ESTATE COFFEE HOLDINGS CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the six months ended February 28, 2010
Note 1- Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Estate Coffee Holdings Corp. (formerly SLAP, Inc.) (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. Therefore, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2009.
On November 2, 2009, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a forward split of its authorized and issued shares of common stock on the basis of nine shares for each one share authorized and issued. The record date for the distribution to stockholders was November 2, 2009 and the effective date for the distribution to stockholders was November 9, 2009. The effect of the stock split has been recognized retroactively in the stockholders’ deficit accounts as of March 19, 2007, and in all share and per share data in the financial statements.
On January 10, 2010, the Company entered into a formal agreement (the “Agreement”) with the 100% owners of Estate Coffee Holdings Ltd. (formerly Sumbody Coffee Company) (“ECH”), a private company incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Maryland whereby the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of ECH in exchange for the issuance of 900,000 restricted shares of the Company to Sean Tan, ECH’s primary creditor, in settlement of a promissory note between ECH and Mr. Tan. ECH had previously acquired 20% of the shares of DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd. (“DTS8”), a Hong Kong company which operates under a Wholly Owned Foreign Entity in the Republic of China, from Mr. Tan in exchange for a promissory note in the amount of $60,000 plus interest at the rate of 6% per annum.DTS8 is a coffee roasting operation located in Mainland China. Pursuant to the Agreement ECH became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The shares were issued to Mr. Tan on January 21, 2010 which is the closing date of the transaction. See Note 3.
On February 8, 2010 the Company changed its name from SLAP, Inc. to Estate Coffee Holdings Corp. to reflect the initiative to operate in the coffee business. It is under ECH, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, that the Company will undertake the majority of its business activities in the coffee industry.
The Company’s oil and gas operations are currently under review for possible development, but no revenue is expected to be generated from those operations in the immediate future.
The interim consolidated financial statements present the balance sheet, statements of operations and cash flows of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ECH. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The interim financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of February 28, 2010, and the results of operations, and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
For the six months ended February 28, 2010
Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2009, the FASB issued modification to ASC 805-20, “Business combinations-Sub topic 20 Identifiable Assets and Liabilities, and Any Noncontrolling Interests”, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies be recognized at fair value if fair value can be reasonably estimated. If fair value of such an asset or liability cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability would generally be recognized in accordance with ASC 450 (“ASC 450”) “Contingencies”. Further, ASC 805-20 requires that a systematic and rational basis for subsequently measuring and accounting for the assets or liabilities arising from contingencies be developed based on their nature. The modifications to ASC 805-20 are effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations whose acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Company complied with the standard in the accounting treatment of acquisition of ECH which occurred in January 2010. There is no contingency identified in the business acquisition.
In June 2009 the FASB established the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification" or "ASC") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants.

Note 3 – Acquisition of Estate Coffee Holdings Ltd. (“ECH”)
|
On January 10, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Garey Reynolds and Errol Gillespie, the 100% owners of Estate Coffee Holdings Ltd. (ECH), a private company incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Maryland, whereby the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of ECH in exchange for the issuance of 900,000 restricted shares of the Company to ECH’s primary creditor, Sean Tan, in settlement of a promissory note in the amount of $60,000 plus accrued interest in the amount of $1,115, and no further consideration other than an additional $1,885 of interest as the value of hte stock given exceeded the debt canceled. The acquisition was completed on January 21, 2010. ECH will operate its business as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will undertake the majority of its business activities in the coffee industry through ECH. ECH currently holds 20% of the shares of DTS8, a coffee roaster operating in mainland China, which is majority controlled by Sean Tan who holds the remaining 80% of the shares of DTS8. See Note 5.
|
|
The acquisition transaction has been valued at $63,000, the fair market value of 900,000 shares issued on January 21, 2010. FASB ASC 845-10-30-1 provides that non-monetary transactions should be valued based on the fair value of the asset given up, or the fair value of the asset received, if it is more clearly evident. The quoted market value of the acquirer’s common stock on acquisition date (January 21, 2010), was $0.07/share which per share value was used to evaluate the transaction. Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, the total consideration paid by the Company of $63,000 entirely offset the debt owed by ECH to Sean Tan, and therefore, the acquisition cost of ECH was zero (0).
