NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2009
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Liberto, Inc. (“Liberto”) is a development stage company and was incorporated in Nevada on November 8, 2007. The Company is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing, and selling artificial lobster meat (the “Product”) specifically for major food retailers in Southeast Asia. Liberto operates out of office space owned by a director and stockholder of the Company. The facilities are provided at no charge. There can be no assurances that the facilities will continue to be provided at no charge in the future.
Development Stage Company
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles related to development-stage companies. A development-stage compnay is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s registration statement filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order for the financial statements to be not misleading have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2008 as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Liberto considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had $-0- of cash.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Liberto’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and amounts due to officer. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2009
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Liberto 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.
NOTE 2 – DUE TO OFFICER
Due to officer at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 consisted of amounts owed to an officer of the company for amounts advanced for working capital to pay for professional services provided by the Company’s outside independent auditors for services rendered for periods ending on and prior to September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The amount is unsecured, due upon demand, and non-interest bearing.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2009
NOTE 3 – INCOME TAXES
For the periods ended September 30, 2009, Liberto has incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $55,000 at September 30, 2009, and will expire beginning in the year 2027.
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:
| 2009 |
Deferred tax asset attributable to: | |
Net operating loss carryover | $ 18,700 |
Valuation allowance | (18,700) |
Net deferred tax asset | $ - |
NOTE 4 – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
Liberto has negative working capital, has incurred operating losses since inception, and has not yet received revenues from sales of products or services. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The ability of Liberto to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from the sale of its common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling its equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund its capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.
NOTE 5 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to September 30, 2009 through October 30, 2009 and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these financial statements.
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 are engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing, and selling imitation lobster meat made from ground fish fillet, shrimp meat, crab meat, potato starch, sodium alginate, egg, lobster flavor, S.M.G., sugar, and salt, which we will produce specifically for major food retailers in Southeast Asia (our "Product"). We intend that our Product will allow food retailers to offer a more economical alternative to costly real lobster meat presently sold in the Southeast Asian market. We are currently in the process of designing and developing our Product formula. We are continually refining this formula through experiments, testing different ingredients and percentage ratios.
When we are satisfied that our Product will compete effectively in the Surimi Industry by being the best tasting and most economical imitation lobster meat, we will begin the manufacture and distribution of the Product to food retailers.
Our principal executive offices are located at 50 West Liberty Street, Suite 880, Reno, NV 89501. Our telephone number is 63-920-938-0830. Our operations office is located at Lot 7B Blk 7 Emerald St., Gold Riverville Subd. Burgos, Montalban, Rizal, the Philippines.
Significant Equipment
We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment for the next twelve months.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and Period from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) until September 30, 2009
We generated no revenue for the period from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) until September 30, 2009. We do not anticipate revenues until we have completed our Product and have successfully sold it in the market.
Our Operating Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $2,000, as compared with $2,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Our Operating Expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $6,000, as compared with $41,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Our Operating Expenses from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) to September 30, 2009 were $55,000. For each period our Operating Expenses consisting entirely of Professional Fees. Our operating expenses were significantly greater in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 than in the same period 2009 as a result of fees associated with filing our registration statement with the SEC.
We, therefore, recorded a net loss of $2,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with $2,000 for the same period ended September 30, 2008. We recorded a net loss of $6,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared with $41,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. We recorded a net loss of $55,000 for the period from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) until September 30, 2009.
We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we undertake our plan of operations. The increase will be attributable to the continued development of our Product and the professional fees associated with being a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2009, we had no current assets and $12,000 in current liabilities. Thus, we had a working capital deficit of $12,000 as of September 30, 2009. We owe $12,000 to our officer and director for amounts advanced for our working capital needs. The amount is unsecured, due upon demand, and non-interest bearing.
Operating activities used $55,000 in cash for the period from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) until September 30, 2009. Our net loss of $55,000 was the sole factor of our negative operating cash flow. Financing Activities during the period from November 8, 2007 (Date of Inception) until September 30, 2009 generated $55,000 in cash during the period, which included $43,000 from the sale of stock and $12,000 as proceeds of a loan from our officer and director.
As of September 30, 2009, we have insufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months and insufficient cash to achieve our business goals. The success of our business plan beyond the next 12 months is contingent upon us obtaining additional financing. We intend to fund operations through debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital, or other cash requirements. We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.
Going Concern
We have a negative working capital and have not yet received revenues from sales of products. These factors have caused our accountants to express substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our generating cash from the sale of our common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling our equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund our capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance we will be successful in these efforts.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2009, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
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 September 30, 2009. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, Rosielyn S. Baclig. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 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.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

None
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
None
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matters have been submitted to our security holders for a vote, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise, during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2009.
