Risk Factors
Investing in our securities involves significant risks. You should carefully read the section entitled “Risk Factors” below for an explanation of these risks before investing in our securities.
About this Offering
This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus of up to 104,608,484108,358,470 shares of the Company’s common stock. The selling stockholders may sell their shares of common stock from time to time at prevailing market prices. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. As of March 4,May 18, 2015, 137,806,264 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued and outstanding.
You should carefully consider the following risk factors and all other information contained in this prospectus. Our business and our securities involve a high degree of risk. The following summarizes material risks relating to our business and our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, they would likely harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
Our business is at an early stage of growth and we may not be able to develop the customer base necessary for success.
Our business is still at an early stage of growth. We are still in the early stages of hiring and training our sales force and work force, and identifying and building customer relationships for the services that we expect to offer. We will have to carry out our business plan and generate significant revenues to achieve and sustain profitability in the future. Achieving and maintaining profitability is dependent upon certain factors which are outside of our control, including changes in business conditions, competition, and changes in applicable regulations. We may not be able to achieve our development goals in an efficient manner, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the future.
Our independent auditor has expressed doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our Company has incurred net losses since inception. Our operations and capital requirements have been funded by sales of our common stock and preferred stock and advances from our chief executive officer. At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $5,440,310,$4,684,516, and our total liabilities exceeded our total assets by $5,205,241.$4,501,574. Those factors create uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We may have difficulty meeting our future capital requirements. If additional capital is not available, we may have to curtail or cease operations.
We will require significant capital resources in order to profitably grow our business. We estimate that we will be able to conduct our planned operations for approximately one month using currently-available capital resources. We currently use funds in our operations at a rate of approximately $200,000 per month. We anticipate that we will need at least $5 million to fund our planned operations for the next twelve months.
We may seek to obtain such capital resources through strategic collaborations, public or private equity or debt financings or other financing sources. The capital we need may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. Additional equity financings could result in significant dilution to our stockholders. If sufficient capital is not available to us, we may be required to reduce our workforce, reduce the scope of our marketing efforts, and/or customer service, sell all or part of our assets or terminate operations.
If we are unable to adequately protect our proprietary technology from appropriation or imitation by competitors, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our business development will depend on unpatented proprietary know-how and trade secrets to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. We cannot assure you that any of our competitors will not independently develop equivalent or superior know-how, trade secrets or proprietary processes. If we are unable to maintain the proprietary nature of our technologies, our expected profit margins could be reduced as competitors imitating our technologies could compete aggressively against us in the pricing of certain services. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
In addition, several of our business markets and customers are expected to be located outside of the United States. The laws protecting intellectual property in some countries may not provide adequate protection to prevent our competitors from misappropriating our intellectual property.
If we are not able to respond adequately to technological advances in the pipeline services industry, our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
We compete in an industry that has seen the development of increasingly advanced technology to deliver state-of-the-art pipeline management service solutions to a variety of end-users. Our success may depend on our ability to respond to technological changes in the industry. If we are unable to respond to technological change, timely develop and introduce new products, or enhance existing products in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements or demands, we will not be able to serve our clients effectively. Moreover, the cost to modify our services, products or technologies in order to adapt to these changes could be substantial and we may not have the financial resources to fund these expenses. We cannot assure you that we will be able to replace outdated technologies, replace them as quickly as our competitors or develop and market new and better products and services in the future.
We compete with many other resource providers and our failure to compete effectively with these providers ,maymay adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.
Our business is characterized by competition for contracts within the government and private sectors in which service contracts are often awarded through competitive bidding processes. We compete with a large number of other service providers who offer the principal services that we offer. Many of our competitors have significantly greater marketing and sales resources than we do. In this competitive environment, we must provide technical proficiency, quality of service and experience to ensure future contract awards and revenue and profit growth.
Our ability to recruit, train and retain professional personnel of the highest quality is a competitive necessity. Our future inability to do so would adversely affect our competitiveness.
Services in our data acquisition and pipeline data management markets are performed by our staff of technical professionals, field services, and management personnel. A shortage of qualified technical professionals currently exists in the engineering and energy services industries in the United States and foreign markets. Our future growth requires the effective recruiting, training and retention of well-qualified personnel. Our inability to do so would adversely affect our business performance and limit our ability to perform new contracts.
Loss of key individuals could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our success depends, in part, on the efforts of certain key individuals, including the members of our senior management team. The loss of the services of any of our key employees could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business.
Changes and fluctuations in government spending priorities could materially affect our future revenue and growth prospects.
We expect that agencies of the U.S. federal government, and state and local governments and government agencies and government contractors, will be among our primary customers. These governments and agencies depend on funding or partial funding provided by the U.S. federal government. Consequently, any significant changes and fluctuations in the government’s spending priorities as a result of policy changes or economic downturns may directly affect our future revenue streams. Legislatures may appropriate funds for a given project on a year by year basis, even though the project may take more than one year to perform. As a result, at the beginning of a project, the related contract may only be partially funded, with additional funding committed only as appropriations are made in each subsequent year. These appropriations, and the timing of payment of appropriated amounts, may be influenced by, among other things, the state of the economy, competing political priorities, curtailments in the use of government contracting firms, rising raw material costs, delays associated with a lack of a sufficient number of government staff to oversee contracts, budget constraints, the timing and amount of tax receipts, and the overall level of government expenditures. Additionally, reduced spending by the U.S. government may create competitive pressure within our industry which could result in lower revenues and margins in the future.
Unpredictable economic cycles or uncertain demand for our pipeline data management capabilities and related services could cause our revenues to fluctuate or contribute to delays or the inability of customers to pay our fees.
Demand for our pipeline data management and other services are affected by the general level of economic activity in the markets in which we operate, both in theU.S. and internationally. Our customers, particularly our private sector customers, and the markets in which we compete to provide services, are likely to experience periods of economic decline from time to time. Adverse economic conditions may decrease our customers’ willingness to make capital expenditures or otherwise reduce their spending to purchase services, which could result in diminished revenues and margins for our business. In addition, adverse economic conditions could alter the overall mix of services that our customers seek to purchase, and increased competition during a period of economic decline could result in us accepting contractual terms that are less favorable to us than we might be able to negotiate under other circumstances. Changes in our mix of services or a less favorable contracting environment may cause our revenues and margins to decline. Moreover, our customers may experience difficult business climates from time to time and could delay or fail to pay our fees as a result.
If we are unable to accurately estimate and control our contract costs, then we may incur losses on our contracts, which could decrease our operating margins and significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
It is important for us to control our contract costs so that we can maintain positive operating margins. Under our fixed price contracts, we receive a fixed price regardless of what our actual costs will be. Consequently, we realize a profit on fixed price contracts only if we control our costs and prevent cost overruns on those contracts. Under our time-and-materials contracts, we are paid for labor and equipment at negotiated hourly billing rates and for other expenses. Profitability on our contracts is driven by our ability to estimate and manage costs. Under each type of contract, if we are unable to control costs, we may incur losses on our contracts, which could decrease our operating margins and significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
Due to the nature of the work we perform to complete pipeline data management contracts, we are subject to potential liability claims and contract disputes, and our inability to resolve such claims and disputes may result in profit reductions and reduced cash flows.
