Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of presentation

The interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these consolidated interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007 and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.

Note 2 – History and organization of the company

The Company was organized September 11, 2006 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as The Engraving Masters, Inc. The Company is authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of its common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.

The business of the Company is to sell engraved awards and collectibles via the Internet. The Company has limited operations and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (SFAS #7), “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises,” the Company is considered a development stage company.

Note 3 - Going concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $30,755 and had no sales for the period from September 11, 2006 (inception) to September 30, 2008. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities. Management has plans to seek capital through a public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

Note 4 – Stockholders’ equity

The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock.

On September 14, 2006, the sole officer and director of the Company paid for expenses on behalf of the Company in the amount of $175. The entire amount was donated, is not expected to be repaid and is considered to be additional paid-in capital.

Note 6 – Related party transactions

Also in September 2006, an officer, director and shareholder of the Company donated cash in the amount of $100 to the Company. The full amount has been donated and is not expected to be repaid and is thus categorized as additional paid-in capital.

The Company does not lease or rent any property. Office services are provided without charge by an officer and director of the Company. Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and, accordingly, have not been reflected therein. The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities. If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such persons may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements about The Engraving Masters, Inc.’s business, financial condition and prospects that reflect management’s assumptions and beliefs based on information currently available. We can give no assurance that the expectations indicated by such forward-looking statements will be realized. If any of our management’s assumptions should prove incorrect, or if any of the risks and uncertainties underlying such expectations should materialize, The Engraving Master’s actual results may differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.

The key factors that are not within our control and that may have a direct bearing on operating results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of our services, our ability to expand our customer base, managements’ ability to raise capital in the future, the retention of key employees and changes in the regulation of our industry.

There may be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as, "believes," "expects," "intends," "plans," "anticipates," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although there may be certain forward-looking statements not accompanied by such expressions.

Management’s Discussion and Results of Operation

Since our inception, we have worked with the singular goal of executing our business plan and establishing a base of operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2008, we generated no revenues. During the year ago three month period ended September 30, 2007, $0 in revenues was realized. Since our inception on September 11, 2006 through September 30, 2008, we have not generated any sales.

In the execution of our business, we incur depreciation expense and various general and administrative costs. General and administrative expenses mainly consist of office expenditures and accounting and legal fees. During the three months ended September 30, 2008, we spent $9,023, consisting of $127 in depreciation expense on our computer equipment and $8,896 in general and administrative expenses. In the comparable three month period ended September 30, 2007, we incurred $347 in total expenses, consisting solely of general and administrative costs.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, total operating expenses were $18,996, of which $18,858 was general and administrative and $138 was depreciation expense. In contrast, total operating expenses during the year ago nine month period ended September 30, 2007 were $2,770, all of which is attributable to general and administrative expenses.

Aggregate operating expenses from our inception through September 30, 2008 were $30,755, of which $138 is attributable to depreciation expense and $30,617 in general and administrative expenses related to the execution of our business plan. No development related expenses have been or will be paid to our affiliates. We expect to continue to incur general and administrative expenses for the foreseeable future, although we cannot estimate the extent of these costs.

As a result of our lack of revenues and incurring ongoing expenses related to the implementation of our business, we have experienced net losses in all periods since our inception on September 11, 2006. In the three month period ended September 30, 2008, our net loss totaled $9,023, compared to a net loss of $347 in the prior period ended September 30, 2007. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, our net loss was $18,996, compared to a net loss of $2,770 in the year ago nine month period ended September 30, 2007. Since our inception, we have accumulated net losses in the amount of $30,755. We anticipate incurring ongoing operating losses and cannot predict when, if at all, we may expect these losses to plateau or narrow. We have not been profitable from our inception in 2006 through present 2008. There is significant uncertainty projecting future profitability due to our history of losses, lack of revenues, and due to our reliance on the performance of third parties on which we have no direct control.

Generating sales in the next 12 months is important to support our business. In order for us to achieve profitability and support our planned ongoing operations, we estimate that we must begin generating a minimum of $16,000 sales in the next 12 months. However, we cannot guarantee that we will generate any sales, let alone achieve that target. As of the date of this annual report we are a development stage company with no revenues and a limited operational history. We have a website located at www.theengravingmasters.com to serve as our sole method of attracting customers and generating sales. We intend to operate solely as an online company. All sales are expected to be realized through our web site. To date, we have not received any orders via the website.

Our management believes that most organizations are postponing or suspending purchasing engraved award products, such as we sell. As a result, we have decided to delay our promotional plan to drive traffic to our web site. We intended to implement search engine placement and keyword submission optimization services to increase the visibility of our website. To date, we have not developed or implemented any marketing strategy and do not intend to do so until the first quarter of 2009, at the earliest.

As of September 30, 2008, we had $10,238 of cash on hand, which our management believes these funds are sufficient to implement our planned strategies and establish a base of operations over the next 12 months. Our management expects that we will experience net cash out-flows for the fiscal year 2008, given developmental nature of our business. We cannot predict the stability of current or projected overhead or that we will generate sufficient revenues to maintain our operations without the need for additional capital. If we do not generate sufficient cash flow to support our operations over the next 12 months, or if our overhead increases substantially, we may need to raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash in order to continue as a going concern. There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. We can not assure you that any financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. As such, our principal accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we have limited operations and have not fully commenced planned principal operations.

Our management does not anticipate the need to hire additional full- or part- time employees over the next 12 months, as the services provided by our current officers and directors appear sufficient at this time. Our officers and directors work for us on a part-time basis, and are prepared to devote additional time, as necessary. We do not expect to hire any additional employees over the next 12 months.

There are no known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on our revenues from continuing operations.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On September 14, 2006, we issued 6,000,000 shares of our common stock to David A. Uddman, a founding shareholder, officer and director. This sale of stock did not involve any public offering, general advertising or solicitation. The shares were issued in exchange for services performed by this founding shareholder on our behalf in the amount of $6,000. Mr. Uddman received compensation in the form of common stock for performing services related to the formation and organization of our Company, including, but not limited to, designing and implementing a business plan and providing administrative office space for use by the Company; thus, these shares are considered to have been provided as founder’s shares. Additionally, the services are considered to have been donated, and have resultantly been expensed and recorded as a contribution to capital. At the time of the issuance, Mr. Uddman had fair access to and was in possession of all available material information about our company, as Mr. Uddman is the President and a director of The Engraving Masters, Inc. The shares bear a restrictive transfer legend. On the basis of these facts, we claim that the issuance of stock to our founding shareholders qualifies for the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
