NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Rostock Ventures, Corp. (“Rostock”) was incorporated November 2, 2006 in Nevada and is a development stage company.  Rostock  was formed to seek business opportunities in mineral exploration.  At December 31, 2007, Rostock had purchased two mining claims and is in the process of geologically evaluating and testing these claims.  However, since inception Rostock’s focus has been directed toward raising operating capital and further developing its business plan.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Rostock Ventures, Corp. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Rostock’s Annual Financial Statements included herein on this Form S-1 filed with the SEC.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim period is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal period ended December 31, 2008 have been omitted.

New Pronouncements

Effective this quarter, the Company implemented SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”). This standard establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The adoption of SFAS 165 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2009 up through August 11, 2009, the date the Company issued these financial statements.  During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable subsequent events.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

2.
Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Operating losses have been incurred each year since inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $126,704 at June 30, 2009. This condition raises substantial doubt about Rostock’s ability to continue as a going concern.   The Company has every intention of seeking additional capital.   The company is being funded by its director until a plan is formulated to raise additional funds; however, no assurance can be given as to the success of these efforts.

The financial statements of Rostock do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if Rostock is unable to continue as a going concern.

Debt

Notes payable of $20,000 consist of loan proceeds from an individual dated October 29, 2008.  The loan is payable on demand,  is non interest bearing and is unsecured.

At June 30, 2009 we owed $12,631 to a shareholder, which consisted of net funds advanced.  The funds advanced bear no interest and are unsecured.

4.
Equity

On January 14, 2009, Rostock approved a 7:1 forward stock split on its issued and outstanding shares of common stock to the holders of record as of that date.  As a result of the split, each holder of record automatically received six additional shares of Rostock’s common stock.  After the split, the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding are 40,698,273 shares for both December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009.  The accompanying financial statements and related notes thereto have been adjusted accordingly to reflect this forward stock split retroactively.

Preferred stock may be divided into and issued into one or more series by the Board of Directors.  The Board is authorized to determine rights, preferences, limitations and terms of preferred shares.  There were no preferred shares outstanding at June 30, 2009.

From inception (November 2, 2006) through June 30, 2009, Rostock sold 40,698,273 (split adjusted) shares of common stock for proceeds totaling $43,734.  Of the issued shares, 28,000,000 (split adjusted) were issued to the founder at $0.01 per share for proceeds of $40,000.

GENERAL

Rostock Ventures Corp. was incorporated on November 2, 2006, under the laws of the State of Nevada. We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Our stock trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “ROSV”.

Please note that throughout this Quarterly Report, and unless otherwise notes, the words “we”, “our”, “us”, the “Company” or “Rostock Ventures Corp.” refers to Rostock Ventures Corp.
 
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
 
January 14, 2009 Forward Stock Split
 
On January 14, 2009, our Board of Directors pursuant to a Board of Directors meeting authorized and approved a forward stock split of seven for one (7:1) of our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Forward Stock Split”). The Forward Stock Split was effectuated based on market conditions and upon a determination by our Board of Directors that the Forward Stock Split was in our best interests and of the shareholders. Certain factors were discussed among the members of the Board of Directors concerning the need for the Forward Stock Split, including the increased potential for financing. The intent of the Forward Stock Split is to increase the marketability of our common stock.
 
The Forward Stock Split was effectuated upon filing the appropriate documentation with NASDAQ. The Forward Stock Split increased our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 5,814,039 to approximately 40,698,273 shares of common stock. The common stock will continue to be $0.001 par value.
 
CURRENT BUSINESS OPERATIONS
 
We acquired a 100% undivided interest in a mineral claim known as McVicar Lode Mining Claim (the “McVicar Claim”) comprised of one located claim of 20 acres located in the Yellow Pine Mining District, Clark County, Nevada. Our plan of operation is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the McVicar Claim in order to assess whether it possesses mineral deposits of lead, zinc, copper, silver or gold capable of commercial extraction. Although the Yellow Pine Mining District is less famous than many of the other mining districts of the Great Basin, it nevertheless ranks second only to Tonopah in total Nevada lead and zinc production. During World War I, this district was one of the most productive in the West, but by the end of World War II, only a few mines remained in operation. A description of the McVicar Claim is provided under the heading “Description of Property.”

