NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 
1.                     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Pacific Sands, 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 Pacific Sands, Inc’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011.  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 fiscal 2011 as reported elsewhere in this Form 10-Q have been omitted.


2.                     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Nature of Business - Pacific Sands, Inc. with the right to do business as Natural Water Technologies (the "Company" or “Pacific Sands”) was incorporated in Nevada on July 7, 1994.  Pacific Sands develops, manufactures, markets and sells a broad portfolio of environmentally friendly and highly effective liquid and powder cleaning and water-management products. The Company’s products have applications ranging from water maintenance (spas, swimming pools, fountains, ponds) to fabric and surface cleaning (household and institutional) and pet care. The Company markets and sells its product lines directly, and through pool, spa, hardware, specialty and other retail outlets in the US, Canada and Europe. The products are also sold via Pacific Sands distributors, manufacturers’ representatives and internationally established pool and spa industry distribution networks. The Company’s products are also sold through numerous popular pool and spa websites.  The Company’s Natural Choices branded products are sold in numerous retail outlets around the country as well as dozens of the top environmentally-oriented websites.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.

Depreciation and Amortization - For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment has been computed over estimated useful lives of two to seven years primarily using the straight-line method.  Depreciation and amortization charges totaled $5,087 and $4,852 during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when the related products are shipped unless the customer is under a bill and hold arrangement. Under a bill and hold arrangement revenue is recognized when the product is manufactured, invoiced and set aside in a specifically designated finished goods area. Upon invoicing under this arrangement ownership has passed to the buyer with no residual warranty obligation or right of return. All customers under a bill and hold arrangement have committed to purchases and have specifically requested they be on a bill and hold arrangement. In all cases goods are transferred to a designated finished goods fulfillment location under a fulfillment arrangement and are complete and ready for shipment. These bill and hold goods are either privately labeled or set aside exclusively for the customers use.

Advertising and Promotional Costs - Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred.

PACIFIC SANDS, INC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Income Taxes - The Company uses the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes.  Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes.  The temporary differences relate primarily to net operating loss carryforwards and deferred compensation charges.  A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized through future operations.

The income tax accounting process for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes 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. A company must determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation procedures, based on the technical merits of the position.  Once it is determined that a position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the position is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. Management's review of the Company’s possible tax positions at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011 did not result in any positions requiring disclosure.  Should the Company need to record interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, or other tax authority assessments, it would classify such expenses as part of the income tax provision.
 
The Company's income tax returns for the years ending June 30, 2008, 2009 and 2010 are subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after they were filed.

Accounts Receivable - The Company makes judgments as to the collectability of trade and other accounts receivable based on historic trends and future expectations. Management estimates an allowance for doubtful receivables, which reflects its current assessment of the collectability of the receivables. Management believes that the current specific and general receivable reserve of $18,000 is adequate as of September 30, 2011.
 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share - Basic net earnings (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Dilutive convertible shares have been included in the computation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding for dilutive net earnings per common share.  Dilutive shares and stock options have not been included in the computation of net loss per common share, as the effect would be antidilutive.
 
Use of Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
  
Statement of Cash Flows - For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

3.                     GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been presented assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company's assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business.  Through September 30, 2011, the Company has incurred cumulative losses of $5,451,946.  The Company's successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining financing adequate to fulfill its development, marketing and sales activities and achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company's cost structure.  Management's plan of operations anticipates that the cash requirements of the Company for the next twelve months will be met by obtaining capital through the sale of common stock, debt financings and from current operations.  However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to fully implement its plan in order to generate the funds needed on a going concern basis.

General
 
Pacific Sands, Inc. (the "Company" or "Pacific Sands") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 7, 1994. The Company's fiscal year ends June 30. The Company is a C-Corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Company does not have subsidiaries or affiliated entities. The Company also does business as Natural Water Technologies, ecoONE Marketing Group and Natural Choices Home Safe Products (see discussion below).
 
The Company develops, manufactures, markets and sells a range of non-toxic, environmentally friendly cleaning and water-treatment products based on proprietary blended botanical and nontoxic chemical technologies. The Company's products have applications ranging from water installation maintenance (spas, swimming pools, fountains, decorative ponds) to cleaning (non-toxic household and industrial).
 
The Company has a mature, actively marketed product line known as the ecoONE® Spa Treatment system as well as ecoONE® Pool conditioner and the Pacific Sands All-Purpose Hose Filter.

