PART I
THE COMPANY
Reliability Incorporated ("we", "our", "or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas in 1953, and from 1971 to 2007 the Company was principally engaged in the design, manufacture, market, and support of high performance equipment used to test and condition integrated circuits. This business was closed down in 2007. The Company has no further operating activities and is now a shell company.
The Company has concluded that it should look for acquisitions or identify a merger partner or other business combination. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing such a transaction or be able to maintain sufficient liquidity over a period of time that will allow it to carry out this action.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Copies of this Annual Report, including our financial statements, and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q as well as other corporate information, including press releases, of interest to our stockholders are available by writing us at 53 Forest Avenue - First Floor, Old Greenwich, Connecticut 06870.
Available sources of liquidity at December 31, 2015 include cash and cash equivalents of $11,924.
The Company's common stock is a "penny stock," as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that the broker-dealer, not otherwise exempt from such rules, must make a special written determination that the penny stock is suitable for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure rules have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. So long as the Company's common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, the level of trading activity could be limited and it may be difficult for investors to sell our common stock.
EMPLOYEES
The Company has no employees. It is managed by two directors/officers, with assistance from a contract bookkeeper.
The Company Has No Means to Generate Revenue
We have no source of revenue. Our cash balance has been diminished by general and administrative expenses. We do not expect to generate any revenues until, and we will only potentially generate revenues if, we enter into a new business. We believe that we may need additional financing to pay accounting and professional fees and other expenses to fulfill our reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") until we commence business operations. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in additional dilution to the stockholders. In addition, our failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our ability to pay the accounting and other fees required in order to continue to fulfill our reporting obligations and pursue our business plan. We do not have any arrangements with any bank or financial institution to secure additional financing and there can be no assurance that any such arrangement would be available at all or on terms acceptable to us.
The Market For Our Stock Is Not Liquid And The Stock Price Is Subject To Volatility
Our stock is quoted on the OTCQB of the OTC Marketplace under the symbol of "RLBY", where low trading volume and high volatility is often experienced. While a few firms make a market in our stock, the historically low trading volume and relatively few market makers of our stock make it more likely that a severe fluctuation in volume, either up or down, will significantly impact the stock price. There can be no assurance that these market makers will continue to quote our stock and a reduction in such market makers would negatively impact trading liquidity. Lastly, the uncertainty of the future of the Company may limit the liquidity of our stock. This and the existing limited market and volume in the trading of our stock, may result in our stockholders having difficulty selling our common stock. The trading price of our common stock has been, and will likely continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations due to the uncertainty of the future of the Company, general market fluctuations and other events and factors, some of which may be beyond our control.
Our management will have broad discretion in connection with the selection of a business combination.
Any person who invests in our securities will do so without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any potential business combination in which we may engage. As a result, investors will be entirely dependent on the broad discretion and judgment of management in connection with the selection of a business combination. There can be no assurance that determinations made by the acting management will permit us to achieve our business objectives.
Since we have not yet selected a particular industry or any target business with which to complete our business combination, stockholders will be unable to ascertain the merits or risks of the industry or business in which we may ultimately operate.
There is no basis for stockholders to evaluate the possible merits or risks of potential business combinations or the particular industry in which we may ultimately operate. To the extent that we effect a business combination with a financially unstable entity or an entity that is in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of revenues or income, we will become subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of such entity. In addition, to the extent that we effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high degree of risk, we will become subject to the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. A high level of risk frequently characterizes certain industries that experience rapid growth. Although management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular new prospective business or industry, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all such risks or that subsequent events may not alter the risks that we perceive at the time of the consummation of a business combination.
We currently do not have any agreements nor any minimum requirements for a business combination.
The Company has no current arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to engaging in a business combination with a specific entity. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in identifying and evaluating or in concluding a business combination. No particular industry or specific business within an industry has been selected for a target company. The Company has not established a specific length of operating history or a specified level of earnings, assets, net worth or other criteria that it will require a target company to have achieved, or without which the Company would not consider a business combination with such business entity. Accordingly, the Company may enter into a business combination with a business entity having no significant operating history, losses, limited or no potential for immediate earnings, limited assets, negative net worth or other negative characteristics. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to negotiate a business combination on terms favorable to the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that a business combination will benefit stockholders or prove to be more favorable to stockholders than any other investment that may be made by stockholders and investors.
