ITEM 1 BUSINESS
Corporate History
We were incorporated in Nevada on November 26, 1996, as Conceptual Technologies, Inc. On April 9, 1998, we changed our name to NovaMed, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of a medical device manufacturer and retailer. The medical device business was abandoned in October of 2000. On August 8, 2003, we acquired World Wide Auctioneers, Ltd. (World Wide), a British Virgin Island registered company and changed our name to WWA Group, Inc. On September 9, 2015, we changed our name to Genie Gateway.
On July 12, 2012 we enter into a Share Exchange Agreement (the SD Agreement), subject to shareholder approval, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Summit Digital, Inc. (Summit) from Summit Digital Holdings, Inc. in exchange for shares of our common stock. The SD Agreement provided that Summit would exchange 100 shares or 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Summit for 99,000,000 shares of our Common Stock, par value $001 per share.
As a result of the SD Agreement, we conduct some of our business operations under the name Summit Digital. Those operations primarily relate to acquiring existing underutilized cable systems in rural, semi-rural and gated community markets, aggregating them into a single multi-system operator structure and creating growth by upgrading management, improving efficiency, cutting costs, and fully exploiting the opportunities presented by bundling multiple services such as basic TV, premium TV, pay-per-view, broadband Internet, and voice telephony.
On April 9, 2015, we closed the transaction contemplated by an Agreement of Exchange of Stock (the Share Exchange Agreement) by and between us, AllCom, a Nevada corporation (AllCom) and Genie Gateway, a California corporation (Genie), dated as of January 30, 2015, as amended, pursuant to which AllCom transferred to us 100% of the common stock of Genie in exchange for the issuance of: (i) 1,257,989 shares of our Common Stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which shares equate to approximately 97% of our outstanding voting control (not including the shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which will be retired once we effect a reverse stock split of our common stock). As a result of closing this transaction, Genie became our wholly-owned subsidiary and now, in addition to managing our cable operations that we control through our subsidiary, Summit Digital, Inc., we are now also in the business of being a unified solutions company offering communications and payment processing on a single platform that blends business products and services - traditionally purchased from multiple vendors - into one seamless service, through Genie.
On September 10, 2015, our common stock underwent a 1-for-100 reverse stock split. The share numbers in this Annual Report are expressed in post-stock split numbers. The 5,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that were issued in the Share Exchange Transaction were automatically converted into 16,666,666 shares of our post-split common stock upon the reverse stock split going effective. In addition, upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split we retired our Series A Preferred Stock, which are no longer outstanding.
Our offices are located at 4570 South Eastern Ave., Suite 26-221, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119, and our telephone number is (702) 803-9000.
Business Overview
Our business is focused in two primary areas. Through our Genie Gateway, a California corporation, subsidiary, we focus on the business of being a unified solutions company offering unified communications and payment processing on a single platform that blends business products and services - traditionally purchased from multiple vendors - into one seamless service. Our focus for this business is in unbanked and underserved merchants and consumers, not supported by the traditional service providers.
Through Summit Digital, Inc., we acquire and service existing underutilized cable systems in rural, semi-rural and gated community markets, aggregating them into a single multi-system operator structure and creating growth by upgrading management, improving efficiency, cutting costs, and fully exploiting the opportunities presented by bundling multiple services such as basic TV, premium TV, pay-per-view, broadband Internet, and voice telephony.

Principal Products and Services
Genie Gateway
Through Genie Gateway we have developed a premiere platform for commerce, social networking, and communications targeting unbanked and under-banked markets. We service these markets through five primary products: the Genie Cashbox, GenieChecking, Check 22, Peer-to-Peer Payments, and the GenieCard.
The Genie Cashbox is a proprietary collection of several inventions combining a variety of distributed clients, a centralized cloud and Softswitch, which together integrate four powerful technologies: Telecommunications; Television; Internet and Electronic Banking into a single seamless service, on one platform.
