Business Development
History
Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation, a Nevada corporation organized on September 8, 1999, has been a development stage company engaged in investigating prospective business opportunities with the intent to acquire or merge with one or more businesses. In March 2002, we changed our corporate name to Talavera’s Fine Furniture in anticipation of making an acquisition. However, the acquisition was not finalized and in November 2006, we changed our name back to Eastgate Acquisitions. In October 2007, the name was changed to Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation. Subsequently, we continued our search for business opportunities.
On January 15, 2012, we entered into a Patent Acquisition Agreement to acquire certain products, formulas, processes, proprietary technology and/or patents and patent applications related to pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food supplements and consumer health products (collectively referred to as the “Products”). In exchange for the acquired Products and related technology, we will issue 10 million shares of our authorized, but previously unissued common stock, post-split as discussed below. The closing of the agreement is contingent upon realizing initial financing of $300,000, which has been revised to $50,000.
At the closing of the agreement, the seller will assign to Eastgate all rights, title and interests in the Products, free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests or other encumbrances. Also as a condition to the closing, the seller will cause to be filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and any foreign patent office that is relevant to the Products, all documents and appropriate assignments to transfer and assign the Products and all proprietary rights and technology to Eastgate.
In addition to the 10 million shares of common stock to be issued to the seller of the Products, the agreement provides that at the closing, Eastgate will issue an additional 10 million shares of common stock to certain individuals in consideration for services rendered for and monies advanced to Eastgate. Further, following the closing of the agreement, Eastgate will name at least two new directors to its board of directors, to be designated by the seller and Eastgate’s current management. Those persons have not yet been named. It is also anticipated that our corporate name will be changed to a name selected by the board, which name will be intended to reflect the acquisition of Products and our anticipated new business endeavors. The agreement is subject to completion of due diligence and certain other usual conditions.
Forward Stock Split
On March 6, 2012, we effected a forward stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a 7.75 shares for one share basis. Prior to the forward stock split, we had 1.5 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding, which was increased to approximately 11,625,000 shares following the split. All further references herein to our outstanding common stock will be on a post-split basis.
Our principal executive offices are located at 2681 East Parleys Way, Suite 204, Salt Lake City, Utah 84109 and our telephone number is (801) 322-3401.
Intended Business Activities
We have a limited operating history and make no representation, nor is any intended, that we will be able to successfully carry on future business activities. There can be no assurance that we will have the ability to finalize the acquisition of Products or any other business opportunity that will be of material value.
Upon the successful closing of the agreement and acquisition of the Products, we intend to become engaged in developing, formulating and commercializing innovative pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food supplements and consumer health products. We plan to apply novel technologies for improvement of efficacy of the Products, based on natural or well-established compounds. It is our intention complete formulation of the Products and to ultimately market the commercialized products and compounds.
Our goal is to develop novel formulations of natural compounds and OTC products that have limitations in effective use for human consumption, by using a proprietary, self-emulsifying drug delivery system, predominantly forming nanoemulsions. We anticipate that we will be able to develop patentable improved formulations of such products that can be used for treatment of various diseases and symptoms. By using a self-emulsifying drug delivery technology, we believe that the resulting products will enable lower dosing, fewer side effects and alternative dosage forms, as well as commercial advantages, such as extended patent protection and broader use. The self-emulsifying drug delivery technology includes two different approaches to improve the effectiveness of poorly bioavailable drugs and provide new methods of delivery, namely, (i) self-nanoemulsifying vehicle for oral or topical use and (ii) delivery systems with improved solubility of incorporated compounds.
As of the date hereof, the agreement has not been finalized and there is no assurance that the acquisition of Products will be completed or that we will engage in our intended business. Initially, the closing of the agreement was contingent on the sellers of the Products raising $300,000 on behalf of Eastgate. The parties subsequently agreed to amend the agreement, whereby the closing may occur upon raising $50,000. At the closing, Eastgate is obligated to pay $50,000 to certain parties in consideration for services related to the consummation of the acquisition. Eastgate will also be obligated to pay an additional $50,000 upon realizing subsequent funding after the closing. There can be no assurance that the initial funding will be completed and the acquisition closed, or that if the acquisition is completed, we will be able to secure addition funds to pay the additional $50,000 and to have ample funds to operate our new intended business. We have not entered into any definitive agreement or arrangement to secure the aforementioned funding. If the requisite funds are realized, we anticipate that the acquisition will be completed in the second quarter of 2012.