Our pipeline data management contracts often involve projects where design, construction, system failures or accidents could result in substantially large or punitive damages for which we could have liability. Our operations can involve professional judgments regarding the planning, design, development, construction, operations and management of facilities and public infrastructure projects. Although we are adopting a range of insurance, risk management safety and risk avoidance programs designed to reduce potential liabilities, there can be no assurance that such programs will protect us fully from all risks and liabilities.
We may also experience a delay or withholding of payments for services due to performance disputes. If we are unable to resolve these disputes and collect these payments, we would incur profit reductions and reduced cash flows.
If we miss a required performance standard, fail to timely complete, or otherwise fail to adequately perform on a project, then we may incur a loss on that project, which may reduce or eliminate our overall profitability.
We may commit to a client that we will complete a project by a scheduled date. We may also commit that a project, when completed, will achieve specified performance standards. If the project is not completed by the scheduled date or fails to meet the required performance standards, we may either incur significant additional costs or be held responsible for the costs incurred by the client to rectify damages due to late completion or failure to achieve the required performance standards. The uncertainty of the timing of a project can present difficulties in planning the amount of personnel needed for the project. If a project is delayed or canceled, we may bear the cost of an underutilized workforce that was dedicated to fulfilling that project. In addition, performance of a project can be affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including unavoidable delays from weather conditions, changes in the project scope of services requested by the client or labor or other disruptions. In some cases, should we fail to meet required performance standards, we may also be subject to agreed-upon financial damages. To the extent that these events occur, the total costs of the project could exceed our estimates or, in some cases, we could incur a loss on the project, which may reduce or eliminate our overall profitability.
We may be subject to procurement laws and regulations associated with government contracts. If we do not comply with these laws and regulations, we may be prohibited from completing our existing government contracts or suspended from government contracting and subcontracting for some period of time.
Our compliance with the laws and regulations relating to the procurement, administration and performance of our government contracts is dependent upon our ability to ensure that we properly design and execute compliant procedures. Our termination from any larger government contracts or suspension from future government contracts for any reason would result in material declines in our expected revenue. Because U.S. federal laws permit government agencies to terminate a contract for convenience, the U.S. federal government may terminate or decide not to renew our contracts with little or no prior notice.
We are subject to routine U.S. federal, state and local government audits related to our government contracts. If audit findings are unfavorable, we could experience a reduction in our profitability.
Our government contracts are subject to audit. These audits may result in the determination that certain costs claimed as reimbursable are not allowable or have not been properly allocated to government contracts according to federal government regulations. We are subject to audits for several years after payments for services have been received. Based on these audits, government entities may adjust or seek reimbursement for previously-paid amounts.
Our potential involvement in partnerships and joint ventures and our use of subcontractors may expose us to additional legal and market reputation damages.
Our methods of delivery may include the use of partnerships, subcontractors, joint ventures and other ventures. If our partners or subcontractors fail to satisfactorily perform their obligations as a result of financial or other difficulties, we may be unable to adequately perform or deliver our contracted services. Under these circumstances, we may be required to make additional investments and provide additional services to ensure the adequate performance and delivery of the contracted services.Additionally, we may be exposed to claims for damages that are a result of a partner’s or subcontractor’s performance. We could also suffer contract termination and damage to our reputation as a result of a partner’s or subcontractor’s performance.
We may be subject to litigation that will be costly to defend or pursue and uncertain in its outcome.
Our business may bring us into conflict with customers, vendors, investors, or others with whom we have contractual or other business relationships, or with our competitors or others whose interests differ from ours. If we are unable to resolve these conflicts on terms that are satisfactory to all parties, we may become involved in litigation brought by or against us. This litigation could be expensive and may require a significant amount of management’s time and attention, at the expense of other aspects of our business. The outcome of litigation is always uncertain, and in some cases could include judgments against us that require us to pay damages, enjoin us from certain activities, or otherwise affect our legal or contractual rights, which could have a significant adverse effect on our business.
We use the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for many of our projects. This method may result in volatility in stated revenues and profits.
Our revenues and profits for many of our contracts are recognized ratably as those contracts are performed. This rate is based primarily on the proportion of labor costs incurred to date to total labor costs projected to be incurred for the entire project. This method of accounting requires us to calculate revenues and profit to be recognized in each reporting period for each project based on our predictions of future outcomes, including our estimates of the total cost to complete the project, project schedule and completion date, the percentage of the project that is completed and the amounts of any probable unapproved change orders. Our failure to accurately estimate these often subjective factors could result in reduced profits or losses for certain contracts.
Some of our services may be subject to government regulation, which could lead to higher expenses and reduced profitability.
State laws vary on data collection. Some states require that data collectors must have a surveyor’s license. These regulations may impair our ability to operate in some jurisdictions, or may require us to obtain surveyor licenses, which will result in higher expenses and reduced profitability.
We have a limited accounting and administrative staff, and anticipate the need to hire additional staff. Our failure to do so could lead to internal control deficiencies.
Due to our financial condition, we have been limited in our ability to fully staff our accounting and administrative departments. We intend to expand our accounting and administrative staff. Our success will depend on the effective recruitment, training, and retention of qualified, competent accounting and administrative professionals. Failure to adequately supplement our accounting and administrative staff could lead to internal control deficiencies.
We have not filed all our required tax returns and therefore may be liable for taxes, penalties and interest which could impair our financial condition and results of operations.
Due to the Company’s financial condition, we have been unable to prepare and file our federal and state tax returns for the 2009 tax year through the current tax year. Although we do not owe income taxes, we may be liable for franchise taxes, penalties, and interest. We intend to comply fully with our current and prior federal and state tax reporting obligations in 2015. We have accrued a liability for the taxes, penalties, and interest for which we are liable, which we estimate to be approximately $35,000, and for the cost to prepare and file the returns, which we estimate to be approximately $50,000.
RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
Because our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” it may be more difficult for investors to sell shares of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected.
Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” under the definitions in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. Under the rules, for purposes relevant to us, stock is considered “penny stock” if: (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or even if quoted, has a price less than $5.00 per share; and (iv) is issued by a company with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million, if in business more than a continuous three years, or with average revenues at less than $6.0 million for the past three years. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers cannot recommend our stock but must trade it on an unsolicited basis.
Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-2 promulgated thereunder by the SEC require broker-dealers in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be “penny stocks.” Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to:
| (i) | obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; |
| (ii) | reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; |
| (iii) | provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and |
| (iv) | receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise. |
Because of the rules and restrictions applicable to a penny stock, there is less trading in penny stocks and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Also, many brokers choose not to participate in penny stock transactions. Accordingly, investors may not always be able to resell their shares of our common stock publicly at times and prices that they believe are appropriate.
FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutionalnon- institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
Trading of our common stock is limited which may negatively impact the price of our common stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares.
Trading of our common stock is currently conducted on the OTC Pink Marketplace. The liquidity of our common stock is limited by, among other things, the number of shares that can be bought and sold at a given price and the lack of coverage by security analysts and the media, and may also be adversely affected by delays in the timing of transactions. Currently, there are approximately 225 holders of record of our common stock. These factors may result in lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock. In addition, without a large float, our common stock is less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership and, as a result, the trading prices of our common stock may be more volatile. In the absence of an active public trading market, an investor may be unable to liquidate his investment in our common stock. Trading of a relatively small volume of our common stock may have a greater impact on the trading price of our stock than would be the case if our public float were larger. We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock will trade in the future.
An additional number of the Company’s Shares of common stock are likely to become freely tradable which could cause our stock price to decease.
As of March 4,May 18, 2015, we had 137,806,264 shares of common stock outstanding. Approximately 15,792,166 of such shares are currently unrestricted and freely tradable on the OTC Pink Marketplace where the Company’s common stock trades. In addition, 104,608,484108,358,470 shares of our common stock have been registered for sale pursuant to this prospectus upon the effectiveness of the related registration statement. Of our remaining outstanding shares, as of the date of this prospectus, some of such shares may become eligible for resale in the future under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
We cannot predict the effect, if any, that the ability to sell additional shares of our common stock to the public will have on the prevailing market price of our common stock from time to time. Nevertheless, if a significant number of shares of our common stock are sold in the public market, or if people believe that such sales may occur, the prevailing market price of our common stock could decline and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.
We may offer and sell additional shares of common stock in the future which may dilute the value of the common stock held by our stockholders.
In order to meet our capital requirements, we may elect to offer and sell additional shares of our common or preferred stock. There is the possibility that such sales may result in dilution in the value of the Company’s common stock.
We are contractually obligated to issue additional shares of common stock to certain investors, which may result in significant dilution in the value of our common stock and may adversely impact our results of operations.
We are contractually obligated to issue additional shares of our common stock to certain investors because we have not registered their shares of our common stock under the Securities Act. We will continue to accrue obligations to issue additional shares of common stock until the shares covered by this prospectus are registered under the Securities Act. We cannot guarantee that such registration will become effective. We estimate that we will need to issue approximately 6.3 million shares of common stock before our registration becomes effective. The issuance of such shares may result in significant dilution in the value of our common stock. We have recorded a liability on our books for the estimated value of the shares that we will be required to issue. An increase in the estimated value of the shares, or an increase in the estimated number of shares to be issued, will negatively impact our results of operations.
The directors and officers of the Company may have certain personal interests that may affect the Company.
A small group of directors, executive officers, principal stockholders and affiliated entities will beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 50% of the Company’s outstanding voting securities. As a result, if some or all of them acted together, they would have the ability to exert substantial influence over and/or control the election of the Board of Directors and the outcome of issues requiring approval by the Company’s stockholders. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company that may be favored by other stockholders. This could prevent transactions in which stockholders might otherwise recover a premium for their shares over current market prices.
Trading in our securities could be subject to extreme price fluctuations that could cause the value of your investment to decrease.
Our stock price has fluctuated significantly in the past and could continue to do so in the future. Our stock is thinly-traded, which means investors will have limited opportunities to sell their shares of common stock in the open market. Limited trading of our common stock also contributes to more volatile price fluctuations. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as:
Further, the stock market in general has recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Continued market fluctuations could result in extreme volatility in the price of our common stock, which could cause a decline in the value of our common stock. Given these fluctuations, an investment in our stock could lose value. A significant drop in our stock price could expose us to the risk of securities class action lawsuits. Defending against such lawsuits could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources, thereby causing an investment in our stock to lose additional value.
We have never paid dividends and do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the future, so any return on an investment in our common stock will depend on the market price of the stock.
We have not paid, and do not expect to pay, any cash dividends on our common stock, as any earnings generated from future operations will be used to finance our operations. As a result, investors will not realize any income from an investment in our common stock until and unless their shares are sold at a profit.
Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. In addition, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports. A failure to provide effective internal controls may present opportunities for fraud and erroneous reporting of financial reports and operating results. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies and weaknesses which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control structure, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Disclosing significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls, failing to remediate these deficiencies or weaknesses in a timely fashion or failing to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.
As a public company, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Despite recent reforms made possible by the JOBS Act, compliance with these rules and regulations will nonetheless increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we are no longer an "emerging growth company." The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly, and current reports with respect to our business and operating results. These laws, rules and regulations are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. As a result, our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards are likely to continue to result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.
As a result of disclosure of information in this prospectus and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition will become more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the resources of our management and adversely affect our business, brand and reputation and results of operations.
We also expect that being a public company and these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors and qualified executive officers.
Our shares of common stock will not be registered under the Exchange Act and as a result we will have limited reporting obligations, and those reporting obligations may be suspended automatically if we have fewer than 300 stockholders of record on the first day of our fiscal year, which could make our common stock less attractive to investors.
Our Common Stock is not registered under the Exchange Act, and we do not intend to register our common stock under the Exchange Act for the foreseeable future. As a result, although, upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will be required to file annual, quarterly, and current reports pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as long as our shares of common stock are not registered under the Exchange Act, we will not be subject to the federal proxy rules and our directors, executive officers and 10% beneficial holders will not be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition our reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act may be suspended automatically if we have fewer than 300 shareholders of record on the first day of our fiscal year. This suspension is automatic and does not require any filing with the SEC. In such an event, we may cease providing periodic reports and current or periodic information, including operational and financial information, may not be available with respect to our results of operations.
We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The statements set forth under the captions “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations,” and “Business,” and other statements included elsewhere in this prospectus and registration statement, which are not historical, constitute “Forward Looking Statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 175 promulgated thereunder, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 promulgated thereunder, including statements regarding the expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future. When used in this report, the terms “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and “intend” and words or phrases of similar import, as they relate to our business or our subsidiaries or our management, are intended to identify Forward-Looking Statements. These Forward-Looking Statements are only predictions and reflect our views as of the date they are made with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-Looking Statements are subject to many risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Because our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock”, the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to such Forward Looking Statements.
Our business involves various risks, including, but not limited to, our ability to implement our business strategies as planned in a timely manner or at all; our lack of operating history; our ability to protect our proprietary technologies; our ability to obtain financing sufficient to meet our capital needs; and our inability to use historical financial data to evaluate our financial performance. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 1.
Because the risk factors referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligations to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of future events or developments. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
All shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus are being registered for the account of the selling stockholders. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders.
