NOTE
1 – BACKGROUND, ORGANIZATION, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of
Presentation
The
unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Item 8-03 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all footnote disclosures
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended April
30, 2010 included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 13,
2010. The accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments,
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of
our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The results for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.
Organization
The
Company was initially incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 19, 2005, as
Inkie Entertainment Group, Inc., for the purpose of engaging in the production,
distribution and marketing of filmed entertainment products. On
January 15, 2008, the Company changed its name to Quantum Information, Inc. In
January 2009, the Company announced that it would transition out of the filmed
entertainment products business and into the coal business.
As part
of that transition, on January 14, 2009, the Company sold all of its assets to
Joel Klandrud, the Company’s former officer and director, in exchange for the
surrender to the Company by Mr. Klandrud of 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock, and the assumption by Mr. Klandrud of all of the Company’s
liabilities. The Company also changed its name to MGMT Energy, Inc.
on February 5, 2009 and to Management Energy, Inc. on May 28, 2009 to better
reflect the Company’s business focus. See Note 7 – Discontinued
Operations for further discussion.
On April
13, 2009, the Company entered into a Contribution and Assignment Agreement (the
“Contribution Agreement”) with Carbon County Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“CCH”), John P. Baugues, Jr., the Company’s former Chief
Executive Officer and director, The John Paul Baugues, Sr. Family Trust, the
beneficiaries of which are John P. Baugues, Jr. and his children (the
“Baugues Trust”), and Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of the Company’s board
of directors. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, CCH agreed to
contribute and assign to the Company all of CCH’s rights and obligations under
that certain Mining Lease, dated on or around January 16, 2009 (the “Bolzer
Lease”), between CCH, on the one hand, and Edith L. Bolzer and Richard L.
Bolzer, as lessors, on the other hand, for the purpose of mining and removing
coal from approximately 6,254 acres located in the vicinity of Bridger in Carbon
County, Montana (the “Bolzer Property”). In exchange for the
contribution and assignment of the Bolzer Lease, the Company agreed to issue to
each of Mr. Baugues, the Baugues Trust, and Mr. Richards, the sole members of
CCH, the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock set forth opposite such
member’s name below.

Under the
terms of the Bolzer Lease, the Company is required to pay to the lessors (1) a
minimum annual payment in an amount equal to $62,541 in each year during the
initial ten (10) year term of the Bolzer Lease, subject to increases in future
years (the “Minimum Annual Payment”) and (2) a royalty equal to 12.5% of the
gross proceeds on all coal mined from the Bolzer Property (the
“Royalty”). In addition, unless coal is mined from minerals owned by
the lessors, for each ton of coal mined from, stored on or transported across
the Bridger Property, the Company is required to pay a damage fee of $0.15 per
ton for such coal (the “Damage Fee”). In the event that the Royalty
and/or the Damage Fee in any year during the term exceeds twice the Minimum
Annual Payment, the Company is not required to make the Minimum Annual Payment
for that year.
- 5
-
The
Bolzer Lease is effective for a 10 year term. The Company has the
right to renew the Bolzer Lease for two additional 10 year terms upon at least
90 days written notice to the lessors prior to the expiration of the
then-current term. After 3 years from the effective date, the Company
has the right to terminate the Bolzer Lease, on any annual anniversary, upon 90
days prior written notice to the lessors and upon payment of all damage fees,
rentals and royalties accrued through the date of termination.
On
October 8, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Mr. Baugues, for the
development of coal mines in an area of Carbon County, Montana known as the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project. The project consists of 6,254
acres we have under lease and over 50,000 additional acres we are seeking to
lease. Under the terms of the agreement:
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues (or his new entity) will pay to the Company an overriding royalty
equal to 2% of the gross selling price of all coal produced from any
property that is part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues (or his new entity) will pay to the Company an
additional overriding royalty equal to 15% of the net profits from the
mining and sale of all coal produced from any property that is part of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
The
Company will have a right of first refusal to acquire up to a 50% interest
in any property that becomes part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues surrendered to the Company 15,925,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock for cancellation and caused to be surrendered 16,575,000
shares of the Company’s common stock held by the John T. Baugues Sr. Trust
for cancellation.
|
|
·
|
Subject
to Mr. Baugues (or a new entity to be formed by him) achieving certain
development milestones, the Company: (i) will sublease to a new entity to
be formed by Mr. Baugues, the Company’s mining lease for the 6,250 acre
Bolzer Property and (ii) will not interfere with the development of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project by Mr. Baugues (or his new
entity).
|
|
·
|
To
retain the Bolzer Property sublease and other rights under the settlement
agreement, Mr. Baugues (or his new entity) will be required to meet
certain milestones (over a 15 month period) relating to obtaining
financing, completing a drilling program, acquiring sufficient mining
rights to constitute a viable development plan for the project, and
submitting permitting applications.
|
|
·
|
Subject
to performance of the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company and
Mr. Baugues will release each other from any claims that they may have
against the other as of the date of the settlement
agreement.