Genie CashBox is an interactive multipoint hub, combining a suite of digital solutions, fully integrating the features of:
Telephone
Voice mail
Calling Card
Fax
Email (GenieMail)
SMS (Genie TXT)
Voice Messaging (VOX)
eWallet to send and receive real-time peer to peer payments (CashBox)
Virtual checking account (GenieCheck),
Both a closed loop and an open loop debit card (Genie CashBox Debit Card)
GenieChecks are fully negotiable checks, payable against the funds in your Genie CashBox. GenieChecks may be printed and deposited as an ordinary check, negotiated in person at a participating financial institution, sent as email attachments to third parties, printed and mailed to third parties by either by you or by the Genie platform, or printed and deposited electronically using any financial institutions smart-phone or other electronic deposit application.
Check 22 is a concept developed on the Check 21 federal law, which was enacted on October 28, 2003, and allows the recipient of an original paper check to create a digital version of the original check, into an electronic format called a substitute check. Check 22 is the next step in these types of transactions by changing the process from a debit (grab) transaction to a push transaction where each payer can decide when and how much they wish to pay. The Check 22 works by allowing a payment to be sent right away, to anyone the sender wants, at any time. The Check 22 program creates an electronic substitute check, in accordance with the Check 21 federal law, which is charged to the checking account provided by the sender.
Peer-to-Peer Payments sometime also referred to as Person-to-Person Payments or simply just P2P Payments, are a part of a new suite of services that is changing the financial services landscape.
Subscribers can send a P2P Payment from their CashBox to other subscribers or anyone with an email address from any internet enabled device.
The GenieCard combines the Genie Club, our closed loop member services, which utilizes the Genie CashBox; and Check22, the open loop service which lets members access their funds from any checking account, in any bank in the US.
Marketing
As a direct processor and a provider of alternative payment services; we are seeking relationships with independent sales organizations and other marketing partners, in which we provide ecommerce and other business services, our marketing partners provide the customers on a revenue sharing basis as residual income.
Manufacturing
We do not have any manufacturing expenses as we do not manufacture any products.
Competition
Currently we do not have a direct competitor as no one offers our suite of services as a unified solution. Customers wishing to get the suite of services we provide must get them from several service providers. In addition, many of our services are subject to patents filed with the U.S. Patent Office. Please see below.
Individually, some of principal products compete with other products, such as our peer-to-peer payment program, which competes with companies like PayPal and Venmo. To the extent we compete with types of companies, these competitors are larger, more established companies that have significantly greater financial resources than we do.
Intellectual Property
We have several patents and several patents pending regarding our primary products. Currently we have the following patents filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office:

Government Regulation
Since we do not provide any banking services we are not subject banking regulations. Certain of our transactions are conducted by utilizing services offered by banks but these services are covered by the banks which are regulated.
We also researched the possibility as to whether we are a money transmitter and are required to obtain a federal money transmitters license. The result of that research was that we are not currently a money transmitter, and therefore, we do not need a money transmitters license.
Employees
As of March 31, 2016 we have six (6)full-time employees, in the following positions: President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, bookkeeper, President of Summit Digital subsidiary, and bookkeeper/office administrator for Summit Digital subsidiary.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide a statement of risk factors. However, we believe this information may be valuable to our shareholders for this filing. We reserve the right to not provide risk factors in our future filings. Our primary risk factors and other considerations include:
We have a limited operating history and historical financial information upon which you may evaluate our performance.
You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stages of development. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our existing and new products. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business and impair the value of our common stock. Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not generate the positive cash flows or profits we anticipate in the future. We were incorporated in Nevada on November 26, 1996. Our current business focuses on developing the products associated with our unified solutions company, hiring management and staff personnel, contracting with distributors and leasing and servicing our products. Unanticipated problems, expenses and delays are frequently encountered in establishing a new business and developing new products. These include, but are not limited to, inadequate funding, lack of consumer acceptance, competition, product development, and inadequate sales and marketing. The failure by us to meet any of these conditions would have a materially adverse effect upon us and may force us to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given that we can or will ever operate profitably.
