Notes to Financial Statements
January 31, 2010 and April 30, 2009
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at January 31, 2010, and for all periods presented herein,
have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's April 30, 2009 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet
Established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate
capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However
management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary
if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and
removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should
be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them
to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 167. (See FAS 167 effective date below.)
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-16, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 166. (See FAS 166 effective date below)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-15, Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standard Codification for EITF 09-1. (See EITF 09-1 effective date below.)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-14, Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements. This update changed the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements
entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. This update addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will
be separated in more circumstances that under existing US GAAP. This amendment has eliminated that residual method of allocation. Effective prospectively for revenue
arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In September 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update provides amendments to Topic 820 for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate
net asset value per share (or its equivalent). It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted in financial statements for earlier interim and annual periods that have not been issued. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-12 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In July 2009, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) issued EITF No. 09-1, (ASC Topic 470) "Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance" ("EITF 09-1"). The provisions of EITF 09-1, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of share-lending arrangements
that are classified as equity in the financial statements of the share lender. An example of a share-lending arrangement is an agreement between the Company (share lender) and an investment bank (share borrower) which allows the investment bank to use the loaned shares to enter into equity derivative contracts with investors. EITF 09-1 is effective for fiscal years that beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and requires retrospective application for all arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2009.
Share-lending arrangements that have been terminated as a result of counterparty default prior to December 15, 2009, but for which the entity has not reached a final settlement as of December 15, 2009 are within the scope. Effective for share-lending arrangements entered into on or after the beginning of the first reporting period that
begins on or after June 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of EITF 09-1 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,”
“will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to
differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties
should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Company Overview and Plan of Operation
We were incorporated as Hotel Management Systems, Inc. on April 15, 2008 in the State of Nevada for the purpose of developing, perfecting, and marketing a proprietary hotel management software known as “Hotel Management Tool.”
The “Hotel Management Tool” software offers hotel operators a single software platform which integrates all major aspects of the day-to-day management of their enterprise. Although the HMT is fully customizable and able to incorporate additional modules, our standard version will feature three basic modules that deal
with those hotel operating functions which can be most easily improved by the use of our software platform: Product and Supplies Management, Employee Data, and Employment Counseling and Reporting.
Product and Supplies Management
This module of the HMT software will allow hotel management to track and manage its inventory of supplies and in-room products like shampoo, soap, and similar items. All of the supplies and in-room products commonly used by the hotel can be input into a database which will contain
any necessary item or catalog numbers for each individual product. The hotel’s management will also input unit cost and a desired minimum and maximum quantity of hand for each product. On a daily or other periodic basis, the hotel’s employees will then record inventory through the use of a count worksheet. The hotel’s quantity on hand is then updated in a separate screen. As the minimum quantity on hand is approached, the HMT will know which products
to re-order and in what quantity to order them and will produce the appropriate product order.
Employee Data Management
This module of the HMT software will allow for easy maintenance of a complete and user-friendly employee database. Through a series of screens, the employee’s personal information, contact and emergency information, and work-related information can be easily input and maintained
by management.
Employment Counseling and Reporting
The third standard module to be included in the HMT software will allow hotel management to accurately record and track employee disciplinary incidents and any related counseling sessions with employees through a user-friendly data screen. In the event that an employee must be terminated, a
full record and evaluation of the employee’s attendance, cooperation, initiative, job knowledge, and over work quality can be easily input by management. The HMT will then generate a written report that can be given to the employee. The employee will sign a receipt of the report, which can be stored in the hotel’s permanent records.
Additional Standard Features
Together with the standard set of functions summarized above, the HMT offers some important standard features:
· |
Self-updating: The HMT automatically checks for newer versions of the software, available upgrades, and software updates. The software is updated automatically on a continuous basis, ensuring maximum performance and user satisfaction. |
· |
Tiered Security: The HMT features a tiered security system with a separate login and set of security credentials for each employee of the hotel who will be using the program. Management can easily structure these security credentials to allow different levels and types of access
to the HMT’s different functions depending upon the level of each employee’s security credentials. |
· |
Fully Scalable: The HMT is fully scalable, which means that its capacity can grow and expand with the customer’s business. The software can easily add additional capacity and new features and can accommodate more robust database systems as the customer’s business
operations become larger and more complex. |
Customization and Additional Modules Available
In addition to the 3 standard modules described above, the HMT can easily accommodate additional segments dealing with different aspects of the hotel and motel business. The core of the program is designed to operate as hub, with different sets of functions that can be added or subtracted
to the core system like spokes on a wheel. Nearly every operating hotel already uses some type of reservation software and some type of employee timekeeping software. Once they have begun using our standard product, however, many customers may desire a more total and cost-effective integration of their operations. Additional modules that are ready to add-on to the HMT at the customer’s request include the following:
· |
Room inventory and reservations system |
· |
Employee scheduling |
· |
Employee timekeeping and payroll |
· |
Online product ordering from key suppliers |
Pricing and Revenue Model
Our intended pricing structure will feature a base purchase price for the standard version of the HMT software, with an extra charge for each additional module requested by the customer. We will also charge a small monthly license fee for all maintenance and updates of the software and for storage of the customer’s data:
Standard version: |
$1,500 |
Each additional module: |
$500-$1,000 depending on specifications |
Monthly fee |
|
Including data storage: |
$20 per month per site |
Monthly fee if |
|
Customer stores own data: |
$8 per month per site |
The customer’s ongoing contract for maintenance, updates, and data storage will be renewable annually at the option of the customer. Larger customers will substantial data storage needs or complex customizations may be charged higher fees. We believe this pricing model will position us well to compete for the business
of smaller hotel and motel operators (i.e.: those with ten or fewer sites) who may be looking for a flexible and effective management software solution at lower price than that typically charged by larger competitors in the field.