Because we are a development stage company, it is unlikely that we could make a public sale of securities or be able to borrow any significant sum from either a commercial or private lender to raise the necessary funds to close the acquisition of Products and to begin operations. Management will attempt to acquire funds on the best available terms. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when and if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on reasonable and/or acceptable terms.
Competition
Because we have not finalized the acquisition of Products, we cannot evaluate the type and extent of future competition. There are numerous companies engaged in development and marketing of products and technologies similar to those we will attempt to develop. Ultimately, we will be in direct competition with these other companies, most of which will have greater financial and technological resources that us, and it will be difficult to successfully compete with these companies.
Employees
As of the date hereof, we do not have any employees and have no plans for hiring employees until such time as the acquisition agreement is finalized. At that time we will look to engage qualified personnel to conduct our intended business. We may find it necessary to periodically hire part-time clerical help on an as-needed basis.
Facilities
We currently use as our principal place of business the business office of our President and director, Geoff Williams, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Although we have no written agreement and currently pay no rent for the use of the facilities, we contemplate that if the acquisition of Products is completed, we will secure commercial office space from which to conduct business. However, until that time, the type office and other facilities that will be required is unknown. We have no current plans to secure such commercial office space until the closing of the acquisition.
Industry Segments
No information is presented regarding industry segments. We are presently a development stage company that has been seeking potential business opportunities. Reference is made to the statements of income included in this Form 10-K for a report of our operating history for the past two fiscal years.

PART II
Item 5.
Item 5.
Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
There is not currently, nor has there ever been, a public trading market for our common stock. As of the date hereof, there are approximately 37 stockholders of record of our common stock. We anticipate that in the future we will request a broker/dealer to make an initial application to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to have our shares quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”). The application will consist of current corporate information, financial statements and other documents as required by Rule 15c2-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Inclusion on the OTCBB will permit price quotations for our shares to be published by that service. Although we intend to request that an application to the OTCBB be submitted, we do not anticipate a public trading market in our shares in the immediate future. Any future secondary trading of our shares may be subject to certain state imposed restrictions. Except for the application to the OTCBB, there are no plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any person concerning the development of a trading market in any of our securities. There can be no assurance that our shares will be accepted for trading on the OTCBB or any other recognized trading market. Also, there can be no assurance that a public trading market will develop following acceptance by the OTCBB or at any other time in the future or, that if such a market does develop, that it can be sustained.
The ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of states require that an issuer's securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in that state. Presently, we have no plans to register our securities in any particular state.
Penny Stock Rule
It is unlikely that our securities will be listed on any national or regional exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market in the foreseeable future. Therefore our shares most likely will be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is:
●
registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC;
●
authorized for quotation on The Nasdaq Stock Market;
●
issued by a registered investment company;
●
excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the issuer's net tangible assets; or
●
exempted from the definition by the SEC.
A broker-dealer who sells penny stocks to a person other than an established customer or accredited investor is subject to additional sales practice requirements. An accredited investor is generally defined as a person with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.
For transactions covered by these rules, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, a monthly statement must be sent to the client disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
These requirements may be considered cumbersome by broker-dealers and could impact the willingness of a particular broker-dealer to make a market in our shares, or they could affect the value at which our shares trade. Classification of the shares as penny stocks increases the risk of an investment in our shares.
Rule 144
All of our outstanding common shares were issued in private transactions and not registered with the SEC and, when issued, were deemed restricted securities. Rule 144 is the common means for stockholders to resell restricted securities and for affiliates, to sell their securities, either restricted on non-restricted (control) shares. Rule 144 was amended by the SEC, effective February 15, 2008.
