STANDARD CAPITAL CORPORATION
(Pre-Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2010
1. ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 24, 1998 with the authorized common stock of 25,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value.
|
The shareholders, at the Annual General Meeting held on February 20, 2004, approved an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation whereby the authorized share capital of the Company would be increased from 25,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share to 200,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share.
|
The Company was organized for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties. At the report date the Company has no mineral claim since it allowed the Standard claim to lapse in February 2008 and has not identified another claim to replace it. Nevertheless, the Company continues to be in the pre-exploration stage due to its intent to acquire another mineral claim in the immediate future.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Methods
The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.
Income Taxes
|
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to be reversed. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.
|
On November 30, 2010, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of $222,373. The tax benefit of approximately $66,700 from the loss carry forward has been fully offset by a valuation reserve because the use of the future tax benefit is doubtful since the Company has no operations. The loss carry forward will begin to expire starting in 2018.
STANDARD CAPITAL CORPORATION
(Pre-Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2010
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
|
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
|
|
Basic and Diluted Net Income (loss) Per Share
|
|
Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of any common share rights unless the exercise becomes antidilutive and then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.
|
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized on the sale and transfer of goods or completion of service.
Advertising and Market Development
The company expenses advertising and market development costs as incurred.
Financial and Concentrations Risk
The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risk.
Estimates and Assumptions
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and accounts payable, areconsidered by management to be their estimated fair value due to their short termmaturities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2010
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.
3. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
During the three months ended November 30, 2010, a Director made advances of $53,251 to the Company.
On November 30, 2010, officers-directors and their families had acquired 12% of the common capital stock issued, and have made advances of $70,413 and have made contributions to capital in the form of noncash expenses in the amount of $50,400.
|
At the Annual General Meeting held on February 20, 2004, the shareholders approved a Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) whereby a maximum of 5,000,000 common shares were authorized but unissued to be granted to directors, officers, consultants and non-employees who assisted in the development of the Company. The value of the stock options to be granted under the Plan will be determined on the fair market value of the Company’s shares when they are listed on any established stock exchange or a national market system at the closing price as at the date of granting the option. No stock options have been granted under this Plan.
|
|
The Company has completed one Regulation D offering of 1,295,000 shares of its capital stock for $3,050. In addition, the Company has completed an Offering Memorandum whereby 990,000 common shares were issued for at a price of $0.05 per share for $49,500.
|
|
The Company will need additional working capital to service its debt and for its intended purpose of acquiring another mineral claim, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital from its President, Alexander Magallano or its Chief Financial Officer, Gordon Brooke, and the management of the Company has developed a strategy, which it believes will accomplish this objective through additional equity funding, and long term financing, which will enable the Company to operate for the coming year.
|
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the financial statements of Standard Capital Corporation (“Standard”) and the notes which form an integral part of the financial statements which are attached hereto.
The financial statements mentioned above have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and are stated in United States dollars.
Standard presently has minimal day-to-day operations; mainly comprising the maintaining of the Standard claim in good standing on an annual basis and preparing the various reports to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as required.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Standard has had no revenue since inception and its accumulated deficit is $222,373. To date, the growth of Standard has been funded by the sale of shares and advances by its former director in order to meet the requirements of filing with the SEC.
Standard has not yet identified a mineral property to replace the Standard claim which was allowed to lapse on February 23, 2008. Presently Standard does not have the funds to consider any additional mineral claims. Management is considering the raising of additional funds through the sale of shares but no decision as to the price and number of shares to be issued has been decided upon.
