USCorp
(an Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Nine Month Ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009
1. Organization of the Company and Significant Accounting Principles
USCorp (the “Company”) is a publicly held corporation formed in May 1989 in the state of Nevada. In April 2002 the Company acquired US Metals, Inc. (“USMetals”), a Nevada corporation, by issuing 24,200,000 shares of common stock. US Metals became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Company owns the mineral rights to 172 Lode and Placer Mining Claims in the Eureka Mining District of Yavapai County, Arizona, called the Twin Peaks Project; and owns the mineral rights to 235 Lode and Placer Claims on five properties in the Mesquite Mining District of Imperial County, California, which the Company collectively refers to as the Picacho Salton Project.
The Company has no revenues to date and has defined itself as an “exploration stage” company.
Exploration Stage Company- the Company has no operations or revenues since its inception and therefore qualifies for treatment as an Exploration Stage company as per Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7. As per SFAS No.7, financial transactions are accounted for as per generally accepted accounted principles. Costs incurred during the development stage are accumulated in “accumulated deficit- exploration stage” and are reported in the Stockholders’ Equity section of the balance sheet.
Consolidation- the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant inter-company balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates- The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses at the date of the financial statements and for the period they include. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and interest bearing deposits- For the purpose of calculating changes in cash flows, cash includes all cash balances and highly liquid short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Long Lived Assets- The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount.
Property and Equipment- Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is estimated at three years.
Income taxes- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Statement of Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes". SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable income or deductible expenses in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets and liabilities to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period adjusted for the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Mineral Properties- Costs incurred to acquire mineral interest in properties, to drill and equip exploratory sites within the claims groups, to conduct exploration and assay work are expensed as incurred.
Revenue Recognition- Mineral sales will result from undivided interests held by the Company in mineral properties. Sales of minerals will be recognized when delivered to be picked up by the purchaser. Mineral sales from marketing activities will result from sales by the Company of minerals produced by the Company (or affiliated entities) and will be recognized when delivered to purchasers. Mining revenues generated from the Company’s day rate contracts, included in mine services revenue, will be recognized as services are performed or delivered.

2. Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which assume the continuity of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred significant losses since its inception and continues to rely on financing and the issuance of shares and warrants to raise capital to fund its business operations.
Management’s plans with regard to this matter are as follows:
* Obtain the necessary approvals and permits to complete exploration and begin production on our properties as warranted. An application for drilling on Twin Peaks Project was submitted to the Bureau of Land Management and approved; Phases 1 and 2 of our 3-phase drilling program have been completed. Applications have been prepared for the Picacho Salton Project and are being reviewed by the Bureau of Land Management; permits are expected soon. The following are excerpts from an email received by USCorp from the California Desert District BLM Office:
"…In the process of writing the decision record we will have to respond to every issue brought up by the tribe…From the look of things we might also amend some portions of the E.A. [Environmental Assessment] while resolving some of these issues. … I believe we will be through with this process soon..."
Other permits for commercial mining are being prepared and reviewed for submission to Federal, State and local authorities.
* USCorp plans to begin commercial scale operations on one or more of its properties as soon as all of the required permits and approvals have been granted and funding obtained. Due to the nature of the ore bodies of the Company’s current properties Management expects to begin commercial scale operations on our Picacho Salton Project first; then Management expects to begin commercial scale operations on the Twin Peaks Project.
* With adequate funding management intends to hire qualified and experienced personnel, including additional officers and directors, and mining specialists, professionals and consulting firms to advise management as needed to handle mining operations, acquisitions, mergers, joint ventures and other business combinations in order to fulfill our business plan regarding development of existing and future mineral resource properties.
* Form a strategic alliance of consultants, engineers, contractors and possibly joint venture partners with an information and communication network that allows the alliance to function effectively.
* Acquire additional properties and/or corporations with properties as subsidiaries to advance the company's growth plans or be acquired by a company that fulfills this.
* The company has uploaded proprietary information about the company and our properties to a secure section of our web site for the purpose of raising additional capital in order to continue our exploration and development efforts.
* At this time the Company has curtailed its exploration efforts and drilling program due to an insufficient amount of capital. USCorp filed its annual report on form 10-K for fiscal year ending 9-30-2009 and this filing is the third quarter fiscal 2010 Form 10-Q. If USCorp does not obtain sufficient funding to maintain its status as a fully reporting company trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, management may allow the company to become a pink sheet traded, non-reporting, public company. A Company will be delisted from the OTC Bulletin Board if or when it fails or voluntarily chooses to not make required filings with the SEC or voluntarily delists from the OTC Bulletin Board and then trades on the PinkSheets. Eliminating the cost associated with being a fully reporting company is the last cost cutting measure available to USCorp.