Status of Bridger-Fromberg-Bear
Mountain Project.
We began
development of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project in April
2009. To date, we have not made any significant progress in
developing the project, primarily due to the failure of our development partner
to meet milestones for the project and our own insufficient funding
levels.
Our
development partner has failed to meet its development milestones for the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project, including milestones related to
obtaining financing and acquiring additional mining rights for the
project. We have not been in contact with our development
partner regarding the project since April 2010, and are unaware of the status of
its development efforts, if any. We have not exercised our right to terminate
the development agreement. However, we are evaluating
alternative arrangements to pursue the project.
Due to
our insufficient funding levels, we failed to make the January 2010 scheduled
minimum annual payment of $62,541 under our lease for the Bolzer Property, which
is part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project and the only mining rights
we currently hold. Although we have not received a notice of default
or terminations from the lessor of the property, there is no assurance we will
not receive one in the future.
- 6
-
In
addition, we have identified some potential imperfections in our legal rights to
the lease for the Bolzer Property. We have not had sufficient
financial resources to resolve these potential
imperfections. Therefore, there is no assurance we have valid
legal rights to the lease for the Bolzer Property.
As a
result of these and other factors, there is no assurance that we will be able to
successfully develop the project or identify, acquire or develop other coal
properties that would allow us to profitably extract and distribute coal and to
emerge from the exploration stage.
On May
28, 2009, the Company completed a five-for-one stock split of the Company’s
common stock and an increase in the number of our authorized shares of common
stock to 300,000,000. The share and per-share information disclosed
within this Form 10-Q reflect the completion of this stock split.
Business
Overview
The
Company’s business plan is to engage in the exploration, extraction and
distribution of coal. The Company is currently considered to be an
exploration stage company because it is engaged in the search for coal deposits
and is not engaged in the exploitation of a coal deposit. The Company
has not engaged in the preparation of an established commercially mineable coal
deposit for extraction or in the exploitation of a coal deposit. The Company
will be in the exploration stage until it discovers commercially viable coal
deposits on the Bolzer Property or any other property that the Company acquires,
if ever. In an exploration stage company, management devotes most of its
activities to acquiring and exploring mineral properties.
The
Company currently leases the Bolzer Property for the purpose of mining,
removing, marketing and selling coal. Further exploration will be
required before a final evaluation as to the economic feasibility of coal
extraction on the Bolzer Property can be determined. The Company has
done preliminary estimates of the surface seams on the Bolzer Property, and
intends to perform phase 1 drilling commencing in calendar year 2011 in order to
determine whether it contains a commercially viable coal deposit.
Going
Concern
The
Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the
normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of
$1,002,626 during the three months ended July 31, 2010, and an accumulated
deficit of $5,782,435 since inception. The Company changed its principal
business to the coal business in early 2009, but has not yet established an
ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to 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
development of operations.
In order
to continue as a going concern, develop a reliable source of revenues, and
achieve a profitable level of operations the Company will need, among other
things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to continue
as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of common
stock and or a 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
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and
equivalents
Cash and
equivalents include investments with initial maturities of three months or
less. The Company maintains its cash balances at credit-worthy
financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000. There were no cash equivalents at July 31,
2010 or April 30, 2010.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents. The
Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality
institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of FDIC
insurance limits. As of July 31, 2010, there were no deposits in
excess of federally insured limits.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
In the
first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards
Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC
820-10"). ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. ASC 820-10 delays,
until the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the effective date for
ASC 820-10 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities,
except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial
statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The adoption of ASC 820-10
did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or
operations, but does require that the Company disclose assets and liabilities
that are recognized and measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis,
presented in a three-tier fair value hierarchy, as follows:
•
|
Level 1.
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active
markets;
|
|
•
|
Level 2.
Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are
observable either directly or indirectly;
and
|
|
•
|
Level 3.
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which
require the reporting entity to develop its own
assumptions.
|
The following presents the gross value
of assets that were measured and recognized at fair value.
|
•
|
Level 1:
none
|
|
•
|
Level 2:
none
|
|
•
|
Level 3:
none
|
Effective
October 1, 2008, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification
subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820-10") and
Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments
("ASC 825-10"), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements
had an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and
accrued expenses, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value
because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
- 8
-
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the standards issued by the
FASB. Under those standards, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for
significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets
will not be realized through future operations.
