NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim financial statements of First Corporation (the Company) for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period from date of inception on December 27, 1995 to December 31, 2008 are not audited. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the requirements for unaudited interim periods, and consequently do not include all of the disclosures required to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2008 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period from the date of inception on December 27, 1995 to December 31, 2008. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year period.
NOTE 2 – NATURE AND PURPOSE OF BUSINESS
First Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 27, 1995. The Company’s activities to date have been limited to organization and capital formation. The Company is “an exploration stage company” and has acquired a series of mining claims for exploration and formulated a business plan to investigate the possibilities of a viable mineral deposit.
NOTE 3 – NATURE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company considers revenue to be recognized at the time the service is performed.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s short-term financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash. During the year the Company did not maintain cash deposits at financial institution in excess of the $100,000 limit covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes nor does it hold or issue interest rate or leveraged derivative financial instruments.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic Earnings per Share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year plus potential
dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrant. The effect of stock options on diluted EPS is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase the Company’s common stock at the average market price during the period. Loss per share is unchanged on a diluted basis since the assumed exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.
INCOME TAXES:
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes as required by SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. SFAS 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of certain assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
INCOME TAXES (CONT’D)
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expanse items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are
classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an
asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company had no significant deferred tax items arise during any of the periods presented.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
The Company does not have any concentration of related financial credit risk.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact to its financial statements
NOTE 4 – MINERAL CLAIMS
The Company entered into an option agreement, dated October 14, 2004 to acquire a 100% interest in a total of two mineral claims located in the Red Lake Mining District in Ontario, Canada. The property was acquired for $15,000 in cash. These costs have been expensed as exploration costs during the year ended September 30, 2007. On May 20, 2008, due to market conditions and the inability to attract additional capital, management made the decision to not renew ownership of the mineral claims and to seek other business opportunities.
NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK
On October 10, 2004 the Company effected a two for one stock split for all outstanding shares of stock at that date. On September 5, 2005 the Company effected a five for two stock split for all outstanding shares of stock at that date. These stock splits have been retroactively reported in the shareholders equity as if the stock splits occurred at inception.
In December, 1995 the Company issued 3,750,000 shares of its common stock to a shareholder in exchange for services. The shares were valued at $.002 per share for an aggregate of $600.
In April, 1999 the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock in exchange for cash. The shares were valued at $.0004 per share for an aggregate of $600.
NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK (CONT’D)
In September, 2004 the Company issued 220,000 shares of common stock in exchange for cash. The shares were valued at $.10 per share for an aggregate of $22,000.
In October, 2004 the Company issued 12,500,000 shares in exchange for services rendered. The shares were valued at $.0012 per share for an aggregate of $15,000.
In December, 2004 the Company issued 40,000 shares in exchange for cash. The shares were valued at $.10 per share for an aggregate of $4,000.
In September, 2005 two shareholders/officers cancelled 6,500,000 shares of stock that had previously been issued for services rendered.
In December, 2007 the Company issued 707,000 shares in exchange for cash. The shares were valued at $ .15 per share.
In August of 2008, the Board of Directors passed a resolution to amend and restate the Company’s articles of incorporation. The amended articles of incorporation increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to 500,000,000 with a par value of $.001 per share. The number of authorized shares of preferred stock remains at 10,000,000 shares.
NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In June of 2004 an entity related by common control advanced $15,000 in cash to the Company. The balance was repaid in September of 2004.
In May of 2005 a shareholder of the Company advanced $6,500 to the Company for the payment of certain exploration casts. The advance bears no interest rate and is payable upon demand.
In October of 2004 the Company issued 12,500,000 shares to the Company’s president for services rendered. Also, in October of 2004 the Company acquired mineral claims from this same individual by paying cash in the amount of $15,000. This transaction is also described in Note 3 to the financial statements.
During the year ended September 30, 2005, a shareholder advanced the Company $6,500 to assist the Company with working capital. During the year ended September 30, 2007, this shareholder advanced an additional $20,500 to the Company. These advances do not carry an interest rate, do not have a maturity date and are payable to the shareholder upon demand.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company repaid the advances to the shareholder and at September 30, 2008 there were no outstanding loans to shareholders.
In December of 2008 this same shareholder advanced $ 9,715 to the Company to assist with working capital needs. The Company repaid $2,415 of this advance in December of 2008. The balance due to the shareholder at December 31, 2008 totaled $ 7,300.
NOTE 6 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no
sales and has incurred a net loss of $ 155,845 since inception. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations form the development of its mineral properties. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Item 2.
Managements discussion and Plan of Operations
Our registration statement on Form SB2 was declared effective on July 8, 2007 and we were successful in completing slightly more than the minimum required under the terms of our prospectus, 707,000 shares at $0.15 per share for an aggregate amount of $106,050. Repayment of loans to the Company and legal, accounting and filing expenses severely depleted cash reserves. On May 18, 2008 we determined that due to market conditions and that potential financings were lost due to the uncertainties produced by the Company being designated a “shell corporation” and the proposed rule changes, that it was in the best interest of the corporation and the shareholders to not renew ownership of our mineral claims and proceed to look for further business opportunities.