|
|
At the time of acquisition, ECH had negative shareholder’s equity of $27,791. This amount was allocated to goodwill and was written off pursuant to the Company’s determination to apply an impairment test. Therefore, the Company incurred a loss on impairment of goodwill on the acquisition date in the amount of $27,791. Allocation of the net assets acquired is presented below:

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
For the six months ended February 28, 2010
Note 4 – Common Stock
The Board of Directors determined on October 9, 2009 to forward split both the authorized and issued shares of the Company on the basis of nine (9) for one (1). The authorized capital of the Company pursuant to the forward split was increased to 675,000,000 and the Company issued as a dividend to stockholders of record as at November 2, 2009, a total of eight additional shares for each share currently held, bringing the issued and outstanding shares of the Company to 25,200,000. The record date was originally set as October 22, 2009. On October 20, 2009, after a review of the requirements of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") relating to forward splits, the Company amended the record date to November 2, 2009 to comply with the FINRA requirements. The effective date for the forward split and the distribution to stockholders was November 9, 2009.
On January 21, 2010, the Company issued 900,000 restricted shares of the Company to Sean Tan, a creditor of ECH in full settlement of a promissory note in the amount of $60,000 plus accrued interest in the amount of $1,115. At the date of transaction, the Company valued the stock issued for the acquisition at the current trading price of the Company’s stock which was $0.07 per share, for a value of $63,000. The Company booked $900 to common stock and $62,100 to additional paid in capital. The transaction resulted in an additional interest expense of $1,885 recorded by ECH.
Note 5 – Investment in DTS8
On September 30, 2009, ECH entered into an agreement with Sean Tan to purchase two (2) ordinary shares, being twenty (20%) percent of the total issued and outstanding shares in the capital stock of DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd. (DTS8), a company owned by Sean Tan, and incorporated in Hong Kong, China. The Company purchased the shares by way of a demand promissory note for sixty thousand dollars ($60,000). The promissory note had an interest rate of 6% per annum. The promissory note, plus accrued interest in the amount of $1,115 was settled in full on January 21, 2010 by the issuance of 900,000 restricted shares of the Company.
ECH applied the equity method to book the investment. As of January 21, 2010, the net loss from investment in DTS8 totaled $20,519 which reduced ECH’s investment to $39,481 immediately prior to the Company acquiring ECH. From January 21, 2010 to the period ended February 28, 2010, an additional investment loss from operations of DTS8 in the amount of $889 as to our 20% interest was recognized in the consolidated income statements of the Company.
Note 6 – Related Party Transactions
During the six month period ended February 28, 2010, the Company was invoiced a total of $36,358 by two stockholders of the Company for accounting, professional fees and consulting fees related to our review of additional acquisitions for the Company. An invoice in the amount of $10,108 was invoiced to the Company by a company controlled by a stockholder of the Company. The stockholder that invoiced $26,250 is no longer a stockholder of the Company as at the date of this financial statement.
Prior to business acquisition as of January 21, 2010, Mr. Garey Reynolds, a director of ECH, paid certain expenses incurred by ECH in the amount of $330. The transactions were booked as reimbursable expenses and are reflected in the consolidated accounts payable.
On January 29, 2010, the Company entered into a global distribution agreement with Coffee Solutions Ltd. whereby the Company was granted the rights to market and distribute CSL roasted Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "intends", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential", or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, among others, the following: international, national and local general economic and market conditions: demographic changes; the ability of the Company to sustain, manage or forecast its growth; the ability of the Company to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other factors referenced in this and previous filings.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity or performance. Except as required by applicable laws, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Given these uncertainties, readers of this Form 10-Q and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.
All dollar amounts stated herein are in US dollars unless otherwise indicated.
The management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2009, and 2008, together with notes thereto. As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we", "us", "our", and the "Company" mean Estate Coffee Holdings Corp., unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
Business Development
SLAP, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) was incorporated on March 19, 2007, in the State of Nevada as an oil and gas exploration company. The Company drilled an initial well on its oil and gas leases which was deemed a dry hole.
On November 2, 2009, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a forward split of its authorized and issued shares of common stock on the basis of nine shares for each one share authorized and issued. The record date for the distribution to stockholders was November 2, 2009 and the effective date for the distribution to stockholders was November 9, 2009. Upon completion of the forward split the authorized shares were increased to 675,000,000 common shares.
