Our Company

 

Signal Bay, Inc. ("we", "us", "our", the "Company" or the "Registrant") was originally incorporated in the State of New York, December 12, 1977 under the name 3171 Holding Corporation, on February 22, 1979 the name was changed to Electronomic Industries Corp. and on February 23, 1983 the name was changed to Quantech Electronics Corp. The company was reincorporated in the State of Colorado on December 15, 2003. On August 29, 2014, the Company completed a reverse merger with Signal Bay Research, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. Signal Bay Research Inc. was the surviving Company. In September 2014, the Company changed its name from Quantech Electronics Corp. to Signal Bay, Inc. The Company has selected September 30 as its fiscal year end. Signal Bay, Inc. is domiciled in the State of Colorado, and its corporate headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

 

William Waldrop and Lori Glauser purchased majority control of the Company from WB Partners as part of the reverse merger. Prior to the reverse merger, there were 35,956,777 common shares outstanding. William Waldrop and Lori Glauser purchased 28,811,933 (or 80% of the Common Stock) for $50,000. The merger between the Company and Signal Bay Research was finalized and closed contemporaneously with the share purchase. As part of this share purchase, Mr. Waldrop and Ms. Glauser become the officers and directors of the Company. Signal Bay Research was acquired through the issuance of 254,188,067 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. After the reverse William Waldrop and Lori Glauser individually each own 127,500,000 shares of Common Stock and 2,500,000 shares of Series B Preferred. Immediately prior to the reverse, neither William Waldrop nor Lori Glauser had any interest in the Company. Immediately after to the reverse, WB Partners owned less than 5% of the Common Stock.

Meet the needs for new industry information coverage

 

Given the speed of development, traditional research firms are not yet covering fast growing industries that have emerged during the last decade. As innovative new technologies and regulatory changes drive the formation of new markets and new businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, and regulators have a need for reliable and up-to-date information, research, and analysis. In response to this demand, we will gather, standardize, interpret, and sell this information to industry stakeholders.

 

 Provide actionable business intelligence to emerging, high-growth markets

 

We will gather, on an ongoing basis, data about the companies, people, events, regulations, products and technologies, related to high-growth industries. Our subject matter experts will then normalize, interpret, and analyze this data to provide actionable business intelligence such as trends, market projections, market gaps and weaknesses, competitive analyses, benchmarking, and new market opportunities. We initially expect to offer downloadable datasets, premium research reports, and industry newsletters.

 

Provide custom analysis and advisory services

 

Our subject matter experts and consultants will leverage the industry information gathered to assist industry stakeholders by providing them with specialized industry research, custom analysis and management consulting ranging from providing data to performing sophisticated strategic or competitive analyses.

 

Pursue compelling acquisitions and strategic partnerships.

 

We expect to continuously expand our industry capabilities and further expand our presence within the targeted emerging industries. These efforts can be supported with targeted acquisitions and partnerships with other data, news, and advisory services providers.

Deployment Strategy

 

Proposed Milestones to Implement Business Operations

 

The following milestones are based on estimates made by our management team. The working capital requirements and the projected milestones are approximations and are subject to adjustments. The Company projects it will need $800,000 over the next 12 months to expand. The Company expects to raise the $800,000 needed through debt financing or through a registered offering. Once the Company has obtained the financing it will begin executing on its expansion plan.

 

Phase 1: Website and Database Development (0 - 4 Months)

 

This phase consists of completing the build-out, testing, and initial release of the research site SignalBayResearch.com. The initial release will include the ability for users to view company, people, event, and jurisdictional data. In addition, customers can opt in to receive industry-specific newsletters.

Note: The amounts allocated to each line item in the above milestones are subject to change without notice. Our planned milestones are based on the estimated amount of time to complete each milestone.

