ABOUT OUR COMPANY

 

As used herein, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our,” or “us,” refer to American Business Holdings Inc. together with its subsidiaries.

 

We were incorporated as a Delaware Corporation on September 9, 2004 as a holding vehicle to own and control a textile and plastic packaging company in Central and East Africa. On September 12, 2004, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange in which we purchased all of the outstanding membership shares in Tissakin Ltd., a Democratic Republic of Congo Corporation, so that Tissakin Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary.

 

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Tissakin Ltd., we are a principal manufacturer of bags for packaging agricultural products in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The bags are made of jute and polypropylene and polyethylene granules. Sixty-five percent of the jute is purchased from local sources and 35% is purchased from Bangladesh. Most polypropylene and polyethylene is purchased from South Africa because of favorable freight charges. Some granules are purchased from Belgium, Spain, France, Malaysia, South Korea, Brazil, Indonesia and the United States when supplies meet our quality and price standards.

 

Tissakin was established in 1952 as Tissaco by FICO (Financing and Commercialization of Fiber), a Belgium holding company that invested heavily in what was then the Belgian Congo. The company’s name was changed to Tissakin after 1960 when the Belgian Congo gained independence. Tissakin expanded its operations in 1997 by purchasing plant, property and equipment, and establishing a factory for making packaging bags from natural jute fiber, polypropylene and polyethylene. In 2000, Tissakin purchased a polypropylene/polyethylene recycling machine from Taiwan, and its installation has significantly reduced manufacturing costs.

 

Syed Irfan Husain serves as our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Husain is also our principal shareholder. We currently have no employees.

 

There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate applying for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms apart. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.

 

We presently maintain our principal offices at 1223 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 851, Santa Monica CA 90403.

 

Terms of the offering

 

The selling shareholders named in this prospectus are offering all of the shares of common stock offered through this prospectus. The selling stockholders are selling shares of common stock covered by this prospectus for their own account.

 

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of these shares. The offering price of $0.20 was determined by the price shares were sold to our shareholders in a private placement memorandum and is a fixed price at which the selling security holders may sell their shares until our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, at which time the shares may be sold at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling security holders.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus and any other filings we may make with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in the future before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. Please note that throughout this prospectus, the words “we”, “our” or “us” refer to us and not to the selling stockholders.

 

AS DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS INCREASES, WE MUST EXPAND OUR PRODUCTION CAPACITY TO MEET SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS. IF WE DO NOT EXPAND OUR PRODUCTION, WE RISK LOSS OF MARKET SHARE.

 

As agricultural output increases in the DRC, demand for our products increases commensurately. Based on recent historical trends, we estimate that demand for our products will grow at a rate of 20% per year for at least the next 5-8 years and then will taper off to about 3-4% for the foreseeable future. The reasoning behind this estimation is that it will take at least 20 years before the agricultural output in the DRC arrives at its peak. The past years of neglect and civil wars have taken their toll on the agricultural sector. But with the infusion of direct monetary and material aid, the prospects for the agricultural sector look more promising than at any time in this nation’s history.

 

However, in order to meet such demand, we believe that we need to double our existing capacity to at least 30 million bags per year. If we fail to increase capacity and therefore fail to meet demand, our customers may purchase their requirements from our competitors, thus eroding our market share and reducing our revenue. If our revenues decrease, we could be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate certain product and service development programs.

FLUCTUATIONS IN THE PRICE OF RAW MATERIALS OR SHORTAGES OF SUPPLY COULD REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.

 

We purchase 65% of our jute from local sources and 35% from Bangladesh. Most polypropylene and polyethylene is purchased from South Africa because of favorable freight charges. Some granules are purchased from Belgium, Spain, France, Malaysia, South Korea, Brazil, Indonesia and the United States when supplies meet Tissakin’s quality and price standards.

 

We are exposed to any volatility in the prices of our raw materials. Factors which may cause volatility in our raw material prices include:

 

Shortages of raw materials due to increasing demand, e.g., from growing uses or new uses;

 

 

Capacity constraints, e.g., due to construction delays, strike action or involuntary shutdowns;

 

 

The general level of business and economic activity; and

 

 

The direct or indirect effect of governmental regulation.

 

Our operating margins may decrease if we cannot pass on increased raw material prices to customers. Even in periods during which raw material prices decline, we may suffer decreasing operating profit margins if raw material price reductions occur at a slower rate than decreases in the selling prices of our products.

 

WE MUST COMPLY WITH NUMEROUS ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS AND REGULATIONS, WHICH COULD INVOLVE SUBSTANTIAL COSTS. IF WE FAIL TO COMPLY, WE MAY HAVE TO PAY LARGE PENALTIES

 

We must comply with various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations in the DRC. We cannot assure you that our environmental or health and safety liabilities and costs will not increase materially in the future and cause our cash flow to decrease. In addition, we cannot predict what environmental or health and safety legislation or regulations will be enacted in the future or how existing or future laws or regulations will be enforced, administered or interpreted. We also cannot predict the amount of future expenditures that may be required in order to comply with these environmental or health and safety laws or regulations.

