CRITICAL DIGITAL DATA, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Critical Digital Data, Inc. is a Nevada Corporation (the “Company” or “CDD”) incorporated on May 2, 2008, with its principal place of business in San Diego, California.  CDD is a development stage company that is developing and operating a direct-to-consumer online data storage service (“HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application,” or “Digital Vault”) specifically for data preservation and disaster recovery. As well, CDD is developing, marketing and licensing the HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application as an OEM/private label solution.  The DigitalVault enables subscribers to create a “back-up” copy of their most critical documents and electronic personal data, in an off-site secure location.  We are operating the direct-to-consumer business of CDD under the service and brand name “HomeDataGuard” (sometimes herein referred to as “HDG”).

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

No assurance can be given that a market for the CDD product will develop, or that customers will be willing to pay for the CDD product.  For the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company incurred net losses totaling $40,945; had net cash used in operating activities totaling $14,047; and had an accumulated deficit of $152,190 as of December 31, 2009.  If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations and/or continue to obtain financing to meet its working capital requirements, it may have to curtail its business sharply or cease business altogether.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern on a longer-term basis will be dependent upon the ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet its obligations on a timely basis and the ability to ultimately attain profitability. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company has paid for the development of the Digital Vault through the borrowing of funds from an entity controlled by the major shareholders of CDD (See Note 4 – Related Party Transactions) as well as through the sale of shares of its own common stock (See Note 5-Stockholders’ Equity).  Additionally, while the Company has been successful in the past in raising capital, no assurance can be given that these sources of financing will continue to be available to the Company and/or that demand for the Company’s equity instruments will be sufficient to meet its capital
needs.

Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and market the Digital Vault will be sufficient to enable the Company to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of CDD have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and applicable regulations of the U.S. 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 have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations have been included.  Our operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future quarters and the year ending September 30, 2010. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 29, 2009 which includes the audited financial statements and notes thereto of CDD as of September 30, 2009 and the risks factors contained therein.

Development Stage Company
The Company’s financial statements are presented as those of a development stage enterprise.  Activities during the development stage primarily include the creation of a business plan and the development and marketing of the Digital Vault and raising capital.

Fair Value Estimates
The Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet.  The fair value of an asset or liability is the amount at which it could be exchanged or settled in a current transaction between willing parties.  The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, prepaid assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.
  
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement that the services have been rendered to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.  Subscription revenues shall be recognized over the period benefited. Deferred revenues shall be recorded when cash has been collected, however the related service has not yet been provided.

During November 2009, CDD entered into a contract with a third party LLC (“LLC”) whereby CDD would provide a version of its online file cabinet to act as an integrated subsection of LLC’s website.  For each subscription of the file cabinet sold, CDD will receive a monthly licensing fee.  As an inducement for CDD to enter into the contract, LLC agreed to pay CDD  a monthly minimum fee of $1,750, of which the first three minimum monthly payments, totaling $5,250 were paid upon the execution of the contract..  As of December 31, 2009, CDD has recognized one month of revenues, or $1,750, under this contract and the remaining $3,500 of the prepayment is recorded as deferred revenue and included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses in the accompanying interim financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation
Stock based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with FASB ASC Nos. 718 and 505 for stock and stock options awarded in return for goods and services received. The expense is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects will occur and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to vest.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
 
Also during June 2009, the FASB issued guidance regarding financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities.  This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The implementation of this guidance had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued an update to business combination accounting. The new pronouncement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date fair value. This update significantly changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas, including the treatment of contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, transaction costs and restructuring costs. In addition, under the new guidelines, changes in an acquired entity’s deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period could impact income tax expense. The provisions of this standard will apply to any acquisitions we complete after October 1, 2009.

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In order to develop the Company’s Digital Vault and begin marketing of the Company, an entity owned by the founders of the CDD (the “Related Entity”) made payments to various consultants on behalf of the Company in the amount of $15,172.  Subsequently, CDD entered into a note payable agreement with the Related Entity evidencing the amount of the funds that had been paid to date (the “2008 Note Payable”).  The 2008 Note Payable bears interest at 10% per annum and is due on September 30, 2010.  During October 2009, CDD borrowed an additional $3,500 (the “2009 Note Payable”) from the Related Entity in order to continue developing and marketing the Digital Vault.    The 2009 Note Payable bears interest at 6% per annum and is due on October 5, 2010.   As of December 31, 2009, CDD had accrued interest totaling $2,671 related to both the 2009 and 2008 Note Payables.
 
