Business

CORPORATE HISTORY AND BACKGROUND

Big Sky Productions, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 28, 2008. The Company has elected a fiscal year end of June 30.

BUSINESS

Our business is focused on (i) film production and distribution, and (ii) an online news magazine and terrestrial radio program broadcast known as the “Ellis Martin Report”.

Film Production and Distribution

With respect to our film production and distribution business we have been engaged in business planning activities, including researching the industry, developing our economic models and financial forecasts, performing due diligence regarding potential geographic locations most suitable for our services, identifying future sources of capital and developing a business plan as a producer of low-budget motion pictures.  Our Company intends to use North America as its primary area for producing these feature films.   We cannot provide any assurance or guarantee that we will be able to generate revenues in the future years through this activity.

Ellis Martin Report

Our radio program is broadcast during market hours in several key US cities and worldwide on the web featuring small-cap or microcap companies from a variety of industry sectors trading on a number of North American and foreign exchanges. We produce and provide news, general analyst opinions and other programming content. Our content is distributed to radio stations and digital platforms.  We sell radio airtime to customers who discuss their company.  The airtime is purchased from a third party radio airtime broker at a discount to our company. We derive substantially all of our revenue from the sale of 3 minute, 5 minute, and 10 minute and 60 second commercial airtime increments to companies. Our clients who target local/regional audiences generally find that an effective method is to purchase shorter duration interviews, which are principally correlated to our stock and information related programming and content. Our clients who target national audiences generally find that a cost effective method is to purchase longer airtime, which are principally correlated to our news, stock market related programming and content. A growing number of advertisers purchase both local/regional and national airtime. Our goal is to maximize the yield of our available commercial airtime to optimize revenue and profitability.
 
There are a variety of factors that influence our revenue on a periodic basis, including but not limited to:
 
·   economic conditions and the relative strength or weakness in the United States economy;
 
·  advertiser spending patterns and the timing of the broadcasting of our programming, principally the seasonal nature of financial programming;
 
·  changes in ratings/audience levels for our programming; increases or decreases in our portfolio of program offerings and the audiences of our programs, including changes in the demographic composition of our audience base;
 
·  advertiser demand on a local/regional or national basis for radio related advertising products; increases or decreases in the size of our advertiser sales force; and
 
·  competitive and alternative programs and advertising mediums.

Our commercial airtime is perishable, and accordingly, our revenue is significantly impacted by the commercial airtime available at the time we enter into an arrangement with a company. Our ability to specifically isolate the relative historical aggregate impact of price and volume is not practical as commercial airtime is sold and managed on an order-by-order basis. We closely monitor advertiser commitments for the current calendar year, with particular emphasis placed on the annual upfront process. We take the following factors, among others, into account when pricing commercial airtime: (1) the dollar value, length and breadth of the order; (2) the desired reach and audience demographic; (3) the quantity of commercial airtime available for the desired demographic requested by the advertiser for sale at the time their order is negotiated; and (4) the proximity of the date of the order placement to the desired broadcast date of the commercial airtime.
 
The principal components of our operating expenses are programming, production and distribution costs (including affiliate compensation and broadcast rights fees), selling expenses, including commissions, promotional expenses and bad debt expenses, depreciation and amortization, and corporate general and administrative expenses.

We consider our operating cost structure to be largely fixed in nature, and as a result, we need several months lead time to make significant modifications to our cost structure to react to what we view are more than temporary increases or decreases in advertiser demand. This becomes important in predicting our performance in periods when advertiser revenue is increasing or decreasing. In periods where advertiser revenue is increasing, the fixed nature of a substantial portion of our costs means that operating income will grow faster than the related growth in revenue. Conversely, in a period of declining revenue, operating income will decrease by a greater percentage than the decline in revenue because of the lead-time needed to reduce our operating cost structure. If we perceive a decline in revenue to be temporary, we may choose not to reduce our fixed costs, or may even increase our fixed costs, so as to not limit our future growth potential when the advertising marketplace rebounds. We carefully consider matters such as credit and commercial inventory risks, among others, in assessing arrangements with our programming and distribution partners. In those circumstances where we function as the principal in the transaction, the revenue and associated operating costs are presented on a gross basis in the accompanying Statement of Operations. In those circumstances where we function as an agent or sales representative, our effective commission is presented within revenue with no corresponding operating expenses. Although no individual relationship is significant, the relative mix of such arrangements is significant when evaluating operating margin and/or increases and decreases in operating expenses.
 