We may have only limited ability to evaluate the management of the target business.
We may have only limited ability to evaluate the management of the target business. Although we intend to closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business in connection with evaluating the desirability of effecting a business combination, we cannot assure you that our assessment of management will prove to be correct. These individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating a public company and the securities laws, which could increase the time and resources we must expend to assist them in becoming familiar with the complex disclosure and financial reporting requirements imposed on U.S. public companies, including the requirement to maintain an effective system of internal controls. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues that may adversely affect the price of our stock.
Reporting requirements may delay or preclude the consummation of a business combination.
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 of the Exchange Act, the Company is required to provide certain information about significant acquisitions including audited financial statements of the acquired company. These audited financial statements must be furnished within 4 days following the effective date of a business combination. Obtaining audited financial statements are the economic responsibility of the target company. The additional time and costs that may be incurred by some potential target companies to prepare such financial statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable acquisition by the Company. Acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may not be appropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable.
Our principal stockholders have significant voting power and may vote their shares in a manner that is not in the best interest of other stockholders.
Our principal stockholders control over 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding shares of Common Stock and if these stockholders act together, they will be able to exert significant control over our management and affairs requiring stockholder approval, including approval of a business combination. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control and might adversely affect the market price of our common stock. This concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of all our stockholders.
Our officers and directors will allocate some portion of their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our affairs.
Our management is not required to commit its full time to our affairs. As a result, pursuing business combinations may require a greater period of time than if it would devote its full time to our affairs. Management is not precluded from serving as officers or directors of any other entity that is engaged in business activities similar to those of the Company. In the future, management may become associated or affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct. In such event, management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business combination should be presented. In cases where our management has multiple business affiliations, they may have similar legal obligations to present certain business opportunities to multiple entities. If several business opportunities or operating entities approach management with respect to a business combination, management will consider a number of factors, including preferences of the management of the operating company and availability of resources of the acquiring company. However, management will act in what it believes will be in the best interests of the stockholders of the Company and other respective public companies.
Because of significant competition for business combination opportunities, including numerous companies with a business plan similar to ours, it may be more difficult for us to complete a business combination.
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for our potential business combination, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including other blank check companies and operating businesses seeking acquisitions. Many of these entities may be well established and may have extensive experience in identifying prospective business combinations. Many of these competitors may possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than we do and there can be no assurance that we will have the ability to compete successfully. While we believe there are numerous potential target businesses with which we could enter into a business combination with, our ability to acquire larger target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources.
There may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our securities.
The holders of our shares of common stock and those persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop should be aware that there may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our securities. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for the Registrant's securities to be a limited one.
We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future because we have no revenues. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon our future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial condition. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors. It is our expectation that after the consummation of a business combination that future management will determine to retain any earnings for use in business operations and, accordingly, we do not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.
There may be a change in control and management of the Company in connection with a business combination.
In conjunction with completion of a business combination, it is anticipated that the Company will issue an amount of the Company's authorized but unissued common stock that represents a majority of the voting power and total capital stock of the Company, which will, in all likelihood, result in stockholders of a target company obtaining a controlling interest in the Company. As a condition of the business combination agreement, the current controlling stockholders of the Company may agree to sell or transfer all or a portion of the Company's common stock they own so as to provide the target company with all or majority control. The resulting change in control of the Company will likely result in removal of the present officer and directors of the Company and a corresponding reduction in or elimination of their participation in the future affairs of the Company.
Issuance of additional shares of common stock in connection with a business combination may result in dilution of our common stock.
A business combination normally will involve the issuance of a significant number of additional shares of common stock. Depending upon the value of the assets acquired in such business combination, the per share trading value of the Company's common stock may increase or decrease, perhaps significantly.
