Item 1. Business
Present Business
On December 12, 2012 the Company name changed to Trucept, Inc.
The effective date of the name change was January 3, 2013.
Trucept, Inc. (the Company) has employment-related business
lines. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, we provide professional employer
organization (PEO) services. In a PEO co-employment contract, the Company
becomes the employer of record for client company employees for tax and
insurance purposes. The client company continues to direct the employees
day-to-day activities, and the Company charges a service fee for providing
services.
The Company operates three wholly owned subsidiaries, which are
used for bookkeeping purposes to track the employees and clients between
staffing and PEO operations. They are:
Smart-Tek Automated Services Inc. (STASI), Smart-Tek Services
Inc. (a subsidiary of STASI), and Smart-Tek Service Solutions Corp.
Corporate History
Trucept, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March
22, 1995 under the name Royce Biomedical Inc. In July 2005, we changed our
name from Royce Biomedical Inc. to Smart-tek Solutions Inc (Smart-tek),
and on December 20, 2012 our name changed to Trucept, Inc. Effective January 3,
2013, our symbol changed to TREP. Our stock is quoted on the OTC Markets. On

outstanding common stock.
The Company incorporated STASI on February 11, 2009.
From July 2005 through June 30, 2010, the Company, through
subsidiary Smart-tek Communication Inc. specialized in the design, sale,
installation and service of sophisticated security technology in the Greater
Vancouver Area. Customers for SCIs products and services included land
developers, general and electrical contractors, hospitals, corporations, law
enforcement agencies and retail facilities. On July 1, 2010, the Company
completed the disposition of the Companys wholly owned subsidiary Smart-tek
Communications Inc.
On June 17, 2009, the board of Trucept determined to add a new
line of business providing integrated and cost-effective management solutions in
the area of human resources. The Companys new business line officially started
June 17, 2009.

Products and Services
Business sold: On July 1, 2010, the Company completed the
disposition of the Companys wholly owned subsidiary Smart-tek Communications
Inc. to its president and founder Perry Law.

benefits and payroll administration, health, personnel records management, and
full time and temporary staffing services. The services feature advising in

payroll taxes, state and federal unemployment insurance, and claims management,.
As part of our staffing services, the Company can also provide recruitment,

criminal background investigations.
Our services allow our customers to outsource many human
resource tasks, including payroll processing, workers' compensation insurance,
health insurance, employee benefits, 401k investment services, personal
financial management, and income tax consultation. These services also relieve
existing and potential customers of the burdens associated with personnel
management and control.

full-service healthcare staffing organization. We provide medical staff in a
wide spectrum of clinical disciplines and assignment lengths. Our first priority
is providing qualified, trained, and experienced staff. We maintain rigorous
testing and performance standards to meet The Joint Commission, federal, state,
and local guidelines. We measure our administrative performance through an
analysis to national benchmarks and survey data.
Competition
The human resources services business is highly competitive, with over 800 firms operating in the U.S. There are several staffing services firms that operate on a nationwide basis, such as Manpower, Inc and Kelly Services, Inc. We also compete with
local and regional staffing firms for customers and employees. The competitive factors that dominate the industry include price and quality placements of employees in a timely manner. We price our services competitively, provide premier customer

|
We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due
in the usual course of business; or
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total
liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of
shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the
distribution.
|
We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to
declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Overview
Through our various wholly owned subsidiaries, we provide
integrated and cost-effective management solutions in the area of human
resources services to small and medium-size businesses, relieving our clients
from many of the day-to-day tasks that negatively impact their core business
operations, such as payroll processing, human resources support, workers'
compensation insurance, safety programs, employee benefits, and other
administrative and aftermarket services predominantly related to staffing -
staff leasing, temporary staffing and co-employment.
Plan of Operation
Short Term
Continue to concentrate on signing up new brokers who have a
large book of business that we can service. Grow the staffing business line.
Long Term
Our current strategy is to expand our service business,
including staff - and nurse staffing leasing, PEO services, and value added
products and services to small and medium-size businesses.
Our business continues to experience some liquidity problems.
Accordingly, year-to-year comparisons may be of limited usefulness as our
business continues to seek growth.
Our current strategy is to expand our service business,
including staff leasing, PEO services, and value added products and services to
small and medium-size businesses.
PEO Market Overview
The burdens placed on small and medium-sized employers by the
complex legal and regulatory issues related to human resources management caused
our industry segment to grow beginning in the 1980s. While various service
providers have been available to assist these businesses with specific tasks,
companies like ours emerged as providers of a more comprehensive range of
services relating to the employer/employee relationship. We assume broad aspects
of the employer/employee relationship for our clients. Because we provide
employee-related services to a large number of employees, we provide economies
of scale that provide our clients employment-related functions more efficiently,
provide a greater variety of employee benefits, and devote more attention to
human resources management.
We believe that the demand for our services is driven by (1)
the trend by small and medium-sized businesses toward outsourcing management
tasks outside of core competencies; (2) the difficulty of providing competitive
health care and related benefits to attract and retain employees; (3) the
increasing costs of health and workers' compensation insurance coverage and
workplace safety programs; and (4) complex regulation of labor and employment
issues and the related costs of compliance.