Equipment
Equipment
is recorded at cost and depreciated using straight line methods over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets. The Company reviews the
carrying value of long-term assets to be held and used when events and
circumstances warrant such a review. If the carrying value of a
long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the
amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market
value. Fair market value is determined primarily using the
anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk
involved. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs is charged to
operations as incurred. Major overhaul that extends the useful life
of existing assets is capitalized. When equipment is retired or
disposed, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the
resulting profit or loss is recognized in income.
Issuance of Shares for
Non-Cash Consideration
The
Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or
services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of
the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably
determinable.
The
Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and
vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of the
standards issued by the FASB. The measurement date for the fair value
of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at
which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or
(ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is
complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants,
the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the
consulting agreement.
Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December of 2004, the FASB issued a standard which applies to transactions in
which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services and also
applies to liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are based
on the fair value of those equity instruments. For any unvested
portion of previously issued and outstanding awards, compensation expense is
required to be recorded based on the previously disclosed methodology and
amounts. Prior periods presented are not required to be
restated. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2006 and
applied the standard using the modified prospective method. The
Company has not issued any stock options, however, there were warrants to
purchase 8,000,000 common shares outstanding as of July 31, 2010. The
warrants have an exercise price of $0.28 and 8,000,000 of which were exercisable
as of July 31, 2010.
Exploration-Stage
Company
The
Company is considered an exploration-stage company, having limited operating
revenues during the period presented, as defined by the FASB
standard. This standard requires companies to report their
operations, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows since inception through the
date that revenues are generated from management’s intended operations, among
other things. Management has defined inception as May 19,
2005. Since inception, and more particularly since commencing
business in January 2008, the Company has incurred a net loss of $5,782,435.
Much of this related to consultants and professional fees, as a means to
generate working capital. The Company’s working capital has been
generated through the sale of common stock. Management has provided
financial data since May 19, 2005, “Inception”, in the financial
statements.
- 9
-
Net Loss Per
Share
The FASB
standard requires presentation of basic earnings or loss per share and diluted
earnings or loss per share. Basic income (loss) per share (“Basic
EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) is similarly
calculated using the treasury stock method except that the denominator is
increased to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if dilutive
securities at the end of the applicable period were exercised. There were no
potential dilutive securities as of July 31, 2009. There were
warrants to purchase 8,000,000 common shares outstanding as of July 31,
2010.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In May
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events," which is included
in ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events. ASC Topic 855 established principles
and requirements for evaluating and reporting subsequent events and
distinguishes which subsequent events should be recognized in the financial
statements versus which subsequent events should be disclosed in the financial
statements. ASC Topic 855 also requires disclosure of the date through which
subsequent events are evaluated by management. ASC Topic 855 was effective for
interim periods ending after June 15, 2009 and applies prospectively.
Because ASC Topic 855 impacts the disclosure requirements, and not the
accounting treatment for subsequent events, the adoption of ASC Topic 855 did
not impact the Company's results of operations or financial condition. See
Note 9 for disclosures regarding the Company's subsequent
events.
- 10
-
Effective
July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification ("ASC") 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—Overall
("ASC 105-10"). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting
principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in
the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules
and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws
are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All
guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The
Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.
All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the
Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the
form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force
Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). The
FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve
only to update the Codification, provide background information about the
guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the
Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout these consolidated
financials have been updated for the Codification.
In August
2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value,
which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities
at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an
identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not
available, an entity may use the quoted price of an identical liability when
traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities
traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income
approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not
adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its
transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical
liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be
considered level 1 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective
October 1, 2009. The adoption of this ASU did not impact the Company's
results of operations or financial condition.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, which provides
amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable
arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue
arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing
U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for
determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each
deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available,
third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or
estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor
third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its
best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to
determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also
eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement
consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all
deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any
discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on
its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative
information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue
arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to
arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance
exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions. ASU
No. 2009-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its results of operations
and financial condition.

basis with respect to private placements of the Company’s capital
stock. David Walters, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and
director, owns a 50% interest and is a managing member of Monarch
Bay. Pursuant to the engagement letter, the Company is required to
(1) pay to Monarch Bay 3% of the gross proceeds of any financing from
non-Monarch Bay sources and issue to Monarch Bay warrants to purchase that
number of shares of our common stock equal to 3% of the number of shares of
common stock (including convertible securities) issued in such financing, and
(2) pay to Monarch Bay 5% of the gross proceeds of any financing from Monarch
Bay sources and issue to Monarch Bay warrants to purchase that number of shares
of our common stock equal to 5% of the number of shares of common
stock (including convertible securities) issued in such
financing. The Company did not incur any expenses under the terms of
the agreement during the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009.