Under the amended Rule 144, an affiliate of a company filing reports under the Exchange Act who has held their shares for more than six months, may sell in any three-month period an amount of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
●
the average weekly trading volume in the common stock, as reported through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association, during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, or
●
1% of the shares then outstanding.
Sales by affiliates under Rule 144 are also subject to certain requirements as to the manner of sale, filing appropriate notice and the availability of current public information about the issuer.
A non-affiliate stockholder of a reporting company who has held their shares for more than six months, may make unlimited resales under Rule 144, provided only that the issuer has available current public information about itself. After a one-year holding period, a non-affiliate may make unlimited sales with no other requirements or limitations.
An important exception to the above described availability of the amended Rule 144 is that Rule 144 is not available for either a reporting or non-reporting shell company, unless the company:
●
has ceased to be a shell company;
●
is subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations;
●
has filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding twelve months; and
●
at least one year has elapsed from the time the company filed with the SEC current Form 10 type information reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.
Following a successful acquisition of an operating business, we would anticipate filing with the SEC a report that will include comprehensive information that reflects that we are no longer a shell company.
We cannot predict the effect any future sales under Rule 144 may have on the market price of our common stock, if a market for our shares develops, but such sales may have a substantial depressing effect on such market price.
Dividends Policy
We have never declared cash dividends on our common stock, nor do we anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
We are a development stage company currently with no assets and/or capital and limited operations. Ongoing expenses, including the costs associated with the preparation of reports and filing with the SEC, have been paid for by advances from a stockholder, which are evidenced on our financial statements as payable-related party. We require only minimal capital to maintain our corporate viability, although upon the completion of the acquisition of Products our financial requirements will increase significantly. In the interim, additional necessary funds will most likely be provided by officers and directors, although there is no agreement related to future funds and there is no assurance such funds will be available. However, unless we are able to complete the acquisition of Products or obtain significant outside financing, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Forward Looking and Cautionary Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will” “should," “expect," "intend," "plan," anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of such terms. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Although forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment, actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Results of Operations
We have not reported any revenues since inception and incurred a net loss of $29,920 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to a loss of $24,354 for the year ended December 31, 2010. We have also reported a cumulative net loss of $121,388 since inception through December 31, 2011. The increase in net loss for 2011 is attributed primarily to additional professional expenses for accounting and legal fees. Interest expense increased to $5,977 for 2011 from $5,434 for 2010, representing the increased amount of interest on payables to related parties.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Expenses incurred during 2011 and 2010 have been paid for by a stockholder. At December 31, 2011, we had current liabilities of $89,188 compared to $65,268 at December 31, 2010. The increase at December 31, 2011 is primarily attributed to the $11,388 increase in accounts payable, from $1,020 in 2010 to $12,408 in 2011. Also contributing to the increase in current liabilities was the $6,555 increase in the payable - related party, from $53,035 in 2010 to $59,590 in 2011 due to the increase in payment of expenses by a stockholder. This increase also attributed to the $5,977 increase in accrued interest-related party from $11,213 in 2010 to $17,190 in 2011. Because we have no cash reserves or revenue source, we expect to continue to rely on the
stockholder to pay expenses until such time as we can successfully complete an acquisition of or merger with an existing, operating company. There is no assurance that we will complete such an acquisition or merger or that the stockholder will continue indefinitely to pay expenses.
In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a material effect on our operations until such time as we successfully complete an acquisition or merger. At that time, management will evaluate the possible effects of inflation related to our business and operations following a successful acquisition or merger.
Plan of Operation
We anticipate closing the acquisition of Products during the second quarter of 2012. At the time of closing, of which there can be no assurance, we will establish a plan to develop the Products for the next 12 months. In the event the acquisition is not finalized, we will continue to seek out new business opportunities.
If we our search for new business opportunities, will actively seek out and investigate possible opportunities with the intent to acquire or merge with one or more business ventures. We do not restrict our search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and it may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature.
