The story so far
The events that changed the company's story, in plain English, each written against everything known about the company at the time. The dot shows whether it was good, bad or neutral for shareholders.
2010
- 13 Dec
In an 8-K filed two months after the fact, Supatcha disclosed that Steve Talley had resigned as President/CEO on October 18, 2010, replaced by director Nikolae Yagodka; the board was reconstituted with Yagodka, Andrei B. Yasinskij and new director Dennis Lipton, an investment banker with mining/energy capital-raising experience - the second full leadership change in under a year.

Supatcha released an independent geological report on the Barlevskoye and Vynohradiv properties describing historical gold-silver-lead-zinc drill intercepts (up to 12.2 g/t gold), now referring to them as the company's own mines - though the underlying report itself is explicitly titled a preliminary 'Resource Statement' based on largely unverified Soviet-era data, not the compliant reserves report the 8-K's own cover text claims it to be.

Second-quarter fiscal-2011 report (period ended Aug. 31, 2010): net loss spiked to $255,959 for the quarter (from $12,112 a year earlier), driven by $114,762 of exploration costs and $76,159 of consulting fees tied to the Ukraine gold-license push - pushing the cumulative deficit to $387,389 even as the FY2010 10-K had already warned no financing for the deal was yet secured.

- 14 July
The delayed FY2010 10-K showed the Ukraine push straining the balance sheet: total assets fell further to $7,511 while liabilities more than tripled to $37,657 (mostly $26,850 owed to related parties), pushing the cumulative deficit to $105,722; shares outstanding had grown fivefold to 61,000,000 as the company described itself as 'committed' to the Ukraine properties contingent on financing it had not yet secured.
annual report
- 17 Feb
Supatcha signed a non-binding letter of intent to buy the Barlevskoye and Vynohradiv gold exploration licenses in southwest Ukraine from Poltavas Capital Management Ltd. for $7.5 million plus 500,000 shares, targeting an April 17, 2010 close subject to due diligence - the new board's first concrete move toward a mining pivot, though nothing was yet binding.
other material event
- 16 Feb
The restated version of the Nov. 30, 2009 quarterly report corrected the net loss for the quarter from the originally-reported $390 to $12,475 (nine months from $20,028 to $32,113), pushing the cumulative deficit to $97,392 and stockholders' equity into a $24,053 deficit - resolving the financial-restatement problem flagged two weeks earlier.
quarterly activities report
- 4 Feb
New CEO Steve Talley and auditor Webb & Company concluded Supatcha's interim financials for the period ended November 30, 2009 could no longer be relied upon, citing a 10-Q filed without auditor review, unrecorded accounts payable and officer in-kind services, and undisclosed officer loans - problems traced directly to the December 2009 change in management and a resulting gap in corporate recordkeeping.
financial restatement
- 15 Jan
Third-quarter fiscal-2010 report (period ended Nov. 30, 2009), filed one month after the new Talley/Yagodka/Yasinskij board took over: reported a suspiciously small $390 net loss for the quarter - figures that new CEO Steve Talley and the auditor would restate two weeks later, having found the original filing skipped an auditor review and omitted real accounts payable, officer in-kind services and officer loans.
quarterly activities report
2009
- 21 Dec
In a complete boardroom turnover effective December 9, 2009, founding CEO Donald Axent, secretary William Kosoris and CFO Brian Matson all resigned, replaced by new president Steve Talley alongside new directors Nikolae Yagodka (a mining geologist with 25 years' experience including Kazakhstan) and Andrei B. Yasinskij (a Russian investment executive) - the first sign of the shell being repositioned toward a new ownership group with mining ties.
director officer appointment
2008
- 24 Sept
The SEC's first review of the S-1 caught a real contradiction: the Bonanza claim's stated expiration date (Jan 14, 2008) didn't match the purchase agreement exhibit's own date (July 14, 2008) - and by the review date both had already passed, so staff asked Supatcha to explain how it still held any interest in its only asset.
