PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
SUMMARY
We were incorporated on May 30, 2007. We are an exploration stage corporation.
The Company carried out the first phase of exploration on the Key 1-4 Mineral
Claims, SW Goldfield Hills Area, Esmeralda County, Nevada, USA consists of
approximately 83 acres. The results of Phase I were not promising and management
determined it was in the best interests of the shareholders to abandon the
property and we allowed the Claim to lapse in September 2009. On November 4,
2009 the Company signed a Letter of Intent with Suntech Energy of British
Columbia to establish the basic terms to be used in a future asset purchase
between the Company and Suntech Energy. The Agreement, if the terms were met,
would have become effective on or before March 31, 2010. The Agreement expired
without the parties coming to terms; the Company is now in discussions with
Suntech Energy with reard to signing a new Agreement.
At the present, we have no full-time employees. Our sole officer and director
will devote approximately 10% - 15% of his time or 4 to 6 hours per week to our
operation.
Our administrative office is located at 575 Anton Blvd., Suite 300, Costa Mesa,
CA 92626. Our fiscal year end is May 31.
We have a total of 75,000,000 authorized common shares with a par value of
$0.001 per share and 6,250,000 common shares issued and outstanding as of May
31, 2009. Of the outstanding shares 3,000,000 shares are held by our officer and
director and 3,250,000 shares are held by 30 independent investors who purchased
shares from us in a private placement that was exempt from registration under
Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and completed in March, 2008.
COMPETITIVE FACTORS
We do not currently compete with anyone.
REGULATIONS
We are not currently subject to any regulatory bodies.
EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
At present, we have no full-time employees. Our officer and director is a
part-time employee and currently devotes about 10% - 15% of his time or four to
six hours per week to our operation. Our officer and director does not have an
employment agreement with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity,
insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we
may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits
available to our officers and directors. Our officer and director will handle
our administrative duties.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
BECAUSE WE HAVE ONLY RECENTLY COMMENCED EXPLORATION AND HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING
HISTORY, THERE IS NO BASIS UPON WHICH YOU CAN EVALUATE OUR PROPOSED BUSINESS AND
PROSPECTS.
We were incorporated under the name Ameriwest Minerals Corp. on May 30, 2007,
and to date have been involved primarily in organizational activities and
obtaining our mineral claims, limited exploration and funding.
There is no way to evaluate the likelihood of whether we will be able to operate
our proposed business successfully.
If our business fails to develop in the manner we have anticipated, investors
may lose their investment in the shares.
AS A NEWLY FORMED MINERAL EXPLORATION COMPANY, WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE MANY RISKS
AND UNFORESEEN EXPENSES AND PROBLEMS THAT A NEWLY FORMED MINERAL EXPLORATION
COMPANY ENCOUNTERS.
As a newly formed mineral exploration company, we are subject to all of the
operating hazards and risks normally incident to exploring and developing
mineral properties such as unusual rock formations, environmental pollution,
personal injuries, industrial accidents, flooding, cave-ins, and periodic
interruptions due to inclement weather. These risks can materially adversely
affect our business and cause our business to fail. Furthermore, if we are
unsuccessful in preparing for and/or addressing these risks, our business will
be likely to fail and investors will lose their entire investment in the shares.
Similar to other mineral exploration companies, we are also subject to many
unforeseen risks and expenses incident to exploring and developing mineral
properties such as delays in governmental or environmental permitting, changes
in the legislation governing the mining industry that might alter our ability to
conduct our operations as planned, the availability of reasonably priced
insurance products, unexpected construction costs necessary to create and
maintain the production facility, and normal fluctuations in the general markets
for the minerals and/or metals to be produced. These risks and expenses, while
beyond our control, can materially adversely affect our business and cause our
business to fail. Furthermore, if these unforeseen costs and expenses exceed our
current estimates, our business will be likely to fail and investors will lose
their entire investment in the shares.
AS A NEWLY FORMED MINERAL EXPLORATION COMPANY, WE WILL BE REQUIRED TO IMPLEMENT
AND EXECUTE OUR PROPOSED BUSINESS, AND IF WE ARE UNABLE TO DO SO INVESTORS WILL
LOSE THEIR INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES.
New exploration companies are traditionally subject to high rates of failure. We
are no exception to this general trend and we can provide no assurances to
investors that we will be able to generate any operating revenues or achieve
profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in implementing business
operations, our business will likely fail and investors will lose their entire
investment in the shares.
