NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
  
Note 1.  Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by Shearson American REIT, Inc. (“SART I” or “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although SART I believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, 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 omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the SART I’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.
 
Note 2.  Organization

Nature of the Company:
The Company changed its name in October, 2009 to Shearson American REIT, Inc. with the purpose of creating a Real Estate Investment Trust.  The Company wishes to be a fully integrated Real Estate Investment Trust and management firm that will acquire, develop, own, operate and sell real estate. We intend to invest primarily in institutional-quality multi-use and multi-family properties located throughout the United States. The Company contemplates utilizing HUD/GNMA securities backed financing for most of its projects.
 
Prior to the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centers in New York City on September 11, 2001, the Company, formerly PSA, Inc., was a holding company for entities that were developing interactive television format with the emerging digital broadcast and interactive technologies, and digital video production and post product services, as well as international tour, travel and entertainment products and services, including an e-commerce platform for purchasing travel services.  Most of the operations of the subsidiaries of the Company were located near the World Trade Center. As a result of the damage done to the Company’s subsidiaries and because of the decimation to the travel industry in general as a result of the event, the Company discontinued its operations near the end of 2001. The subsidiaries ultimately either were liquidated through bankruptcy or closed without any return to the Company of its investment in these subsidiaries.
 
The largest subsidiary held by the Company at the end of 2001, S.M.A. Real Time, Inc., declared bankruptcy in 2003 and was liquidated without any benefit to the Company in 2005.  The subsidiaries, Royal International Tours, Inc., Travel Treasures, Inc. and Jet Vacations were closed down without any benefit realized by the Company.
 
The Company had a pending contract with New York Network, LLC which would have included ten low power television licenses under the call sign WBVT-TV, another with Victory Entertainment Corp. and finally a contract with U.S. Dental, Inc.  The Company was unable to complete these acquisitions and any contract cost or advances made towards the acquisitions were lost.
 
Note 3.  Summary of Significant Accounting Polices and Use of Estimates.

Accounting Estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 
6

 
 
Net Loss per Share:

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, “Earnings per Share,” provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. The calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share include the effects of the rescissions and retractions of certain previously authorized shares and stock splits as further detailed in Note 6. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. Dilutive securities are not included in the weighted average number of shares when inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Income taxes:

The Company utilizes the liability method to account for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of existing temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax-reporting basis of assets and liabilities, and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards for tax purposes.
 
Going Concern:
 
The Company has limited finances and requires additional funding in order to accomplish its business objectives. There is no assurance that the Company can raise additional capital to allow it to achieve those business objectives.  The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations.  There is also no assurance that even if the Company manages to obtain adequate funding, that such funding will succeed in enhancing the Company’s business and will not ultimately have an adverse effect on the Company’s business and operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  As a result, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm issued a going concern opinion on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the quarter ended March  31, 2010 that are of significance, or potential significance, to us except as discussed below.

In February, 2010, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-09, Accounting for Subsequent Events, (“ASU 2010-09”), which is codified in FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“ASC”) Topic 855, Subsequent Events. This pronouncement states that SEC filers need not disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated.  The pronouncement was effective upon issuance and the Company has adopted the standard.

Note 4.  Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities consist of the following:
  
   
March 31,
   
December 31,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Litigation judgment
  $ 100,501     $ 100,501

Other accruals
    14,023       5,944  
                 
Total accrued liabilities
  $ 244,548     $ 221,163  

A judgment was entered against the Company in 2002 for $100,501. As of the date of this filing the judgment remains unpaid.  The Company has recorded the liability and the interest accrued thereon.  A judgment may be executed upon for 10 years from the date of entry.  This time may be extended if the judgment creditor refiles the judgment in the county it was originally issued in.  The Company disputes the judgment and has a continuing effort to settle this claim.

Note 5.  Income Taxes

As a result of net operating losses, the Company has not recorded a provision for income taxes. The components of the deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are as follows:
  
   
March 31,
   
December 31,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
             
Deferred tax assets:
           
Net operating loss carryforwards
  $ 1,702,000     $ 1,686,000  
                 
Total deferred tax assets
    1,702,000       1,686,000  
Less: valuation allowance
    (1,702,000 )     (1,686,000 )
                 
Net deferred taxes
  $     $  
 
As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4,250,000 and $4,200,000, respectively. The Company believes sufficient uncertainty exists regarding the realizability of the deferred tax assets such that a full valuation allowance is required.
 
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. There was no cumulative effect as a result of applying these provisions and no adjustment was made to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. Additionally, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or accrued amounts for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2010 or December 31, 2009, respectively. Future amounts of accrued interest expense and penalties, if any, will be recorded as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months.

Overview
 
Since SHEARSON became inactive after the events of September 11, 2001 the Company has had no business operations. On October 16, 2009 PSA changed its name to Shearson American REIT, Inc. for the sole purpose of becoming a real estate investment trust, or “REIT,” that will invest primarily in institutional-quality multi-use and multi-family properties located in the United States. In addition, we may invest in other real estate investments including, but not limited to, properties located outside of the United States, mortgage loans and ground leases. We wish to be a fully integrated global Real Estate Investment Trust that will acquire, develop, own, operate and sell real estate.  The Company contemplates utilizing HUD/GNMA securities backed financing for most of its projects. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify or successfully complete any such transactions.  As of the date of this report, we are not a party to any agreements providing for a business combination or other acquisition of assets. We may pay acquisition consideration in the form of cash, debt or equity securities or a combination thereof. In addition, as a part of our acquisition strategy we may consider raising additional capital through the issuance of equity or debt securities.
 
Prior to the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centers in New York City on September 11, 2001, the Company, formerly PSA, Inc., was a holding company for entities that were developing interactive television format with the emerging digital broadcast and interactive technologies, and digital video production and post product services, as well as international tour, travel and entertainment products and services,  including an e-commerce platform for purchasing travel services.  Most of the operations of the subsidiaries of the Company were located near the World Trade Center. As a result of the damage done to the Company’s subsidiaries and because of the decimation to the travel industry in general as a result of the event,  the Company discontinued its operations near the end of 2001. The subsidiaries ultimately either were liquidated through bankruptcy or closed without any return to the Company of its investment in these subsidiaries.
   
Results of Operations
   
For the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, our operations consisted of the following:
 
Revenues.  We had no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, and we do not presently have any revenue generating business.
 
General and administrative expenses.  General and administrative expenses consist primarily of legal and accounting services and travel costs.  General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were approximately $43,000 as compared to $-0- for the three month period ended March 31, 2009. The increase in expenses primarily resulted from the audit of the 2008 and 2009 financial statements and the related filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the three month period ended March 31, 2010.
  
 
10

 
 
Interest expense.  Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 of $5,307 and $4,824, respectively,  consist of interest on a judgment against the Company as further detailed in Note 4 in the Notes to  Financial Statements contained in this filing.
  
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
SHEARSON has not generated any revenue since the events of September 11, 2001. As a result, the Company’s primary source of liquidity prospectively will be from equity sources. There is no assurance that any such equity sources will be available or available on the terms favorable or acceptable to the Company.  Additionally, our ability to obtain such funds may be made more difficult due to the current global financial crisis and its effect on the capital markets.  As of March 31, 2010 the Company had no cash or cash equivalents.
 
On January 26, 2010, the Company received notice from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings (“IAP”) pursuant to Section 12(J) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”).  The IAP was instituted since the Company had been deficient in complying with the Company’s obligations under Exchange Act for several years. Specifically, the Company failed to file Form 10-Ks for the years ended December 31, 2000 through December 31, 2007.  In addition, the Form 10-Ks for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009 were not filed timely.  In addition, the Form 10-Qs for 2001 through 2009 were not filed.  As a consequence of the Company’s failure to file these reports, all of the Company’s securities were involuntarily deregistered pursuant to 12(j) of the Exchange Act which, in part, prohibits broker dealers from effecting transactions in the Company’s securities until the securities are registered.  Since the Company has not been active and has not attempted to raise capital, the deregistration has had no current impact on the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. However, the deregistration will have negative impact on the future liquidity and the Company’s ability to access capital resources. Accordingly, the Company filed a Form 10, General Form for Registration of Securities, with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 9, 2010.
 
During the first quarter of 2010, we utilized the occupied office space of our principal stockholder. The stockholder has waived its rights to be reimbursed for these costs.
 
We believe that we will obtain sufficient resources, obtained through loans from and sales of equity to our directors and other affiliates, to satisfy our existing and contingent liabilities and our anticipated operating expenses for the next twelve months. However, these parties have not entered into any agreements with us to provide any capital, and are under no obligation to do so.  Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient capital available to satisfy our existing and contingent liabilities and our anticipated operating expenses for the next twelve months.  Until such time as we actively pursue a business combination or asset acquisition, we expect these expenses to consist mainly of general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with maintaining our status as a publicly traded company. We have no commitments for capital expenditures and foresee none, except for possible future business combinations or asset acquisitions. In order to effect a business combination or asset acquisition, however, we may need financing or equity capital. There is no assurance that any such financing or capital will be available or available on terms favorable or acceptable to us. The Company’s operating losses and negative working capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2010 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
Summary of Cash Flows
 
There was no cash flow used or provided from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, we had no cash flows from investing or financing activities.
 
Commitments and Contingencies
 
We do not have any commitments or contingencies that we believe may be material to our financial statements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Not required for Smaller Reporting Companies.
  
Item 4.  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 principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of March 31, 2010.  Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.  However, management believes that our system of disclosure controls and procedures is designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance that the objectives of the system will be met.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There have not been changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
