Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying interim financial statements for the three and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 are unaudited and include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management for a fair presentation. The results of operations realized during an interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information filed as part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form SB-2 which was declared effective on May 11, 2007.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
NOTE 2.
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
In October 2006, the Company sold 600,000 shares of its common stock to 39 shareholders for $600 in cash.
Pursuant to the October 17, 2006 board of directors’ approval and subsequent stockholder approval, the Company adopted its 2006 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) whereby we reserved for issuance up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock. Non-Statutory Stock Options do not meet certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Service, as compared to Incentive Stock Options which meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Nonqualified options have two disadvantages compared to incentive stock options. One is that recipients have to report taxable income at the time that they exercise the option to buy stock, and the other is that the income is treated as compensation, which is taxed at higher rates than long-term capital gains. The Company intends to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 so as to register those 1,500,000 shares of common stock underlying the optio ns in the Plan once it is eligible to do so.
No options have been issued or are outstanding under the Plan as of June 30, 2007.

The Company’s president, John P. Greeley, was a director for Snow & Sail Sports, Inc. through August 2006. The principal owner of RJ Greeley, Inc. is John P. Greeley’s brother. Snow Sports is controlled by the same individual as controlled Snow & Sail Sports, Inc., but the Company’s president has no management or ownership affiliation.
NOTE 4
GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company commenced operations in June 2005. However, it has not established a level of ongoing revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs to allow it to continue as a going concern. It has an accumulated deficit, a net stockholders’ deficit, a very limited amount of assets, and virtually no backlog of business. As a result of these factors, the Company has substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company will actively seek new engagements and engage in very limited activities without incurring any liabilities that must be satisfied in cash until a source of funding is secured. The Company will offer noncash consideration and perform services that do not require cash outlays as a means of financing its operations. If the Company is unsuccessful in these efforts and cannot obtain new engagements or a source of funding, it may substantially curtail or terminate its operations

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF OPERATION
Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Information set forth herein contains "forward-looking statements" which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may,” “should" or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. No assurance can be given that the future results covered by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. The Company cautions readers that important factors may affect the Company’s actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These factors include the Company’s lack of historically profitable operations, dependence on key personnel, the success of the Company’s business, ability to manage anticipated growth and other factors identified in the C ompany's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases and/or other public communications.
Operations for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
During the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we performed engagements for the following clients:
|

These engagements do not have automatic renewal or extension clauses. We cannot predict the likelihood that we will receive additional engagements from any of these or any other clients.
Our president, John P. Greeley, was a director for Snow & Sail Sports, Inc. through August 2006. The principal owner of RJ Greeley, Inc. is John P. Greeley’s brother. Snow Sports is controlled by the same individual as controlled Snow & Sail Sports, Inc., but our president has no management or ownership affiliation.