In mid February of 2008, the Company acquired Natural Choices Home Safe Products, LLC (“Natural Choices”), a developer and manufacturer of environmentally friendly cleaning and laundry products. The acquisition added dozens of new products to the Pacific Sands portfolio of earth, health, pet and kid-friendly offerings, including Oxy-Boost™ an oxygen-bleach based, chlorine-free bleach alternative. The Company now has a large selection of oxygen- bleach based formulations available both for retail distribution under its ecoone®, e-2 elemental earth® and Natural Choices™ brands as well as for contract manufacturing and re-label.
 
The Company markets and sells its product lines directly, through pool, spa, hardware, specialty and other retail outlets in the US, Canada and Europe. The products are also sold via Pacific Sands distributors, manufacturers’ representatives and internationally established pool and spa industry distribution networks. The Company’s products are also sold through numerous popular pool and spa websites.  The Company’s Natural Choices branded products are sold in numerous retail outlets around the country as well as dozens of the top environmentally-oriented websites.

The Company's goal is to achieve sustained profitability through revenues achieved by marketing and sales of its nontoxic, earth, health and kid-friendly, ecoONE® Pool, Spa, Household Cleaning and other product lines.

Management intends to continue the aggressive marketing and sale of its products through a widening base of retail outlets, distribution centers and OEM arrangements in order to achieve its goals.

The Company's ability to achieve its objectives is dependent on its ability to sustain and enhance its revenue stream and to continue to raise funds through loans, credit and the private placement of restricted securities until such time as the Company achieves sustained fiscal profitability.

To date, the Company has funded operations through a combination of revenues from the sale of its products, established credit with vendors, a bank line of credit and the sale of rule 144 stocks through private placement. The Company's failure to continue to raise adequate financing to fund operations may jeopardize its existence. (See “Liquidity and Capital Resources”)

Management knows of no additional trends or uncertainties beyond those discussed that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company's short or long-term liquidity.

Settlement of Natural Choices Debt Obligation

On March 21, 2011, the Company and the former owners of Natural Choices (“Former Owners”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement Payment Plan (“Payment Plan”).  The Payment Plan effectively resolves all outstanding issues and obligations from an Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 8, 2008 and a First Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement dated March 31, 2009 (together “Asset Purchase Agreement”). As of the effective date of the Payment Plan, $640,000 remained owed by the Company to the Former Owners under the Asset Purchase Agreement.  Pursuant to the terms of the Payment Plan, the Former Owners received common stock and cash totaling $407,000 as full and final payment.  On March 21, 2011, the Company issued to the Former Owners 3,323,500 shares of common stock having a fair market value of $332,350.  Additionally, on April 9, 2011 the Company paid the Former Owners cash in the amount $74,650.  Settlement of the obligations due to the Former Owners resulted in debt forgiveness for the Company in the amount of $233,000 which has been recorded as other income during the year ended June 30, 2011.
 
In October 2011, the Company sold the direct to retail business including rights and trademarks related to ECOGEEKS.com and entered into a three year distributor agreement.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results for the three months ending September 30, 2011 compared to the three months ending September 30, 2010.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, net sales were $352,830, an increase of 12% over net sales of $314,779 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase in sales was due to continued increase in private labels orders.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, cost of sales was $230,976 compared to $133,362 for the same period in the previous fiscal year.  The Company’s gross margin decreased from 58% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to 35% for the current fiscal quarter. This decrease is due to the fact that the major share of the Company’s sales during the period were to private label customers which are sold at a much lower margin. Additionally, raw material costs were higher for a number of specialty components.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, selling and general administrative expenses were $204,486 and $170,004, respectively. The increase in operating expenses is explained by an investment in IT infrastructure. To invest in future growth the Company hired a VP for Sales and Marketing and increased advertising spending. The continued growth in private label sales for the period required the hiring of additional temporary staff to meet customer demand.
 
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $6,208 compared to $23,163 for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The decrease is due to a significant  reduction of debt during fiscal 2011, including conversions of promissory and shareholder notes to equity and debt settlement with the former owners of Natural Choices.  Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company amortized $1,514 of discounts of notes payable compared to $5,220 during the three months ended September 30, 2010.

