NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2015
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Astika Holdings, Inc. (the Company, we, us, our), Astika Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation, is refocusing and preparing to relaunch the Company through a variety of strategic acquisitions in the textile, service, and industrial sectors to complement and capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia and New Zealand. Astika is focused on adding value through successful project development, efficient operations, and opportunistic acquisitions while maintaining a low risk profile through project diversification, astute financial management and operating in secure jurisdictions. Rapid economic growth and increased foreign investment sector companies poised for accelerated growth with national modernization are the planned centerpieces for Astika Holdings in Asia.
On September 26, 2014 the company dissolved its subsidiary Astika Music Entertainment, Inc. The dissolution was in response to the change in the nature of business operations.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Companys financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit and recurring net losses and has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Managements plans focus is on a variety of strategic acquisitions in service, agriculture and industrial companies to compliment and grow Astika Holdings, Inc.s business. The Company is positioning to capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia. As the centerpieces for Astika Holdings in Asia, the focus is on rapid economic growth and increased foreign investment sector companies which management believes is poised for accelerated economic growth with national modernization. Astikas planned focus is also on adding value through successful project development, efficient operations, and opportunistic acquisitions while maintaining a low risk profile through project diversification, astute financial management and operating in secure jurisdictions. Managements plan to obtain such resources for the Company include (i) obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses; (ii) obtaining funding from outside sources through the sale of its debt and/or equity securities; and (iii) completing a merger with or acquisition of an existing operating company. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company. The Companys consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (US GAAP). The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its sole subsidiary. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company has no cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property
The Company does not own or rent property. The office space is provided by an officer at no charge to the Company.
Related Party Transactions
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 850-10-50 disclosure requirements for related party relationships and transactions.
Impairment on Long-Lived Assets and Other Acquired Intangible Assets
We evaluate the recoverability of property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts to the future non-discounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of property and equipment and intangible assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.
In addition to the recoverability assessment, we routinely review the remaining estimated useful lives of property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets. If we reduce the estimated useful life assumption for any asset, the remaining unamortized balance would be amortized or depreciated over the revised estimated useful life.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
17
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the periods.
Consolidation
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any.
On September 26, 2014 the company dissolved its subsidiary Astika Music Entertainment, Inc. The dissolution was in response to the change in the nature of business operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
We recognize compensation cost for stock-based awards to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718, over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche, as if multiple awards were granted. Compensation cost is based on grant-date fair value using quoted market prices for our common stock. We recognize compensation cost for stock-based awards to nonemployees in accordance with ASC Topic 505.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes as outlined in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) and all derivative instruments are reflected as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet.
The Company uses estimates of fair value to value its derivative instruments. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. In general, the Company's policy in estimating fair values is to first look at observable market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets, where available. When these are not available, other inputs are used to model fair value such as prices of similar instruments, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, default rates and credit spreads (including for the Company's liabilities), relying first on observable data from active markets.
18
Additional adjustments may be made for factors including liquidity, credit, bid/offer spreads, etc., depending on current market conditions. Transaction costs are not included in the determination of fair value. When possible, the Company seeks to validate the model's output to market transactions. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices, different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The values presented may not represent future fair values and may not be realizable. The Company categorizes its fair value estimates in accordance with ASC 820 based on the hierarchical framework associated with the three levels of price transparency utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value as discussed above. Changes in fair value are recognized in the period incurred as either gains or losses.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (ASC 820) and ASC 825, Financial Instruments (ASC 825), requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2015:

19
On December 3, 2015, the Company issued 549,107 common shares in the conversion of $7,611 ($7,000 principal and $611 interest) in debt to LG Capital Funding, LLC at $0.014 per share, as calculated per the loan agreement. (See Note 6 - Convertible Note Payable and Note 7 - Derivative Liability).
NOTE 5 - LOAN TRANSACTIONS
The Company purchased a recorded music compilation from Eugene Gant for a purchase price of $5,000 pursuant to a Bill of Sale and Assignment dated June 15, 2012, an Exclusive Songwriter Agreement dated June 15, 2012, and a Promissory Note that the Company concurrently executed and delivered to him on the same date. The Company made a payment to Mr. Gant in the amount of $1,000 on June 15, 2012 and $2,000 on October 1, 2012, and $1,000 on June 15, 2013, and there is one remaining principal installment payment in the amount of $1,000 due, which should mature by June 15, 2013, and currently are in default. This remaining $1,000 principal amount under Promissory Note bears interest at five percent (5%) per annum. Accrued and unpaid interest on the Promissory Note is also due in the amount of $63 as of December 31, 2015, and $60 as of December 31, 2014. As of December 31, 2015, total outstanding short-term debt is $1,285, and $1,222 as of December 31, 2014.