 

Long-Term Plan (5 Years)

 

Signal Bay Research is just one subsidiary of Signal Bay, Inc. While we continue to grow our research capabilities, we may leverage our experts and expertise in emerging industries to directly invest in companies in emerging industries, and/or launch firms that we see are needed by these industries.  For example, we may choose to acquire assets or partner with other companies to own and/or operate assets such as renewable energy plants or invest in promising companies that participate in the emerging industries that we cover such as medical marijuana companies, or ancillary service firms in any of these industries.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we are an “emerging growth company,” we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding advisory “say-on-pay” votes on executive compensation and shareholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation.

 

Under the JOBS Act, we will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of:

 

·

the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more;

·

the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering;

·

the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non- convertible debt; and

·

the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act.

 

We will qualify as a large accelerated filer as of the first day of the first fiscal year after we have (i) more than $700 million in outstanding common equity held by our non-affiliates and (ii) been public for at least 12 months. The value of our outstanding common equity will be measured each year on the last day of our second fiscal quarter.

 

The Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that we may elect to utilize the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards and such election is irrevocable if made. As such, we have made the election to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. Please refer to a discussion on page 13 under “Risk Factors” of the effect on our financial statements of such election.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Set forth, under the caption “Risk Factors,” where appropriate, the risk factors described in Item 503(c) ofRegulation S-K (§229.503(c) of this chapter) applicable to the registrant. Provide any discussion of riskfactors in plain English in accordance with Rule 421(d) of the Securities Act of 1933 (§230.421(d) of this chapter). Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item

An investment in our Common Stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this prospectus. The statements contained in or incorporated into this prospectus that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the value of our Common Stock could decline, and an investor in our securities may lose all or part of their investment.

 

The Company has limited capitalization and lack of working capital and as a result is dependent on raising funds to grow and expand its business.

 

Our management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has extremely limited capitalization and is dependent on raising funds to grow and expand its businesses. The Company will endeavor to finance its need for additional working capital through debt or equity financing. Additional debt financing would be sought only in the event that equity financing failed to provide the Company necessary working capital. Debt financing may require the Company to mortgage, pledge or hypothecate its assets, and would reduce cash flow otherwise available to pay operating expenses and acquire additional assets. Debt financing would likely take the form of short-term financing provided by officers and directors of the Company, to be repaid from future equity financing. Additional equity financing is anticipated to take the form of one or more private placements to qualified investors under exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act or a subsequent public offering. However, there are no current agreements or understandings with regard to the form, time or amount of such financing and there is no assurance that any of this financing can be obtained or that the Company can continue as a going concern.

 

 We are an “emerging growth company,” and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced disclosure requirements applicable to “emerging growth companies” could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and, for as long as we continue to be an “emerging growth company,” we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to opt in to the extended transition period for complying with the revised accounting standards.

The Company has limited revenue and limited operating history which make it difficult to evaluate the Company which could restrict your ability to sell your shares.

 

The Company has only a limited operating history and limited revenues. Activities to date have been limited to organizational efforts and obtaining initial financing. The Company must be considered in the developmental stage. Prospective investors should be aware of the difficulties encountered by such enterprises, as the Company faces all the risks inherent in any new business, including the absence of any prior operating history, need for working capital and intense competition. The likelihood of success of the Company must be considered in light of such problems, expenses and delays frequently encountered in connection with the operation of a new business and the competitive environment in which the Company will be operating.

 

The Company is dependent on key personnel and loss of the services of any of these individuals could adversely affect the conduct of the company's business.

 

Initially, success of the Company is entirely dependent upon the management efforts and expertise of Mr. Waldrop and Ms. Glauser. A loss of the services of Mr. Waldrop or Ms. Glauser could adversely affect the conduct of the Company's business. In such event, the Company would be required to obtain other personnel to manage and operate the Company, and there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to employ a suitable replacement for either of such individuals, or that a replacement could be hired on terms which are favorable to the Company. The Company currently maintains no key man insurance on the lives of any of its officers or directors. The Company currently has not entered into any employment agreements with our officers or key personal. The Company expects to enter into employment agreements in 2015.