4
IF WE NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS, THE FUNDS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE WHEN WE
NEED THEM. WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE RIGHTS SENIOR TO THE RIGHTS OF OUR
SHAREHOLDERS IN ORDER TO ATTRACT ADDITIONAL FUNDS AND, IF WE USE EQUITY
SECURITIES TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS DILUTION TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS MAY OCCUR.
To the extent that we require additional funds, we cannot assure investors that
additional financing will be available when needed on favorable terms or at all,
and if the funds are not available when we need them, we may be forced to
terminate our business. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of
equity securities, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be
reduced; and those equity securities issued to raise additional funds may have
rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of the holders
of our common stock.
WE CURRENTLY HAVE NO EMPLOYEES OTHER THAN OUR OFFICER, WE HAVE NO EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT WITH OUR OFFICER, OUR OFFICER SERVES ON A PART-TIME BASIS, WE CANNOT
PAY OUR OFFICER ANY COMPENSATION, AND IF OUR OFFICER WAS TO LEAVE OUR EMPLOY,
OUR BUSINESS COULD FAIL.
Because our ability to engage in business is dependent upon, among other things,
the personal efforts, abilities and business relationships of our officer, if
our officer were to terminate employment with us or become unable to provide
such services before a qualified successor, if any, could be found, our business
could fail.
Our current officer does not provide full time services to us, and we will not
have full-time management until such time, if ever, as we engage employees on a
full-time basis.
We do not maintain "key person" insurance on our officer, and if our officer
were to die or become disabled, we do not have any insurance benefits to defer
the costs of seeking a replacement.
WE ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON OUR OFFICER, WE HAVE NO DEFINITIVE COMPENSATION
AGREEMENTS WITH HIM, AND BECAUSE HE HAS INVOLVEMENT OR RELATIONS WITH OTHER
BUSINESS, HE MAY HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
Our officer does not work for us on a full-time basis and we have no definitive
arrangement to compensate our officer or to engage him on a full-time basis. In
the event that our officer resigns because of time restraints or financial
reasons, this could adversely affect our ability to carry on business and could
reduce the value of your investment in the shares or even cause our business to
fail.
Our officer relies on other business activities to support himself and he
provides services and/or consulting work to other companies in the mineral
exploration business. Such business activities may be considered a conflict of
interest because he must continually make decisions on how much of his time will
be allocated to our business as against his other business projects, which may
be competitive, or where he will allocate new business opportunities.
OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR HAS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT AS TO OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN.
Our financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that we will
continue as a going concern, but if we fail to continue as a going concern,
5
investors will lose their investment in the shares. The report of our
independent auditor refers to the substantial doubt as to our ability to
continue as a going concern.
OUR SHARES ARE CONSIDERED PENNY STOCK WHICH MAY LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO SELL THE
STOCK.
Our shares are considered penny stock under the Exchange Act. The shares will
remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock
makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary
market, thus limiting investment liquidity. Any broker-dealer engaged by the
purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in our company will be
subject to rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Exchange Act. Rather than creating
a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to
sell penny stock.
WE WILL INCUR ONGOING COSTS AND EXPENSES FOR SEC REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE.
WITHOUT REVENUE WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REMAIN IN COMPLIANCE, MAKING IT DIFFICULT
FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES, IF AT ALL.
Our shares are quoted on FINRA's Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB). To be
eligible for quotation, issuers must remain current in their filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In order for us to remain in compliance we
will require future revenues to cover the cost of these filings, which could
comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources. If we are unable
to generate sufficient revenues to remain in compliance it may be difficult for
investors to resell any shares, if at all.
OUR OFFICER AND DIRECTOR OWNS A LARGE BLOCK OF OUR OUTSTANDING STOCK AND WILL
HAVE THE RIGHT TO EFFECTIVELY CONTROL THE COMPANY.
Our present officer and director controls approximately 48% of our outstanding
common stock.
He may be able to influence the outcome of shareholder votes, including votes
concerning the election of directors, amendments to our charter and bylaws, and
the approval of significant corporate transactions such as a merger or sale of
our assets. In addition, that controlling influence could have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company.
