Background:
Nate’s Pancakes is a food manufacturing and product development company with corporate offices in Huntington Beach, CA. The product development and food science facilities are based in Fairfield CA and our production facilities are based in Southern California. Nate’s Pancakes is owned and operated by Nate’s Food Co., which is a public company.

Nate's Food Co. was created by Nate Steck. Over the past 20 years, Nate Steck has started 5 different food companies that have generated approximately $200 Million in revenue and in which 3 of the companies were bought by other food companies.

Currently, Nate developed Nate's Pancakes which is being sold by Nate's Food Co. Nate also created Batter Blaster which was sold in over 13,000 stores and grossed over $40 Million in sales. The market size for pancakes and waffles (which includes frozen waffles/pancakes and dry mixes) is approximately $1.1 Billion. Batter Blaster sold $40 Million or approximately 3.7% of the total market size.

Nate previously created product lines that focused on a single market. However, with Nate's Food the goal is to expand the Company's product line to include up to 10 products in the next year (2015) and to continually expand the product line.

**Upcoming:**

Flavor Extension. By increasing the product line of Nate's Pancakes to include flavor extensions, the Company would expect to triple its total distributions points and thereby increasing sales by 200%-300%.

One-Minute Omelet. The Company has begun developing the One-Minute Omelet. The United States produces nearly 100 Billion eggs per year with sales in excess of $8.5 Billion per year. If the Company is able to have the same revenue penetration as Batter Blaster it would generate in excess of $300 Million in revenue.

Guacamole. The Company has begun developing a guacamole product line. The market for avocados and guacamole is approximately $3.5 Billion and in the United States nearly 1.3 Billion avocados are consumed on Super Bowl weekend alone. If the Company is able to have the same revenue penetration as Batter Blaster it would generate in excess of $129 Million in revenue.

Questions with Answers from Company. All of these questions can be found in the 8k links at the bottom of the page:

November 18, 2014:
Q1. Can you provide additional information on the China deal such as pricing and time-frame?
A1. The Company does not disclose the cost it sells product. As each transaction with a customer may have a different price and would weaken the bargaining power the Company. The time-frame is the same as the roll-out in the United States. The Company will initially roll-out in the United States and then expand globally. The focus is on the United States but China provides the Company a huge upside due to the expanding population, the increase in demand for westernized foods and that no major US Company in the space.

Q.2. What is the status of the on-line distributor agreement?
A.2. The terms of the agreement should be finalized by the end of the month. The Company is meeting with its master food broker next week and will get an update on what stores the food broker is looking at and the status of the discussions. Once the Company finalizes the agreements with the food brokers we will finalize the agreement with the on-line distributor.

Q.3. What is the cost to produce a can?
A.3. The Company does not disclose the cost to produce each can. The Company developed a unique can and value system for its products. The can and value are not being used by any other Company. As such, the Company had to build new machinery to manufacturer the cans and values. The Company is currently looking to keep this intellectual property in house.
Q.4. Does the Company produce its own product or does it use a 3 rd party factory?
A.4. Currently the Company uses a 3 rd party factory (the same factory as batter blaster). However, the Company has begun to build its own factory capable of producing 50 Million cans a year.

Q.5. Can the Company negotiate with grocery stores directly?
A.5. No. Grocery stores (especially the larger ones) only accept product from their approved distributors. The stores will inspect the factory to verify that the factory meets all food safety requirements.

Q.6. Does the company ship product directly to each store?
A.6. The Company does not ship directly to each store. The product is picked up from the factory and sent a central distribution center and then sent to the distributor’s distribution centers. This one reason the Company uses a distributor so that the Company does not have to freight product to each store.

Q.7. How many cans will the initial grocery stores order?
A.7. This is part of the current discussions with the customers. For example, the initial order for a membership club store with a roll-out of 40 stores would be approximately 56 pallets. Each pallet has 40 cases with 24 cans per case for a total number of cans of 53,760.

Q.8. Have you finalized the terms for the financing?
A.8. The financing is for purchase order financing. The Company has sufficient cash to fulfil all of its current purchase orders. The purchase order financing is similar to a line of credit that uses the purchase order as collateral. Once the Company has a purchase order that it needs to use the line of credit to fulfil the terms are finalized based on that individual purchase order (since it is the collateral). For example, if the Company receives a 100,000 can a week order it would need to produce 600,000 cans prior to receiving payment on the initial order. This is where the purchase order financing provides the capital needed to produce those cans until payment is received.



November 12, 2014:
Q1. Can I invest directly into the Company?
A1. The Company currently has sufficient cash to operate under its business plan. With the purchase order financing the Company will be able to expand and pay for its national roll-out without the need of additional capital.

Q2. I am a current shareholder of NHMD and am curious about the launch party in Las Vegas on November 15th. Who all aside from Nate Steck will be attending the party? Will there be members from WB Partners? Will there be any potential vendors/customers such as grocery stores or online food delivery sites? Will there be any of the guacamole that Nate has been developing available?
A2. Both members of the Board of Directors, Nate Steck and Marc Kassoff, will be attending. Initially, WB Partners was not expected to attend as they were planning on being in New York City. One of the initial companies they took public has moved up and is now listed on the New York Stock Exchange. But, we are glad they will be attending the event.

