Overview

Arvana was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 16, 1977, as “Turinco, Inc.” to engage in any legal undertaking. On July 24, 2006, Arvana changed its name from Turinco, Inc. to Arvana Inc. on the acquisition of Arvana Networks, Inc., a telecommunications business. We discontinued efforts related to that business as of December 31, 2009. Arvana acquired Down 2 Fish Charters, LLC on February 3, 2023. Down2Fish was organized under the laws of the State of Florida on April 1, 2019.

Arvana acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of Down2Fish on February 3, 2023, from LCF Salons, LLC, (“LCF”) in exchange for fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) and a secured promissory note (“Note”) in the amount of seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) payable twenty-four (24) months after the closing date that bears interest of seven and one quarter percent (7¼%) per annum. Interest on the promissory note is payable on an annual basis. On January 29, 2024, Arvana and LCF agreed to extend the interest due date on the Note from the annual anniversary to April 3, 2024.

Stockholders approved a forward stock split of Arvana’s common shares on a 3-for-1 basis effected on April 19, 2023, to stockholders of record on March 31, 2023. All changes in Arvana’s capital structure have been given retroactive effect in this annual report.

While Arvana operates its fishing charter business it has continued to seek business opportunities in real estate development. On December 12, 2023, Arvana announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to acquire the business of FirstShot Centers, LLC (“FirstShot”), a Nevada based company intent on expanding its specialty use concept to acquire and repurpose vacant shopping malls, outlet locations and big bog stores throughout the United States to attract new tenants from targeted industries that offer goods or services that are not available online. The parties are yet to enter into a definitive agreement pending delivery of the FirstShot business and financing plan.

History

Down2Fish operates a Florida based fishing charter business that offers a range of curated maritime adventures that include inshore, offshore, and custom charters for fishing enthusiasts, nature lovers and tourists. The business is operated from a private dock in Palmetto, Florida that services the Tampa Bay area in addition to St Petersburg, Sarasota, Venice, Port Charlotte, and Clearwater. Down2Fish generates its revenue from the sale and provision of fishing charter services.

Arvana signed a non-binding term sheet intent on acquiring a multi-media platform on May 21, 2021. The term sheet required that the owner of the acquisition target secure voting control of Arvana as a pre-condition to facilitating a transaction. On October 26, 2021, Arvana signed a rescission agreement and mutual release with the owner of the intended acquisition that included a return of voting control, as the parties were unable to agree on the structure of the prospective transaction.

While Arvana is focused on building on the Down2Fish business model it will continue to seek, evaluate, and determine other business opportunities in the energy and real estate development sectors.

History

Arvana acquired Down2Fish on February 3, 2023, from LCF Salons, LLC, in exchange for fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) and a promissory note in the amount of seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) payable twenty-four (24) months after the closing date that bears interest of seven and one quarter percent (7¼ %) per annum in accordance with the Business Purchase Agreement dated November 16, 2022. Interest on the initial twelve (12) months of the promissory note term is payable on its 12-month anniversary.

Down2Fish operates a standard fishing charter business that offers inshore, offshore, and custom charters to fishing enthusiasts. Our business specializes in personal fishing adventures, special occasions, and corporate retreats. We generate revenue from the sale and provision of fishing charter services. We operate from a privately leased dock in Palmetto, Florida that primarily services the Tampa Bay area. Down2Fish is managed by experienced and qualified individuals well acquainted with the charter fishing industry who are focused on making it a leading charter company.

Services

Down2Fish offers the following service options for seaborne adventures:

In-shore fishing charters are an excellent way to experience deep-sea fishing off the Florida Gulf coast without spending the day motoring out to the open sea and back again. Customers get the full experience of baiting their line, casting, hooking, and landing a real live Gulf water fish, all within sight of shore. We offer in-shore charters as full or half-day adventures that includes exploring flats and bays up to three miles from the beach. May, June, and July are the best months for inshore fishing in the Tampa Bay area. Popular inshore fish species include mangrove snapper, snook, redfish, tarpon, and cobia. Fishing lessons are included on our charters along with help in cleaning the catch.

