NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization of Business
Arcis Resources Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 27, 2008 under the name “Mountain Renewables, Inc.” Effective on November 15, 2010, the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation. The amendment changed the name of the corporation to “Arcis Resources Corporation.”
On September 22, 2010, the Company acquired all of the membership interest in Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (“GCED”), and all of the outstanding common stock of ARCIS Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ARCIS”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into by these parties on July 21, 2010. The acquisition is referred to herein as the “Share Exchange.” GCED and ARCIS will be engaged in the business of acquiring, trading and distributing fuel oil and other petroleum products.
In exchange for 100% of the membership interest in ARCIS the Company issued to GSA International Group, Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation (“GSAI”), 11,000,000 shares of its common stock. The Company issued 2,200,000 shares of common stock to Kenneth Allen Flatt, Jr. and Activa Transportation Services, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (“Activa”), for their 100% membership interest in GCED.
The Company has authorized capital stock of 200,000,000 capital shares, consisting of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value. Before the Share Exchange, there were 13,615,000 shares outstanding, of which Bristlecone Associates, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“Bristlecone”), hel,d 6,000,000 (44.0%) and Richard Giannotti owned 4,030,000 shares (29.6%). As a condition to the Share Exchange, Bristlecone surrendered 4,500,000 shares and Mr. Giannotti surrendered 3,500,000 shares, reducing the outstanding shares to 5,615,000. Immediately after the Share Exchange, there were 18,815,000 shares outstanding, of which Bristlecone held 1,500,000 shares (8.0%) and Mr. Giannotti held 530,000 shares (2.8%). The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger under the purchase method of accounting since there was a change of control. Accordingly, GCED will be treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes.
On July 15, 2011 the company acquired all the membership interest of American Plant Services, LLC, (“APS”) an Alabama limited liability company, and all the outstanding shares of APS’s subsidiary Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. (“MFR”), an Ohio corporation. The Company issued 9,800,000 shares to the prior owners of APS and MFR. The Company also issued Notes totaling $500,000. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Soon after the acquisition, management determined that APS could not be operated profitably, due to the constraints imposed by its debt load. Accordingly, the operations of APS were terminated and that subsidiary will be treated as a discontinued operation. MFR provides solvent rag and absorbent recycling services to various industries using a patent protected process for recovering oil-based fluids from sorbent articles containing oil-based fluids.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Arcis Energy, Inc., Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC, Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. and American Plant Services, LLC. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
ARCIS RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Basis of Presentation
The accompany unaudited interim financial statements of the Company 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 of Arcis Resources Corporation and related notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on April 15, 2011. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented 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.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting 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 periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Net Loss per Share
ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Net Loss per Share (Continued)
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. The Company has outstanding common stock purchase warrants; however, inclusion of the warrants in the calculation of diluted loss per share would be anti-dilutive. Therefore, diluted loss per share is equivalent to basic loss per share.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in deposits and all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Sales and service revenue is recognized at the date of shipment, or completion of services rendered, to a customer when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery or service is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as customer deposits.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Trade receivables are non-interest bearing, uncollateralized customer obligations and are stated at the amounts billed to customers. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the collectability of accounts receivable. Management specifically analyzes historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 for continuing operations were both $0.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired as follows:
Building | 39 years |
Computer equipment | 3-5 years |
Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years |
Machinery and equipment | 5-10 years |
Trucks and automobiles | 5 years |
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance that do not extend the useful lives of the related assets are expensed as incurred. Depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $7,100.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of $320,840 during the three months ended September 30, 2011, and a loss from continuing operations of $508,392 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. In addition, the Company had a shareholders equity deficit of $849,144 at September 30, 2011, as well as a working capital deficit of $7,490,275, which including a working capital of continuing operations deficit of $1,203,148 These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management plans to raise additional proceeds from debt and equity transactions and to continue to increase its sales and marketing activities. There is no guarantee, however, that management will be able to secure sufficient financing to sustain the operations of the Company or that operations will become self-sustaining. In the absence of one of those accomplishments, the Company would likely be forced to liquidate. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Business Combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and the financial statements include the results of the acquired operations from the respective dates they were acquired.
The purchase price of the acquired entities is allocated to the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value at the dates of acquisition, with any excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, including intangibles, recognized as goodwill. The balances included in the consolidated balance sheets related to recent acquisitions are based upon preliminary information and are subject to change when final asset and liability valuations are obtained. Material changes to the preliminary allocations are not anticipated by management.
