(A majority owned subsidiary of JVW Entertainment, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
(1) Nature of Business
Bella Petrella’s Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") is a marketing Company, incorporated in Florida on July 28, 2009, with headquarters in Orlando, Florida. The Company sells its own line of gourmet pasta sauces and salsas. The Company is the sole owner of two subsidiaries, Bobby V's Original Westshore Pizza, LLC ("Bobby V's), incorporated in Florida, on August 27, 2008, and Philly Westshore Franchising Enterprises, Inc. ("Philly"), organized in Florida, on March 30, 2008. Bobby V's is a pizza and sandwich sports bar located in Tampa, Florida. Philly, headquartered in Tampa Florida, franchises pizza and sandwich sports bar restaurants primarily in Florida and Ohio. Bobby V's and Philly are referred to together as the "Westshore Companies". The Company’s principal assets are the pasta sauce recipes developed by one of its founders, the pizza and sandwich sports bar's reputation, customer base, inventory and equipment, and franchise contracts and related receivables.
(2) Basis of Presentation and Going Concern
While the information presented in the accompanying interim condensed financial statements is unaudited, it includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as used in the May 31, 2011 audited financial statements of the Company. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Interim financial statements and the notes thereto do not contain all of the disclosures normally found in year-end audited financial statements, and these notes to Interim Condensed Financial Statements are abbreviated and contain only certain disclosures related to the three months period ended November 30, 2011. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s year-end audited May 31, 2011 financial statements. Operating results for the three month period ended November 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending May 31, 2012.
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying value of its assets and to meet its liabilities as they become due.
The Company has incurred net losses during the three months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010 of $916,003 and $324,556, respectively. To continue as a going concern, the Company plans to raise funds through private placements and public stock offerings. These funds will be used for marketing and payment of general and administrative expenses. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
(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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenues and expenses during the period. Management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates that are critical to the accompanying financial statements include estimates related to classification of expenditures as either an asset or expense, valuation of deferred tax assets, and the likelihood of loss contingencies. Management bases its estimates and judgments on experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and assumptions are revised periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period it is determined to be necessary. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

(3) Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" (SAB 101) and FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue for the pasta sauces and salsas operation, when rights and risk of ownership have passed to the customer, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product has been shipped or delivered to the customer, the price and terms are finalized, and collections of resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Pasta sauces and salsa products are primarily shipped FOB shipping point at which time title passes to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue for the pizza and sports bar operation at the point of sale. The Company recognizes revenue for the franchising operation ratably each month, over the term of the underlying franchise agreements.
Share-Based Compensation
U.S. GAAP requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant. The expense is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award.
The Company accounts for common stock warrants granted based on the fair market value of the instrument using the Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing certain weighted average assumptions such as expected stock price volatility, term of the common stock warrants, risk-free interest rates, and expected dividend yield at the grant date. Expected stock price volatility is based on a calculated value which was determined through the weighted average stock price volatilities of appropriate peer companies. The expected term of the common stock warrants granted is equal to the estimated life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the common stock warrants. The Company does not expect to pay any dividends.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.
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 effects of changes in tax laws and rates.

(3) Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Income Taxes (continued)
Certain guidance located within Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, "Income Taxes" (“ASC Topic 740”), clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. ASC Topic 740 provides guidance on the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on the recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition. The Company had no uncertain tax positions for the three months ended November 30, 2011 or three months ended November 30, 2010.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding and excludes any potential dilution from stock options, warrants and other common stock equivalents; this metric is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (i.e., options and warrants) were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. For the periods ended November 30, 2011 and May 31, 2011, common stock equivalents consisting of 1,000,000 outstanding warrants were not considered in the calculation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for diluted EPS, as they would be anti-dilutive, thereby decreasing the net loss per common share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that recent codified pronouncements by the FASB will have a material impact on the Company’s current or future financial statements.
(4) Equity Transactions
On October 13, 2011, the Company issued 500,000 shares of restricted common stock to the owner of Bobby V’s and Philly for a three month extension of the maturity date of the promissory notes issued to close the transactions described previously in this disclosure. All three promissory notes were extended in unison in exchange for the stock issued. With this extension, the maturity date of the promissory notes was extended to December 31, 2011. The stock was valued at $.32 per share for a total of $160,000 which is reflected in the financial statements as $106,720 of interest expense, and $53,280 of prepaid assets.