2012 amounted to $6,426,206, which mainly consisted of 1) depreciation and
amortization of $22,314, 2) increase in account receivable of $249,982, 3)
proceeds form related party of $1,323,057, 4) accrued workers compensation of

the net loss of $(7,853,021), prepaid worker compensation expense of
$(1,193,588) and payable to related parties of $(336,352).
Cash Used In Investing Activities
Cash flow used by investing activities was $Nil for the year
ended December 31, 2012 and $7,280 for the year ended December 31, 2011 which
consisted of the purchase of equipment of $(27,720) offset by cash paid for the
purchase of Solvis assets of $35,000.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Cash flow provided by financing activities was $6,839,771 and $10,440,980 and was primarily provided by increases in payroll taxes payable.
Going Concern
The Company incurred losses totalling of approximately $7.8
million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and incurred losses totalling
approximately $8.1 million through December 31, 2011. Because of these
conditions, the Company will require additional working capital to continue
operations and develop its business. The Company intends to raise additional
working capital either through private placements, public offerings and/or bank
financing, and continues to strive to increase its revenues each year.
There are no assurances that the Company will be able to
achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from
operations or obtain additional financing through private placements, public
offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support the Companys working
capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any private
placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient the Company
will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that
additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms
acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the
Company may not continue its operations or execute its business plan.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys
ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going
concern.
Future Financings
The Company does not have any significant available credit,
bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to historical
operating losses and other issues as described in the Companys going concern
footnote included in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the
period ended December 31, 2012, the Companys operations have not been a source
of liquidity and the Company had satisfied its cash requirements through
shareholder loans and deferral of its Form 941 taxes. In order to obtain
necessary capital, the Company may need to sell additional shares of its common
stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There is no assurance that the
Company will be able to secure additional financing or that it can be secured at
rates acceptable to the Company. In addition, should the Company be required to
either issue stock for services or to secure equity funding, due to the lack of
liquidity in the market for the Companys stock such financing would result in
significant dilution to its existing shareholders.
The Companys short-term plan is to utilize its common stock
where possible to pay for services and to seek further shareholder loans. In the
longer term, the Company is actively seeking additional merger, acquisition or
venture relationships with operating enterprises in order to generate long-term
growth opportunities for the Company, permit the Company to meet its financial
obligations and to provide increased value to the Companys shareholders. In the
past we have obtained our required cash resources principally through loans from
shareholders and our sole executive officer. While the operations of our
wholly-owned subsidiary are profitable, we still do not operate profitably as a
consolidated entity.
Managements plans to improve our financial condition are as
follows:
-
Continued growth in staffing business line;
-
We will continue to look for opportunities to grow organically where
feasible as well as evaluate potential acquisition opportunities that may
present themselves in the next 12 months.
There can be no assurance that our planned activities will be
successful or that we will ultimately attain profitability. We intend to use our
common stock as payment for services of various consultants in order to help
advance our business plan.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition,
changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations,
liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to
stockholders.
Subsequent events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from December 31,
2012, as follows:
|
1.
|
Effective January 2, 2013, Norman Tipton has been added
to its Board of Directors. Tipton has an extensive background in staffing,
human resources and as well insights into the PEO and staffing businesses,
having worked in the industry for nearly a decade. Tipton, a member of the
California Bar, is a graduate of Thomas Jefferson School of Law and holds
a masters in Sociology with emphasis in industrial organization from San
Diego State University. He has previously held a management position at
SAIC, a Fortune 500 company.
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Effective January 2, 2013, Kelly Mowrey resigned as COO.
She remains with the Company as Executive Vice President of the Staffing
Division.
|
|
|
|
|
3.
|
Effective March 4, 2013, the Company has entered the
defense consulting and staffing market. With many challenges facing the US
defense market, domestic manufacturers need international sales for
growth. This is an area fraught with difficulties, from dealing with the
complexity of the US State Department regulations and the consequences of getting it wrong
to dealing with different procedures and cultures of foreign manufacturers
and governments.

