NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2006
(UNAUDITED)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
NOTE 1 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION |
(A) Organization and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.
It is management’s opinion however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
Dhanoa Minerals Ltd (an exploration stage company) (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 11, 2005. The Company is a natural resource exploration company with an objective of acquiring, exploring and if warranted and feasible, developing natural resource properties. Activities during the exploration stage include developing the business plan and raising capital.
(B) Use of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(C) Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
(D) Mineral Property
Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, the recoverability of the acquisition costs associated with the purchase of mineral rights is presumed to be insupportable prior to determining the existence of commercially minable deposits and are expensed when purchased.
DHANOA MINERALS LTD.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2006
(UNAUDITED)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
(E) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement 109”). Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(F) Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the assumed exercise of 2,854,545 and 0 shares were not included in the calculation of dilutive net loss per share as the amounts were anti-dilutive. Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the 1:5 forward stock split approved on October 9, 2006.
(G) Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for long-lived assets under the Statements of Financial Accounting Standards Nos. 142 and 144 “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 142 and 144”). In accordance with SFAS No. 142 and 144, long-lived assets, goodwill and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long-lived assets.
(H) Foreign Currency Translation
In accordance with SFAS 52 "Foreign Currency Translation", the Company has determined that its functional currency is the United States Dollar.
(I) Business Segments
The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
DHANOA MINERALS LTD.
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2006
(UNAUDITED)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
(J) Concentration of Credit Risk
At December 31, 2006, the Company had total cash of $1,896,773 in a Canadian bank which is uninsured.
(K) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments and SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets were recently issued. SFAS 155 and 156 have no current applicability to the Company and have no effect on the financial statements.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is in the exploration stage with no revenue and a negative cash flow from operations of $360,224 from inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding (See Note 6) and implement its strategic plans (See Note 3) provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 | DEPOSITS HELD IN ESCROW |

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Forward-Looking Statements and Information
When used in this report, the words "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "continue," "estimate," "project," "intend," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 regarding events, conditions, and financial trends that may affect the Company's future plans of operations, business strategy, operating results, and financial position. Persons reviewing this report are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties and that actual results may differ materially from those included within the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. These risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, include (i) the sufficiency of existing capital resources and the Company's ability to raise additional capital to fund cash requirements for future operations; (ii) volatility of the stock market; and (iii) general economic conditions. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such expectations may prove to be incorrect.
Results of Operations
Comparison of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2006 with the three months ended December 31, 2005.
The Company did not have any revenues during the three month period ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
The Company had a net loss of $254,494 during the three month period ended December 31, 2006 compared to a net loss of $16,107 for the comparable period in 2005, an increase of 1,480%. Components of the changes in net loss are discussed below.
Exploration costs and expenses increased by $122,215 or 2,444% quarter-on-quarter to $127,215 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same corresponding quarter in 2005 of $5,000. The increase was in line with increase in the mining exploration activities in Ecuador.
General and administrative expenses increased by $97,190 or 5,424% quarter-on-quarter to $98,982 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, compared to the same corresponding quarter in 2005 of $1,792.
Professional fees increased by $19,128 or 209% to $28,297 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, compared to the same corresponding quarter in 2005 of $9,169.
Total other income and expenses decreased by $146 or 100% quarter-on-quarter to $ 0 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, compared to $146 for the same corresponding quarter in 2005.
Liquidity
The Company had stockholders' equity of $3,432,898 as of December 31, 2006, including cash of $1,896,773. However, the Company believes that its liquidity is not sufficient for the next 12 months. As a result, the Company intends to offer and sell its capital stock and may incur borrowings to expand the business of the Company. During February 2007, the Company sold $1,300,000 of its common stock and warrants to increase its liquidity.
Because the Company has been in the exploration stage with no revenue, a negative cash flow, and contract commitments in excess of its cash and other liquid current assets, this raises substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and continue its operations for the next 12 months.
On January 23, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 80% of Promenasa, S.A. that owns producing gold mines in Ecuador. The Company has agreed to pay $2,400,000 for their equity in the properties. Additionally, the Company has committed to loaning $7,300,000 to its subsidiary for making improvements and upgrading the milling and refining technology at the mines.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2006. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, a material weakness in our internal accounting controls existed prior to December 31, 2006 so that our disclosure controls and procedures in place were not adequate to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. Although our principal executive officer and principal financial officer believes our current existing disclosure controls and procedures are adequate to enable us to comply with our disclosure obligations, we intend to formalize and document the procedures already in place and establish a disclosure committee.
Changes in internal controls
We are in the process of making significant changes to our internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date. During the course of the most recent examination of our financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2006 by our independent accountants, we were advised of the existence of a material weakness in our internal accounting controls that existed prior to December 31,2006. We are applying the necessary corrective action and believe this weakness will be remediated.
