NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Organization and Business Operations
Independent Acquisition Corporation (a development stage company) ("the
Company") was incorporated in Delaware on March 24, 1999 to serve as
a vehicle to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset
acquisition or other business combination with a domestic or foreign
private business. At March 31, 2000, the Company had not yet
commenced any formal business operations, and all activity to date
relates to the Company's formation and proposed fund raising. The
Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
The Company's ability to commence operations is contingent upon its
ability to identify a prospective target business.
B. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements 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.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
C. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.
D. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting
Standards Board of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("Statement 109"). Under Statement
109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax basis. 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. Under Statement 109, the
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date. There were no current or deferred income tax expense
or benefits due to the Company not having any material operations
for the period ending March 31, 2000.
NOTE 2 STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
A. Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares
of preferred stock at $.0001 par value, with such
designations, voting and other rights and preferences
as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.
B. Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares
of common stock at $.0001 par value. The Company
issued 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to TPG
Capital Corporation ("TPG") pursuant to Rule 506 for
an aggregate consideration of $500.
C. Additional Paid-In Capital
Additional paid-in capital at March 31, 2000
represents the fair value of the amount of
organization and professional costs incurred by TPG on
behalf of the Company. (See Note 3)
NOTE 3 AGREEMENT
On March 24, 1999, the Company signed an agreement
with TPG, a related entity (See Note 4). The
Agreement calls for TPG to provide the following
services, without reimbursement from the Company,
until the Company enters into a business combination
as described in Note 1A:
1. Preparation and filing of required documents with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. Location and review of potential target companies.
3. Payment of all corporate, organizational, and
other costs incurred by the Company.
NOTE 4 RELATED PARTIES
Legal counsel to the Company is a firm owned by a
director of the Company who also owns a controlling
interest in the outstanding stock of TPG. (See Note 3)
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company has registered its common stock on
a Form 10-SB registration statement filed pursuant to
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act") and Rule 12(g) thereof. The Company files with
the Securities and Exchange Commission periodic and
episodic reports under Rule 13(a) of the Exchange Act,
including quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual
reports Form 10-KSB.
The Company was formed to engage in a merger
with or acquisition of an unidentified foreign or
domestic private company which desires to become a
reporting company whose securities have been
registered under the Exchange Act. The Company may be
deemed to meet the definition of a "blank check"
company contained in Section (7)(b)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Management believes that there are perceived
benefits to being a reporting company which may be
attractive to foreign and domestic private companies.
These benefits are commonly thought to include
(1) the ability to use securities to make
acquisition of assets or businesses;
(2) increased visibility in the financial
community;
(3) the facilitation of borrowing from
financial institutions;
(4) improved trading efficiency;
(5) the potential for shareholder liquidity;
(6) greater ease in subsequently raising capital;
(7) compensation of key employees through
options for stock for which there may be a public market;
(8) enhanced corporate image; and,
(9) a presence in the United States capital market.
A private company which may be interested in a
business combination with the Company may include
(1) a company for which a primary purpose of
becoming a reporting company
is the use of its securities for the
acquisition of assets or businesses;
(2) a company which is unable to find an
underwriter of its securities or is
unable to find an underwriter of securities on
terms acceptable to it;
(3) a company which wishes to become a
reporting company with less dilution
of its common stock than would occur normally
upon an underwriting;
(4) a company which believes that it will be
able obtain investment capital on
more favorable terms after it has become a
reporting company;
(5) a foreign company which may wish an
initial entry into the United States
securities market;
(6) a company seeking one or more of the other
benefits believed to attach to a
reporting company.
The Company is authorized to enter into a
definitive agreement with a wide variety of private
businesses without limitation as to their industry or
revenues. It is not possible at this time to predict
with which private company, if any, the Company will
enter into a definitive agreement or what will be the
industry, operating history, revenues, future
prospects or other characteristics of that company.
As of the date hereof, management has not made
any final decision concerning or entered into any
final agreements for a business combination. When any
such final agreement is effected the Company will file
notice of such agreement or fact with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K. Persons reading
this Form 10-QSB are advised to see if the Company has
subsequently filed a Form 8-K.
The current shareholders of the Company have
agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer any of their
common stock of the Company except in connection with
a business combination.
The Company does not intend to trade its
securities in the secondary market until completion of
a business combination. It is anticipated that
following such occurrence the Company will take the
steps required to cause its common stock to be
admitted to quotation on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board
or, if it then meets the financial and other
requirements thereof, on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market,
National Market System or regional or national exchange.