Management estimates that a minimum of $23,205 will be required over the next twelve months to pay for such expenses as bookkeeping ($5,250), auditing ($4,550), Edgar fees ($1,155), filing fees to maintain Standard in good standing with the State of Delaware and payment to Standard’s registrant ($300), identifying a new mineral claim and obtaining geological report thereon ($10,000), office and miscellaneous ($750), and payments to the transfer agent ($1,200). The above noted figure does not include amounts owed to third party creditors in the amount of $49,672 as at November 30, 2010. The amount required to cover total operating costs for the next twelve months and to settle all the outstanding amounts owed to third party creditors would be $72,877. At present Standard does not have these funds to pay for future expenses and eliminate accounts payable and therefore would be required to either sell shares in its capital stock or obtain further advances from its director. Standard’s future operations and growth is dependent on its ability to raise capital for expansion and to seek revenue sources.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Standard claim
The Standard claim lapsed without the Company undertaking any exploration work during the past year due to management feeling there was not significant mineral value in the claim. It expired on February 23, 2008. The Company no longer has any rights to the minerals on the Standard claim nor any liability attached thereto.
The new management of Standard is seeking another mineral claim of merit but at this time has not identified any mineral claim.
Standard has undertaken no product research and development since inception. Management has no plans to purchase or sell any plant or significant equipment in the foreseeable future. In addition, Standard does not expect a significant change in the number of employees in the immediate future.
ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
Market Information
There are no common shares subject to outstanding options, warrants or securities convertible into common equity of our Company.
The number of shares subject to Rule 144 is 265,000 Share certificates representing these shares have the appropriate legend affixed on them.
There are no shares being offered to the public other than indicated in our effective registration statement and no shares have been offered pursuant to an employee benefit plan or dividend reinvestment plan.
Our shares are traded on the OTCBB. Although the OTCBB does not have any listing requirements per se, to be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB, we must remain current in our filings with the SEC; being as a minimum Forms 10-Q and 10-K. Securities already quoted on the OTCBB that become delinquent in their required filings will be removed following a 30 or 60 day grace period if they do not make their filing during that time.
In the future our common stock trading price might be volatile with wide fluctuations. Things that could cause wide fluctuations in our trading price of our stock could be due to one of the following or a combination of several of them:
●
|
our variations in our operations results, either quarterly or annually;
|
|
|
●
|
trading patterns and share prices in other exploration companies which our shareholders consider similar to ours;
|
|
|
●
|
the merits of a new mineral claim, and
|
|
|
●
|
other events which we have no control over.
|
In addition, the stock market in general, and the market prices for thinly traded companies in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These wide fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our shares regardless of our future performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a security, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against such company. Such litigation, if instituted, whether successful or not, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial conditions.
Trends
We are in the developments stage, have not generated any revenue and have no prospects of generating any revenue in the foreseeable future. We are unaware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our business or income, either in the long term or short term, as more fully described under ‘Risk Factors’.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of November 30, 2010 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the Evaluation Date as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting discussed below.
Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified below, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended November 30, 2010 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects
Material Weaknesses
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of Evaluation Date and identified the following material weaknesses:
1.
|
Certain entity level controls establishing a “tone at the top” were considered material weaknesses. As of November 30, 2010, there is no policy on fraud. A whistleblower policy is not necessary given the small size of the organization.
|
2.
|
Due to the significant number and magnitude of out-of-period adjustments identified during the year-end closing process, management has concluded that the controls over the year-end financial reporting process were not operating effectively. A material weakness in the year-end financial reporting process could result in us not being able to meet our regulatory filing deadlines and, if not remediated, has the potential to cause a material misstatement or to miss a filing deadline in the future. Management override of existing controls is possible given the small size of the organization and lack of personnel.
|
3.
|
There is no system in place to review and monitor internal control over financial reporting. We maintain an insufficient complement of personnel to carry out ongoing monitoring responsibilities and ensure effective internal control over financial reporting.
|
ITEM 9A(T) CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended November 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART 11 – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings to which Standard is a party nor to the best of management’s knowledge are any material legal proceedings contemplated.
ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS
There are certain risk factors regarding Standard’s operations which might affect the outcome of its ability to operate in the future. An investment in Standard’s securities involves an exceptionally high degree of risk and is extremely speculative. The following risk factors reflect the potential and substantial material risks which could be involved if you decide to purchase shares in Standard.