WE HAVE NEVER PAID DIVIDENDS TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS, AND WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE THAT
WE WILL PAY ANY DIVIDENDS TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
Our future policy on payment of dividends will be determined by our Board of
Directors based upon a consideration of our earnings, if any, our future capital
needs and other relevant factors.
SOME HOLDERS OF OUR SECURITIES MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO RESCIND THEIR PURCHASES. IF
THESE SECURITY HOLDERS EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO RESCIND THEIR PURCHASES, OUR
OPERATIONS WILL BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED DUE TO THE COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH SUCH RESCISSION.
In April of 2007 we provided a registration statement and prospectus to certain
of our stockholders. We could not sell any securities under such registration
statement on file with the SEC, as the post effective amendment that had been
filed in regards to the shares had been filed and was pending but had not been
6
declared effective. The federal securities laws require registration of
securities unless an appropriate exemption from the registration requirements of
those laws is available. If it is determined that we sold securities under such
registration statement and that an exemption did not exist for the sale of these
securities, we may have violated registration requirements. If so, subsequent
purchasers of these shares could seek rescission of their purchase and recover
money paid for the securities. We make no admission of any violation of federal
securities laws and no investor has sought rescission of any purchase. The
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, requires that any claim for rescission be
brought within one year of the alleged violation. The time periods within which
claims for rescission must be brought under state securities laws vary and may
be two years or more from the date of the alleged violation. Further, we cannot
assure you that courts will not apply equitable or other doctrines to extend the
period within which purchasers may bring their claims. If any security holders
exercise their right to rescind their purchases, our operations will be
materially adversely affected as the costs associated with any rescission may be
high.
Should federal or state securities regulators deem it necessary to bring
administrative or legal actions against us based upon these disclosures, the
defence of any enforcement action is likely to be costly, distracting to our
management and if unsuccessful could result in the imposition of significant
penalties. The filing of a claim for rescission or enforcement action against us
or our officers or directors could materially and adversely impact our stock
price, generate significant adverse publicity that materially affects our
operations and materially impair our ability to raise capital through future
sales of our securities
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company's corporate offices are located at 575 Anton Blvd., Suite 300, Costa
Mesa, CA 92626. The offices are shared office space with available furnished
private offices and mini-suites, plus two meeting rooms, for which the company
pays $65 per month. We currently have no investment policies as they pertain to
real estate, real estate interests or real estate mortgages.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings and we are not aware of
any pending or potential legal actions.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND
ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Our shares are quoted on FINRA's OTC Electronic Bulletin Board (OTCBB), sumbol
"AWSS".
There has been no active trading of our securities, and, therefore, no high and
low bid pricing. We currently have 31 shareholders of record.
DIVIDENDS
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. For the
foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development
and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash
dividends on our common stock.
SECTION RULE 15(G) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
The Company's shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on
broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established
customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess
of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual
income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For
transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser's
written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule
may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may
affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market.
Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on
broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary
of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny
stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in
understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as "bid" and
"offer" quotes, a dealers "spread" and broker/dealer compensation; the
broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers,
including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules;
and the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock
transactions.
PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS
There were no shares of common stock or other securities issued to the issuer or
affiliated purchasers during the year ended May 31, 2010.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our
current views with respect to future events and financial performance.
Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect,
estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which,
by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on
these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this
report. These forward-looking states are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical results or out predictions.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We are still in our exploration stage and have generated no revenues to date.
We incurred operating expenses of $11,126 and $27,038 for the years ended May
31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These expenses consisted of exploration
expenses, general operating expenses and professional fees incurred in
connection with the day to day operation of our business and the preparation and
filing of our reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our net loss from inception (May 30, 2007) through May 31, 2010 was $60,657.
We have sold $80,000 in equity securities to fund our operations to date. On May
30, 2007, we issued 3,000,000 common shares at $0.005 per share or $15,000 to
our officer and director and on February 18, 2008, we issued 3,250,000 common
shares at $0.02 per share or $65,000.
The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the
year ended May 31, 2010.
Balance Sheet Data: 5/31/10
------------------- -------
Cash $ 343
Total assets $24,343
Total liabilities $ 5,000
Shareholders' equity $19,343
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash balance at May 31, 2010 was $343 with $5,000 in outstanding
liabilities. We are an exploration stage company and have generated no revenue
to date. Management believes our current cash balance is not sufficient to fund
our operating activities over the next 12 months.