An offshore deep-sea fishing charter is designed to be an immersive experience. Charters are all-day trips that travel up to eighty miles offshore to open waters off the Florida Gulf coast, that are home to large fish, up to 50lbs or more including red grouper, scamp grouper, gag grouper, mahi mahi, American red snapper, red porgy, greater amberjack, blackfin tuna, various shark species, king mackerel, jack crevalle, and cobia. The skills required for deep-sea fishing can be more challenging than that required for in-shore fishing and the equipment more exhaustive to use. Fishing lessons for inexperienced deep-sea anglers are often a good part of the charter. We offer deep-sea fishing all year round subject to weather conditions.

Sight-seeing charters specialize in taking customers out on local waterways on guided tours of aquatic and terrestrial points of interest. This type of charter works well in tourist destinations such as Tampa.

Custom or special event charters are all-day tripsdesigned to commemorate special events such as weddings, corporate outings, or birthday parties that can combine in-shore and off-shore fishing charters. Customers can choose from a variety of activities and sight-seeing options tailored to specific requests.

We intend to offer dolphin watching charters as the means to grow the Down2Fish brand in the Greater Tampa area and are exploring the possibilities for offering whale watching charters. The Tampa Bay area is ideal for dolphin spotting as many dolphins live in shallow waters close to the coastline. Dolphin tours are extremely popular with families and groups. However, Down2Fish will need a larger vessel that can carry more clients to initiate dolphin watching charters. North Atlantic right whales can be sporadically spotted from November to April calving in waters off the Florida Gulf coast as their only known destination for calving. Whilecoast. Given that right whale spotting in Florida is a rarity, we are unaware of any fishing charter companies in Florida that offer whale watching tours so to offer this service could quickly help us distinguish the Down2Fish brand.

Industry

The fishing charter industry consists of businesses that engage in services such as inshore/coastal fishing, offshore fishing, and tournament fishing. Operators provide charter boat services for individuals, parties, and companies. Operators may vary greatly in size, ranging from large operators with a fleet of vessels to single boat owner-operators and part-time charter companies.The industry has seen faltering growth over the past five years. COVID-19 was the primary disruption that resulted in a significant decline in domestic tourism.

A researchThe IBISWorld report published by IBISWorld updated on January 19, 2021, showsdated to September 2023, explains that over a five-year period to 2018, the fishing charter industry inhas experienced a moderate decline over the United States experienced moderate growth. Industrylast five years. Overall revenue increasedwas estimated to drop at an annualized rate of 2.9%4.8% through that period to a sum$440.3 million. Despite the fall in revenue, the IBISWorld report added that the number of $371.1 million, including a 2.4 % rise in 2018 alone. The number ofcharter boat businesses grew by 0.08%,2.4% to 3,649, and the number of charter boat employees engaged in the industry grew by 1.5% in this period, which translated1.4% to 3,107 charter boat businesses and 5,143 employees respectively. The fishing charter industry recovered from a sharp decline that began with the 2008 recession and bottomed out in 2009. Falling per capita disposable income and poor national economic performance5,753 during the recession forced consumers and businessesprior five years to reduce recreational services such as fishing charters. However, by 2018,September 2023. While the fishing charter industry had recovered benefited from earlya recovering economy in 2021 post recessionary bumps due to a risepandemic, rising inflation in consumer sentiment and per capita disposable income.

Growth in2022, dampened growth through 2023. The reports notes that the fishing charter industry peakedcontinues to face stiff competition from other recreational activities such as hiking, running, and video games along with a negative shift in 2019 before stalling and reversing course again with the onsetconsumer confidence. Inflation has caused consumers to save more of the COVID-19 pandemic that continued to work against the industrytheir earnings in 2020. The National Bureau of Economic Research,response economic uncertainty which sentiment has had a non-profit research organization, determined that a peak in monthly general economic activity in the United States occurred in February of 2020. Since 2020, a return to growth inchilling effect on the demand for fishing charter fishing services has been further threatened by inflation, even as the economy recovers from the turbulence presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.boat services.

