FRESH HARVEST PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



NOTE 1.  

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY


Nature of Operations


Fresh Harvest Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“the Company”) was incorporated in New Jersey on April 21, 2005.


From inception through October 31, 2007, the Company devoted substantially all of its efforts to gain market acceptance of its products.  During that period, it was considered to be in the development stage. As of November 01, 2007, the Company began generating revenue and accordingly is no longer considered to be in the development stage.


The Company develops on a proprietary basis, markets and sells organic and natural food and beverage products.  The Company sells its products to consumers through local, regional and national supermarkets, retailers, distributors, brokers, wholesalers and an online web-store.


Wings of Nature, LLC, formed in August 2009 is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.


Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.  For the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company generated net losses of $170,819 and $153,584, respectively.  As of January 31, 2010, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $4,761,316 and had cash of $1,474.

Management believes that additional capital will be required to fund operations through the year ending October 31, 2010 and beyond, as it attempts to generate increasing revenue, and develops new products. Management intends to raise capital through additional equity and convertible debt offerings. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining financing at the level needed or on terms acceptable to the Company.  In addition, there is no assurance, assuming the Company is successful in raising additional capital that the Company will be successful in achieving profitability or positive cash flow. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company’s auditors’ in their audit report as of and for the two years ended October 31, 2009 contained in Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 16, 2010 expresses substantial doubt that the Company will continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash



6



flows of the Company for the respective periods presented.  The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the year as a whole. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009 as filed with the SEC on February 16, 2010.


Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Reclassifications


Certain amounts in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2009 have been reclassified by the Company to conform to the January 31, 2010 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net loss.


Revenue Recognition and Sales Incentives


Sales are recognized when the earnings process is complete, which occurs when products are shipped in accordance with terms of agreements, title and risk of loss transfer to customers, collection is probable and pricing is fixed or determinable. Sales are reported net of sales incentives, which include trade discounts and promotions and certain coupon costs. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in reported sales. Allowances for cash discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized.


Valuation of Accounts and Charge-backs Receivable


The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations on existing and new customers. When it is determined that an amount included in accounts receivable is uncollectable it is written off as uncollectable. Credit losses have been within our expectations. The Company believes there are no credit exposures at this time.  There can be no assurance that the Company would have the same experience with the accounts receivables during different economic conditions, or with changes in business conditions, such as consolidation within the food industry and/or a change in the way the Company markets and sells products.


Inventory


As of January 31, 2010, the inventory is valued at the lower of actual cost or market, utilizing the first-in, first-out method.  The Company provides write-downs for finished goods expected to become non-saleable due to age and specifically identify and provide for slow moving products and packaging. As of and for the three months ended January 31, 2010, the Company determined that there was no need for a reserve for obsolete inventory.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment is carried at cost and depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The Company believes the asset lives assigned to property and equipment is within the ranges/guidelines generally used in food manufacturing and distribution businesses.  Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets of five years. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.


Depreciation expense was $2,853 and $2,870 for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Earnings per Share


The basic earnings (loss) per share is defined as the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.  The diluted earnings per shares is the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period and to



7



each share that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period.  The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the number of shares determined by (a) the portion of time within a reporting period that common shares have been outstanding to (b) the total time in that period.  In computing diluted EPS, equivalent common shares are considered for all dilutive potential common shares.


The Company has not issued any options or warrants or similar securities since inception.  Potentially dilutive common shares of approximately 6,503,495 related to convertible loans were not included in the calculation for any periods presented as they are anti-dilutive.


Dividends


The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Income Taxes


The provision for income taxes is the total of the current taxes payable and the net of the change in the deferred income taxes. Provision is made for the deferred income taxes where differences exist between the period in which transactions affect current taxable income and the period in which they enter into the determination of net income in the financial statements.


Advertising


Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 was zero and $1,350, respectively.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest bearing accounts that currently do not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of January 31, 2010.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are reflected in the accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements at carrying value, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.  


Net Loss Per Share Calculation


Basic net loss per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.   Diluted earnings per shares is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued.  




8



The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for computing basic EPS for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 were 44,220,821 and 44,237,125, respectively.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived assets such as property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.


Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.  The Company’s impairment analyses did not result in an impairment charge through January 31, 2010.


Share-based compensation


The Company accounts for common stock issued to employees, directors, and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 – Stock Compensation. The compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.  The cost associated with common stock issued to employees, directors and consultants will recognized, at fair value, on the date issued.  Awards granted to non-employee consultants will be subsequently re-measured to current fair value until performance is completed or a performance commitment exists.


ASC 740 - Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company and or its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the US Federal jurisdiction and various state, and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to US Federal income tax examination by tax authorities for the years prior to October 31, 2006.  With respect to state and local with limited exception, the Company and or its subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax audits prior October 31, 2006.  In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these open tax years. Based on Management’s review of the Company’s tax position, the Company and or subsidiaries had no significant unrecognized tax liabilities as of January 31, 2010.


NOTE 3.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


During 2009, the Company adopted the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (ASC-105), (formerly SFAS No. 168, The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). This standard establishes only two levels of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), authoritative and nonauthoritative. The Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) became the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The Company adopted the ASC in 2009.  As the Codification was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, it did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


During 2009, the Company adopted an accounting standard update regarding the determination of the useful life of intangible assets. As codified in ASC-350 (formerly FSP No. 142-3, “Determination of



9



the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”), this update amends the factors considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under intangibles accounting. It also requires a consistent approach between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under prior business combination accounting and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of an asset under the new business combinations accounting (as currently codified under ASC-850).  The update also requires enhanced disclosures when an intangible asset’s expected future cash flows are affected by an entity’s intent and/or ability to renew or extend the arrangement.  The adoption of this accounting update has not had a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


During 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard for subsequent events, as codified in ASC-855 (formerly SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events). The update modifies the names of the two types of subsequent events either as recognized subsequent events (previously referred to in practice as Type I subsequent events) or non-recognized subsequent events (previously referred to in practice as Type II subsequent events).  In addition, the standard modifies the definition of subsequent events to refer to events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued (for public entities) or available to be issued (for nonpublic entities).  The update did not result in significant changes in the practice of subsequent event disclosures, and therefore the adoption has not had a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  


During 2009, the Company adopted an accounting standard update regarding accounting for income taxes as codified in ASC-740-10 (formerly FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109). This standard update prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company’s adoption of this interpretation did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.


In February 2008, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that delayed the effective of fair value measurements accounting for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  The Company adopted this accounting standard update during 2009. The adoption of this update to non-financial assets and liabilities, as codified in ASC-820 (formerly FSP 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”), has not had a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


NOTE 4.

UNPAID PAYROLL TAXES AND FEDERAL TAX LIENS

As of January 31, 2010, the Company owed the Internal Revenue Service and New York State payroll related taxes in the amount of $137,711 plus applicable interest and penalties.  The Internal Revenue Service has placed a Federal Tax Lien on the assets of the Company.  The Company is currently negotiating a payment plan with both tax authorities.

NOTE 5.   

ADVANCES FROM RELATED PARTIES


As of January 31, 2010 and 2009, the outstanding balance on advances from related parties was $538,038 and $606,101, respectively.  All of the advances are documented as convertible notes payable.

NOTE 8.  

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES


The Company provides for income taxes by the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.  This also requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  


The Company has approximately $2,500,000 in gross deferred tax assets at January 31, 2010, resulting from net operating loss carry forwards.  A valuation allowance has been recorded to fully offset these deferred tax assets because the future realization of the related income tax benefits is uncertain. Accordingly, the net provision for income taxes is zero as of January 31, 2010.  As of January 31, 2010, the Company has federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $4,000,000 available to offset future taxable income through 2029 subject to the filing of the Company’s United States Federal Income Tax Returns.



12




As of January 31, 2010, the difference between the tax provision at the statutory federal income tax rate and the tax provision attributable to loss before income taxes is as follows (in percentages):


Statutory federal income tax rate

 

 

-34

%

State taxes - net of federal benefits

 

 

-5

%

Valuation allowance

 

 

39

%

Income tax rate – net

 

 

0

%


The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the US Federal jurisdiction, state, and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to US Federal income tax examination by tax authorities for the years prior to October 31, 2006.  With respect to state and local with limited exception, the Company and or its subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax audits prior to October 31, 2006.  In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these open tax years.