PLAN OF OPERATION
On November 4, 2009 the Company signed a Letter of Intent with Suntech Energy of
British Columbia to establish the basic terms to be used in a future asset
purchase between the Company and Suntech Energy. The Agreement was to become
effective on or before March 31, 2010. The letter of intent expired without
having concluded the Agreement, however; discussion our currently underway for
another Letter of Intent with Suntech Energy. Our plan of operation for the next
twelve months is to complete the Agreement with Suntech Energy. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to do so. If we are unable to complete the
agreement with Suntech Energy or alternatively, find another business
opportunity, our shareholders will lose some or all of their investment and our
business will likely fail.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders of
Ameriwest Minerals Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
North Las Vegas,NV
We have audited the balance sheets of Ameriwest Minerals Corp. ("the Company")
as of May 31, 2010 and 2009, and the statements of operations, shareholders'
equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from May 30,
2007 (inception) to May 31, 2010. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatements. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of at the Company as of May 31,
2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years
then ended and for the period from inception through May 31, 2010, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the Company has incurred losses since inception, has not attained
profitable operations and is dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to
fulfill its exploration activities. These factors raise substantial doubts about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in
regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

AMERIWEST MINERALS CORP.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
As of May 31, 2010
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Ameriwest Minerals Corp. was incorporated in Nevada on May 30, 2007. Ameriwest
is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by ASC No. 915 DEVELOPMENT STAGE
ENTITIES. Ameriwest's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of
mineral resources.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Earnings Per Share. The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing
the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted
on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the year ended May 31, 2010,
there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of the statement of cash flows,
Ameriwest considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Mineral Property Costs. Ameriwest has been in the exploration stage since its
inception and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It
is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties.
Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically
developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs
then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be
amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the
probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired,
any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
Financial Instruments. Financial instruments, which include cash, accrued
liabilities and due to related parties were estimated to approximate their
carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial
instruments.
Income Taxes. Ameriwest recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in
effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Ameriwest provides a
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider
realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Notes to Financial Statements
As of May 31, 2010
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CON'T.)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Ameriwest does not expect the
adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant
impact on their results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
implies Ameriwest will continue to realize its assets and discharge its
liabilities in the normal course of business. Ameriwest has never generated
revenues since inception and is unlikely to generate earnings in the immediate
or foreseeable future. The continuation of Ameriwest as a going concern is
dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the
ability of Ameriwest to obtain necessary equity financing to continue
operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As of May 31, 2010,
Ameriwest has accumulated losses since inception. These factors raise
substantial doubt regarding Ameriwest's ability to continue as a going concern.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability
and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary should Ameriwest be unable to continue as a going
concern.
NOTE 3. COMMON STOCK
On May 30, 2007, Ameriwest issued 3,000,000 common shares at $0.005 per share or
$15,000.
On February 18, 2008, Ameriwest issued 3,250,000 common shares at $0.02 per
share or $65,000.
NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES
Ameriwest uses the asset and liability method, where deferred tax assets and
liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of
temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial and income tax reporting purposes. During fiscal 2010, Ameriwest
incurred a net loss and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax
asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The
cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is $60,657 at May 31, 2010, and will
begin to expire in 2027.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including
our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer (our
president), we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the
end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the
evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective
such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and
Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during
the period when this report was being prepared.
MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the company.
Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness
of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal
control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In
addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective
in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in
the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant
deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a
material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected.
19
Under the supervision and with the participation of our president, management
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting, as of May 31, 2010, based on the framework set forth in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under
this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial
reporting was not effective as of the evaluation date due to the factors stated
below.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting as of evaluation date and identified the following material
weaknesses:
INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite
expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.
INADEQUATE SEGREGATION OF DUTIES: We have an inadequate number of personnel to
properly implement control procedures.
LACK OF AUDIT COMMITTEE & OUTSIDE DIRECTORS ON THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
We do not have a functioning audit committee or outside directors on our board
of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and
monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue
to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist
the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the
frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will
mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel
and (3) may consider appointing outside directors and audit committee members in
the future.
Management, including our president, has discussed the material weakness noted
above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature
of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that
misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial
statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management's report was not subject to attestation by the our registered public
accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide
only management's report in this annual report.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended May 31, 2010
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