We may not be able to meet our future capital needs.
To date, we have not generated sufficient revenue to meet our capital needs, and we may not be able to in the future. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our ability to develop our products, cash flow from operations, and competing market developments. We will need additional capital in the near future. Any equity financings will result in dilution to our then-existing stockholders. Sources of debt financing may result in high interest expense. Any financing, if available, may be on unfavorable terms. If adequate funds are not obtained, we will be required to reduce or curtail operations.
If we cannot obtain additional funding, our product development and commercialization efforts may be reduced or discontinued and we may not be able to continue operations.
We have historically experienced negative cash flows from operations since our inception. We do not expect the negative cash flows from operations in 2016, but until we are able to generate higher revenues, we will continue to experience negative cash flows. As discussed in our financial statements, there exists substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
Product development efforts are highly dependent on the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand combined with our ability to raise additional capital to support our future operations through one or more methods, including but not limited to, issuing additional equity or debt.
In addition, we may also raise additional capital through additional equity offerings, and licensing our future products in development. While we will continue to explore these potential opportunities, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in raising sufficient capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or that we will be successful in licensing our future products. Although our financial situation is improving through increased operations, we believe we could have insufficient cash on hand to meet our obligations as they become due based on current assumptions. The uncertainties surrounding our future cash inflows have raised substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
Current economic conditions and capital markets are in a period of disruption and instability which could adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets, and thus adversely affect our business and liquidity.
The current economic conditions and financial crisis have had, and will continue to have, a negative impact on our ability to access the capital markets, and thus have a negative impact on our business and liquidity. The shortage of liquidity and credit combined with the substantial losses in worldwide equity markets could lead to an extended worldwide recession. We may face significant challenges if conditions in the capital markets do not improve. Our ability to access the capital markets has been and continues to be severely restricted at a time when we need to access such markets, which could have a negative impact on our business plans. Even if we are able to raise capital, it may not be at a price or on terms that are favorable to us. We cannot predict the occurrence of future disruptions or how long the current conditions may continue.
Because we face competition, we may not be able to operate profitably in our markets.
The market for our product is competitive. Although we have some protection through our pending patents, we may not have the resources, expertise or other competitive factors to compete successfully in the future. We expect to face additional competition from existing competitors and new market entrants in the future. Many of our competitors have greater name recognition and more established relationships in the industry than we do. As a result, these competitors may be able to:
·
develop and expand their product offerings more rapidly;
·
adapt to new or emerging changes in customer requirements more quickly;
·
take advantage of acquisition and other opportunities more readily; and
·
devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their products and adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we can.
If our products do not gain expected market acceptance, prospects for our sales revenue may be affected.
Sales of our product are dependent upon us gaining market approval in the unified solutions and alternative payment methods industry where we want to sell our products. This result can be expensive and time-consuming and there is no guarantee we will be successful in obtaining market acceptance and if we dont get such approval the market for our products will suffer. Additionally, even if we gain market approval, there is no guarantee our product will be chosen by a sufficient number of customers to provide us with sufficient revenues to pay our expenses.
If we are unable to recruit and retain qualified personnel, our business could be harmed.
Our growth and success highly depend on qualified personnel. Competition in the industry could cause us difficulty in recruiting or retaining a sufficient number of qualified technical personnel, which could harm our ability to develop new products. If we are unable to attract and retain necessary key talents, it would harm our ability to develop competitive product and retain good customers and could adversely affect our business and operating results.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls or discover material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or timely or to detect fraud, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
An effective internal control environment is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is an important part of our effort to prevent financial fraud. We are required to periodically evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls over financial reporting. Based on these evaluations, we may conclude that enhancements, modifications, or changes to internal controls are necessary or desirable. While management evaluates the effectiveness of our internal controls on a regular basis, these controls may not always be effective. There are inherent limitations on the effectiveness of internal controls, including collusion, management override, and failure of human judgment. In addition, control procedures are designed to reduce rather than eliminate business risks. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, or if management or our independent registered public accounting firm discovers material weaknesses in our internal controls, we may be unable to produce reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, including subjecting us to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any such actions could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or limit our access to capital.