 

WE HAVE SEVERAL CUSTOMERS THAT ACCOUNT FOR A LARGE PORTION OF OUR NET SALES. THE LOSS OF, OR SIGNIFICANT DECLINE IN OUR SALES TO, ANY OF OUR LARGE CUSTOMERS COULD CAUSE OUR NET SALES TO DECREASE

 

Several customers account for over 50% of our net sales as follows: Midema, a flour company accounts for 15% of our net sales; Sucriere, a sugar company accounts for 15% of our net sales, Cilu, a cement Company, accounts for 10% of our net sales, and CDI, an agricultural company accounts for 10% of our net sales. In addition, approximately 25% of our net sales is derived from retail sales to the general public. The remaining 25% is comprised of aid organizations such as World Food Program and CTB, which is the Belgium Government aid organization. We do not operate under a long-term supply contract with any of our customers. The loss of any of our top customers could cause a material decrease in our net sales attributable to such product lines.

 

THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR OPERATIONS IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO. SUCH RISKS COULD AFFECT US BY CAUSING DELAYS OR LOSSES IN THE SUPPLY OR DELIVERY OF RAW MATERIALS AND PRODUCTS AS WELL AS INCREASED SECURITY COSTS, INSURANCE PREMIUMS AND OTHER EXPENSES.

 

 

3

 



 

 

Our subsidiary operates in the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”). Conditions such as the uncertainties associated with war, terrorist activities, epidemics, pandemics or political instability in any of the countries in which we operate could affect us by causing delays or losses in the supply or delivery of raw materials and products as well as increased security costs, insurance premiums and other expenses. Moreover, changes in laws or regulations, such as unexpected changes in regulatory requirements could increase the cost of doing business in these regions. Any of these conditions may have an effect on our business and financial results as a whole and may result in volatile current and future prices for our common shares.

 

We face additional risks in the form of political instability, political upheaval, government changes, etc. etc. Our sources of raw material are also from various countries so the risk of rupture to our supplies is minimal. For instance, we buy our raw material from South Africa, Malaysia, UK, India, Taiwan, Brazil, Thailand, Spain and South Korea and Indonesia and the United States. We’re not tied contractually to any one supplier and deal only on whoever will supply us at the best price when we buy.

 

BECAUSE WE DEPEND ON OUTSIDE PRODUCTION SOURCES, THE FUTURE RELIABILITY OF SUCH SOURCES IS UNCERTAIN. IF SUCH SOURCES BECOME UNRELIABLE, WE MAY FORCED TO FIND ALTERNATIVE SOURCES WHICH MAY BE MORE COSTLY AND THEREFORE MAY IMPACT OUR MARGINS.

 

Our polypropylene capacity of approximately 5 million bags a year is insufficient to satisfy the demands of the DRC and the bordering countries of Angola, Congo-Brazzaville, and others. Because of our inability to produce sufficient product to meet the demands of our customers, we must currently import finished polypropylene bags from China and India. We cannot assure you that these sources of production will be reliable or that our dependence on such outside sources will not result in inefficiencies that could reduce our net income.

 

The increase in demand for bags in the Congo has outpacing our production capacity. To satisfy the market, we have had to import up to 250,000 polypropylene bags from China and 100,000 jute bags from India and Bangladesh. The imported bags do not affect Tissakin’s profit margins, as we would not be able to supply these bags with our current production capacity.

 

OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR, GATELY AND ASSOCIATES, LLC, IS NOT LICENSED TO PRACTICE IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THEREFORE IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IF WE DO NOT RETAIN AN INDEPENDENT AUDITOR THAT IS LICENSED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WE MAY HAVE LIABILITY FROM OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND STATE REGULATORS.

 

Gately & Associates, LLC, our independent auditor is not licensed in California. Since our headquarters are located in California it is possible that we may need to retain another firm which is licensed in the State. If we do not retain another independent auditor located in the State of California to review and audit our financial statement it is possible that there may be inaccuracies in our financial statements. In addition, we may face potential liability from shareholder suits and/or California regulators based on our using an auditor who is not licensed in the state where we have our principal headquarters. Gately & Associates, LLC has advised us that it in the process of registering to do business in the State of California.

 

SAYED IDRIS HUSAIN’S CONTROL MAY PREVENT YOU FROM CAUSING A CHANGE IN THE COURSE OF OUR OPERATIONS AND MAY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

Sayed Idris Husain beneficially owns approximately 78.6% of our common stock. Accordingly, for as long as Idris Husain continues to own more than 50% of our common stock, he will be able to elect our entire board of directors, control all matters that require a stockholder vote (such as mergers, acquisitions and other business combinations) and exercise a significant amount of influence over our management and operations. Therefore, regardless of the number of our common shares sold, your ability to cause a change in the course of our operations is eliminated. As such, the value attributable to the right to vote is limited. This concentration of ownership could result in a reduction in value to the common shares you own because of the ineffective voting power, and could have the effect of preventing us from undergoing a change of control in the future.

YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO LIQUIDATE YOUR INVESTMENT SINCE THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT A PUBLIC MARKET WILL DEVELOP FOR OUR COMMON STOCK OR THAT OUR COMMON STOCK WILL EVER BE APPROVED FOR TRADING ON A RECOGNIZED EXCHANGE.

 

There is no established public trading market for our securities. After this document is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we intend to seek a market maker to apply for a quotation on the OTC BB in the United States. Our shares are not and have not been listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system. We cannot assure you that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with the OTC BB, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved or that a regular trading market will develop or that if developed, will be sustained. In the absence of a trading market, an investor may be unable to liquidate its investment, which will result in the loss of your investment.

 

THE OFFERING PRICE OF THE SHARES IS BASED ON THE PRICE SHAREHOLDERS WERE SOLD TO IN A PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING CONDUCTED IN DECEMBER 2004, AND THEREFORE SHOULD NOT BE USED AS AN INDICATOR OF THE FUTURE MARKET PRICE OF THE SECURITIES. THEREFORE, THE OFFERING PRICE BEARS NO RELATIONSHIP TO THE ACTUAL VALUE OF THE COMPANY, AND MAY MAKE OUR SHARES DIFFICULT TO SELL.