On
January 9, 2009, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement (the
“Acquisition Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the ownership interests in Patoka
River Coal Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“PRCC”), Patoka
River Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“PRH”), and Carbon
County Holdings, LLC (PRCC, PRH and CCH are collectively referred to herein as
the “LLCs”) in exchange for the Company’s agreement to issue a total of
40,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the owners of the LLCs, John
P. Baugues, Jr. (the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and director), the
Baugues Trust, and TRX Capital, LLC, a California limited liability company
controlled by Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of the Company’s board of
directors. At that time, PRCC held an exclusive option to acquire two
parcels of land in fee simple, which option expired on January 26, 2009, and CCH
held certain leasehold mining rights. On March 31, 2009, the Company
entered into a Letter Agreement Regarding Termination of Acquisition Agreement
(the “Termination Letter”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate
the Acquisition Agreement.

On April
13, 2009, the Company entered into a Strategic Consulting Services Agreement
with Charles S. Leykum (the Company’s former Board Advisor). Pursuant
to the Consulting Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Leykum (or Mr.
Leykum’s designees) an aggregate of 2,010,500 shares of the Company’s common
stock as a payment, in exchange for Charles S. Leykum’s agreement to provide
services under the Consulting Agreement. The Consulting Agreement had
a term of 24 months. The Company recorded the stock payment of
$1,467,665 as a prepaid expense on April 13, 2009 which reflected the numbers
shares issued multiplied by the closing trading price on the date of
issuance.
On July
13, 2009, the Company agreed to the termination of its Strategic Consulting
Services Agreement with Charles S. Leykum. In connection with the
termination of the agreement, Mr. Leykum and certain affiliated entities
surrendered 7,010,500 shares of the Company’s common stock for cancellation and
the parties agreed to a mutual release of all claims. The Company
treated the termination and cancellation of shares as a Type 1 subsequent event
because the termination provided information that led management to conclude
that the prepaid asset no longer had future economic
value. Accordingly, the termination of the Consulting Agreement and
the related cancellation of shares were recorded as of April 30,
2009. See Note 6 for further discussion.
Effective
July 10, 2009, John P. Baugues, Jr. resigned from the Board of Directors of the
Company and as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
On
October 8, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Mr Baugues, for the
development of coal mines in an area of Carbon County, Montana known as the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project. Under the terms of the
agreement:
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues (or his new entity) will pay to the Company an overriding royalty
equal to 2% of the gross selling price of all coal produced from any
property that is part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues (or his new entity) will pay to the Company an
additional overriding royalty equal to 15% of the net profits from the
mining and sale of all coal produced from any property that is part of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
The
Company will have a right of first refusal to acquire up to a 50% interest
in any property that becomes part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
Mr.
Baugues surrendered to the Company 15,925,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock for cancellation and caused to be surrendered 16,575,000
shares of the Company’s common stock held by the John T. Baugues Sr. Trust
for cancellation.
|
|
·
|
Subject
to Mr. Baugues (or a new entity to be formed by him) achieving certain
development milestones, the Company: (i) will sublease to a new entity to
be formed by Mr. Baugues, the Company’s mining lease for the 6,250 acre
Bolzer property and (ii) will not interfere with the development of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project by Mr. Baugues (or his new
entity).
|
|
·
|
To
retain the Bolzer property sublease and other rights under the settlement
agreement, Mr. Baugues (or his new entity) will be required to meet
certain milestones (over a 15 month period) relating to obtaining
financing, completing a drilling program, acquiring sufficient mining
rights to constitute a viable development plan for the project, and
submitting permitting applications.
|
|
·
|
Subject
to performance of the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company and
Mr. Baugues will release each other from any claims that they may have
against the other as of the date of the settlement
agreement.

On July
23, 2009, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with an accredited
investor controlled by Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of our board of
directors, for the sale of 400,000 shares of its common stock at a purchase
price of $1.00 per share. The sale closed on July 24,
2009.
On July
16, 2009, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with Lotus
Asset Management (“Lotus”) controlled by Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of

amount of $20,000. The agreement expired November 16,
2009. The Company incurred $20,000 under the terms of the agreement
for the three months ended July 31, 2009, which is included in consulting
expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As of July 31,
2010, no amounts were outstanding under the agreement.

