NORTHUMBERLAND RESOURCES, INC.

(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Northumberland Resources, Inc. (“Northumberland”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s registration statement filed with the SEC on Form S-1/A on July 2, 2010.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 as reported in the Company’s registration statement, have been omitted.


NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN


Northumberland has recurring losses and has a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $37,421 as of June 30, 2010.  Northumberland's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, Northumberland has no current source of revenue. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for Northumberland to continue as a going concern.  Northumberland’s management plans on raising cash from public or private debt or equity financing, on an as needed basis and in the longer term, revenues from the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral interests, if found. Northumberland’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on these additional cash financings, and, ultimately, upon achieving profitable operations through the development of mineral interests or otherwise.  


NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS


Northumberland neither owns nor leases any real or personal property, an officer has provided office services without charge.  Such costs are immaterial to the financial statements and accordingly are not reflected herein.  The officers and directors are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.


A shareholder of the Company has offered a shareholder loan facility up to $80,000.  The loan facility is unsecured and bears interest at 5% per annum and is payable on demand after June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2010, the amount outstanding under the shareholder loan was $ nil.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION  

Forward-looking statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" relating to the registrant which represent the registrant's current expectations or beliefs, including statements concerning registrant’s operations, performance, financial condition and growth.  For this purpose, any statement contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may", "anticipation", "intend", "could", "estimate", or "continue" or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, such as credit losses, dependence on management and key personnel and variability of quarterly results, ability of registrant to continue its growth strategy and competition, certain of which are beyond the registrant's control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set forth in the Company’s audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2009.

Overview

We are in the business of precious minerals exploration. We currently own four mineral claims, collectively named the “BARD 1-4 Property,” situated in the Paymaster Canyon area of Esmeralda County in west-central Nevada. We do not have any current plans to acquire interests in additional mineral properties, though we may consider such acquisitions in the future.  

The BARD 1-4 Property is the subject of a geological report prepared by James W. McLeod, P. Geo., dated July 18, 2009. According to the report, the base and precious metal deposit types that historically predominate in the general area of the BARD 1-4 Property are the copper-gold or copper-molybdenum porphyry occurrences with peripheral base and precious metal occurrences as veins and/or contact zones of mineralization.

There is no assurance that a commercially viable precious minerals deposit exists on the BARD 1-4 Property.

Plan of Operation

Our plan of operations is to carry out exploration of the BARD 1-4 Property.

Mineral property exploration is typically conducted in phases.  Each subsequent phase of exploration work is recommended by a geologist based on the results from the most recent phase of exploration. In his geological report, Mr. McLeod recommends a three phase process of exploration.  We have not yet commenced the initial phase of exploration.  Once we have completed each phase of exploration, we will make a decision as to whether or not we proceed with the next phase based upon the analysis of the results of that program.

We expect to complete Phase One and (if warranted by results from phase One explorations) Phase Two explorations within the next 12 months. Our business plans after the next 12 months will depend upon the results from preceding exploration activities. Assuming Phase Three exploration activities



7






are warranted by the results from Phase Two exploration activities, we will execute Phase Three exploration plans after the next 12 months.

Even if we complete our current exploration program and it is successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral deposit or reserve. This will necessitate raising additional funds, as the funds available to us through equity investments and shareholder loan commitments will not be sufficient to carry us forward.

If our exploration activities indicate that there are no commercially viable gold deposits on our mineral claim, we will abandon the claim and stake a new claim to explore in Nevada. We will continue to stake and explore claims in Nevada as long as we can afford to do so.

Results of Operations


Three Months Ended June 30, 2010


Revenues


We did not generate any revenues during the reporting period.


Expenses


We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $12,677 for the same period.


Net Loss


We incurred a net loss from operations of $12,677 during the three months ended June 30, 2010.


Six Months Ended June 30, 2010


Revenues


We did not generate any revenues during the reporting period.


Expenses


We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $26,568 for the same period.


Net Loss


We incurred a net loss from operations of $26,568 during the six months ended June 30, 2010.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Since its inception, the Company has financed its cash requirements from the sale of common stock. Uses of funds have included activities to establish our business, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses.


The Company’s principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2010 consisted of $13,910 in cash and cash equivalents and a shareholder loan facility from a director and principal shareholder.




8






Under the shareholder loan facility from B. Geoffrey Scales, loan advances to or on behalf of the Company bear interest at 5% per annum, calculated and compounded annually, not in advance. The Company is required to repay the outstanding principal and interest at any time after June 30, 2011, on demand. Prepayment of all or a portion of the outstanding principal and interest may be made by the Company at any time without notice, bonus or penalty.


The amount outstanding under shareholder loan facilities was $ nil as of June 30, 2010.


We believe the Company will have adequate resources to implement its strategic objectives in upcoming quarters. Due to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues, however, our auditors have stated their opinion that there currently exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


Material Events and Uncertainties


Our operating results are difficult to forecast. Our prospects should be evaluated in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties commonly encountered by comparable exploration stage companies.


There can be no assurance that we will successfully address such risks, expenses and difficulties.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Disclosure controls and procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the Certifying Officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the disclosure controls and procedures in place were adequate to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.

Internal control over financial reporting

The Certifying Officers reviewed our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) under the Exchange Act as of the Evaluation Date and concluded that no changes occurred in such control or in other factors during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