 

Since our shares are not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of $0.20 for the shares of common stock was arbitrarily determined based on our private placement offering conducted in December 2004 The facts considered in determining the offering price were our financial condition and prospects, our limited operating history and the general condition of the securities market. The offering price is not an indication of and is not based upon our actual value. The offering price bears no relationship to the book value, assets or earnings of our company or any other recognized criteria of value. The offering price should not be regarded as an indicator of the future market price of the securities.

 

FUTURE SALES BY OUR STOCKHOLDERS MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE AND OUR ABILITY TO RAISE FUNDS IN NEW STOCK OFFERINGS

 

Sales of our common stock in the public market following this offering could lower the market price of our common stock. Sales may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable or at all. Of the 8,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding as of July 3, 2006, 245,000 shares are, or will be, freely tradable without restriction upon the effective date of this registration statement, unless held by our “affiliates”. The remaining 7,955,000 shares of common stock, which will be held by existing stockholders, including the officers and directors, are “restricted securities” and may be resold in the public market only if registered or pursuant to an exemption from registration. Some of these shares may be resold in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

WE ARE IN AN INTENSELY COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY AND ANY FAILURE TO TIMELY IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN COULD DIMINISH OR SUSPEND OUR DEVELOPMENT AND POSSIBLY CEASE OUR OPERATIONS.

 

Our industry is highly competitive, and has few barriers to entry. We can provide no assurance that additional competitors will not enter into the industry. There are other companies that currently offer similar services that have established user bases that are significantly larger than ours, and that have access to greater capital. If we are unable to efficiently and effectively institute our business plan as a result of intense competition or a saturated market, we may not be able to continue the development and enhancement of our web site and become profitable.

 

“PENNY STOCK” RULES MAY MAKE BUYING OR SELLING OUR COMMON STOCK DIFFICULT

 

Trading in our securities is subject to the “penny stock” rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors, must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market. In addition,

 

5

 



 

broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker- dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning the transfer of penny stocks. These regulations require broker- dealers to:

 

o

Make a suitability determination prior to selling a penny stock to the purchaser;

o

Receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction; and

o

Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.

 

These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

 

OUR STOCK PRICE MAY DECREASE DUE TO OUR MARKET CAP BASED ON THE FUTURE ISSUANCES OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON OR PREFERRED STOCK.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of five hundred million shares of common stock. As of July 3, 2006, we had 8,200,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As such, our Board of Directors has the power, without shareholder approval, to issue up to 491,800,000 shares of common stock. The issuance of such shares will dilute the shares held by the current shareholders. In addition, our articles of incorporation also provide that we are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock with a par value of $0.001per share. “Blank Check” means that the rights and preferences of the preferred shares have not been determined. As of the date of this prospectus, there are no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

 

However, our Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by the shareholders, to issue from time to time the preferred stock and with such relative rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions that the Board may determine. Any issuance of preferred stock will dilute the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. If preferred shares are issued it may impact our decision to issue dividends since this may increase the number of dividends that we would be issuing. In addition, it is possible that the Board of Directors may determine that the preferred shares will have rights and preferences, including dividend rights, over the common stockholders.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The selling stockholders are selling shares of common stock covered by this prospectus for their own account. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of these shares. We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling security holders.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

Since our shares are not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of the shares of common stock was arbitrarily determined. The offering price was determined by the price shares were sold to our shareholders in a private placement memorandum pursuant to Regulation D Rule 506 of the Securities Act of 1933 which was completed in December 2004.

 

The offering price of the shares of our common stock has been determined arbitrarily by us and will not necessarily bear any relationship to our book value, assets, past operating results, financial condition or any other established criteria of value. Although our common stock is not listed on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB), we attempt to locate a market maker and to file to obtain a listing on the (OTCBB) concurrently with the filing of this prospectus. In order to be quoted on the Bulletin Board, a market maker must file an application on our behalf in order to make a market for our common stock. Although there are no requirements for listing on the OTCBB, there is no assurances that our common stock will be approved to trade on the OTCBB. We have had discussions with one market maker regarding the filing of our application for trading on the OTCBB. However, there is no assurance that our common stock, even if it becomes listed on the OTCBB, will trade at market prices in excess of the initial public offering price as prices for the common stock in any public market which may develop will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market for the common stock, investor perception of us and general economic and market conditions.

DILUTION

 

The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be limited dilution to our existing shareholders.

 

PENNY STOCK CONSIDERATIONS

 

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). Additionally, securities are considered penny stocks if (i) the issuer’s net tangible assets (i.e., total assets less intangible assets and liabilities) is less than $2,000,000, if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years, or $5,000,000, if the issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years; or, (ii) if the issuer’s average revenue is below $6,000,000 for the last three years. Our common stock will remain a “penny stock” so long as we maintain a listing on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”).

 

Because our stock is a penny stock, a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, is required to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about our stock and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for our stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The broker-dealer must also make a special written determination that our stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for our stock.

 

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

The shares being offered for resale by the selling stockholders consist of the 245,000 shares of our common stock held by 44 shareholders. Such shareholders include the holders of 200,000 shares sold in our Regulation D Rule 506 offering which was completed in December 2004. We are also registering (i) 15,000 shares held by Syed Idris Husain, our Director and Managing Principal; (ii) 15,000 shares held by Syed Imran Husain; and, (iii) 15,000 shares held by Syed Irfan Husain, our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman. These shares were issued to these individuals in accordance with the share exchange agreement between us and Tissaken Ltd.