3. Net Loss per Share
The Company applies SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share” to calculate loss per share. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, basic net loss per share has been computed based on the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the years, adjusted for the financial instruments outstanding that are convertible into common stock during the years. The effects of the common stock options and the debentures convertible into shares of common stock, however, have been excluded from the calculation of loss per share because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Net loss per share is computed as follows:
12
6/30/2010 | 6/30/2009 | |||||||
Net loss before cumulative preferred dividend | $ | (1,609,314 | ) | $ | (1,065,063 | ) | ||
Cumulative dividend preferred payable | (40,594 | ) | (33,510 | ) | ||||
Net loss to common shareholders | $ | (1,649,908 | ) | $ | (1,098,573 | ) | ||
Weighted average | 87,411,680 | 65,347,795 | ||||||
Basic & fully diluted net loss per common share | $ | (0.02 | ) | $ | (0.02 | ) |
4. Gold Bullion Promissory Note
In September 2005, the Company issued a promissory note to a shareholder and received proceeds of $648,282. The note requires the Company to pay the shareholder 1,634 ounces of Gold Bullion (.999 pure). Originally, the promissory note came due in September 2007. In September 2007, the holder of the promissory note agreed to extend the maturity date of the note to September 2009. In September 2009, the holder of the promissory note extended the maturity date to January 2010 at the previous terms. The holder has now extended the maturity date on a day-to-day basis.
The loss on the underlying gold derivative on the promissory note has been calculated as follows.
Carrying value of loan | $ | 907,918 | ||
Fair value of loan | 2,401,486 | |||
Life to date loss on unhedged underlying derivative | $ | (1,493,567 | ) |
5. Issuances of Common Stock and Preferred Stock
During fiscal year 2009, the Company issued 12,261,765 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $427,463. Purchasers of the common stock also received the option to purchase an additional 5,354,637 shares of common stock at $0.03 per share expiring in fiscal year 2010.
During fiscal year 2009, the Company issued 845,064 shares of common stock to consultants for services received valued at $62,390. In addition, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock to settle a lawsuit against the Company by a former consultant. These shares were valued at $12,000 and recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.
In September 2009, a holder of the preferred A convertible stock converted 50,000 shares of preferred A into 400,000 shares of common stock. Also in September 2009, the Company issued 1,393,750 preferred A shares and received proceeds of $1,394.
During fiscal year 2010, the Company has issued 15,206,385 shares of common stock for proceeds of $357,895.
During fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 2,961,663 shares of its common stock to consultants for services rendered valued at the market price at the date of issuance. The company record consulting expense of $175,953 as a result of the issuances.
During fiscal year 2010, the holders of the preferred A converted 1,175,000 preferred A into 9,400,000 shares of common stock.
During fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 15 million Class B common shares for $100,000 to a private Swiss corporation. Subsequently the transaction was unwound; the purchaser returned 14.939,500 shares to the treasury stock of the Company and the Company returned $73,500 to the purchaser. The Class B shares trade in Europe on the Deutche Boerse in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin and Stuttgart (see note 10) and are non-trading in the U.S.
13
During fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 17,606,285 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $405,395.
6.Common Stock Options
During fiscal year 2009, the Company issued 5,354,637 options to purchase common stock at $0.03 per share. These options expire in fiscal year 2010.
Also in fiscal year 2009, the Company issued 1,600,000 options exercisable at $.40 per share to the purchasers of the debentures discussed in Note 8 and the holders of the gold bullion promissory note discussed in Note 4. These options expired worthless at the beginning of fiscal year 2010.
During fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 9,734,063 options to purchase the company stock at two cents a share expiring in fiscal year 2011.
The Company applies SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to account for its option issues. Accordingly, all options granted are recorded at fair value using a generally accepted option pricing model at the date of the grant. For purposes of determining the option value at issuance, the fair value of each option granted is measured at the date of the grant by the option pricing model with the following assumptions:
Dividend yield | 0.00 | % | ||
Risk free interest rate | 1.00 | % | ||
Volatility | 25.00 | % |
The fair values generated by option pricing model may not be indicative of the future values, if any, that may be received by the option holder. As a result of the valuation, the Company recorded an expense of $339,507 is it statement of operations.
