Results of Operations – Year ended September 30, 2017 compared to Year ended September 30, 2016.



Sales increased $61,329 from $8,385 in 2016 to $69,714 in 2017. The increase in sales was due to the introduction of our new vitamin supplement products in November 2016.



Cost of sales increased $9,785 from $1,246 in 2016 to $11,031 in 2017.



Gross profit increased $51,544 from $7,139 in 2016 to $58,683 in 2017 due to increased sales as a result of the introduction of the new products discussed above. The gross profit percentage of sales in 2016 and 2017 was approximately 85% and 84%, respectively.



Total operating expenses decreased $6,276 from $57,762 in 2016 to $51,486 in 2017. The decrease was primarily due to lower consulting and investor relation fees incurred in 2017 compared to 2016, offset by higher selling expenses in 2017 compared to 2016.



Other expense – net decreased $121,831 from $227,928 in 2016 to $106,097 in 2017. The decrease was due primarily to the $112,780 decrease in net loss on marketable securities and the $60,000 decrease in impairment expense of our investment in Emergent Health Corporation common stock, offset partially by the $30,000 impairment expense of the license agreement with Emergent Health Corporation in 2017 and the $21,750 decrease in interest and dividends revenues from $23,351 in 2016 to $1,601 in 2017.



Net loss decreased $179,651 from $278,551 in 2016 to $98,900 in 2017. The decrease was due to the $51,544 increase in gross profit, the $6,276 decrease in operating expenses and the $121,831 decrease in other expense-net.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Principles of consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CHOD and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.



Use of estimates – The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



Cash and cash equivalents ‐ The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.



Marketable securities ‐ Marketable securities consist of trading securities valued at market. All fair value measurements are based on Level 1 inputs (i.e., closing trading prices of respective marketable securities).

Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. 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 and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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.



Net income (loss) per common share – Basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive convertible preferred shares outstanding.



Recent accounting pronouncements – Certain accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and therefore have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

5. LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH EMERGENT HEALTH CORPORATION



On November 20, 2014, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement involving a change in control of CHOD, CHOD was assigned effective January 1, 2015 the License Agreement between Cappello’s, Inc, (Licensor) and EMGE (Licensee) dated August 26, 2014 (the “EMGE License Agreement”) in exchange for the issuance of 2,000,000 restricted shares of CHOD common stock. The EMGE License Agreement was valued at its estimated fair value of $30,000 based upon 2014 royalties.



The EMGE License Agreement provided for Licensee’s payment of quarterly royalty payments to Licensor equal to 5% of the first $1,000,000 of annual net sales of the Licensed Products, 4% of the next $1,000,000 of annual net sales, 3% of the next $1,000,000 of annual net sales, 2% of the next $2,000,000 of annual net sales, and 1% of all additional annual net sales. The term of the EMGE License Agreement was to expire upon the expiration of the last to expire of the Patent Rights. In the event the Base Sales of any one or more of the Licensed Products did not increase by 15% per year over each prior calendar year (“Underperforming Licensed Products”) and the Licensee did not pay royalties based on 15% annual increases in Base Sales for the Underperforming Licensed Product(s), Licensor could terminate the license for such Underperforming Licensed Product(s) or convert the license from an exclusive license to a non-exclusive license for such Underperforming Licensed Product(s). During the term, Licensor was to keep Licensee informed of the progress of the Patent Rights in the U.S. Patent Office and was to direct and control all aspects of the prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights using patent counsel of its choice; Licensee was to pay all reasonable costs and fees attributable to the Patent Rights including patent maintenance fees, government fees and attorney fees.



Based on the calendar year 2015 sales of the licensed products reported to CHOD by EMGE, the Company was entitled to royalties of $18,528. However, the Company collected royalties of only $572 from EMGE in 2015. Due to the uncertainty of future collections from EMGE, the Company has not recognized the remaining $17,956 royalties due at December 31, 2015.



EMGE did not report sales of the Licensed Products to CHOD in the first quarter 2016 and did not remit any royalties to CHOD. On April 28, 2016, CHOD notified EMGE that the EMGE License Agreement was terminated.



In November 2016, the Company collected $1,500 of current royalties from EMGE. At September 30, 2017, the Company recognized an impairment loss on the license agreement with Emergent Health Corporation of $30,000 and reduced the carrying value from $30,000 to $0.

CASTLE HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited)



Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of up to $521,903 attributable to the future utilization of $1,132,978 of prior year net operating loss carryforwards and $402,032 of capital loss carryforwards will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at September 30, 2017. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carryforwards expire as follows: $170,363 in year 2021, $694,345 in year 2022, $135,943 in year 2023, $66,021 in year 2024, $39,208 in year 2025, and $27,098 in year 2036. The capital loss carryforward of $402,032 expires $49,175 in year 2018, $1,855 in year 2021, and $351,002 in year 2022.



Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.



9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Since December 2005, the Company has been using space in Freeport New York provided by a public accounting firm owned by the Company’s former treasurer at no cost to the Company.



From September 2015 to August 2016, the Company also occupied office space in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania under a lease at a rent of $950 per month. Since September 2016, the Company has been using other space in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania provided by EMGE at no cost to the Company. Management of the Company is currently working with EMGE to revive its business model and become viable.



The Company is presently seeking to acquire EnerKon Solar International Inc. in a change of control transaction. Closing of this transaction is conditional upon, among other things, FINRA approval of a name change.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE



For the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, Castle Holding Corp. has had no principal accountant. Accordingly, there has been no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.



ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.



MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING



Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.



Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.



Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.



A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.



Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of

September 30, 2017, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the evaluation date.



CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING



There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
