NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Basta Holdings, Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 11, 2011 and intended to commence operations in the distribution of copper pipes and fittings for sanitary engineering. In January 2014, the Company’s majority shareholder sold 100% of her ownership representing 80.42% of the Company’s outstanding common shares to a third party in a private transaction. Coincidental with this change of ownership, the Company discontinued its previous business plan to distribute copper pipes and fittings for sanitary engineering and adopted a new business plan to provide aviation services to third parties. It is anticipated that these planned services shall include the provision of aviation support services to Aircraft Charter Solutions, Inc. (“ACS”), a company which provides aviation support services to AECOM Technology Corporation, a subcontractor for Dyncorp International Inc., which is a contractor for the U.S. government under the U.S. Army’s Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (“LOGCAP”) in Afghanistan. The Company shall be a subcontractor for ACS, providing ACMI (aircraft, crew, maintenance, insurance) as well as war risk insurance, operational management and dispatch coordination for flights, U.S. government regulation and compliance with government mandated MOD 11 level medical examinations, visas and communication support, and other management and logistic support. The Company’s flight operations will include services such as the delivery of food, water, fuel, spare parts, personnel and other items to locations throughout Afghanistan. Additionally, the Company intends to provide similar services to IAL International Aviation Logistics Limited (“IAL”) for services rendered in Libya. As of April 30, 2014, the Company has not commenced these services and is currently negotiating these arrangements with ACS and IAL

The Company shall also provide management services to WAB International, Inc. (“WAB”), and promotion and marketing of services to Monarch Air Group, LLC. (“Monarch”) pursuant to two agreements outlined as follows:
 
Agreement with WAB
 
On January 31, 2014, and effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for Management related to two of WAB’s aviation services contracts. As consideration for this agreement, the Company originally agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of a number of Series A Preferred Shares to be determined at a later date and each such share was to entitle the holder to a certain number of votes. As the terms of this proposed agreement had not been finalized at January 31, 2014, the proposed issuance of the undetermined number of Series A Preferred Shares was not recorded in the Company’s financial statements at January 31, 2014. On March 12, 2014, prior to the amendment of the Company’s articles of incorporation and prior to the determination of the number of Series A preferred shares to be issued or the issuance of any such shares, the Company amended the agreement while maintaining the same effective date. The amended agreement calls for the Company to provide management services which includes vendor and financial management under two of WAB’s contracts. The amendment provides that the Company will be paid ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues from the two contracts and eliminated the Company’s obligation to issue to any Series A Preferred Shares to WAB.
 
WAB provides airlift support, dedicated helicopters and rotary and fixed wing aircraft to international clientele. WAB services include cargo and passenger transportation, logging, mining support, offshore drilling support, relief efforts, firefighting and search-and-rescue.
 
As of April 30, 2014, the Company had not commenced any activities pursuant to Exclusive Agreement for Management. Management is in the process of developing plans and anticipates launching said services before the end of the quarter ending July 31, 2014.

Agreement with Monarch
 
Effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services of Monarch Air Group, LLC. (“Monarch”). Upon execution of this agreement, the Company received a one-time fee of $5,000 which has been reflected in revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2014, and Monarch agreed to pay us 10% of gross sales generated from our services. As of April 30, 2014, the Company received an advance payment of $13,000 related to such contract which has been reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheet.

Monarch is a Florida limited liability company which is in the business of providing aircraft, crew maintenance and insurance leases for rotary and fixed wing aircraft as well as chartering on-demand private, corporate and luxury flights.

As of April 30, 2014, the Company had not commenced any activities pursuant to the Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services. Management is in the process of developing plans and anticipates launching said services before the end of the quarter ending July 31, 2014.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying interim financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its financial position and the results of its operations for the interim period presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s filing of Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying unaudited financial statements for Basta Holdings, Corp. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S.”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole.