Competition
The field of hotel management software is flooded with an array of options which focus primarily on room reservations and room inventory management. We will face several larger and more established competitors. In addition, many larger hotel and motel chains use proprietary systems built-for-hire to suit their particular
operations. We intend to focus our efforts on small independent hotels, motels, inns, and bed-and-breakfast properties. We believe or HMT software will be well-positioned to compete for the business of these operators because of the following advantages:
· |
Our software is fully scalable. A hotel or motel owner can purchase a basic product for relatively low cost that will be able to grow with the enterprise if and when it expands. |
· |
Our software is able to integrate all functions of the enterprise, not just reservations and room inventory management. We believe this all-in-one capability will appeal to smaller customers with limited staff and resources for managing and integrating different functions of the enterprise by hand or through the use of multiple software products. |
· |
We are a small company that will be focused on responsive and timely customer service. |
Plan of Operations
The HMT software has been in development for over a year and has been extensively used and tested at a medium-sized motel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Following exposure of the product to the challenges of real-world use in an active environment, we made certain changes and improvements and development of the product is essentially complete
at this time.
Our initial marketing plan is to launch a direct mail-based marketing campaign focused on independent hotel and motel operators with small to medium-sized properties and fewer than 10 locations, as well as bed-and-breakfast inns and similar small independent operations. Our planned mailer will feature a complete graphical description of the
HMT software as well as a demonstration CD that will show the potential customer how the software will function. The planned mailer will be followed-up with a phone call and on-site demonstrations for those customers who are interested. We have been conducting market research and building a database of properties to target with our mailer. Although we had originally planned to launch our direct mail campaign in the third quarter of our current fiscal year, continued outside demands
on the time of our sole officer and director, John Baumbauer, have cause us to delay our plans. Our current hope is that we may begin our marketing campaign sometime in the first half of 2010.
As we pursue our planned operations, our sole officer and director, John Baumbauer, will provide his time to the business at no charge. Mr. Baumbauer will be responsible for all administrative duties as well as overseeing the final development and perfection of the HMT software, developing our sales and marketing information material, researching
potential customers, and performing on-site product demonstrations and follow-up customer relations. As we have limited financial resources, Mr. Baumbauer can only dedicate a portion of his time to attending the needs of the business.
To the extent that Mr. Baumbauer’s outside professional duties not related to the company continue to make extraordinary demands on his time, our pace of operational development may continue to be adversely affected.
We do not have plans to purchase any significant equipment or change the number of our employees during the next twelve months.
We have no employees other than our president and CEO, Mr. Baumbauer.

We did not earn any revenues from inception on April 15, 2008 through the period ending January 31, 2010. We are presently in the development stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will produce significant revenues or, if revenues are earned, that we will be profitable.
We incurred operating expenses and net losses in the amount of $29,121 during the three months ended January 31, 2010, compared to operating expenses and net losses in the amount of $229 during the three months ended January 31, 2009. We incurred operating expenses and net losses in the amount of $52,163 during the nine months ended
January 31, 2010, compared to operating expenses and net losses in the amount of $5,918 during the nine months ended January 31, 2009. We have incurred total operating expenses and net losses of $94,937 from our inception on April 15, 2008 through the period ending January 31, 2010. Our operating expenses from inception through January 31, 2010 consisted of general and administrative expenses. Our losses are attributable to our operating expenses combined with a lack of any revenues during
our current stage of development. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we continue with our plan of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of January 31, 2010, we had cash of $10,567 and a working capital deficit of $68,708. Our cash on hand should allow us to cover our anticipated expenses for the remainder of the current fiscal year, but may not be sufficient to fund operations beyond the current fiscal year and will not be sufficient to pay any significant unanticipated
expenses. We currently do not have any operations and we have no income. We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations for any significant period of time beyond the end of the current fiscal year. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required.
We have not attained profitable operations and may be dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our long-term business plan. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of January 31, 2010, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Going Concern
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. We have a working capital deficit of $68,708 as of January 31, 2010 and have accumulated a deficit of $94,937 since inception. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary
financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Management plans to continue to provide for our capital needs by the issuance of common stock and related party advances.
Critical Accounting Policies
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s
most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There are no critical accounting policies for the company as this time.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes
the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied
retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them
to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 167. (See FAS 167 effective date below.)
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-16, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 166. (See FAS 166 effective date below)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-15, Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standard Codification for EITF 09-1. (See EITF 09-1 effective date below.)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-14, Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements. This update changed the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered
into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. This update addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will be
separated in more circumstances that under existing US GAAP. This amendment has eliminated that residual method of allocation. Effective prospectively for revenue
arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In September 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update provides amendments to Topic 820 for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate
net asset value per share (or its equivalent). It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted in financial statements for earlier interim and annual periods that have not been issued. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-12 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In July 2009, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) issued EITF No. 09-1, (ASC Topic 470) "Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance" ("EITF 09-1"). The provisions of EITF 09-1, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of share-lending arrangements
that are classified as equity in the financial statements of the share lender. An example of a share-lending arrangement is an agreement between the Company (share lender) and an investment bank (share borrower) which allows the investment bank to use the loaned shares to enter into equity derivative contracts with investors. EITF 09-1 is effective for fiscal years that beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and requires retrospective application for all arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2009.
Share-lending arrangements that have been terminated as a result of counterparty default prior to December 15, 2009, but for which the entity has not reached a final settlement as of December 15, 2009 are within the scope. Effective for share-lending arrangements entered into on or after the beginning of the first reporting period that begins
on or after June 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of EITF 09-1 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of January 31, 2010. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial
Officer, Mr. John Baumbauer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of January 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 31, 2010.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures
include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving
its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
