Item 1. Business

 

Company Overview

 

We were incorporated as “ePhoto Image Inc.” (“ePhoto”) on September 20, 2007, in the State of Nevada for the purpose of developing digital image transaction software and a website through which visual artists can sell original photographic content.

 

Business of Company

 

We are engaged in the business of developing digital image transaction software and a website through which visual artists can sell low-cost, original photographic content specifically to both low-end and high-end users of stock photographic images, such as newsletter and magazine publishers and website designers based primarily in Asia. We hope that such a website, once established, will provide photographers, illustrators, graphic designers, animators, cinematographers and other visual artists a low-priced, online venue to sell their work to users of stock photographic images. Unlike many stock image houses presently operating in the market, our objective is to not purchase large portfolios of stock images from a select group of established photographers. Instead, we intend that photographers affiliated with our company will maintain ownership of their stock images. We plan to generate revenue by charging affiliate photographers a commission on the images they sell through our website. The images sold on our website will primarily feature Asian themes. We are currently in the process of designing and developing our software and our website, which will utilize the software to manage our database of images, display available images, and manage all associated transactions. We are continually refining this software and our website through research and trial runs. When we are satisfied that our software, website, and products will compete effectively in the Visual Content Industry by being the most cost-efficient and accessible software and website to offer a diverse selection of images from Asia, we will conduct the public launch of the website for use by visual artists and their potential customers.

 

We have not successfully launched our website or generated any revenues to date. The success of our business is dependent on building our website, acquiring artist images, and making commission from sales of artwork on our website. If we are unable to successfully implement our business plan, our business will fail and you will lose your entire investment in our company.

 

Our offices are located at No. 181 Dragon Villas, No. 8 Shun An Nan Road, Shunyi County, Beijing, China. Our telephone number is 0086-137-175-28189.

 

Stock and Microstock Photography

 

Stock photography consists of existing photographs that can be licensed for specific uses. Publishers, advertising agencies, graphic artists, and others use stock photography to fulfill the needs of their creative assignments. A customer who uses stock photography instead of hiring a photographer can save time and money. Stock images can be presented in searchable online databases, purchased online, and delivered via download or email. A collection of stock photography may also be called a photo archive, picture library, photo bank, or image bank, as modern stock photography distributors often carry stills, video, and illustrations. Images are filed at an agency that negotiates licensing fees on the photographer’s behalf in exchange for a percentage, or in some cases owns the images outright. This is increasingly done online, especially with newer microstock models. Pricing is determined by the size of audience or readership, how long the image is to be used, the country or region where the images will be used and whether royalties are due to the image creator or owner. Often, an image can be licensed for less than $200, or in the case of the microstock photography websites as little as $1.

 

Rights Managed stock photography involves an individual licensing agreement, which is negotiated for each use and details the specific conditions under which the image can be used. Royalty-free stock photography offers a photo buyer the ability to use an image an unlimited number of times and in any medium for a single license fee.

Table of Contents

Microstock photography is an offshoot of traditional stock photography. What defines a company as a microstock photography company is that they 1) source their images almost exclusively via the Internet, 2) do so from a wider range of photographers than the traditional stock agencies (including a willingness to accept images from amateurs and hobbyists), and 3) sell their images at a very low rate (anywhere from $.20 - $10) for a royalty-free image. Many microstock sites also sell vector art, and some sell Flash animations and video, as well as still images.

 

Each microstock company uses a different pricing and payment scheme. Photographers can upload the same pictures on multiple sites or, with some agencies, become an exclusive supplier and receive an increased commission and additional benefits. There is no fee to post photos on a microstock site. However, microstock companies do not accept all artists or all photographs. Each employs a team of reviewers who check every picture submitted for technical quality, as well as artistic and commercial merit. Photographers add keywords that help potential buyers filter and find pictures of interest.

 

Visual Content Industry

 

The visual content industry supplies images to a varied and growing customer base, ranging from individual consumers to major multinational corporations. Market segments include graphic designers, art directors and art buyers at advertising agencies, marketing and communications professionals, Web and new media designers, newspaper, magazine, book, music and video publishers, and broadcast and media production companies. In addition, emerging market segments include business users, who are not graphic designers or other professional users of images, such as managerial and sales professionals and small or home office (SOHO) users. Images are used to communicate messages in a wide variety of applications, including print, electronic and broadcast advertising, direct mail and marketing brochures, educational and training publications, books, magazines, newspapers, corporate communications and annual reports, motion pictures, broadcasting, CD-ROM products, sites on the Internet, other online uses, sales and in-house presentations, and various consumer uses.