Because we lack sufficient funds, it may be necessary for officers, directors or stockholders to advance funds and we will accrue expenses until such time as a successful business consolidation can be accomplished. Management intends to hold expenses to a minimum and to obtain services on a contingency basis when possible. Further, directors will defer any compensation until such time as an acquisition or merger can be accomplished and will strive to have the business opportunity provide their remuneration. However, if we engage outside advisors or consultants in our search for business opportunities, it may be necessary to attempt to raise additional funds. As of the date hereof, we have not made any arrangements or definitive agreements to use outside advisors or consultants or to raise any capital.
If we need to raise capital, most likely the only method available would be the private sale of securities. Because we are a development stage company, it is unlikely that we could make a public sale of securities or be able to borrow any significant sum from either a commercial or private lender. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when and if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on acceptable terms.
We do not intend to use any employees, with the possible exception of part-time clerical assistance on an as-needed basis. Outside advisors or consultants will be used only if they can be obtained for minimal cost or on a deferred payment basis. Management is confident that it will be able to operate in this manner and to continue its search for business opportunities during the next twelve months. Also, we do not anticipate making any significant capital expenditures until we can successfully complete an acquisition or merger.
Net Operating Loss
We have accumulated a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $54,312 at of December 31, 2011. This loss carry forward may be offset against future taxable income through the year 2031. The use of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards. In the event of certain changes in control, there will be an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be used. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 because it has been fully offset by a valuation reserve. The use of future tax benefit is undeterminable because we presently has no operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basic Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Dividends
The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during any of the periods shown.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has no component of other comprehensive income. Accordingly, net income equals comprehensive income for the period ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Advertising Costs
The Company’s policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company had not incurred any advertising expense as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. The Company’s predecessor operated as entity exempt from Federal and State income taxes.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Accounting Basis
The basis is accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.
Stock-Based Compensation
As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees.
The Company adopted ASC 718 effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had nor is not expected to have a material impact on the company’s financial position or statements.
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 is material to stockholders.

Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosures and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this annual report, our chief executive officer, also acting as principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, it was concluded that as of December 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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 management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Our control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
●
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets;
●
provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures are being made only with proper authorizations of management and directors; and
●
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on our assessment and those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2011.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management has concluded that controls over both disclosure controls and financial reporting controls are ineffective due to material weaknesses in maintaining sufficient segregation of duties. Due our size and limited resources, we are unable at this time to implement and maintain proper segregation of duties.
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or would be likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.

Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. We believe that no reports were filed during the fiscal year 2011.
Code of Ethics
We currently do not have a code of ethics. During the current fiscal year, we do intend to adopt a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions
Item 11.
Item 11.
Executive Compensation.
We have not had a bonus, profit sharing, or deferred compensation plan for the benefit of employees, officers or directors. We have not paid any salaries or other compensation to officers, directors or employees for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Further, we have not entered into an employment agreement with any of our officers, directors or any other persons and no such agreements are anticipated in the immediate future. We expect that directors will defer any compensation until such time as an acquisition or merger can be accomplished and will strive to have the business opportunity provide their remuneration. As of the date hereof, no person has accrued any compensation.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
There have been no material transactions during the past two fiscal years between our company and any officer, director, nominee for election as director, or any stockholder owning greater than five percent (5%) of our outstanding shares, nor any member of the above referenced individuals' immediate families.
Our officers and directors are subject to the doctrine of corporate opportunities, only insofar as it applies to business opportunities in which we have indicated an interest, either through our proposed business plan or by way of an express statement of interest contained in our corporate minutes. If directors are presented with business opportunities that may conflict with business interests identified by us, such opportunities must be promptly disclosed to the board of directors and made available to us. In the event the board rejects an opportunity so presented and only in that event, any officer or director may avail themselves of such an opportunity. Every effort will be made to resolve any conflicts that may arise in favor of our company. There can be no assurance, however, that these efforts will be successful.
