NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. BACKGROUND
Azur Holdings, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on August 29, 1985, under the name Harvest Capital Corporation. In August 2000, the Company changed its name to New Harvest Capital Corporation and on December 20, 2005, the Company changed its name to Azur Holdings, Inc. Prior to June 2005 the Company was engaged in the activity of searching for and investigating business opportunities.
On June 1, 2005, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of June 1, 2005 between HVST Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and Azur International, Inc., HVST Acquisition Corporation sold to Azur International 68,960,000 shares of common stock of the Company, constituting approximately 50.4% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The purchase price for the shares was $550,000 paid in cash. By virtue of its acquisition of a majority of the voting securities of the Company on such date, Azur International acquired from HVST Acquisition Corporation control of the Company on June 1, 2005.
On February 14, 2006, the Company entered into and consummated a Share Exchange Agreement acquiring The Grand Shell Landing, Inc., the owner of an 18-hole golf course in Gautier, Mississippi and a master planned resort community. Under the Exchange Agreement, Azur Holdings issued an aggregate of 25,236,773 shares of its Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share, in exchange for 2,000 shares of common stock of Grand Shell Landing, and 7,500 shares of common stock of Azur Shell Landing Resort Inc. held by Azur International. The Company also assumed certain liabilities of Azur International, aggregating approximately $1,530,000. Immediately after the consummation of the Exchange Agreement, Azur International owned an aggregate of 25,287,109 shares of Azur Holdings’ Common Stock, constituting approximately 99.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
B. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting, whereby revenue is recognized when earned and expenses when incurred.
C. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include accounts of Azur Holdings and its subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions have been eliminated. The following is a list of subsidiaries and their respective controlling interests by the Company:
The Grand Shell Landing, Inc. - 100%
Azur Construction and Development, LLC - 50%
Azur Shell Landing Resort, Inc. - 75%
D. REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS
Real estate investments are stated at the lower of cost or market. Acquisition costs are allocated to respective properties based on appraisals of the various properties acquired in the acquisition.
E. 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

F. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand; cash in banks and any highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company and its subsidiaries maintain cash and cash equivalent balances at several financial institutions, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.
G. CONCENTRATION OF RISK
At times the cash and cash equivalent balances in financials institutions exceed the federally insured limits. The total
balance at risk is $266,889 at July 31, 2006.
The majority of the assets owned by the Company, including land for resale, as well as the real estate development, are projects that are concentrated in the Mississippi area.
H. LEASES
Leases that transfer substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership are accounted for as capital leases. Other leases are operating leases that are expensed over the terms of the lease using the straight line method. Capital leases are included in property and equipment and are amortized using the same methods as used for depreciation of property and equipment.
I. INVENTORY
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory for Grand Shell Landing totaling $60,067 at July 31, 2006, consists of food and beverages items, apparel and equipment sold at the pro shop.
J. EARNINGS/LOSS PER SHARE
Primary earnings per common share are computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. The average number of shares used for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005 were 27,939,615 and 130,659,999, respectively. The resulting loss for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005 were $0.07 per share and $0.00 per share respectively.
K. INCOME TAXES
In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards 109 of "Accounting for Income Taxes."

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
Although the management of the Company has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, the Company has adopted the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. As of July 31, 2006, the Company has accumulated losses of $4,642,482 and had a negative working capital position of $7,033,698. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, to receive continued support of the Company’s shareholders, and ultimately to obtain successful operations.