 

Because we do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors after considering whether we have generated sufficient revenues, our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and other factors. Accordingly, investors that are seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

Our shares may be subject to the “penny stock” rules that might subject you to restrictions on marketability and you may not be able to sell your shares

 

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). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risk associated with the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny 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. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker- dealer must make a written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. If the Company's securities become subject to the penny stock rules, investors in this offering may find it more difficult to sell their securities. 

 

Due to the control by management of 99% of the total voting power our non-management shareholders will have no power to choose management or impact operations.

 

Management currently maintains a voting power of 99%. Consequently, management has the ability to influence control of our operations and, acting together, will have the ability to influence or control substantially all matters submitted to stockholders for approval, including:

 

·

Election of the Board of Directors;

·

Removal of directors;

·

Amendment to the our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; and

  

 
7

 

These stockholders will thus have substantial influence over our management and affairs and other stockholders possess no practical ability to remove management or effect the operations of our business. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership by itself may have the effect of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business consolidation, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for the Common Stock.

 

We may need additional financing which we may not be able to obtain on acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise additional capital, as needed, the future growth of our business and operations would be severely limited.

 

A limiting factor on our growth, and is our limited capitalization which could impact our ability execute on our divisions business plans. If we raise additional capital through the issuance of debt, this will result in increased interest expense. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of the Company held by existing shareholders will be reduced and our shareholders may experience significant dilution. In addition, new securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our Common Stock. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may become subject to certain operational limitations (for example, negative operating covenants). There can be no assurance that acceptable financing necessary to further implement our plan of operation can be obtained on suitable terms, if at all. Our ability to develop our business, fund expansion, develop or enhance products or respond to competitive pressures, could suffer if we are unable to raise the additional funds on acceptable terms, which would have the effect of limiting our ability to increase our revenues or possibly attain profitable operations in the future.

 

We cannot guarantee that an active trading market will develop for our Common Stock that may restrict your ability to sell your shares.

 

The Company’s stock trades on the OTC under the ticker SGBY. However, there is no active public market for our Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a regular trading market for our Common Stock will ever develop or that, if developed, it will be sustained. Therefore, purchasers of our Common Stock should have a long-term investment intent and should recognize that it may be difficult to sell the shares, notwithstanding the fact that they are not restricted securities. There has not been a market for our Common Stock. We cannot predict the extent to which a trading market will develop or how liquid a market might become.

 

Our by-laws provide for indemnification of our officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability which may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.

 

Our bylaws require that we indemnify and hold harmless our officers and directors, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from certain claims, liabilities and expenses under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations and the provisions of Colorado law. Under Colorado law a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, against expenses, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with an action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

 

The Company's auditors have issued a going concern opinion that the Company's may not be able to continue without raising additional capital therefore needs to raise additional capital to continue its operations and to implement its plan of operations.

 

Our auditors and management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has extremely limited capitalization and is dependent on raising funds to grow and expand its businesses. The Company needs to raise additional capital to continue its operations and to implement its plan of operations. Additional equity financing is anticipated to take the form of one or more private placements to qualified investors under exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act or a subsequent public offering. However, there are no current agreements or understandings with regard to the form, time or amount of such financing and there is no assurance that any of this financing can be obtained or that the Company can continue as a going concern.

Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and/or directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.

 

Management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of September 30, 2014:

 

(1)

Lack of an independent audit committee. The Company does not have an audit committee. We may establish an audit committee comprised solely of independent directors when we have sufficient capital resources and working capital to attract qualified independent directors and to maintain such a committee.

 

 

(2)

Inadequate staffing and supervision within our bookkeeping operations. The relatively small number of people who are responsible for bookkeeping functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the ultimate identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews which may result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

 

(3)

Insufficient number of independent directors. At the present time, our Board of Directors does not consist of a majority of independent directors, a factor that is counter to corporate governance practices as set forth by the rules of various stock exchanges.

 

Our management determined that these deficiencies constituted material weaknesses. Due to a lack of financial and personnel resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until we acquire sufficient financing and staff to do so.