In the event of a successful acquisition or merger, a finder's fee, in the form of cash or securities, may be paid to persons instrumental in facilitating the transaction. We have not established any criteria or limits for the determination of a finder's fee, although it is likely that an appropriate fee will be based upon negotiations by management, the appropriate business opportunity and the finder. Such fees are estimated to be customarily between 1% and 5% of the size of the transaction, based upon a sliding scale of the amount involved. Management cannot at this time make an estimate as to the type or amount of a potential finder's fee that might be paid, but is expected to be comparable to consideration normally paid in like transactions. It is unlikely that a finder's fee will be paid to an affiliate because of the potential conflict of interest that might result. Any such fee would have to be approved by the stockholders or a disinterested board of directors.
None of our directors are deemed to be independent directors. We do not have a compensation, audit or nominating committee, rather those functions are carried out by the board as a whole.
Item 14.
Item 14.
Principal Accounting Fees and Services.
We do not have an audit committee and as a result our entire board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee. Our board of directors will approve in advance the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and non-audit services. As a result, we do not rely on pre-approval policies and procedures.
Audit Fees
Our auditors, Sadler, Gibb & Associates, billed us $2,500 for the audit of our annual financial statements included in this annual report for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. They also billed us $3,000 for the review of our quarterly reports during 2010
Audit Related Fees
For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no fees billed for assurance and related services by our current auditors Sadler, Gibb & Associates relating to the performance of the audit of our financial statements which are not reported under the caption "Audit Fees" above.
Tax Fees
For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, no fees were billed by our current auditors Sadler, Gibb & Associates for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.
We do not use Sadler, Gibb & Associates for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage Sadler, Gibb & Associates to provide compliance outsourcing services.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Sadler, Gibb & Associates and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Sadler, Gibb & Associates’ independence.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ 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 its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits 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 Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company had net losses of $29,920 and $24,354 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and accumulated losses of $121,388 as of December 31, 2011, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2011 and 2010
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation (The Company) was organized on September 8, 1999, under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced principle operations as of the balance sheet date.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basic Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Dividends
The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during any of the periods shown.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has no component of other comprehensive income. Accordingly, net income equals comprehensive income for the period ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Advertising Costs
The Company’s policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company had not incurred any advertising expense as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. The Company’s predecessor operated as entity exempt from Federal and State income taxes.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 39% to net the loss before provision for income taxes for the following reasons:
Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of:
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of $54,312 for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. When a change in ownership occurs, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Accounting Basis
The basis is accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.

Stock-Based Compensation.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees.
The Company adopted ASC 718 effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had nor is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principle, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has accumulated deficit of $121,072 as of December 31, 2011. The Company currently has limited liquidity, and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time.
Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends to position itself so that it may be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 - NOTE PAYABLE-RELATED PARTY
Through December 31, 2009, the Company had a note payable to a shareholder of $38,135 for various services provided and expenses paid by a shareholder on behalf of the Company. During 2011 and 2010, the same shareholder paid for additional expenses of $6,555 and $14,990, respectively, which have been accrued in note payable to related party at December 31, 2011 and 2010. The note payable is unsecured, accrues interest at 10% per annum and is due upon demand. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company owes $17,190 and $11,213 of accrued interest to the related party, respectively.
NOTE 4 - CONTRIBUTED SERVICES
During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, a related-party has contributed various administrative services to the Company. These services include basic management and accounting services, and utilization of office space and equipment. These services have been valued at $6,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On March 19, 2012, the Company effected a forward stock split of all issued and outstanding common stock on a seven and three-quarters (7.75) shares for one (1) basis. The Company’s stock was increased from 1.5 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding to approximately 11.625 million shares following the split. In accordance with ASC 505, the effect of the forward stock split has been retroactively applied to these financial statements.
On January 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Patent Acquisition Agreement to acquire certain products, formulas, processes, proprietary technology and/or patents and patent applications related to pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food supplements and consumer health products. In exchange for the acquired products and technology, the Company has agreed to issue at the closing to the seller 10 million shares of the Company’s authorized, but previously unissued common stock, post-split as discussed below. The closing of the agreement is contingent upon realizing initial financing of $50,000. The Company has not entered into any agreement or arrangement to secure the aforementioned funding and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the funds.
