DIGIPATH, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION

 Organization and Business — DigiPath, Inc. (“DigiPath®,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was incorporated in Nevada on October 5, 2010. During January, 2011, the Company no longer was considered a development stage company as it began recognizing revenue for its advisory services to a handful of healthcare clients.

DigiPath, Inc. provides the next generation of affordable, innovative, and reliable digital pathology solutions and advisory services for clients involved within healthcare. Services range the full breadth of management operations for marketing, product development, sales, outreach, operations, customer service, regulatory, and financial. Clients include Manufacturer (hardware and software), Distribution & Service Firms, Laboratories (reference, hospital owned, independent), Private Pathology Practices (associated with hospitals), and Centers of Excellence.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern — The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. For the period October 5, 2010 to June 30, 2011, the Company had a net loss of $9,154. At June 30, 2011, the Company had working capital of $20,705 and stockholders’ equity of $25,521. Since inception, the Company has also been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its operations. The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties. It may be necessary for the Company to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future or have terms agreeable to the Company. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been presented on the basis of the continuation of the Company as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for accruals for potential liabilities.

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. 

ASC 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.

-7-
 

The Company performed a review of its material tax positions. During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2011, there were no increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken during the fiscal quarter, there were no decreases in unrecognized tax benefits relating to settlements with taxing authorities, and there were no reductions to unrecognized tax benefits as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date.

The Company has elected to classify any interest or penalties recognized with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits as income taxes. During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company did not recognize any amounts for interest or penalties with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits. As of June 30, 2011, no amounts for interest or penalties with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits have been accrued.

Cash - Cash includes all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less as of June 30, 2011.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.

The Company had no such assets or liabilities recorded to be valued on the basis above at June 30, 2011.

Revenue Recognition –The Company will recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, Overall, SEC Materials (ASC 605). ASC 605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

Net Loss Per Share - Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. The Company currently has no dilutive securities and as such, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for all periods presented.

Comprehensive Loss - Comprehensive loss is defined as all changes in stockholders' equity, exclusive of transactions with owners, such as capital investments. Comprehensive loss includes net loss, changes in certain assets and liabilities that are reported directly in equity such as translation adjustments on investments in foreign subsidiaries and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company's comprehensive loss was the same as its net loss.

Stock Compensation for Services Rendered - The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and ASC 505-50, Equity, Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees (ASC 505-50). All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty's performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-29, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosures of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” (ASU 2010-29), which specifies that pro forma disclosures for business combinations are to be reported as if the business combinations that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. The pro forma disclosures must also include a description of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. ASU 2010-29 is effective for business combinations with an acquisition date of January 1, 2011 or later. Adoption of the new requirement did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”. The amendments result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), and do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. In this update, FASB eliminated the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within these years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Business History and Background

 

DigiPath, a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on October 5, 2010 in Nevada.

During January, 2011, the Company no longer was considered a development stage company as it began recognizing revenue for its advisory services to a handful of healthcare clients.

On February 14, 2011, we entered into a Revolving Promissory Note (the “Revolving Note”) with NYX Capital Advisors, Inc. (“NYX”). Eric Stoppenhagen, our CEO, has voting and investment control over the securities owned by NYX Capital Advisors, Inc. as he is the sole owner.   Under the terms of the Revolving Note, NYX agreed to advance to the Company, from time to time and at the request of the Company, amounts up to an aggregate of $500,000 until September 30, 2012.  All advances shall be paid on or before September 30, 2012 and interest shall accrue from the date of any advances on any principal amount withdrawn, and on accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, compounded annually. The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Note will accelerate upon a bankruptcy event of the Company, any default by the Company of its payment obligations under the Revolving Note or the breach by the Company of any provision of any material agreement between the Company and the noteholder. As of the date of the Revolving Note, $200,000 was deemed outstanding under the Revolving Note.

 

On March 23, 2011, the Company completed a private placement offering to certain investors (“Investors”) pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 286,750 shares of the Company’s common stock resulting in gross proceeds of $28,675 to the Company. The Company intends to use proceeds of the offering for working capital. The Company has no material relationship with any of the investors participating in the private placement offering other than in respect of the investment. The Company paid no commissions in connection with the closing of the private placement offering.

The Company has a long term desire to become a publicly reporting company in order to have greater access to capital, increase the Company’s valuation, and to provide future liquidity to its current and future shareholders.