Our common stock has been thinly traded and we cannot predict the extent to which a trading market will develop.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets. Our common stock is thinly traded compared to larger more widely known companies. Thinly traded common stock can be more volatile than common stock trading in an active public market. We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained after this offering.
Because we are subject to the penny stock rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.
Our common stock is traded on the OTC Markets. 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, like shares of our common stock, generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on NASDAQ. 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 nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must 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, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.
ITEM 1B UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
This Item is not applicable to us as we are not an accelerated filer, a large accelerated filer, or a well-seasoned issuer; however, we have not received written comments from the Commission staff regarding our periodic or current reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 within the last 180 days before the end of our last fiscal year.
ITEM 2 PROPERTIES
Genie Gateway subleases its offices in California at a cost of $1,659 per month and the offices encompass approximately 1,600 square feet. This sublease is on a month-to-month basis. We also rent approximately 400 square feet of executive office space in Las Vegas, Nevada. We share this space with a related party and we do no pay any rent to the related party.
Our Summit Digital subsidiary rents office space in Portland, Michigan. This office space is approximately 800 square feet and we pay $550 per month. Our lease is a month-to-month lease. This subsidiary also leases 400 square feet of office space in a professional office center at a rate of $350 per month. Our lease is a month-to-month lease.
ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not current involved in any legal proceedings.
In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.
We have not adopted any stock option or stock bonus plans.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
This Annual Report on Form 10-K of Genie Gateway for the year ended December 31, 2015 contains forward-looking statements, principally in this Section and Business. Generally, you can identify these statements because they use words like anticipates, believes, expects, future, intends, plans, and similar terms. These statements reflect only our current expectations. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy and actual results may differ materially from those we anticipated due to a number of uncertainties, many of which are unforeseen, including, among others, the risks we face as described in this filing. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which apply only as of the date of this quarterly report. To the extent that such statements are not recitations of historical fact, such statements constitute forward-looking statements that, by definition, involve risks and uncertainties. In any forward-looking statement where we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement of expectation of belief will be accomplished.
We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our 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 in this filing, as well as any cautionary language in this annual report, 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. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated, include, but are not limited to: our ability to successfully obtain financing for product acquisition; changes in product strategies; general economic, financial and business conditions; changes in and compliance with governmental regulations; changes in various tax laws; and the availability of key management and other personnel.
Overview
We were incorporated in Nevada on November 26, 1996, as Conceptual Technologies, Inc. On April 9, 1998, we changed our name to NovaMed, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of a medical device manufacturer and retailer. The medical device business was abandoned in October of 2000. On August 8, 2003, we acquired World Wide Auctioneers, Ltd. (World Wide), a British Virgin Island registered company and changed our name to WWA Group, Inc. On September 9, 2015, we changed our name to Genie Gateway.
On July 12, 2012 we enter into a Share Exchange Agreement (the SD Agreement), subject to shareholder approval, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Summit Digital, Inc. (Summit) from Summit Digital Holdings, Inc. in exchange for shares of our common stock. The SD Agreement provided that Summit would exchange 100 shares or 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Summit for 99,000,000 shares of our Common Stock, par value $001 per share.
As a result of the SD Agreement, we conduct some of our business operations under the name Summit Digital. Those operations primarily relate to acquiring existing underutilized cable systems in rural, semi-rural and gated community markets, aggregating them into a single multi-system operator structure and creating growth by upgrading management, improving efficiency, cutting costs, and fully exploiting the opportunities presented by bundling multiple services such as basic TV, premium TV, pay-per-view, broadband Internet, and voice telephony.