 

Economic conditions, regulatory changes, and other factors beyond our control could cause a decline in demand for our products.

 

We are dependent on the economies in which we sell our products, and in particular on levels of consumer spending. Economic conditions affect not only the ultimate consumer, but also retailers, our primary direct customers. As a result, our results may be adversely affected by downward trends in the economies in which we sell our products. Regulatory changes such as those specifically related to the emerging industries we cover, could adversely affect the demand for our products.

Our performance may be impacted by general economic conditions and an economic downturn.

 

Recessionary pressures from an overall decline in U.S. economic activity could adversely impact our results of operations. Economic uncertainty may reduce consumer spending and could result in increased pressure from competitors or customers to reduce the prices of our products and/or limit our ability to increase or maintain prices, which could lower revenues and profitability. Instability in the financial markets may impact our ability or increase the cost to enter into new credit agreements in the future. Additionally, it may weaken the ability of customers, suppliers, distributors, banks, insurance companies and other business partners to perform in the normal course of business, which could expose us to losses or disrupt supply of inputs used to conduct our business. If one or more key business partners fail to perform as expected or contracted, our operating results could be negatively impacted.

 

We may incur significant future expenses due to the implementation of our business strategy.

 

We strive to achieve our long-term vision of being a leading marketing researching firm. Such action is subject to the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in the implementation of a business strategy. If we are unsuccessful in developing, acquiring and/or licensing new products, and increasing sales volume of our existing products, our operating results could be negatively impacted. Even if we are successful, this business strategy may require us to incur substantial additional expenses, including advertising and promotional costs, and integration costs of any future acquisitions. We also may be unsuccessful at integrating any future acquisitions.

 

Summary

 

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to investors. There may be events in the future, however, that we are unable to predict accurately or over which we have no control. The risk factors listed on the previous pages as well as any cautionary language in this registration statement, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward looking statements. The occurrence of the events our business described in the previous risk factors and elsewhere in this registration statement could negatively impact our business, cash flows, results of operation, prospects, financial condition and stock price.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations

 

This following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management of the Company. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as may, shall, could, expect, estimate, anticipate, predict, probable, possible, should, continue, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

 

The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. We cannot guaranty that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

 

GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs, and it does not have sufficient cash flow to maintain its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects to develop its business and thereby increase its revenue. However, the Company would require sufficient capital to be invested into the Company to begin generating sufficient revenue to cover the monthly expenses of the Company. Until the Company is able to generate revenue, the Company would be required to raise capital through the sale of its stock or through debt financing. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders.

 

To this date the Company has relied on the sale of stock, mainly to its officers and directors, to finance its operations and growth. The Company expects to continue to fund the Company through debt and securities sales and issuances until the Company generates enough revenues through the operations. These transactions will initially be through related parties, such as the Company’s officers and directors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates. 

 

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2014 the Company had $0in cash for a total of $0 in assets. In management’s opinion, the Company’s cash position is insufficient to maintain its operations at the current level for the next 12 months. Any expansion may cause the Company to require additional capital until such expansion began generating revenue. It is anticipated that the raise of additional funds will principally be through the sales of our securities. As of the date of this report, additional funding has not been secured and no assurance may be given that we will be able to raise additional funds. 

 

If the Company is not able to able to raise or secure the necessary funds required to maintain our operations and fully execute our business then the Company would be required to cease operations.

 

As of September 30, 2014, our total liabilities were $56,289.

 

Sixty days after the Company files this Form 10, the Company shall be come a fully reporting company to the SEC. As a result, the Company expects the legal and accounting costs of being a public company will impact our liquidity. The expected costs of these are approximately $15,000 to $20,000. This amount is expected to possibly increase to $25,000 once the Company begins marketing and selling its product. Our officers, directors and principal shareholders have verbally agreed to provide $20,000 in financing that can be used to cover these expenses. However, there is no guarantee that we will receive the funds from our officers and directors since there is no legal commitment or obligation. Other than the anticipated increases in legal and accounting costs due to the reporting requirements of being a reporting company, we are not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties, which may affect our future liquidity. This is the only amount and for that our officer, director and principal shareholders have committed to which will be sufficient to fund the company's current operations and its expenses related to being a public company for the next 12 months.