We have never paid or declared any cash dividends. Future payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other criteria, upon our earnings, capital requirements, and financial condition as well as other relative factors. Management intends to retain any and all earnings to finance the development of our business, at least in the foreseeable future. Such a policy is likely to be maintained as long as necessary to provide working capital for our operations. The only restrictions that limit the ability to pay dividends on common equity are those restrictions imposed by law. Under Nevada corporate law, no dividends or other distributions may be made which would render the Company insolvent or reduce assets to less than the sum of its liabilities plus the amount needed to satisfy any outstanding liquidation preferences.
Our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange or any national market system. Trading of our common stock is currently conducted on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “GSPH”. The last reported sales price per share of the Company’s common stock as reported on the OTC Pink Marketplace on February 2,May 1 8 , 2015 was $0.25.$0.2 5 .
The following sets forth high and low bid price quotations for each calendar quarter during the last two fiscal years that trading occurred or quotations were available.

As of March 4,May 1 8 , 2015, there were approximately 225 holders of record of the Company’s common stock.
The Company’s common stock to be sold by the selling stockholders is common stock that is already issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing stockholders.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) together with our financial statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and related registration statement.
Some of the information contained in this MD&A or set forth elsewhere in this prospectus, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes Forward-Looking Statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS” above. In addition, you should read the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the Forward-Looking Statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Overview
We provide cloud-based geospatial solutions to accurately locate and digitally map underground pipelines and other infrastructure in three dimensions. Our professional staff offers the expertise, ability, and technologies required to design and execute solutions that are delivered in a cloud-based GIS (geographic information system) platform.
We believe that the market for aggregating and maintaining positional data for underground assets is maturing, and that business and governmental entities are beginning to understand the value of such data. We believe that this developing market presents us with an opportunity to deliver long-term value to our shareholders. In order to realize that value, our primary challenge is to raise working capital sufficient to operate our business, and investment capital to hire employees, acquire assets, and expand our business. Management is currently focused on raising capital, and planning to position our business to capitalize on the maturing market for positional data once such capital is in place, including identifying new technologies for aggregating positional data, developing our GeoUnderground software, and planning the strategies and processes for our upcoming marketing campaigns. We use financial and non-financial performance indicators to assess our business, including liquidity measures, revenues, gross margins, operating revenue, and backlog.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, we had current assets of $614,912,$226,814, and current liabilities of $6,055,222.$4,953,468.
Our Company has incurred net losses since inception. Our operations and capital requirements have been funded by sales of our common and preferred stock and advances from our chief executive officer. At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $5,440,310,$4,684,516, and total liabilities exceeded total assets by $5,205,241.$4,501,574. Those factors raise doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In 2012, we raised approximately $632,000 in cash through private sales of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Stock”), and converted approximately $215,000 in liabilities to Series B Stock. In 2013, we raised approximately $3,246,000 through private sales of our Series B Stock and common stock, and converted approximately $4,926,000 of liabilities to Series B Stock and common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we raised approximately $2,236,000$2,430,000 through private sales of our common stock, and approximately $272,000 through the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase Series B Stock and common stock. In addition, we have negotiated settlements or long-term extensions on approximately $1,776,000 of liabilities from 2012 through September 30, 2014. We entered into an agreement with Reduct NV, licensor of our former exclusive technology, on May 10, 2013 that eliminates all prior liabilities to Reduct in consideration for the issuance of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock, warrants to purchase 3,500,000 shares of our common stock, and purchases of $300,000 of equipment from Reduct. The agreement allows us to purchase their products on a non-exclusive basis without the minimum purchase requirements to maintain the exclusive license. On February 26, 2015, an outstanding Senior Secured Redeemable Note with a balance due of approximately $1.6 million was converted into shares of our common stock.
On January 16, 2015, we issued a Senior Secured Promissory Note to Horberg Enterprises LLC (the “Horberg Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000. The Horberg Note was due on April 8, 2015, and accrued no interest through the due date. The Horberg Note was secured by liens on all of our assets. We also issued Horberg Enterprises LLC warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of our common stock in consideration for its purchasing the Horberg Note. Proceeds from the issuance of the Horberg Note were used for working capital purposes. We repaid the Horberg Note on April 3, 2014.
On April 2, 2015, we issued a Secured Promissory Note to David M. Truitt (the “Truitt Note”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000. The Truitt Note is due on October 2, 2015, and bears interest at 10% per annum. The Truitt Note is secured by liens on all of our assets, and is convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder. We also issued David M. Truitt warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in consideration for his purchasing the Truitt Note. Proceeds from the issuance of the Truitt Note were used to repay the Horberg Note and for working capital purposes.
On September 17, 2014, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire substantially all the assets of Select Analytics LLC, a company that operates the Shale Navigator website, and is engaged in the business of aggregating, managing, and selling infrastructure data. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, we will be required to pay $160,000 in cash and issue 550,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the seller during 2015.
Management is continuing efforts to secure funding sufficient for the Company’s operating and capital requirements through private sales of common stock, and to negotiate settlements or extensions of existing liabilities. The proceeds of such sales of stock, if any, will be used to fund general working capital needs.
Beginning in 2012, we changed the focus of our company to position us to generate revenue from data acquisition and data management. We expanded our service offerings to provide data acquisition services utilizing twelve different technologies. We developed new, cloud-based mapping software to be marketed under our existing name GeoUndergound that replaces our previous version of GeoUnderground. We currently utilize GeoUnderground to deliver data to customers. We intend to offer GeoUnderground as a subscription-based stand-alone product beginning in the first quarter of 2015. In 2014, we entered into an agreement to acquire the Shale Navigator website, which we intend to incorporate into GeoUnderground. We expect to have the Shale Navigator website incorporated into GeoUnderground, and to realize revenue from Shale Navigator subscriptions and sales of data beginning in the first quarter of 2015. We believe that our changes to our operating focus will enable us to begin to generate significant revenue from operations.
We believe that our actions and planned actions will enable us to finance our operations beyond the next twelve months.
We do not believe that inflation and changing prices will have a material impact on our net sales and revenues, or on income from continuing operations.
Results of Operations for the NineThree Months Ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014 and 2013
Sales were $254,151 forDuring the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $494,738 forMarch 31, 2015, we had no sales, and had cost of sales of $37,593. For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2013. CostMarch 31, 2014, sales and cost of sales was $145,626 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $162,781 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013.were $112,721 and $49,614, respectively. Our sales have fluctuated throughout 20142015 and 20132014 as our ability to market and perform jobs was hampered by our financial condition. We expect sales and cost of sales to continue to fluctuate as our business continues to mature.
Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses include all costs that are not directly associated with our revenue-generating activities. SG&A expenses include payroll costs for sales, administrative, and technical personnel, sales and marketing costs, corporate costs, and facilities costs. SG&A expenses were $1,967,784$666,642 for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, compared to $1,194,556$603,541 for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2013.March 31, 2014. The increase in SG&A costs for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 compared to the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2013 was due to increased expenses resulting from the expansion ofpayroll costs related to our expanded technical staff in 2014.