On January 10, 2010, the Company entered into a formal agreement (the “Agreement”) with the 100% owners of Estate Coffee Holdings Ltd. (formerly Sumbody Coffee Company) (“ECH”), a private company incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Maryland whereby the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of ECH in exchange for the issuance of 900,000 restricted shares of the Company to Sean Tan, ECH’s primary creditor, in settlement of a promissory note between ECH and Mr. Tan. ECH had previously acquired 20% of the shares of DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd. (“DTS8”), a Hong Kong company which operates under a Wholly Owned Foreign Entity in the Republic of China, from Mr. Tan in exchange for a promissory note in the amount of $60,000 plus interest at the rate of 6% per annum.DTS8 is a coffee roasting operation located in Mainland China. Pursuant to the Agreement ECH became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The shares were issued to Mr. Tan on January 21, 2010 which is the closing date of the transaction.
On February 8, 2010 the Company changed its name from SLAP, Inc. to ECH to reflect the initiative to operate in the coffee business. It is under Estate Coffee Holdings Ltd., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, that the Company will undertake of the majority of its business activities in the coffee industry.
Current Operations
The Company currently has oil and gas assets in addition to its ownership of ECH and operations in the coffee industry.
Management of the Company is currently evaluating the oil and gas assets to determine whether they should continue to hold the assets or to dispose of them and concentrate on the business generated by ECH and other business opportunities in the coffee industry that may present themselves to the Company.
ECH has commenced its business operations through its acquisition of a 20% interest in DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd., which represents an entry into the growing China market. Due to its minority ownership in DTS8, ECH will not be required to consolidate the operations of DTS8 but will reflect a current valuation of the holding on its quarterly and annual financial statements based on the assets as represented on the financial statements of DTS8. ECH will not have any portion of the revenues generated by DTS8 and its operations but will receive as income its 20% pro-rata share of any dividends issued by DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd.
DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd. (“DTS8”) is incorporated in Hong Kong, and is owned 80% by Sean Tan, and 20% by ECH. DTS8 is developing the business in China through a factory and accompanying office, as well as a model coffee shop that is being established.
With a view to expanding business operations in the coffee industry, on January 29, 2010, the Company negotiated and entered into a global distribution agreement with Coffee Solutions Ltd. whereby the Company was granted the rights to market and distribute CSL roasted Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee. The Company may assign this agreement to its wholly-owned subsidiary, ECH in the future.
Liquidity & Capital Resources
As of February 28, 2010, our cash balance was $56,199, and we had no revenues as compared to a cash balance of $113,334 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009 with no revenues Our accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $12,838 at fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, to $33,136 at our six month period ended February 28, 2010. This increase was primarily due to amounts incurred for professional and consulting expenses due to increased business activities resulting from the acquisition of ECH. As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, we believe we have sufficient funds to undertake our current operations, subject to no increased activity in either our oil and gas business or the coffee business. We have sufficient funds to pay our current expenses as they come due, however should we execute growth in either sector of our operations we will be required to raise additional capital in order to ramp up operations. At this time we cannot say how much additional capital may be required.
There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain funds required for our continued operations once we have expended our current funds of $56,199. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, we may not be able to meet our obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease operations.
The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
Results of Operations
For the six month period ended February 28, 2010, operating expenses were $70,602 as compared to $12,138 for the corresponding six month period ending February 28, 2009. This increase was due primarily to professional service fees, which increased to $61,019 at the six month period ended February 28, 2010 as compared to $10,490 for the corresponding six month period ended February 28, 2009, and an increase in office and administrative expenses which
amounted to $9,583 at the six month period ended February 28, 2010 as compared to $1,648 for the corresponding six month period ended February 28, 2009. The increases in both professional fees and office and administration were as a result of operations of the Company during the review of the ECH acquisition and costs related to the acquisition for professional fees. As well, the costs related to the preparation of filing materials for the forward split and name change and the preparation of the Company’s AGM increased both professional fees and office and administration fees.
During the six month period ended February 28, 2010, the Company incurred losses of $27,791 related to the acquisition of ECH which when combined with the operational losses increased the Company’s reported net loss for the six month period ended February 28, 2010 to $99,256 as compared to a net loss of $12,138 for the six month period ended February 28, 2009.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
