Nature
of Business and Significant Accounting
Policies
|
(1) |
Organization
-
Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, or “us”) was organized
October 21, 1999, under the laws of the State of Delaware.
On April 25,
2005, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary,
Chanticleer Holdings,
Inc. On May 2, 2005, Tulvine Systems, Inc. merged with
and changed its
name to Chanticleer Holdings, Inc.
|
(2) |
General
-
The financial statements included in this report have
been prepared by the
Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and
Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include
all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that
are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair presentation. These
financial
statements have not been audited.
|
(3) |
Investment
Company
-
On June 1, 2005, the Company filed a notification on
Form N54a with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (the “SEC”) indicating its
election to be regulated as a business development
company (“BDC”) under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under this election,
the Company has adopted corporate resolutions to operate
as a closed-end
management investment company as a BDC. The Company
has been organized to
provide investors with an opportunity to participate,
with a modest amount
in venture capital, in investments that are generally
not available to the
public and that typically require substantially larger
financial
commitments. In addition, the Company provides professional
management and
administration that might otherwise be unavailable
to investors if they
were to engage directly in venture capital investing.
The Company will
operate as a non-diversified company as that term is
defined in Section
5(b)(2) of the 1940 Act and will at all times conduct
its business so as
to retain its status as a BDC. The Company may not
change the nature of
its business so as to cease to be, or withdraw its
election as, a BDC
without the approval of the holders of a majority of
its outstanding
voting stock as defined under the 1940
Act.
|
· |
Cash,
|
· |
Cash
equivalents,
|
· |
U.S.
Government securities, or
|
· |
High-quality
debt investments maturing in one year or less from
the date of
investment.
|
· |
Does
not have a class of securities registered on an exchange
or included in
the Federal Reserve Board’s over-the-counter margin
list;
|
· |
Is
actively controlled by a BDC and has an affiliate of
a BDC on its board of
directors; or
|
· |
Meets
such other criteria as may be established by the
SEC.
|
(4) |
Investments
in Affiliates and Non-Affiliates
-
Pursuant to the requirements of the 1940 Act, our Board
of Directors is
responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair
value of our
securities and assets for which market quotations are
not readily
available. In making its determination, the Board of
Directors will
consider valuation appraisals provided by an independent
valuation service
provider, when considered necessary. Equity securities
in public companies
that carry certain restrictions on resale are generally
valued at a
discount from the market value of the securities as
quoted on a national
securities exchange or by a national securities
association.

of one-times (1x) revenues or three-times (3x) earnings,
plus the greater
of the net assets of the investment or the total amount
of the actual
investment.
|
· |
Under
both scenarios, the value of the investment shall be
adjusted down if
there is a reasonable expectation that the Company
will not be able to

about the
investment’s ability to continue as a going concern.