Inflation is measured byLooking ahead, the Consumer Price Index generated by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics which reported that consumer prices fell in December of 2022IBISWorld report for the first time in more than eighteen months though it remains today at historically elevated levels. Nonetheless, the decline is seen as an indication that inflation will continue to trend down in coming months. Even though inflation has had an impact on the industry. A report from the Statista Research Department on the fishing charter industry published on December 9, 2022, indicated a marginal decline in the size of the industry to $357 million and a decrease in the number of businesses and employees to 3,085 and 4,901 respectively.

Despite the decline, the fishing charter industry expects a return to growth. Thebusiness has forecast an increase in per capitarevenue at an annualized rate of 3.0% to $511.3 over the next five years as disposable income is likelyexpected to continueincrease in a tight labor market, which development will likely provide consumers with more discretionary income for recreational services tempered by the residual impact of COVID-19 and ongoing inflationary pressures.such as fishing charters.

Competition

While no single participant in the fishing charter business holds a dominant share of the available market, we do nonetheless face intense competition. Competitors range from industry operators that maintain fleets of vessels, to single vessel owner-operators and part-time charter companies. Existing and prospective competitors have or could have advantages over us such as those with greater name recognition, longer operating histories, deeper service offerings, larger customer bases, substantially greater financial or other resources. Many of our competitors offer fishing charters at a low-cost that may be difficult or impossible for us to match and are able to book fishing charters directly from their own e-commerce websites as compared to our reliance on third-party booking sites or services to accept payment, all of which are paid a fee for each engagement.

We are faced with a bevy of competitors in the Tampa Bay area that include:

While this list of competitors is in no way exhaustive it does provide a snapshot of competition in the area and some of the distinguishing characteristics used by these competitors to attract fishing charters.

Our competitive weaknesses are tied to our limited operating history and the size of our operation. Since we are relatively new to operating in the Tampa Bay area, our business struggles with brand recognition in a market rifefilled with options. We expect that the implementation of our business plan will increase brand recognition and customers for our fishing charters. However, efforts to expand brand recognition require that we overcome our biggest competitive weakness that being the limited financial resources at our disposal. Material growth will depend, in no small part on our ability to purchase an additional vessel to host dolphin sightseeing charters, and our willingness to spend additional sums on marketing our charters. We do not presently have the funds necessary to purchase a suitable dolphin sightseeing vessel, or to boost marketing efforts.

Despite the nature of the fishing charter industry and our competitive weaknesses, we believe that the services we offer today will continue to compete effectively due to several factors. We have a team with excellent experience in the fishing charter industry that provides the core strength of our workforce. Aside from the synergies that exist in our carefully selected workforce, our charters are guided by best practices in the industry. Our captain is at the top of the range for expertise in running fishing charters. Another of our strengths is our location in Palmetto, Florida with easy access to the Florida Gulf Coast, an area extremely popular for anglers and tourists alike. The state-of-art condition of our fishing boats and fishing equipment is an attraction for customers. Another of our strengths is our attention to fishing rules and regulations focused on preserving the environment. Our concern for the environment is not lost on customers who are increasingly focused on enjoying nature without causing harm in the process. We are also charter cost competitive with other fishing charter businesses in the area.

Market Analysis

The fishing charter industry competes with a wide variety of other recreational activities that include non-fishing sightseeing, land-based recreation such as hiking, city sightseeing, and even sporting events. A research report published by IBISWorld in 2018 reported that during the five years that preceded 2018,that year, the industry lost ground to other forms of recreation as consumer preferences changed. The COVID-19 pandemic had a further chilling effect on the industry as prospective customers were bound to remain in their homes. However, a post-COVID-19 IBISWorld report on the fishing charter industry generatedreleased in 2021September of 2023 forecasts that the industry is expected to realize annualized revenue growth through 2026,2028, on the basis that sustained economic growth will lead to an increase in consumer incomes which will enable more people to spend more money on recreational activities. Despite recessionary fears,the effects of inflation, there is reason to believe that the fishing charter businessindustry is about to enter a consistent growth pattern in the face of competing recreational activities.

