Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at November 30, 2009 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's May 31, 2009 audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended November 30, 2009 and November 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has had no revenues and has generated losses from operations.
The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $652,183. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to address the going concern issue by funding future operations through the sale of equity capital and by director loans, if needed.
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is May 31. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary SunSi Energies Hong Kong Ltd., which had no activity through November 30, 2009 other than incorporation, legal fees and start-up costs.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The company’s operations are in Canada and virtually all of its assets are giving rise to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

Financial Statements
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash. Cash is deposited with a high quality credit institution.
Income Taxes
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740 as of its inception. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in the financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is a development stage entity and has not recognized any revenues since inception. The Company is in the process of acquiring a facility in China that produces trichlorosilane (TCS) and certain byproducts. In the event this acquisition is successfully consummated the Company will generate revenues from the sales of TCS and certain by products. Revenue will be recognized when all of the following elements are satisfied (i) there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance;(ii) there is persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; (iii) delivery has occurred; (iv) legal title to the products has transferred to the customer; (v) the sales price is fixed or determinable; and (vi) collectability is reasonably assured.

NOTE 5 ADVANCES PAYABLE
During the period from June 1, 2009 to November 30, 2009 the Company received advances amounting to $265,561 from two non-affliate stockholders to help fund the operations of the Company until proceeds were received from the Company’s stock Offering. See notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 7 Stockholders’ Equity, and Note 11 Subsequent Events. The advances were made to the Company on an interest free basis. Therefore no interest has been accrued in the Company’s financial statements. These advances are expected to be repaid in the first quarter of 2010.
NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has incurred a net operating loss of $652,183, which expires in 2029. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
The components of the net deferred tax asset at November 30, 2009, the statutory tax rate, the effective tax rate and the elected amount of the valuation allowance are indicated below:

Net Deferred Tax Asset | | | — | |
The Company follows the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in FASB ASC 740-10-65-1. The Company recognized approximately no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company has no tax positions at November 30, 2009 and 2008 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. No such interest or penalties were recognized during the periods presented. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at November 30, 2009 or 2008.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this quarterly report, 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
The Company is in the business of acquiring TCS production facilities and distribution rights in China. SunSi aims to acquire and develop a portfolio of high quality TCS producing facilities that are strategically located and possess a potential for future growth and expansion. TCS is the main feedstock of the solar energy industry, used in the production of silicon, which in turn is used in the production of solar photovoltaic (PV) energy producing panels.
Acquisition of TCS Production Facilities
The Company plans to base its Asian operations through its 100% owned subsidiary SunSi Energies Hong Kong, Inc., a Hong Kong-based company (“SunSi HK”) which currently has no operations but has entered into a joint venture agreement to purchase 90% of Zibo Baoyun Chemical Plant (“ZBC”) in Zibo, China, a major TCS producer, as well as its related transportation company, the Zibo Baoxin Transportation Co Ltd. (“ZBT”), which transports the finished TCS product from the ZBC TCS manufacturing facility to clients across China. The ZBC facility in Zibo currently has a production capacity of 25,000 metric tons (MT) of TCS annually.
The terms of the joint venture agreement require the Company to raise and pay $10,000,000 for the acquisition of the ZBC and ZBT assets and to expand the current ZBC production capacity to 45,000 MT of TCS.
Additionally, the Company intends to raise an additional $6,000,000 to make other potential TCS manufacturing facility acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
Zibo Baoyun Chemical Plant
ZBC was founded in February 2003 and has a current production capacity of 25,000 MT of TCS per year. TCS is the key feedstock for almost all PV solar cells and modules produced today (over 90% in 2008).
While we do not have complete assurance that we will not encounter issues that would make the ZBC acquisition unsuitable for our strategy, we feel that ZBC’s assets satisfy most or all of the criteria we have established. If we encounter insurmountable issues in the ZBC acquisition, our board of directors will pursue the acquisition of different TCS manufacturing facilities, which may include multiple smaller TCS manufacturing facilities instead of one larger facility at a single location, or the ZBC facility.
ZBT: Transportation and Delivery
In addition to the planned acquisition of ZBC, we intend to acquire ZBT, a transportation company which transports the finished product from the ZBC chemical facility to clients across China. With a total capacity of over 160 tons, ZBT’s fleet includes over 25 vehicles, 5 of which are heavy loading equipment. ZBT holds special permits and licenses to transport dangerous goods within China. If acquired, we plan on growing the ZBT fleet of vehicles to deliver the additional TCS produced by the new expansion facility.
ZBC Distribution Rights
As the Company proceeds to meet the conditions to close the acquisition of ZBC, on December 12, 2009, SunSi HK entered into an Exclusive Distribution Framework Agreement with Zibo Baokai Commerce and Trade Co., Ltd. and ZBC. Pursuant to the terms of the transaction, SunSi HK will be the exclusive distributor of ZBC Baoyun Chemical Plant’s trichlorisane production for sales outside of the People’s Republic of China for an initial period of 18 months with a subsequent 18 months term available at SunSi HK’s option.
Results of Operations for the Three Months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008
Revenues.
We did not earn any revenues for the three months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, or from inception through the period ending November 30, 2009. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time that we are able to acquire TCS manufacturing facilities and begin our planned business of producing and selling TCS.