 

The following table sets forth the name of the selling stockholders, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each of the selling stockholders as of July 3, 2006 and the number of shares of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders. The shares being offered hereby are being registered to permit public secondary trading, and the selling stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. However, the selling stockholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of such shares nor are the selling stockholders obligated to sell any shares immediately upon effectiveness of this prospectus. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the selling stockholders.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION

FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Delaware Statutes and our Bylaws. Under the Delaware Statutes, we have the power to indemnify, to the greatest allowable extent permitted under the Laws of Delaware, directors, officers, employees or other agents of our company against all damages, expenses and any other amounts actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any proceeding arising by reason of the fact that a person is or was a director, officer, employee or other agent of our company.

ORGANIZATION WITHIN LAST FIVE YEARS

 

We were incorporated as a Delaware Corporation on September 9, 2004 as a holding vehicle to own and control textile and plastic packaging companies in Central and East Africa. On September 12, 2004, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange in which we purchased all of the outstanding membership shares in Tissakin Ltd., a Democratic Republic of Congo Corporation, so that Tissakin Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary. Now, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Tissakin Ltd., we are the principal manufacturer of bags for packaging agricultural products in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

General

 

We were incorporated as a Delaware Corporation on September 9, 2004 as a holding vehicle to own and control textile and plastic packaging companies in Central and East Africa. On September 12, 2004, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange in which we purchased all of the outstanding membership shares in Tissakin Ltd., a Democratic Republic of Congo Corporation, so that Tissakin Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary. Now, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Tissakin Ltd., (“Tissakin”) we are the principal manufacturer of bags for packaging agricultural products in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

 

Tissakin was established in 1952 as Tissaco by FICO (Financing and Commercialization of Fiber), a Belgian holding company that invested heavily in what was then the Belgian Congo. The company’s name was changed to Tissakin after 1960 when the Belgian Congo gained independence. Tissakin expanded its operations in 1997 by purchasing plant, property and equipment, and establishing a factory for making packaging bags from natural jute fiber, polypropylene and polyethylene. In 2000, Tissakin purchased a polypropylene/polyethylene recycling machine from Taiwan, and its installation has significantly reduced manufacturing costs.

 

Products and Services

 

In the DRC, Tissakin is the principle manufacturer of bags for packaging agricultural products. Tissakin’s bags are made of jute, and from polypropylene and polyethylene granules. Tissakin purchases 65% of its jute from local sources and 35% from Bangladesh. Most polypropylene and polyethylene is purchased from South Africa because of favorable freight charges. Some granules are purchased from Belgium, Spain, France, Malaysia, South Korea, Brazil, Indonesia and the United States.

 

12

 



 

 

Competition

 

International regulations require that coffee, cacao, and tobacco be packed and exported in jute bags. In this, Tissakin is the only jute factory in the DRC.

 

There is one other manufacturer of polypropylene bags in the DRC, however, Tissakin has a secured an advantageous market position because of brand recognition in the DRC. Competitive polypropylene bags are manufactured in China, India, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. However, such foreign-based manufacturers have been subject to interruptions in the supply-chain. Because Tissakin is a DRC company, it does not face the same uncertainties and risks associated with importing. Additionally, Tissakin’s pricing policy for its polypropylene bags is to match or better its competitors’ prices.

 

Tissakin established the polyethylene product line as a vertical integration to produce liners for use in its polypropylene bags. Over 70% of Tissakin’s polyethylene production becomes liners for Tissakin’s polypropylene bags; the remaining capacity is used to produce plastic bags for such established clients as the local hotels and other shopping marts.

 

Significant Clients

 

The following are Tissakin’s significant clients:

 

1.

Compagnie Sucriere de Kwilu Ngongo (CSKN), a Belgian owned local sugar producer with corporate offices in Brussels. CSKN buys nearly 30% of Tissakin’s annual production of bags.

2.

Midema is the largest flourmill in the DRC and is the second largest client of Tissakin. The Seaboard Corp., a US company with corporate offices in the vicinity of Washington, D.C, owns Midema.

3.

CILU, a Belgian-owned cement factory.

4.

CDI BWAMANDA, a Vatican-financed company dealing in agricultural products.

5.

Other clients of Tissakin include the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), UNHCR, and the European Community. All are important clients for Tissakin as there are numerous United Nations and EEC-sponsored agricultural programs in the DRC.

 

The above-mentioned customers buy over 60% of Tissakin’s production. The remaining production is sold to small local agricultural producers in various parts of the country as well as various agricultural projects sponsored by the Congolese Government under their National Service and Strategic Governmental Reserves programs. Unable to produce sufficient product to meet the demands of its customers, Tissakin must currently import finished polypropylene bags from China and India.

 

Suppliers

 

Tissakin maintains a strict policy not having any contractual agreements with any raw material suppliers. This gives us flexibility in terms of negotiating the best price and quality for our raw material with any supplier we chose.

 

Employees

 

Syed Irfan Husain, our President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer is our sole employee. However, our wholly owned subsidiary, Tissakin, employs 235 workers. From time to time, Tissakin also engages daily hires to help out with non-production related chores such as offloading raw material or other menial labor.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing in this prospectus.