4.
|
In February 2013 Trucept issued 1,050,000 restricted
shares of common stock valued at an aggregate of
$5,250.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires our management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of
matters that are inherently uncertain.
We have identified certain accounting policies, described
below, that are most important to the portrayal of our current financial
condition and results of operations.
Revenue Recognition PEO business
The Company recognizes professional employment organizations
(PEO) revenues when each periodic payroll is delivered. The Companys net PEO
revenues and cost of PEO revenues do not include the payroll cost of its
worksite employees. Instead, PEO revenues and cost of PEO revenues are comprised
of all other costs related to its worksite employees, such as payroll taxes,
employee benefit plan premiums and workers compensation insurance.
PEO revenues also include professional service fees, which are
primarily computed as a percentage of client payroll or on a per check basis.
Revenues related to the Solvis staffing business are recognized when the
services are invoiced to the client.
In determining the pricing of the markup component of its
billings, the Company takes into consideration its estimates of the costs
directly associated with its worksite employees, including payroll taxes,
benefits and workers compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit
margin. As a result, the Companys operating results are significantly impacted
by the Companys ability to accurately estimate, control and manage its direct
costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of the
Companys gross billings.
Insurance Reserves
The Company maintains reserves in the form of cash deposits for
known workers' compensation claims which are made up of estimated collateral
required to pay claims and estimated expenses to settle the claims. The
collateral amounts are determined by the insurance carrier and are not
recoverable by the Company until all claims related to a policy period are
settled. Accordingly, the Company accrues workers compensation losses, as
provided by the insurance Carriers Third Party Administrator and charges
expense. As such, the claim reserve will not be recoverable in the near term and
accordingly, they are classified as a long term asset. The Company as well as
the Insurance Carrier evaluate the reserves regularly throughout the year and
make adjustments accordingly. If the actual cost of such claims and related
expenses exceeds the amounts estimated, additional reserves may be required.
Beginning in 2011, the Company provides case reserves for claims incurred but
not reported (IBNR). This is an estimated liability based upon evaluation of
information provided by our internal claims adjusters and our third-party
administrators`. Included in these liabilities are case reserve estimates for
the costs of the claim, administrative costs as well as legal costs. These
estimates are continually reviewed and adjustments to liabilities are reflected
in current operating results as they become known.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets
pursuant to ASC No. 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. Under ASC 350,
intangibles with definite lives continue to be amortized on a straight-line
basis over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or contractual terms.
Goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives are evaluated at least annually
for impairment by comparing the assets estimated fair values with its carrying
value, based on cash flow methodology.
Stock-based Compensation
Through December 31, 2005, the Company accounted for
stock-based employee compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC No.
718 Stock Compensation, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation. We measure stock-based compensation expense for all share-based
awards granted based on the estimated fair value of those awards at grant-date.
The fair values of stock option awards are estimated using a Black-Scholes
valuation model. The compensation costs are recognized net of any estimated
forfeitures on a straight-line basis over either the employee's requisite
service period, or other such vesting requirements as are stipulated in the
stock option award agreements. No compensation cost is recognized for equity
instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. Forfeiture
rates are estimated at grant date based on historical experience and adjusted in
subsequent periods for any differences in actual forfeitures from those
estimates.
The Company presently has no outstanding stock options.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of December 31, 2012, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer AND Chief Financial
Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation
of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation,
the Chief Executive Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2012.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As of January 1, 2013, Trucept, through Dalrada, has outsourced
all advanced accounting functions to a third party, accounting firm. All
transactions are reviewed and entered into the accounting software on a daily
basis by the accounting firm. Custody of assets, approval, and financial
reporting are now segregated with two person review for accurate
record-keeping.
Management's 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
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(f). Our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated
Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission ("COSO Framework").
Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our
internal control over financial reporting was not as effective as of December
31, 2012 due to the relatively small staff size of its financial group. As such,
our principal Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
we have a material weakness due to lack of segregation of duties and staffing
levels needed to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission our
annual report on Form 10-K. The volume of administrative work peaks at the end
of each quarter requiring additional resources to process the workload. We have
hired an additional administrative person to assist in that additional
workload
This annual report does not include an attestation report of
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal
control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to
attestation by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only
management's report on internal control in this annual report.

