NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2008
(Stated in Canadian Dollars)
(Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
Note 1
Nature of Operations
Pacific Harbour Capital Ltd. is a public company, which was incorporated on March 8, 1986 under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. Its common shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange and the OTC Bulletin Board. The Company is in the business of providing administration services and rent to public companies and is actively searching for other business opportunities.
Note 2
Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared by the Company in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial data is based on accounting policies and practices consistent with those used in the annual audited financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures included in the Company’s annual financial statements. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements.
Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates that have been made using careful judgement. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The interim consolidated financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarised below:
a)
Principle of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Note 2
Significant Accounting Policies- (cont’d)
b)
Marketable Securities
The Company classifies marketable securities as financial assets held for trading. These securities which are traded on a recognized securities exchange are recorded at fair values based on quoted closing bid prices at the consolidated balance sheet dates or the closing bid price on the last day the security traded if there were no trades at the consolidated balance sheet dates.
c)
Investments
Investment in privately held companies in which the Company does not exert significant influence is classified as financial assets available-for-sale and is recognized at cost. Downward adjustments to carrying values are made when there is evidence of a decline in value as indicated by the assessment of the financial condition of the investment based on operational results, forecasts and other developments since acquisition.
d)
Capital Assets and Amortization
Capital assets are recorded at cost. Amortization has been calculated using the following annual rates and methods:
Computer equipment
30% declining balance
Office furniture
20% declining balance
Software
50% declining balance
e)
Revenue Recognition
Administrative services and rent are recorded when the services are provided. The Company records gains on the sale of land on the completion date of the sale, which is the date of the transfer of the title of the land. Investment income is recorded in the year earned.
Marketable securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses on disposal of investments and unrealised gains and losses in the value of investments are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and are calculated on an average cost basis. Upon disposal of an investment, previously recognized unrealised gains or losses are reversed, so as to recognize the full realized gain or loss in the period of disposition.

Note 2
Significant Accounting Policies- (cont’d)
f)
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the year available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in earnings of the entity. In a loss year, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be anti- dilutive.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2008, potentially dilutive common shares (relating to options and warrants outstanding at period-end) totalling 1,159,028 were not included in the computation of loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.
g)
Foreign Currency Translation
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the consolidated balance sheet. Non-monetary assets, liabilities and other items recorded in income arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Resulting exchange gains or losses are included in income.
h)
Stock-Based Compensation Plan
The Company accounts for compensation expense based on the fair value of rights granted under its stock-based compensation plan. Under this method, compensation costs attributable to share options granted to employees, directors and officers is measured at fair value at the grant date, and expensed over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus. Upon exercise of stock options, consideration paid by the option holder, together with the amount previously recognized in contributed surplus, is recorded as an increase to share capital.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock options at the date of grant. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

Significant Accounting Policies- (cont’d)
i) Change in Accounting Policies
Effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted CICA Handbook Section 3862,”Financial Instruments-Disclosure”, Section 3863,”Financial Instruments-Presentation”. These standards replace the current standard Section 3861 and place increased emphasis on disclosures about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments and how to manage the risks arising from financial instruments. Section 3862 requires disclosure of additional detail by financial assets and liability categories. Section 3863 establishes standards for presentation of financial instruments and non-financial derivatives.
Effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted CICA Handbook Section 1400,” General Standards of Financial Statements”. This section requires management to make an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to disclose of any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. When the financial statements are not prepared on a going concern basis, that fact should be disclosed together with the basis why the Company is not considered a going concern.
Effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted CICA Handbook Section 1535,” Capital Disclosures”. This section establishes standards for disclosing information about any entity’s objectives, policies, and processes for managing capital.
The adoption of these standards did not impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

1.3Results of Operations For the Second Quarter Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007
Revenue and Revenue from Other Items
Revenue from administrative services and rent was unchanged for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2008 at $12,000 and $24,000 respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2007.
Total revenue from investment income and marketable securities declined in the three months and six months ended September 30, 2008 at ($16,247) and ($14,434), respectively, as compared to $2,287 and $35,500, respectively, for the same periods last year. The reduction was mainly due to unfavourable market condition resulting in the Company reporting unrealised loss on marketable securities.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant at $87,867 in the second quarter ended September 30, 2008 as compared to $84,410 in the same quarter last year. Cumulatively for the six months period, general and administrative expenses decreased from $237,673 in the six months ended September 30, 2007 to $156,502 in the current six months period, a decrease of $81,171 or 34%. The decrease was primarily due to the Company reporting a stock-based compensation expense of $76,772 in the six months period ended September 30, 2007, which was not repeated in the current six months period. Excluding the stock-based compensation, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly due to lower filing expenses and wages and benefits. The lower wages and benefits in the current period was the result of an employee taking maturity leave and have since left the Company.
Net Income/Loss
The Company reported a net loss of $92,114 or $0.01 loss per share for the second quarter ended September 30, 2008 as compared to a net loss of $70,123 or $0.01 loss per share for the same period last year. For the six months period, the Company reported a net loss of $146,436 or $0.02 loss per share as compared to a net loss of $178,173 or $0.02 loss per share for the comparable six months period.
1.4Transactions with Related Parties
For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Company paid $12,000 (2007: $12,000) in management fees to a company controlled by a director and officer of the Company for management services.
For the six months period, the Company received $24,000 (2007: $24,000) in fees from a related company that has a director and officer in common. These fees were paid for shared office facilities and staffing costs.
All the above charges are on terms and conditions similar to non-related parties.

