CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in applicable securities laws. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “intend,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. For a description of our risks and uncertainties, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2012.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity or performance. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and except to the extent required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this quarterly report.
PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
It is the opinion of management that the unaudited interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 include all adjustments necessary in order to ensure that the unaudited interim financial statements are not misleading. These unaudited interim financial statements reflect 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. Except where noted, these unaudited interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as our Company’s audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Company’s audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011.

ADVANCED VENTURES CORP.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Organization
Advanced Ventures corp. (“Advanced Ventures” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation in the development stage and has not commenced operations. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 6, 2010. The business plan of the Company is to develop a commercial application of the design in a patent, “Catheter with integral anchoring means”. The Company also intends to enhance the existing prototype, and manufacture and market the product and/or seek third party entities interested in licensing the rights to manufacture and market the device. The accompanying financial statements of the Company were prepared from the accounts of the Company under the accrual basis of accounting.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The interim financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2012, and for the periods then ended, and cumulative from inception, are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2012, and cumulative from inception. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the calendar year ending December 31, 2012. The accompanying financial statements and notes thereto do not reflect all disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Refer to the Company’s audited financial statements as of December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC, for additional information, including significant accounting policies.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting within the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is in the development stage and has yet to realize revenues from operations. Once the Company has commenced operations, it will recognize revenues when delivery of goods or completion of services has occurred provided there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, acceptance has been approved by its customers, the fee is fixed or determinable based on the completion of stated terms and conditions, and collection of any related receivable is probable.
Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to the common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Fully diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There were no dilutive financial instruments issued or outstanding for the period ended March 31, 2012.
F-6 |
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period under the Federal tax laws.
Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The carrying value of accrued liabilities, and loans from directors and stockholders approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company defers as other assets the direct incremental costs of raising capital until such time as the offering is completed. At the time of the completion of the offering, the costs are charged against the capital raised. Should the offering be terminated, deferred offering costs are charged to operations during the period in which the offering is terminated.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining lives when events or circumstances lead management to believe that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For the period ended March 31, 2012, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets was required.
Common Stock Registration Expenses
The Company considers incremental costs and expenses related to the registration of equity securities with the SEC, whether by contractual arrangement as of a certain date or by demand, to be unrelated to original issuance transactions. As such, subsequent registration costs and expenses are expensed as incurred.
Estimates
The financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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, liabilities and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
F-7 |
Fiscal Year End
The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of December 31.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs")." Under ASU 2011-04, the guidance amends certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements to ensure that fair value has the same meaning in U.S. GAAP and in IFRS and that their respective fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are the same. ASU 2011-04 is effective for public entities during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a material impact on the Company's results of operation and financial condition.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income," ("ASU 2011-05") which amends current comprehensive income guidance. This accounting update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity. Instead, comprehensive income must be reported in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for public companies during the interim and annual periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have a material impact on the Company's results of operation and financial condition.
There were various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries. None of the updates are expected to a have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
(2) Development Stage Activities and Going Concern
The Company is currently in the development stage, and has no operations. The business plan of the Company is to develop a commercial application of the design in a patent of an “Catheter with integral anchoring means”. The Company also intends to enhance the existing prototype, and manufacture and market the product and/or seek third party entities interested in licensing the rights to manufacture and market the device.
On July 27, 2010, the Company entered into a Patent Transfer and Sale Agreement whereby the Company acquired all of the right, title and interest in the patent known as the “Catheter with integral anchoring means” for consideration of $17,500. The United States Patent number is 6,743,209.