Marketing Strategy

Our marketing strategies are directed towards achieving specific objectives that support our strategic goals to create new market channels, increase revenue and grow market share. We willexpect to leverage off premier fishing charter experiences to win new customers and retain existing ones. Down2Fish maintains modern well equipped fishing charter vessels, experienced crews, a convenient location from which to embark on charters, and reliance on highly reliable payment platforms for payment. Our intention is also to work with brand and publicity consultants to help us map out publicity and advertising strategies that will help us reach our target market.

We expect to continue to make use of the following marketing and sales strategies:

Our pricing is similar to the average price of what is charged for a fishing charter. While we do not charge more than our competitors, we do not charge less. Nonetheless, we do intend to offer discounts on our fishing charters for special events, and to reward loyal customers especially for referrals to our business.

Our facility to accept payments is all inclusive, as we are quite aware that different customers prefer different payment options such as:

Governmental Regulation

Our business is subject to extensive federal, state, and local regulations in Florida.

The captain of a saltwater fishing charter must comply with U.S. Coast Guard (“USGC”) regulations which include holding a USGC Captain’s License. Vessels used by a charter captain to do business must be commercially registered or have a USGC certificate of documentation with a commercial designation and follow USGC vessel safety requirements. Vessels carrying more than six passengers for hire must also have a Certificate of Inspection issued by the USGC. The USGC also exercises full authority over the safety and health of crews aboard vessels that have been inspected and certified. Any safety or health complaints received by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) concerning crew working conditions on an inspected vessel are referred to the USGC for determination of whether the events complained of constitute hazardous conditions. Fishing charters conducted in the Gulf of Mexico are also required to hold Gulf of Mexico Charter/Headboat for Reef Fish, and a Gulf of Mexico Charter/Headboat for Coastal Migratory Pelagics permits issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”). Enforcement falls on the NOAA Office of Law Enforcement.

Florida requires a Charter Captain or Boat Fishing License to carry paying customers for the purpose of taking, attempting to take or possessing saltwater fish or organisms. A Florida Charter Capitan license also covers customers on a charter who are not required to hold separate recreational saltwater fishing licenses and permit the licensed captain to go from boat to boat to do business. Florida also requires us to hold a Gulf Reef Fish Charter/Endorsement. State licenses are issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (“FWC”). Our business is also subject to FWC Florida Charter for Hire Regulations and Florida Recreational Fishing Regulations. We are further required to register as our boats as commercial vessels with the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Our business must also follow certain local restrictions as to seasons, volume, and fish species subject to catch.

We are also subject to city and county business license requirements.

Our failure to comply with the rules and regulations that govern fishing charter businesses could result in substantial penalties. Since such rules and regulations are frequently amended or interpreted differently by regulatory agencies, we are unable to accurately predict the future cost or impact on our business in complying with such laws or ultimately what cost or impact compliance or otherwise will have on us. Nevertheless, we do believe that our business is currently in regulatory compliance with those rules and regulations incumbent upon us.

Environment

We seek to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local statutory laws or regulations concerning the preservation of our environment. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (“MSA”) is the primary federal law governing marine fisheries management in federal waters up to two hundred nautical miles off the U.S. coasts. The MSA works through local councils to maintain its objectives. Our business falls under the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council, one of eight councils that are responsible for developing management plans to prevent overfishing, rebuild fish stocks and promote the long-term health of fishing. MSA councils look to the Scientific and Statistical Committee (“SSC”) for advice over a range management issues, such as what is an acceptable biological catch, maximum sustainability, and rebuilding targets. Based on data generated by the SSC, each council develops a fish management plan and submits recommended regulations to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce. The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management will also work with the FWC to ensure consistency in catch limitations. NOAA is one of the agencies responsible the enforcement of MSA directives.