Other income and expenses include interest expense, and non-business income and expenses. Other income and expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was a net income of $190,748, which included interest expense of $119,254, and gains on extinguishment of debt of $310,002. Other income and expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was a net income of $529,161, which included interest expense of $380,521, and gains on extinguishment of debt of $909,682. The decrease in interest expense in 2014 is due to a reduction in loan balances due to conversions of debt to equity. The gains on extinguishment of debt resulted from settlement agreements on prior liabilities. We had no net benefit from income taxes, as our deferred tax benefit was completely offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realization of the benefit.
Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
Sales were $556,088 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $336,672 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Cost of sales was $193,321 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $145,916 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our sales fluctuated throughout 2013 and 2012 as our ability to market and perform jobs was hampered by our financial condition. We expect sales and cost of sales to continue to fluctuate as our business continues to mature.
SG&A expenses were $2,134,111 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $1,256,128 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in SG&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 was due to the expansion of our technical staff in 2013.2015.
Other income and expense for the yearthree months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20132015 was a net expenseincome of $1,040,946,$710,489, which included interest expense of $422,802,$84,142, gains on extinguishment of debt of $909,682,$73,181, and expensegains related to registration payment arrangements of $1,527,826.$721,450. Other income and expense for the yearthree months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20122014 was a net expenseincome of $326,129,$31,390, which included interest expense of $335,900, a gain$39,788, and gains on extinguishment of debt of $1,733, and other income of $8,038.$71,168. The increase in interest expense in 20132015 was due to interest on a short-term loan.new loans in 2015, and interest on higher balances for existing loans. The gains on extinguishment of debt resulted from settlement agreements on prior liabilities.
ExpenseGains or expense related to registration payment arrangements resultsresult from a series of Stock Subscription Agreements we entered into in 2009 and 2010 (the “Stock Subscription Agreements”). We are required to register the shares of common stock sold pursuant to the Stock Subscription Agreements under the Securities Act. Our failure to register the shares of common stock under the Securities Act resulted in our obligation to issue additional shares (“Penalty Shares”) to investors who purchased shares pursuant to the Stock Subscription Agreements. We recorded a liability on our books for the value of the estimated number of shares to be issued. We incur losses on our registration payment arrangements when the estimated number of Penalty Shares to be issued increases, or when the value of our common stock increases. We record gains on our registration payment arrangements when the estimated number of Penalty Shares to be issued decreases, or when the value of our common stock decreases.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we had gains related to registration payment arrangements due to a decrease in the value of our common stock. We had no gains or expense related to registration payment arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2014. We expect that income or expense related to registration payment arrangements will fluctuate as the price of our common stock and the estimate of the number of Penalty Shares to be issued fluctuate.
We had no benefit from income taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014, as our deferred tax benefit was completely offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realization of the benefit.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013
Sales were $286,951 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $556,088 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Cost of sales was $193,250 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $193,321 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Our sales fluctuated throughout 2014 and 2013 as our ability to market and perform jobs was hampered by our financial condition. We expect sales and cost of sales to continue to fluctuate as our business continues to mature.
SG&A expenses were $3,080,446 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2,134,111 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in SG&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 was due to the increased marketing expenses and expansion of our technical staff in 2014.
Other income and expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 was a net income of $222,938, which included interest expense of $160,246 and gains on extinguishment of debt of $383,184. Other income and expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 was a net expense of $1,040,946, which included interest expense of $422,802, gains on extinguishment of debt of $909,682, and expense related to registration payment arrangements of $1,527,826. The decrease in interest expense in 2014 was due to interest on a short-term loan in 2013 which was repaid. The gains on extinguishment of debt resulted from settlement agreements on prior liabilities.
We had no income or expense related to registration payment arrangements in 2014. In 2013, we recorded expense related to registration payment arrangements of $1,527,826, which resulted from increases in the estimated value of our common stock due to an increase in our common stock price, and an increase in the estimated number of Penalty Shares to be grantedissued due to a change in our estimate of the timing of the registration of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act. This expense was partially offset by gains on registration payment arrangements resulting from decreases in in the estimated number of Penalty Shares to be issued due to the anticipated settlement of a lawsuit with certain stockholders. We entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Brooks Settlement Agreement”) with a group of stockholders who had sued the Company and its officers. We owed these stockholders Penalty Shares. Our obligation to issue Penalty Shares to these stockholders was terminated by the Brooks Settlement Agreement, resulting in a gain. We are still obligated to issue Penalty Shares to other shareholders.stockholders. We expect that income or expense related to registration payment arrangements will fluctuate as the price of our common stock and the estimate of the number of Penalty Shares to be grantedissued fluctuate.
We had no net benefit from income taxes in 2014 or 2013, as our deferred tax benefit was completely offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realization of the benefit.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2014.March 31, 2015.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions which, in our opinion, are significant to the underlying amounts included in the financial statements and for which it would be reasonably possible that future events or information could change those estimates include:
Registration Payment Arrangements. We are contractually obligated to issue shares of our common stock to certain investors for failure to register their shares of our common stock under the Securities Act. We have recorded a liability for the estimated number of shares to be issued at the fair value of the stock to be issued. We review on a quarterly basis our estimate of the number of shares to be issued and the fair value of the stock to be issued.
Realization of Deferred Income Tax Assets.We provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between financial reporting and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carryovers. At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, we had a deferred tax asset resulting principally from our net operating loss deduction carryforward available for tax purposes in future years. This deferred tax asset is completely offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realization. We evaluate the necessity of the valuation allowance quarterly.
Estimated Costs to Complete Fixed-Price Contracts.We record revenues for fixed-price contracts under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, whereby revenues are recognized ratably as those contracts are completed. This rate is based primarily on the proportion of contract costs incurred to date to total contract costs projected to be incurred for the entire project, or the proportion of measurable output completed to date to total output anticipated for the entire project. We review our estimates of costs to complete each contract quarterly, and make adjustments if necessary. At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, we do not believe that material changes to contract cost estimates at completion for any of our open contracts are reasonably likely to occur.
QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk—Interest rate risk refers to fluctuations in the value of a security resulting from changes in the general level of interest rates. We do not have significant short-term investments. Accordingly, we believe that we do not have a material interest rate exposure.
Foreign Currency Risk—Our functional currency is the United States dollar. We do not currently have any assets or liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.Consequently, we have no direct exposure to foreign currency risk.
Commodity Price Risk—Based on the nature of our business, we have no direct exposure to commodity price risk.
Company Overview
The Company was incorporated on December 26, 1995 in the state of Nevada as Kayenta Kreations, Inc. In connection with a merger in 2008, the Company changed its name to Geospatial Holdings, Inc., and in 2013, changed its name to Geospatial Corporation (“we” or the “Company”). Geospatial Mapping Systems, Inc. is the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary and operating unit.
General Description of the Business
We provide proven cloud-based geospatial solutions to accurately locate and digitally map in 3D underground pipelines and other infrastructure. Our professional staff offers the expertise, ability and technologies required to design and execute innovative, challenging solutions that push the Company to the forefront of the cloud-based infrastructure mapping industry. Geospatial Corporation is steadfastly committed to our mission – “To provide our clients with an unparalleled 3D understanding of the world’s underground infrastructure”.