The Company commenced a capital formation activity by filing a Registration Statement on Form S-1 to the SEC to register and sell in a self-directed offering 37,500,000 (post forward stock split) shares of newly issued common stock for proceeds of up to $75,000. The Registration Statement was declared effective on May 10, 2011. On June 16, 2011, the Company issued 37,500,000 (post forward stock split) shares of common stock pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 for proceeds of $75,000. The offering costs of $20,000 related to this capital formation activity were charged against the capital raised.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs, and as such, has incurred an operating loss since inception. Further, as of March 31, 2012, the cash resources of the Company were insufficient to meet its current business plan. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

(3) Patent
On July 27, 2010, the Company entered into a Patent Transfer and Sale Agreement whereby the Company acquired all of the right, title and interest in the patent known as the “Catheter with integral anchoring means” for consideration of $17,500. The United States Patent number is 6,743,209. Under the terms of the Patent Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Company was assigned rights to the patent free of any liens, claims, royalties, licenses, security interests or other encumbrances. The cost of obtaining the patent was expensed. The patent was filed on June 1, 2004 and assigned to the Company on July 27, 2010.
(4) Loans from Related Parties - Directors and Stockholders
As of March 31, 2012, loans from related parties amounted to $28,205 and represented working capital advances from Directors who are also stockholders of the Company. The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due on demand.
(5) Common Stock
On July 8, 2010, the Company issued 45,000,000 (post forward stock split) shares of its common stock to individuals who are Directors and officers of the company for $300.
The Company commenced a capital formation activity by filing a Registration Statement on Form S-1 to the SEC to register and sell in a self-directed offering 37,500,000 (post forward stock split) shares of newly issued common stock for proceeds of up to $75,000. The Registration Statement was declared effective on May 10, 2011. On June 16, 2011, the Company issued 37,500,000 (post forward stock split) shares of common stock pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 for proceeds of $75,000. The offering costs of $20,000 related to this capital formation activity were charged against the capital raised.
On February 21, 2012, the Company filed a certificate of amendment of certificate of incorporation to increase the amount of authorized common shares to 3,000,000,000 and to affect a forward stock split of the issued and outstanding common shares on a basis of 15 for 1 all to be effective as of March 7, 2012. The accompanying financial statements and related notes thereto have been adjusted accordingly to reflect this forward stock split.
(6) Income Taxes
The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the period ended March 31, 2012and 2011 was as follows (assuming a 23% effective tax rate):

The Company had deferred income tax assets as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as follows:

The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the deferred income tax assets for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, because it is not presently known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the loss carryforwards.
As of March 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $106,000 in tax loss carryforwards that can be utilized in future periods to reduce taxable income, and expire by the year 2032.
The Company did not identify any material uncertain tax positions. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company will file income tax returns in the United States. All tax years are closed by expiration of the statute of limitations.
(7) Related Party Transactions
As described in Note 4, as of March 31, 2012, the Company owed $28,205 to Directors, officers, and principal stockholders of the Company for working capital loans.
As described in Note 5, on July 8, 2010, the Company issued 45,000,000 (post forward stock split) shares of its common stock to Directors and officers for $300.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim financial statements and related notes for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. For a description of our risks and uncertainties, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2012.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2011 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and the same period last year are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
Overview
We were incorporated in Delaware on July 6, 2010 and are a development stage company. On July 27, 2010, we entered into an exclusive worldwide patent sale agreement (the “Patent Transfer and Sales Agreement”) with Ilanit Appelfeld (the “Seller”), in relation to a patented technology, U.S. Patent Number: 6,743,209 (the “Patent”), for a catheter with a integral anchoring mechanism. The patented technology has the potential to be adopted as a standard in all medical facilities, making a decisive contribution towards significantly and reliably securing a urethral catheter to the outside of a patient’s body in order to prevent or restrict undesirable movement or displacement of the catheter. The invention concept is flexible enough that it can be applied to humans as well as to animals, thus further increasing the marketing potential for a product based on the Patent.
Based on the Patent, the Company believes that this apparatus will help prevent or restrict undesirable movement or displacement of a catheter. However, until the Company can successfully develop a prototype and test it, the Company cannot currently estimate the full extent of the benefits to be gained from this apparatus.