Florida is fiercely protective of its fish stocks given the tremendous economic impact it has on the state. On the state level the FWC is responsible for saltwater regulations that extend up to nine nautical miles off the Florida Gulf Coast. Regulations published through the FWC go to bag limits, species, size, and season for each fish species that can be legally caught. The FWC also publishes a list of fish species that cannot be caught. Since restrictions are subject to change, current restrictions are published online on the FWC’s website, eRegulations.com, and through independent businesses that offer fishing charters. Local fishing areas may also maintain restrictions on fishing that apply to their communities.

Expenditures for compliance with federal state and local environmental laws have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on our business.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Limited Risk Management Strategy for Handling Sensitive Data

Arvana is committed to the integrity and security of the sensitive data that it collects, maintains, and transmits across its computer systems. Over the ordinary course of our business, Arvana and its third-party service providers, such as charter booking services, collect, maintain, and transmit sensitive data including proprietary or confidential business information (such as operational data and personal information). The secure maintenance of this information is critical to our business and reputation.

Despite our efforts to implement robust security measures, in reliance on administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, our risk management strategies, and practices for protecting sensitive data are subject to certain limitations. A variety of factors give rise to these limitations including the evolving nature of cyber threats, resource constraints, and the inherent risks associated with the technologies we and third-party service providers employ. Arvana relies on third parties, including cloud vendors and consultants, for various business functions. Many of our third-party service providers have access to our information systems and data, and we rely on such third parties for the operation of our business. We oversee third-party service providers by conducting vendor diligence. Vendors are generally assessed for risk based on the nature of their service, access to data and systems and supply chain risk.

Arvana’s current risk management strategy may not fully account for or mitigate the risks posed by emerging technologies or the potential impact of these limitations on our business. Financial liabilities, damage to our reputation, and erosion of customer trust could negatively affect our business operations and financial condition.

We have adopted a cybersecurity governance structure to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats that include a framework to respond to and assess internal and external threats to the security, confidentiality, and integrity of Arvana’s data and information systems. Under which framework management is responsible for assessing and managing material risks that arise from cybersecurity threats. We have not engaged third-party qualified contractors or claim any management expertise from which to draw in the event of cybersecurity threats.

Governance

When identified by management, cybersecurity threats are to be immediately reported to Arvana’s Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has primary responsibility for oversight of cybersecurity threats once a cybersecurity threat has been reported to it by management. Matters to be considered by the Audit Committee include management risks relating to data privacy, technology, and information security. The Audit Committee must also consider Arvana’s cyber security measures and the back-up of information systems, along with what steps Arvana has taken to monitor and control cybersecurity exposure. Further, the Audit Committee is tasked with the responsibility for conferring with management and Arvana’s auditors as to the adequacy and effectiveness of information safeguards, cybersecurity policies, and internal controls that impact information security. The Audit Committee will be briefed on any material cybersecurity incidents that might adversely affect our business at least once each year, such brief will include topics such as risk assessment, risk management, control decisions, service provider arrangements, security incidents, responses with recommendations for changes or updates to policies and procedures.

While Arvana has not experienced cybersecurity incidents in the past, it cannot guarantee that our cybersecurity safeguards will prevent breaches or breakdowns of our third-party service providers’ information technology systems, particularly in the face of continually evolving cybersecurity threats and increasingly sophisticated threat actors.

A cybersecurity incident could materially affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and reputation, in addition to potentially subjecting us to government investigations, litigation, fines or damages.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Arvana leases executive office is located at 299 Main Street, 13^th Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111. We pay an annual rent of $828 payable on a month-to-month basis.

Our business office is located at 901 25^th Avenue W, Palmetto, Florida 34221. We paid a nominal fee for the use of a boat dock and two boat slips to cover the term of the lease that expires on December 31, 2025.

We believe that these arrangements are appropriate at this time given our focus on operating efficiencies and do not believe that we will need to maintain a larger spaces in the foreseeable future.