The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We were incorporated as a Delaware Corporation on September 9, 2004 as a holding vehicle to own and control a textile and plastic packaging company in Central and East Africa. On September 12, 2004, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange in which we purchased all of the outstanding membership shares in Tissakin Ltd., a Democratic Republic of Congo Corporation, so that Tissakin Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary.

 

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Tissakin Ltd., we are the principal manufacturer of bags for packaging agricultural products in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The bags are made of jute and polypropylene and polyethylene granules. The comparative results of business activity discussed are that of American Business Holdings Inc. and its subsidiary, Tissakin for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the quarters ended March  31, 2006 and March 31, 2005.

 

The demand for our products has been growing every year for the last several years. There is substantial amount of aid that is being donated to the D.R. Congo from institutions such as the World Bank, International Monetary Fund as well as direct aid from USA and the European Community. A large percent of this aid is for agricultural and infrastructure projects. Tissakin, being the largest and oldest agricultural packaging company in the D. R. Congo, is in an enviable position to benefit directly from the increased agricultural production that will derive from this aid. We feel there’s an urgent need to initially double our capacity from a production of 15 million bags per year to 30 million. As the road network is getting re-established, we find that more and more of our products are being exported to the neighboring countries such as Angola and Central African Republic. Therefore, our ability to achieve our business objectives is contingent upon our success in raising additional capital to enter new markets and then rely on cash flows from operations for future growth.

 

Results of Operations

 

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

 

Gross Revenues

 

Gross revenues increased from $3,586,850 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $3,797,338 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of $210,488. The increase is due to an increase in overall sales of our main product line, polypropylene bags, as well as plastic bags. There has been a substantial increase in agricultural output in the D.R. Congo over the last several years and Tissakin, being one of producers of Polypropylene bags, is in a good position to take advantage of the overall agricultural growth.

 

Total Expenses

 

Total expenses increased from $3,239,487 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $3,498,253 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of $258,766. The increase in expenses was a result of an increase in total bags sold and there was also a slight increase in the prices of raw material. Although worldwide prices of our raw material, Polypropylene, went up, the overall increase in demand for bags has also increased thus absorbing the overall net affect of the increased costs.

 

General and Administrative expenses, which includes general office expenses, travel and entertainment, and professional fees, decreased from $297,201 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $251,483 for the year ended December 31, 2005, a decrease of $45,718. The decrease in costs and expenses for the period were attributable to a decrease in travel & entertainment expenses and professional fees.

 

14

 



 

 

 

Net Income

 

In the year ended December 31, 2005 we had net profit from operations of $25,761 compared to net profit of $ 20,465 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in profit is attributed directly to the increase in revenue and decrease in general and administrative expenses. Management has reviewed and continues to review all revenue and expense items with an effort to streamline the business, factors listed above describe the area that attribute to the recognition of income for the year. Due to the increase in our raw material prices and the increase in costs at the port of Matadi, the Management at Tissakin felt it important to review all aspects of the business objectives with a view to further streamlining our operations. Management has never been complacent in terms of remaining competitive. Our competition is not only with the producers in the nations bordering the D.R. Congo but more so with the India and China. As such, streamlining our costs is a logical step towards maintaining our competitive advantage against imports and any future competitors. Keeping a close eye on our costs is a daily process for the Management to the extent that every expenditure, large or small, is scrutinized before being acted upon.

 

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005

 

Gross Revenues

 

Gross revenues increased from $824,564 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 to $857,636 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of 4% or $33,072. The increase is related to an increase in selling price and a continued increase in our products as a result of the agricultural output of the country increasing which resulted in an increase in revenue from the quarter ending March 31, 2006.  

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of Revenue decreased from $755,549 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 to $751,221 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, a decrease of $4,328. The decrease is related to an increase in production efficiency or less wastage as a result of training our workforce a better and further supervision to decrease waste of raw material.  

 

General and Administrative expenses which includes general office expenses, travel and entertainment, and professional fees increased from $77,653 three months ended March 31, 2005, to $82,486 three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of 6% or $4, 833. This increase was due mostly to the extra travel required in order to set up a new production unit of blow molding.

 

Net Income

 

For three months ended March 31, 2006, we had net income of $19,620 compared to net loss of $11,005 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The Net Income was a result of the Company increase in profitability due to an increase in sales as a result of an Increase In our products and a reduction in cost of sales as a result of closer supervision to eliminate waste of raw material.  

 

Plan of Operations

 

During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the further development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:

 

We will focus on striking more sales agreements. Based on the increase in our market, we believe we should expand our operations in related plastic fields as well as continue to reinvest in our core business of sack production. We have identified two areas for investment/expansion.

 

The first area we have identified is our core business of sack production. Based on the historical trends over the last few years, we estimate the demand for our products to grow at a rate of 20% per year for at least the next 5-8 years and then will taper off to about 3-4% for the foreseeable future. The reasoning behind this estimation is that it will take at least 20 years before the agricultural output in the DRC arrives at its peak. The past years of neglect and civil

 

15

 



 

wars have taken their toll on the agricultural sector. But with the infusion of direct monetary and material aid, the prospects for the agricultural sector look more promising than at any time in this nation’s history.

 

We need to keep pace with the increasing demand for bags as the agricultural output increases in the D.R. Congo. If we allow demand to surpass our ability to supply, we risk competition from imports from India and China. In order to meet increasing demand, we believe that we need to double our existing capacity to at least 30 million bags per year.

 

In order to achieve this objective, we will need to purchase 6-8 looms at an approximate cost of $150,000. We will also need to hire an additional 100 workers. Our raw material consumption and cost will also rise but these costs will be offset by the increase in sales.