Wilcrick, Cardiff, Wales United Kingdom. He received a BSC in Mechanical
Engineering and a MBA and a PHD in the field of International Business
Development Studies from the Stafford University, England UK. Mr. Bonars
specific experience and contacts in the PEO industry was a key element in
appointing Mr. Bonar CEO and subsequently as a director.
Owen Naccarato Esq.
was appointed as a Director on
September 29, 2009. Mr. Naccarato has for the last fourteen years been a sole
practitioner specializing in corporate and securities law. Prior to practicing

Term of Office
Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office
until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from
office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of
directors and hold office until removed by the board. Our next annual
shareholder meeting is tentatively planned for July 20, 2013.
Committees of the Board of Directors
At present, we do not have an audit committee, compensation
committee, nominating committee, an executive committee of our board of
directors, stock plan committee or any other committee.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships among our directors or
officers.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our directors, executive officers and control persons have not
been involved in any of the following events during the past five years:
|
1.
|
any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business
of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at
the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that
time;
|
|
2.
|
any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject
to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other
minor offenses);
|
|
3.

or
|
|
4.
|
being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a
civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities
or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or
vacated.
|
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
We have no audit committee financial expert. We believe that
the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive.
Further, because of our stage of development, we believe the services of a
financial expert are not warranted.
Code of Ethics
On October 14, 2008 we adopted an amended and restated code of
ethics applicable to all of our directors, officers, employees and consultants,
which is a code of ethics as defined by applicable rules of the SEC. Our Code
of Ethics is attached as an exhibit to that annual report. If we make any
amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or other
non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers,
from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our chief executive officer, chief
financial officer, or certain other finance executives, we will disclose the
nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date and to whom it applies in
a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.
Compensation of Directors
Directors do not receive compensation for their duties as a
director.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive
officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class
of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial
ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their
ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5
respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders
are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section
16(a) reports that they file.
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received
by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe
that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors
and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with the exception
that Brian Bonar failed to file a Form 3.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.
The following table sets forth all compensation paid for
services rendered during the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 by our Chief
Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and each of the other most highly
compensated executive officers whose total compensation exceeded $100,000 in
such fiscal year. These officers are referred to as the Named Executive Officers
in this Report.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security
includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract,
arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i)
voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of
shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or
direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share
the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition,
shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has
the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option)
within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In
computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares
outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned
by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition
rights. The percentage of class is based on 49,212,123 shares of common
stock issued and outstanding as of December 31,
2012.

Changes in Control
On December 9, 2010, the board of Smart-tek Solutions Inc.
amended the marketing agreement entered into on June 17, 2009 in order to
clarify basis for calculating the shares to be issued for compensation pursuant
to the marketing agreement. The agreement was between Smart-tek Solutions Inc.,
its wholly owned subsidiary Smart-tek Automated Services, Inc., and its
affiliated businesses (hereinafter collectively referred to as the Company)
and, Brian Bonar, an individual (hereinafter referred to as the Marketing
Partner). Pursuant to the terms of the marketing agreement, Brian Bonar agreed
to provide certain services to Smart-tek Automated to promote and market the new
business of Smart-tek to prospective clients, in consideration of which
Smart-tek agreed to pay Mr. Bonar a commission consisting of the following: For
each US$1,000,000 in actual net sales of the Company subsequent to the first
aggregate of US $20,000,000 in actual net sales and up to the first aggregate of
US $30,000,000 in actual net sales of the Company, introduced by Marketing
Partner to the Company (the Client Contacts), Marketing Partner will receive
4,500,000 Shares without further compensation. The maximum aggregate Shares that
may be issued to the Marketing Partner under the Agreement are 45,000,000 Shares
or 47.8 percent ownership of the company as of December 31, 2012. Therefore,
this agreement upon reaching the performance goals laid out could result in a
change of ownership.