 

Timing needs for Funding for Expansion

 

The Company expects to require the following capital needs based on the stages of its products:

 

Proposed Milestones to Implement Business Operations

 

The following milestones are based on estimates made by our management team. The working capital requirements and the projected milestones are approximations and are subject to adjustments. The Company projects it will need $800,000 over the next 12 months to expand. The Company expects to raise the $800,000 needed through debt financing or through a registered offering. Once the Company has obtained the financing it will begin executing on its expansion plan.

 

We plan to complete our milestones as follows:

Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Article 109 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act and our Bylaws. 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 of 1933 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 of 1933 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.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors of 

Signal Bay, Inc. 

Las Vegas, Nevada

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Signal Bay, Inc. (The Company) as of September 30, 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period from the date of inception on August 29, 2014 to September 30, 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the 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 misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 statement 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 the Company as of September 30, 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period from the date of inception on August 29, 2014 to September 30, 2014 then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements 

August 29, 2014 - September 30, 2014

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of significant accounting policies of Signal Bay, Inc. (the “Company”) is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies presented in these footnotes conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. These financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. At inception, the Company elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The adoption of this ASU allows the Company to remove the inception to date information and all references to development stage.

 

Organization, Nature of Business and Trade Name 

 

Signal Bay, Inc. ("we", "us", "our", the "Company" or the "Registrant") was originally incorporated in the State of New York, December 12, 1977 under the name 3171 Holding Corporation, on February 22, 1979 the name was changed to Electronomic Industries Corp. and on February 23, 1983 the name was changed to Quantech Electronics Corp. The company was reincorporated in the State of Colorado on December 15, 2003. On August 29, 2014, the Company completed a reverse merger with Signal Bay Research, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. Signal Bay Research Inc. was the surviving Company. In September 2014, the Company changed its name from Quantech Electronics Corp. to Signal Bay, Inc. The company has selected September 30 as its fiscal year end. Signal Bay, Inc. is domiciled in the State of Colorado, and its corporate headquarters are located in Las Vegas, NV.

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company applies Topic 718 “Share-Based Payments” (“Topic 718”) to share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.

 

The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

 
F-6

  

Revenue Recognition

 

The company pursues opportunities to realize revenues from two principal activities: sale of relevant industry research and advisory services. It is the company’s policy that revenues and gains will be recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 605-10-25, “Revenue Recognition.” Under ASC Topic 605-10-25, revenue earning activities are recognized upon sale of its industry research and/or advisory services have been performed the company has substantially accomplished all it must do to be entitled to the benefits represented by the revenue.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on Signal Bay, Inc.’s financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Signal Bay Inc.’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year; and, (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position under ASC 740-10 would equal the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all the relevant information. A liability (including interest and penalties, if applicable) is established to the extent a current benefit has been recognized on a tax return for matters that are considered contingent upon the outcome of an uncertain tax position. Related interest and penalties, if any, are included as components of income tax expense and income taxes payable.

 

Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, "Earnings per Share". ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

 
F-7

  

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management believes recently issued accounting pronouncements will have no impact on the financial statements of the Company

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs, and it does not have sufficient cash flow to maintain its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects to develop its business and thereby increase its revenue. However, the Company would require sufficient capital to be invested into the Company to acquire the properties to begin generating sufficient revenue to cover the monthly expenses of the Company. Until the Company is able to generate revenue, the Company would be required to raise capital through the sale of its stock or through debt financing. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders.

 

To this date the Company has relied on the sale of stock, mainly to its officers and directors, to finance its operations and growth. The Company expects to continue to fund the Company through debt and securities sales and issuances until the Company generates enough revenues through the operations. These transactions will initially be through related parties, such as the Company’s officers and directors.

