VERVE VENTURES INC. (A Development Stage Company) Notes To The Financial Statements (Unaudited) July 31, 2011 1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS VERVE VENTURES INC.("the Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on February 23, 2010. The Company is in the development stage as defined under Statement on Financial Accounting Standards Codification FASB ASC 915-205"Development-Stage Entities." and it intends to provide waste removal and disposal services to corporate and individual clients in the United Kingdom. Our services will be focused on a client base that is willing to pay a premium to assure both social and environmental concerns are addressed in all aspects of waste collection and disposal. We intend to operate a fleet of vehicles and a sorting/storage facilities both of which will begin small and scalable. The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception, February 23, 2010 through July 31, 2011 the Company has accumulated losses of $29,728. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Basis of Presentation The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. b) Going Concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $29,728 as of July 31, 2011, and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of common stock. c) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. d) Use of Estimates and Assumptions 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 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. e) Foreign Currency Translation The Company's functional currency is the British Pound and its reporting currency is the United States dollar. 7
VERVE VENTURES INC. (A Development Stage Company) Notes To The Financial Statements (Unaudited) July 31, 2011 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) f) Financial Instruments Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820-10 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels: * Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available. * Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. * Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. For example, level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method. The recorded amounts of financial instruments, including cash equivalents accounts payable and accrued expenses, and long-term debt approximate their market values as of July 31, 2011 g) Stock-based Compensation We follow ASC 718-10, "Stock Compensation", which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 is a revision to SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related implementation guidance. ASC 718-10 requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized. The Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. The Company granted stock awards, at par value, to its officers, directors and advisors for services rendered in its formation. Accordingly, stock-based compensation has been recorded to date. h) Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. i) Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share The basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Because the Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities, the accompanying presentation is only of basic loss per share. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company 8
VERVE VENTURES INC. (A Development Stage Company) Notes To The Financial Statements (Unaudited) July 31, 2011 j) Fiscal Periods The Company's fiscal year end is October 31. k) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. ASC 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. The adoption of ASC 105 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, but did eliminate all references to pre-codification standards. In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.2010-09, "Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements" ("ASU2010-09"), which is included in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "ASC") Topic 855 (Subsequent Events). ASU 2010-09 clarifies that an SEC filer is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. ASU 2010-09 is effective upon the issuance of the final update and did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements. The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. 3. COMMON STOCK The authorized capital of the Company is 75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 per share. In April 2010, the Company issued 3,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for total cash proceeds of $3,500. In June and July of 2010, the Company issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.003 per share for total cash proceeds of $9,000. In July, August, September of 2010, the Company issued 2,550,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.005 per share for total cash proceeds of $12,750. During the period February 23, 2010 (inception) to October 31, 2010, the Company sold a total of 9,050,000 shares of common stock for total cash proceeds of $25,250. As of July 31, 2011, 9,050,000 shares are issued and outstanding. 4. INCOME TAXES As of July 31, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $29,728 that may be available to reduce future years' taxable income through 2029. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards. 9

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION GENERAL VERVE VENTURES INC. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 23, 2010. Our registration statement was filed as Effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2011. Please note that throughout this Quarterly Report, and unless otherwise noted, the words "we," "our," "us," the "Company," refers to VERVE VENTURES INC. CURRENT BUSINESS OPERATIONS As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have not started operations. The Company is in the development stage as defined under Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, Development Stage Enterprises ("SFAS No.7") (ASC 915-10). As of July 31, 2011 we have no revenues, have minimal assets and have incurred losses since inception. The Company intends to provide waste removal and disposal services to corporate and individual clients in the United Kingdom. Our services will be focused on a client base that is willing to pay a premium to assure both social and environmental concerns are addressed in all aspects of waste collection and disposal. We intend to operate a fleet of vehicles and a sorting/storage facilities both of which will begin small and scalable. The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception, February 23, 2010 through July 31, 2011 the Company has accumulated losses of $29,728. At present we are seeking sources of financing to carry out our business plan. RESULTS OF OPERATION Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities. THE NINE MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 2011 AND THE PERIOD FROM INCEPTION (FEBRUARY 23, 2010) TO JULY 31, 2011 Our net loss for the nine-months ended July 31, 2011 was approximately $27,756. During the nine-months ended July 31, 2011, we did not generate any revenue. Net loss during the period from inception (February 23, 2010) to July 31, 2011 was $29,728). During the nine-months ended July 31, 2011, we incurred general and administrative, consulting, and professional expenses of approximately $27,756. General and administrative expenses incurred during the nine-month period ended July 31, 2011 were generally related to corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, such as legal and accounting and developmental costs. During the period from inception (February 23, 2010) to July 31, 2011, we incurred general and administrative, consulting, and professional expenses of approximately $29,728. Our net loss during the nine-months ended July 31, 2011 was $27,756 or ($0.00) per share. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 9,050,000 for the nine-month period ended July 31, 2011. 12
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AS OF JULY 31, 2011 As of July 31, 2011, our current assets were $8,007 and our total liabilities were $12,485, which resulted in a working (deficit) of ($4,478), As of July 31, 2011, current assets were comprised of $3,572 in cash and $4,435 prepaid expense compared to $24,653 in cash at October 31, 2010. As of July 31, 2011, current liabilities were comprised of $10,375 advances from director and $2,110 in accounts payable compared to $1,375 in advances from director at October 31, 2010. Stockholders' equity (deficit) decreased from $23,278 as of October 31, 2010 to ($4,478) as of July 31, 2011. CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the nine-month period ended July 31, 2011, net cash flows used in operating activities was $30,081 consisting primarily of a net loss of $27,756. Net cash flows used in operating activities was $32,053 for the period from inception (February 23, 2010) to July 31, 2011. CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES We have financed our operations primarily from either advances from directors or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the nine-months ended July 31, 2011, we generated $9,000 net cash from financing activities. For the period from inception (February 23, 2010) to July 31, 2011, net cash provided by financing activities was $35,625 received from sale of common stock and advances from Director. PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business. Existing working capital, further advances, equity and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next three months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) acquisition of inventory; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations. MATERIAL COMMITMENTS As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have a material commitment. During the period from inception (February 23, 2010) to July 31, 2011, Leslie Clitheroe, our Chief Executive Officer and a director, advanced us $10,375. The advances are non-interest bearing and payable upon demand. 13
PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. GOING CONCERN The independent auditors' report accompanying our October 31, 2010 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse change in foreign currency and interest rates. EXCHANGE RATE Our reporting currency is United States Dollars ("USD"). INTEREST RATE Any future loans will relate mainly to trade payables and will be mainly short-term. However our debt may be likely to rise in connection with expansion and if interest rates were to rise at the same time, this could become a significant impact on our operating and financing activities. We have not entered into derivative contracts either to hedge existing risks of for speculative purposes. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 31, 2011. Based on that 14
evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Such officer also confirmed that there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine-months ended July 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
