Merilus, Inc. (a development stage enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) Note 1: Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Merilus, Inc. (the "Company") were prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management of the Company ("Management") believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ended December 31, 2002. These unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of Management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003. Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Development stage enterprise Merilus, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 7, 1985. The Company's initial operations proved unsuccessful. During 1999 the Company forward split of its outstanding shares of common stock on a basis of 200 for 1, and during the year 2000 the Company again forward split its common stock on a basis of 10 for 1 and amended its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of a preferred class of stock. The financial statements of the Company retroactively reflect the effects of both of these forward splits. During the year 2000 the Company entered into a reorganization agreement ("Agreement") with the intent to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a development stage enterprise, Merilus Technologies, Inc. ("MTI"), a British Columbia corporation. During 2001 the Company attempted to complete the terms of the Agreement; however, the acquisition of MTI was never consummated as contemplated. During 2003 MTI filed for bankruptcy in British Columbia, Canada, listing the Company as an unsecured creditor. The Company has not collected any amounts from the bankruptcy proceedings and does not anticipate the collection of any amounts. Subsequent thereto the Company became dormant and during 2005, the Company commenced its efforts to acquire an operating entity. Going concern These financial statements have been prepared in contemplation of the Company continuing as a going concern. However, the Company has not had revenues from operations in each of the last two fiscal years, is considered a development stage enterprise as defined by SFAS 7 and since 2005, the Company is seeking an acquisition or merger with an operating entity. (See Note 4) Net loss per share of common stock The loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss during the period presented by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during that same period. Note 2: Reorganization Agreement During the year 2000 and in contemplation of entering into the Agreement for the purpose of acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of MTI, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of 2,000,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Upon entering into the Agreement the warrants were exercised and the Company received $2,000,000, which was given to MTI in exchange for notes receivable. Pursuant to the Agreement a trust was established into which the Company issued 1 share of preferred stock that represented 3,767,500 "exchangeable shares" of the Company's common stock. Upon surrender by MTI shareholders of their MTI stock, the Company would issue its common stock to the MTI shareholder. By end of the year 2001, the Company had issued 828,300 shares of its common stock, which represented approximately 22% of the exchangeable shares. Subsequent to this issuance, no further shares of the Company's common stock were issued to MTI shareholders pursuant to the Agreement and the Company cancelled the preferred share that had been issued. The 828,300 shares that were issued were valued on the Company's financial statements at the par value of its common stock or $0.001. During the year 2001, the Company conducted its operations as though it had acquired MTI even though its control of MTI was only through the Agreement and the officers and directors that were elected pursuant thereto. During this year the Company issued shares of its common stock for the benefit of MTI in the following amounts: 60,000 shares for services rendered valued at the approximate fair market value at the time of issuance of $36,125 (per share price ranging between $0.25 and $1.00); and 1,532,504 shares for cash, valued at the cash consideration received (per share price ranging between $0.25 and $1.00). Note 3: Contingent Liabilities To the extent that the Company was a party to any financial transactions that were not discharged through MTI's bankruptcy proceedings, including the obligations associated with the issuance of the one share of preferred stock, or that may not have been listed as part of MTI's bankruptcy, the Company may have contingent liabilities. To the best of management's knowledge and belief the financial statements accurately reflect the financial position of the Company as of the dates presented and no contingent liabilities exist. Note 4: Subsequent Events and Related Party Transactions During the fourth quarter of 2005, a shareholder of the Company paid $4,593 of the Company's obligations and through September 30, 2006 advanced $15,894 in cash to the Company. The Company signed interest bearing (6% per annum) promissory notes which are due in full with accrued interest the earlier of December 31, 2006 or within five days of the merger or acquisition between the Company and another corporation or entity that has operations. At September 30, 2006 the Company had accrued interest in the amount of $498 on these notes. The Company's ability to meet its ongoing financial requirements has been dependent on loans from a shareholder and management's willingness to serve the Company without monetary remuneration. The Company assumes that this arrangement will continue during the next 12 months; however, no assurance thereof can be given. A change in these circumstances would have a material adverse effect on the Company's plan of operations. During February 2006 the Company issued 750,000 shares of common stock to its then President and sole Director in consideration of services rendered valued at $2,250 ($.003 per share), which amount approximated the market value during the period when the services were performed. On December 7, 2006 this individual resigned as a Director and officer of the Company. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This periodic report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the Plan of Operations provided below, including information regarding the Company's financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive positions, growth opportunities, and the plans and objectives of management. The statements made as part of the Plan of Operations that are not historical facts are hereby identified as "forward-looking statements." Plan of Operations Overview: The Company has not received any revenue from operations in each of the last two fiscal years and is considered a development stage enterprise. The Company's current operations have consisted of taking such action as management believes necessary to prepare to seek an acquisition or merger with an operating entity. The Company has obtained loans from a shareholder and has issued shares of its common stock to its president for services rendered. The Company may also issue shares of its common stock to raise equity capital. A shareholder of the Company has financed the Company's current operations, which have consisted primarily of maintaining in good standing the Company's corporate status, in fulfilling its filing requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the audit of its financial statements, and in changing the marketplace of its securities. The Company has entered into a note agreement on January 31, 2006 with a shareholder to receive a total of $9,000 pursuant to the following terms: unsecured promissory note due on or before December 31, 2006, bearing interest at the rate of six percent per annum and requiring repayment be made in full with accrued interest within five days of the merger or acquisition between the Company and another corporation or entity that has operations. The Company has received $5,800 as of June 30, 2006 and will request additional cash to pay its current liabilities. In addition, on December 14, 2005, the Company signed a promissory note payable to this shareholder in the amount of $4,593.50, having the same terms as previously described. The financial statements contained in this interim report have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is not engaged in any revenue producing activities and has not established any source of revenue other than described herein. These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern even though management believes