For the period October 5, 2010 to June 30, 2011, the Company had a net loss of $9,154. For the period October 5, 2010 to June 30, 2011, the Company incurred $62,754 of operating expenses, comprised which comprised of mainly of travel expenses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had assets equal to $260,507, comprising of cash, accounts receivable and fixed assets. The Company's current liabilities as of June 30, 2011 were $234,986 comprising of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable.

 

The following is a summary of the Company's cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the period October 5, 2010 to June 30, 2011:

 

For the period October 5, 2010 to June 30,

 

    2011  
Operating Activities   $ 13,511  
Investing Activities     (5,025)  
Financing Activities     228,675  
Net Effect on Cash   $ 237,161  

 

To the extent the Company does not earn revenues and keeps continues to incur expenses, the Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan of. In addition, the Company would be dependent upon certain related parties to provide continued funding and capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations. Our financial statements indicate that without additional capital, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Going Concern

 

We currently have no source of operating revenue, and have only limited working capital with which to pursue our business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company. The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties. It may be necessary for us to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 include a "going concern" footnote.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company's critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company's financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions. We have identified in Note 2 - "Summary of Accounting Policies" to the Condensed Financial Statements contained in this Quarterly Report certain critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-29, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosures of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” (ASU 2010-29), which specifies that pro forma disclosures for business combinations are to be reported as if the business combinations that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. The pro forma disclosures must also include a description of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. ASU 2010-29 is effective for business combinations with an acquisition date of January 1, 2011 or later. Adoption of the new requirement did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”. The amendments result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), and do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices. The amendments in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. In this update, FASB eliminated the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within these years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption of the new requirement is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any 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 and would be considered material to investors.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.

Risk Factors

 

The following important factors, and the important factors described elsewhere in this report or in our other filings with the SEC, could affect (and in some cases have affected) our results and could cause our results to be materially different from estimates or expectations. Other risks and uncertainties may also affect our results or operations adversely. The following and these other risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, results or financial condition.

An investment in the Company is highly speculative in nature and involves an extremely high degree of risk.

 

Investors may lose all of their investment in us.

 

Investment in us involves a high degree of risk. Investors may never recoup all or part of or realized any return on their investment. Accordingly, investors may lose all of their investment and must be prepared to do so.

 

We will continue to incur the expenses of complying with public company reporting requirements.

 

We have an obligation to continue to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of the Exchange Act even though compliance with such reporting requirements is economically burdensome.

 

We may need additional financing the failure of to raise such financing will have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Our cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned depending on numerous factors, including our ability to obtain the Digital Pathology consulting, finding customers to use such technology and competition. If are not able to attract and retain customers, we may not have sufficient funds to institute our business plan. We therefore would need to raise additional funds to finance our capital requirements through new financings to achieve the level of operations we anticipate. Such financings could include equity financing, which may be dilutive to stockholders, or debt financing, which would likely restrict our ability to borrow from other sources. In addition, such securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our current stockholders. We do not have any commitments for additional financing. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms attractive to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail our development of the Digital Pathology consulting and/or otherwise materially reduce our operations. Any inability to raise adequate funds could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.

 

Our success will, to a large extent, depend on and experience of our officers and directors.

 

Our officers and directors will be responsible for the management and control of the Company. Our success will, to a large extent, depend on the quality of the management provided by Eric Stoppenhagen, our CEO. Although our officers and directors believe that they have the ability to manage the Company, they can give no assurance that their efforts will result in success. Stockholders have no right or power to take part in the management of the Company. Accordingly, no person should purchase any of the Shares offered hereby unless he is willing to entrust all aspects of the management of the Company to the officers and directors.

 

If we borrow money to expand our business, we will face the risks of leverage.

 

We anticipate that we may in the future incur debt for financing our growth. Our ability to borrow funds will depend upon a number of factors, including the condition of the financial markets. The risk of loss in such circumstances is increased because we would be obligated to meet fixed payment obligations on specified dates regardless of our revenue. If we do not meet our debt service payments when due, we may sustain the loss of our equity investment in any of our assets securing such debt upon the foreclosure on such debt by a secured lender.

 

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” any investment in our shares is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability.

 

We currently are not on an exchange. We plan to list on the OTC Bulletin Board. To the extent we are successful, our common stock is considered a “penny stock” because it is quoted and traded on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and it trades for less than $5.00 per share. The OTCBB is generally regarded as a less efficient trading market than the NASDAQ Capital or Global Markets or the New York Stock Exchange.