The Company’s attorney is related to one of the founders of the Company and during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 has billed CDD $572 for the reimbursement of filing fees relating to CDD’s incorporation in the state of Nevada as well as its registration to do business in the state of California.  Such expenses are recorded as General and administrative expenses and included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party in the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the company sold 53,333 shares of its common stock at $.30 per share resulting in proceeds of $16,000. These shares are restricted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.
 
NOTE 6–STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

As of December 31, 2009, we have granted options to purchase a total of 271,500 shares of common stock under the Company Stock Option Plan.  The options were granted to advisors and consultants for services rendered at a price equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant.

The Company recognizes option expense ratably over the vesting periods.  For the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company recorded compensation expense related to options granted under the Plan of $12,900.

Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates.  Stock-based compensation expense was recorded net of estimated forfeitures for the three months ended December 31, 2009 such that expense was recorded only for those stock-based awards that are expected to vest.     
  
The fair value of option grants for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected dividend yield
0.00
Risk-free interest rate
1.50-2.5%
Expected volatility
70-90%
Expected life (in years)
3
 
10

 
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.  

Stock option activity under the Plan for the three months ended December 31, 2009 is summarized as follows:
 
   
Shares
   
Weighted Average
Exercise Price per
Share
   
Weighted Average
Remaining
Contractual Life
(in years)

Exercisable at December 31 2009
    261,500     $ 0.21       2.44     $ 28,516  
 
As of December 31, 2009, there was $1,741 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options.  The Company intends to issue new shares to satisfy share option exercises.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On August 27, 2009, CDD entered into an agreement with a consultant to solicit corporate sponsorship and promotion for HomeDataGuard as well as to provide business development activities for private label partnership opportunities.  The agreement calls for the payment of a retainer of $2,000 upon the execution of the agreement followed by monthly retainer of $2,000 in months two and three of the contract for a total of $6,000 for the three month term of the agreement.  As of December 31, 2009 the retainer portion of the agreement had been paid in full.  The agreement also calls for various payments to be made in cash and/or options based on performance, the execution of various sponsorship and/or promotion transactions, and the consultant’s participation on CDD’s Strategic Advisory Board.  The consultant has also been granted options to purchase 35,000 shares of common stock at $0.30 per share, all of which have vested as of December 31, 2009.  The agreement shall continue in force until terminated by either party with thirty days written notice.

11

 
On June 1, 2009, CDD entered into an agreement with a communications consultant to perform public relations and media relations services.  The agreement calls for payments of $1,500 in June 2009 and $2,000 per month thereafter.  The agreement shall continue in force until terminated by either party with thirty days written notice.  As of October 1, 2009, the parties agreed to place the agreement on hold until further notice.

NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management evaluated subsequent events of the Company through February 11, 2010 (the available for issuance date of the Financial Statements) and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the Financial Statements or disclosure in the Notes to the Financial Statements, except as follows:

On February 1, 2010, CDD entered into a contract with an additional third party LLC (“LLC2”) whereby CDD would provide a private labeled version of its DigitalVault as a new product line for LLC2.  For each subscription of the file cabinet sold, CDD will receive a minimum monthly licensing fee of $950.  As an inducement for CDD to enter into the contract, LLC2 agreed to pay CDD the first month’s minimum licensing fee of $950 plus development fees of $1700 upon execution of the agreement.

Secure online digital storage (back-up) and reproduction services via www.HomeDataGuard.com and HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application, and;
 
   
2)  
Access to independent service providers, “HomeDataPros®”, trained by us to provide confidential, efficient assistance in the conversion of customers’ printed documents to digital documents and assist in the account set-up for a secure HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet.
 
We are a development stage business and entered into our first private label licensing agreement of the DigitalVault in November 2009.  As of mid June, 2009, the HomeDataGuard.com website has been live and the HomeDataGuard Digital Vault Application is undergoing user testing.  Our common stock has been accepted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "CDIX".  However, there are currently no "market makers" making a market for our common stock.
 