Risks Associated with Standard:
1.
|
Because Standard’s auditors have issued a going concern opinion and because its officers and directors will not loan any money to it, Standard may not be able to achieve its objectives and may have to suspend or cease exploration activity.
|
Standard’s auditors' report on its 2010 financial statements expressed an opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether Standard can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. Because its officers and directors are unwilling to loan or advance capital to it, Standard believes that if it does not raise additional capital through the issuance of treasury shares, Standard will be unable to conduct exploration activity and may have to cease operations and go out of business.
2.
|
With the expiry of the Standard mineral claim, the Company has no assets to build a future thereon.
|
On February 23, 2008, the Company did not maintain the Standard claim in good standing and therefore lost all rights to the minerals thereon. This has resulted in the Company having no assets to build its future on. Without any assets, the Company might not be able to raise future funding and therefore will cease to exist as a company.

Standard lacks an operating history and has losses which it expects to continue into the future. As a result, Standard may have to suspend or cease exploration activity or cease operations.
|
Standard was incorporated in 1998 and its limited exploration activities have not generated any revenues. Standard has an insufficient exploration history upon which to properly evaluate the likelihood of its future success or failure. Standard’s net loss from inception to November 30, 2010 is $222,373. Its ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow in the future is dependent upon
|
*
|
Its ability to locate a profitable mineral property
|
|
*
|
Its ability to locate an economic ore reserve
|
|
*
|
Its ability to generate revenues
|
|
*
|
Its ability to reduce exploration costs.
|
Based upon current plans, Standard expects to incur operating losses in future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with identifying a new mineral property, obtaining a geological report and undertaking preliminary explorations work on the new mineral claim. Standard cannot guarantee it will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause it to go out of business.
4.
|
Because Standard’s officers and directors do not have technical training or experience in managing a public company, it will have to hire qualified personnel to fulfill these functions. If Standard lacks funds to retain such personnel, or cannot locate qualified personnel, it may have to suspend or cease exploration activity or cease operations which will result in the loss of its shareholders’ investment.
|
Standard’s officers and directors have no direct training or experience in managing and fulfilling the regulatory reporting obligations of a ‘public company’ like Standard. Unless its two officers and directors are willing to spend more time addressing these matters, it will have to hire professionals to undertake these filing requirements for Standard and this will increase the overall cost of operations.
As a result Standard may have to suspend or cease exploration activity, or cease operations altogether, which will result in the loss of its shareholders’ investment.
5.
|
Because Standard’s officers and directors have other outside business activities and may not be in a position to devote a majority of their time to Standard’s exploration activity, its exploration activity may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration.
|
Standard’s new President and CEO, Alexander Borco Magallano, Professional Geologist, will be devoting only 15% of his time, approximately 15 hours per month, to Standard’s operations of its business. Standard’s new Secretary-Treasurer, Rudy Belloy Perez, Professional Geologist, and its other director, B. Gordon Brooke, will be devoting only 5 to 10 hours per month to Standard’s operations. As a consequence Standard’s business may suffer. For example, because its officers and directors have other outside business activities and may not be in a position to devote a majority of their time to Standard’s exploration activity, its exploration activity may be sporadic or may be periodically interrupted or suspended. Such suspensions or interruptions may cause us to cease operations altogether and go out of business.
|
6. Standard anticipates the need to sell additional treasury shares in the future meaning that there will be a dilution to its existing shareholders resulting in their percentage ownership in Standard being reduced accordingly.
|
Standard expects that the only way it will be able to acquire additional funds is through the sale of its common stock. This will result in a dilution effect to its shareholders whereby their percentage ownership interest in Standard is reduced. The magnitude of this dilution effect will be determined by the number of shares Standard will have to issue in the future to obtain the funds required.
|
7. Because Standard’s securities are subject to penny stock rules, its shareholders may have difficulty reselling their shares.
|
Standard’s shares are "penny stocks" and are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell the Company's securities including the delivery of a standardized disclosure document; disclosure and confirmation of quotation prices; disclosure of compensation the broker/dealer receives; and, furnishing monthly account statements. For sales of Standard’s securities, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination and receive from its customer a written agreement prior to making a sale. The imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices could adversely affect a shareholder's ability to dispose of his stock.