NOTE 22 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 151, Inventory Costs, which clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have a material impact on our financial statements.
In December 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, which eliminates the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 will be effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material impact on our financial statements.
In December 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (R) Share-Based Payment, which establishes standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This standard requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. This eliminates the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable under APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123 (R) will be effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005. We believe SFAS No. 123(R) has a material impact on financial statements at the time as options are issued.
In February 2006 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 155 ("SFAS No 155"), "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments: An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140". Management does not believe that this statement will have a significant impact on the Company.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
Azur Holdings, Inc., formerly known as New Harvest Capital Corporation, is a real estate holding company with operations in the United States. Our business plan includes golf resort and residential communities development, residential and commercial land acquisition for development, acquisition of developable land holdings for use or future sale, acquisition of existing resort and golf club communities and acquisition of companies in complementary industries.
Since being acquired by Azur International, Inc. (“Azur International”) on June 1, 2005, Azur Holdings, Inc. (“Azur Holdings,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) has assembled a management team, researched resort and commercial locations, completed extensive marketing research, and entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Azur International. Under the Exchange Agreement, we issued 25,236,773 shares of common stock to Azur International in exchange for 100% of the common stock of The Grand Shell Landing Golf course in Gautier, Mississippi, and 75% of the common stock of Azur Shell Landing Resort, Inc, which is a master planned resort community of approximately 800 acres.
The year 2006 is effectively Azur Holdings’ initial year of significant operations in the real estate industry, much of which was spent on organizational and administrative matters, as well as closing agreements relating to the acquisition of interests in the above mentioned entities.
Given that Azur Shell Landing Resort was a company organized in 2005, this analysis will concentrate on assessing the financial condition and results of operations of The Grand Shell Landing Golf Course, which prior to the execution of the Exchange Agreement, had been wholly owned by Azur International since November of 2004.
Results of Operations
Three months ended July 31, 2006
Revenue and Gross Profit
For the three months ended July 31, 2006, the Company generated revenues of $356,802, which consisted mainly of golf course revenue of $354,687.
Golf course revenues are primarily derived from daily greens fees, For the three months ended July 31, 2006 green fees accounted for $126,899 of golf course revenue.
Additional revenues of approximately $106,912 were derived from cart rentals.
Sales of real estate are comprised of lots sold in the resort real estate business. There were no lot sales for the 3 months ended July 31, 2006
Cost of Operations
Total cost of operations were $44,900 for the three months ended July 31, 2006, and include inventory costs for retail items sold at the golf course club house.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses were $1,369,679 for the three months ended July 31, 2006, and were comprised primarily of: golf-related expenses of $437,661, resort real-estate expenses of $188,434 and corporate overhead of $743,584.
Depreciation and Amortization
Total depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended July 31, 2006 were $86,607 and $476,138 respectively. The majority of the amortization costs of $467,136 were due to the loan and land acquisition costs associated with the resort property.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended July 31, 2006 totaled $607,271. Debt associated with the golf course operations accounted for $155,205 and land development costs relating to resort operations accounted for the remaining $452,066
Net Loss
For the three months ended July 31, 2006, the Company experienced a net loss of $1,900,473 which included losses of $892,884 from Azur Shell Landing Resort operations, $267,125 from the golf course and $740,464 from the holding company’s operations. The net loss reflects the early stage of our business and the associated costs incurred in connection with acquisition activities, including loan costs and pre-development expenditures. Also, the loss from the golf course operations is due to the reduction in revenues and additional costs incurred during the recovery from the Hurricane Katrina, which hit the Mississippi area in August of 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At July 31, 2006 we had a net working capital deficit of $7,033,698. Included in liabilities are notes payable totaling in excess of $4,166,700 which come due on or before August 1, 2007. Please refer to the schedule of maturities shown below for additional details regarding the maturities of our long-term debt and security interest that have been granted in connection with those obligations.
Management is currently pursuing multiple financing alternatives with respect to satisfying these obligations, including (a) raising additional equity capital and (b) restructuring the terms of existing debt obligations. There can be no assurance, however, that such additional funds will be available, or, if available, available on commercially acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise capital and renegotiate terms of existing debt we may be forced into a substantial liquidation of assets, which may occur on terms unfavorable to us and may foreclose future growth opportunities.
On March 8, 2006 we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Graybrick Partners I, LLC. Pursuant to this agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Graybrick Partners committed to purchase up to $3,000,000 of our common stock in 15 tranches of $200,000 per tranche on or before March 31, 2007. One of the closing conditions was that a registration statement pertaining to the resale of the shares be declared effective prior to September 30, 2006. Because such closing condition will not be satisfied, we will not be able to make any sale of our common stock pursuant to the agreement.
There are other factors and risks that could impair our ability to meet current obligations in the future. A significant portion of our expected future cash inflows are dependent upon successfully completing and closing sales on the various condominium development projects that are now planned or underway. These expected cash inflows will not occur until construction is complete and we have closed on the sales of the individual units to the purchasers. As such, our revenues are collected at very irregular intervals and we are required to fund substantial receivables during the construction period.
The consummation of the Share Exchange Agreement (see introduction), where we acquired 100% interest in the golf course and 75% interest in the resort property, has afforded us the opportunity to pursue significant real estate development projects well into the future. However, our ability to raise the funds we need in order to pursue these opportunities is not assured and may become more difficult if interest rates continue to rise, if a major natural disaster were to hit the area, or if investors begin to perceive real estate prices to have risen beyond the point where attractive future returns are possible.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.
At the conclusion of the period ended July 31, 2006, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, President and General Counsel, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, President and General Counsel concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in alerting them in a timely manner to information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in this report but adopted additional disclosure controls and procedures to improve the quality and timeliness of disclosure during our transition from a private to a public company.