Background
 
A person’s most important personal data is at risk from destruction or damage in fires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, landslides and other natural disasters, as well as theft. Such data includes but is not limited to homeowner insurance policies, personal estate documents, mortgage and real estate documentation, stock certificates, product warranties, photographs of assets/property, birth certificates, tax records, etc.  Most of this data oftentimes solely exists in physical paper-based form.
 
We believe that the average individual does not spend very much time or put much thought into organizing and consolidating his or her most important physical papers. Oftentimes, a person’s most valued and critical physical documents are dispersed amongst boxes in garages, in closets, file cabinets at home and at work, in piles in one’s bedroom or kitchen, in bank safety deposit boxes, personal home safes, albums, etc. Likewise electronically stored data is spread amongst hard drives, external hard drives, floppy disks, CD-ROMs, flash drives, in email accounts, etc. Other critical documentation and data may be held by advisors (attorneys, accountants, physicians), on diverse servers etc.
 
HomeDataGuard was developed with the intent to be a very simple-to-use and secure digital repository for the aggregation, organization, storage and rapid retrieval of that personal critical data.
 
HomeDataGuard
HomeDataGuard, comprised of the HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application and the HomeDataGuard.com website, will enable a Subscriber, at any time, to digitally transfer a digital copy of their personal documents and information (“upload” and/or “download”) to and from their HomeDataGuard file cabinet on-demand.  To facilitate the aggregation and uploading of a Subscriber’s personal information, HomeDataPros, who will be independent service providers trained by the Company to help subscribers scan, upload and organize their data, will be available in select geographic regions, commencing in San Diego County.

Companies in the information protection and storage services industry store and manage information in a variety of media formats, which can broadly be divided into physical and electronic records, and provide a wide range of services related to the records stored. Physical records may include paper documents, as well as all other non-electronic media such as microfilm and microfiche, master audio and videotapes, film, X-rays and blueprints. Digital records may include files retained on some form of hardware device and files in word processing formats, database formats, spreadsheets, digital photographs, digital videos, pdfs, rtfs, etc. HomeDataGuard’s services and functionality will be geared toward storing and protecting inactive or semi-active information in most any digital file format, which is not typically accessed frequently by its owners and updated only occasionally.
 
The HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application is designed to simulate a traditional bank-like physical vault containing a private room with a four-drawer file cabinet.   The virtual interface is extremely easy to use, and provides the Subscriber with a virtual experience that may feel very much like the real experience of opening and closing a file cabinet drawer, scrolling through file folders, inserting files inside folders, and moving folders around.
 
A Subscriber logs in and is presented with a video which shows a steel vault unlocking and its door opening, complete with sound effects.  The registered user is taken inside the vault to his/her personal secure file cabinet, which stands next to a whiteboard which contains instructions.  The Subscriber can choose to store, organize and/or retrieve their data by accessing the appropriate file drawer and folders presented within
 
The Subscriber clicks on one of the file cabinet drawers, which rolls open to display the file folders contained inside.   When the Subscriber scrolls over a folder and selects to open it, the folder displays thumbnail images of the files contained within.  The Subscriber can upload a file into a pre-named folder.    The top two drawers contain several pre-named folders to help a Subscriber get started and be organized.  The Subscriber may also create dozens of new folders, edit folders, even move them to other drawers.  Subscribers have the ability to choose which folders and drawers to place their important data inside.  The website will provide guidance, prompts and checklists to subscribers, and ensure that they are reminded several times per year to make necessary updates, changes and/or add new information to their digital file cabinet.
 
When a Subscriber opens an account they initially do so with the purpose of storing important personal data and documents within their own private secure HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet.   In order to transfer documents or information to one’s HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet, that data must first exist in a digital format (“digital copy”.) It is then uploaded via the Internet to HomeDataGuard’s servers.   If the data does not pre-exist in a digital format, it would need to be converted by one of several methods, including but not limited to: being scanned; being faxed to a digital destination; be digitally photographed; or made into a digital movie.
 