It is possible that our business combination may not meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties may not obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets.
Federal and state tax consequences will, in all likelihood, be major considerations in any business combination that the Company may undertake. Currently, such transactions may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, pursuant to various federal and state tax provisions. The Company intends to structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to both the Company and the target entity; however, there can be no assurance that such business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both federal and state taxes, which may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction.
If we locate a suitable target business outside of the United States, we would be subject to all the inherent risks of doing business in that foreign country.
Although we intend to focus our search on target businesses located within the United States, we are not limited to this geographical region. It is possible that prospective target businesses could be introduced to us in this and other areas. If we locate a suitable target business outside of the United States, we would be subject to all the inherent risks of doing business in that foreign country. For instance, many countries have had economic difficulties and political instability. If we were to complete a business combination with a target business located in another country, our operations and profitability could be negatively affected by that country's response to these and other issues. In addition, we cannot assure you that management of the target business will be familiar with United States securities laws. If new management is unfamiliar with our laws, it may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|
Management's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations is based on the Company's financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any exist. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values and disclosure of amounts recorded or disclosed in the financial statements of the Company.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our audited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty articulated in Item 1.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Management's Discussion and Analysis and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as current expectations and assumptions. From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements, including those that are contained in this report, relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company's actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the Company's business include, but are not limited to, its ability to maintain sufficient working capital, adverse changes in the economy, the ability to attract and maintain key personnel, its ability to identify or complete an acceptable merger or acquisition, and future results related to acquisition, merger or investment activities. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, including those set forth elsewhere in this report. The Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
We intend to seek new business opportunities. As we have only limited cash resources, our ability to complete any acquisition or investment opportunities we may identify will depend on our ability to raise additional financing, as to which there can be no assurance. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify, complete or integrate any future acquisition or investment, or that acquisitions or investments, if completed, will contribute favorably to our operations and future financial condition.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $25,811 compared to $62,715 during 2014. The usage of cash was attributable to the net loss, which in turn resulted from general and administrative expenses. The principal items contributing to the usage of $25,811 in 2015 were a loss of $30,175, offset with a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Financing activities provided cash flows of $100,000 in 2014 with no financing activities occurring in 2015. In 2014, the Company issued shares of its common stock generating cash proceeds of $50,000 and received a loan from stockholder in the amount of $50,000.
The Company is now a shell corporation. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities.
The Company continuously is evaluating the prospects for an acceptable merger or acquisition, but the likelihood and timing of such merger or acquisition cannot be estimated with any reasonable certainty. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing such a transaction or be able to maintain sufficient liquidity over a period of time that will allow it to carry out this action, in which case the Company might be forced to dissolve.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Revenues and Gross Profit
Revenues and gross profit for 2015 and 2014 were zero for both years, as all operations were discontinued as of September 30, 2007.
General and Administrative
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses primarily consist of legal, accounting and other professional services.
G&A expenses decreased from approximately $39,000 in 2014 to approximately $30,000 in 2015.
Other Income
The Company did not receive any other income in 2015.

Controls and Procedures.
|
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
The Principal Executive Officer/ Principal Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. Based on this evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, internal control over financial reporting was effective.
The financial statements of the Company for 2014 and 2015 have been audited by the independent registered public accounting firm of Ramirez Jimenez International CPAs who were given unrestricted access to all financial records and related data, including minutes of all meetings of stockholders and the Board of Directors. This annual report does not include an attestation report from the independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The management of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting remain unchanged. Previously, on April 25, 2014 Kyle Hartley was appointed Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer, pursuant to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 5, 2014 and assumed the responsibility of the management of the Company's internal controls and financial reporting. The aforementioned change nor any other event occurring in the current period covered by this report have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Item 11.
|
Executive Compensation.
|
The Company did not pay any salary to its officers or Directors in 2014 or 2015 and currently has no stock option plan or outstanding stock options.
