CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in such forward-looking statements. We cannot give any guarantee that the plans, intentions or expectations described in the forward looking statements will be achieved. All forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those factors described in the Risk Factors section of our registration statement on Form S-1 that was filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission on October 26, 2010. Readers should carefully review such risk factors as well as factors described in other documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as guidance, may, will, should, expects, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates, predicts, projects, potential, proposed, intended, or continue or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully, because they discuss our expectations about our future operating results or our future financial condition or state other forward-looking information. There may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. You should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in our risk factors and other disclosures could substantially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition, and that upon the occurrence of any of these events, the trading price of our securities could decline. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, growth rates, and levels of activity, performance or achievements. Factors that may cause actual results, our performance or achievements, or industry results, to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, without limitation:
-
our ability to obtain sufficient working capital to support our business plans;
-
our ability to expand our product offerings;
-
our ability to continue to receive orders from our major client;
-
our ability to survive through the current difficult retail environment and changing economic conditions that may further adversely affect consumer demand and spending, and as a result, adversely affect our financial condition
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which reflect managements opinions only as of the date thereof. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision of our forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

AVENUE SOUTH LTD.
( A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Avenue South Ltd. and its subsidiary have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulations and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2010.
In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the three-month period have been made. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year. When used in these notes, the terms "Company", "we", "us" or "our" mean Avenue South Ltd. and its subsidiary included in these consolidated financial statements.
2. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
On July 6, 2007, our principal stockholder acquired 100% of the equity of Avenue South, Inc., a North Carolina corporation. On July 6, 2007, Avenue South Ltd., a Nevada corporation was formed by our principal stockholder and our principal stockholder entered into a share exchange agreement, pursuant to which all the common stock held by our principal stockholder in Avenue South, Inc. was acquired by Avenue South Ltd. by issuing 2 million common shares to our principal stockholder. Avenue South Ltd. then became the parent corporation owning 100% of Avenue South, Inc.
Avenue South, Inc. was incorporated in the State of North Carolina on February 15, 2005 (date of predecessor inception) with the principal business objective of a one-stop web based supplier of imported and domestic art reproductions, collectibles and home décor items that are difficult to find in traditional home furnishing retail outlets. All items are sold through the Companys website, www.avenuesouth.com.
The Companys success will depend in part on its ability to market and sell its products over the internet and through other marketing channels. There can be no assurance that these marketing efforts will be successful. The Company believes that it currently has sufficient cash and financing commitments to meet its funding requirements over the next year. In addition, the Company may wish to selectively pursue additional products complementary to those of the Company in the future in order to expand its presence in the marketplace and achieve operating efficiencies. The Company may expect to seek to obtain additional funding through debt or equity transactions. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Avenue South Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Avenue South, Inc., after elimination of all material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits.
A summary of significant accounting policies of Avenue South Ltd. (A Development Stage Company) (the Company or Successor) is presented to assist in understanding the Companys financial statements. The accounting policies presented in these footnotes conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. The Company has not realized any significant revenues from its planned principal business purpose and is considered to be in a development stage in accordance with ASC 915, Development Stage Entities.

