BAKHU HOLDINGS, CORP.
(A Development Stage
Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
April 30, 2011
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Planet Resources, Corp (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on April 24, 2008. The Company is in the development stage as defined under ASC 915 and its efforts are primarily in exploration and extracting of fine, extra-fine and fine-dispersed gold from tailings or refuse of mining and processing industry (technogenic deposits). In May 2009 the Company also began to look for other types of business to pursue that would benefit the shareholders. In order to pursue businesses that may not be in the mining industry the name of the Company was changed with the approval of the Directors and Shareholders to Bakhu Holdings, Corp. on May 4, 2009. The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception, April 24, 2008 through April 30, 2011 the Company has accumulated losses of $83,442.
On April 14, 2010, Mr. Xinan Zeng resigned as a director and the CEO and CFO of the Company. Mr Aidan Hwuang was appointed the CEO and CFO of the Company on April 14, 2010
On April 14, 2010, Bakhu Holdings Corp. terminated the Memorandum of Understanding signed with Shenzhen Xinhonglian Solar Energy Co (SXSE) on August 4, 2009 because a satisfactory audit could not be completed on SXSE. Bakhu Holdings Corp. will not pursue any other business dealings with SXSE. The Company will continue to evaluate other business opportunities that benefit shareholders.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a)Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
b) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $83,442 as of April 30, 2011 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of common stock.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
d) Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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.
e) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company's functional currency and its reporting currency is the United States dollar.
f) Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
g) Stock-based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
h) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Notes to the Financial Statements
April 30, 2011
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
i) Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 105,"Earnings per Share". ASC 105 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
j) Fiscal Periods
The Company's fiscal year end is July 31.
3. COMMON STOCK
The authorized capital of the Company is 150,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 per share.
In May 2008, the Company issued 75,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for total cash proceeds of $5,000.
In November 2008 and December 2008, Company issued 21,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.03 per share for total cash proceeds of $42,000.
On May 1, 2009 the Directors and Shareholders approved the cancellation of 51,000,000 common shares owned by Company President Alexander Deshin and Corporate Secretary Maksim Selivanov. This left the Company with 45,000,000 common shares outstanding
On May 4, 2009 the Directors and Shareholders approved increasing the authorized share capital of the Company from 75,000,000 to 150,000,000 common shares.
On May 4, 2009 the Directors and Shareholders approved a 15 for 1 forward split of the Company's common shares where the outstanding shares of the Company went from 3,000,000 to 45,000,000. All share figures in the financial statements have been restated to reflect the split.
4. INCOME TAXES
As of April 30, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $83,442 that may be available to reduce future years taxable income through 2029. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At April 30, 2011 the Company had related party loans outstanding, made for working capital advances, of $36,442. The loans are non-interest bearing, due upon demand and unsecured.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors", that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. 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.
Our unaudited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors".
In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to "common stock" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.
As used in this quarterly report, the terms we, us, our and our company, mean Bakhu Holdings Corp., a Nevada corporation, unless otherwise indicated.
Corporate History
We were incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on April 24, 2008 under the name Planet Resources, Corp. Since our incorporation, we intended to be in the business of re-processing tailings from previous mining operations. To date we have not generated any revenues. Because we were not successful in implementing our business plan, we considered various alternatives to ensure the viability and solvency of our company.
On May 4, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada, with an effective date of May 20, 2009, effecting the following corporate changes:
(1) |
changing our companys name to Bakhu Holdings, Corp.; | |
(2) |
increasing the authorized share capital of our company to 150,000,000 common shares, $0.001 par value; and | |
(3) |
effecting a 15 for 1 forward-split of our companys issued and outstanding common shares. |
The name change, share capital increase and forward split were approved by a majority of our shareholders on May 4, 2009. Effective May 22, 2009, we began to trade on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under our ticker symbol BKUH, which reflects the name change and forward split.
Our address is 1300 Boblett Street, Unit A254, Blaine, Washington, 98230. Our telephone number is 1-800-870-1242.