There will not be any vendors or customers as this event is just for any shareholders who wanted to attend and taste waffles and pancakes with Nate. It was also intended to provide a casual forum where shareholders could interact with Nate and get a first-hand experience of the products. Sadly, the guacamole is still in its development phase and won’t be available for tasting.

Q3. How soon can we expect an update in regard to the contract NHMD was finalizing in regard to the 100,000 can order that was to be sold online?
A3. The company is waiting to see what the response on the 17 th of November before finalizing with an the online retailer as we may consider keeping that in house.

Q4. Is it possible for the company to issue any sort of guidance in regard to what it feels the value of the company currently is and what it will be in a year? Does the company believe it is currently undervalued given its products and connections?
A4. The Company cannot provide any information regarding this. Only a license broker, investment advisor or analyst would be able to provide this information.


November 6, 2014:
Q1. I thought the company was foregoing online sales through the company website?
A1. The Company is selling a limited production run of its products before it becomes available in the stores. The Company made the decision to sell this limited production run so those individuals who wanted to try the product prior to our grocery store roll-out would have that opportunity. Additionally, the Company will sell a limited production of each new product as they become available prior to those products being sold in stores. For example, the Company is working towards launching a new flavor of its pancake and waffle mix in January 2015.


October 31, 2014:
Q1. Are any deals with grocery stores dependent on the development of new products?
A1. Any deals with grocery stores are not dependent on new products or flavors. However, the ability to discuss and show added products makes Nate’s Pancakes more attractive.

Currently, the Company has to finalize the pricing terms with the food brokers before any deals with grocery stores can be finalized. The Company also modified the product to meet the food safety requirements of retailers and to increase the shelf life of the product. The new formula provides a longer shelf life but results in a thicker batter. As a result, Nate over the past week had to developed a new can and delivery system. Nate approved this custom can on October 30, 2014 and the Company began to run product through its new production line.

The next steps in finalizing the grocery store deals are: (1) sending new samples to the food brokers; (2) finalize pricing with suppliers for the new cans and formula, and (3) finalize the pricing with food brokers. Once, those steps are completed the final negotiations with grocery stores regarding delivery dates can be finalized.

During this time the Company has begun producing product to supply our current agreement and storing product to fulfill the new contracts we anticipate.

Q2: Is the shelf stable a condition on any deals with grocery stores?
A2: Having a shelf stable products has no impact at this time with any deals with grocery stores. The refrigerated product is what was sold through Batter Blaster and will be the product sold. The longer shelf life allows the product to be shipped and stored at a much lower cost.


October 29, 2014:
Q1. When is your 10Q due to be filed with the SEC?
A1. The 10-Q for the Three Months Ending August 31, 2014 is due 45 days after the Company’s Form 10 went effective. The Company’s Form 10 went effective on September 27, 2014. As such the Company’s 10-Q is due November 11, 2014. The Company has already sent the 10-Q to its auditors and expects it to be filed in November.

Q2. Where are the productions facility located?
A2. Our corporate offices are in Huntington Beach, CA. Our product development and food science facilities are based in Fairfield CA and our production facilities are currently based in the Los Angeles Area.

Q3. Why are you expanding with the One Minute Omelet?
A3. Products take a long time to develop. The Company was able to jump start the pancake and waffle batter because of Nate’s history with Batter Blaster. But even with that history it has taken months to get Nate’s Pancakes to a point where Nate is happy with the product. There are a number of moving parts that are involved with making the product for sale other than just the product inside the can. For example, to increase the shelf life of Nate’s Pancakes the product has to be more viscous than Batter Blaster which required an entirely new delivery system to be developed and custom valves for the cans to be made.

The Company is currently in the process of finalizing details with food brokers for placing Nate’s Pancakes. By beginning the process of developing additional products now, the Company is getting a jump-start on expanding its product line and thereby increasing the attractiveness of the Company to grocery stores since we will be able to delivery more than just one product. Additionally, adding the additional products reduces the overall capital costs for the company since the Company is able to take advantage of the resources it has by having the food science facility work on the new products while corporate is finalizing the details with the food brokers.

Our goal would be to have the new products available in 2015.

Q4. If you haven’t signed any contracts for Nate’s Pancakes why expand?
A4. The Company is finalizing the terms and product with food brokers. The food brokers have been involved with products Nate has developed for over 10 years. Additionally, the grocery stores that we are planning on being sold in are the same 13,000 stores that Batter Blaster was sold in. As such, unlike other companies the question is only when will the terms be finalized not if they will be. Since the Company is comfortable with the food brokers, it was decided to get a jump-start on additional products.

Q5. Did you have any revenue last quarter?
A5. No the Company did not have any revenue last quarter. The Company had approximately $70,000 in expenses related to food development.