Fair Value Measurements
The FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification defines fair value as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in the following three categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active or inactive markets and valuations derived from models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in any market.

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities. The carrying values of the Company’s notes payable approximate their fair values based upon a comparison of the interest rate and terms of such debt given the level of risk to the rates and terms of similar debt currently available to the Company in the marketplace.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 - Stockholders' Equity
The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock. Dividends may be paid on outstanding shares as declared by the Board of Directors. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.
During the three month period and nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued a total of 10,231,000 shares of common stock:
| · | 9,800,000 shares were issued in exchange for the equity in APS and valued at $51,048; |
| · | 390,000 shares were issued for services and valued at $2,700; |
| · | 41,000 shares were issued in satisfaction of subscriptions made in 2010 for cash of $108,700. |
The Company also issued a five year warrant to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock for $1.00 per share in connection with a sale of Convertible Notes (Noe 5).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company received $50,000 for its common stock. The stock has not yet been issued, and, accordingly, is a liability on the balance sheet as "Capital Stock to be Issued".
Note 3 – Business Combination
On July 15, 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. (MFR) and all the membership interest in American Plant Services (APS). Both entities will be accounted for as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. MFR provides solvent rag and absorbent recycling services to various industries. APS was in the industrial services industry. At the time of acquisition it was determined to cease the operations of APS and begin an orderly liquidation of its assets and liabilities. APS will be accounted for in the consolidated statements of the Company as a discontinued operation. The Company paid 9,800,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.001, and issued Notes totaling $500,000 to the shareholders and members of MFR and APS. The total value of the capital stock and Notes Payable involved in the transaction acquiring the net assets of MFR and APS was $551,048.

Note 3 – Business Combination (Continued)
The Company is in the process of determining its allocation of the purchase price to individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed as a result of the acquisitions of American Plant Services, LLC and Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. This may result in potential adjustments to the carrying value of their respective recorded assets and liabilities, the establishment of certain additional intangible assets, revisions of useful lives of intangible assets, some of which will have indefinite lives not subject to amortization, and the determination of any residual amount that will be allocated to goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price included in the current period balance sheet is based on the best estimates of management and is subject to revision based on final determination of asset fair values and useful lives.

Note 4 - Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method as stipulated by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary difference between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
As a result of the Company incurring net losses, an income tax benefit in the form of net operating loss carry-forwards have been generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the prior years ended December 31, 2010.
The potential future benefit from income taxes arising from operations for the nine month period ending September 30, 2011 and 2010 consist of the following:

Note 4 - Income Taxes (Continued)
The Company’s net deferred tax assets consist primarily of net operating loss carry-forwards. At September 30, 2011, the Company had federal net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $1,060,000, which may be used to offset future taxable income. These net operating loss carry-forwards expire over various years through 2025. The net operating loss carryforwards may be limited under the Change of Control provisions of the Internal Revenue Code section 382. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has determined that due to the uncertainty regarding its future profitability, a full valuation allowance is required for deferred tax assets. Net deferred tax assets and liabilities are comprised of the following as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 10- Stock-Based Compensation
There were options to purchase 2,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2011. All of the options were issued in July and August of 2011. Of the total, 2,500,000 options have been issued to current officers and directors and 300,000 options were issued to a former officer/director of the Company. The fair value of stock options was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
Expected life | | 5.0 years |
Expected volatility | | 75.88% |
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.46% |
Expected dividend yield | | 0.00% |
The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Five year T-bill rate. As a result of the minimal trading activity in the Company’s capital stock, the expected volatility for the Company’s stock is calculated by using the average volatility of four comparable companies from the Company’s industry sector. Due to a lack of employee exercise behavior since the options were recently granted, the expected life is based upon the maximum exercise period.