On April 9, 2015, we closed the transaction contemplated by an Agreement of Exchange of Stock (the Share Exchange Agreement) by and between us, AllCom, a Nevada corporation (AllCom) and Genie Gateway, a California corporation (Genie), dated as of January 30, 2015, as amended, pursuant to which AllCom transferred to us 100% of the common stock of Genie in exchange for the issuance of: (i) 1,257,989 shares of our Common Stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which shares equate to approximately 97% of our outstanding voting control (not including the shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which were retired upon the effectiveness of our reverse stock split of our common stock on September 9, 2015). As a result of closing this transaction, Genie became our wholly-owned subsidiary and now, in addition to managing our cable operations that we control through our subsidiary, Summit Digital, Inc., we are now also in the business of being a unified communications and payment processing platform that blends business products and services - traditionally purchased from multiple vendors - into one seamless service, through Genie.
On September 9, 2015, our common stock underwent a 1-for-100 reverse stock split. The share numbers in this Annual Report are expressed in post-stock split numbers. The 5,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that were issued in the Share Exchange Transaction were automatically converted into 16,666,666 shares of our post-split common stock upon the reverse stock split going effective.

Operating Income (Loss)
We had operating loss of $3,432 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to an operating loss of $258,725 for the year ended December 31, 2014. This difference was largely attributable to royalty revenue of $300,000 in 2015 that we did not have in 2014. The royalty revenue is entirely from the intellectual property our Genie Gateway subsidiary licenses to AllCom, our largest shareholder and an entity controlled by our officers and directors as a group. Our revenue from cable internet sales in 2015 was similar to 2014. We expect our operating income (loss) to continue to be significantly impacted by our acquisition of Genie Gateway.

Revenue
Our revenue from the year ended December 31, 2015 was $803,583 compared to $524,163 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 included $503,583 from our Summit Digital subsidiary and $300,000 in royalty revenue from our Genie Gateway subsidiary, the latter received from AllCom, our largest shareholder, for intellectual property we license to it. The revenue from our Summit Digital subsidiary was the result of sales of Summit Digitals bundled services such as basic TV, premium TV, pay-per-view, broadband Internet, and voice telephony. Our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014 was derived entirely from the operations of Summit Digital.
Cost of Goods Sold
Our cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $251,421, compared to $309,644 for the same period in 2014. The cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2015 was entirely related to the revenues generated from Summit Digital, Inc. In future periods we expect our cost of goods sold to increase as a result of our acquisition of Genie Gateway on April 9, 2015.
General, Selling and Administrative Expenses
General, selling and administrative expenses were $372,116 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $240,766 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our primary general and administrative expenses for the period in 2015 were wages and consulting, which were approximately $221,853. The increase in our general, selling and administrative expenses was largely due to the increases related to our acquisition of Genie Gateway. We expect our general, selling and administrative expenses to increase significantly in future periods due to our acquisition of Genie Gateway.
Salaries and Wages
Our expenses related to salaries and wages were $169,626 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $216,723 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in our salaries and wages for the year ended December 31, 2015 was a result of the fact that in the first quarter of 2014 we had accrued $100,000 in aggregate salaries for two of our former officers and we did not have that accrual in 2015. However, we do expect our salaries and wages will increase in future periods as a result of the acquisition Genie Gateway.
Depreciation
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we had depreciation of $13,852, primary related to office equipment and cable and wireless plant assets. We had a similar expense of $15,755 for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Interest Income/Expense
We had interest expense $2,656 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to interest expense of $173,199 for the year ended December 31, 2014. During the year ended December 31, 2015 interest expense primarily related to our line of credit with Huntington National Bank, while the interest expense for the same period in 2014 primarily related to convertible debt we had outstanding. The significant change in interest income in 2014 compared to interest expense in 2015 was primarily due to the fact we retired certain convertible debt and related derivative liabilities in the second quarter of 2015.