Corporate Governance
We do not have a standing audit committee at the present time.
Our board of directors has determined that we do not have a board member that
qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 401(e) of
Regulation S-B. We have determined that Mr. Brian Bonar is not an independent
director and that Mr. Owen Naccarato is an independent director as defined in
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).
We believe that our members of our board of directors are
capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding
internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The board of directors
of our company does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee
because we believe that the functions of an audit committee can be adequately
performed by the board of directors.

`Policy on Pre-Approval by Audit Committee of Services
Performed by Independent Auditors
The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by
our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and
approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective
services were rendered.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of
fees billed by PMB Helin Donovan, LLP and believes that the provision of
services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining
PMB Helin Donovan, LLP as our independent auditor.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Trucept,
Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Trucept, Inc. (the Company, formerly Smart-Tek Solutions, Inc.) as of December
31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss, stockholders deficit, and cash flows for the years then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated 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 audit 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 its
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 Companys 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Trucept, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, 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 consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As
discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has
sustained recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of
approximately $22 million at December 31, 2012. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements
plans in this regard are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
from this uncertainty.
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had an obligation for
$16.7 million in delinquent payroll taxes and $2.4 million in accrued penalties.
These amounts are due to the U.S. Treasury and represent collection of
employment taxes from its PEO employees. The Company is in discussions to reach
a payment plan with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding these amounts
due. The U. S. Treasury and IRS will have a priority claim on all accounts of
the Company until this is resolved.

Summary of significant accounting
policies
|
Nature of operations, basis of financial statement
presentation
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March
22, 1995 as Royce Biomedical Inc.
In August 2005, the Company changed its name from Royce
Biomedical Inc. to Smart-tek Solutions Inc. to better reflect new business
activities.
In March 2005, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent to
acquire Smart-tek Communications, Inc. (SCI) a British Columbia based security
design and installation contractor. Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement
executed in April 2005, SCI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On
July 1, 2010, the Company completed the disposition of the Companys
wholly-owned subsidiary SCI to its president and founder Perry Law.
On February 11, 2009, Smart-tek Automated Services Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in the State of Nevada.
On June 17, 2009, Brian Bonar was contracted to use his expertise and contacts
in the PEO area for the benefit of Smart-tek Automated Services, Inc.
On October 1, 2011 Smart-tek Solutions, Inc. purchased the
assets and brand name of Solvis Medical Group from American Marine LLC.
Affective January 3, 2013, the Company changed its name from
Smart-tek Solutions Inc to Trucept, Inc.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and include the following significant accounting policies:
Liquidity and Going Concern
At December 31, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents
of $546,057, a working capital deficit of approximately $19.9 million and an
accumulated deficit of approximately $22.1 million. As of December 31, 2012, the
Company had an obligation for $17.6 million in delinquent payroll taxes plus $1.4
million in accrued penalties. These amounts are due to the US Treasury and
represent collection of employment taxes from its PEO employees. The U.S.
Treasury and Internal Revenue Services (IRS) will have a priority interest in
all assets of the Company.
The Company incurred a net operating loss of approximately
$7.85 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Because of these conditions,
the Company will require additional working capital to continue operations and
develop its business. The Company intends to raise additional working capital
either through private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing, and
continues to strive to increase its revenues each year. As a result of the
outstanding obligation to the U.S. Treasury it is doubtful the Company can
obtain third party financing.
There are no assurances that the Company will be able to
achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from
operations or obtain additional financing through private placements, public
offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support the Companys working
capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any private
placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient the Company
will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that
additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms
acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the
Company may not continue its operations or execute its business plan.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys
ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going
concern.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Trucept Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant inter-company
transactions have ben eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
reported amounts and related disclosures. Specific areas, among others,
requiring the application of managements estimates and judgment includes
assumptions pertaining to credit worthiness of customers, interest rates, useful
lives of assets, future cost trends, tax strategies, and other external market
and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from estimates and
assumptions made.
Cash and equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and bank
deposits. For financial reporting purposes, the Company considers all highly
liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be
cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which
at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced
any losses related to this concentration of risk. At December 31, 2012 and 2011,
the Company did not have any deposits in excess of federally insured limits.