We have not earned any revenues to date. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our mineral properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on our mineral claim or that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our properties, or if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs. Further exploration is required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is required to determine whether our mineral claim possesses commercially exploitable mineral deposits. See “Plan of Operation.”

In December 2007, we acquired the Amerillo Claim (described below) for $5,000 in prospecting fees, which we have no current plans to explore or develop. We also hold a 100% interest in the McVicar Claim located in Nevada and the Amerillo Queen Claim located in Nevada, described below.

McVicar Claim

We entered into a purchase agreement dated December 22, 2006 with Kimberly Sinclair pursuant to which we acquired a 100% interest in the McVicar Claim for cash consideration of $6,000. Collin Sinclair, our President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole Director is not related to Kimberly Sinclair. The McVicar Claim property is comprised of a single located mineral claim with a total area of approximately 20 acres, located on the Yellow Pine Mining District, Clark County, Nevada. The McVicar Claim is located within Sections 11, 12, 13 and 14, Range 57E, Township 25S, at the easternmost portion of the Yellow Pine Mining District of Clark County, Nevada.

In accordance with Nevada mining regulations, the McVicar Claim is in good standing to September 1, 2009. To keep the claim in good standing for additional years, proof of labor on the claim has to be filed each year with the Clark County recorder’s office in Las Vegas prior to its expiry date.

In addition to Nevada State regulations, federal regulations require a yearly maintenance fee to keep the claim in good standing. In accordance with federal regulations, the McVicar Claim is in good standing to September 1, 2009. A yearly maintenance fee of $125 is required to be paid to the Bureau of Land Management prior to the expiry date to keep the claim in good standing for an additional year. If we fail to pay the required amount of fee of this exploration work, then our mineral claim will lapse on September 1, 2009, and we will lose all interest that we have in the mineral claim.
 
Location, Climate, Infrastructure and Access

The McVicar Claim is located within Sections 11, 12, 13 and 14, Range 57E, Township 25S, at the easternmost portion of the Yellow Pine Mining District of Clark County, Nevada. The McVicar Claim may be accessed by traveling south from Las Vegas via Interstate Highway 15 for approximately 27 miles, then traveling northwest along Highway 161 for approximately ten miles to Goodsprings. The McVicar Claim may be accessed from Goodsprings by traveling west by gravel road for approximately six miles, and then south along a poor dirt road for approximately four miles.

The McVicar Claim is situated at the northern end of the Sheep Mountain Range, a southerly trending range of mountains with peaks reaching an elevation of 4,184 feet. The McVicar Claim covers the northerly and the southerly facing slopes of an east-westerly trending ridge called the Bonanza Ridge. The local topography is moderately steep sloping with relief in the order of 400 feet from the valley floor. The area is typically desert climate with relatively high temperatures and low precipitation. Vegetation consists mainly of desert shrubs and cactus. Sources of water should be available from local valley wells.

Our McVicar Claim presently does not have any known mineral reserves. The McVicar Claim does not currently have any permanent infrastructure in place. Power to the McVicar Claim will need to be supplied by portable generators brought onto the Property.

History of Exploration

The mines of the Yellow Pine Mining District have been worked primarily for their lead-zinc-silver values; however, a limited amount of gold has been recovered as a by-product of copper-lead-silver mining as well.  The history of the exploratory work performed on the McVicar Claim is not known, however, the property does show indications of localized exploration pits. Our consulting geologist believes that these pits were probably excavated during the mid-to-late-1800’s when the Goodsprings concentrator was operating. Reports indicate that there was intermittent ore production at the Root Mine, located approximately one mile northeast of the McVicar Claim, during the period from 1893 to 1952. No production has been reported on the McVicar Claim.
 
Geological Report and Recommended Exploration Program

We engaged Laurence Sookochoff, P. Eng., to prepare a geological evaluation report on the McVicar Claim. Mr. Sookochoff is a consulting professional engineer in the Geological Section of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Mr. Sookochoff’s geological evaluation report concludes that the McVicar Claim incorporates some exploratory workings on mineral zones hosting significant zinc values. As the Yellow Pine Mining District has a history of significant zinc production from within veins or replacements of brecciated rocks along fault zones, Mr. Sookochoff has concluded that the McVicar Claim warrants further exploration for potentially economical mineral zones.
 