Development stage company

The Company has previously been considered in the development stage as defined under the then current Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915-205 “Development-Stage Entities” and among the additional disclosures required as a development stage company were that our financial statements were identified as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows disclosed activity since the date of our Inception (May 11, 2011) as a development stage company. Effective June 10, 2014 FASB changed its regulations with respect to Development Stage Entities and these additional disclosures are no longer required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 with the option for entities to early adopt these new provisions. The Company has elected to early adopt these provisions and consequently these additional disclosures are not included in these financial statements.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, prepaid expenses, loan payable – related party, accounts payable, accrued expenses, advances payable and deferred revenue approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013.

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charges for the three and six months ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, products are fully delivered or services have been provided, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue from helicopter services on an “ad hoc” basis, which usually entails a short contract notice period and duration, is recognized as the related services are performed and is based on a monthly fixed fee plus additional fees for each hour flown.

Income taxes

The Company is governed by the income tax laws of the United States of America. The Company accounts for income tax using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our consolidated financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Advertising

Advertising is expensed as incurred and is included in selling expenses on the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of income. The Company did not incur advertising expenses during the three and six months ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The Company issued no stock based compensation during the three and six months ended April 30, 2014 or 2013.

Net loss per share of common stock
 
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with “ASC-260”, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. During the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, no potentially dilutive debt or equity securities were issued or outstanding.

Related party transactions

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities including such person’s immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption other than in respect of the early adoption of the new regulations relating to Development Stage Entities as discussed above.

On January 31, 2014, and effective January 31, 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Agreement for Management related to two of WAB’s aviation services contracts. As consideration for this agreement, the Company originally agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of a number of Series A Preferred Shares to be determined at a later date and each such share was to entitle the holder to a certain number of votes. As the terms of this proposed agreement had not been finalized at January 31, 2014, the proposed issuance of the undetermined number of Series A Preferred Shares was not recorded in the Company’s financial statements at January 31, 2014. On March 12, 2014, prior to the amendment of the Company’s articles of incorporation and prior to the determination of the number of Series A preferred shares to be issued or the issuance of any such shares, the Company amended the agreement while maintaining the same effective date. The amended agreement calls for the Company to provide management services which includes vendor and financial management under two of WAB’s contracts. The amendment provides that the Company will be paid ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues from the two contracts and eliminated the Company’s obligation to issue to any Series A Preferred Shares to WAB.
 
WAB provides airlift support, dedicated helicopters and rotary and fixed wing aircraft to international clientele. WAB services include cargo and passenger transportation, logging, mining support, offshore drilling support, relief efforts, firefighting and search-and-rescue.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
 
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

We plan to provide aviation services to third parties. It is anticipated that these planned services include the provision of aviation support services to Aircraft Charter Solutions, Inc. (“ACS”), a company which provides aviation support services to AECOM Technology Corporation, a subcontractor for Dyncorp International Inc., which is a contractor for the U.S. government under the U.S. Army’s Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (“LOGCAP”) in Afghanistan. We are a subcontractor for ACS, providing ACMI (aircraft, crew, maintenance, insurance) as well as war risk insurance, operational management and dispatch coordination for flights, U.S. government regulation and compliance with government mandated MOD 11 level medical examinations, visas and communication support, and other management and logistic support. The Company’s flight operations will include services such as the delivery of food, water, fuel, spare parts, personnel and other items to locations throughout Afghanistan. Additionally, the Company intends to provide similar services to IAL International Aviation Logistics Limited (“IAL”) for services rendered in Libya.

As of April 30, 2014, we have not commenced our aviation services to ACS and IAL and we are currently negotiating these arrangement. Additionally, we are in the process of establishing relationships with suppliers.