 

Another area we’ve identified for diversification is in blow-molding. There’s a large demand for 1-4 liter, 4-liter, 5-liter, 20-liter, and 30-liter plastic jerry cans. In Oct 2005, Tissakin already set up a small scale project to test the market with Taiwanese machines. In its first few months of operation, we’ve managed to procure a contract to supply the European oil company, TOTAL, with 1-liter and 4-liter jerry cans and the local market with our own model of 5-liter jerry cans. With the order from TOTAL, Tissakin is already over its capacity. Towards, the middle of 2006, we’ll have to double the capacity of our blow molding section.

 

The second area for investment/expansion is plastic containers. We are forecasting an increase in the production of palm oil in the DRC. Palm oil is the main ingredient in all Congolese cooking and is packaged in 5-liter plastic “jerry cans.”  There is also an increasing need for potable drinking water for the population. Many companies are now in the business of providing clean drinking water locally. Both of these products need to be packed in 5-liter containers for easy handling. The management at Tissakin has already set up a primary production unit for the 5-liter jerry cans and besides supplying to the local companies producing oil and water, we provide 1 liter and 4 liter jerry cans to a European oil company, Total/Fina. We feel that the existing capacity is not enough to supply the local oil and water producers as well as Total/Fina and will have to increase the capacity in 2006.

 

Our machines can make up to 5-liter jerry cans which are what the local market absorbs the most. A blow molding machine of 5-liter jerry cans can produce bottles of 500ml to jerry cans of 5-liter. There are no changes required to the machine. The changes are only in the mold in that a 1-liter mold is smaller than a 5-liter mold and thus the changes are mostly in cycle time and the adaptations that come incorporated in the mold to allow a machine of 5-liter to produce a smaller item. The cycle time refers to the time required to produce one unit. The cycle time for a 5-liter jerry can may be around 45 seconds whereas for a 1-liter, it may be around 15 seconds. Our machines also have a built in quality control device which allows us to not only adjust the cycle time but also to pick the areas of the mold where we want to inject more material or less.

 

In order to increase our capacity, we will attempt to raise capital from sale of our common stock, business lines of credit, and loans from investors, shareholders or management, and/or joint venture partners. At present, we have no financing agreements with any institutions. Management will use its best efforts to raise the additional funds carry out the planned program but there is significant risk that we may not secure the necessary funding.

 

Capital Resources and Liquidity   

 

We raised $40,000 in a private placement in December 2004 and maintained a cash balance at March 31, 2006 of $490,213 These funds as well as our business activity will allow us to have positive cash flows for the current year.

 

We have historically satisfied our cash requirements through revenues, short term financings, and issuance of common stock for cash. We anticipate that cash requirements will continue to increase as we continue to expend resources to build infrastructure, pursue additional markets, and establish support and administrative organizations. At present, we have no lines of credit or any financing agreements in place. The company believes that any long term or short term liquidity needs are sufficiently met by our cash balance in the company. We intend to fund any material expenses for capital expenditures with our cash balance.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

 

We currently use the offices of management at 1223 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 851, Santa Monica CA 90403. This office space is leased to us for $500 per month on a month to month basis. We believe that this space is sufficient and adequate to operate our current business.

 

We also own property, plant and equipment located in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in the City of Kinshasa.

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

On September 12, 2004, we completed a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange in which we purchased all 216,000 outstanding membership shares in Tissakin Ltd., a Democratic Republic of Congo Corporation, so that Tissakin Ltd. became our wholly owned subsidiary. In exchange for the 216,000 shares, we issued a total of 8,000,000 shares to the Tissakin shareholders. Of this amount, 6,448,000 shares were issued to Syed Idris Husain, 776,000 shares were issued to Syed Irfan Husain, and 776,000 shares were issued to Syed Imran Husain.

 

The Company valued shares in the share exchange agreement based on the value of the subsidiary prior to a capital raise for the Company. Both parties in the Share Exchange Agreement are similar shareholders and exchanged shares; therefore no valuation allowance was necessary. If there had been outside shareholders with this transaction, then we would have valued the transaction differently; however, this is not the case and it’s a simple Exchange of Shares therefore there is no need to revalue the transaction.

 

Syed Idris Husain is the father of Syed Irfan Husain and Syed Imran Husain.

 

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

No Public Market for Common Stock

 

There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate applying for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms apart. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

As of July 3, 2006, we had 44 registered shareholders.

 

Rule 144

 

As of July 3, 2006, the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange dated September 12, 2004 between us and Tissakin, Ltd. are eligible for sale to the public in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act. The ownership of these 8,000,000 shares is as follows: 6,448,000 shares of our common stock are owned by Sayed Idris Husain; (ii) 776,000 shares of our common stock are owned by Sayed Imran Husain; and, (iii) the 776,000 shares of our common stock are owned by Sayed Ifran Husain

 

In addition, the 200,000 shares held by 41 investors who purchased shares pursuant to our private placement pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D completed in December 2004, are eligible for sale to the public in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act.

 

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company’s common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed 1% of the number of shares of the company’s common stock then outstanding which, in our case, would equal approximately 82,000 shares as of the date of this prospectus.

 

 

17

 



 

 

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company. Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company’s affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

 

Dividends

 

Since inception we have not paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock, when issued pursuant to this offering. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future.

 

Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

 

Stock Option Grants

 

As of July 3, 2006, we have not granted any stock options.