 

-14-
 

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and any salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock.

 

Since our common stock will be subject to the regulations applicable to penny stocks, the market liquidity for our common stock could be adversely affected because the regulations on penny stocks could limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and thus your ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market in the future.

 

We have additional securities available for issuance, including preferred stock, which if issued could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The common stock and preferred stock can be issued by our board of directors without stockholder approval. Accordingly, our stockholders will be dependent upon the judgment of our management in connection with the future issuance and sale of shares of our common and preferred stock, in the event that buyers can be found therefor. Any future issuances of common stock would further dilute the percentage ownership of our Company held by the public stockholders.

 

Authorization of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock can adversely affect the voting power and other rights of common stock owners.

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of its authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

 

Indemnification of officers and directors.

 

The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company contain broad indemnification and liability limiting provisions regarding our officers, directors and employees, including the limitation of liability for certain violations of fiduciary duties. Stockholders of the Company therefore will have only limited recourse against the individuals. 

 

Risks Related to the Industry and Our Operations

 

Our business venture into the digital pathology business is subject to a high risk of failure.

 

Our business venture into the Digital Pathology consulting is at a very early stage and is subject to a high risk of failure. In order to establish commercial viability, we will have to acquire a large customer base. There can be no assurances that we will be able to do so.

 

We are uncertain of our ability to protect our trade secrets the loss of which would negatively impact our competitive advantage.

 

We rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuing knowledge to achieve and thereafter maintain a competitive advantage with respect to the Digital Pathology consulting. Although we have entered into and we intend to enter into confidentiality and invention agreements with employees, consultants, certain potential customers and advisors, no assurance can be given that such agreements will be honored or that we will be able to effectively protect our rights to our unpatented trade secrets and know-how. Moreover, no assurance can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.

 

-15-
 

 

Our failure to develop our limited marketing capabilities would have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

We have limited marketing capabilities and resources to expend on marketing the Digital Pathology consulting. In order to achieve market penetration we will have to undertake significant efforts and expenditures to create awareness of, and demand for, our Digital Pathology consulting and products. Our ability to penetrate the market and build our customer base will be substantially dependent on our marketing efforts, including our ability to encourage customers to adopt Digital Pathology. No assurance can be given that we will succeed. Our failure to successfully develop our marketing capabilities, both internally and through third-party joint ventures, would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

We are dependent on key personnel, the loss of whose services could materially adversely impact our business and prospects.

 

Our success in the Digital Pathology consulting business will be largely dependent upon the efforts of the principals who are developing the Digital Pathology consulting business and the employees hired by us to assist such principals in developing such customer base. The loss of the services of any of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on our digital pathology consulting business and prospects. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such individuals in the future. Our success will be dependent upon our ability to hire and retain qualified technical, research, management, marketing and financial personnel. We will compete with other companies with greater financial and other resources for such personnel. Although we have not to date experienced difficulty in attracting qualified personnel, there can be no assurance that it will be able to retain the personnel it hires or acquire additional qualified personnel as and when needed.

 

Control by key stockholders limits investors’ ability to participate in our management.

 

Our largest stockholder, Eric Stoppenhagen, represents approximately 92% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. If the Company sells additional shares will still have only limited rights to participate in our management.

 

Our business plan will take a significant amount of time to implement.

 

The research and development related to the Digital Pathology consulting and our business plan will take a significant amount of time to implement. Investors must be prepared to hold the Shares as a long term investment as the value of the Shares will not increase in value in the short term, if ever.

 

Absence of cash dividends may affect the investment value of our common stock.

 

The Board of Directors has not and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on the common stock of the Company for the foreseeable future and intends to retain any future earnings to finance the growth of the Company’s business. Payment of dividends, if any, will depend, among other factors, on earnings, capital requirements and the general operating and financial conditions of the Company, as well as legal limitations on the payment of dividends out of paid-in capital.

Item 3                      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item

 

Item 4T                      Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  The term "disclosure controls and procedures", as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 30, 2011, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to a reasonable assurance level of achieving such objectives.  However, it should be noted that the design of any system of controls 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, regardless of how remote.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:  Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  The internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management's review and approval of all transactions.  Our internal control over financial reporting also includes those policies and procedures that:

    1. pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
    2. provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and
    3. provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of June 30, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:  There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ending June 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