On October 22, 2015, Artfield Investment paid $2,100 in expenses on behalf of the Company. This loan is unsecured, due on demand, and carries no interest. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the total owing was $2,100 and $0, respectively.
NOTE 6 - CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE
During the audit of the Companys consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company identified an error in the accounting and presentation of the advances due to related party. The advances due to related party should have been shown as $0 and there should have been a convertible note payable in the amount of $31,500 presented.
This resulted in an adjustment to the previously reported amounts in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014. In accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin Nos. 99 and 108 (SAB 99 and SAB 108), the Company evaluated this error and, based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors, determined that the error was immaterial to the prior reporting period affected. However, if the adjustments to correct the cumulative effect of the above error had been recorded in the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company believes the impact would have been significant and would impact comparisons to prior periods. Therefore, as permitted by SAB 108, the Company corrected, in the current filing, previously reported results for of the Predecessor for the year ended December 31, 2014 (see Note 11).
During October 2014, the Company issued an 8.0% convertible debenture for $31,500 in cash. The cash was paid directly to an officer of the Company to cover expenses previously paid by the officer on behalf of the Company of $21,469 and as an advance to the officer for future expenses paid on behalf of the Company in 2015 of $10,031. The convertible debenture accrues interest at 8.0% per annum, is unsecured, due in one year from the date of issuance and is convertible into shares of the Companys common stock after 180 days at the option of the holder at a rate equal to 55% of the lowest trading price of the Companys common stock out of the last 20 trading trades including the date of conversion.
During December 2015, the holder of the convertible debenture elected to convert $7,000 in principal and $611 of accrued interest into 549,107 shares of the Companys common stock, or a conversion price of $0.014 per share.
20
As a result of the variable conversion rate, the conversion option embedded in this instrument is classified as a liability in accordance with ASC 815 as of the date the note became convertible in 2015 and the Company recognized a debt discount of $31,500 (see Note 7). During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized $31,500 of interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount.
Per the convertible agreement, upon an event of default, interest shall accrue at a default rate of 24% per annum or, if that rate is exorbitant or not permitted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law. As of December 31, 2015, the loan was in default.
NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
The Company analyzed the conversion option embedded in the convertible debenture for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815 and determined that the embedded instrument should be classified as a liability and recorded at fair value due to the variable conversion prices. The fair value of the conversion option was determined to be $52,267 as of the issuance date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Upon the date of issuance of the convertible debenture, $31,500 was recorded as debt discount and $20,767 was recorded as day one loss on derivative liability.
During December 2015, the holder of the convertible debenture elected to convert $7,000 in principal of the convertible debenture and $611 accrued interest into 549,107 shares of the Companys common stock. As a result, $7,072 of derivative liability was extinguished through a charge to paid-in capital and $20,043 was recorded as a gain on mark-to-market of the conversion option.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, $4,203 was recorded as a net gain on mark-to-market of the conversion options.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to the net loss before provision for income taxes for the following reasons:

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $(279,641) and (165,166) for the year ended December 31, 2014, and for federal income tax reporting purposes is subject to annual limitations. Should a change in our ownership occur the net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to their use in future years.
NOTE 11 - CORRECTION OF PRIOR YEAR INFORMATION
During the audit of the Companys consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company identified an error in the accounting and presentation of the advances due to related party in 2014. The advances due to related party should have been shown as $0 and there should have been a convertible note payable in the amount of $31,500 presented. The proceeds from the convertible note were paid directly to the Company CEO to reduce the due to related party payable for expenses paid by the related party on behalf of the Company. There was an overpayment of $10,031 to the CEO and as such is shown as due from related party as of December 31, 2014. The CEO paid expenses on behalf of the Company during the year 2015 for the overpayment of the proceeds from the convertible note, see notes 6 and 8.
This resulted in an adjustment to the previously reported amounts in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014. In accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin Nos. 99 and 108 (SAB 99 and SAB 108), the Company evaluated this error and, based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors, determined that the error was immaterial to the prior reporting period affected.
23
However, if the adjustments to correct the cumulative effect of the above error had been recorded in the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company believes the impact would have been significant and would impact comparisons to prior periods. Therefore, as permitted by SAB 108, the Company corrected, in the current filing, previously reported results for of the Predecessor for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The following tables present the impact of the correction in the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014:
