Financial Plan Overview TempShadow Ink’s financial plan is based on conservative estimates and assumptions. TempShadow Ink plans to start operations January 1, 2015; the financial statements will be for a 5-year period covering 2015-2019. Start-up Funding The start-up funding for TempShadow Ink will consist of the Research & Development (R&D) that will be needed to develop the temporary tattoo ink. The company plans to hire the R&D Company Cargill. The contract states that an ink will need to be developed within 6 months of the starting date, January 2015. Once the tattoo ink is developed, TempShadow Ink will begin a two-year testing phase with volunteer test subjects. This will happen from mid-2015 through mid-2017. The start-up funding will last about two and a half years. At that time, the goal is to have the ink distributed to tattoo parlors around the United States. The company estimates it will need approximately $600,000 to make this happen. Use of Funds Each owner of TempShadow Ink plans on contributing $50,000, which will total $200,000. Danny Smith and Mark Sanchez are going to get a SBA Loan (Veteran’s Advantage) of $100,000 and then the company is asking for investor funds of $300,000. The total budget for TempShadow Ink will be $600,000. The first two years 2015-2016 will be unprofitable for TempShadow Ink, once the testing phase is successfully completed and ink is being distributed, TempShadow Ink plans to begin making a profit.