10
On August 4, 2009, we entered into a memorandum of understanding with Shenzhen Xinhonglian Solar Energy Co. (SXSE) pursuant to which SXSE would vend the shares and assets of SXSE into our company for 16,450,000 shares or a 35% interest upon the completion of successful due diligence performed by our company.
On April 14, 2010 our company terminated the memorandum of understanding signed with SXSE, dated August 4, 2009, because a satisfactory audit could not be completed.
Our management is currently evaluating other potential business opportunities that might be available to our company. Our management will begin analyzing various alternatives available to our company to ensure our survival and to preserve our shareholder's investment in our common shares. This analysis will include sourcing additional forms of financing to engage in mergers and/or acquisitions. At this stage in our operations, we believe either course is acceptable, as our operations have not been profitable and our future prospects for our original consulting business are not good.
Plan of Operation
We are a development stage company. We anticipate that the acquisition of any new business opportunity by our company will require additional financing. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to acquire the financing necessary to enable us to pursue our plan of operation. If our company requires additional financing and we are unable to acquire such funds, our business may fail.
Even if we are able to acquire a business opportunity and obtain the necessary funding, there is no assurance that any revenues would be generated by us or that revenues generated would be sufficient to provide a return to investors.
Our principal capital resources have been through the issuance of common stock, although we may use shareholder loans, advances from related parties, or borrowing in the future.
We anticipate that we will expend $25,000 during the twelve-month period ending April 30, 2012. These expenditures are broken down as follows:
Estimated Funding Required During the Twelve Month Period Ending April 30, 2012
Operating expenses | ||||
Legal fees, professional fees, management fees, office rents, etc | $ | 25,000 | ||
Total | $ | 25,000 |
At April 30, 2011, we had a cumulative working capital deficit of $83,442. If necessary, we plan to raise additional capital required to meet these immediate short-term needs and to meet the balance of our estimated funding requirements for the twelve months, primarily through the private placement of our securities.
There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, if and when it is needed, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business.
Capital Expenditures
We do not intend to invest in capital expenditures during the twelve-month period ending April 30, 2012.
Purchase of Significant Equipment
Unless we acquire a new business, we do not intend to purchase any significant equipment over the twelve months ending April 30, 2012.
11
Personnel Plan
We do not expect any material changes in the number of employees over the next 12 month period (although we may enter into employment or consulting agreements with our officers or directors). We do and will continue to outsource contract employment as needed.
Results of Operations
The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 30, 2011 and 2010

Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes our company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Our company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $83,442 as of April 30, 2011and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about our companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of common stock.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 105,"Earnings per Share". ASC 105 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Going Concern
We have not yet achieved profitable operations and are dependent on our ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. In their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2010, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosure describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
Contractual Obligations
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Managements Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of the end of our quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance in the reliability of our reports as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended April 30, 2011 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceedings or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder are an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other forward looking statements. Such forward looking statements include any projections and estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.
Such estimates, projections or other forward looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution the reader that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other forward looking statements.

Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, there is substantial uncertainty we will continue activities in which case you could lose your investment.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. As such we may have to cease activities and you could lose your investment.
Our management is currently seeking out potential business opportunities and there are numerous risks associated with any potential business opportunity.
We intend to use reasonable efforts to acquire or complete potential business opportunities that our management determines is in the best interests of our shareholders. Such combinations will be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in acquisitions. Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquisitions we make could harm our business, our strategy and our operating results in a material way.
Trading in our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board is limited and sporadic making it difficult for our shareholders to sell their shares or liquidate their investments.
Our common shares are currently listed for public trading on the OTC Bulletin Board. The trading price of our common shares has been subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common shares may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control. The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with no current business operation. There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our common shares will be matched or maintained. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance.
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for us and a diversion of managements attention and resources.
Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SECs penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholders ability to buy and sell our stock.
Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The term accredited investor refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customers confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
16
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.
In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
Trends, Risks and Uncertainties
We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our common shares.