We carefully listen to each client’s precise needs and provide unique and innovative technological solutions to locate, map and manage our clients’ critical infrastructure data. Our clear communication and time-tested technical expertise enable us to think outside the box as we provide underground infrastructure mapping solutions to benefit our clients and the community.
We provide two types of services to our clients. Data acquisition entails utilizing various technologies to accurately locate the exact position and depth of underground pipelines and conduits along with information on existing aboveground infrastructure. We provide data management services in which we securely manage this critical infrastructure data through the licensing of our cloud-based GeoUnderground GIS (Geographic Information System) software.
In October 2014, we entered the business of aggregating, managing, and selling infrastructure data. We entered into an agreement to acquire the Shale Navigator website (www.shalenavigator.com), and intend to incorporate Shale Navigator into GeoUnderground.
Product Development and Introduction
The GIS technology and mapping industry is characterized by rapid technological change in computer hardware, operating systems and software. In addition, consumers’ requirements and preferences rapidly evolve, as do their expectations of the performance of their software and the accuracy of the collected data managed by their software. To keep pace with these changes we maintain a vigorous program of new product development to address demands in the marketplace for our products. Just as the transition from mainframes to personal computers transformed the industry thirty years ago, we believe our industry is undergoing a similar transition from the personal computer to cloud, social and mobile information management and sharing.
We dedicate considerable technical and financial resources to research and development to further enhance our existing products and to create new software products and data acquisition technologies. Our software is primarily developed internally, however, we also use independent firms or contractors to perform some of our product development activities.
We spent $240,908$193,637 and $67,527$240,908 on research and development during the years ended December 31, 20132014 and 2012,2013, respectively.
Sales and Marketing Efforts
Along with GeoUnderground, we now provide a cloud-based infrastructure management solution to our clients, which include utilities, municipalities, government agencies, and other facilities. Over the past few years, due to financial constraints, the majority of our sales have resulted from word-of-mouth referrals. We have not had a formal marketing or sales program over the past four years.
We intend to establish Regional Technical Sales Managers (“RTSMs”) in various sales regions across the United States, Canada, the Middle East, and Australia.Each RTSM will be responsible for developing and implementing a sales program which meets our specific targets. As business is developed in each sales region, we expect field technicians to be assigned to work under each RTSM to assist the RTSM in performing pipeline mapping services.
We intend to engage in direct-sale marketing efforts, whereby we will require that each of our RTSMs establish relationships and schedule webinar meetings with GIS and utilities managers, engineering companies, major utility companies and major utility contractors within each of their respective sales regions in order to demonstrate our data acquisition technologies, GeoUnderground, and its associated benefits. We also intend to demonstrate the use and functionality of GeoUnderground at numerous national and regional trade shows sponsored by related industry groups. In addition, we will expect each RTSM to generate sales leads through social media and webinars.
Financing
From January 1, 2012 through September 30, 2014, we raised approximately $6,385,000$6,580,000 in cash through the private sale of our common stock and Series B Stock, and exercises of warrants to purchase common stock and Series B Stock. In addition, during that period, we converted approximately $5,191,000 of our liabilities to common stock and Series B Stock, and issued common stock for services totaling $223,000. In January, 2015, we incurred debt of $500,000 to fund our operations. In April, 2015, we incurred debt of $1,000,000 to repay the January, 2015 debt, and to fund operations. We intend to continue to sell our common stock in private transactions to fund our general working capital needs.
Intellectual Property and Licenses
We maintain a program to legally protect our investment in technology through a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protections, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions. The nature and extent of legal protection associated with each such intellectual property right depends on, among other things, the type of intellectual property right and the given jurisdiction in which such right arises. We believe our intellectual property rights are valuable and important to our business.
Nonetheless, our intellectual property rights may not be successfully asserted in the future or may be invalidated, circumvented or challenged. Enforcement of intellectual property rights against alleged infringers can sometimes lead to costly litigation and counterclaims. Our inability to protect our proprietary information could harm our business.
We retain ownership of all software we develop. All software is licensed to users. These licenses contain restrictions on duplication, disclosure and transfer.
We believe that because of the limitations of laws protecting our intellectual property and the rapid, ongoing technological changes in data collection and GIS software industries, we must rely principally upon data acquisition enhancements, GIS software engineering and marketing skills to maintain and enhance our competitive market position.
Customers
To date, we have successfully completed over 150 projects for a varied group of clients including contractors, municipalities, government agencies, utilities, telecoms, and engineering companies. We are not dependent on one or a few major customers.
Government Contracts
We expect that some of our contracts will be with federal and state government entities. These contracts may be subject to various procurement laws and regulations. If we do not comply with these laws and regulations, we may be prohibited from completing our existing government contracts or suspended from government contracting and subcontracting for some period of time. In addition, through our government contracts, we are subject to routine U.S. federal, state and local government audits. If audit findings are unfavorable, we could experience a reduction in our profitability. We are subject to audits for several years after payments for services have been received. Based on these audits, government entities may adjust or seek reimbursement for previously paid amounts.
Competition
The markets for our products and services are highly competitive and subject to rapid change. We strive to increase our competitive standing by investing in research and development, allowing us to enhance our software and data collection capabilities. We also compete by investing in marketing and sales to more effectively reach new and existing customers.
Our business is highly competitive with respect to pipeline asset management services. While we believe that our proprietary technologies provide advantages to our clients, we will compete with numerous public and private engineering firms that provide some or all of the services that we provide. Our competitors range from large national and international firms, such as Parsons Brinkerhoff Inc., CH2M Hill Companies, PBS&J, Tetra Tech, Dycom Industries, Inc., Consolidated Utility Services, Inc., URS Corporation and CDM, to a vast number of smaller, more localized firms.
The software industry has limited barriers to entry, and the availability of computing power with continually expanding performance at progressively lower prices contributes to the ease of market entry. The GIS industry is presently undergoing a platform shift from the personal computer to cloud and mobile computing. This shift lowers the barriers to entry and poses a disruptive challenge to established GIS software companies. In addition, some of our competitors in certain markets have greater financial, technical, sales and marketing and other resources than we do. Because of these and other factors, competitive conditions in our industry are likely to continue to intensify in the future. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced net revenue and profit margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.
We believe that the principal competitive factors (in the order of importance) in the areas of services we offer are: (i) quality of available technologies and software, (ii) quality of service, (iii) reputation, (iv) experience, (v) technical proficiency, (vi) local geographic presence, and (vii) cost of service. We believe that we are well positioned to compete effectively by emphasizing the quality and proprietary nature of our technologies and the quality of services that we offer. We are also dependent upon the availability of staff and our ability to recruit qualified management professionals and technicians. A shortage of qualified technical professionals currently exists in the engineering/GIS industry in the United States.