During
the period from May 1, 2009 through April 30, 2010, Tydus Richards, the former
Chairman of our board of directors and shareholder, made payments totaling
$71,700 on behalf of the Company. The Company reimbursed Mr. Richards
$8,700 on September 3, 2009 and the remaining balance of $63,000 was outstanding
as of April 30, 2010. During the first quarter of the current fiscal year, Mr.
Richards made additional payments totaling $4,500 on behalf of the
Company. On May 12, 2010, the Company reimbursed an additional
$39,000 of the balance and the remaining balance of $28,500 remains outstanding
as of July 31, 2010.
NOTE
4 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Consulting
Agreements
The
Company has entered into consulting agreements for services to be provided to
the Company in the ordinary course of business. These agreements call
for expense reimbursement and various payments upon performance of
services. See Note 3 for further discussion.
Legal
There
were no legal proceedings against the Company.
Operating Leases
Commitments
Under the
terms of the Bolzer Lease, the Company is required to pay to the lessors (1) a
minimum annual payment in an amount equal to $62,541 in each year during the
initial ten (10) year term of the Bolzer Lease, subject to increases in future
years and (2) a royalty equal to 12.5% of the gross proceeds on all coal mined
from the Bridger Property. In addition, unless coal is mined from
minerals owned by the lessors, for each ton of coal mined from, stored on or
transported across the Bolzer Property, the Company is required to pay a damage
fee of $0.15 per ton for such coal. In the event that the Royalty
and/or the Damage Fee in any year during the term exceeds twice the Minimum
Annual Payment, the Company is not required to make the Minimum Annual Payment
for that year.
The
Bolzer Lease is effective for a 10 year term. The Company has the
right to renew the Bolzer Lease for two additional 10 year terms upon at least
90 days written notice to the lessors prior to the expiration of the
then-current term. After 3 years from the effective date, the Company
has the right to terminate the Bolzer Lease, on any annual anniversary, upon 90
days prior written notice to the lessors and upon payment of all damage fees,
rentals and royalties accrued through the date of termination.
The
future minimum lease payments associated with the Bolzer Lease for the fiscal
years ending April 30 are as follows:

lease for Bolzer Property. Although, to date, we have not received a
notice of default from the lessor of the property, there is no assurance we will
not receive one in the future.

the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and director, the Baugues Trust,
and Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of the Company’s board of
directors. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, CCH agreed to

The
Company has treated the 60,000,000 shares issued pursuant to the Contribution
Agreement as founder’s shares. The Company determined that the first
year lease payment of $62,541 was the best indicator of the cost of the
acquisition, accordingly, the issuance of the 60,000,000 founder shares were
recorded as a mining lease expense of $62,541 during the year ended April 30,
2009.
On April
13, 2009, the Company entered into a Strategic Consulting Services Agreement
with Charles S. Leykum. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed

shares of the Company’s common stock as a payment, in exchange for Charles S.
Leykum’s agreement to provide services under the agreement. The
agreement had a term of 24 months. The Company recorded the stock
payment of $1,467,665 as a prepaid expense on April 13, 2009 which reflected the
number of shares issued multiplied by the closing trading price on the date of
issuance.
On July
13, 2009, the Company agreed to the termination of its Strategic Consulting
Services Agreement with Charles S. Leykum. In connection with the
termination of the agreement, Mr. Leykum and certain affiliated entities
surrendered 7,010,500 shares of the Company’s common stock for cancellation and
the parties agreed to a mutual release of all claims. The Company
treated the termination and cancellation of shares as a Type 1
subsequent event because the termination provided information that led
management to conclude that the prepaid asset no longer had future economic
value. Accordingly, the termination of the agreement and the related
cancellation of shares were recorded as of April 30, 2009.
On July
23, 2009, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with an accredited
investor controlled by Tydus Richards, the former Chairman of our board of
directors, for the sale of 400,000 shares of its common stock at a purchase
price of $1.00 per share. The sale closed on July 24,
2009.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operation
In this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, “we,” “us”
and “our” refer to Management Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation. The
following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operation provide information that we believe is relevant to an
assessment and understanding of our financial condition and results of
operations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction
with our financial statements and notes thereto included with this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, and all our other filings, including Current Reports on
Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) through the
date of this report.
Forward
Looking Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes both historical and forward-looking
statements, which include information relating to future events, future
financial performance, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and
regulations. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,”
“predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,”
“intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as
statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements are intended to operate as “forward-looking statements” of the kind
permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, incorporated
in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”). That legislation protects such predictive
statements by creating a “safe harbor” from liability in the event that a
particular prediction does not turn out as anticipated. Forward-looking
statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results
and will probably not be accurate indications of when such performance or
results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on
information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good
faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ
materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking
statements. You should review carefully the section entitled “Risk
Factors” beginning on page 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion
of certain of the risks that could cause our actual results to differ from those
expressed or suggested by the forward-looking statements.
