted against us. While we are subject to governmental inspection and regulations and believe our facilities and those of our co-packers comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations, if the consumption of any of our products causes, or is alleged to have caused, a health-related illness in the future we may become subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused illness or physical harm could adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential customers and consumers and our corporate and brand image. Moreover, claims or liabilities of this sort might not be covered by insurance or by any rights of indemnity or contribution that we may have against others. A product liability judgment against us or a product recall could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.


We rely on independent certification for a number of our food products, the loss of which could materially harm our business.


We rely on independent certification, such as certifications of our products as “organic”, to differentiate our products from others. The loss of any independent certifications could adversely affect our market position as a natural and organic food company, which could harm our business.


We must comply with the requirements of independent organizations or certification authorities in order to label our products as certified. For example, we can lose our “organic” certification if a manufacturing plant becomes contaminated with non-organic materials, or if it is not properly cleaned after a production run. In addition, all raw materials must be certified organic.


Consumer concern regarding the safety and quality of food products or health concerns could adversely affect sales of certain of our products.


If consumers in our principal markets lose confidence in the safety and quality of our food products, even without a product liability claim or a product recall, our business could be adversely affected. Consumers have been increasingly focused on food safety and health and wellness with respect to the food products that they buy. The food industry is also subject to scrutiny relating to genetically



30




modified organisms and the health implications of obesity. We have been and will continue to be impacted by publicity concerning the health implications of food products generally, which could negatively influence consumer perception and acceptance of our products and marketing programs. Developments in any of these areas could cause our results to differ materially from results that are reflected in forward-looking statements herein.


The cost of compliance with organic regulations may adversely impact our profitability.


Our products are organic and are required to meet the standards set forth in the Organic Foods Production Act and the regulations adopted by the National Organic Standards Board. These regulations require strict methods of production for organic food products and limit the ability of food processors to use non-organic or synthetic materials in the production of organic foods or in the raising of organic livestock. Compliance with these regulations will increase our cost of product, which we may be unable to offset with price increases.  Accordingly, compliance with these regulations may adversely affect our profitability.


Sales of our products will depend, in part, on the performance of local, regional and national supermarkets, retailers, distributors, brokers and wholesalers, and should they perform poorly or give higher priority to other brands or products, our business could be adversely affected.

 

In addition to our online web-store, we sell our products to consumers principally through local, regional and national supermarkets, retailers, distributors, brokers and wholesalers. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain such distribution outlets.  The poor performance by such distributors, or our inability to collect accounts receivable from them, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, such distributors offer branded and private label products that compete directly with our products for retail shelf space and consumer purchases. Accordingly, there is a risk that our distributors may give higher priority to their own products or to the products of our competitors. In the future, our customers may not continue to purchase our products or provide our products with adequate levels of promotional support.


Our co-packers are subject to numerous laws and governmental regulations, exposing them to potential claims and compliance costs that could adversely affect our business


Our co-packers are subject to extensive regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and other national, state and local authorities. For example, our co-packers are subject to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations promulgated by the FDA. This comprehensive regulatory program governs, among other things, the manufacturing, composition and ingredients, packaging and safety of foods. Under this program the FDA regulates manufacturing practices for foods through our current "good manufacturing practices" regulations and specifies the recipes for certain foods. Furthermore, our co-packers’ processing facilities and products are subject to periodic inspection by federal, state and local authorities. Any changes in these laws and regulations could increase the cost of developing and distributing our products and otherwise increase the cost of conducting our business, which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, failure by our co-packers to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including future laws and regulations, could subject them to civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, recalls or seizures, as well as potential criminal sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on our supply of products, our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 5.  Other Information.


Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.


Dismissal of Santora CPA Group


On December 29, 2011, the Fresh Harvest Products, Inc. (“Fresh Harvest” or the “Company”) Board of Directors authorized the dismissal of its then independent registered public accounting firm, Santora CPA Group (“Santora”), who had originally been retained by the Company on February 24, 2011. The Company’s Board of Directors dismissed Santora because of the Company’s cost reduction efforts. Santora had not been engaged long enough to perform an audit or issue a report on the Company’s financial statements. The Company does not have an audit committee.


Representatives of the Company and Santora had a conversation on December 27, 2011 discussing the Company’s intention of dismissing Santora for its services.   On December 30, 2011, Santora furnished the Company with the letter attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1, a copy of which was sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), stating the client-auditor relationship had ceased.  On January 4, 2012, the Company provided Santora with a copy of the disclosure contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K.


During the term of Santora’s engagement (from February 24, 2011 through December 30, 2011) and prior to the dismissal of Santora, there were no disagreements with Santora on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Santora would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.


The SEC permits companies to issue condensed information in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which information must be reviewed by such company’s outside auditor. Since the information may be condensed, the SEC also allows the auditor to not issue a review report unless the company states in the filing that the information was reviewed by the outside auditor.  As the Company’s auditor, Santora had previously completed the necessary steps to issue reports with respect to the Company’s financial information for the first three fiscal quarters of the 2011 fiscal year, but did not issue such reports for the above described reason.  Santora has informed the Company, that if such reports had been issued, Santora would have expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  


The Company has requested that Santora furnish it with another letter, addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the Company’s statements in this Item 4.01, and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.


Appointment of Accell Audit & Compliance, PA


On December 28, 2011, the Company engaged Accell Audit & Compliance, PA (“Accell”), an independent registered public accounting firm, as the Company’s principal independent accountant with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.  The Company has not consulted with Accell Audit & Compliance, PA on any accounting issues prior to engaging them as the Company’s new auditors.


During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the interim period prior to December 28, 2011, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company’s behalf has consulted with Accell Audit & Compliance, PA regarding either:


1. The application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or;


2. Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instruction to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