Based on Management’s review of the Company’s tax position, the Company and subsidiaries had no significant unrecognized tax liabilities as of January 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


NOTE 9.  

COMMITMENTS:


As of January 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no lease obligations.  


NOTE 10. 

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN


The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.


As reflected in the accompanying quarterly financial statements, the Company experienced a net loss of $170,819 for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and a net loss of $153,584 for the three months ended January 31, 2009, along with an accumulated deficit of $4,761,316 as of January 31, 2010.


Management believes that additional capital will be required to fund operations through the year ended October 31, 2010 and beyond, as it attempts to generate increasing revenue, and develops new products. Management intends to raise capital through additional equity offerings and convertible debt. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining financing at the level needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


The Company’s operations are subject to certain additional risks and uncertainties including, among others, dependence on outside suppliers and manufacturers, competition, dependence on its exclusive license and relationship with the licensor, uncertainties regarding patents and proprietary rights, dependence on key personnel, and other business risks. In addition, there is no assurance, assuming the Company is successful in raising additional capital that the Company will be successful in achieving profitability or positive cash flow.


NOTE 11.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


As of March 22, 2010, the date the quarterly consolidated unaudited interim financial statements were available to be issued, there are no subsequent events that are required to be recorded or disclosed in the accompanying financial statements as of and for the three months ended January 31, 2010.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.

You should read the following discussion together with "Selected Historical Financial Data" and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those we currently anticipate as a result of many factors.


Some of the information in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:


discuss our future expectations of which there is significant uncertainty; ;;

contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition; and

state other "forward-looking" information.


Unless stated otherwise, the words “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” or “Fresh Harvest Products, Inc.” in this Quarterly Report collectively refers to the Company.


Plan of Operations


We began realizing revenues from operations during the quarter ending July 31, 2006, and, as of November 1, 2007 we are no longer a development stage company.  


We were formed in New Jersey as a blank check company on April 21, 2005 with no operations, assets or purpose other than the purpose of seeking a privately held operating company as an acquisition or merger candidate. On December 16, 2005, we acquired Fresh Harvest Products, Inc., a New York corporation, a development stage company in the organic food business, and assumed its operations as our new business. As a result of the acquisition, we were no longer a blank check company, and the controlling shareholders of the acquired company became the controlling shareholders of our company. The acquisition was considered a reverse acquisition for accounting and financial reporting purposes.  


Since the acquisition, our business plan has been to develop proprietary products to sell, market and distribute.  Some of our products include: organic snack and coffee bars that have no refined sugar, are cholesterol free, trans fat free, low in sodium and gluten free and organic coffee from South America and Africa.  Our goal is to bring healthy, great tasting organic food products at affordable prices to the mass markets.  We are now selling the product line to select supermarkets chains in the eastern part of the United States.


Our primary efforts have been devoted to selling our line of organic food and beverage products and raising capital. Accordingly, we have limited capital resources and have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and expect these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future. 


As of January 31, 2010, the Company had current assets of $64,758 that includes $1,474 cash, net accounts receivable of $25,823 and inventory of $37,461.  Management believes that the liquid cash



14



and other liquid assets on hand as of January 31, 2010 are not sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months. Accordingly, we will be required to raise additional funds to meet our short and long-term planned goals. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available at all, can be obtained on terms reasonable to us. In this regard, we have obtained and will continue to attempt to obtain (short and long term) loans for inventory purchases, new product development, expansion, advertising and marketing. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in obtaining the aforementioned financings (either debt or equity) on terms acceptable to us, or otherwise.


Three months ended January 31, 2010 compared to January 31, 2009


For the three months ended January 31, 2010, we recorded revenues of $17,889 compared to $40,637 in the same period of 2009. The decrease in revenues is attributed to no new marketing initiatives and programs.


Gross profit, defined as revenues less cost of goods sold, was $9,202 for the quarter ended January 31, 2010, compared to $9,090 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009.  The difference is attributed to the fact that there was a decrease in revenues of products though distributors and there was a decrease in the cost of goods sold,  The gross profit in 2009 contained some products with a lower gross profit, which decreased our overall gross profit, which although there was greater revenue considerably decreased our gross profit.  