The patent and technology were transferred to Advanced Ventures Corp. in exchange of payment to Ilanit Appelfeld of $17,500 (seventeen thousand five hundred United States Dollars), according to the terms and conditions specified in the Patent Transfer and Sales Agreement related to U.S. Patent Number: 6,743,209.
The invention that is the subject of the Patent is for a catheter with an integral anchoring means which is secured to the outside of a human or other animal body by suturing, tying or taping to a tubular, depression-shaped anchor member that is integrally formed during manufacture with the forming of the catheter, resulting in a one-piece multipurpose combination construction unit..
On March 7, 2012, the certificate of amendment to our certificate of incorporation that we filed became effective in order to increase our amount of authorized capital from 200,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 to 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 and to effect a fifteen (15) for one (1) forward stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result of the forward stock split, our issued and outstanding share capital increased from 5,500,000 shares of common stock to 82,500,000 shares of common stock.
We maintain our statutory registered agent’s office at Delaware Intercorp, Inc. 113 Barksdale Professional Center, Newark, DE, 19711 and our business office is located at No. 6 Houjiayu, Wangzuoxiang, Beijing, China, 100000. This is our mailing address as well.

Our Business
Advanced Ventures has acquired a catheter with an integral anchoring means which is secured to the outside of a human or other animal body by suturing, tying or taping to a tubular, depression-shaped anchor member that is integrally formed during manufacture with the forming of the catheter. The device operates by an anchoring means, which is secured to the outside of a human or other animal body by suturing, tying or taping to a tubular, depression-shaped anchor member that is integrally formed during manufacture with the forming of the catheter. To be effective a catheter with integral anchoring means must be easy to use and must be cost effective. Moreover, the Company believes that its catheter with integral anchoring means should greatly reduce bacterial growth. With the foregoing in mind, it would be greatly advantageous to provide catheter with an integral anchoring means that overcomes these costs and housekeeping problems associated with previous anchoring means, by operating with a standard catheter.
Based on the Patent, the Company believes that this apparatus will significantly reduce bacterial growth and infection. However, until the Company can successfully develop a prototype and test it, the Company cannot currently estimate the full extent of the benefits to be gained from this apparatus.
Advanced Ventures’ device is based on attaching urethral catheters to or at the outside of a human or other animal body by suturing, tying or taping to a tubular depression-shaped anchor member that is simultaneously and integrally constructively formed with the catheter tube proper during manufacture resulting in a single one-piece solitary tapered combination construction unit with no breaks or divisions. The Company believes it would be more advantageous that this tubular depression-shaped anchor member of the catheter be integrally formed during manufacture with the forming of the overall catheter resulting in a one-piece urethral catheter construction unit. The former construction requires the manufacture and assembly of multiple components in order to produce an equal unit. The Company believes its “built-in” tubular depression-shaped anchor member of this catheter requires less production material than that of other patents thereby significantly reducing manufacturing costs. Also there are no individual or additional anchoring components to inspect, test, sterilize, package or distribute. The Company intends to develop a fully operational valid working prototype, which can then be used to develop and manufacture the actual product. However, until the Company can successfully develop a prototype and test it, the Company cannot currently estimate the full extent of the benefits to be gained from this apparatus.
During the second quarter of 2011 the Company raised gross proceeds of $75,000 pursuant to its effective Form S-1 Registration Statement and issued 37,500,000 (post forward stock split) shares of common stock that were registered pursuant to the Form S-1 Registration Statement.
Employees
We currently do not have any full time employees.
Transfer Agent
We have engaged Nevada Agency and Transfer Company as our stock transfer agent. Nevada Agency and transfer Company is located at 50 West Liberty Street, Reno, Nevada 89501. Their telephone number is (775) 322-0626 and their fax number is (775) 322-5623. The transfer agent is responsible for all record-keeping and administrative functions in connection with our issued and outstanding common stock.
Plan of Operations
We are a development stage company that has acquired the technology and received a patent for a catheter with an integral anchoring means.