 

The worldwide digital content market, including the market for stock digital photographic images, reached $2.9 billion annually in 2004. The visual content industry has grown substantially in recent years. This growth may be attributed to several factors, including greater appreciation of the value of images for conveying, symbolizing and reinforcing marketing and editorial messages visually; technological innovations that have made it easier and cheaper to select, use, edit and distribute images; and a proliferation of communications channels, particularly via the Internet and in the cable and satellite broadcasting industry. The video footage sector is expected to continue to grow as technological developments in cable and satellite broadcasting and new media industries lead to a major increase in demand for stock and archival footage.

 

A number of technological advances have contributed to recent developments in the visual content industry and to increased demand for digital images. These advances include:

Our Products

 

The rising demand for stock photographic images within the growing visual content industry in conjunction with the widespread and increasing use of the Internet in general and as a source for visual content have resulted in what we anticipate will be a highly receptive potential market for our website and our products. The vast pool of potential consumers of stock photographic images within the visual content industry as well as the many prospective consumers working outside of the visual content industry are all seeking high-quality, affordable images from visual artists who, in turn, are seeking ways to reach and sell their work to a wide range of customers at fair-market value. The subject matter of our stock photographic images will focus primarily on Asian themes and will target an Asian audience. This specialization offers several benefits, including a less complicated keyword image search.

 

To date, we have reserved a domain name at www.ePhotoImage.com. Our website is currently under construction. We are currently in the process of developing the site to manage a database of images, display available images, and manage all associated transactions with artist affiliates. We are continually refining this software and our website through research and trial runs. When we are satisfied that our software, website, and products will compete effectively in the Visual Content Industry by being the most cost-efficient and accessible software and website to offer a diverse selection of images from Asia, we will conduct the public launch of the website for use by visual artists and their potential customers.

 

Once established, we anticipate that our website will be an online stock image transaction site, similar to other online stock image agency websites in that it provides the opportunity for corporations and individuals to purchase image usage rights online and to take digital delivery of the image electronically. Our strategy is to differ from many online stock image companies, however, in that we plan to allow contributing photographers the ability to retain ownership of their images. We are in the process of developing an affiliate-based website, branded “ePhotoImage.com,” where our images will be available for viewing, purchasing and downloading. We plan to solicit photographic originals from photographers and create an inventory of stock images available for online viewing. Our plan is that the website will include still photographic images, illustrations, clip art and video clips. Customers should be able to freely browse our inventory of stock images and download thumbnail sketch samples of stock images. However, customers must pay the contributing photographer prior to downloading usable images. We plan to generate revenues by charging our affiliated photographers a sales commission of approximately 30% on all sales transacted on our website.

 

Our business plan is to offer digital product, transaction, and delivery. We believe the advantage of our digital approach is a significant reduction in costs. Unlike companies that sell physical products (including photographs and other artwork), our products, once established, will be digital in nature and will not require facilities to warehouse products, and consequently no staff is required to manage inventory and prepare orders. Likewise, financial transactions and the delivery of purchases will be accomplished digitally, so no sales and fulfillment staff will be required and no shippers, drivers or vehicles are needed. Staff will still be required in the areas of administration, marketing, and support. Whenever possible, information we gain from staff activities will be used to further automate our processes.

We are in the process of refining the format for our website, which will be integral to its success. We are designing and developing our website by conducting research to improve on quality and cost. This research includes performing trial runs of our software and website in order to refine their essential qualities, such as ease of access and software reliability. Refining these qualities will ensure that our final website and products are practical, affordable, and dependable.

 

We have not yet begun the process of soliciting an inventory of digital images from photographers. We have, however, analyzed the market and believe our unique twists in the stock image market will appeal to new, amateur and experienced photographers. We believe that the established stock image business has grown complex and intimidating to most photographers. Leading stock image vendors tend to boast about the vast number of images they hold online. We believe that such an inventory almost insures that individual works will get “lost” in the database. In contrast, we hope to develop a site to focus on the emerging middle class Chinese market. It will have the nuances and cultural cues that appeal to the modern photographer interested in the Chinese culture, whether they are amateurs or professionals. We intend to draw these photographers to our site, by engaging in the following:

 

 

We have not yet marketed our website to attract customers, but we intend to do so in the next twelve months. We intend to attract customers with value pricing and offering ease of use. We intend to draw in customers by engaging in the following:

Competition

 

We plan to compete with a number of established online stock image companies who sell stock images to visual content consumers in Asia and internationally. These companies enjoy brand recognition which exceeds that of our brand name and have significantly greater financial, distribution, advertising, and marketing resources than we do, including:

Table of Contents

We believe that our website will differ from many other stock image services in several respects:

 

 

We plan to compete primarily on the basis of quality, brand name recognition, and price. We believe that our success will depend upon our ability to be competitive in our product areas. The failure to compete successfully in the future could result in a material deterioration of customer loyalty and our image and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Once we determine the final format for our digital image transaction software and website, we intend to file for patent protection and/or copyright protection in China and other jurisdictions.