We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $151,219 for the three months ended January 31, 2010, and $135,959 for the three months ended January 31, 2009.  This increase in operating expenses is attributed to the Company’s increase in non-cash activity, such as share issuances for services rendered.


Our net loss was $170,819 for the three months ended January 31, 2010 which was an increase from $153,584 for the quarter ended January 31, 2009.  The increase was primarily a result of a decrease in revenues, a decrease in operating expenses, but an increase in expense related to the issuance of shares for services rendered.


Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern


Since inception, we have not been able to finance our business from cash flows from operations and have been reliant upon loans and proceeds from the sale of equity which may not be available to us in the future, or if available, on reasonable terms. Accordingly, if we are unable to obtain funding from loans and the sale of our equity, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern.  


At January 31, 2010, we had current assets of $64,758 including $1,474 cash, inventory of $37,461 and accounts receivable of $25,823.  We had net fixed assets with a net book value of $32,757.


As of January 31, 2010, we had notes payable in the total principal amount of $381,936, all but $45,000 of which are overdue. While management believes that the note holders will not seek to declare the notes in default, there is no assurance of this. All but $19,636 of the note principal due is convertible into shares of our common stock. However, due to the current per share trading price of our common, we cannot be certain if any portion of the loan principal will be converted by the convertible note holders.   To the extent that debt is converted into shares of common stock, if any, Current shareholders equity positions will be diluted without any new capital being invested into the Company.



15



Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies


Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible and intangible assets, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the periods covered.


We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. The most significant estimates relate to intangible assets, deferred financing and issuance costs, and the fair value of financial instruments. We base our estimates on historical company and industry experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which, form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ materially from those estimates.


See Note 2 to the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for a listing of our critical accounting policies.

Inflation  

As of January 31, 2010, we do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.


Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures


Evaluation of Controls and Procedures.


In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, our management is required to perform an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of January 31, 2010, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (who is the same individual) has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in this Report was (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and instructions for Form 10-Q.




16



Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures had the following deficiency:

 

·

Management has also identified a lack of sufficient personnel in the accounting functions due to the limited resources of the Company with appropriate skills, training and experience to perform the review processes to ensure the complete and proper application of generally accepted accounting principles, particularly as it relates to taxes. Specifically, this material weakness led to segregation of duties issues and resulted in audit adjustments to the annual consolidated financial statements and revisions to related disclosures, including tax reporting.


We are in the process of developing and implementing remediation plans to address our material weaknesses.


Management has identified specific remedial actions to address the material weaknesses described above:

 

 

·

Improve the effectiveness of the accounting group by continuing to augment our existing resources with additional consultants or employees to improve segregation procedures and to assist in the analysis and recording of complex accounting transactions and preparation of tax disclosures. We plan to mitigate the segregation of duties issues by hiring additional personnel in the accounting department once we have achieved positive cash flow from operations, and/or have raised significant additional working capital.

 

·

Improve segregation procedures by strengthening cross approval of various functions including cash disbursements and quarterly internal audit procedures where appropriate.


Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.


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 three months ended January 31, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.


None.


Item 1A.  Risk Factors.


We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.


The above statement notwithstanding, shareholders and prospective investors should be aware that an investment in our business is extremely high risk and investors should be aware that his or her entire investment in the Company may be lost. The many risks that exist with respect to the Company and its business include, but are not limited to: its limited assets, dependence upon its sole officer who has other unrelated business interests, lack of revenues and losses since inception, industry risks, the need for additional capital; risks inherent in obtaining its products from sources outside the United States



17



such as political and economic unrest and instability, the threat of military actions and terrorist activities; among other factors. The Company’s management is aware of these risks and has established the minimum controls and procedures to insure adequate risk assessment and execution to reduce loss exposure.


Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds


During the quarter ending January 31, 2010, we issued 21,910,700 shares of our common stock to 15 individuals or entities for services rendered to the Company that was valued by the Company at $92,707.  We also issued 30,234,514 shares of our common stock to 4 individuals or entities for the conversion of debt which was valued by the Company at $266,500.  The securities were issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