The Company provides for a Stock Incentive Plan for its employees. The plan provides for incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. The Board of Directors will determine whether an option is an incentive stock option or a non-qualified stock option when it grants the option and the option will be evidenced by an agreement describing the material terms of the option. The Board of Directors will determine the exercise price of an employee’s option at the date of the grant. The exercise price of an incentive stock option may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant, or less than 110% of the fair market value if the participant owns more than 10% of the outstanding common stock. The Board of Directors will also determine the term of an option at the date of the grant. The term of an incentive stock option or non-qualified stock option may not exceed ten years from the date of grant, but any incentive stock option granted to a participant who owns more than 10% of the outstanding common stock will not be exercisable after the expiration of five years after the date the option is granted. Subject to any further limitations in the applicable agreement, if a participant’s employment terminates, an incentive stock option will terminate and expire no later than three months after the date of termination of employment.
Incentive stock options are also subject to the further restriction that the aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date of the grant, of the market value of the common Stock as to which any incentive stock option first becomes exercisable in any calendar year is limited to $100,000 per recipient. If incentive stock options covering more than $100,000 worth of the common stock first become exercisable in any one calendar year, the excess will be non-qualified options. For purposes of determining which options, if any, have been granted in excess of the $100,000 limit, options will be considered to become exercisable in the order granted.
The following is a summary of common stock warrants outstanding at June 30, 2010:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, and the other financial data appearing elsewhere in this Report.
The information set forth in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21 E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others (i) expected changes in the Company’s revenues and profitability, (ii) prospective business opportunities and (iii) the Company’s strategy for financing its business. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements of current condition. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by use of terms such as "believes", "anticipates", "intends" or "expects". These forward-looking statements relate to the plans, objectives and expectations of the Company for future operations. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this report should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.
The Company’s revenues and results of operations could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) changes in external competitive market factors, (ii) termination of certain operating agreements or inability to enter into additional operating agreements, (iii) inability to satisfy anticipated working capital or other cash requirements, (iv) changes in or developments under domestic or foreign laws, regulations, governmental requirements or in the mining industry, (v) changes in the Company’s business strategy or an inability to execute its strategy due to unanticipated changes in the market, (vi) various competitive factors that may prevent the Company from competing successfully in the marketplace, and (ix) the Company’s lack of liquidity and its ability to raise additional capital. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any future revisions it may make to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to reserves and intangible assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experiences and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily allowance for the cost of the Mineral Properties based on the successful efforts method of accounting. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

Results of Operations
Comparison of operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009:
The Company has no revenues through the date of this report.
General and administrative expenses were $35,991 compared to $210,197 for the same period a year ago. Consulting costs decreased from $20,240 to - -$53,719 in the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period last year, which is mainly due to a decrease in investor and public relations costs, most of which were paid for with stock. Administration costs decreased from $140,059 in the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $86,754 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 due to decreased costs for clerical help, office staff, the value of payments for professional services with Registered S-8 shares, and the difference between the capitalization received as a result of investors exercising their warrants and the value of shares issued when the warrants were exercised by investors during the period.
As a result of general and administrative costs, the Company experienced a loss from operations of $35,991 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to loss from operations of $210,997 for the same period last year.
Interest expense loss decreased to -$13,185 during the third three months of fiscal 2010 compared to -$46,515 the third three months of fiscal year 2010 as a result of the Gold Bullion Loan borrowed at the end of September 2005 and the change in the price of gold compared to the same period one year ago. The loan is payable in gold bullion at the prevailing price and is not hedged. The Company’s loss on the unhedged loan is $254,271 for the third three months of fiscal year 2010 compared to a gain of $5,624 for the same period a year ago due to the change in the price of gold over the past year.
Net loss for thethird three months of fiscal year 2010 was $303,447 or $0.00 per share compared to a loss of $251,076, or $0.00 per share for the same period last year.
Discussion of Financial Condition: Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2010 cash on hand was $44,720 as compared with $18,527 at September 30, 2009. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2010, the Company used $943,636 for its operations compared to $865,664 for the first nine months of fiscal 2009.
At June 30, 2010, the Company had working capital of $44,720 compared to a working capital of $18,527 at September 30, 2009. The increase is due to costs of continuing exploration and preparations for development of Company’s mining properties offset by the Company’s on-going financing efforts.
Total assets at June 30, 2010 were $45,096 as compared to $19,557 at September 30, 2009. The increase is due to costs of continuing exploration and preparations for development of Company’s mining properties offset by the Company’s on-going financing efforts.