AVENUE SOUTH LTD.
( A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Inventory
Inventories consist of finished goods of home furnishing products. Cost is stated at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. The Company has not recorded an allowance for slow-moving or obsolete inventory. There was no inventory on hand at September 30, 2010.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. The differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities are determined annually. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for those differences that have future tax consequences using the currently enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the period in which they are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax asset accounts to the amounts that will more likely than not be realized. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax asset and liability accounts.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with accounting standards issued by the FASB, which specifies that revenue is realized or realizable and earned when four criteria are met:
-
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
-
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
-
The sellers price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
-
Collectability of payment is reasonably assured.
The Company recognizes revenue when the goods are accepted by the customer and title has passed. The Company sells its goods via shipment from its suppliers directly to its customers. Shipping and handling costs were not significant. The Company has a 30 day return policy and customers have a general right of 30 days return on products delivered.
The Company did not provide for an allowance for return products since the Company has not experienced any sales returns.
Certain customer arrangements require evaluation of the criteria outlined in the accounting standards of reporting revenue Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of revenue and related costs or the net amount earned as agent fees. Generally, when we are primarily obligated in a transaction, revenue is recorded on a gross basis. Other factors that we consider in determining whether to recognize revenue on a gross versus net basis include our assumption of credit risk, our latitude in establishing prices, our determination of service specifications and our involvement in the provision of services. When we conclude that we are not primarily obligated as a principal, we record the net amount earned as agent fees within net sales.
Basic Income/Loss Per Common Share
The computation of income / loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. At September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company
did not have any stock equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Transactions
For the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, there are no gain and loss on foreign currency transaction as all transactions are denominated in US dollars.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
4. RECENT CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2009, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No.2009.05 regarding measuring liabilities at fair value. This ASU provides additional guidance clarifying the measurement of liabilities at fair value in circumstances
in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available; under those circumstances, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of valuation techniques, as defined. This ASU is effective
for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after the issuance of this ASU. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not expect that adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
5. DUE TO RELATED PARTIES
As of September 30, 2010, the amount due to related parties of $77,210 represented the amount due to President, Principal Accounting Officer, Secretary and director. As of March 31, 2010, the amount due to related parties of $112,210 included $77,235 due to President, Principal Accounting Officer, Secretary and director and $34,975 due to Vice President Sales and Director. The amounts due are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due on demand.
6. INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method; under which deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
At September 30, 2010, the Company had accumulated deficit during the development stage of $9,480 to offset future taxable income. The Company has established a valuation allowance equal to the full amount of this deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of the utilization of the operating losses in future periods.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, at inception. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740, the Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company has no uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2010 and 2009 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.

7. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
The Companys Articles of Incorporation authorize 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock. On December 17, 2008, the Company issued 450,000 shares of its Common Stock to the Companys sole stockholder, at $0.02 per share, for total proceeds of $9,000.
On March 28, 2010 the Company had received stock subscriptions to issue 1,750,000 shares of its common stock to 28 non-US investors at $0.02 per share. The Company completed the private placement offering for gross proceeds of $35,000 to non-US persons in reliance of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 in June 2010. The total amount of common stock subscribed at March 31, 2010 was $35,000. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement on March 28, 2010 with each investor whereby as soon as possible but in any event not later than the 120th day after March 28, 2010, the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1. Upon the failure by the Company to have the Registration Statement declared effective within 180 days from the date of the closing of our offering (September 27, 2010), the Company may be required to issue additional shares of its common stock (valued at $0.02 per share) to each Subscriber as liquidated damages. The penalty amount is equal to five percent of the subscription price paid by each subscriber for the first month starting September 27, 2010, if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by that date. The penalty amount equals an additional 87,500 total common shares that may be issued to all the investors for a one month delay and one percent of the subscription price paid in shares (valued at $0.02 per share) to each subscriber for every month thereafter. The maximum amount of liquidated damages due shall not exceed twenty five percent of the Subscription Price paid by the Subscribers (valued at $0.02 per share), which equals a potential maximum of 437,500 additional total common shares that may be issued to all subscribers.
The Company has been able to obtain a verbal commitment from all investors to waive all penalties as the Registration Statement went effective on November 2, 2010. There was no penalty accrued for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
On June 16, 2010 the Company collected all stock subscriptions receivable totaling $35,000 and issued the 1,750,000 shares that were subscribed in the offering.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations relates to the operations and financial condition reported in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included in this report. Those statements in the following discussion that are not historical in nature should be considered to be forward looking statements that are inherently uncertain. Actual results and the timing of the events may differ materially from those contained in these forward looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the Cautionary Note on Forward Looking Statements set forth elsewhere in this Report.
Overview
We are a web-based retailer of imported and domestic distinctive art reproductions, collectibles and home décor items. We sell our products through our website www.avenuesouth.com and through an informal relationship with our major customer, a home furnishing distributor in Hong Kong. We do not occupy any physical stores or outlets. We believe that the products we sell are relatively unique and will sell successfully through our website because they are not readily available at many retail outlets.
Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance
Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:
|
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 12 months. |
|
|
Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon: |
|
|
our ability to develop and continually update our website; |
|
|
our ability to procure and maintain on commercially reasonable terms relationships with third parties from whom we acquire inventory; |
|
|
our ability to identify and pursue mediums through which we will be able to market our products; |
|
|
our ability to attract new customers to our website who are interested in purchasing our products; and |
|
|
our ability to keep manage our costs and maintain low overhead. |
|
|
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will continue to be in the development stage and will be incurring expenses and not generating significant revenues. |
|
|
We are dependent upon our relationships with, Crown Trend Trading Ltd., our major customer and principal distributor at this time, to sell our product inventory. We do not have any formal relationship with them and they may in their sole discretion and without any penalty cease being our distributor at any time. If they cease the distribution of our products then our sole source of distribution will be through our website, which has not generated any significant revenue to date. |
|
|
In addition to sales of our products through our major customer and any other distributor that may sell our products in the future, our sales are dependent on our ability to attract retail customers to our website on cost-effective terms. Our strategy to attract customers to our website, which has not been formalized or implemented, includes viral marketing, the practice of generating "buzz" among Internet users in our products through the developing and maintaining weblogs or "blogs", online journals that are updated frequently and available to the public, postings on online communities such as Facebook, MySpace, Yahoo!(R) Groups and amateur websites such as YouTube.com, and other methods of getting Internet users to refer others to our website by e-mail or word of mouth; search engine optimization, marketing our website via search engines by purchasing sponsored placement in search results; and entering into affiliate marketing relationships with website providers to increase our access to Internet consumers. We expect to rely on word of mouth marketing as the primary source of traffic to our website, with search engine optimization and affiliate marketing as secondary sources. |
|
|
We acquire our product inventory from several wholesale vendors all located in the United States who will also drop-ship the inventory we purchase from them to our Hong Kong customer or to other export customers. We do not manufacture any of our own products. We have not entered into any formal supply agreements with these vendors. We are required to pay in full for product inventory purchased from these vendors upon delivery. If the prices charged by these vendors increase and we are not able to pass on the increased price to our customers, then our margins will be reduced and this will affect our potential for future profitability. |

Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 (successor).
Revenues
We generated revenues of $42,455 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and $0 during the same period in 2009. This increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010 is due to our sales to our major customer, a Hong Kong based wholesale distributor of home furnishings of $42,455. We anticipate future increases in revenue from our major customer and perhaps obtain other new distributors and consumer sales through our website but at this time, our ability to generate significant revenues continues to be uncertain and we continue to be a development stage company.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales was $36,801 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as we were able to continue to sell our merchandise to our major customer this quarter, which generated $42,455 of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
Gross Profit
Our gross profit was $5,654 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010. We expect our future gross profit margins to continue to be in the range of 13% to 17% with our major customer and 13% to 25% from other customers as we continue to seek new business from wholesale distributors of home furnishing products and other retail consumers.
Expenses
For expenses were $10,291 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,677 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase costs incurred for travel expenses, credit card fees and other general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010. We expect our general and administrative costs to increase sometime later in 2010 or 2011 if we can expand our sales in Hong Kong and other locations and increase our profits. We may also increase our general and administrative expenses if we are able to raise money through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of doing another private placement.
Net Income (Loss)
We had net loss of $4,637 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and a net loss of $1,677 during the same period in 2009. This increase in net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2010 is due to our sale to our distributor in Hong Kong and increase costs incurred for travel expenses, credit card fees and other general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Results of Operations for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 and from July 6, 2007 (successor inception) to September 30, 2010.