The
inclusion of the forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a
representation by us, or any other person, that such forward-looking statements
will be achieved. You should be aware that any forward-looking
statement made by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or elsewhere, speaks
only as of the date on which we make it. We undertake no duty to update any of
the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise. In light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
Management
Energy, Inc. plans to acquire and develop coal mining projects in the U.S. to
provide coal to both domestic and foreign markets. We are currently
considered to be an exploration stage corporation because we are engaged in the
search for coal deposits and are not engaged in the exploitation of a coal
deposit. We will be in the exploration stage until we discover
commercially viable coal deposits on the Bolzer Property or any other property
that we acquire, if ever. In an exploration stage company, management devotes
most of its activities to acquiring and exploring mineral
properties.
We are
developing the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project a coal mining project in
the vicinity of Bridger in Carbon County, Montana. The project
consists of 6,254 acres we have under lease and over 50,000 additional acres we
are seeking to lease.
Reserve
Estimates
The
project is still in the development stage and requires additional drilling and
study to establish reliable reserve estimates. Based on similar reserves in
proximity and related coal seams, our external consultants have assumed for
business planning purposes a reserve size of at least 200 million tons, a heat
rate of more than 11,000 Btu, and less than 1% sulfur. However, there
is no assurance that a commercially viable coal deposit exists on the project
site. Furthermore, there is no assurance that we will be able to
successfully develop the project or identify, acquire or develop other coal
properties that would allow us to profitably extract and distribute coal and to
emerge from the exploration stage.
- 18
-
Development
Strategy
Our
current strategy is to pursue the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project with a
development partner. We believe the benefits of this strategy
include:
|
·
|
Reduced
capital requirements. Our development partner will have
responsibility for obtaining funding for the project. We
are entitled to an overriding royalty (based on sales and net profits) on
the coal produced from the project without making any additional capital
investment.
|
|
·
|
Option
to participate in project investment. We have retained the
option to participate up to 50% in any acquisition of coal properties that
become part of the project.
|
|
·
|
Access
to industry and local market expertise. Our development partner
has over 20 years coal industry experience and has successfully developed
and exited a coal project in
Montana.
|
In
October 2009, we entered into an agreement with a development partner for the
development of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain Project. The
agreement provides that:
|
·
|
Subject
to our partner achieving certain development milestones, we will sublease
to our partner our mining lease to 6,254 acres in the
project
|
|
·
|
Our
partner will pay to us an overriding royalty equal to 2% of the gross
selling price of all coal produced from any property that is part of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
Our
partner will pay to us an additional overriding royalty equal to 15% of
the net profits from the mining and sale of all coal produced from any
property that is part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
|
·
|
We
will have a right of first refusal to acquire up to a 50% interest in any
property that becomes part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain
project.
|
To retain
its project rights, our development partner must meet certain milestones
relating to obtaining financing, completing a drilling program, acquiring
sufficient mining rights to constitute a viable development plan for the
project, and submitting permitting applications.
Status of Bridger-Fromberg-Bear
Mountain Project.
We began development of the
Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project in April 2009. To date, we
have not made any significant progress in developing the project, primarily due
to the failure of our development partner to meet milestones for the project and
our own insufficient funding levels.
Our development partner has failed to
meet its development milestones for the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project,
including milestones related to obtaining financing and acquiring additional
mining rights for the project. We have not been in contact with
our development partner regarding the project since April 2010, and are unaware
of the status of its development efforts, if any. We have not exercised our
right to terminate the development agreement. However, we are
evaluating alternative arrangements to pursue the project.
Due to
our insufficient funding levels, we failed to make the January 2010 scheduled
minimum annual payment of $62,541 under our lease for the Bolzer Property, which
is part of the Bridger-Fromberg-Bear Mountain project and the only mining rights
we currently hold. Although we have not received a notice of default or
termination from the lessor of the property, there is no assurance we will not
receive one in the future.
- 19
-
In
addition, we have identified some potential imperfections in our legal rights to
the lease for the Bolzer Property. We have not had sufficient
financial resources to resolve these potential
imperfections. Therefore, there is no assurance we have valid
legal rights to the lease for the Bolzer Property.
As a result of these and other factors,
there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully develop the project
or identify, acquire or develop other coal properties that would allow us to
profitably extract and distribute coal and to emerge from the exploration
stage.