Note 11- Commitments and Contingencies
The Company, relative to its continuing operations is involved in certain litigation and claims arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
The Company, relative to its discontinued operation, currently has one significant case. A bank is suing for collection on a line of credit. The case is in its early stages and no trial date has been established. An ultimate unfavorable ruling to the Company could result in a judgment of up to approximately $850,000, with that number declining as collection of accounts receivable continue as of this date, and reduce the amount owed. Company’s management has determined that the amount of restitution cannot be reasonably estimated and any estimate would be so uncertain as to impair the integrity of these financial statements. Per FASB ASC 450-20-25, recognition of a contingency loss may only be made if the event is (1) probable and (2) the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Since neither threshold is met, no accrual for this contingent loss has been made to these financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements: No Assurances Intended
In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, which are generally identifiable by use of the words “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans to,” “estimates,” “projects,” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements represent Management’s belief as to the future of Arcis Resources, Inc. Whether those beliefs become reality will depend on many factors that are not under Management’s control. Many risks and uncertainties exist that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the Section 1A, titled “Risk Factors”, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements.
Outline of Business
As of September 30, 2011, Arcis Resources Corporation had four subsidiaries:
| · | Arcis Energy Inc. and Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC (“GCED”). Arcis Energy was organized to engage in international fuel trade. GCED was organized to engage in domestic fuel trade, including transfer of oil and refined petroleum products. Both Arcis Energy and GCED will be engaged in the acquisition, sale and trading of the full spectrum of petroleum products, from crude oil refinery feed stocks to refined products, including base oils, biofuels, bunker fuels, fuel oils, gasoil, kerosene/jet fuel, marine gasoil, and diesel motor gas and naphtha, with an emphasis in the mid-distillates markets. Of special note, both companies will be active in both the primary and the reuse markets. The reuse market involves the reclamation of used oil, such as motor oil, through re-refining and sale for reuse for other purposes, such as serving as a base stock for lubricating oil. Arcis Energy will operate internationally, and GCED will trade only within North America. |
| · | Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. (“MFR”) and American Plant Services, LLC (“APS”), which were acquired in July 2011. APS was engaged in the business of providing industrial services. However, soon after the acquisition we determined that it could not be operated profitably. So APS is now in liquidation. MFR utilizes patented recyclable absorbent systems to provided fluid recycling services, including separation of oil and water and reuse of the oil. |
Results of Operations
To date our fuel trading businesses, Arcis Energy and GCED, have produced less than $11,000 in revenue. From July 15, 2011, when it was acquired, through September 30, 2011, APS produced $311,356 in revenue. Because APS is in liquidation, however, all of that revenue is netted against the $672,452 in expenses that APS occurred in that period, resulting in a loss of $361,096 identified by a single line on our Statements of Operations labeled “(loss) income from discontinued operations.” All of the revenue shown recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2011, therefore, is revenue generated by MFR. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 we added only $10,162 to total revenue, which was our revenue from a single domestic fuel trade.
During the period from July 15, 2011, when the Company acquired MFR, to September 30, 2011, the operations of MFR produced $66,662 in revenue and $37,438 in gross income. MFR’s expenses in that same period totaled $64,576, resulting in a net loss from MFR operations of $27,501. Besides payroll, the largest expense incurred by MFR was $7,700 of travel and entertainment. Travel expenses were high during this period because management of MFR is attempting to rapidly expand its operations, which requires repeated visits to industrial sites where MFR’s remediation services can be utilized. We expect to realize the benefit of these expenses in future revenues.
The remainder of our continuing operations (i.e. operations other than APS) incurred $277,927 in expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and $463,314 in expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Those expenses were primarily accrued salaries for management, administrative expenses related to managements efforts to initiate the fuel trade business and obtain financing, as well as professional fees incurred in connection with the Company’s efforts to obtain financing and its ongoing SEC reporting obligations.
In the prior year, during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, we incurred $69,627 and $88,695, respectively, in operating expenses, with only $790 in revenue realized early in 2010. The greater portion of prior year expenses arose from our efforts to become acquired by a public reporting company.
Our continuing operations for the period ended September 30, 2011, then resulted in a loss of $320,840. Combined with the loss from discontinued operations, we recorded a net loss of $681,936, representing $.02 per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our loss from continuing operations was $508,391, and our net loss was $869,488, or $.04 per share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our operations have been funded to date by loans, capital contributions from its members, and the private sale of securities which combined have totaled approximately $355,000 from inception through June 30, 2011.
At September 30, 2011 we had a working capital deficit of $7,490,275. That deficit included APS’ working capital deficit of $6,287,127. Our plan is to settle as much of the APS liabilities by selling the $5,224,194 in APS equipment that remained on our books at September 30, 2011 and seeking compromises with the APS creditors. At this time we cannot determine whether we will be successful in liquidating APS without resorting to the bankruptcy courts.
