Note 1 – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of business
Passionate Pet, Inc. (the Company) was formed in the State of Nevada on September 30, 2010. On September 30, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Passionate Pet, Inc. a California Corporation under common ownership that was organized on April 23, 2009 to provide retail sales of pet supplies and services. The Company’s retail facility occupies an approximately 23,598-sq. ft. facility located in Irvine, CA, forty miles south of Los Angeles. In addition, the Company is renovating a 25,000 square foot facility in Mission Viejo, California in anticipation of opening a second retail location expected to open in July or August of this year.

The Company also sells products in bulk from time to time.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which are under common control and ownership:

Name of Entity
 
Form of Entity
 
State of Incorporation
 
Relationship
             
Passionate Pet, Inc.
 
Corporation
 
Nevada
 
Parent
Passionate Pet, Inc.
 
Corporation
 
California
 
Subsidiary

The condensed consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly owned CA subsidiary that was acquired on September 30, 2010 because each entity is owned beneficially by the same shareholder. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.

The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of September 30th.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to not make the information presented misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended September 30, 2010 and notes thereto included in the Company's S-1/A report as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2011. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (average cost) or market (net realizable value) and consist of the following:
 
   
March 31,
2011
   
September 30,
2010
 
             
Goods available for sale
  $ 174,996     $ 181,470

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
 
No reserve for obsolete inventories has been recognized. The Company’s vendors replace damaged inventory as necessary.

Property and equipment
Equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:
 
Furniture and fixtures 7 years
Machinery and equipment 7 years
Software and hardware 5 years
Leasehold improvements 10 years
Assets held under capital leases 7 years
 
Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets due to transfer of ownership after the lease term has expired.

Maintenance and repairs will be charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

The Company will assess the recoverability of equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

Segment reporting
FASB ASC 280-10-50 requires annual and interim reporting for an enterprise’s operating segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major customers. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and expenses, and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources. All of the Company’s stores are considered operating segments, and will be aggregated into one reportable segment given the similarities in economic characteristics among the operations represented by the stores and the common nature of the products, customers and methods of distribution. As of March 31, 2011, we only had one retail store that sells retail and bulk sales of pet supplies, and provide services such as, pet grooming and boarding in operation. Another retail location is being renovated in anticipation of a July or August, 2011 grand opening.

Fair value of financial instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no other items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

Revenue recognition
Sales are recorded when products are delivered to customers and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Estimates for sales returns and other allowances are generated from our review of monthly sales versus subsequent returns, and receipt of payments. Typically, subsequent returns consist of less than 1% of monthly sales. The Company defers any revenue from boarding or grooming services for which the service has not been performed until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the service has been performed or no refund will be required.

Cost of merchandise sales and occupancy costs
Cost of merchandise sales and occupancy costs includes the following types of expenses: purchase price of inventory sold, including inbound freight charges; shipping and handling costs; inventory shrinkage costs and valuation adjustments; payroll and benefits costs; store occupancy costs, including rent, common area maintenance, property taxes, utilities, insurance, and depreciation of leasehold improvements and capitalized lease assets. Also included in cost of merchandise sales and occupancy costs is certain consideration received from vendors for vendor rebates, allowances and discounts.

Cost of services sales
Cost of services sales includes the following types of expenses: payroll and benefit costs, as well as, professional fees for outsourced groomers and trainers, in addition to other direct costs of the services line of business.

Pre-opening costs
Costs incurred in connection with opening new stores are expensed as incurred and are recorded in general and administrative expenses. Such costs include initial store supplies, rent and utilities.

Advertising and promotion
All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses approximated $10,833 and $31,923 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Deferred rent obligation
The Company has entered into operating lease agreements for its corporate office and retail location which contains provisions for future rent increases. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company records monthly rent expense equal to the total of the payments due over the lease term, divided by the number of months of the lease term. The difference between rent expense recorded and the amount paid is credited or charged to “Deferred rent obligation,” which is reflected as a separate line item in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

Income taxes
The Company 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. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Basic and diluted loss 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 periods presented, there were no outstanding potential common stock equivalents and therefore basic and diluted earnings per share result in the same figure.

Stock-based compensation
The Company adopted FASB guidance on stock based compensation upon inception at April 23, 2009. Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. For the periods presented, there were no share-based payments to employees, or otherwise.

Uncertain tax positions
Effective upon inception at April 23, 2009, the Company adopted new standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.

The assessment of the Company’s tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various filing positions. As of March 31, 2011 the company had no uncertain tax positions.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of supplementary pro forma information for business combinations.”  This update changes the disclosure of pro forma information for business combinations.  These changes clarify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only.  Also, the existing supplemental pro forma disclosures were expanded to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings.  These changes become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011.  The Company’s adoption of this update did not have an impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, “Intangible –Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts.”  This update requires an entity to perform all steps in the test for a reporting unit whose carrying value is zero or negative if it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that a goodwill impairment exists based on qualitative factors, resulting in the elimination of an entity’s ability to assert that such a reporting unit’s goodwill is not impaired and additional testing is not necessary despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate otherwise.  These changes become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-18 regarding improving comparability by eliminating diversity in practice about the treatment of modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 – Receivable – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (“Subtopic 310-30”). Furthermore, the amendments clarify guidance about maintaining the integrity of a pool as the unit of accounting for acquired loans with credit deterioration.  Loans accounted for individually under Subtopic 310-30 continue to be subject to the troubled debt restructuring accounting provisions within Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors.  The amendments in this Update are effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010.  The amendments are to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 regarding subsequent events and amendments to certain recognition and disclosure requirements. Under this ASU, a public company that is a SEC filer, as defined, is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This ASU is effective upon the issuance of this ASU. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 regarding fair value measurements and disclosures and improvement in the disclosure about fair value measurements.  This ASU requires additional disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of fair value measurements, including a description of the reasons for the transfers.  Further, this ASU requires additional disclosures for the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements.  This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, we do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.