Our expenses consisted of:
|
| 2007 |
| 2006 |
Compensation | $ | 16,000 | $ | 22,250 |
Subcontractor costs |
| 2,600 |
| - |
Selling and administrative |
| 32,897 |
| 1,951 |
Total | $ | 51,497 | $ | 24,201 |
All compensation costs were paid to our president. The subcontractor costs in 200 7 were incurred in connection with our work on the Universal PreK engagement. The largest portions of selling and administrative costs in 2007 were training costs and professional fees.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2007, we had cash of $5,939. Given our limited staff and level of operations there are no specific trends that define or affect our business or liquidity. Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We commenced operation in June 2005. However, we have not established a level of ongoing revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs to allow us to continue as a going concern. We have an accumulated deficit, a net stockholders’ deficit, a very limited amount of assets, and virtually no backlog of business. As a result of these factors, we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
JPG does not have any credit facilities or other commitments for debt or equity financing. No assurances can be given that advances when needed will be available. Our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is significant uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern in their report on our financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006.
We do not believe that we need funding to continue our operations at our current level because we do not have a capital-intensive business plan, and our fixed cost level is low. Private capital, if sought, will be sought from former business associates of our president or private investors referred to us by those business associates. To date, we have not sought any funding source and have not authorized any person or entity to seek out funding on our behalf. If a market for our shares ever develops, of which there can be no assurances, we may use restricted shares to compensate employees/consultants and independent contractors wherever possible. If we are successful in using restricted shares to satisfy operating obligations, it will help our cash flow and possibly enable us to meet some or all of the obligations of being a public company without needing other sources of financing. We believe that operations are gener ating sufficient cash to continue operations at their current levels for the next 12 months from the date of this prospectus if engagement revenues continue unchanged, of which no assurances can be given.
10
During the nine months ended June 30, 2007, our President made loans of $18,000 to us of which $13,000 remained outstanding at June 30, 2007.
We have become a public entity, subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of '34, and will incur ongoing expenses associated with professional fees for accounting, legal and a host of other expenses for annual reports and proxy statements. We estimate that these costs will range up to $50,000 per year for the next few years and will be higher if our business volume and activity increases but lower during the first year of being public because our overall business volume will be lower, and we will not yet be subject to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. These obligations will reduce our ability and resources to fund other aspects of our business and may prevent us from meeting our normal business obligations. If we are not successful in using our status as a public company to use noncash means of settling obligations and compensate independent contractors (both through issuance of negotiated and agreed to number of restricted shares of our common stock), it is likely that we will be unable to undertake the steps necessary to expand our business. If engagement revenue decreases at the same time that cash is required to meet our public company related expenses, we may have to cease operations absent receipt of some form of debt or equity financing.
Our president has agreed to defer compensation otherwise payable to him so as to permit us to remain viable and meet our expenses if sufficient revenues are not generated. If compensation is deferred under this agreement, it will be accrued and paid in the future if and when sufficient resources exist to do so.
In October 2006, JPG sold 600,000 shares of its common stock to 39 people for $600. The sale of such shares was not specifically or solely intended to raise financing since the funds raised were de minimis. It was also intended to get relatives and/ our business associates of management involved in our business. Although these stockholders have no obligation to provide any services to us, management hopes that these new stockholders and their families may provide us with valuable services such as recommending our services and providing us with business advice in any areas of expertise or knowledge that they may have that can be of assistance to us.
11
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final rules under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Commencing with our annual report for the year ended September 30, 2008, we will be required to include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting. The internal control report must include a statement
·
of management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting;
·
of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of year end;
·
of the framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; and
·
that our independent accounting firm has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which report is also required to be filed
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurement (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS 157 also expands the disclosures related to the fair value measurements used to value assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on our financial statements.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No 87, 88, 106 and 132(R) (“SFAS 158”). SFAS 158 requires the recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and the recognition of changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS 158 also requires the measurement of the funded status of a plan as of the date of the year-end statement of financial position. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure, on an item-by-item basis, specified financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are required to be reported in earnings at each reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, the provisions of which are required to be applied prospectively.
12
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Accounting Bulletin No. 108,Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity in practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 requires that registrants quantify errors using both a balance sheet and income statement approach and evaluate whether either approach results in a misstated amount that, when all relevant quantitative factors are considered, is material.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes(“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes and 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. FIN 48 is effective for financial statements as of January 1, 2007. The application of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Emerging Issues Task Force (the “EITF”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission have issued certain other accounting pronouncements and regulations as of June 30, 2007 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management of the Company does not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected the Company’s financial accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during 2007, 2006 and 2005, and it does not believe that any of those pronouncements will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements at the time they become effective.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2007, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, including leases.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In preparing our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we must make decisions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, we apply judgments based on our understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances, historical experience, and actuarial valuations. Actual amounts could differ from those estimated at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared.
13
Seasonality
To date, we have not noted seasonality as a major impact on our business.
ITEM 3
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) that are designed to assure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (one person, our President), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this report, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