|
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivables are recorded at net realizable value
consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts,
as needed. The Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible
accounts receivable balances. Under the allowance method, if needed, an estimate
of uncollectible customer balances is made based upon specific account balances
that are considered uncollectible. Factors used to establish an allowance
include the credit quality and payment history of the customer. The allowance
for doubtful accounts was $ 456,705 and $150,000 as of December 31, 2012 and
2011, respectively.
The Company regularly discounts selected trade accounts
receivable from clients to a commercial factoring company. Under the terms of
the factoring agreement, the factor remits the invoiced amounts to the Company
less a portion for reserves. When paid in full, the factor remits the reserve
amount less a portion for processing fees and interest. Accounts are factored
with recourse as to credit losses. The Company reflects a liability to the
factoring company on its balance sheet for the uncollected amounts that remain
uncollected until the factored invoices have been paid in full. This liability
was $631,787 and $826,944 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Workers compensation insurance
The Company maintains reserves in the form of prepaid cash
deposits for known workers' compensation claims which are made up of estimated
collateral required to pay claims and estimated expenses to settle the claims.
The collateral amounts are determined by the insurance carrier and are not
recoverable by the Company until all claims related to a policy period are
settled. The cash deposits will not be recoverable in the near term and
accordingly, they are classified as a long term asset with a balance of
$4,633,588 and $3,440,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Company reserves prepaid cash deposits for claims incurred
but not reported (IBNR). This is an estimated liability based upon evaluation of
information provided by our internal claims adjusters and our third-party
administrators. The estimated liability for accrued workers compensation was
$1,448,021 and $1,055,980 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Included in these liabilities are case reserve estimates for the costs of the
claim, administrative costs as well as legal costs. These estimates are
continually reviewed and adjustments to liabilities are reflected in current
operating results as they become known.
Concentration of credit risk
Credit risk arises from the potential that a counterpart will
fail to perform its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk related
to its accounts receivable. The Companys receivables are comprised of a number
of debtors which minimizes the concentration of credit risk. It is managements
opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk associated
with its accounts receivable.

Equipment
Equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on a
straight-line basis using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets ranging from 3 to 5 years. The Company reviews the carrying
value of long-term assets to be held and used when events and circumstances
warrant such a review. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered
impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value
exceeds the fair market value. Fair market value is determined primarily using
the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk
involved. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs is charged to operations as
incurred. Major overhaul that extends the useful life of existing assets is
capitalized. When equipment is retired or disposed, the costs and related
accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the resulting profit or loss is
recognized in income.
Income taxes
The Company recognizes consolidated deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the
tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based
on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which
the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary
differences and for carry forwards. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for
taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized.
The Company regularly assesses uncertain tax positions in each
of the tax jurisdictions in which it has operations and accounts for the related
financial statement implications. Unrecognized tax benefits are reported using
the two-step approach under which tax effects of a position are recognized only
if it is more-likely-than-not to be sustained and the amount of the tax
benefit recognized is equal to the largest tax benefit that is greater than
fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement of the tax
position. Determining the appropriate level of unrecognized tax benefits
requires the Company to exercise judgment regarding the uncertain application of
tax law. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when information
becomes available or when an event occurs indicating a change is appropriate.
Future changes in unrecognized tax benefits requirements could have a material
impact on the results of operations. The Company files U.S. federal and U.S.
state tax returns.

Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes professional employment organizations
(PEO) revenues when each periodic payroll is delivered. The Companys net PEO
revenues and cost of PEO revenues do not include the payroll cost of its
worksite employees. Instead, PEO revenues and cost of PEO revenues are comprised
of all other costs related to its worksite employees, such as payroll taxes,
employee benefit plan premiums and workers compensation insurance. PEO revenues
also include professional service fees, which are primarily computed as a
percentage of client payroll or on a per check basis. Revenues related to the
Solvis staffing business are recognized when the services are invoiced to the
client.
In determining the pricing of the markup component of its
billings, the Company takes into consideration its estimates of the costs
directly associated with its worksite employees, including payroll taxes,
benefits and workers compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit
margin. As a result, the Companys operating results are significantly impacted
by the Companys ability to accurately estimate, control and manage its direct
costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of the
Companys gross billings.
Goodwill
The Companys goodwill was derived from the acquisition of
Solvis assets. Goodwill is the excess of cost over the fair market value of net
tangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment on
an annual basis or if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may
exist. No impairment charges were recorded in 2012 or 2011.
Share-based compensation
The Company measures the cost of employee services received in
exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair-value of the awards.
Fair value is typically the market price of the shares on the date of issuance.
Costs are measured at the grand date and recognized as compensation expense over
the employers requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the
equity award).
Net loss per share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the
net loss by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the
periods. Net loss per share on a diluted basis is computed by dividing the net
loss for the periods by the weighted average number of common and dilutive
common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is determined to be the price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. The Company follows a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three
broad levels as follows:
Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets,
are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3Unobservable inputs based on the Company's
assumptions.
The Company is required to use observable market data if such
data is available without undue cost and effort.
At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying amounts of
financial instruments, including cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable to related parties
approximate fair value because of their short maturity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed accounting pronouncements and
interpretations thereof that have effective dates during the periods reported
and in future periods. The Company believes that the following impending
standards may have an impact on its future filings. The applicability of any
standard will be evaluated by the Company and is still subject to review by the
Company.
The Company has adopted FASB ASC 220 Comprehensive Income,
which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income
(loss), its components and accumulated balances. The Company had no components
of comprehensive income (loss) for the periods presented.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02,
IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350) Testing Indefinite-Lived
Intangible Assets for Impairment
(ASU 2012-02). ASU 2012-02 is intended to
reduce the cost and complexity of the annual indefinite-lived intangible assets
impairment testing by providing entities an option to perform a qualitative
assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. As
such, there is the possibility that quantitative assessments would not need to
be performed if it is more likely than not that no impairment exists. This new
update is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal
years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The
Company has adopted ASU 2012-02 as of December 31, 2012 for its annual
impairment testing. The adoption has no impact on the Companys consolidated
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Management does not believe any other recent accounting
pronouncements issued by the FASB, the AICPA, or the SEC have a material impact
on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Depreciation and amortization of equipment was $22,314 and
$20,214 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively.
The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net
operating loss carry forwards. As of December 31, 2012 the Company had federal
and state net operating loss carry forwards of $22,014,687 that can be used to
offset future federal and state income tax. The federal and state net operating
losses are reduced by a valuation allowance, when, in the opinion of management,
utilization is not reasonably assured. A valuation allowance of 100% has been
established; based on it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax credit will not be realized.
At December 31, 2012, Trucept had available federal net
operating loss (NOL) carry forwards of $16,228,899. Under Section 382 of the
internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the use of prior losses including
NOLs is subject to rules if a corporation undergoes an ownership change.
Future issuances of equity interests by us for acquisitions or the exercise of
outstanding options to purchase our capital stock may result in an ownership
change that is large enough for a limitation on the use of NOLs to apply. If the
limitation applies, we may be unable to use a material portion of its available
NOL carry forwards to reduce future taxable income. The income tax effect of
temporary differences between financial and tax reporting gives rise to the
deferred tax asset at December 31, 2012 and 2011 as follows:

Delinquent payroll tax obligation
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company is in negotiations with the IRS to develop an
agreed-upon payment plan to extinguish its past due federal withholding tax
obligation. Failure to reach an agreement may result in the closing down of
current business activities and the liquidation of all company assets.
Lawsuit Settlement
A settlement was reached between Allegiant Professional
Business Services, Inc. (APRO) and Arch Insurance Company (ARVH) for
$2,000,000. The remaining balance to date is $750,000. Smart-tek Automated
Services and Trucept were brought in as defendants late in the lawsuit. Since
the suit was concerning APRO and Arch, APRO has been making all the settlement
payments. Of the original $2,000,000 settlement amount, $750,000 is the
remaining balance. However, if APRO were to default on the payments, Smart-tek
Automated Services Inc. would be jointly and severally liable for the remaining
balance.

3. Effective March 4, 2013, the Company has entered the defense
consulting and staffing market. With many challenges facing the US defense
market, domestic manufacturers need international sales for growth. This is an
area fraught with difficulties, from dealing with the complexity of the US State
Department regulations and the consequences of getting it wrong to dealing
with different procedures and cultures of foreign manufacturers and
governments.
