SUPPORTSAVE SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AUGUST 31, 2009
1. | NATURE OF BUSINESS |
SupportSave Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on May 2, 2007, and provides offshore business process outsourcing, or BPO, services from an outsourcing center through its wholly-owned subsidiary of the same name, which was incorporated in the Philippines on October 17, 2006 and operates in the Philippines. Both the parent and its subsidiary are hereinafter referred to as "the Company".
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the parent company and its wholly-owned Philippines subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
A. | Basis of Presentation |
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. We believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the financial information presented not misleading. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended May 31, 2009. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
B. | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
SupportSave considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of 3 months or less to be cash equivalents.
C. | Property and Equipment |
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided by straight-line and accelerated methods, over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 39 years for real estate (building) and 5 to 7 years for furniture and equipment. Normal expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.
D. | Deferred Revenue |
Deferred revenue represents advances received on services to be rendered for the period subsequent to August 31, 2009.
SUPPORTSAVE SOLUTIONS, INC.

AUGUST 31, 2009
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) |
E. | Income Taxes |
The Company uses an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. The difference between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities is determined annually. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for those differences that have future tax consequences using the currently enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the periods in which they are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, if necessary, to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.
F. | Foreign Currency Translation |
The functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. The financial statements of the Company’s Philippine operations are translated to U.S. dollars using the period exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurs. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange translations are included in the Statement of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income (loss).
G. | Currency Hedging Contract Transactions |
The Company's operating expenses consist primarily of salaries, payroll taxes and employee benefit costs paid to the professionals that the Company employs in the Philippines. Since employee related costs are paid in the local currency, the Company is exposed to the risk of foreign currency fluctuations. In an effort to try to minimize the downside risk of fluctuating currency rates, the Company has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts. Any gains or losses from the settled and outstanding forward contracts are recorded as other income/expense in the Statement of operations.
H. | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
The Company reviews its major assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an asset is considered impaired, then impairment will be recognized in an amount determined by the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value.

I. | Financial Instruments |
The carrying amounts of financial instruments are considered by management to be their estimated fair values due to their short-term maturities. Securities that are publicly traded are valued at their fair market value based as of the balance sheet date presented.
J. | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
K. | Advertising Costs |
The Company follows the policy of expensing advertising costs as they are incurred.
L. | Treasury Stock |
Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock in recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent reissuance of shares are credited or charged to capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.
M. | Basic Loss per Share |
Basic loss per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
N. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Overview
We provide offshore business process outsourcing, or BPO, services which we deliver primarily to U.S.-based clients from our facilities in the Philippines. BPO services involves contracting with an external organization to take primary responsibility for providing a business process or function, such as customer management, transcription and captioning, processing services, human resources, procurement, logistics support, finance and accounting, engineering, facilities management, information technology and training. These customer care services and solutions are provided by our skilled customer service representatives to small and mid-sized companies in the healthcare, communication, business services, financial services, publishing, and travel and entertainment industries.
Research and Development
We will not be conducting any product research or development during the next 12 months.
Results of Operations for the three months ended August 31, 2009 and 2008
To become more profitable and competitive, we have to attract more clients, sell our services and generate more revenues.
Our revenue reported for the three months ended August 31, 2009 was $596,804, compared with $454,460 for the three months ended August 31, 2008.
Our revenue generated for all periods was attributable to the sale of our BPO services. The increase in revenues for the three months ended August 31, 2009 from the same period in 2008 is attributable to an increase in the sale of our BPO services as a result of expanding our facilities and operations.
Returns and allowances are refunds for services not provided. Returns and allowances for the three months ended August 31, 2009 amounted to $5,111, compared with $16,562 for the same period ended August 31, 2008.
Our revenue less returns and allowances is our total revenue. Total revenue for the three months ended August 31, 2009 was $591,693, compared with $437,898 for the same period ended August 31, 2008.
Our operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2009 was $446,060, compared with $308,740 for the same period ended August 31, 2008. The increase in our operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2009 compared with August 31, 2008 is mainly attributable to increased payment for advertising, commissions, computer services, consulting fees, .employee benefits, rent, and salaries, offset by decreased payment for bank charges, legal and accounting fees, and outside services.
We had other income of $45,837 for the three months ended August 31, 2009. Other income for this period consisted mainly of $24,395 in gains on sales of investments, $17,437 in gains from currency hedging transactions and $3,880 in interest income. In comparison, we experienced other expenses of $12,473 for the three months ended August 31, 2008. Other expenses for this period consisted mainly of $18,895 in losses from currency hedging transactions.
We had net income of $127,470 for the three months ended August 31, 2009, compared with net income of $77,085 for the three months ended August 31, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As at August 31, 2009, we had $827,783 in current assets and $83,349 in current liabilities. On August 31, 2009, we had working capital of $744,434.
Operating activities provided $189,579 in cash for the three months ended August 31, 2009. Our net income of $127,470, along with depreciation of $12,317, deferred income tax of $50,000 and accrued income tax of $14,000 were the primary components of our positive operating cash flow, offset mainly by accounts receivable of $25,518. Cash flows provided by investing activities during the three months ended August 31, 2009 was $47,843 mainly as a result of $78,050 from a change in investment in marketable securities, offset by $25,062 from the sale of property and equipment. Cash flows provided by financing activities during the three months ended August 31, 2009 was $54,483, largely as a result of $61,178 from the sale of treasury stock.
Currently, our primary source of liquidity is cash flows provided by our operations. We will not require additional capital to execute our plan, unless we expand into additional facilities or grow through the acquisition of complementary businesses. Our current cash flows from operations are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of August 31, 2009. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Christopher Johns, and our Chief Financial Officer, Michael C. Palasick. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of August 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended August 31, 2009.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