 

We intend to aggressively assert our rights under trade secret, unfair competition, trademark and copyright laws to protect our intellectual property, including software and website design, product research and concepts and recognized trademarks. These rights are protected through the acquisition of patents and trademark registrations, the maintenance of trade secrets, the development of trade dress, and, where appropriate, litigation against those who are, in our opinion, infringing these rights.

 

We are currently consulting with law firms to protect our brand name and software and website design. While there can be no assurance that registered trademarks will protect our proprietary information, we intend to assert our intellectual property rights against any infringer. Although any assertion of our rights can result in a substantial cost to, and diversion of effort by, our company, management believes that the protection of our intellectual property rights is a key component of our operating strategy.

 

Regulatory Matters

 

We are unaware of and do not anticipate having to expend significant resources to comply with any governmental regulations of the visual content industry. We are subject to the laws and regulations of those jurisdictions in which we plan to sell our products, which are generally applicable to business operations, such as business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes. In general, the development, manufacture, and sale of our products in Asia is not subject to special regulatory and/or supervisory requirements.

 

There are currently few laws or regulations directly applicable to commerce on the Internet. Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet, relating to issues such as user privacy, pricing, characteristics and quality of products and services. A number of countries have enacted, or may enact, laws that regulate Internet content.

Employees

 

Petra Jaeger, our President and Director, devotes 10 to 15 hours per week to our business affairs as our employee. We do not have an employment agreement with Petra Jaeger. Aside from Petra Jeager, we do not have any full or part-time employees. Our President oversees all responsibilities in the areas of corporate administration, business development, and research. We intend to expand our current management to retain skilled directors, officers, and employees with experience relevant to our business focus. Petra Jeager is highly skilled in technical areas such as researching and developing our product, but not skilled in areas such as marketing our product and business management. Obtaining the assistance of individuals with and in-depth knowledge of operations and markets will allow us to build market share more effectively.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”), which is sponsored by FINRA. The OTCBB is a network of security dealers who buy and sell stock. The dealers are connected by a computer network that provides information on current "bids" and "asks", as well as volume information. Our shares are quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol “EPHO.OB.”

 

The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid quotations for our common stock for each of the periods indicated as reported by the OTCBB.

Penny Stock

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

10
Table of Contents

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

As of April 30, 2011, we had 7,750,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by 30 shareholders of record.

 

Dividends

 

The Company has not declared, or paid, any cash dividends since inception and does not anticipate declaring or paying a cash dividend for the foreseeable future.

 

Nevada law prohibits our board from declaring or paying a dividend where, after giving effect to such a dividend, (i) we would not be able to pay our debts as they came due in the ordinary course of our business, or (ii) our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of distribution, to satisfy the rights of any creditors or preferred stockholders.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

 

We do not have any equity compensation plans.

 

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

 

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, and Period from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) until April 30, 2011

 

We generated no revenue for the period from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) until April 30, 2011.

 

Our operating expenses were $28,626 for the year ended April 30, 2011, compared with $23,429 for the year ended April 30, 2010, and $58,677 from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) to April 30, 2011. Our operating expenses for all periods was mostly attributable to professional fees associated with the initial development of our business, legal and accounting expenses in connection with this registration statement, and consulting fees.

 

We recorded a net loss of $30,193 for the year ended April, 20, 2011, compared with $23,429 for the year ended April 30, 2010. We recorded a net loss of $61,412 from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) to April 30, 2011.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of April 30, 2011, we had total current assets of $2, consisting of Cash. We had current liabilities as of April 30, 2011 of $53,622. Thus, we have a working capital deficit of $53,620 as of April 30, 2011.

 

Operating activities used $31,141 in cash for the period from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) until April 30, 2011. Our net loss of $61,412 offset by $30,271 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities was the sole basis of our negative operation cash flow. Financing activities during the period from September 20, 2007 (Date of Inception) until April 30, 2011 generated $31,143 in cash during the period, represented by $7,792 from the proceeds of sales of our common stock and advances from a shareholder of $23,351. The advances are non-interest bearing and have no specified terms of repayment.

 

We expect to spend approximately $20,000 to implement our business plan over the coming year. Our accounting, legal and administrative expenses for the next twelve months are anticipated to be $30,000.