As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of ($1,657,042), and as of March 31, 2011, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,533,251 and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $1,429,252. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new ventures to increase revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10 upon inception at April 23, 2009. Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.  The three levels are as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company doesn’t have any financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard.

Note 9 – Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $1,944,000 and $1,022,000 of federal net operating losses, respectively. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2029.

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset are as follows:

   
March 31,
   
September 30,
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
Deferred tax assets:
           
  Net operating loss carry forwards
  $ 680,400     $ 357,700  
                 
Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance
  $ 680,400     $ 357,700  
  Less: Valuation allowance
    (680,400 )     (357,700 )
    Net deferred tax assets
  $ -     $ -  

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2011. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2011.

A reconciliation between the amounts of income tax benefit determined by applying the applicable U.S. and State statutory income tax rate to pre-tax loss is as follows:

   
March 31,
   
September 30,
 
   
2011

Note 10 – Future Minimum Lease Payments

The Company leases certain equipment under agreements that are classified as capital leases. The cost of equipment under capital leases is included in the Balance Sheets as property and equipment and was $44,962 and $44,962 at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively. Accumulated amortization of the leased equipment at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010 was $9,099 and $5,888, respectively. Amortization of assets under capital leases is included in depreciation and amortization expense.

We also lease our office space and facility in Irvine, California under a 10-year operating lease expiring October 31, 2019. The lease provides for increases in future minimum annual rental payments based on defined annual increases beginning with monthly payments of $12,389 and culminating in a monthly payment of $35,397 in 2019. The Company is also obligated for related occupancy costs including property taxes, insurance and maintenance. The lease contains provisions for future rent increases, rent free periods, and periods in which rent payments were reduced (abated). The total amount of rental payments due over the lease term is being charged to rent expense according to the straight-line method over the term of the lease. The difference between rent expense recorded and the amount paid is credited or charged to “Deferred rent obligation,” in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

We also entered into a lease on our new facility in development in Mission Viejo, California under a non-cancelable 10.5-year operating lease expiring June 30, 2021. The lease covering 25,000 square feet commences on February 1, 2011 and ends on June 30, 2021, with annual rents initially of $412,500 in monthly installments of $33,333, increasing by 12% every five years. The Company has the option and right to extend the original term of the lease for two periods of sixty months, commencing on expiration of the original term. Rents have been abated until July 1, 2011 while the location is being renovated to accommodate the planned operations. The Company is also obligated for related occupancy costs including property taxes, insurance and maintenance. The lease contains provisions for future rent increases, rent free periods, and periods in which rent payments were reduced (abated). The total amount of rental payments due over the lease term is being charged to rent expense according to the straight-line method over the term of the lease. The difference between rent expense recorded and the amount paid is credited or charged to “Deferred rent obligation,” in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

Rent expense was $308,257 and $218,937 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company was in default on its lease payments for its Irvine location, and entered into an amendment on January 26, 2011 to defer collection of base rents for the six month period from January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2011 until the last six months of the lease from February 1, 2019 through and including July 1, 2019 in exchange for payment of $175,390 of unpaid rents, which were subsequently paid in April of 2011. In addition, the lease was amended to provide the Company a one-time right to early termination upon written notice no later than July 1, 2011 subject to an early termination fee of $1,263,613. As of March 31, 2010, the Company owed $297,490 of past due rents, which were included in accounts payable.

Overview and Outlook

Passionate Pet, Inc. owns and operates a retail pet store which offers a combination of premium pet food and supplies. Our retail operations carry products that include pet grooming, pet day care, pet food, toys, novelty items, and books. The Company offers customers a full range of assorted pet related products at competitive prices. Since its inception, on April 23, 2009 Passionate Pet has incurred losses to March 31, 2011.

We expect to continue to incur losses for at least the next twelve months. We do not expect to generate revenue that is sufficient to cover our expenses, and we do not have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to execute our plan of operations for at least the next twelve months. We will need to obtain additional financing to conduct our day-to-day operations, and to fully execute our business plan. We plan to raise the capital necessary to fund our business through the sale of equity securities.

We are presently operating one retail store in Irvine, California which runs the Company’s operations and also provides retail premium pet food, supplies and service to the general public. Our retail store offers a combination of premium pet supplies, boarding, day camp, training, grooming, and spa services to our customers. The Company offers customers a full range of assorted pet related products at competitive prices.

Our principal source of operating capital has been provided from private sales of our common stock, revenues from operations, and, debt financings. At March 31, 2011, we had a negative working capital position of $1,533,251. During the six months ended March 31, 2011 we received proceeds of $50,000 on short term loans from our CEO, John Dunn, along with repayments of $52,500 during the same period. We also received an unsecured loan of $150,000 on May 11, 2011 carrying interest at 8% maturing on June 11, 2011. In addition, we received a total of $525,000 of unsecured loans from a total of eleven private lenders bearing interest at 5% with various maturity dates between March 15, 2011 and March 31, 2011. These loans are in default, and we anticipate that we will be able to repay these debts in shares of common stock. We are utilizing these funds to pay our rent obligations and build out our new retail facility in Mission Viejo, California. We do not have funds sufficient to fund our operations at their current level for the next twelve months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our CEO, John Dunn, carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on the evaluation, Mr. Dunn concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief financial officer, or person performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, for the following reasons:

·
The Company does not have an independent board of directors or audit committee or adequate segregation of duties.

·
We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting and lack segregation of duties due to the limited nature and resources of the Company.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Our Principal Executive Officer does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, other than those stated above, during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.