As we execute our business plan in the
fiscal year ending April 30, 2011, we expect to incur a substantial amount of
operating expenses that have not been incurred or reflected in our historical
results of operations, including: mining lease expenses and expenses for
personnel, operations, and professional fees. We also expect that we will
continue to incur stock based compensation charges in future periods as we will
likely issue equity awards as a form of compensation to management and other
professional service providers.
Merger
Plans
On
September 15, 2010, we entered into a non-binding term sheet to merge with Maple
Carpenter Creek Holdings, Inc. (“MCCH”). MCCH is engaged in the
development of both thermal and metallurgical coal projects in the U.S. and
Colombia. MCCH has represented to us that it has invested over $10
million in and owns the following coal project interests:
|
·
|
Carpenter
Creek, Montana: an 80% interest in the Carpenter Creek coal
prospect near Round Up, Montana. – MCCH controls the surface rights
covering a resource potential of 345 million tons; and the mineral rights
for a resource potential of over 83 million tons of
coal.
|
|
·
|
Snider
Ranch, Montana: an 80% interest in the Snider Ranch real estate
and coal prospect and the Mattfield and Janich Ranch prospects, both of
which prospects are adjacent to the Signal Peak Mine, near Roundup,
Montana. MCCH controls the surface rights covering a resource potential of
over 43 million tons of coal.
|
|
·
|
Armadillo
Group Holdings Corp: a 72% ownership of Armadillo Mining Corp.
(“AMC”) in Colombia. AMC has exclusive options to acquire two
metallurgical coal mines in the Cundinamarca province of Colombia: (i)
Caparrapi is a permitted mine with minimum production and with a resource
potential of 11 million metric tonnes; (ii) Yacopi has resource potential
of 40 million metric tonnes.
|
Under the
terms of the non-binding term sheet, MCCH would merge with a wholly owned
subsidiary of Management Energy, Inc. in exchange for our issuance of 62,737,500
shares of our common stock to the owners of
MCCH. Post-transaction, our current shareholders would own
41,825,000 shares of common stock. The owners of MCCH also would be
issued an additional 20,912,500 shares of common stock to vest on certain
milestones to be defined in definitive transaction documents.
The term
sheet is a non-binding expression of interest. Although we
currently expect the transaction to close in October 2010, there is no assurance
that we will enter into a definitive agreement for the transaction or complete
the transaction. Among other contingencies, the transaction is
subject to the following conditions:
|
·
|
We
must secure a minimum of $750,000 of equity financing to provide working
capital for MCCH’s operations. A minimum of $250,000 must be
funded to MCCH on or before September 17, 2010, and the remainder must be
funded on or before September 24, 2010. On September 16, 2010,
the parties agreed to reduce the minimum equity financing to $250,000 and
extend the deadline to September 20,
2010.
|
|
·
|
Approval
of MMEX Board of Directors and
shareholders
|
|
·
|
Any
third-party rights of first refusal or waivers as required under MCCH’s
contracts.
|
|
·
|
Any
required governmental / regulatory
approvals.
|
|
·
|
Negotiation
and execution of definitive transaction agreements on or before Friday,
September 24, 2010, and closing on or before 30 days from first refusal
period.

Results
of Operations
Three
months ended July 31, 2010, Compared to Three months ended July 31,
2009
Revenues
We have
only recently entered the coal business. Accordingly, we have not generated any
revenues from continuing operations. We do not expect to generate any
revenues until at least the second quarter of calendar year 2011.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses from continuing operations totaled $1,002,626 for the three months
ended July 31, 2010 compared to $88,769 for the comparable period in the prior
year.
The
current period operating expenses primarily consist of a non-cash stock based
compensation charge recorded of $880,122 for the 8,000,000 warrants issued as a
retainer under an agreement with a coal consultant firm, $102,500 of consulting
fees, as well as $15,095 of other professional fees and $4,909 of other general
and administrative expenses.
The prior
year operating expenses primarily consist of consulting fees pursuant to our
Support Services Agreement, with Cardiff. Operating expenses for the
three months ended July 31, 2009 also include $6,200 of other professional fees
and $12,568 of other general and administrative expenses.
We
recently changed our principal business to the coal business, and expect to
continue to incur operating expenses to pursue our business plan.
Loss from Discontinued
Operations
On
January 14, 2009, we sold all of our assets to Joel Klandrud, our former officer
and director, pursuant to an Asset Sale Agreement. In exchange, Mr.
Klandrud (1) surrendered to us for cancellation 4,000,000 shares of our Common
Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (2) assumed all of our
liabilities. We did not incurr any losses from discontinued
operations for the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will
continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements,
we incurred losses of $1,002,626 and $88,769 for the three months ended July
2010 and 2009, respectively and have an accumulated deficit of $5,782,435 at
July 31, 2010. At July 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of
$700 and $1,429 of other current assets.