(4) Equity Transactions (continued)
On September 2, 2011, the Company issued 350,000 shares of restricted common stock to the owner of Bobby V’s and Philly as inducement to close the transactions described previously in this disclosure by acceptance of promissory notes in lieu of cash at closing. The stock was valued at $.32 per share for a total of $112,000 which is reflected in the financial statements as interest expense.
On October 24, 2011, the Company issued 337,400 shares of restricted common stock to various individuals as reimbursement of expenses. The stock was valued at $.22 per share for a total of $73,388 which is reflected in the financial statements as selling, general and administrative expenses.
(5) Concentrations
The Company does a significant amount of its total pasta sauces and salsas business with one customer. This customer comprises 3% and 98% of total revenues for the Company’s products for the three month periods ended November 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively.
The Company outsources its pasta sauces and salsas product manufacturing to one manufacturer. However, the Company believes other manufacturing options are available.

(6) Contingencies and Commitments
In connection with the stock purchase by JVW Entertainment, Inc., the Company has entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with Joseph M. Petrella, Jr., one of the Company’s founders. The Consulting Services Agreement is for a period of five (5) years with cash payments made every two weeks totaling $75,000 per year. The agreement also calls for common stock purchase warrants to be issued in the total amount of 1,000,000 shares, exercisable for four years beginning one year after the date of the consulting agreement. The exercise amounts and prices are as follows:
200,000 shares at $0.50/share
|
200,000 shares at $2.00/share
|
200,000 shares at $0.75/share
|
200,000 shares at $3.00/share
|
200,000 shares at $1.00/share
|
Mr. Petrella, Jr., also entered into an Agreement Not To Compete with the Company. No value was assigned to the non-compete agreement due to disincentives to break the non-compete, such as the Consulting Services Agreement and Mr. Petrella, Jr.'s continuing ownership interest in the Company.
(7) Related Party Transactions
In connection with a Consulting Services Agreement with Mr. Petrella, Jr., the Company has recorded a liability in the amount of $127,674 and $90,174, as of November 30, 2011 and May 31, 2011, which is included in accounts payable in the accompanying balance sheets.
During the three months ended November 30, 2011 and the three months ended November 30, 2010, the Company incurred $2,627, and $9,052, respectively, in commissions to Mr. Petrella, Jr.. These commissions are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. The commissions paid and accrued and common stock issued to Mr. Petrella, Jr., during the periods were considered reasonable compensation for his selling and administrative services during the period.
During the three months ended November 30, 2011, JVW Entertainment. Inc. paid approximately $3,000 in Company expenses which were recorded as additional paid in capital.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We were an early revenue stage company, engaged in the sale of pasta sauces and salsas, until we acquired two additional established businesses as our wholly owned subsidiaries during the current quarter, a pizza and sandwich sports bar, and a franchisor of pizza and sandwich sports bars.
Since our inception on July 28, 2009 through November 30, 2011 we have generated revenues of $863,033 and incurred a net loss of $2,020,697. We believe that our pasta sauces and salsas business is synergistic with the subsidiary operations we acquired, and thus, these acquisitions will lead to improvements in overall operating results. We also believe that our marketing plan for our pasta sauce products, focusing on institutional sales, will build sales volume over the next twelve months due to the reduced acid content of our sauces and salsas, as compared to other brands of tomato based sauces, providing protection from heartburn and acid reflux, as well as our all natural ingredients and homemade flavor. Management believes that increased sales volume is directly proportional to increased purchasing volume, from which we should experience economies of scale to lower our cost of ingredients, packaging, and other direct cost. We believe that lower direct cost, coupled with increased sales volume, should equate to profitability. You have no assurance that our beliefs or expectations will be achieved or that cash flows from our business will be adequate to achieve profitability or to maintain operations.
The operating activity in the period ended November 30, 2011includes revenues and expenses of our subsidiary operations acquired September 2, 2011. The operating activity during the period ended November 30, 2010, was limited to our pasta sauce and salsa business organizational expenses, and revenues and expenses related sales primarily made to Ferraro Foods and Lisanti Foods, institutional food distributors to Famous Famiglias Pizzerias.
The following table presents the change in operating losses over the periods presented:

$ | 916,003 | $ | 333,253 | $ | 582,750 | 175% |
A portion of our operating loss incurred during the period ended November 30, 2011, is attributable to consulting fees related to the acquisition of our subsidiaries ($170,000), were for incentive payments to the sellers of the businesses we acquired ($302,000), and promissory note maturity date extensions ($160,720). These expenses were paid by the issuance of common stock, and common stock warrants. We experienced non-cash expenses in the period ended November 30, 2010 of $431,912. We have experienced several periods of capital formation and operating losses which management believes are normal for a new business.

