Notes to Financial Statements - Unaudited
1. Basis of Presentation
These unaudited financial statements of Silver Butte Co., Inc. (“the Company”) included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although certain information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, included in the Company’s Form 10-K.
The financial statements included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of results to be expected for the full year ended August 31, 2010.
2. Description of Business
Silver Butte Co., Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on March 4, 2004, and is the successor company of Silver Butte Mining Company, which was incorporated in Idaho in 1965. Throughout this report, reference to ‘the Company’ may include reference to the Idaho corporation, prior to the merger, or the Nevada corporation.
The Company was originally organized to explore, acquire and develop mineral properties and rights, primarily in Idaho. However, the Company’s exploration activities never developed any commercial ore deposits, so the Company decided to abandon, or sell, its mineral properties and rights, and favorably position itself to seek other profitable business opportunities.
3. Stockholders’ Equity
During September and October 2009, the Company sold 710,000 common shares at $0.05 per share for proceeds of $35,500 in a private placement to accredited investors.
4. Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events through January 14, 2010, and found none to report.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
General
This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions that are not statements of historical facts. This document and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intends,” “estimates,” “forecast,” “project” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this document are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based on management’s discussion and analysis or plan of operations and elsewhere in this report. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, these statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, and are difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s view only as of the date of this report.
Plan of Operation
The Company’s purpose is to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in business opportunities presented to it by persons or firms who desire to seek the perceived advantages of a publicly registered corporation. The Company will not restrict its search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature.
The Company may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. The Company may acquire assets and establish wholly-owned subsidiaries in various businesses, or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries. Business opportunities may be available in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.
Management of the Company will rely primarily upon their own efforts to accomplish the business purposes of the Company. It is not anticipated that any outside consultants or advisors, other than the Company's legal counsel, will be utilized by the Company to effectuate its business purposes described herein.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
An evaluation was performed of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures by the Company’s President and the Secretary/Treasurer. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of November 30, 2009, in ensuring that all material information required to be filed in this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely fashion.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three month period ended November 30, 2009, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