Gain (Loss) on Derivative Liability
During the year ended December 31, 2015 we had $121 gain on derivative liability compared to $90,118 in the year ended December 31, 2014, because we retired our convertible debt and had very little derivative liabilities outstanding during in 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the $90,118 non-cash gain on derivative liabilities we recognized was due primarily to the change in fair value of the conversion option on convertible debt which was recorded as a derivative liability.
Other Income (Expense)
During the year ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had other expense of $39,958 and $24,593, respectively. These amounts were related to adjustments to correctly state balance sheet accounts.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Introduction
During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of December 31, 2015 was $75,144 and our monthly cash flow burn rate is approximately $15,000. As a result, we have short term cash needs. These needs are being satisfied through proceeds from the sales of our securities and short terms promissory notes. We currently believe we will be able to satisfy our cash needs from our revenues within the next year but there is no guarantee will be successful in generating sufficient operations and/or satisfying these needs through the proceeds from the sales of our securities.
Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, are as follows:

Our current assets increased by $873,468 as of December 31, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014. The increase in our current assets between the two periods was attributed to an increase in our cash on hand of $63,311 and an increase of $796,748 in other current assets related to stock agreements totaling $800,000.
Our current liabilities decreased by $104,459, as of December 31, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014. This decrease was due to decreases in our accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible notes payable (net), partially offset by a slight increase in our current portion of long term debt. As a result, our total liabilities decreased by $92,584.
In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we may be required to raise capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.
Cash Requirements
We had cash available as of December 31, 2015 of $75,144 and $11,833 on December 31, 2014. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate of approximately $15,000, we will need raise money from the sales of our securities, to fund operations.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operations
We had net cash used by operating activities of $869,686 for the year ended December 31, 2015, as compared to $200,601 for the year ended December 31, 2014. In 2015, the net cash used for operating activities consisted primarily of our net income of $33,991, adjusted primarily by depreciation and amortization of $12,102 and changes in operating assets and liabilities consisting of increases in accounts receivable of $8,409, prepaid expenses of $5,000 and other current assets of $796,748, and decreases in accounts payable $29,278, accrued expenses of $60,579, and note payable of $15,765. In 2014, the net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of our net loss of $317,213, adjusted primarily by depreciation and amortization of $15,755, amortization of discount of $75,474 and gain on re-measurement of derivative of $90,118, and changes in operating assets and liabilities consisting of increases in accounts receivable of $7,965, prepaid expenses of $10,500 and other current assets of $1,281, and decreases of accounts payable of $31,906 and accrued expenses of $63,849.

ITEM 7A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 8 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
For a list of financial statements and supplementary data filed as part of this Annual Report, see the Index to Financial Statements beginning at page F-1 of this Annual Report.
ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There are no items required to be reported under this Item.
ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined) in Exchange Act Rules 13a 15(c) and 15d 15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who are our principal executive officer and principal financial officers, respectively, concluded that, as of the end of the period ended December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective (1) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (2) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to us, including our chief executive and chief financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Accounting Officer) do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. No matter how well conceived and operated, our disclosure controls and procedures can provide only a reasonable level of assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the company's operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.
(b) Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Financial Officer), and effected by our 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 in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:
| Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and any disposition of our assets;
|
| Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
| Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Management has identified the following three material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:
1. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2. We have not documented our internal controls. We have limited policies and procedures that cover the recording and reporting of financial transactions and accounting provisions. As a result we may be delayed in our ability to calculate certain accounting provisions. While we believe these provisions are accounted for correctly in the attached audited financial statements our lack of internal controls could lead to a delay in our reporting obligations. We were required to provide written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting beginning with our fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
3. Effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted written code of business conduct and ethics that governs our employees, officers, and directors was not in place. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to our employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, our Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.
To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
(c) Remediation of Material Weaknesses
In order to remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls, we hope to hire additional qualified and experienced personnel to assist us in remedying this material weakness.