The Company recorded a net loss of $88,840 or $0.0015 loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to a net loss of $11,750 or $0.0003 loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management believes that the Company is positioned for sales growth but will require additional funding to continue operations. The Company's ability to achieve its objectives is dependent upon its ability to sustain and enhance its current revenue stream and to continue to raise funds through loans, vendor credit and the private placement of restricted securities until such time as the Company sustains fiscal profitability. To date, the Company has funded operations and expansion through a combination of revenues from the sale of its products, established credit with vendors, deferred salaries (subsequently converted to notes payable to officers), debt financings and the sale of rule 144 stock through private placement. The Company's failure to continue to raise adequate financing to fund planned expansion may jeopardize its plans for growth.
 
At September 30, 2011, the Company had current assets of $443,358 and total assets of $478,389, compared to June 30, 2011 when current assets were $528,000 and total assets were $568,118. Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2011 was $992 compared to $9,753 at June 30, 2011.  Aggressive collections resulted in decrease in accounts receivable to $256,882 at September 30, 2011 from $334,541 at June 30, 2011.
    
Current liabilities at September 30, 2011 were $410,652 as compared to $413,055 at June 30, 2011. Current liabilities include accounts payable, current portion of notes payable and capital lease obligations and accrued expenses. At September 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding line of credit balances totaling approximately $54,000.  At September 30, 2011, the current portion on convertible promissory notes was $22,000.

Non-current liabilities include approximately $20,000 of convertible debt, and a $182,000 note payable due a former executive officer of the Company.

Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $1,366 compared to $4,601 used in operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, net cash used in financing activities was $7,395, the result of payments against capital lease and line of credit obligations. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, net cash provided by financing activities was  $12,353 which included proceeds of $47,498 from debt issued and $35,145 of debt repayments.
    
The Company had working capital of approximately $33,000 and $115,000 at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively.
  
On September 30, 2011 the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,451,946 and total stockholders’ deficit of $133,821.
.
The Company's ability to achieve its objectives is dependent on its ability to sustain and enhance its revenue stream and to continue to raise funds through loans, credit and the private placement of restricted securities until such time as the Company achieves profitability. To date, management has been successful in raising cash on an as-needed basis for the continued operations of the Company. There is no guarantee that management will be able to continue to raise needed cash in this fashion.

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures at this time. The Company has no “off balance sheet” source of liquidity arrangements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
  
An investment in the common stock of the Company involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information in this report, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company and its business. This Report contains forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain as they are based on current expectations and assumptions concerning future events or future performance of the Company. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. Forward-looking statements usually contain the words "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "expect," or similar expressions, and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties. In evaluating such statements, prospective investors should review carefully various risks and uncertainties identified in this report, including the matters set below and in the Company's other SEC filings. These risks and uncertainties could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or publicly announce revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.
 
THE COMPANY HAS EXPERIENCED LOSSES FROM OPERATIONS SINCE COMMENCING OPERATIONS:
With the exception of the 3rd quarter of fiscal 2010, 2011 and the 4th quarters of fiscal 2006, 2007 and 2011, the Company since commencing operations, has been profitable once in fiscal 2011. The Company may not, in the future, generate sufficient revenues to achieve sustainable profitability.
 
POSSIBLE DIFFICULTY FINANCING PLANNED GROWTH:
The Company's present plans require an amount of expenditure and working capital. In the future the Company will require financing in addition to the cash generated from operations to fund planned growth. If additional resources are unavailable the Company may be unable to grow according to its present plan.
 
MANAGEMENT'S ASSUMPTIONS REGARDING THE FUTURE MARKET MAY BE FAULTY:
Management assumes there will be a continuing and increased desirability in the retail market for nontoxic, environment and health friendly products for cleaning and water treatment use. Should management's assumptions as to this increased desirability be faulty, the Company may have difficulty achieving its planned growth.
 
THE LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE COMPANY:
The Company is run by a small number of key personnel. Should the Company experience a loss of these key people due to their inability or unwillingness to continue in their present positions, the Company's business and financial results could be adversely affected. The Company’s president resigned during the period but will not affect operations adversely.
  
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as those controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports it files or submits 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 Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011, management is aware that there is a significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting. The significant deficiency relates to a lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees involvement with general administrative and financial matters. However, management believes that compensating controls are in place to mitigate the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties. Compensating controls include outsourcing certain financial functions to an independent contractor. Management concluded that internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of June 30, 2011.

There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting
