We had cash and other current assets of $28,085 as at May 31, 2009, compared to $3,630 as at February 28, 2009. Our company’s normal operating expenses for the quarter ended May 31, 2009 of $13,280 included bank charges and interest of $263, office and miscellaneous of $5,014, professional fees (accounting, administration and legal) of $6,914, management fees of $500, transfer agent and regulatory fees of $589.
We are currently seeking a business opportunity or business combination. If our Company is successful in locating such a business and ultimately seeks to acquire or combine with the business, our company will incur expenses as part of the due diligence and transactional process. If an acquisition or business combination agreement is concluded in fiscal 2009, we anticipate that significant professional, filing and due diligence costs will be incurred by our company and, as a result, we will be forced to seek additional financing to fund the acquisition or business combination.
Our current plan of operation is to acquire a prospective business opportunity. We did not enter into any definitive agreements during the quarter ended May 31, 2009 in regards to the acquisition of a suitable business opportunity. Our Company has limited financing upon which to continue our operations, and we anticipate that any acquisition that our company may ultimately seek to enter into will require additional financing. We presently do not have any arrangements in place for the financing of our continued operations or the costs associated with locating, acquiring and developing a prospective business opportunity.
Even if we are able to acquire a business opportunity or an interest in a business opportunity, there is no assurance that any revenues will be generated by us or that revenues generated would be sufficient to provide a return to investors.
Operating Activities
Operating activities used cash of $11,055 for the six months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $10,110 for the six months ended May 31, 2008.
Investing Activities
There were no investing activities for the six months ended May 31, 2009. During the six months ended May 31, 2008 there was $5,000 used for investing activities.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended May 31, 2009, we repaid $25,000 for advances payable, and we completed a private placement with a director of the Company for the purchase of 25,000,000 common shares for proceeds of $58,291 (US$50,000). We received $15,000 from a director of our company during the six months ended May 31, 2008.
Capital Resources
We anticipate that we will incur approximately $50,000 for operating expenses over the next twelve months, exclusive of any acquisition or development costs. These expenses include professional legal and accounting expenses associated with our company being a reporting issuer in the United States under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and a reporting issuer in British Columbia.
This estimate may increase if we are required to carry out due diligence investigations in regards to any prospective business opportunity or if the costs of negotiating acquisition agreements are greater than anticipated. We had cash in the amount of $26,859 and a working capital deficiency in the amount of $56,585 as of May 31, 2009.

We presently do not have any arrangements in place for the financing of our continued operations or the costs associated with locating, acquiring and developing a prospective business opportunity. It is not possible to estimate such funding requirements until our company enters into a definitive agreement to either acquire a business or to enter into a business combination and participate in the business.
Even if we are able to acquire a business opportunity or an interest in a business opportunity, there is no assurance that any revenues will be generated by us or that revenues generated would be sufficient to provide a return to investors.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
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.
Transactions with Related Parties
The Company entered into the following transactions with related parties, which are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount.
| a) | During the six month period ended May 31, 2009, the Company incurred $1,000 (2008 - $nil) for management fees to a company with a common director. |
| b) | During the six month period ended May 31, 2009, the Company incurred $1,500 (2008 - $nil) for bookkeeping fees to a company with a common director. |
| c) | As at May 31, 2009, the Company owes $50,000 (November 30, 2008 - $50,000) to a director for advances, which are unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable on demand. |
| d) | As at May 31, 2009, the Company owes $15,000 (November 30, 2008 - $15,000) to a company owned by a shareholder for advances, which is unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable on demand. |
These transactions were in the normal course of operations and were measured at the exchange amount.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires our 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
A full discussion and description of the Company’s critical accounting policies are summarized in the November 30, 2008 audited annual financial statements. (Available on SEDAR).
Future Accounting Changes
International financial reporting standards (‘IFRS”)
In 2006, the AcSB published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five year transitional period. In February 2008, the AcSB announced that 2011 is the changeover date for publicly-listed companies to use IFRS, replacing Canada’s own GAAP. The date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2011 will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the year ended November 30, 2012. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS for 2011, the financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company does not expect the adoption of IFRS to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Outstanding Securities
The authorized capital of our company consists of 100,000,000 common shares, divided into 75,000,000 common shares without par value and 25,000,000 preference shares without par value. As of May 31, 2009, there were 31,058,256 common shares issued and outstanding and no preference shares issued and outstanding in the capital of our company. The Company has no options or warrants outstanding.