We have
not yet established a source of revenues to cover our operating costs and to
allow us to continue as a going concern. We do not expect to generate
any revenues until at least the second quarter of calendar year
2011. In order to continue as a going concern, develop a reliable
source of revenues, and achieve a profitable level of operations, we will need,
among other things, significant additional capital
resources. Accordingly, management’s plans to continue as a going
concern include raising additional capital through sales of common stock and
other securities.
The
business of exploring, extracting and distributing coal is capital
intensive. Execution of our business strategy will require
substantial capital investment in the short-term and in future
periods. We require capital for, among other purposes, identifying
and acquiring additional reserves and developing acquired reserves.
- 21
-
Our
current funding is not sufficient to continue our operations for the remainder
of the fiscal year ending April 30, 2011. We will require additional
debt and/or equity financing to continue our operations and meet our contractual
commitments (including under the Bolzer Property lease). We cannot
provide any assurances that additional financing will be available to us or, if
available, may not be available on acceptable terms.
Due to
our insufficient funding levels, we failed to make the January 2010 scheduled
minimum annual payment of $62,541 under our lease for Bolzer
Property. Although, to date, we have not received a notice of default
from the lessor of the property, there is no assurance we will not receive one
in the future.
On March
8, 2010, we sold a $50,000 convertible note to an accredited investor in a
private placement transaction. In the transaction, we received
proceeds of $35,000 and the investor also paid $15,000 of consulting expense on
our behalf. The convertible note is due and payable on December 31, 2010 with an
interest rate of 10% per annum. The note is convertible at the option of the
holder into our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.37, subject to
adjustment for stock splits and combinations.
If we are
unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease or delay
development of our operations, sell assets or our business may
fail. In each such case, the holders of our common stock would
lose all or most of their investment. Please see “Risk Factors” for
information regarding the risks related to our financial condition.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our
financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles used in the United
States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions
are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We
believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates is critical to
an understanding of our financials.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Issuance of Shares for
Non-Cash Consideration
The
Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or
services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of
the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably
determinable.
The
Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and
vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of the
standards issued by the FASB. The measurement date for the fair value
of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at
which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or
(ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is
complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants,
the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the
consulting agreement.
Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December of 2004, the FASB issued a standard which applies to transactions in
which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services and also
applies to liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are based
on the fair value of those equity instruments. For any unvested
portion of previously issued and outstanding awards, compensation expense is
required to be recorded based on the previously disclosed methodology and
amounts. Prior periods presented are not required to be
restated. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2006 and
applied the standard using the modified prospective method. The
Company has not issued any stock options, however, there were warrants to
purchase 8,000,000 common shares outstanding as of July 31, 2010.

Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events," which is included
in ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events. ASC Topic 855 established principles
and requirements for evaluating and reporting subsequent events and
distinguishes which subsequent events should be recognized in the financial
statements versus which subsequent events should be disclosed in the financial
statements. ASC Topic 855 also requires disclosure of the date through which
subsequent events are evaluated by management. ASC Topic 855 was effective for
interim periods ending after June 15, 2009 and applies prospectively.
Because ASC Topic 855 impacts the disclosure requirements, and not the
accounting treatment for subsequent events, the adoption of ASC Topic 855 did
not impact the Company's results of operations or financial condition. See
Note 9 for disclosures regarding the Company's subsequent
events.
Effective
July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification ("ASC") 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—Overall
("ASC 105-10"). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting
principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in
the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules
and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws
are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All
guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The
Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.
All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the
Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the
form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force
Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). The
FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve
only to update the Codification, provide background information about the
guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the
Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout these consolidated
financials have been updated for the Codification.
In August
2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value,
which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities
at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an
identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not
available, an entity may use the quoted price of an identical liability when
traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities
traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income
approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not
adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its
transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical
liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be
considered level 1 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective
October 1, 2009. The adoption of this ASU did not impact the Company's
results of operations or financial condition.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, which provides
amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable
arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue
arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing
U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for
determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each
deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available,
third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or
estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor
third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its
best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to
determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also
eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement
consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all
deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any
discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on
its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative
information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue
arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to
arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance
exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions. ASU
No. 2009-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its results of operations
and financial condition.

Evaluation
of Disclosure and Procedures
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this
report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation
Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the
information relating to us required to be disclosed in our Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is
accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Control Over Financial
Reporting
During
our most recent fiscal quarter, there has not occurred any change in our
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
