(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2011
NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Organization and Business
The Company was incorporated under the laws of Colorado on August 9, 2002. The Company was formed to develop a software program to centralize the booking of recreational and vacation activities. The Company’s initial capital proved insufficient to complete its planned business and the project was abandoned in 2003 when the Company ceased such business operations.
Subsequently, the Company undertook to operate as a business that would provide unclaimed property location services to the public and businesses by obtaining information regarding lost or forgotten estates, unclaimed assets and/or financial belongings. However, the Company has since abandoned such operations. Management is currently evaluating possible business plans for operation of the Company in the future.
On November 29, 2010, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “November 2010 SPA”) with a former officer, Director and its largest shareholder, Ms. Hasmik Yaghobyan (875,000 shares), another former officer and Director, Mr. Osheen Haghnzarian (380,000 shares), and Halter Capital Corporation, a Texas corporation (“Halter Capital”), pursuant to which Halter Capital acquired all shares of Company common stock held by Ms. Yaghobyan and Mr. Haghnzarian (1,255,000 shares), representing approximately 83.7% of all shares outstanding at the time, and as a result of the sale the Company experienced a change in control. The purchase price of the shares was $331,250, paid in cash from the purchaser's existing funds.
The November 2010 SPA provided for the resignation of Ms. Yaghobyan and Mr. Haghnzarian, as directors and officers of the Company. The board of directors appointed Mr. Kevin B. Halter, Jr. as the Company’s new President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer and sole Director, effective December 9, 2010.
On December 30, 2010, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “December 2010 SPA”) with Halter Capital and Bon Amour International, LLC, a Texas limited liability corporation (“Bon Amour”), pursuant to which Bon Amour acquired 1,255,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (representing approximately 83.7% of its then issued and outstanding common stock) from Halter Capital for cash consideration of $370,000. The December 2010 SPA transaction closed on January 6, 2011, and resulted in a change of control of the Company.
Under the terms of the December 2010 SPA, Mr. Halter, the sole director of the Company in office immediately prior to the closing, resigned as the sole director of and from all officer positions held with the Company, effective January 10, 2011. Mr. Nathan Halsey was appointed to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors effective January 10, 2011. Mr. Halsey appointed himself President, Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company subsequent to the effectiveness of his appointment as sole director.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2011
NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS (continued)
With the approval of the Company's Board of Directors and a majority of its shareholders, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation effective March 9, 2011 (the "Amendment"). The Amendment effected a change in the Company’s capital structure and authorized shareholder action by less than unanimous consent without a meeting. Prior to the Amendment, the Company was authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, without par value ("Common Stock"). The Amendment authorized the Company to issue 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
On March 10, 2011 the Company executed a 133 for 1 forward split of its issued and outstanding Common Stock affected in the form of a stock dividend. As a result of the forward split, the Company issued 198,000,000 additional shares to its shareholders of record on March 10, 2011. All references herein to share information have been retroactively applied unless otherwise stated. See Note D - Capital Stock.
The Company's Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Market Groups, Inc. OTCQB under the symbol "VTUR."
Development Stage Activities
The Company is presently in the development stage with no significant revenues from operations. Accordingly, all of the Company’s operating results and cash flows reported in the accompanying financial statements are considered to be those related to development stage activities and represent the cumulative from inception amounts from its development stage activities reported pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915-10-05, Development Stage Entities.
Basis of presentation and going concern uncertainty
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern, dependent upon the Company's ability, among other matters, to establish itself as a profitable business. At September 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $207,726 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred losses of $159,970.
The Company’s ability to continue in business is dependent upon obtaining sufficient financing or attaining profitable operations. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations, and therefore, these matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties, nor do they include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2011
NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any other financial instruments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with guidance issued by FASB and ASC, which requires 1) evidence of an agreement, 2) delivery of the product or services, 3) at a fixed or determinable price, and 4) assurance of collection within a reasonable period of time.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effect of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences for financial and income tax reporting related to net operating losses that are available to offset future federal and state income taxes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, the most recent of which was Accounting Standards Update 2011-09, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We urge you to read the following discussion in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as well as with our condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere herein.
CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Our prospects are subject to uncertainties and risks. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we make forward-looking statements in this Item 2 and elsewhere that also involve substantial uncertainties and risks. These forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations, estimates and projections about our business, and reflect our beliefs and assumptions based upon information available to us at the date of this report. In some cases, you can identify these statements by words such as “if,” “may,” “might,” “will, “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and other similar terms. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, plans for proposed operations, descriptions of our strategies, our product and market development plans, and other objectives, expectations and intentions, the trends we anticipate in our business and the markets in which we operate, and the competitive nature and anticipated growth of those markets.
We caution readers that forward-looking statements are predictions based on our current expectations about future events. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited, to the risks and uncertainties discussed in our other filings with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any reason.
Overview
We are currently a shell company as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). However, subsequent to the change of control that occurred upon acquisition of a majority of our issued and outstanding Common Stock by Bon Amour International, LLC (“Bon Amour”) in January 2011, we began evaluating various plans of operation. Management is currently working with Bon Amour to negotiate an agreement to acquire the rights to utilize Bon Amour trademarks (which include the name “Bonamour”) and manufacture proprietary, Bonamour branded, age-defying consumer products such as skin care products and nutritionals for resale.
In furtherance of our plans to manufacture and sell Bon Amour branded products, the Company has filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporaiton that effect a change of the Company’s name to Bonamour, Inc., that will become effective November 20, 2011.
Our principal office is located at 5190 N. Central Expressway, Suite 900, Dallas, Texas 75206-5141 and our telephone number is (214) 855-0808.
Basis of Presentation of Financial Information
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company's ability to establish itself as a profitable business. At September 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $207,726, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, incurred net losses of $159,970 and $4,236, respectively. Management expects that the Company will need to raise additional capital to commence and sustain operations until such time as the Company can achieve profitability. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations.
The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no changes from the Critical Accounting Policies described in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 30, 2011.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Although the Company began its operations in 2002, it has yet to attain a level of operations which allows it to meet its current overhead. We do not contemplate attaining profitable operations until after management executes its plans to acquire rights to the manufacture and sell of Bon Amour products, and manufacture and sales operations are commenced. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that management will be able ot successfully implement such plans and if executed, there can be no assurance that operating levels sufficient to sustain profitability can ever be achieved. We expect to be dependent upon obtaining additional financing in order to adequately fund working capital, infrastructure and expenses in order to execute plans for future operations, so that we can achieve a level of revenue adequate to support our cost structure, none of which can be assured. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s cash balance was $100 and we had liabilities totaling $177,945, which include approximately $155,439 of related party loans. At September 30, 2011 the Company’s working capital deficit was $173,720.
Since the change in control that occurred in January 2011, Bon Amour, the Company’s majority shareholder, has advanced funds on behalf of the Company to satisfy current legal, accounting and administrative obligations.
Management expects that the Company will need to raise additional capital to commence and sustain operations until such time as the Company can implement its plan of future operation and achieve profitability. The terms of financing that may be raised may not be on terms acceptable by the Company. If adequate funds cannot be raised outside of the Company, the Company’s current shareholders may need to contribute additional funds to sustain operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our Company is a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and as such, is not required to provide the information required under this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Nathan Halsey, our principal executive and financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2011, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the appropriate management on a basis that permits timely decisions regarding disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's principal executive and financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2011 were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our third quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our disclosure controls and procedures provide our principal executive and financial officer with reasonable assurances that our disclosure controls and procedures will achieve their objectives. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting can or will prevent all human error. A control system, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Furthermore, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are internal resource constraints, and the benefit of controls must be weighed relative to their corresponding costs. Because of the limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide complete assurance that all control issues and instances of error, if any, within our company are detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur due to human error or mistake. Additionally, controls, no matter how well designed, could be circumvented by the individual acts of specific persons within the organization. The design of any system of controls is also 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 objectives under all potential future conditions.
Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the fact that the Company only has one director and executive officer dealing with general administrative and financial matters. This constitutes a significant deficiency in the internal controls. Management has decided that considering the officer/director involved, the control procedures in place, and the outsourcing of certain financial functions, the risks associated with such lack of segregation were low and the potential benefits of adding additional employees to clearly segregate duties did not justify the expenses associated with such increases. Management plans to re-evaluate this situation periodically. In light of the Company’s current cash flow situation, the Company does not intend to increase staffing to mitigate the current lack of segregation of duties within the general administrative and financial functions.