that sufficient funding is available to meet its operating needs during the next twelve months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Alex Demitriev serves as the Company's sole officer and director, and therefore he acts as Company's management. Mr. Demitriev is not being provided any cash compensation. Prior to Mr. Demitriev's appointment, Denny W. Nestripke accepted the position of the Company's sole officer and director in 2005 and has served in that capacity until November 27, 2006. During the 4th quarter of 2005, the Company accrued a liability payable to Mr. Nestripke in the amount of $1,500 and an additional amount of $750 was earned during January of 2006. During February of 2006 Mr. Nestripke received 750,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $0.003, the prevailing market price during the period that the $2,250 was earned. The services that Mr. Nestripke provided were largely related to the preparation of financial statements, the preparation and review of filings being made with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, other regulatory filings (such as tax returns), and the performance of other duties associated with the Company's plan of operations. On November 27, 2006, Mr. Nestripke appointed Alex Demitriev to the Board of Directors and tendered his resignation as a director and sole officer of the Company. Mr. Nestripke also entered into an engagement letter relating to future services which he will provide to the Company. Pursuant to the engagement letter, the Company has requested that Mr. Nestripke assist Mr. Demitriev in submitting financial information to the Company's auditors, without cost to the Company. Risks associated with the plan of operations: In its search for a business opportunity, management anticipates that the Company will incur additional costs for legal and accounting fees to locate and complete a merger or acquisition. Other than previously discussed, the Company does not have any revenue producing activities whereby it can meet the financial requirements of seeking a business opportunity. As of June 30, 2006, the Company has obligated itself in the amount of $19,594 and may further obligate itself as it pursues its plan of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive any benefits from the efforts of management to locate business opportunities. At September 30, 2003, the Company had no obligations and was not actively pursuing any business objectives. The Company does not propose to restrict its search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and may, therefore, attempt to acquire any business in any industry. The Company has unrestricted discretion in seeking and participating in a business opportunity, subject to the availability of such opportunities, economic conditions, and other factors. Consequently, if and when a business opportunity is selected, such business opportunity may not be in an industry that is following general business trends. The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, the Company has only limited resources and this fact may make it more difficult to find any such opportunities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to the Company and its shareholders. The Company will select any potential business opportunity based on management's business judgment. At the present time, only Mr. Nestripke serves in management and allowing only one individual to exercise his business judgment in the selection of a business opportunity for the Company presents a significant risk to the Company's shareholders. The Company may acquire or participate in a business opportunity based on the decision of management that potentially could act without the consent, vote, or approval of the Company's shareholders. Since its inception, the Company has not generated any revenue and it is unlikely that any revenue will be generated until such time as the Company locates a business opportunity to acquire or with which it can merge. However, the Company is not restricting its search to those business opportunities that have profitable operations. Even though a business opportunity is acquired that has revenues or gross income, there is no assurance that profitable operations or net income will result therefrom. Consequently, even though the Company may be successful in acquiring a business opportunity, such acquisition does not assume that a profitable business opportunity is being acquired or that shareholders will benefit through an increase in the market price of the Company's common stock. The acquisition of a business opportunity, no matter what form it may take, will almost assuredly result in substantial dilution for the Company's current shareholders. Inasmuch as the Company only has its equity securities (its common and preferred stock) as a source to provide consideration for the acquisition of a business opportunity, the Company's issuance of a substantial portion of its authorized common stock is the most likely method for the Company to consummate an acquisition. The issuance of any shares of the Company's common stock will dilute the ownership percentage that current shareholders have in the Company. The Company does not intend to employ anyone in the future, unless its present business operations were to change. Mr. Demitriev does not have a contract to remain with the Company over any certain time period and may resign his position prior to the time that a business opportunity is located and/or business reorganization takes place. At the present time, management does not believe it is necessary for the Company to have an administrative office. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of September 30, 2003, the Company had no working capital with no assets or liabilities. If the Company cannot find a new business, it will have to seek additional capital either through the sale of its shares of common stock or through a loan from its officer or shareholders. The Company has only incidental ongoing expenses primarily associated with maintaining its corporate status and professional fees associated with accounting and legal costs. Management anticipates that the Company will incur more costs including legal and accounting fees to locate and complete a merger or acquisition. At the present time the Company does not have the assets to meet these financial requirements. Additionally, the Company does not have substantial assets to entice potential business opportunities to enter into transactions with the Company. It is unlikely that any revenue will be generated until the Company locates a business opportunity with which to acquire or merge. Management of the Company will be investigating various business opportunities. These efforts may cost the Company not only out of pocket expenses for its management but also expenses associated with legal and accounting costs. There can be no guarantee that the Company will receive any benefits from the efforts of management to locate business opportunities. If and when the Company locates a business opportunity, management of the Company will give consideration to the dollar amount of that entity's profitable operations and the adequacy of its working capital in determining the terms and conditions under which the Company would consummate such an acquisition. Potential business opportunities, no matter which form they may take, will most likely result in substantial dilution for the Company's shareholders as it has only limited capital and no operations. Results of Operations For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company had no revenue or expenses, as it was not pursuing any business activities. The Company does not anticipate any revenue until it locates a new business opportunity. Off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements and it is not anticipated that the Company will enter into any off- balance sheet arrangements. Item 3. Controls and procedures Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company's principal executive and accounting officer has reviewed the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(a) / Rule 15d-14(a) of the Exchange Act) in place to assure the effectiveness of such controls and procedures. This review occurred within 90 days of this Form 10-QSB being filed. Based on this review, the principal executive and accounting officer believes that the disclosure controls and procedures are adequate. Changes in disclosure controls and procedures. There were no changes in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, or in factors that could significantly affect those controls and procedures, since the date of the most recent evaluation.