Excluding APS from our calculation, our continuing operations still had a working capital deficit of $1,203,148 at September 30, 2011. Our ability to implement our business plan, thenm depends on our success in obtaining capital. For that reasons, the opinion of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 expressed that there is substantial doubt as to whether the Company will continue as going concern. While we have no debt payment obligations prior to July 2012, continuation of our operations will depend on the tolerance of our payables creditors until we generate sufficient cash flow to enable us to pay our operating expenses. Achievement of that level of cash flow will, in turn, depend on our ability to obtain the funds necessary to initiate fuel trading operations and to expand the fuel waste remediation operations of MFR.
In order to commence domestic fuel trading operations, GCED will require at least $500,000 to finance the purchase of fuel. We are currently exploring sources for those funds, but have not yet secured a commitment for the necessary financing. Upon receipt of that initial funding, we will be able to engage in trading. Our trading operations, however, will require the full time attention of a number of traders and administrators. The gross profit generated by our initial trading activities is unlikely to be sufficient to cover the direct and indirect costs of these personnel as well as the additional personnel who will be engaged in securing additional financing and developing the relationships necessary in order to expand GCED’s trading operations.
In order to enter into the fuel trading business at a level that can result in net profits for the company, GCED will need at least $10 million in available funds. Our plan is to secure that funding through the sale of debt and/or equity securities, and through joint ventures with investors wishing to participate in the fuel trading business in this fashion. If we are able to secure funding at that level, we will then be able to leverage our equity by using short-term secured debt financing to purchase fuel products for resale. We are currently exploring a number of possible sources for this second level of financing, but have not secured any firm commitment. If we are unable to secure the financing necessary for GCED to become independently viable as a fuel trader, we will limit its operations to providing support for the fuel spill remediation services of its affiliate, MFR - namely, resale of spilled fuel recaptured through the cleanup processes provided by MFR. We believe those services could be provided with only one dedicated GCED employee, and so could yield a modest profit to the overall Company.
Arcis Energy has an available source of credit in its joint venture with Premier Investment Group, Inc. (“PREMI”), which provides that PREMI will make a deposit of one billion Euros to collateralize letters of credit to finance trading of oil and other physical commodities by Arcis Energy. For that reason, we need only a modest amount of capital - several hundred thousand dollars - to provide the working capital that will permit us to initiate Arcis Energy’s operations. We are currently exploring opportunities to secure those funds. Over the long term, however, the profitability of Arcis Energy will depend on our ability to replace the PREMI joint venture with more affordable financing. Under the PREMI arrangement, our costs of financing will include interest at market rate, administrative costs of the letter of credit processing, plus 25% of the gross profits from each transaction - we cannot estimate the total financing cost, since we have no historical record on which to base an expectation of transaction profits, but we anticipate the cost of financing under this arrangement may be twice that paid by our larger competitors.
Our acquisition of APS and MFR in July 2011 has substantially expanded our capital requirements. As a result of that transaction, we will require funds for the following purposes:
| · | Proper marketing of the technological capabilities of Mobile Fluid Recovery will entail a commitment of several million dollars to working capital. |
| · | We have determined that it is in the best interest of the organization to cease the operating activities of APS. That entity is now in liquidation, and we have assumed responsibility for settling its liabilities in an orderly fashion. |
| · | The employment agreements of the four members of our management became effective upon completion of the acquisition. The Company is currently accruing salaries to the four officers at an aggregate rate of $708,000 per annum. If the Company completes a $10 million equity offering or achieves annual net income of $2.5 million, the salary obligation to the four executives will increase to $1,328,000. |
Our efforts to obtain the funding needed for all of these purposes and commitments is ongoing. To date we have obtained no firm commitment for significant funds from any source. If we are unable to obtain the necessary funds, our business operations will not be successful.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2011. Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures that are designed to insure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time limits specified in the Commission’s rules. “Disclosure controls and procedures” include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to insure that information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files with the Commission is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In carrying out that evaluation, management identified a material weakness (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness identified by management consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision within the bookkeeping and accounting operations of our company. The relatively small number of employees who have bookkeeping and accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective as of September 30, 2011 for the purposes described in this paragraph.
Changes in Internal Controls. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act or 1934) that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report, and they have concluded that there was no change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