We intend to develop a working prototype for the patented technology. At this time, we are not sure when a working prototype will be ready, however, we anticipate one to be ready in six months.
The design and product development is divided into three individual stages:
3 |
· | Technical Concept/Definition (three months) |
· | Engineering Specification (four months) |
· | Engineering & Preparation for Production (six months) |
Financial Condition
During the twelve-month period following the date of this quarterly report, we anticipate that we will not generate any revenue. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain additional financing in order to pursue our plan of operations during and beyond the next twelve months. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding as we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or shareholder loans. However, we do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or shareholder loans to develop a working prototype for the patented technology. In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to continue moving forward with developing a working prototype of the catheter with an integral anchoring means and our business plan will fail.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth our results of operations from inception on July 6, 2010 to March 31, 2012 as well as for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, respectively, we did not generate any revenue.
Filings fees: Filing fees were $Nil and $Nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Professional fees: Professional fees were $31,533 and $6,450 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This increase was due to the increase in filings related to our reporting obligations for the three month period ended March 31, 2012.
Patent: Patent expenses were $Nil and $Nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Legal - incorporation: Legal - incorporation expenses were $Nil and $Nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Franchise Tax: Franchise Taxes were $400 and $nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Miscellaneous: Miscellaneous expenses were $Nil and $Nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Net Loss: The net loss was $31,674 and $6,450 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in net loss of $25,224 resulted primarily from an increase in professional fees.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.
As at March 31, 2012, our current assets were $3,177 and our current liabilities were $69,475, resulting in a working capital deficit of ($66,298). As at March 31, 2012, our total assets were $3,177 compared to total assets of $9,991 as at December 31, 2011. Total assets as at March 31, 2012 consisted of $3,177 in cash. As at March 31, 2012, our current liabilities were $69,475 compared to current liabilities of $44,615 as at December 31, 2011. Our current liabilities consisted of $41,270 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $28,205 in loans from related parties.
Stockholders’ deficit increased from ($34,624) as at December 31, 2011 to ($66,298) as at March 31, 2012.
We are a development stage company and have not generated any revenue to date from our activities. Despite our hope for revenues in the foreseeable future, we believe that revenues will be sparse and irregular and, if we receive any at all, will be far less than necessary to carry out our business forward without additional financing. We have $3,177 in cash as of March 31, 2012. Thus, in order to meet our capital needs, we will need to raise funds from other sources to remain in business. We intend to raise additional money through private placements or shareholder loans; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional money in the future. If we need additional capital and cannot raise the necessary amount, we will either be required to suspend activities until we do raise the cash or cease activity entirely.
In addition to the issues set out above regarding our ability to raise capital, global economies are currently undergoing a period of economic uncertainty. This has resulted in numerous adverse effects, including unprecedented volatility in financial markets and stock prices, slower economic activity, decreased consumer confidence and commodity prices and reduced corporate profits and capital spending. We anticipate that the current economic conditions and the credit shortage will adversely impact our ability to raise financing.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, net cash flow used in operating activities was ($6,814) compared to net cash flow used in operating activities of ($17,252) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Net cash flow used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 consisted primarily of a net loss of ($31,674) adjusted by $24,860 of changes to accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Net cash flow used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2011 consisted of a net loss of ($6,450) and prepaid expenses of ($12,802) adjusted by $2,000 of changes to accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Net Cash From Financing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2012, net cash flow provided from financing activities was $Nil compared to net cash flow provided from financing activities of $17,252 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Net cash flow provided from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2011 consisted of $17,252 from the proceeds from shareholder loans.
Subsequent Event
On May 3, 2012, we received a working capital advance in the amount of CAD$20,000 from our director who is also a shareholder, which is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no 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 that is material to investors.
Going Concern Statement
We have negative working capital, have not yet received revenues from sales of products or services, and have recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon our Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital. The financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recovery and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our Company discontinue operations.
Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating expenses and the capital expenses noted above, in their report on the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
The continuation of our business is dependent upon us raising additional financial support. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