We incurred operating expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008 in the amounts of $277,881 and $6,563 respectively. Operating expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2009 included general and administrative expenses in the amount of $2,549 and professional fees expenses in the amount of $275,332. Operating expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2008 included general and administrative expenses in the amount of $6,563. The increase in operating expenses from 2008 to 2009 is attributable to the increased cost of locating and conducting due diligence on TCS manufacturing facilities for acquisition, as compared with the operating expenses required by our previous business plan of maintaining an option for claims in the mineral mining industry.
Net (Loss).
We incurred a net loss for the three months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008 in the amounts of $277,881 and $6,563, respectively. Our losses for all periods are attributable to operating expenses and our lack of revenue.

Revenues.
We did not earn any revenues for the six months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, or from inception through the period ending November 30, 2009. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time that we are able to acquire TCS manufacturing facilities and begin our planned business of producing and selling TCS.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and other commitments in the normal course of business.
As of November 30, 2009, we had cash of $526,032 as our only current asset and current liabilities of $501,639. We therefore had a working capital of $24,393 as of November 30, 2009.
The Company is pre-revenue and therefore to implement its business plan of acquiring TCS manufacturing facilities it will need to raise capital. The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity, along with cash expected to be generated from the issuance of debt and/or equity securities, will be sufficient to fund its operations, anticipated capital expenditures, working capital and other financing requirements through May 31, 2010. In order to fund capital expenditures or increase working capital above the current plan, or complete any acquisitions, the Company may seek to obtain additional debt or equity financing. It may also need to obtain additional debt or equity financing if it experiences downturns or cyclical fluctuations in its business that are more severe or longer than anticipated, or if the Company fails to achieve anticipated revenue, experiences significant increases in the costs associated with products sales, or if it engages in additional strategic transactions. However, the Company cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to it on favorable terms, or at all. If, after utilizing the existing sources of capital available to the Company, further capital needs are identified and the Company is not successful in obtaining the financing, it may be forced to curtail its planned future operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of 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 the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our management periodically evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions.
The methods, estimates, and judgment we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. The SEC has defined "critical accounting policies" as those accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and require us to make our most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based upon this definition, our most critical estimates are described below. We also have other key accounting estimates and policies, but we believe that these other policies either do not generally require us to make estimates and judgments that are as difficult or as subjective, or it is less likely that they would have a material impact on our reported results of operations for a given period. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available, and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is May 31. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary SunSi Energies Hong Kong Ltd., which had no activity through November 30, 2009 other than incorporation, legal fees and start-up costs.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The company’s operations are in Canada and virtually all of its assets are giving rise to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash. Cash is deposited with a high quality credit institution.
Income Taxes
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740 as of its inception. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in the financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is a development stage entity and has not recognized any revenues since inception. The Company is in the process of acquiring a facility in China that produces trichlorosilane (TCS) and certain byproducts. In the event this acquisition is successfully consummated the Company will generate revenues from the sales of TCS and certain by products. Revenue will be recognized when all of the following elements are satisfied (i) there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance;(ii) there is persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; (iii) delivery has occurred; (iv) legal title to the products has transferred to the customer; (v) the sales price is fixed or determinable; and (vi) collectability is reasonably assured.

As of November 30, 2009, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.