 

As of April 30, 2011, we have insufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months and insufficient cash to achieve our business goals. The success of our business plan beyond the next 12 months is contingent upon us obtaining additional financing. We intend to fund operations through debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital, or other cash requirements. We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

Going Concern

 

We have negative working capital, have incurred losses since inception, and have not yet received revenues from sales of products or services. These factors create substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on generating cash from the sale of our common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling our equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund our capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance we will be successful in these efforts.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of April 30, 2011, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

ePhoto Image, Inc.

Beijing, China

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ePhoto Image, Inc. as of April 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended and the period from September 20, 2007 (date of inception) to April 30, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the 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. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ePhoto Image, Inc., as of April 30, 2011 and 2010 and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from September 20, 2007 (date of inception) to April 30, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that ePhoto Image, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses from operations, has limited working capital, and is in need of additional capital to grow its operations so that it can become profitable. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 7. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

APRIL 30, 2011

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Business

ePhoto Image, Inc. (“ePhoto”) is a development stage company and was incorporated in Nevada on September 20, 2007. The Company is creating a web portal selling photo images, both in the Western and Chinese markets. The main focus is on the Asia Theme. The Company plans to target Asian photographers to sign up and sell their prints on the ePhoto website as well.

 

Development Stage Company

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to development-stage companies. A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.

 

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.

 

Accounting Basis

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting).  The Company has adopted an April 30 fiscal year end.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

ePhoto considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At April 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company had $2 of cash.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and an amount due to a related party. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

 

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

 

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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

APRIL 30, 2011

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 April 30, 2011.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. As of April 30, 2011, the Company has not issued any stock-based payments to its employees.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

NOTE 2 – INCOME TAXES

 

For the period ended April 30, 2011, ePhoto Image, Inc. has incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $61,400 at April 30, 2011, and will expire beginning in the year 2029.

 

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:

 

   2011  2010
Federal income tax attributable to:          
Current Operations  $10,266   $10,608 
Less: valuation allowance   (10,266)   (10,608)
Net provision for Federal income taxes  $0   $0 

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:

 

   2011  2010
Deferred tax asset attributable to:          
 Net operating loss carryover  $23,526   $13,260 
 Valuation allowance   (23,526)   (13,260)
     Net deferred tax asset  $0   $0

NOTE 3 – ACCRUED EXPENSES

 

Accrued expenses consisted of amounts due to the company’s attorney, stock transfer agent and independent auditors as of April 30, 2011.

 

NOTE 4 – NOTE PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

 

During the year ended April 30, 2011 the company received advances from a shareholder of $7,450. The advances are non-interest bearing and have no specified terms of repayment. The total due to the shareholder was $23,351 as of April 30, 2011.

 

NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK

 

At inception, Ephoto issued 5,600,000 shares of stock to its founding shareholder for $5,600 cash.

 

During the year ended April 30, 2009, Ephoto issued 2,150,000 shares of stock for $2,192 cash.

 

There were no additional shares of common stock issued during the year ended April 30, 2011. At April 30, 2011, the Company had 7,750,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS

 

Ephoto neither owns nor leases any real or personal property, an officer has provided office services without charge. Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and accordingly are not reflected herein. The officers and directors are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.

 

NOTE 7 – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has negative working capital, has incurred losses since inception, and has not yet received revenues from sales of products or services. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of ePhoto Image, Inc. to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from the sale of its common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling its equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund its capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC 855-10, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to April 30, 2011 to August 16, 2011, the date these financial statements were issued, and have determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these financial statements.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our sole chief executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of April 30, 2011, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by our company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities Exchange Commission and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our company’s management, including our company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as identified below under the heading “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.” Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated. Our company intends to remediate the material weaknesses as set out below.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) for our company. Our company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance, not absolute 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 of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our company’s assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and that our company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) 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.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

14
Table of Contents

Our Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2011 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at April 30, 2011 due to the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both United States generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.

 

Our company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending February 28, 2012, subject to obtaining additional financing: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out above are largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely effected in a material manner.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our 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 simple error or mistake.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended April 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of our executive officer and Directors.

 

Petra Jaeger is our President, Chief Executive Officer, Principal Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting President and Director. Mr. Jaeger received a diploma from the University Pforzheim in 1990. Shortly thereafter, he founded HitPit Design and began his own line of jewelry under that name. He has been overseeing all aspects of management, production, and sales of HitPit Design since 1990.

 

Term of Office

 

Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.

 

Significant Employees

 

We do not currently have any significant employees aside from Petra Jaeger.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to our present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

 

Committees of the Board

 

Our company currently does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the board of directors.

16
Table of Contents

Our company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. The board of directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The board of directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.

 

A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our board of directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President and director, Ms. Petra Jaeger, at the address appearing on the first page of this annual report.

 

Code of Ethics

 

April 30, 2011, we had not adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.