(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There are no changes to report during our fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2015.
ITEM 9B OTHER INFORMATION
There are no events required to be disclosed by the Item.

From time to time, one or more of the Companys affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with the Companys business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of the Company and other businesses with which the Companys affiliates are associated. The Companys affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither the Company nor its shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities. Further, because the Company intends to transact business with some of its officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of its officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. The Company believes that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to the Company as those available from unrelated third parties.
With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, the Company has adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of the Companys disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to the Company at the time it is authorized or approved by its directors.
The Companys policies and procedures regarding transactions involving potential conflicts of interest are not in writing. The Company understands that it will be difficult to enforce its policies and procedures and will rely and trust its officers and directors to follow the policies and procedures. The Company will implement our policies and procedures by requiring the officer or director who is not in compliance with its policies and procedures to remove himself and the other officers and directors will decide how to implement the policies and procedures, accordingly.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of its knowledge, none of the Companys directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five years that resulted in a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. Except as set forth in our discussion below in Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence Transactions with Related Persons, none of its directors, director nominees, or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates, or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Companys directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Companys equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. During the most recent fiscal year, to the Companys knowledge, the following delinquencies occurred:
Name | No. of Late Reports | No. of Transactions Reported Late | No. of Failures to File |
Thomas E. Skala | 0 | 0 | 1 |
Mark A. Newgreen | 0 | 0 | 1 |
Randall L. Skala | 0 | 0 | 1 |
Stuart C. Scamman | 0 | 0 | 1 |
Board Meetings and Committees
During the 2014, 2015 and 2016 fiscal year to date, the Board of Directors met on a regular basis and took written action on numerous other occasions. All the members of the Board of Directors attended the meetings. The written actions were by unanimous consent.
Code of Ethics
The Company has not adopted a written code of ethics, because it believes and understands that its officers and directors adhere to and follow ethical standards without the necessity of a written policy.
Audit Committee
The Company does not currently have an audit committee.
Compensation Committee
The Company does not currently have a compensation committee.

ITEM 13 - CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
On April 9, 2015, we closed the transaction contemplated by an Agreement of Exchange of Stock (the Share Exchange Agreement) by and between us, AllCom, a Nevada corporation (AllCom) and Genie Gateway, a California corporation (Genie), dated as of January 30, 2015, as amended, pursuant to which AllCom transferred to us 100% of the common stock of Genie in exchange for the issuance of: (i) 1,257,989 shares of our Common Stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which shares equate to approximately 97% of our outstanding voting control (not including the shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which were retired once our reverse stock split of our common stock went effective on September 9, 2015). As a result of closing this transaction, Genie became our wholly-owned subsidiary and now, in addition to managing our cable operations that we control through our subsidiary, Summit Digital, Inc., we are now also in the business of being a unified solutions company offering communications and payment processing on a single platform that blends business products and services - traditionally purchased from multiple vendors - into one seamless service, through Genie.
AllCom is now our largest shareholder and our officers and directors, as a group, control approximately 82% of AllComs outstanding voting rights.
We currently have a licensing arrangement with AllCom, under which AllCom is required to pay us $100,000 or 50% of gross profit, whichever is greater, per quarter in exchange for licensing the intellectual property related to our products and services. AllCom plans to market those products to certain industries where we do not plan on selling our products.
On September 9, 2015, our common stock underwent a 1-for-100 reverse stock split. The share numbers in this Annual Report are expressed in post-stock split numbers. The 5,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that were issued in the Share Exchange Transaction were automatically converted into 16,666,666 shares of our post-split common stock upon the reverse stock split going effective. In addition, upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split we retired our Series A Preferred Stock, which are no longer outstanding.
Corporate Governance
As of December 31, 2015, our Board of Directors consisted of Thomas E. Skala, Mark A. Newgreen, Randall L. Skala and Stuart C. Scamman. As of December 31, 2015, we did not have any directors that qualified as independent directors as the term is used in NASDAQ rule 5605(a)(2).