 

Registration Rights

 

We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or to any other persons.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

 

Industry:

American Business Holding Corporation (the Company) was incorporated on February 3, 1999 in the State of Nevada with its resident agent and registered office in Carson City, Nevada. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31, a calendar year. On July 1, 2002 the Company commenced operations with the acquisition of Tissakin Ltd. (the Subsidiary). The Parent Company issued 8,000,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the 216,000 outstanding shares of the Subsidiary.

 

The Subsidiary was incorporated in 1947 at Kinshasa, the then Belgian Congo under the name Tissaco Ltd. During the year 1960 the name was changed to Tissakin Ltd. The Subsidiary is engaged in the manufacturing and sale of bags for mainly agricultural packaging in the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1998. The Subsidiary is the principal manufacturer of bags for agricultural packaging in a country that produces coffee, cacao, manioc, rice, sugar, maize, corn flour as well as tea and tobacco. The country’s climate is tropical, yet mild, which allows for continuous agricultural production throughout the year.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers cash on hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions which have original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

 

Functional Currency:

All amounts in the Company’s financial statements and related footnotes are stated in U.S. Dollars. The Company had no significant gains or losses from foreign currency transactions and no material adjustments to the financial statements for translation adjustments. The functional currency of the Company is U.S. Dollars, but the Company does keep minimal amounts in the local currency for transactions on a day to day basis in a country that uses U.S. Dollars as well as its currency. The Company reviews its compliance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) n° 52 on a quarterly basis.

 

Basis of Accounting:

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Revenues and expenses associated with the manufacture of packaging and sale are accounted for as revenue and expense when sold. No extended warranties exist.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Accounting Acquirer - Prior to the acquisition of the Subsidiary, the Company was a non-operating corporation with nominal assets in the form of cash. The owners and management of the Subsidiary, a private operating company, have operating control of the Company as a result of the transaction. Therefore, this transaction is a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination, in the form of a share exchange. That is, the transaction is equivalent to the issuance of stock by a private company, the Parent, for the stock of the subsidiary which resulted in a re-capitalization of the Parent Company. The accounting is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except no goodwill or other intangible assets are recorded. Because the Subsidiary Company is essentially then treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes, the equity accounts are adjusted for the share exchange and carried forward. Prior accumulated deficits of the Parent Company are adjusted to additional paid in capital therefore carrying forward the accumulated deficit or earnings of the Subsidiary Company.

 

Revenue Recognition:

Revenues resulting from the manufacture of packaging are recognized when sold. A deferred revenue account has been established in the financial statements for deposits given in advance of sale.

 

Inventory:

Inventory is accounted for at cost determined at standard cost approximating the weighted average cost basis with direct labor, direct materials and production overhead applied.

 

Long-lived Assets:

Long lived assets, including property and equipment and certain intangible assets to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized if expected future cash flows of the related assets are less than their carrying values. Measurement of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

 

Property and Equipment are first recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets as follows:

 

Computer equipment

3 years

Vehicles

5 years

Furniture and fixtures

7 years

Plant and plant machinery

15 years

Office and industrial buildings

25 years

 

Maintenance and repairs, as incurred, are charged to expense. Betterments and renewals are capitalized in plant and equipment accounts. Cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to items replaced or retired are eliminated from the related accounts; gain or loss on the disposition thereof is included as income.

 

Income Taxes:

The Parent Company utilizes the asset and liability method to measure and record deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the future income tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Currently, the Company has no U.S. tax responsibility

to account for in the financial statements. To this date the Parent Company has had no operating activity and therefore has no tax liabilities or assets.

 

The Subsidiary Company records tax expense in accordance with the tax laws of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and has no other tax liabilities.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities. The carrying amount of long-term debt, if used, to banks approximates fair value based on interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of other financial instruments approximate their fair value because of short-term maturities, currently, the Company has no long-term obligations.

 

Earning Per Share:

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) n° 128, Earnings per Shares. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.

 

Concentrations of Risk:

Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of operating demand deposit accounts. The Company’s policy is to place its operating demand deposit accounts with high credit quality financial institutions. These financial institutions are not insured by the FDIC.

 

Only one customer represents more than 10% of the Company’s total sales.

 

2. Accounts Receivable:

 

Accounts receivable historically have been immaterial for bad debts to be accounted for by the Company. The Company’s management has decided that an allowance is not necessary.        

 

3. Inventories:

 

Inventories are accounted for under standard cost determined at approximate cost using the weighted average cost method, present their selves as follows:

 

 

4. Property, Plant and Equipment:

 

As of March 31, 2006, Property, plant and equipment are accounted for as follows:

(the Subsidiary) with the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of its common stock for all of the 216,000 outstanding shares of the Subsidiary.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Business Holding Corporation as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’equity, and cash flows for the twelve months ending December 31, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Business Holding Incorporated at December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the twelve months then ended in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

AMERICAN BUSINESS HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(See Independent Auditor’s Report)

 

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

 

Industry:

American Business Holding Corporation (the Company) was incorporated on February 3, 1999 in the State of Nevada with its resident agent and registered office in Carson City, Nevada. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31, a calendar year. On July 1, 2002 the Company commenced operations with the acquisition of Tissakin Ltd. (the Subsidiary). The Parent Company issued 8,000,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the 216,000 outstanding shares of the Subsidiary.