5

In his geological report, Mr. Sookochoff, recommended that a four-phase continuing exploration program be undertaken on the property in order to determine locations on which to focus concentrated exploration activities. The four-phase program consists of the following:

* Funding permitting

Current State of Exploration Activities

We have only recently commenced exploration of the McVicar Claim and our exploration activities are currently in the preliminary stages. Our planned exploration program is exploratory in nature and there is no assurance that we will find any mineral reserves on the McVicar Claim.

Phase I Exploration Results. Phase I of our exploration program was completed in January, 2007. The objective of the Phase I exploration program was to trench and sample the known mineral zone to determine the geological controls and the nature of the mineralization. In completing the recommended Phase I program on the McVicar Claim, two trenches were established on the McVicar Claim in locations of mineralization. The measurements of Trench I and Trench II were 30 feet long by three feet wide and two feet deep, and 35 feet long by three feet wide and two feet deep, respectively.  Three grab samples were taken: one from each of the two trenches and one from the dump of a previous exploratory working of unknown dimensions. The samples were submitted for assay at the Assayers Canada laboratory in Vancouver, Canada.

Based on the assay results, our geological consultant concluded that the Phase I program was successful in that the mineralization and the sampling results from the dump of the previous exploratory workings and from Trenches I and II returned encouraging assay results that are indicative of potentially economic zones of mineralization.

Phase II Exploration Results. Phase II of our exploration program was completed in December, 2008. The objective of the Phase II exploration program was to conduct VLF-EM and soil geochemical surveys, which should assist in defining the structural trend and indicated mineral zones and provide information as to the location of potentially economic mineral zones.

Based on the results of Phase II of our exploration program, our geological consultant recommended that Phase III be commenced. We anticipate its completion in July 2009.  The third phase consists of sampling and geological mapping within anomalous zones indicated from the results of Phase II, which will define anomalous areas for drilling in Phase IV. As of the date of this Report we have expended approximately $39,500 in connection with the preparation of the geological report and the exploration of our mineral claim.

A decision on proceeding with the planned Phase III exploration program and beyond is currently being re-evaluated by the Company and professional consultants. The decision whether or not to proceed will be based on the recommendations of our geological consultant. The decision of the consultant whether or not to recommend proceeding will be based on a number of factors, including his subjective judgment and will depend primarily on the results of the immediately preceding stage. Additionally, we need sufficient funds to complete the Phase III or Phase IV exploration on the property and may be forced to raise additional capital before completing such Phases.
 
Amerillo Queen Claim

In December 2007, we, through an agent of the Company (described below), filed a claim for the Amerillo Queen Claim (the “Amerillo Claim”) with the State of Nevada.  The Amerillo Claim encompasses approximately 0.02 of an acre in Clark County, Nevada. In consideration for the prospecting on the Amerillo Claim and the location of the claim, we paid $5,000 to Emil Leimanis, an individual.    We do not have any current plans to continue with the exploration of the Amerillo Claim until after the exploration of our McVicar Claim, funding permitting, if ever.  In accordance with federal regulations, the Amerillo Claim is in good standing to September 1, 2009. A yearly maintenance fee of $125 is required to be paid to the Bureau of Land Management prior to the expiry date to keep the claim in good standing for an additional year.  If we fail to pay the required amount of fee of this exploration work, then our mineral claim will lapse on September 1, 2009, and we will lose all interest that we have in the mineral claim.

We have incurred recurring losses to date. 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.

We currently anticipate having a net loss for each quarterly and annual period moving forward until and unless we are able to discover and successfully extract any minerals and generate any revenues through the sale of such minerals, of which there can be no assurance. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2008

Our loss from operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 was approximately $12,062 compared to loss from operations of $14,431 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 (a decrease of $2,369). During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, we did not generate any revenue.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, we incurred operating expenses of approximately $12,062 compared to $14,431 incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 (a decrease of $2,369). These operating expenses incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 consisted of: (i) legal and professional of $2,403 (2008: $638); and (ii) selling, general and administrative of $9,659 (2008: $13,793.)

Operating expenses incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 decreased primarily due to the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses generally include corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, marketing, and consulting costs.

Foreign currency exchange rate recorded during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 was $226 (2008: $7,525).

Therefore, our net loss during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 was $11,836 or $0.00 per share compared to a net loss of $6,906 or $0.00 per share during the six-month period ended June 30, 2008. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 40,698,273 for both six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, taking into consideration the Forward Stock Split.

Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2008.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We have financed our operations primarily from either advancements or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the six month period ended June 30, 2009, net cash flows provided from financing activities was $12,100 consisting of advances from shareholder.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

Our plan of operation is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the McVicar Claim in order to assess whether the claim possesses mineral reserves capable of commercial extraction. Our exploration program is designed to explore for commercially viable deposits of lead, zinc, copper, silver or gold mineralization. We have not, nor has any predecessor, identified any commercially exploitable reserves of these minerals on our mineral claim.

We received the geological evaluation report on the McVicar Claim entitled “Geological Evaluation Report on the McVicar Lode Mining Claim” prepared by Mr. Sookochoff on December 26, 2006. The geological report summarizes the results of the history of the exploration of the mineral claims, the regional and local geology of the mineral claims and the mineralization and the geological formations identified as a result of prior exploration. The geological report also gives conclusions regarding potential mineralization of the mineral claims and recommends a further geological exploration program on the mineral claims. Phase I of the exploration program recommended by Mr. Sookochoff was completed in January 2007, and Phase II of the exploration program recommended by Mr. Sookochoff was completed in December 2008. During the next twelve months, we intend to complete Phase III and Phase IV of the recommended exploration program, funding permitting, as described above.

We anticipate that we will incur the following expenses over the next twelve months:

The Next 12 Months (US$)

TOTAL

Our current operating funds are not sufficient to meet the anticipated costs of Phases III and IV of our exploration program for the McVicar Claim. Therefore, we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our full business plan. As of June 30, 2009, the date of our most recent unaudited financial statements, we had cash on hand in the amount of $1,515.
 
To date, we have not earned any revenues and we do not anticipate earning revenues in the near future. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors outside of our control, including the results from our exploration program, and any unanticipated problems relating to our mineral exploration activities, including environmental assessments and additional costs and expenses that may exceed our current estimates. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us in which case our business will fail.

Future Financing

Currently, we do not have sufficient capital resources to meet the anticipated costs of Phases III and IV of our exploration plan. We anticipate relying on equity sales of our common stock in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned business activities. We may also rely on loans from our executive officers and our sole Director; however, there are no assurances that our officers or our sole Director will provide us with any additional funds if and when needed.

Currently, we do not have any arrangements for additional financing. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing if and when required. We anticipate that any additional financing may be in the form of sales of additional shares of our common stock which may result in dilution to our current shareholders.

MATERIAL COMMITMENTS

A material commitment for us during fiscal year 2009 is an aggregate $20,000 due and owing to one of our shareholders. The loan is payable on demand and is non-interest bearing.

PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

GOING CONCERN

The independent auditors' report accompanying our December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM III. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse change in foreign currency and interest rates. 
 
Exchange Rate
 
Our reporting currency is United States Dollars (“USD”).  In the event we acquire any properties outside of the United States, the fluctuation of exchange rates may have positive or negative impacts on our results of operations. Although our potential properties are located in Canada, any potential revenue and expenses will be denominated in U.S. Dollars, and the net income effect of appreciation and devaluation of the currency against the U.S. Dollar would be limited to our costs of acquisition of property.
 
Interest Rate
 
Interest rates in the United States are generally controlled. Any potential future loans will relate mainly to acquisition of properties and will be mainly short-term. However our debt may be likely to rise in connection with expansion and if interest rates were to rise at the same time, this could become a significant impact on our operating and financing activities. We have not entered into derivative contracts either to hedge existing risks for speculative purposes.
 
ITEM IV. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the 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 Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President/Chief Executive Officer our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2009 due to lack of audit committee. Such officers also confirmed that there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, management is in the process of creating a new audit committee to remediate such material weakness; furthermore, we intend to hire a consulting firm to assess, review and conduct appropriate operational testing effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

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

Changes in Internal Controls
 
 No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009; however, we do not currently have an audit committee and management recognizes this a material weakness which affect our internal control over financial reporting, management intend to remediate such material weakness before the end of the second quarter 2009.

The 28,000,000 shares of common stock are currently “restricted” shares as defined in the Securities Act.  We claim an exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the above issuance, since the issuance did not involve a public offering, the recipient took the securities for investment and not resale and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer.