The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors before the respective services were rendered.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Pinaki and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Pinakis independence.

To The Board of Directors

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Genie Gateway and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of WWA Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
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 recurring losses from operations that raises a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Business and Organization
The following unaudited consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations give effect to WWA
Agreement of Exchange of Stock (the Share Exchange Agreement) by and between us, AllCom, a Nevada corporation (AllCom) and Genie Gateway, a California corporation (Genie), dated as of January 30, 2015, as amended, and consummated April 9, 2015 pursuant to which AllCom transferred to us 100% of the common stock of Genie in exchange for the issuance of: (i) 125,798,890 shares of our Common Stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which shares equate to approximately 97% of our outstanding voting control (not including the shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which will be retired once we effect a reverse stock split of our common stock). As a result of closing this transaction, Genie became our wholly-owned subsidiary and now, in addition to managing our cable operations that we control through our subsidiary, Summit Digital, Inc., we are now also in the unified solutions business of being a unified communications and payment processing platform that blends business products and services - traditionally purchased from multiple vendors - into one seamless service, through Genie.
The acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Genie Gateway is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their historical book value and no goodwill has been recognized, as required by the rules and regulations of the SEC.
On June 26, 2015 the Company filed its Definitive 14-C document with the Securities and Exchange Commission to recapitalize The Company, including but not limited to, reducing the number of authorized common shares from 800M to 500M shares, a 100 to 1 reverse stock split of its outstanding common shares, the elimination of Class A preferred stock, and changing the name of the Company from WWA Group Inc. to Genie Gateway. The Company also filed the necessary documents with FINRA requesting to change its stock trading symbol from WWAG to GGWY. The name change and reverse stock split went effective with FINRA on September 9, 2015. The symbol change went effective in the middle of October 2015.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2015 and 2015, there were no cash and cash equivalents held with a bank as compensating balance against borrowing arrangements.
Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company keeps a very tight credit and collection policy. Late, or no pays are assessed each month. Determination of collectability is assessed and service shut off when determination is adverse. Accounts receivable
balances are written off immediately after determination has been made. The Companys trade accounts receivable was $32,755 and $24,346 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments as defined by ASC 820, disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, include cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which due to the short maturity of these financial instruments approximates fair value at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Impaired Asset Policy
The Company has adopted ASC 360, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In complying with these standards, the company reviews its long-lived assets to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not be recoverable. The company determines impairment by comparing the undiscounted future value cash flows estimated to be generated by its assets to their respective carrying amounts whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may not be recoverable.
Basic (Loss) per Common Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Companys net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Companys net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during any of the periods shown.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are delivered to and accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets per the following table. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Provision for Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company applies ASC 740, which requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and the Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be recovered
The Company adopted ASC 740, at the beginning of fiscal year 2008. This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions using a more-likely-than-not approach, requiring the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. The adoption of ASC 740 had no material impact on the Companys financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial position, or statements.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses, and (2) seeking out and completing a merger with an existing operating company. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 INCOME TAXES
The calculation of the Companys tax provision involves the application of complex tax rules and regulations in multiple jurisdictions throughout the world. The Company makes estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments are made in the calculation of tax credits, benefits and deductions, and in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities arising from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes, as well as tax liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions. Significant changes to these estimates may result in an increase or a decrease to the Companys tax provision in a subsequent period.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only when it is more likely than not that these positions will be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. The Company uses the flow-through method to account
for investment tax credits. Under this method, a credit is recognized as a reduction of income tax expense in the year the credit is utilized.
NOTE 5 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company leases its office facilities under operating leases on a month to month basis.
NOTE 7 BUSINESS COMBINATION
Acquisitions made by the Company are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under this method, the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Companys financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition.
NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with ASC 855, Company management reviewed all material events through the date of this filing, and there are no material subsequent events to report other than those reported.
