Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
March 31, 2007
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying interim financial statements for the three-month periods ended March 31, 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
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2007, the Company has limited financial resources, has not established a source of equity or debt financing has negative working capital and has incurred operating losses since inception. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations or obtain adequate financing.
The Company will solicit sales based on all leads that it can obtain from contacts of its president, existing customers, advertising and trade literature. However, the Company cannot predict the likelihood of it being successful in its efforts to increase sales.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
NOTE 3
SALE OF STOCK
On January 16, 2007, 860,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were sold to 39 shareholders at $.001 per share, including 100,000 shares sold to the wife of the Company’s president and 10,000 shares sold to a director of the Company.

Operations
We were founded as an unincorporated business in January 2006, became a limited liability company on April 3, 2006 under the name JL Solutions Mechanical LLC and a C corporation on October 10, 2006. We began generating revenue in January 2006. At January22, 2007, we had one employee, Jeffery Thompson, our president. Mr. Thompson devotes fulltime to us.

Sales - We commenced operations in January 2006. Therefore, the revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2006 reflects our efforts to start obtaining revenue engagements. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2007 represent increases over the final three months of 2006. We cannot provide any assurances that these increases will continue.
Cost of sales – gross margins declined in 2007 because of increased compensation and subcontractor costs.
General and administrative - The principal components of general and administrative in 2007 are advertising ($1,804), automobile and fuel expenses ($2,676), communications ($1,219), insurance ($1,846), office supplies ($675), and professional fees ($1,583).
Depreciation– depreciation relates principally to our truck and equipment. .
Startup costs - were initial costs of initial planning and incorporating. These costs were satisfied through the issuance of 9,140,000 shares of common stock to our president in exchange for his membership units in his Texas LLC.

As a corporate policy,we will not incur any cash obligations that we cannot satisfy with known resources, of which there are currently none except as described in “Liquidity” below and/or elsewhere in this prospectus. We believe that the perception that many people have of a public company make it more likely that they will accept restricted securities from a public company as consideration for indebtedness to them than they would from a private company. We have not performed any studies of this matter. Our conclusion is based on our own observations. However, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in any of those efforts even if we are a public entity. Additionally, issuance of restricted shares would necessarily dilute the percentage of ownership interest of our stockholders.
Liquidity
In 2006, we generated $21,080 from operating activities. We believe that we can manage our basic HVAC operations in a similar manner to at least breakeven from a cash perspective during the next 12 months. We do not plan on making any significant capital expenditures have no plans to hire additional employees and therefore do not anticipate raising any additional funds during the next twelve months. See below for a discussion of the expected impact of incremental costs associated with becoming a “public” company.
Despite the fact our president is willing to consider providing us with a loan or advance us on a case by case basis (for costs other than offering expenses), his personal resources are limited. We do not believe that we can rely on the likelihood of any significant advance beyond $30,000 if we are unable to pay standard operating costs and our president is not legally bound to provide us with such loan. We have a $6,000 revolving line of credit with a credit union that requires minimum monthly payments of $157 which includes interest and principal. Interest is charged at the rate of 6.24%, per annum. At March 31, 2007, the balance outstanding was $5,399. This line of credit is guaranteed by our president.
We have a long-term bank loan the proceeds of which were used to purchase our truck. The balance outstanding at March 31, 2007 was $16,544. The loan is guaranteed by our president and is payable in equal monthly payments of $501 through June 2010. The loan includes interest at the rate of 7.10% per annum.
Private capital, if sought, will be sought from former business associates of our founder 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 of our common stock to compensate employees/consultants and independent contractors wherever possible. We believe that operations are generating sufficient cash to continue operations for the next 12 months from the date of this prospectus.

We have become a public company and, by doing so, have incurred and will continue to incur additional significant expenses for legal, accounting and related services. Once we become a public entity, subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of '34, we 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. We hope to be able to use our status as a publ ic company to increase our ability to use noncash means of settling obligations and compensate independent contractors who provide professional services to us, although there can be no assurances that we will be successful in any of those efforts. We will reduce the compensation levels paid to our president if there is insufficient cash generated from operations to satisfy these costs.
There are no current plans to seek private investment. We do not have any current plans to raise funds through the sale of securities. We hope to be able to use our status as a public company to enable us to use non-cash means of settling obligations and compensate persons and/or firms providing services or products to us, although there can be no assurances that we will be successful in any of those efforts. Issuing shares of our common stock to such persons instead of paying cash to them would increase our chances to expand our business. Having shares of our common stock may also give persons a greater feeling of identity with us which may result in referrals. To date, we have not sought any funding source and have not authorized any person or entity to seek out funding on our behalf.
In January 2007, Solutions Mechanical sold 860,000 of its common stock to 39 people for $860. 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 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, their families, friends and/or business associates 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 value and assistance to us.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Commencing with our annual report for the year ended December 31, 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;
10
§
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 December 2004, the FASB issued FASB SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS No. 95,Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The new standard became effective on December 15, 2005. The Company has not yet assessed the impact on future operations of adopting this new standard.
In June 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3”. This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,” and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to financial statements of prior periods’ for a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 154 did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
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.
11
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 Company has not yet determined the affect of applying FIN 48.
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 December 31, 2006 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 2006, 2005 and 2004, 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related notes requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements.
Financial Reporting Release No. 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements. There are no critical policies or decisions that rely on judgments that are based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Note 2to the financial statements, included elsewhere in this prospectus, includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Seasonality
Typically, there is a greater demand for our services in the summer months.
12
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Regulation S-B Section 303.
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.
