Basis and business presentation

 

Clear TV Ventures, Inc. (formerly Eco Ventures Group, Inc.), a publicly traded and holding company of our planned expanding lines of business was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in April 2002 under the name of Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc.  In connection with the consummation of the reverse merger transaction on June 1, 2011 with Eco Ventures Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Eco Ventures – Florida”) formed on November 9, 2010 (date of inception), the accounting acquirer (see below), EVG changed its name to Eco Ventures Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation.  The historical financial statements are those of Eco Ventures – Florida, the accounting acquirer, immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger.  On July 15, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Clear TV Ventures, Inc. (“CTV”). Under the terms of the merger, Clear TV became the surviving corporation.

 

All references that refer to (the “Company” or “Clear TV Ventures, Inc.” or "CTV" or “we” or “us” or “our”) are Clear TV Ventures, Inc., the Registrant and its wholly and or majority owned subsidiaries unless otherwise differentiated, Eco Ventures Group, Inc., a Florida formed corporation.  We are in the development stage, as defined by Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 915-10, Development Stage Entities ("ASC 915-10") and specialize in the planned extraction of precious metals from mineralized waste bodies and reclaimed mine tailings and also will focus on the production of advanced biodiesel from recovered cooking oils and oil rich plants. We have not generated any revenues to date, have incurred expenses and has sustained losses since November 9, 2010 (date of inception).  Consequently, our operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.  For the period from November 9, 2010 (date of inception) through November 30, 2013, we have accumulated a deficit through its development stage of approximately $4,281,203.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary, Eco Ventures - Florida.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The remaining 30% ownership of Eco Ventures – Florida as of November 30, 2013 is recorded as non-controlling interest in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

On July 18, 2013, CTV declared a 15-for-1 reverse stock split for all of its common and preferred stock. All references in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto to the number of shares outstanding and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect this reverse stock split.

Reverse Merger and Corporate Restructure

Reverse Merger and Corporate Restructure

 

On May 27, 2011, the Registrant entered into a material definitive agreement for the acquisition of 70% of the capital stock of Eco Ventures Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Eco Ventures – Florida”).  The acquisition was completed on June 1, 2011 through issuance of 102,500 (including 8,333 shares issued to consultants and 6,333 shares issued to officers) shares of Common Stock of the Company in exchange for 467 Shares of Eco Ventures - Florida in a tax-free share exchange. A total of 28,144 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant shall be issued to Holders of the Registrant’s outstanding Convertible Debentures.  Upon the conversion of all such Convertible Debentures, the Registrant had a total of 130,659 Shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

 

As a condition of the reverse merger transaction, the name of the Registrant was changed to “Eco Ventures Group, Inc.”, a Nevada corporation and the Registrant’s OTC trading symbol has been changed to “EVGI.” The transaction is accounted for in substance as a reverse acquisition of the Registrant by Eco Ventures – Florida since the stockholders of Eco Ventures – Florida owned a majority of the Company’s voting power immediately following the merger transaction and Eco Ventures – Florida’s management has assumed operational, management and governance control in accordance with the terms of the Shareholder Agreement dated May 20, 2011.  For accounting purposes, Eco Ventures – Florida is the accounting acquirer and / or the surviving entity.  Accordingly, the historical financial statements are those of Eco Ventures – Florida, the accounting acquirer, immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger.  The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with this transaction.

 

On or about April 18, 2014, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with Petlife Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Petlife”) and the shareholders of Petlife Corporation (the “Shareholders”) for the exchange of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Petlife. These shares of Petlife are being exchanged for 40,000,000 fully paid non-assessable shares of the Company or 80% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

 

The closing of the Share Exchange Agreement is conditioned upon certain, limited customary representations and warranties as well as conditions to close such as the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company being limited to 50,000,000 issued and outstanding post-closing. Following the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement the Company intends to continue the Company’s and Petlife’s historical businesses and proposed businesses. The Company’s historical business and operations will continue independently through a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary.

Estimates

Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales will be recorded.

 

ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. There was no effect on implementing ASC 605-25 on the Company’s financial position and results of operations, since the Company has not started generating revenue.

Cash

Cash

 

The Company considers cash to consist of cash on hand and temporary investments having an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings.  During the year ended August 31, 2013, all acquired property and equipment was determined to be impaired and the total cost of $766,367 was charged to operations.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 360-10-15-3, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets,” which established a “primary asset” approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used.  Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.  Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  For the year ended August 31, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $766,367. The impairment loss represents the excess of the carrying amounts of the Company’s property and equipmentover their fair value, which was determined on the basis of their liquidation value of the related assets. CTV was significantly behind in paying its rent on its Florida Facilities. During the year ended August 31, 2013, the landlord, a related party, waived all past due rents and released the Company from any further obligation under the lease. The Company credited to equity all accrued past due rent totaling $386,255.

 

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes consist primarily of timing differences such as deferred officers’ compensation and stock based compensation accounting.

Net Loss per Common Share, basic and diluted

Net Loss per Common Share, basic and diluted

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”) specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic loss per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A and Series B preferred stock have been excluded as common stock equivalents in the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive on the computation. Diluted shares outstanding were 570,730 shares as of November 30, 2013.

Stock based compensation

Stock based compensation

 

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires that all share-based payments to both employees and non-employees be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.  

 

As of November 30, 2013, the Company did not have any issued or outstanding stock options.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions.  At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

Research and Development

Research and Development

 

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company did not incur any research and development expenses from November 9, 2010 (date of inception) through November 30, 2013. 

Reliance on Key Personnel and Consultants

Reliance on Key Personnel and Consultants

 

The Company has one full-time employee and no part-time employees.  Additionally, the Company has consultants performing various specialized services.  The Company is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of these current executive officers, employees and key consultants. The loss of any of the senior management or key consultants could significantly and negatively impact the business until adequate replacements can be identified and put in place.

Fair Value

Fair Value

 

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying amount reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet for accounts payable and accrued expenses, advances and notes payable approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Reclassification

Reclassification

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' data to conform to the current period's presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income or losses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability to the Company. Where it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequence of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financials properly reflect the change.