Additionally, we also intend to provide management services to WAB International, Inc. (“WAB”) and provide promotion and marketing of services to Monarch Air Group, LLC. (“Monarch”) pursuant to two agreements outlined as follows:
 
On January 31, 2014, and effective January 31, 2014, we entered into an Exclusive Agreement for Management related to two of WAB’s Aviation Services Contracts. In consideration with this agreement, we originally agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of Series A Preferred Shares and each such share was to entitle the holder to a certain number of votes. On March 12, 2014, we amended that agreement while maintaining the same effective date. The amended agreement calls for us to provide management services which includes vendor and financial management under two of WAB’s contracts. The amendment provides that we will be paid ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues from the two contracts and eliminated our obligation to issue to any Series A Preferred Shares to WAB. WAB provides airlift support, dedicated helicopters and rotary and fixed wing aircraft to international clientele. WAB services include cargo and passenger transportation, logging, mining support, offshore drilling support, relief efforts, firefighting and search-and-rescue. As of April 30, 2014, the Company had not commenced any activities pursuant to Exclusive Agreement for Management. Management is in the process of developing plans and anticipates launching said services before the end of the quarter ending July 31, 2014.

Effective January 31, 2014, we entered into an Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services of Monarch Air Group, LLC. (“Monarch”). Monarch is a Florida limited liability company which is in the business of providing aircraft, crew maintenance and insurance leases for rotary and fixed wing aircraft as well as chartering on-demand private, corporate and luxury flights. Upon execution of this agreement, the Company received a one-time fee of $5,000 which has been reflected in revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2014, and Monarch agreed to pay us 10% of gross sales generated from our services. As of April 30, 2014, we received an advance payment of $13,000 related to such contract which has been reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheet. As of April 30, 2014, the Company had not commenced any activities pursuant to the Exclusive Agreement for the Promotion and Marketing of Services. Management is in the process of developing plans and anticipates launching said services before the end of the quarter ending July 31, 2014.

On April 20, 2014 and beginning on May 5, 2014, we entered into a two year Aircraft Dry Operating Lease Agreement (the Aircraft Dry Lease”) with an individual in connection with the lease of an aircraft. The Aircraft Dry Lease expires on May 6, 2016, can be renewed by agreement in writing by all parties, and can be cancelled at any time with at least 60 day notice to the other without cause. Payment due pursuant to Aircraft Dry Lease are $10,000 per month plus $700 per flight hours flown in the previous month.

On May 20, 2014 we entered into an agreement with Chemoil Corporation DBA Chemoil Aviation to purchase and sell Chemoil’s jet fuel.

Current Operating Environment and Outlook

After a decade of unprecedented defense spending to support operations in Afghanistan and throughout the Middle East, our industry is adjusting to a period of reduced funding and budget uncertainty brought about by the convergence of a variety of policy, political and fiscal realities. These factors include the ongoing draw-down of U.S. troops in Afghanistan, and governmental spending cuts. While there exists potential challenges that could adversely impact our business on a short term basis, we believe the longer term industry trends are positive and will result in continued demand in our target markets for the types of services we provide. Such trends include the realignment of the military force structure, leading to increased outsourcing of non-combat functions, including life-cycle asset management functions ranging from organizational to depot-level maintenance;

While determining the size and scope of the U.S. and international presence in Afghanistan is dependent on concluding a Bilateral Security Agreement (“BSA”), we still anticipate remaining issues will be resolved and that there will be opportunities to support the enduring U.S. and NATO presence. Support opportunities include the U.S. Department of State (“DoS”), which is expected to expand and include the U.S. embassy in Kabul and four consulates around the country. Additionally, we anticipate that there will be a continued need to advise, assist and help professionalize Afghan National Security Forces for many years, as specified in the U.S. Afghanistan Strategic Partnership Agreement.

In the Middle East, we expect instability and challenges to our customer’s regional relationships will persist. However, we believe U.S. defense ties and presence throughout the region will continue to be of vital strategic interest to the U.S. and its allies. We believe that our aviation services and support will be key enablers in this environment and we are especially well positioned to provide these services to both U.S. forces and Allied nations. Finally, the re-balance to Asia reflects the increased importance of the Asia-Pacific regions, in both security and economic terms for the U.S. As the U.S. revitalizes and reinforces its presence in this vital region, we expect to see increased demand for our services to our existing and future customer base.