|

|
|||||||||||
$ | 643,586 | $ | 32,386 | $ | 611,200 | 1887% |
During the period ended November 30, 2011, our sales include the results of newly acquired subsidiary operations. During the period ended November 30, 2010, our sales were primarily to Ferraro Foods and Lisanti, institutional food distributors to Famous Famiglias Pizzerias.
We expect our sales to increase by approximately $3,000,000 or 2,393% for fiscal year ending May 31, 2012 as we expand our marketing efforts for institutional sales of our sauces and salsas, subject to funding, and as a result of our purchase on September 2, 1011of our pizza and sports bar restaurant, which had unaudited gross revenues of approximately $1,519,000 in its 2010 year; and of our restaurant franchising business, which had audited gross revenues of approximately $731,000 in its 2010 fiscal year. Planned expansion of the franchise operations is expected to grow by twenty-two stores over the next ten-years. On September 25, 2011, we entered into a territory agreement was entered into which requires the territory owner to open ten stores in Georgia over the next ten-years. We plan to realign operations of our franchise stores in Florida to optimize revenues. We are engaged in negotiations for potential territory franchise agreements in Texas, California and Nevada.

$ | 1,355,702 | $ | 333,253 | $ | 1,022,449 | 307% |
The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the addition of operating expenses of newly acquired subsidiary operations, and costs incurred to acquire the subsidiaries.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of November 30, 2011, our cash balance was $10,168. The Statements of Cash Flows provide information about our net cash flow for the financial statement periods presented in this quarterly report. To date, we have financed our operations through the issuance of stock and contributions to capital by JVW Entertainment, Inc.
We expect our liquidity to improve during the 2012 fiscal year based on our recent acquisitions and funding for continuing operations we believe may be available based on our projected revenue growth.
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Our liquidity to date has been limited to proceeds from the sale of our products and contributions to our capital by JVW Entertainment, Inc. You have no assurance as to how much or for how long JVW Entertainment, Inc. will have the financial ability to continue funding our working capital needs. We do not have a binding agreement that requires JVW Entertainment, Inc. to make further contributions of capital or provide any other form of funding. We believe cash flow generated from the sale of our products will be sufficient to sustain current operations; but, product sales alone will not generate sufficient profits to implement our plan of operations. To fully implement our plan of operations, we expect to require $10,000,000 over the next thirty-six months. In the event we require additional capital to fund operations and growth, we may need to sell securities in private placements or obtain debt funding. You have no assurance we will be able to make private sales of our securities or obtain debt funding, if we should have a need so to do.

(1) Extension granted, in consideration of 500,000 shares of common stock for extension of all notes.
(2) Extension granted in consideration of 1,000,000 shares of common stock for extension of all notes.
We are currently in talks with several equity participants to secure the $4.5 million we need to pay the notes we have issued to purchase our subsidiaries and to close the purchase of the real estate on which our Tampa restaurant is located. You have no assurance we will be successful in our efforts to obtain the needed equity financing. Our note holders had the right to extend the due dates on the notes and have granted both extensions, one before November 30, 2011, and one after that date. If we are unable to pay the notes by the extended due dates and the note holders do not grant a further extension, we would lose ownership of our subsidiaries.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenues and expenses during the period. Management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates that are critical to the accompanying financial statements include estimates related to classification of expenditures as either an asset or expense, and the likelihood of loss contingencies. Management bases its estimates and judgments on experience, which is limited at this time, and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management revises estimates and assumptions periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period during which it is determined to be necessary. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
307 – Disclosure controls and procedures: As of November 30, 3011 and May 31, 2011, our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined in Exchange Act Rule 15d–15(e) as “controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.” Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of November 30, 3011 and May 31, 2011, we did not have effective disclosure controls and procedures.
The primary reason for our management’s conclusions is that we did not have a plan in place for implementing controls and procedures nor did we have sufficient personnel to implement checks and balances. We believe that we will have sufficient funds available to develop a plan in the foreseeable future. We do anticipate that our business will need sufficient personnel in the foreseeable future that are needed to implement checks and balances.
308(b) – Changes in internal control over financial reporting: Based upon an evaluation by our management of our internal control over financial reporting, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, there were no changes made in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended November 30, 3011 and May 31, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect this control.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Control: Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures, if any, or our internal controls over financial reporting, if any, will necessarily prevent all fraud and material errors. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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 on all internal control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, 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, and/or by management override of the control. The design of any system of internal control is also based in part upon certain assumptions about risks and the likelihood of future events, and there is no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in circumstances and the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective internal control system, financial reporting misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected on a timely basis.