We generated revenues of $62,465 during the six months ended September 30, 2010 and $0 during the same period in 2009. This increase in revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2010 is due to our sales to our major customer, a Hong Kong based wholesale distributor of home furnishings of $62,465. We anticipate future increases in revenue from our major customer and perhaps obtain other new distributors and consumer sales through our website but at this time, our ability to generate significant revenues continues to be uncertain and we continue to be a development stage company.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales from our inception on July 6, 2007 to September 30, 2010 was $64,024.
Our cost of sales was $53,749 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0 for the six months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the cost of sales for the six months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase in revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2010 as we were able to continue to sell our merchandise to our major customer this quarter, which generated $62,465 of revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2010.
Gross Profit
Our gross profit from our inception on July 6, 2007 to September 30, 2010 was $12,651.
Our gross profit was $8,716 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0 for the six months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the gross profit for the six months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase in revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2010. Our gross profit margin decreased from approximately 26% for the year ended March 31, 2010 to 14% for the six months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease in gross margin is due to the renegotiation of our selling prices to our major customer in order for us to derive more sales volume from our major customer for future fiscal quarters and for the year ended March 31, 2011. We expect our future gross profit margins to continue to be in the range of 14% to 17% with our major customer and 14% to 25% from other customers as we continue to seek new business from wholesale distributors of home furnishing products and other retail consumers.
Expenses
From July 6, 2007 (inception) to September 30, 2010, our total expenses were $22,131. These total expenses since inception to September 30, 2010 were for general and administrative expenses which consisted of charges for website maintenance and credit card fees, bank charges, office maintenance, communication expenses, courier, postage, office supplies, and travel.
Our expenses were $10,406 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $2,375 for the six months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in the expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2010 was due to our increase costs incurred for travel expenses, credit card fees and other general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2010 for the expansion of our business. We expect our general and administrative costs to increase sometime later in 2010 or 2011 if we can expand our sales in Hong Kong and other locations and increase our profits. We may also increase our general and administrative expenses if we are able to raise money through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of doing another private placement.

Net Income (Loss)
We have a net loss of $9,480 during the period from our inception on July 6, 2007 to September 30, 2010.
We had net loss of $1,690 during the six months ended September 30, 2010 and a net loss of $2,375 during the same period in 2009. This decrease in net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2010 is due to our sale to our distributor in Hong Kong.
Liquidity and Capital Resources as of September 30, 2010 and 2009
As of September 30, 2010, we had cash of $124,730, total assets of $124,730 and working capital of $44,520 compared to $123,420 in cash, $123,420 in assets and working capital of $11,210 as of March 31, 2010. As of September 30, 2010 we have an accumulated deficit of $9,480.
During the six months ended September 30, 2010 we had an increase in the net cash provided by operating of $1,310. We collected $35,000 of the financing from our March 28, 2010 private placement in June 2010. In addition, we repaid loan from related parties of $35,000. From our inception on July 6, 2007 to September 30, 2010, we have raised a total net amount of $124,730 in cash through financing activities.
During the six months ended September 30, 2010 we had net loss of $1,690 provided by our operating activities compared to $2,375 of cash used by our operating activities during the same period in 2009, a decrease of $685. This is due to increase in our net income for the six months ended September 30, 2010. From our inception on July 6, 2007 to September 30, 2010, we used net cash of $16,480 from our operating activities. During the year ended March 31, 2011, our total cash requirements may exceed our cash balances. Currently, we do not have sufficient cash in our bank accounts to cover our estimated expenses for the next 12 months if we expand our future operations and our related parties do not demand repayment of their loans. These loans are non-interest bearing and due on demand. We anticipate meeting our future cash requirements through a combination of equity and debt financing.
It may take several years for us to fully realize our business plan.
We estimate that our expenses over the next 12 months (beginning October 2010) will be approximately $160,000 as described in the table below. These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our future business activities and our ability to raise capital from shareholders or other sources.
Target completion | Estimated | |||||
Description | date or period | expenses | ||||
Legal and accounting fees | 12 months | 20,000 | ||||

We intend to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months through a combination of debt financing and equity financing by way of private placements. We currently do not have any arrangements in place for the completion of any further private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any further private placement financings. There is no assurance that any financing will be available or if available, on terms that will be acceptable to us. We may not raise sufficient funds to fully carry out any business plan.
We will also incur certain legal and accounting costs associated with the public reporting obligations in conjunction with becoming a public reporting company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this Report, 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 our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.
Inflation
The effect of inflation on our revenues and operating results has not been significant.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete listing of these policies is included in Note 2 of the notes to our financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and from date of inception (July 6, 2007) to March 31, 2010 and for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance of ASC 855 Subsequent Events on the treatment of subsequent events which is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet
date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, management of a reporting entity is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that financial statements are issued and disclose the date
through which subsequent events have been evaluated, as well as the date the financial statements were issued. This new guidance was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009, and must be applied prospectively. The
adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In August 2009, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No.2009.05 regarding measuring liabilities at fair value. This ASU provides additional guidance clarifying the measurement of liabilities at fair value in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available; under those circumstances, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of valuation techniques, as defined. This ASU is effective for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after the issuance of this ASU. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not expect that adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