A convergence of market factors have led us to recognize a significant opportunity to establish a super-competitive Independent Aviation Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) service strategically located in the U.S. to satisfy soaring demands of the world’s commercial jet transport fleet. We are pursuing a strategy that not only recognizes the enormous opportunity that these factors are creating, but also introduces a market-changing business model to rapidly gain customers and control market share for sustainable long-term growth. Once established and operated domestically, we plan on replicating our MRO business model in the rapidly expanding aviation markets of China and the former Soviet Union.

We cannot be certain that the economic environment or other factors will not adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations in the future. We believe that our primary sources of liquidity of strong customer collections will enable us to continue to perform under our existing relationships and support further growth of our business. However, adverse conditions, such as a long term credit crisis or sequestration, could adversely affect our ability to obtain additional liquidity at acceptable terms or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements for the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounting for and recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

 
15

 
 
Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, we review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, products are fully delivered or services have been provided, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue from helicopter services on an “ad hoc” basis, which usually entails a short contract notice period and duration, is recognized as the related services are performed and is based on a monthly fixed fee plus additional fees for each hour flown

Recent accounting pronouncements

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption other than in respect of the early adoption of the new regulations relating to Development Stage Entities as discussed above.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended April 30, 2014 to the Three and Six Months Ended April 30, 2013
 
Revenues
 
For the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, we had revenues of $0 and $5,000 as compared to no revenues for the three and six months ended April 30, 2013, respectively. We expect our revenues to increase in future quarters as we begin providing rotary and fixed wing aircraft services to our potential customers.

Operating Expenses

For the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, we incurred operating expenses of $151,493 and $162,428 as compared to $1,960 and $8,725 incurred for the three and six months ended April 30, 2013, respectively. Operating expenses comprised general and administrative expenses of salaries and related benefits and professional fees such as legal and accounting, Edgar filing fees, consulting fees, investor relations fees, and transfer agent fees. The increase in general and administrative expenses in the three and six months ended April 30, 2014 as compared to the three and six months ended April 30, 2013 was substantially due to the recruitment of approximately 10 staff to implement our new business plan.

Net Loss

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 was $151,493 and $1,960, or a net loss per common share of $0.04 and $0.00 (basic and diluted), respectively, due to the factors discussed above. Our net loss for the six months ended April 30, 2014 and 2013 was $157,428 and $8,725, or a net loss per common share of $0.04 and $0.00 (basic and diluted), respectively, due to the factors discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. To date, we have funded our operations through the sale of our common stock, from loans from our former controlling shareholder, and from working capital advances made by WAB of $153,579. Our primary use of cash has been for professional fees, direct costs and for salaries and related benefits. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

 
An substantial increase in working capital requirements to finance our business plan,
 
Addition of administrative and professional personnel as the business grows, and
 
The cost of being a public company.
 
 
16

 
 
At April 30, 2014 we had current assets of $53,689 and total assets of $58,074, the majority of which was comprised of cash in the amount of $53,689 as compared to total and current assets of $7,429 at October 31, 2013. As of April 30, 2014, we had total and current liabilities of $208,712 as compared to $14,383 at October 31, 2013.

We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures, however, in order to expand operations, we must raise funds through equity or debt financing. We will need to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations, without further financing, for up to 12 months. Other than working capital and funds received from operations and from the sales of our equity instruments, we presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We began to generate cash flows from operations and expect to generate funds for management and marketing services rendered in connection with the agreements we entered into with WAB, Monarch and Chemoil. We may not have sufficient working capital to fund the expansion of our operations and to provide working capital necessary for our ongoing operations and obligations and we will need to raise significant additional capital. We do not anticipate we will be profitable in the remaining of fiscal 2014. Therefore our future operations may be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will be required to further curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit opinion for the year ended October 31, 2013.
 
Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.
 
Operating activities

For the six months ended April, 2014 and 2013, net cash flows used in operating activities amounted to $98,667 and $16,265, respectively. The increase in cash used during the six months ended April 30, 2014 as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2013 is largely due to the recruitment of approximately 10 staff to implement our new business plan and for professional fees. We expect cash used in operations to increase in future periods as we implement our business plan.

