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 March 31, 2011 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from the date of inception on December 27, 1995 to March 31, 2011.

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 period 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. This method 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.
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense 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.