 

NOTE 3 – INCOME TAXES

 

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

 

The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the period from inception through September 2014 applicable under FASB ASC 740. We did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain tax position and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of accumulated deficit on the balance sheet. All tax returns for the Company remain open.

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before provision for income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences for the periods presented are as follows:

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On August 29, 2014, we issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to our officers, directors and principal shareholders for $400 in cash from our officers, directors and principal shareholders which were exchanged for 254,188,068 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Series B (see note 5 for details).

 

During the period ending September 30, 2014, the Company borrowed $10,000 from our officer for the advanced payment of advisory fees relates to the reverse merger. The loan is due August 31, 2015, at 0% interest rate and is unsecured.

 

On August 29, 2014, one of our Directors agreed to provide the Company office space for free on a month to month basis.

 

NOTE 5 – REVERSE MERGER TRANSACTION

 

On August 29, 2014, the Company executed a reverse merger with Signal Bay Research, Inc. On August 29, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement whereby the Company acquired 100% of Signal Bay Research, Inc, in exchange for 254,188,068 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Series B of the Company. Signal Bay Research, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 27, 2014. Signal Bay Research was the surviving Company and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company previously had no operations or assets. A liability of $3,066 was assumed by the surviving Company as part of the reverse merger agreement and 35,956,777 shares were retained by the Company’s selling shareholders. As of the closing date of the Share Exchange Agreement, the former shareholders of Signal Bay Research, Inc. held approximately 97.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

 

For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse merger and has been treated as a recapitalization of Signal Bay, Inc., with Signal Bay Research, Inc. is considered the accounting acquirer, and the financial statements of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. The 254,188,068 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Series B were issued to the shareholders of Signal Bay Research Inc., and its designees in conjunction with the share exchange transaction have been presented as outstanding for all periods. The historical consolidated financial statements include the operations of the accounting acquirer for all periods presented.

NOTE 6  – EQUITY

 

Preferred Stock Designation

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

The Company designated 1,850,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

 

Dividends: Initially, there will be no dividends due or payable on the Series A Preferred Stock. Any future terms with respect to dividends shall be determined by the Board consistent with the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation. Any and all such future terms concerning dividends shall be reflected in an amendment to this Certificate, which the Board shall promptly file or cause to be filed.

 

All shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall rank (i) senior to the Corporation’s Common Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created, (ii) pari passu with any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created and specifically ranking, by its terms, on par with the Series A Preferred Stock and (iii) junior to any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series A Preferred Stock, in each case as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.

 

The Series A Preferred shall have no liquidation preference over any other class of stock.

 

Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of preferred stock) for the taking of any corporate action.

 

Conversion at the Option of the Holder. From 12 months from the date of issuance, each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may, at any time and from time to time, convert (an “Optional Conversion”) each of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at a rate equal to 4.9% of the Common Stock.

 

Anti-Dilution. For a period of 18 months after the Preferred is convertible, the conversion price of the Series A Preferred will be subject to adjustment to prevent dilution in the event that the Company issues additional shares at a purchase price less than the applicable conversion price. The conversion price will be subject to adjustment on a weighted basis that takes into account issuances of additional shares. At the expiration of the anti-dilution period, the conversion rate in Section VI (A) above shall be equal to a conversion rate equal to 4.9% on the Common Stock. For example, if on the date of expiration of the anti-dilution clause there are 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding then each Series A Preferred Stock shall convert at a rate of 13.24 common shares for each 1 Series Preferred Share.

 

The company has evaluated the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with ASC 815 and has determined their conversion options were for equity and ASC 815 does not apply.

 

The company has evaluated the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 470-20, and has determined that there is no beneficial conversion feature that must be accounted.

 

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company designated 5,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

 

Initially, there will be no dividends due or payable on the Series B Preferred Stock. Any future terms with respect to dividends shall be determined by the Board consistent with the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation. Any and all such future terms concerning dividends shall be reflected in an amendment to this Certificate, which the Board shall promptly file or cause to be filed.