Discussion and Analysis

Overview

Arvana closed the acquisition ofacquired Down2Fish on February 3, 2023, on those terms and conditions required by the Business Purchase Agreement dated November 16, 2022. Prior to the acquisition, Arvana’s sole business purpose was to enter into an acquisition of or merger with an existing company. The effect of the transaction was that Arvana acquired the business of Down2Fish and ceased to beas a shell company.

wholly owned subsidiary. Down2Fish operates a Florida based fishing charter business that offers a range of curated maritime adventures that include inshore, offshore, and custom charters for fishing enthusiasts, nature lovers and tourists. The business is operated from a private dock in Palmetto, Florida that services the Tampa Bay area in addition to St Petersburg, Sarasota, Venice, Port Charlotte, and Clearwater. Down2Fish generates its revenue from the sale and provision of fishing charter services.

Plan of Operation

Our plan of operation is to support the further development of our business, and to build on its existing business model. We believe that an expansion of marketing efforts around Tampa Bay, to offer a wider range of services, such as dolphin tours, will help establish the Down2Fish brand, attract more customers and increase revenues. Expansion into new service offerings will however require capital sufficient to finance the purchase of another vessel and additional boating equipment. We believe that dolphin tours can return net revenue on a consistent basis if we are able to attract sufficient customers to each excursion. We are currently licensed and equipped to carry no more than six (6) customers on each fishing charter. A vessel designed primarily for dolphin tours can carry from fifty (50) to one hundred (100) customers. Our primary impediment for equipment procurement and installation is cost. We are presently considering financing options that might become available to us in the near term but have no assurance that financing options will become available or that if such did become available, that the financing terms would be tenable for our business. Unless or until we can offer excursions that cater to a greater number of customers on each excursion, we will continue to focus on offering more fishing charter excursions to build revenue and improve our results of operations.

While Arvana operates its fishing charter business it has continued to seek business opportunities in real estate development. On December 12, 2023, Arvana announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to acquire the business of FirstShot Centers, LLC, a Nevada based company intent on expanding its specialty use concept to acquire and repurpose vacant shopping malls, outlet locations and big bog stores throughout the United States to attract new tenants from targeted industries that offer goods or services that are not available online. The parties are yet to enter into a definitive agreement pending delivery of its business and financing plan.

Results of Operations

During the yearsyear ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021,2023, Arvana extinguished debt,purchased Down2Fish as a wholly owned subsidiary, raised capital to sustain operations, evaluated other business opportunities, pursued certain businesses, and entered into an agreementoffered charter fishing services.

Charter fishing services were curtailed in the third quarter of 2023 and halted in the fourth quarter of 2023, due to purchase Down2Fish as a wholly owned subsidiary. The purchase closed post-year end 2022.necessary repairs to both of our vessels under their respective warranties.

The increase in revenue in the current twelve-month period is attributed to the purchase of Down2Fish in February of the current year. Revenue results for the current year were hampered by necessary repairs to both of our fishing charter vessels.

The increase in operating expenses over the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022,2023, is attributed to anthe addition of charter expenses, the increase in general and administrative expenses duethat included stock-based compensation, transfer agent costs and auditing expenses connected to costs associated with a change in our controlling stockholder, a private placement, and accounting costs attendant to ourthe purchase of Down2Fish, offset by a decrease in professional fees.Down2Fish.

We expect to continue to realize net losses from operations over the near termnext twelve months as management works to implement its business model.

Capital Expenditures

We expended no amounts on capital expenditures for the respective twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2022,2023, and December 31, 2021.2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities in the current period can be attributed to book expense items that do not affect the total amount relative to actual cash used, such as share based compensation.compensation, depreciation, and loss on asset purchase. Balance sheet accounts that affect cash but are not income statement related that are added or deducted to arrive at cash used in operating activities, include other income, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenues and expenses in the reporting period. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. We continually review the estimates and underlying assumptions to ensure they are appropriate for the circumstances. Accounting assumptions and estimates are inherently uncertain and actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

A summary of our critical accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022,2023, and 2021,2022, that are included in this Form 10-K.