Seasonality
It is possible that our contract revenue and income from operations may be slightly lower for our first fiscal quarter than for the remaining quarters due to the effect of winter weather conditions, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions of the United States. Our GIS/data management activities should not be as directly impacted by seasonal weather conditions.
Personnel
We believe that our success will greatly depend on our ability to identify, attract and retain capable employees. As of March 4,May 8, 2015, we had eleven employees, all of whom are full-time employees. We believe that our relations with these employees are good. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or otherwise represented under a collective bargaining agreement.
Environmental Compliance
As our services are applicable to a large number of pipeline industry segments, we will be working, in many cases, in and around environmentally-sensitive areas, and with pipeline materials that may require specific environmental training and strict environmental procedures and guidelines. Failure to comply with these federal, state, or local environmental regulations could result in substantial penalties or fines. We have not incurred any material costs of environmental regulations during 2014, 2013 and 2012.
The enactment of various federal, state, and local environmental regulations, and variations in federal, state, and local funding for environmental compliance and enforcement of these regulations may have an effect on the capital expenditures of our clients, and thus may affect our ability to generate revenue.
Description of Property
Our headquarters office is located in Sarver, Pennsylvania. This building, which we lease from the Company’s Chairman/CEO, has approximately 3,200 square feet of office space and is used by our corporate and operations staff. This property is rented under a month-to-month lease at $6,500 per month.
We believe that the Company’s existing facilities are adequate to meet its business needs for the foreseeable future.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. We believe that any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or the results of operations of the Company.

DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Common Stock
We are authorized to issue up to 350,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.
Each outstanding share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on all matters. Our bylaws provide that, in voting for election of directors, the persons receiving the greatest number of votes shall be elected as the directors. Stockholders do not have preemptive rights to purchase shares in any future issuance of our common stock.
Dividends, if any, will be contingent upon the Company’s revenues and earnings, if any, and the capital requirements and financial condition of the Company. The payment of dividends, if any, will be within the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company presently intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in its business operations and accordingly, the Board of Directors does not anticipate declaring any dividends.
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of all our creditors and payment to the holders of Series B Stock of an amount equal to 150% of the original issue price of such shares of Series B Stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, ratably with the holders of Series B Stock on an as-convertedas- converted basis, our remaining net assets. All of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. To the extent that additional shares of our common or preferred stock are issued, the relative interests of existing stockholders will be diluted.
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value. Any voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions, relative rights and distinguishing designation of shares of the Company’s preferred stock are determined by the Board of Directors at issuance.
On August 20, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Withdrawal of Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to withdraw its previously filed Certificate of Designation establishing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company. As of the date of such filing, there were no shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding.
On August 20, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to designate 5,000,000 shares of its preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Stock”) for issuance by the Company. Each share of Series B Stock is convertible into ten shares of common stock at the option of the holder, or automatically upon the earliest to occur of: (i) immediately prior to the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, in which shares of common stock are approved for listing on a national securities market, covering the offer and sale of common stock for the account of the Company in which the aggregate public offering price (before deduction of underwriters’ discounts and commissions) equals or exceeds $30,000,000 and the public offering price per share of which equals or exceeds $2.10, before deduction of underwriters’ discounts and commissions; and
(ii) the Company’s receipt of the written consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Stock to the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series B Stock.
The holders of Series B Stock have the same voting rights and dividend participation rights as holders of common stock in proportion to the number of shares of common stock the holders of Series B Stock would hold if those shares were converted to common stock. The holders of Series B Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to 150% of the original issue price of such Series B Stock, after payment of which they participate in liquidation with the holders of common stock.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling security holder and of the participating broker-dealer(s)broker-dealer (s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.

The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interestsuccessors-in- interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of securities will be paid by the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers. Each selling security holder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such selling security holder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities, such selling stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
The Company has advised each selling stockholder that it may not use shares registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a selling stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders will be responsible for complying with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any additional proceeds from the sale of the common stock registered under this prospectus.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any limitations by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
INDEMNIFICATIONINDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our amended articles of incorporation provide that none of our directors and officers shall be personally liable to the Company or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by such person as a director or officer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director or officer shall be liable to the extent provided by applicable law, (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or (ii) for the payment of dividends in violation of applicable law. We indemnify our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law for the costs and liabilities of acting or failing to act in an official capacity. We also have insurance in the aggregate amount of $5 million for our directors and officers against all of the costs of such indemnification or against liabilities arising from acts or omissions of the insured person in cases where we may not have power to indemnify the person against such liabilities.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of ours in which indemnification would be required or permitted.We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, or otherwise, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Report of IndependentIndependent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Geospatial Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Geospatial Corporation (a Nevada corporation) as of December 31, 20132014 and 2012,2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’sentity's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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 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 Geospatial Corporation as of December 31, 20132014 and 2012,2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1l to the financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses since inception, operations and capital requirements since inception have been funded by sales of stock and advances from its chief executive officer and current liabilities exceed current assets by $4,890,766.$6,315,799. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
This summary of significant accounting policies of Geospatial Corporation, a Nevada corporation, formerly known as Geospatial Holdings, Inc., and subsidiaries (the “Company”), is presented to assist in the understanding of the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of the financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Nature of Operations
The Company utilizes innovative technologies to acquire and manage data related to underground assets. The Company’s services include pipeline data acquisition and professional data management. The Company also provided utility locating services through March, 2011. The Company is located in Sarver, Pennsylvania, and provides services throughout the United States.
Consolidation
The Company’s financial statements include wholly-owned subsidiaries Geospatial Mapping Systems, Inc. and Utility Services and Consulting Corporation (“USCC”). USCC ceased operations in March, 2011. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014 and 2013 and the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ deficit for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 are unaudited. The interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements; and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and 2013.2014. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014 and 2013 are unaudited. The results for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014,2015, or any other interim periods, or any future year or period.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Estimates and assumptions which, in the opinion of management, are significant to the underlying amounts included in the financial statements and for which it would be reasonably possible that future events or information could change those estimates include:
| Estimated useful lives of property and equipment; |
| Estimated costs to complete fixed-price contracts; |
| Realization of deferred income tax assets; |
| Estimated number and value of shares to be issued pursuant to registration payment |
| ● | Estimated liability for accounts payable aged beyond the statute of limitations. |
These estimates are discussed further throughout these Notes to Financial Statements.
Going Concern
Since its inception, the Company has incurred net losses. In addition, the Company’s operations and capital requirements have been funded since its inception by sales of its common and preferred stock and advances from its chief executive officer. At September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $5,440,310,$4,684,516, and total liabilities exceeded total assets by $5,205,241.$4,501,574. Those factors create an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management has implemented plans to secure financing sufficient for the Company’s operating and capital requirements, and to negotiate settlements or extensions of existing liabilities. There can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are presented in the balance sheet net of estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company records an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts in an amount approximating anticipated losses. Individual uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance when collection of the individual accounts appears doubtful. The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts at September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, and December 31, 20132014 and 2012.2013.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes, and accelerated methods for tax purposes, based on estimated useful lives ranging from three to ten years. Depreciation expense was $71,026$30,420 for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2014,March 31, 2015, and $21,657$101,447 and $3,760$21,657 for the years ended December 31, 20132014 and 2012,2013, respectively.
Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that materially extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
The Company leases equipment under leases with terms of three years. Each lease is analyzed using the criteria in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840,Leases, to determine whether the lease is a capital or operating lease. Capital leases are recorded at the inception of the lease as property and equipment, and a capital lease liability of the same amount, at the lesser of the fair value of the leased asset or the present value of the minimum lease payments. Assets recorded under capital lease agreements are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of assets recorded under capital leases is included with depreciation expense related to owned assets. At September 30,March 31, 2015, assets under capital leases and the related accumulated depreciation amounted to $16,870 and $8,103, respectively. At December 31, 2014, assets under capital leases and the related accumulated depreciation amounted to $16,870 and $6,326,$7,170, respectively. At December 31, 2013, assets under capital leases and the related accumulated depreciation amounted to $16,870 and $3,796, respectively. At

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenue when all of the following criteria are met:
| Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; |
| Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; |
| The price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and |
Substantially all of the Company’s services are rendered under the following types of contracts:
Fixed-price contracts are contracts in which the Company’s clients are billed at defined milestones for an agreed amount negotiated in advance for a specified scope of work. Revenues for fixed-price contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, whereby revenues are recognized ratably as those contracts are performed. This rate is based primarily on the proportion of contract costs incurred to date to total contract costs projected to be incurred for the entire project, or the proportion of measurable output completed to date to total output anticipated for the entire project.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Units of delivery contracts are contracts in which the Company’s clients are billed an agreed amount for each unit of service, as defined in the contract, that is delivered to the client. Revenues for units of delivery contracts are recognized as each unit of service is completed.
Time-and-materials contracts are contracts in which the Company and the client negotiate billing rates, typically hourly, and bill based on the actual time expended, plus other direct costs incurred in connection with the contract. Revenues for time-and-materials contracts are recognized as the services are rendered.
Advance customer payments are recorded as deferred revenue until such time as the related services are rendered or performed.
Revenues are recorded net of sales taxes collected.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740,Income Taxes,which requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carryovers.
The Company currently has a deferred tax asset resulting from differences in accounting methods for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. This deferred tax asset is completely offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realization.
The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions. The Company continues to remain subject to examination by U.S. federal authorities and various state authorities for the years 2009 through 2012.2014. Due to financial constraints, the Company has not filed its federal and state tax returns for 2009 through 2013.2014.
Gains on Extinguishment of Debt
Due to significant cash flow problems, the Company has negotiated concessions on the amounts of certain liabilities and extensions of payment terms. The Company accounts for such concessions in accordance with FASB ASC 470-60, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors, and recognizes gains the extent that the carrying value of the liability exceeds the fair value of the restructured payment plan. Such gains are included as “Gains on extinguishment of debt” in “Other income and expenses” on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, the Company has accounts payable that has aged or is expected to age beyond the statute of limitations. The Company is amortizing those liabilities over the remaining term of the statute of limitations. Such amortization amounted to $73,181 during the three months ended March 31, 2015, and $296,380 during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Stock-Based Payments
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718,Stock Compensation. The Company records compensation expense for employee stock options at the fair value of the stock options at the grant date, amortized over the vesting period. The Company records expense for stock options, warrants, and similar grants issued to non-employees at their fair value at the grant date, or the fair value of the consideration received, whichever is more readily available.

Registration Payment Arrangements
The Company is contractually obligated to issue shares of its common stock to certain investors for failure to register shares of its common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company has recorded a liability for the estimated number of shares to be issued at the fair value of the stock to be issued. The Company measures fair value by the price of its common stock at its most recent sale. The Company reviews its estimate of the number of shares to be issued and the fair value of the stock to be issued quarterly. The liability is included on the Consolidated Balance Sheet under the heading “accrued registration payment arrangement,” and amounted to $2,525,075$1,803,625 at September 30, 2014March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2013, and $1,066,977$2,525,075 at December 31, 2012.2014 and 2013. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the carrying amount of the liability are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in other income and expense under the heading “registration payment arrangements”, which amounted to a gain of $721,450 during the three months ended March 31, 2015, and a loss of $1,527,826 during the year ended December 31, 2013. There was no such gain or loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 or the year ended December 31, 2012.2014.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates as one segment. Accordingly, no segment reporting is presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In July, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Liabilities (Topic 405): Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The Company adopted ASU 2013-11 effective January 1, 2014. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), a new revenue recognition standard that supersedes the existing standard and eliminates all industry-specific standards. The largely principles-based standard provides a comprehensive framework that can be applied to all contracts with customers, regardless of industry-specific or transaction-specific fact patterns. The core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Entities should apply the five-step model outlined in the standard to achieve that core principal. The standard will be effective for usthe Company on January 1, 2017, and may be applied retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We areThe Company is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this new standard.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), an update regarding accounting for share-based payments for which the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. That is the case when an employee is eligible to retire or otherwise terminate employment before the end of the period in which a performance target could be achieved and still be eligible to vest in the award if and when the performance target is achieved. The updated standard clarifies that such awards should be treated as a performance condition that affects vesting. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the periods for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The standard will be effective for usthe Company on January 1, 2016, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We areThe Company is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this new standard.
In AugustInAugust 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15,Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), which provides authoritative guidance regarding management’s evaluation of conditions or events that raise substantial doubts about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, management’s plans to mitigate the effect of the conditions or events that raise such doubts, and disclosure requirements for entities in which there exists a substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for usthe Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is permitted. We areThe Company is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this new standard.

The Company has issued Delta the shares of common stock and the warrants to purchase common stock, and has completed its equipment purchase requirements.

This anti-dilution provision expires if Delta’s shares become registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Company raises at least $5.0 million in cash from the sale of its capital stock, including the Series B Stock financing. At December 31, 2014, the Company had raised in excess of $5.0 million from the sale of its capital stock.

Note 9 – Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock
Basic net loss per share are computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share reflects per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common stock had been converted to common stock. Dilutive potential common shares are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, which assumes that proceeds from the exercise of all warrants and options are used to repurchase common stock at market value. The number of shares remaining after the proceeds are exhausted represents the potentially dilutive effect of the securities.
The following reconciles amounts reported in the financial statements:

Note 10 – Stock-Based Payments (continued)
Using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, management has determined that the stock appreciation rights granted in 2014 and 2013 had no value. Accordingly, no compensation cost or other expense was recorded for the stock appreciation rights. The current value of a share of the Company’s common stock used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model was determined by an independent valuation. The value per share as determined by the valuation was $0.0096 and $0.0118 per share as of December 31, 2013.2014 and 2013, respectively.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The registrant undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or most recent post-effective amendment thereto) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initialbona fideoffering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