Personal files can be uploaded by the Subscriber or for a fee by a HomeDataPro® or other trained professional.  To store the digital copies into their personal file cabinets, Subscribers would follow the prompts on the site.  Users are prompted to determine which named file folder to place the digital copies into, for organizational purposes.
 
 
Subscribers will be able to select an annual or monthly payment subscription plan, for access to their four drawer file cabinet (the “Basic” HomeDataGuard OnlineFile Cabinet.)  A subscriber can obtain, automatically, as much additional digital storage space as they need beyond the initial 4 gigabytes provided, and will be charged for each additional incremental gigabyte of space used on a monthly basis.

Data Access and Maintenance
Once a digital copy is uploaded to a Subscriber’s personal file cabinet, it is easily accessible to that Subscriber anytime from any hardware device that can access the Internet and download that file from HomeDataGuard.   Only that Subscriber will have access, unless he/she provides the username and password information directly to another party.  HomeDataGuard will, via email notifications, suggest that Subscribers change their password every few months and remind them to update their account information and add fresh data to their file cabinets if warranted.

Data Storage Functionality & Encryption
Data storage space is currently leased from Media Temple and Amazon Web Services. In the future, CDD may select other storage and hosting providers that meet HomeDataGuard’s system’s requirements.    All files uploaded to HomeDataGuard by its subscribers are always immediately and automatically encrypted before they are stored on our servers.

HomeDataPros®
We intend to recommend trained and qualified independent professionals, who the company has certified as “HomeDataPros®.”   HomeDataPros® will be trained by us to provide confidential, efficient assistance in the conversion of customers’  documents and information to digital copies and assist in the account set-up and uploading to  a secure online HomeDataGuard  Online File Cabinet.
 
HomeDataPros® will assist the user in the following activities: document scanning; creating digital video recordings of personal property and home inventory; digitally photographing property; and uploading any Subscriber-requested digital copies to the personal file cabinet on www.HomeDataGuard.com.
 
Market for HomeDataGuard
We anticipate that our initial customers will be consumer households that reside in San Diego County and other geographic locations where there is a high risk of damage to homes as a result of fires, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes and other disasters.

Market for Private Labeling the HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application
We anticipate that there will be an interest by other companies to private label the HomeDataGuard Personal Digital Vault Application, and are aggressively pursuing business development initiatives to seek out such relationships.

On November 18, 2009, the Company entered into a one year contract with a company who is  private labeling a limited version of the HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet.  This licensee offers consumers a bundled product offering providing several identity theft and fraud protection services, including the secure online document storage provided by CDD.

Revenue
We expect to derive our revenue primarily from monthly license fees paid by the private label customers of the DigitalVault, and through initial and recurring subscription revenues to HomeDataGuard.com.  We expect that the typical private label customer will pay based upon a monthly revenue formula that includes total number of user/subscriber accounts and the total amount of storage space utilized.

For business-to-consumer subscriptions, it is anticipated that customers will subscribe for an annual license, at this time expected to start at $49.95 per year or $4.95 per month for a HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet and that a portion of those subscribers will renew annually.  Starting with 4 gigabytes of storage space, a HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet account will automatically expand its storage space on demand, and charge the subscriber for each incremental gigabyte of digital storage space used.
 
A la carte services provided by HomeDataPros® will be charged by the service provided and will be priced based upon time and services provided.

Growth Strategy
Our objective for HomeDataGuard.com is to establish a leadership position in the niche of record protection and storage services of critical personal information, protecting and storing our customers’ information without regard to media format or geographic location. Our primary avenues of growth are expected to be: (1) acquire consumer household customers within the US and Canada, starting within fire-prone and earthquake-prone regions of California; (2) establish and expand a workforce of HomeDataPro® professionals in those regions; (3) eventually expand into other regions of the United States.

Our objective for private labeling is to establish a leadership position in the niche of consumer-centric OEM online storage solutions which companies can provide to their customers/members/employees as a free benefit or as a revenue-generating service for any data-storage related purpose.  Our primary avenues of growth are expected to be: (1) acquire private label customers from non-competing industry sectors within the domestic U.S.; (2) acquire larger, institutional private label customers domestically and internationally.
 