The Company’s total stockholders’ deficit increased to a deficit of $3,291,151 at June 30, 2010 compared to a deficit of $2,602,692 at September 30, 2009. The increase in stockholders’ deficit was the result of an increase in additional paid in capital and operating losses of $943,636 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 due to costs for clerical help, office staff, the value of payments for professional services with Registered S-8 shares, and the difference between the capitalization received as a result of investors exercising their warrants and the value of shares issued when the warrants were exercised by investors during the period.
As discussed in our January 22, 2010 press release, Robert Dultz, President, Chairman and CEO, and other members of the management and exploration team have been actively involved in correspondence, conference calls, site visits, meetings and review of USCorp’s proprietary data, with a variety of people representing various institutional funding organizations andvarious mining companies, including some contacts directly with their CEOs. The institutional funding organizations are international in scope and the mining companies range in size from junior to major, and from regional to international in scope. These communications have as their object completing one or more of the following: debt or equity financing, the acquisition of USCorp, or creating a joint venture, merger, or other business combinations whose purpose is development of the Company’s California and Arizona properties by well-financed and highly experienced miners.

USCorp received several communications from an investment group based in Europe (and not affiliated with any prior European investment group that USCorp has entered into agreements with) to purchase up to 245,000,000 Class B non-voting Common shares via a private placement. Our Class B Common shares trade only outside of the U.S. These proposals were not structured in a way that USCorp was willing to accept due to i) technical issues regarding the mechanics of transferring shares electronically from our transfer agent in the U.S. to the purchaser’s brokerage in Switzerland while simultaneously receiving payment (known as Delivery Versus Payment or “DVP), ii) certain rules and regulations that apply to U.S. based public corporations, but do not apply to foreign corporations, and iii) German exchange trading rules and regulations.
During these negotiations, USCorp agreed to sell 15,000,000 Class B Common shares to a Swiss Consulting company for US$0.03 per share. USCorp received US$100,000 with a promise to pay the balance of US$350,000 within 120 days.
Eventually the parties determined it was not possible to structure the proposed purchase of up to 245,000,000 Class B Common shares under terms and conditions that were acceptable to both parties and it was agreed to unwind the purchase of the 15,000,000 shares. The Consulting company has informed USCorp it sold into the market in Germany 60,500 of the Class B Common shares in its possession, and USCorp has informed the Consulting company it has incurred US$30,000 in expenses. At the beginning of June, 2010 the transaction was unwound; the purchaser returned 14.939,500 shares to the treasury stock of the Company and the Company returned US$73,500 to the purchaser. Our Class B shares trade in Europe on the Deutche Boerse in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin and Stuttgart (see note 10 of the financial statement) and are non-trading in the U.S.

There were no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the first three quarters of fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 17,406.385 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $568,838; 2,961,663shares were issued for services with a value of $146.339; and 1,175,000 Series A Preferred shares were converted to 9,400,000 Class A Common shares by officers and directors of the corporation.
During the first three quarters of fiscal year 2010, the Company issued 15,655,336 options to buy its common stock to the purchasers of the common stock described above. The options expire in fiscal year 2011. Also during the first three quarters, 4,136,666options to purchase common stock expired unexercised.
As previously reported, in fiscal 2008 we received commitments to finance fiscal 2009 operations in the amount of $2.19 million. In the last quarter of fiscal 2008 and the last quarter of calendar 2008 the Company received $400,000 of the $2.19 million in commitments for fiscal 2009; however no additional payments were received, in breach of their agreement. We have no expectation the Company will receive the rest of the committed funds.
As a result of the failure to meet the commitments to fund USCorp operations in fiscal 2009 there has been substantial damage done to USCorp. During the first nine months of fiscal 2009 we were assured on several occasions that the funds were coming and we delayed seeking other sources of financing while providing the lender with requested due diligence documentation regarding USCorp, our properties, historical mining on those properties and our contemporary exploration efforts on those properties. In addition we were unable to complete the third phase of the Twin Peaks drilling program and therefore were unable to update our resource measurements, making it more difficult to obtain additional financing from other sources, and to complete drilling on our California properties, causing the inability to pay the bullion loan when due. The bullion loan due date was extended and after January 31, 2010 it is extended on a day-to-day basis. We continue to pursue other sources of financing (see “Discussion of Financial Condition: Liquidity and Capital Resources” above).
The Company claimed an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder since, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the Investor was an “accredited investor” and/or qualified institutional buyers, the Investor had access to information about the Company and its investment, the Investor took the securities for investment and not resale, and we took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.