Under the Company's Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan ("Option Plan"), which expired in 2006, stock option grants were available for officers, directors, and key employees. The objective of the Option Plan was to promote the interest of the Company by providing an ownership incentive to officers, directors, and key employees, to reward outstanding performance, and to encourage continued employment. The Board of Directors, which acted as the Plan Administrator, determined to whom options were granted, the type of options, the number of shares covered by such options and the option vesting schedule. All options were issued at market value on the date of the grant and generally had a ten-year contractual term with graded vesting.
Outstanding equity awards
There are no items required to be disclosed in accordance with Regulation S-K for the year 2015.
Director Compensation
None of the Company's directors received any cash compensation, stock option awards or other arrangements for services provided in their capacity as directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

Transactions with Related Persons
Previously on January 15, 2014, the Company issued 3,401,360 shares of common stock to Lone Star Value Investors, LP, an entity ultimately controlled by Mr. Eberwein, who was a director at the time of the transaction at $0.0147 per share for total proceeds of $50,000.
On June 6, 2014 Lone Star Value Investors, LP issued a Promissory Note to the Company in the principal amount of $50,000. Under the terms of the Note, interest on the outstanding principal amount accrues at a rate of 10% per annum, and all amounts outstanding under this Note are due and payable on or before June 30, 2019. The Company intends to use the proceeds for operating expenses. Lone Star Value Investors, LP is a significant shareholder of the Company's stock.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Marketplace, which does not have director independence requirements. Under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered independent if he or she has also been an executive officer or employee of the corporation during the current year or any of the past three years. As such, only Ms. Bible can be classified as independent under this definition.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Reliability Incorporated:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Reliability Incorporated (the Company) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Reliability Incorporated as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, 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.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has no operating activities. It is now a shell company and its future plans are uncertain. These factors 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2015 and 2014
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Reliability Incorporated (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas in 1953, but the principal business of the Company started in 1971, and was closed down in 2007. The Company has no further operating activities and is now a shell company.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has no operating activities and is now a shell company. The Company has concluded that it should look for acquisitions or identify a merger partner. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing such a transaction or be able to maintain sufficient liquidity over a period of time that will allow it to carry out this action. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing such a transaction or be able to maintain sufficient liquidity over a period of time that will allow it to carry out these actions, in which case the Company might be forced to liquidate or seek protection under the Federal bankruptcy statutes, or both.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid cash investments that mature in three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
STOCK OPTIONS
Compensation cost relating to stock-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, is recognized in financial statements based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued on the grant date. The Company recognized the fair value of stock-based compensation awards as compensation expense in its statement of operations on a straight line basis, over the vesting period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
December 31, 2015 and 2014
INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are provided under the asset and liability method and reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. The Company establishes valuation allowances when the realization of specific deferred tax assets is subject to uncertainty. The Company records no tax benefits on its operating losses, as the losses will have to be carried forward and realization of any benefit is uncertain.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Since the Company generated net losses in 2015 and 2014, outstanding stock options would have been anti-dilutive and were not considered in these calculations.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans from stockholder at December 31, 2015 and 2014 approximated fair value due to their short maturity or nature.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which provides guidance under U.S. GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The ASU is effective for all entities and for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.
At December 31, 2015, the Company had U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $15 million that will expire commencing in 2023 through 2034. These carryforwards may be subject to certain limitations on annual utilization in the event of a change in ownership, as defined by tax law. The Company has established valuation allowances to fully offset the deferred income tax assets related to these loss carryforwards, based upon the available evidence that indicates that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the tax benefits. The Company's income tax returns remain subject to examination for the years 2012 through 2015 for federal and state purposes.

The weighted-average remaining contractual term, as of December 31, 2015, was .5 years for outstanding and exercisable options. There were no options exercised and none that expired or were canceled during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were 370,000 options outstanding under the Option Plan which are exercisable at a weighted average price of $0.21 until July 19, 2016, when they expire.

Also on June 6, 2014 Lone Star Value Investors, LP issued a five year promissory note in the principal amount of $50,000, with interest accruing at a rate of 10% per annum, and all amounts outstanding under this note are due and payable on or before June 30, 2019.
