NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2012
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ deficit or cash flows. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended July 31, 2011. The interim results for the period ended January 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.
Note 2 – Nature of Operations
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 9, 2007 and is in the exploration stage. The Company is engaged in activities related to the exploration for mineral resources in Canada. The Company acquired a mineral property claim located in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, but allowed the claim to lapse on October 6, 2010. The Company is currently searching for new mineral properties to acquire.
The Company has adopted July 31as its fiscal year end.
Note 3 – Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated a deficit of $94,330 since inception, has yet to achieve profitable operations and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications to the assets and liabilities which would be necessary if the Company was unable to continue its operations. Management plans to obtain short-term loans from the directors of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
SPECIAL NOTE OF CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
CERTAIN STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT, INCLUDING STATEMENTS IN THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION, ARE WHAT ARE KNOWN AS "FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS", WHICH ARE BASICALLY STATEMENTS ABOUT THE FUTURE. FOR THAT REASON, THESE STATEMENTS INVOLVE RISK AND UNCERTAINTY SINCE NO ONE CAN ACCURATELY PREDICT THE FUTURE. WORDS SUCH AS "PLANS," "INTENDS," "WILL," "HOPES," "SEEKS," "ANTICIPATES," "EXPECTS "AND THE LIKE OFTEN IDENTIFY SUCH FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS, BUT ARE NOT THE ONLY INDICATION THAT A STATEMENT IS A FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT. SUCH FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS INCLUDE STATEMENTS CONCERNING OUR PLANS AND OBJECTIVES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY, AND STATEMENTS WHICH EXPRESS OR IMPLY THAT SUCH PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS WILL OR MAY PRODUCE REVENUES, INCOME OR PROFITS. NUMEROUS FACTORS AND FUTURE EVENTS COULD CAUSE THE COMPANY TO CHANGE SUCH PLANS AND OBJECTIVES OR FAIL TO SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENT SUCH PLANS OR ACHIEVE SUCH OBJECTIVES, OR CAUSE SUCH PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS TO FAIL TO PRODUCE REVENUES, INCOME OR PROFITS. THEREFORE, THE READER IS ADVISED THAT THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN LIGHT OF THE DISCUSSION OF RISKS AND OTHER FACTORS CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-Q AND IN THE COMPANY'S OTHER FILINGS WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. NO STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS A GUARANTEE OR ASSURANCE OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE OR FUTURE RESULTS.
Plan of Operation
As at January 31, 2012, we had a cash balance of $973, compared to a cash balance of $1,471 as of July 31, 2011. Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to seek out and acquire a new mineral property or properties for exploration and development.
Our plan of operation for the twelve months is to complete the acquisition of a mineral exploration property and commence an initial phase of exploration on the property. We estimate that the cost of acquisition and initial exploration will be approximately $35,000.
As well, we anticipate spending an additional $25,000 on administrative fees, including fees payable in connection with our filing obligations as a reporting issuer. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are therefore expected to be approximately $60,000.
We do not have sufficient funds to cover the anticipated administrative expenses or to acquire a new mineral property, so we will require additional funding. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or fromdirector loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing or loans.
8
If we are not successful in raising additional financing, we anticipate that we will not be able to proceed with our business plan. Any business opportunity would require our management to perform diligence on possible acquisition of additional resource properties. Such due diligence would likely include purchase investigation costs, such as professional fees by consulting geologists, preparation of geological reports on the properties, conducting title searches and travel costs for site visits.
Our current cash on hand will not be sufficient to acquire any resource property and additional funds will be required to close any possible acquisition. As a reporting company we will need to maintain our periodic filings with the appropriate regulatory authorities and will incur legal and accounting costs. If no other such opportunities are available and we cannot raise additional capital to sustain minimum operations, we may be forced to discontinue business. We do not have any specific alternative business opportunities in mind and have not planned for any such contingency.
Based on the nature of our business, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that very few mineral claims in the exploration stage ultimately develop into producing, profitable mines. Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These factors include the following:
·
|
our ability to raise additional funding;
|
·
|
our ability to acquire a new mineral property;
|
·
|
the market price for minerals that may be found on any mineral property we may acquire;
|
·
|
the results of our proposed exploration programs on the mineral property; and
|
·
|
our ability to find joint venture partners for the development of our property interests.
|
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations for Period Ending January 31, 2012
We have had no operating revenues since our inception on February 9, 2007 through January 31, 2012, and have incurred operating expenses in the amount of $94,330 for the same period. Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of share subscriptions and director loans.
We do not anticipate earning revenues unless we enter into commercial production on any mineral property we may acquire, which is doubtful. We have not commenced the exploration stage of our business and can provide no assurance that we will discover economic mineralization on any mineral property we may acquire, or if such minerals are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production.
For the three months endedJanuary 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $7,211 compared to $2,010 for the three months ended January 31, 2011 and professional fees were $1,885 compared to $950 for the same period last fiscal year.
For the six months endedJanuary 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $10,995 compared to $2,031 for the six months ended January 31, 2011 and professional fees were $5,958 compared to $5,542 for the same period last fiscal year.
9
Since our inception on February 9, 2007 through January 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $35,420, professional fees were $45,912, incorporation cost were $500 and we incurred $12,500 in geological, mineral and prospect costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At January 31, 2012, we had total assets of $5,423, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and prepaid expenses. Our liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $14,053 and $56,500 due to related parties.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not Applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a Company's controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2012 because the following material weakness in internal control over financial reporting existed as of that date.
(i) lack of segregation of incompatible duties due to insufficient personnel; and
(ii) Insufficient Board of Directors representation.
10
Though no material misstatements have resulted, our management has determined that until such time as sufficient representation on our Board of Directors can be achieved the Company's inability to formulate an audit committee represents a significant risk.
A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of control deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of an annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The above noted deficiency in internal control was not reported in earlier financial statements as management thought that the lack of operations made up these weaknesses. Accordingly, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period ended January 31, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. However, as noted above, there has been a change in management's evaluation of those controls.