 

The Subsidiary was incorporated in 1947 at Kinshasa, the then Belgian Congo under the name Tissaco Ltd. During the year 1960 the name was changed to Tissakin Ltd. The Subsidiary is engaged in the manufacturing and sale of bags for mainly agricultural packaging in the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1998. The Subsidiary is the principal manufacturer of bags for agricultural packaging in a country that produces coffee, cacao, manioc, rice, sugar, maize, corn flour as well as tea and tobacco. The country’s climate is tropical, yet mild, which allows for continuous agricultural production throughout the year.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers cash on hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions which have original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

 

Functional Currency:

All amounts in the Company’s financial statements and related footnotes are stated in U.S. Dollars. The Company had no significant gains or losses from foreign currency transactions and no material adjustments to the financial statements for translation adjustments. The functional currency of the Company is U.S. Dollars, but the Company does keep minimal amounts in the local currency for transactions on a day to day basis in a country that uses U.S. Dollars as well as its currency. The Company reviews its compliance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) n° 52 on a quarterly basis.

 

Basis of Accounting:

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Revenues and expenses associated with the manufacture of packaging and sale are accounted for as revenue and expense when sold. No extended warranties exist.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 



AMERICAN BUSINESS HOLDING CORPORATION

AND SUBSIDIARY

 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(See Independent Auditor’s Report)

 

 

The Accounting Acquirer - Prior to the acquisition of the Subsidiary, the Company was a non-operating corporation with nominal assets in the form of cash. The owners and management of the Subsidiary, a private operating company, have operating control of the Company as a result of the transaction. Therefore, this transaction is a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination, in the form of a share exchange. That is, the transaction is equivalent to the issuance of stock by a private company, the Parent, for the stock of the subsidiary which resulted in a re-capitalization of the Parent Company. The accounting is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except no goodwill or other intangible assets are recorded. Because the Subsidiary Company is essentially then treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes, the equity accounts are adjusted for the share exchange and carried forward. Prior accumulated deficits of the Parent Company are adjusted to additional paid in capital therefore carrying forward the accumulated deficit or earnings of the Subsidiary Company.

 

Revenue Recognition:

Revenues resulting from the manufacture of packaging are recognized when sold. A deferred revenue account has been established in the financial statements for deposits given in advance of sale.

 

Inventory:

Inventory is accounted for at cost determined at standard cost approximating the weighted average cost basis with direct labor, direct materials and production overhead applied.

 

Long-lived Assets:

Long lived assets, including property and equipment and certain intangible assets to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized if expected future cash flows of the related assets are less than their carrying values. Measurement of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

 

Property and Equipment are first recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets as follows:

 

Computer equipment

3 years

Vehicles

5 years

Furniture and fixtures

7 years

Plant and plant machinery

15 years

Office and industrial buildings

25 years

 

Maintenance and repairs, as incurred, are charged to expense. Betterments and renewals are capitalized in plant and equipment accounts. Cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to items replaced or retired are eliminated from the related accounts; gain or loss on the disposition thereof is included as income.

 

Income Taxes:

The Parent Company utilizes the asset and liability method to measure and record deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the future income tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Currently, the Company has no U.S. tax responsibility

to account for in the financial statements. To this date the Parent Company has had no operating activity and therefore has no tax liabilities or assets.

 

The Subsidiary Company records tax expense in accordance with the tax laws of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and has no other tax liabilities.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities. The carrying amount of long-term debt, if used, to banks approximates fair value based on interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of other financial instruments approximate their fair value because of short-term maturities, currently, the Company has no long-term obligations.

 

Earning Per Share:

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) n° 128, Earnings per Shares. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.

 

Concentrations of Risk:

Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of operating demand deposit accounts. The Company’s policy is to place its operating demand deposit accounts with high credit quality financial institutions. These financial institutions are not insured by the FDIC.

 

Only one customer represents more than 10% of the Company’s total sales.

 

2. Accounts Receivable:

 

Accounts receivable historically have been immaterial for bad debts to be accounted for by the Company. The Company’s management has decided that an allowance is not necessary.        

 

3. Inventories:

 

Inventories are accounted for under standard cost determined at approximate cost using the weighted average cost method, present their selves as follows:

 

4. Property, Plant and Equipment:

 

As of December 31, 2005, Property, plant and equipment are accounted for as follows:

ITEM 24.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

Section 14A:3-5 of the Business Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that any corporation shall have the power to indemnify a corporate agent against his expenses and liabilities in connection with any proceeding involving the corporate agent by reason of his being or having been a corporate agent if such corporate agent acted in good faith and in the best interest of the corporation and with respect to any criminal proceeding, such corporate agent has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 

INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR PERSONS CONTROLLING THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, IT IS THE OPINION OF THESECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION THAT SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THE ACT AND IS THEREFORE UNENFORCEABLE.

 

Our certificate of incorporation provides in effect for the elimination of the liability of directors to the extent permitted by the DGCL.

 

We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

 

On September 12, 2004, we issued a total of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the following individuals: (i) 6,448,000 shares of our common stock to Sayed Idris Husain; (ii) 776,000 shares of our common stock to Sayed Imran Husain; and, (iii) 776,000 shares of our common stock to Sayed Ifran Husain. Such shares were issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange between us and Tissakin, Ltd. in which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership shares, consisting of 216,000 of such shares, of Tissakin, Ltd. and were issued in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

1

 



 

 

These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, each shareholder had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since each agreed to and received a share certificate bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.

 

In December 2004, we completed a Regulation D, Rule 506 Offering in which we issued a total of 245,000 shares of our common stock to a total of 41 investors at a price per share of $.20 for an aggregate offering price of $40,000.

 

The following sets forth the identity of the class of persons to whom we sold these shares and the amount of shares for each shareholder:

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