Investing Activities
 
For the six months ended April 30, 2014, net cash flows used in investing activities was $4,473 related to the purchase of property and equipment.

Financing activities

For the six months ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, net cash flows provided by financing activities was $152,940 and $27,300 respectively. During the six months ended April 30, 2014, we received working capital advances from WAB of $153,579 and repaid loans from our former controlling shareholder of $639. The working capital advances received from WAB are non-interest bearing and payable on demand. During the six months ended April 30, 2013, we received proceeds from loans our former controlling shareholder of $5,400 and proceeds from the sale of common stock of $21,900.

Contractual Obligations

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014.

Based on this evaluation we concluded that as of March 31, 2014 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of significant weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting including deficiencies in properly documenting customer and supplier relationships and revenue recognition procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our first quarter ended March 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
 
No sales of unregistered equity securities were completed during the three and six months ended April 30, 2014.

In May 2014, we sold to two investors (the “Investors”), an aggregate of 1.5 investment units (each a “Unit” and collectively, the “Units”) at a price of $25,000 per unit (the “Unit Price”), for aggregate offering proceeds of $37,500 (the “Offering Proceeds”). Each Unit consisted of (i) 25,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share, convertible into 50,000 shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) one (1) Warrant to purchase 25,000 share of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. As a result in May 2014 we issued an aggregate of 37,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 1.5 Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 37,500 shares of our common stock at $1.00 per share. The issuance was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of that act.
 
Defaults In Senior Securities
 
No senior securities were issued or outstanding during the three months ended April 30, 2014 or 2013.

Other Information
 
In April 2014, we collected funds amounting to $942,000 from third parties customers for aviation services as discussed in Note 1 to our financial statements and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Those funds were deposited into our bank account and at the time we received those funds, we recorded revenue. Additionally, since our suppliers are foreign companies subject to multiple government regulatory and banking issues, we paid WAB $817,950 for services rendered to our customers and WAB paid our suppliers since they had established relationships with these suppliers. We are in the process of obtaining the necessary approvals to be able to pay our suppliers directly. In a press release and 8-K dated April 21, 2014, we also reported this revenue. During the preparation of quarterly report on this 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2014, based on further analysis of generally accepted accounting principles related to revenue recognition, we determined that these deposits could not be recognized as revenue due to a lack of proper documentation of our business relationships with our customers and suppliers. Accordingly, we reflected these deposits from third party customers as working capital advances from WAB International, Inc. In the April 21, 2014 press release, we also stated that we expected to generate approximately $11.5 million in anticipated revenues. In May and June 2014, we collected funds amounting to approximately $2,400,000 from third parties customers for aviation services and we paid WAB $2,200,000 for services rendered by WAB and our suppliers. Management will have to continue and will need to escalate its work with both our customers and suppliers to transition from the accounting and business communication practices of the fragmented and mostly privately owned and foreign-operated special commercial aviation industry to the specific accounting and compliance standards of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our customers are large government and military contractors with operations on several continents, complex internal structures, rigid business policies and procedures. Our suppliers are foreign “third world” companies subject to multiple accounting rules, which, for example, prohibit them from taking payments directly from customers which have not gone through the time-consuming and rigorous vetting and bureaucratic approval processes. Our services were provided in Afghanistan and Libya and we plan on providing services in countries such as Iraq and certain parts of Africa. Since our current customers and supplier relationships are oral, proper documents and records were unavailable and accordingly, we were unable to recognize the collected funds as revenue during this quarter and we elected to involve WAB, an established service provider in our industry, to substitute on the supplier procurement side, essentially passing the amounts received from the customers for the services during the quarter to WAB. Our internal accounting methods and record keeping are being reviewed by management in order to improvement and adjust our communications, billing, record-keeping and cost and revenue accounting on the customer and supplier side. Management expects to be able to correct any deficiencies in that area within the next quarter, which may allow continuous recognition of the respective revenue in the future. There is no guarantee that we will be able to do so or achieve the revenues expected.
