NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2011
 
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Nature of Business
 
Northwest Resources, Inc. (“Northwest” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on May 21, 2010.  Northwest is an exploration stage company and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.  Northwest is currently in the process of exploring certain mining claims.
 
Use of 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 at the date of the balance sheet.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Basic Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
 
Mineral Properties
 
Cost of license acquisition, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Costs of acquisition are capitalized subject to impairment testing when facts and circumstances indicate impairment may exist.
 
Comprehensive Income
 
The Company has established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.  Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.
 
Income Tax
 
Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carryforwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of loss because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carryforward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2011

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Northwest Resources, Inc. 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.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the financial statements to be not misleading 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 2010 as reported in Form S-1, have been omitted.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Northwest does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

Northwest has recurring losses and has a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $17,309 as of May 31, 2011.  Northwest'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, Northwest has no current source of revenue. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for Northwest to continue as a going concern.  Northwest'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.  Northwest'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.

NOTE 3 - MINERAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

During the period ended May 31, 2011, the Company acquired a 100% interest in a mining claim in the County of Plumas in the state of California for cash consideration of $6,500.

  $ -  
 
The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:

   
May 31,
 
   
2011
 
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
     
Net operating loss carryover
  $ 5,885  
Less: valuation allowance
    (5,885 )
Net deferred tax asset
  $ -  

At May 31, 2011, Northwest had an unused net operating loss carryover approximating $17,300 that is available to offset future taxable income; it expires beginning in 2030.

NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK

At inception, Northwest issued 8,000,000 shares of stock at $0.0025 to its founding shareholder for $20,000 cash.
 
During the period ended May 31, 2011, Northwest issued 3,000,000 shares of common at $ 0.06 for $18,000 cash.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS

Northwest neither owns nor leases any real or personal property.  The officers and directors are involved in other business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.

NOTE 7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued.
 
 

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.  Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

We are an exploration stage mineral exploration company incorporated in Nevada on May 21, 2010.  On June 22, 2010, we acquired a 100% ownership interest in the Check and Checkmate placer mining claim located in Plumas County, California.  The Check and Checkmate claim is located on federal lands administered by the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management.  Our ownership rights on the claim are limited to the exploration and extraction of mineral deposits subject to applicable regulations.  The Check and Checkmate claim is roughly 70 acres in size and is located on Little Blackhawk Creek near Quincy, California.

We have performed an initial reconnaissance sampling program on our mining claim.  Our initial sampling program indicated the presence of gold in the sediments which were sampled, with the highest and coarsest populations of gold being located in samples from older mining excavations taken from at or near the bedrock. Based upon the results of our initial reconnaissance sampling program, our consulting geologist has recommended an additional program of bulk sampling from both stream sediments and waste piles from historical excavations, as well as geophysical investigations.   Our planned additional exploration activities will be designed to explore for indications that the Check and Checkmate claim may contain commercially viable quantities of gold.  We have not identified commercially exploitable reserves of gold or other precious metals on the Check and Checkmate claim to date.  We are an exploration stage company and there is no assurance that commercially viable gold quantities exist on the Check and Checkmate mineral claim.


Phase II and III Exploration Plan for the Check and Checkmate Claim

Our business plan is to proceed with the exploration of the Check and Checkmate mineral claim to determine whether there are commercially exploitable reserves of gold.  We intend to proceed with the additional exploration program as recommended by our consulting geologist.

Based on the results of our initial Phase 1 reconnaissance sampling program, our consulting geologist has recommended undertaking additional exploration activities.

Our planned additional exploration activities and their estimated costs are as follows:

   
Estimated Cost
Phase II
· Preparing and submitting permits for the use of mechanical excavating and processing equipment.
· Processing of the waste piles from selected historical excavations.
· Bulk sampling the waste piles developed from the Newton Pond excavation.
· Bulk sampling of the active stream sediments.
$15,000
Phase III
· Conducting geophysical investigations to determine the bedrock morphology to ascertain the location
of the “pay streak” and the extent of historical underground workings.
to be determined

We currently expected to commence Phase II in the late summer or early fall of 2011.  Our recent registered public offering was fully subscribed.  We therefore have sufficient funds available to complete Phase II of our exploration program in 2011. We will require additional financing in order complete Phase III of our planned exploration program and to undertake commercial gold production on the Check and Checkmate claim.  In the event that we are able to raise sufficient funds to undertake Phase III, we expect that phase to begin in early-mid 2012. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required.

Sampling and other data acquired during our exploration of the Check and Checkmate claim will ultimately determine whether the project will become economically viable.

 
Results of Operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2011 and for the period from May 21, 2010 (date of inception) through May 31, 2011

We have not earned any revenues since the inception of our current business operations.  We incurred expenses and a net loss in the amount of $3,948 for the three months ended May 31, 2011. We incurred expenses and a net loss of $5,567 for the six months ended May 31, 2011. We have incurred total expenses and a net loss of $17,309 from inception on May 21, 2010 through May 31, 2011.

Our losses are attributable to operating expenses together with a lack of any revenues.  We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we continue with our plan of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of May 31, 2011, we had current assets in the amount of $17,838, consisting entirely of cash. Our current liabilities as of May 31, 2011, were $3,647. Thus, we had working capital of $14,191 as of May 31, 2011.

Although we believe we have sufficient capital resources to complete Phase II of our exploration plan as outlined above, the longer-term success of our business plan will ultimately depend on our ability to raise additional capital. We will require significant additional capital in order to undertake Phase III of our exploration plan and to commence commercial gold production on our mineral claim following completion of our planned exploration activities.  We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

Going Concern

As discussed in the notes to our financial statements, we have no established source of revenue.  This has raised substantial doubt for our auditors about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for us to continue as a going concern.

Our activities to date have been supported by equity financing.  Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors to pursue its business plan. 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of May 31, 2011, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.


Critical Accounting Policies

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Currently, we do not believe that any accounting policies fit this definition.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.


A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.


We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of February 28, 2011.  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Taylor Edgerton.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of May 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.  There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Management determined that the material weaknesses that resulted in controls being ineffective are primarily due to lack of resources and number of employees. Material weaknesses exist in the segregation of duties required for effective controls and various reconciliation and control procedures not regularly performed due to the lack of staff and resources.
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
 
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error.   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 by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also 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. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
 
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.


A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