General Discussion of Quarterly Results
Income and loss
Significant changes in key financial data for net income or loss during the quarters are as follows:
During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net income of $380,107 consisted of a gain on sale of land of $397,235, a gain on settlement of accounts payable of $60,257 and administrative expenses of $77,385.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, net loss of $191,728 was primarily the result of an unrealised loss on write-down of investment of $20,843, stock-based compensation of $74,482 and general and administrative expenses of $96,403.
1.6Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital decreased by $144,118 from $718,850 as of March 31, 2008 to $574,732 as at September 30, 2008. The decrease was primarily attributable to the operating loss for the six months period.
Cash used in operating activities for the second quarter ended September 30, 2008 was $68,955 compared to $70,387 used during the quarter ended September 30, 2007. Cash used in operating activities consists of mainly operating loss. From an operating standpoint, the Company relies on revenue from administrative services and rent to partially remedy operating deficiency. The Company has no plans for any material capital expenditures in the coming year.
The Company did not engage in any financing activities in the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 and the same periods last year.
The Company did not engage in any investing activities in the three and six months ended September 30, 2008. In comparison, the Company expended $550 in equipment purchase in the comparable six month last year.
Overall, the Company had negative net cash outflow of $68,955 for the second quarter ended September 30, 2008. Depending on future growth and investment activities, the Company may obtain equity or debt financing to support acquisition or investment activities.
1.7 Contingent liabilities and Lawsuits
The Company is currently involved with one court case, which it plans to defend vigorously.
The court case involves another law firm engaged by the previous management. The firm claims outstanding legal fees of approximately $32,000. The Company is in the process of contesting the amount through the court and deems it unreasonable. This legal fee has been accrued in the financial statements in full.
1.8Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements such as guarantee contracts, contingent interest in assets transferred to an entity, derivative instruments obligations and any obligations that trigger financing, liquidity, market or credit risk to the Company.
1.9Contractual Obligations and Commitments
On September 30, 2008, the Company had no long-term debt, capital lease obligations, purchase obligations, contractual obligations or commitments. The Company, however, has an operating lease commitment for office space at $85,834 per annum until March 31, 2012.
1.10Financial instruments and Risk Factors
As of September 30, 2008 the Company held $22,194 in marketable securities, which are valued at fair market value. These marketable securities are exposed to market volatility and may result in risk of loss in value. The Company also held $100,056 investments in privately held companies, which are valued at cost. The investments are also subject to risk of loss in value. Other financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable, were not exposed to any financial instrument risks since their fair value approximates their carrying values.
Business or investment risks
The Company is subject to risks of venturing into businesses or investments that are not profitable and may result in additional debt costs and contingent liabilities.
1.11Changes in Accounting Policies
New accounting policies
The following new standards were issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and are effective for interim and annual financial statements for the Company’s reporting period beginning April 1, 2008.
CICA Handbook Section 1535- Capital Disclosures
Section 1535 specifies the disclosure of (i) an entity’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital; (ii) quantitative data about what the entity regards as capital; (iii) whether the entity has complied with any capital requirements; and (iv) if it has not complied, the consequences of such non-compliance. The adoption of this standard did not impact the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
CICA Handbook Section 3862 and 3863, Financial Instruments
These two standards increase the disclosures currently required to enable users to evaluate the significance of financial instruments for an entity's financial position and performance, including disclosures about fair value. CICA Handbook Section 3863, Financial Instruments – Presentation, replaces the existing requirements on the presentation of financial instruments, which have been carried forward unchanged. These new sections place increased emphasis on disclosures about the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments and how the Company manages those risks. The adoption of this standard did not impact the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
CICA Handbook Section 1400-General Standards of Financial Statements
This section requires management to make an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to disclose any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The adoption of this standard did not impact the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Future Accounting Changes
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The AcSB issued CICA Handbook Section 3064 which replaces Section 3062, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and Section 3450, Research and Development Costs. This new section establishes standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of goodwill subsequent to its initial recognition and of intangible assets. Standards concerning goodwill remain unchanged from the standards included in the previous Section 3062. The section applies to interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after October 1, 2008. Accordingly, the Company will adopt the new standards for its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2009. It establishes standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of goodwill subsequent to its initial recognition and of intangible assets by profit-oriented enterprises. Standards concerning goodwill are unchanged from the st andards included in the previous Section 3062. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new section on its financial statements.
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
In 2006, AcSB published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five year transitional period. In February 2008, the AcSB announced that 2011 is the changeover date for publicly-listed companies to use IFRS, replacing Canada’s own GAAP. The date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2011 will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the year ended March 31, 2010. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS for 2011, the financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
1.12Share Capital Outstanding
Authorized Capital
100,000,000 common shares without par value
100,000,000 preferred shares without par value
Issued and outstanding
7,247,703 common shares as at September 30, 2008
1.13Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
On November 23, 2007, the Canadian Securities Administrators (“CSA”) announced an update to the initiative to repeal and replace Multilateral Instrument 52-109-Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. This update stipulated that the amendment will no longer require the CEO and CFO of a venture issuer to certify that they have designed and evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.
Management has exercise care and diligence to ensure that there are appropriate information systems and controls in place to ensure that the financial reporting is complete and reliable. Due to the small size the Company, management tries to perform frequent and periodic review of all activities in order to mitigate the lack of segregation of duties that is a common risk factor for small venture issuers.
1.14Forward Looking Statements

Such forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
