Nature of Business and operations

1.Nature of Business and Operations

 

Empire Global Corp. ("Empire" or "the Company") was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 26, 1998 as Pender International Inc. On September 30, 2005 contemporaneously with a change in management and business plan changed its name to Empire Global Corp.

Going Concern

2.Going Concern

 

These unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") with the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we had a loss of $387. The Company has incurred losses amounting to $5,032,578 since inception. Continuation as a going concern is uncertain and dependent upon obtaining additional sources of financing to sustain its existence and achieving future profitable operations, the outcome of which cannot be predicted at this time. In the event the Company cannot obtain the necessary funds, it will be unlikely that it will be able to continue as a going concern. Management plans to mitigate its losses in future years by significantly reducing its operating expenses and seeking out new business opportunities. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing, reduce their operating expenses or be successful in locating or acquiring a viable business.

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the company be unable to continue in existence.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

3.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The Company's significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements are included in the Company's form 10-K dated and filed on February 21, 2012 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. A summary of critical accounting policies are described below.

 

a)Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the requirements of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. There have been no significant changes in accounting policies since December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the periods are not indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited financial statements

 

should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2010. The functional currency used by the Company is the US dollar.

 

b)Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant estimates made by management are, among others, realizability of long-lived assets, and deferred taxes. Management reviews its estimates on a quarterly basis and, where necessary, makes adjustments prospectively.

 

c)Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10 "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.

 

d)Equipment and Depreciation

 

Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, is provided as follows:

 

Equipment 20% Declining Balance

 

e)Impairment of Long Lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 350-30, General Intangibles Other than Goodwill, formerly SFAS No. 142, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

f)Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company's accounts payable and accrued charges, and advances from shareholder approximate fair value because of the short term maturity of these financial instruments.

 

g)Earnings Per Share

 

FASB ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share.

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares.

Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding .

 

h)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In the quarter ending June 30, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued ASU No. 2011-04 and ASU 2011-5, which is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Impairment of Equipment

5.Impairment of Equipment

 

During the second quarter of 2011, we determined that our telephone equipment no longer functioned properly and therefore it was more likely than not that the assets would be disposed of significantly before its previously estimated useful life. As a result, at June 30, 2011 the Company performed an impairment test and determined that an impairment of the carrying value of our equipment was reasonable as follows:

 

Purchase price of equipment  $11,192 
Accumulated depreciation   8,406 
Carrying amount at March 31, 2012   2,785 
Impairment   2,785

9.Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this quarterly report on form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, and has disclosed such items in this note as follows.

 

On December 9, 2011, Empire Global Corp. (the "Company") entered into a Stock Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with Avontrust Global Pte. Ltd. a Singapore company ("AVT") with its head office and operations in Singapore. When the transaction is closed, AVT will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Empire Global Corp.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, at the anticipated closing date of May 8, 2012 the Company will purchase 150,000 shares of AVT representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of AVT in exchange for 169,995,000 shares of the Company, or a ratio of approximately 1,133.3 shares of the Company for each share of AVT. The Company will increase the authorized shares in order to issue the new shares.

 

AVT develops and has acquired a series of social networking entertainment Applications on Facebook with approximately 7 million installed users as of the end of Nov 2011. According to Google Analytics, AVT applications are employed by users represented in over 200 countries in approximately 100 languages and in more than 11,000 different cities from Jan 2010 to Dec 2011. AVT's Facebook application portfolio of products ranges from games, quizzes and social commerce storefronts. AVT aims to tap this user base to virally promote innovative new applications it will be producing internally and with its business partners.

 

At the closing of this agreement, the Company will also transform itself into the world's first public quoted company that is managed principally using the Facebook Application Platform.

 

The Share Exchange Agreement is subject to, among other things, (i) completion of due diligence by the parties to the Agreement; (ii) approval of the respective board of directors of each party and (iii) there being no material adverse change in the financial condition, business or prospects of the Company or AVT prior to closing. We expect the acquisition to close no later than May 8, 2012, unless extended by the parties.