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright, trade secret and patent laws in the United States as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary technology and our brand. HomeDataGuard™ and HomeDataPro® are not registered trademarks as of the date of this S-1filing. An application to register HomeDataPro® as a service mark was submitted to the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office, as well as a follow-up Response to Office Action statement, and is expected to be granted within the next three to six months. The owners of the filed service mark are our co-founders, Dina Moskowitz & Marc Zimmerman who have agreed to assign the service mark to us.
 
In September 2008 the company submitted a copyright application to the U.S. Copyright Office for the HomeDataGuard.com Personal Digital Vault Application.  As of December 5, 2008, we have received confirmation that the copyright has been granted effective November 19, 2008.
 
We also rely on copyright laws to protect copy on our web site and all marketing materials. We have registered at least 40 Internet domain names related to our business in order to protect our proprietary interests. From time to time, we may encounter disputes over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm our business, our brand and reputation, or our ability to compete. Also, protecting our intellectual property rights could be costly and time consuming.
 
On February 2, 2009, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with a third party software development firm for a non-exclusive, perpetual and non-sublicensible right to use  certain proprietary software code for the Digital Vault application and HomeDataGuard website.  This relationship was terminated in September 2009 and the related proprietary software code has been removed from the Digital Vault application and HomeDataGuard website.

On November 18, 2009, the Company entered into a one year contract with a company which is private labeling the HomeDataGuard Online File Cabinet.  The company is offering consumers a bundled product offering providing several identity theft and fraud protection services, including the secure online document storage provided by CDD.

At the present time our Chief Executive Officer, Dina Moskowitz, and our President, Marc Zimmerman, are our only employees as well as our sole officers, directors and major shareholders.  Ms. Moskowitz and Mr. Zimmerman will devote such time as required to actively market and further develop our services and software products.  At present, we expect Ms. Moskowitz and Mr. Zimmerman to each devote at least 20 hours per week to our business.  Our executive officers have not received any compensation since the date of our incorporation, and we did not accrue any compensation. We do not anticipate hiring any additional employees until such time as additional staff is required to support our operations.

·  
Various general and administrative fees consisting primarily of the monthly liability insurance, depreciation, internet and web design services and office expenses totaled approximately $46,000 for the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009

Other Expenses
During the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company incurred $466 and $382, respectively of other expenses resulting from interest incurred on notes payable to a related entity.  During the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009 the Company incurred $4,271 of other expenses of which $1,600 represents the state minimum tax imposed on corporations and $2,671 results from interest incurred on the notes payable. In order to develop the Company’s Digital Vault and begin marketing of the Company, an entity owned by the founders of CDD (the “Related Entity”) made payments to various consultants on behalf of the Company in the amount of $15,172.  Subsequently, CDD entered into a note payable agreement with the Related Entity evidencing the amount of the funds that had been paid to date (the “2008 Note Payable”).  The 2008 Note Payable bears interest at 10% per annum and is due on September 30, 2010.  During October 2009, CDD borrowed an additional $3,500 (the “2009 Note Payable”) from the Related Entity in order to continue developing and marketing the Digital Vault.    The 2009 Note Payable bears interest at 6% per annum and is due on October 5, 2010.   As of December 31, 2009, CDD had accrued interest totaling $2,671 related to both the 2009 and 2008 Note Payables.

Net Loss
During the three months ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009 the Company incurred a net loss of $40,945, and $152,190 respectively, due primarily to operating expenses as described above.
 
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Net cash used in operating activities was $14,047, $7,266 and $72,987 for the three months ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and for the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009, respectively and is primarily attributable to the payment of marketing and professional fees, liability insurance and office expenses.

18

 
Net cash used in investing activities was $7,000, $4,225 and $46,149 for the three months ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and for the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009, respectively, resulting from the development of the HomeDataGuard Online Digital Vault.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and for the period from May 2, 2008 (Inception) through December 31, 2009 was $19,500, $7,000 and $126,950, respectively and resulted primarily from the Company’s sale of its common stock via private placement memorandums during each respective period.

We currently rely on cash flows from financing activities to fund our capital expenditures and to support our working capital requirements. We expect that future cash requirements will principally be for capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may continue to incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
