Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Company Operations:

 

The accompanying financial statements of FCCC, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

 

The Company has limited operations and is actively seeking merger, acquisition or business combination opportunities with an operating business or other financial transaction opportunities. Until a transaction is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly, during such period, the Company does not expect to achieve sufficient income to offset its operating expenses, resulting in operating losses that may require the Company to use and thereby reduce its cash balance.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

 

The Company has defined cash as including cash on hand and cash in interest bearing and non-interest bearing operating bank accounts. Highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company maintains cash balances at a number of financial institutions. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 at each institution. At various times throughout the year, cash balances may exceed FDIC limits.  At March 31, 2012 there were no uninsured amounts.

 

Estimates:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.

 

Dividends

 

The Company may or may not pay cash dividends or make other distributions in the future depending on a number of factors.  The Company may, however, pay a cash dividend or other distribution as part of a merger, acquisition, reverse merger or business combination transaction or if the Board of Directors deems it advisable for  the benefit of all shareholders at any time.

 

Income Taxes:

 

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes as prescribed by the FASB Accounting Standard Codification, (“ASC”), 740 (Income Taxes) This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax return and financial statement reporting bases of certain assets and liabilities.

 

Advertising:

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense from operations was approximately $1,525 and $700 for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Earnings Per Common Share:

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 260 ( “Earnings Per Share”. ASC 260 simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) and makes them comparable to international EPS standards. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted. Net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Basic and diluted loss per common share was calculated using the following number of shares:

 

    2012     2011  
             
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding     1,561,022       1,561,022  
                 

 

Stock Based Compensation:

 

The company adopted “Share-Based Payment” FASB ASC 718 (ASC 718 requires expense for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.  For the Company, this statement was effective as of April 1, 2006.  The Company adopted the modified prospective method, under which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date.  The modified prospective method recognizes compensation cost based on the requirements of ASC 718 for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and, for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date that remain unvested on the effective date.  The Company does not expect to record any significant expenses under ASC 718 for options currently outstanding.  However, the amount of expense recorded under ASC 718 will depend upon the number of options granted in the future and their valuation.

  

Revenue and Cost Recognition

 

The Company’s only source of revenue is interest income earned from the money market account held at  a financial institution. This income is recognized at the end of each month.

 

The Company has filed all income tax returns since inception.

 

Common Stock Warrants:

 

In June 2003, the Company issued 5-year Warrants (subject to registration rights under certain circumstances) to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at a price of $1.00 per share, at a purchase price of $.01 per Warrant. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment as defined. The warrant exercise price was adjusted to $.50 per share as a result of the payment of a $.50 per share cash dividend during September 2003. No warrants were issued during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

In April 2008 and May 2008, respectively, all outstanding Warrants at that time (200,000) were exercised through the cashless exercise provisions of the Warrants resulting in 53,600 and 56,140 common shares being issued to Bernard Zimmerman, President and Martin Cohen, then a Director of the Company respectively or their affiliates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

 

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

 

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

  

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-01, Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash-a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force,(Topic 505). This Accounting Standards Update clarifies that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively and is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 (Equity and Earning Per Share). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-01 on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