Competitive Factors
 
The motion picture industry is intensely competitive. Competition comes from companies within the same business and companies in other entertainment media that create alternative forms of entertainment.  The industry is currently evolving in such a way that certain multinational multimedia firms will be able to dominate this space because of their control over key film, magazine, and television content, as well as key network and cable outlets.  These organizations have numerous competitive advantages, such as the ability to acquire financing for their projects and to make favorable arrangements for the distribution of completed films.  All of our competitors will likely be organizations of substantially larger size and capacity, with far greater financial and personnel resources and longer operating histories, and may be better able to acquire properties, personnel and financing, and enter into more favorable distribution agreements. Our success will depend on public taste, which is both unpredictable and susceptible to rapid change.
 
As an independent film production company, we most likely will not have the backing of a major studio for production and distribution support. Consequently, we may not be able to complete a motion picture.
 
In order to be competitive, we intend to create independent motion pictures that may appeal to a wide range of public taste both in the United States and abroad.  Moreover, by producing our films in Canada we believe that we will be able to significantly reduce production costs, and thereby offer our films to distributors at competitive pricing.   Investors must be aware that at this time we have not produced any film and may not ever be successful in doing so in the future.

Regulations
 
Big Sky is subject to the following governmental regulation and required to comply in the following areas:
 
 
5

 
 
Distribution Arrangements
 
We intend to release our films in the United States through existing distribution companies, primarily independent distributors. We will retain the right for ourselves to market the films on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis throughout the rest of the world and to market television and other uses separately.  To the extent that we may engage in foreign distribution of our films, we will be subject to all of the governmental regulations of doing business abroad including, but not limited to, government censorship, exchange controls, and copying, and licensing or qualification.  At this point it is not possible to predict, with certainty, the nature of the distribution arrangements and extent of exact governmental regulations that may impact our business.
 
Intellectual Property Rights
 
Rights to motion pictures are granted legal protection under the copyright laws of the United States and most foreign countries, including Canada.  These laws provide substantial civil and criminal penalties for unauthorized duplication and exhibition of motion pictures. Motion pictures, musical works, sound recordings, artwork, and still photography are separately subject to copyright under most copyright laws. The results of such investigations may warrant legal action, by the owner of the rights, and, depending on the scope of the piracy, investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and/or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police with the possibility of criminal prosecution.  Under the copyright laws of Canada and the United States, copyright in a motion picture is automatically secured when the work is created and "fixed" in a copy. We intend to register our films for copyright with both the Canadian Copyright Office and the United States Copyright Office.  Both offices will register claims to copyright and issue certificates of registration but neither will "grant" or "issue" copyrights.  Only the expression (camera work, dialogue, sounds, etc.) fixed in a motion picture can be protected under copyright. Registration with the appropriate office establishes a public record of the copyright claim.
 
Censorship
 
An industry trade association, the Motion Picture Association of America, assigns ratings for age group suitability for domestic theatrical distribution of motion pictures under the auspices of its Code and Rating Administration. The film distributor generally submits its film to the Code and Rating Administration for a rating. We plan to follow the practice of submitting our motion pictures for ratings.
 
Labor Laws
 
Many of the screenplay writers, performers, directors and technical personnel in the entertainment industry who we intend to be involved in our productions are members of guilds or unions that bargain collectively on an industry-wide basis and may have state and governmental regulations that we must comply with.
 
Employees
 
Currently, the Company believes the services provided by its officers and directors is sufficient at this time.

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

Results of Operations
 
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future.

Years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

Gross Revenue
 
2011:  $160,955
2010:  $38,431
 
The increase in gross revenues for 2011 was related to increased revenue from the Ellis Martin Report.

Net Revenue

2011:  $81,114
2010:  $7,274

The increased net revenue for 2011 was due to an increased gross revenue, offset by increased costs f revenue associated with delivering higher sales.

Expenses
 
2011:  $124,199
2010:  $51,828

The increase in expenses for 2011 was related to increased professional fee costs associated with being a public company.

Net Loss
 
2011:  ($43,651)
2010:  ($44,551)
  
Liquidity and Financial Condition
 
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had current assets of $63,401 and current liabilities of $137,739; our cash balance was $40,263.

We anticipate that additional capital will be required to implement our business plan for the next 12 months.  In order to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may need to sell additional shares of common stock or borrow funds from private lenders.

Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing.  Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities as a means of raising additional capital, stockholders may experience dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of common stock.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), are our controls and other procedures that are 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 SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, requires us to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2011, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal year end.  This evaluation was implemented under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer.

Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive and Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our officers have assessed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based upon its assessment, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the final quarter of the year ended June 30, 2011, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

AUDIT OPINION
 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors
BigSky Productions, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of BigSky Productions, Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended and the period February 28, 2008 (inception) through June 30, 2010.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BigSky Productions, Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended and the period February 28, 2008 (inception) through June 30, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has limited operations and has no established source of revenue.  This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the June 30, 2009 financial statements have been restated to correct a misstatement.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of Business

Big Sky Productions, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 28, 2008. Big Sky Productions, Inc. is developing a business plan as a producer of radio advertisements for small businesses.   To date, our business activities have been limited to organizational matters, reselling of advertising time, developing our website and the preparation and filing of the registration statement. The Company has elected a fiscal year end of June 30.

The Company currently has limited operations and, in accordance with ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities,” is considered a Development Stage Enterprise.  The Company has been in the development stage since its formation and has realized minimal revenues from its operations.

 
Note 2 - Basis of Presentation:
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the periods presented.  All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. 

Note 3 – Significant Accounting Policies

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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Areas requiring the use of estimates include impairment of long lived assets, valuation allowance applied to deferred tax assets and useful lives used in the depreciation of equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
All highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2011 or 2010.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Income taxes

 The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "Income Taxes" which codified SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" and FIN 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No.  109.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, accounts receivable, related party payable and accounts payable. The fair value of accounts receivable, related party payable and accounts payable approximate the financial statement carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s cash was measured using level I inputs.
 
Earnings (Loss) Per Share Information
 
FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings (loss) per share.  Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share.  Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Share Based Expenses

ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" codified SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payments award to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. , may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees" which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
 
Going concern

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.  If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources.  Management's plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses, and (2) as a last resort, seeking out and completing a merger with an existing operating company. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Revenue Recognition

The Company's financial statements are prepared under the accrual method of accounting. Revenues are recognized when evidence of an agreement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and goods have been delivered or services performed.

The Company derives revenues from the sale of advertising space on its radio program “The Ellis Martin Report.” “The Ellis Martin Report” is a paid news magazine airing on select AM radio stations in the United States.  Clients and/or guests compensate the Company for time on this program to expose their business or stories to the listening audience.

Advertising contracts are structured to run for a time period between 30 and 120 days. Accordingly, revenues are recognized on a pro-rata basis resulting in recognized revenue and deferred revenue of $160,955 and $95,443 respectively for and as of the year ended June 30, 2011.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Any monetary assets and liabilities that are in a currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated at the rate prevailing at year end. Revenue and expenses in a foreign currency are translated at rates that approximate those in effect at the time of translation. Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency transactions into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.

Comparative Figures

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
ASC 855, Subsequent Events ("ASC 855") (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, Subsequent Events) includes guidance that was issued by the FASB in May 2009, and is consistent with current auditing standards in defining a subsequent event. Additionally, the guidance provides for disclosure regarding the existence and timing of a company's evaluation of its subsequent events. ASC 855 defines two types of subsequent events, "recognized" and "non-recognized". Recognized subsequent events provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet and are required to be reflected in the financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date and, therefore; are not required to be reflected in the financial statements. However, certain non-recognized subsequent events may require disclosure to prevent the financial statements from being misleading. This guidance was effective prospectively for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company implemented the guidance included in ASC 855 as of April 1, 2009. The effect of implementing this guidance was not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In February 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance on subsequent events to alleviate potential conflicts between FASB guidance and SEC requirements. Under this amended guidance, SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. This guidance was effective immediately and we adopted these new requirements for the period ended June 30, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against operations. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.

Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are:

 
Estimated Useful Lives
Furniture and Fixtures
5 - 10 years
Computer Equipment
2 - 5 years
Vehicles
5 - 10 years

For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. For audit purposes, depreciation is computed under the straight-line method.   At June 30, 2011, the Company had the following property and equipment (none at June 30, 2010):

   
Cost
   
Accumulated
Depreciation
   
Net Book

The Company recognizes the tax effects of transactions in the year in which such transactions enter into the determination of net income, regardless of when reported for tax purposes.

Operating loss carry forwards generated during the period from February 28, 2008 (date of inception) through June 30, 2011 of $161,950 will begin to expire in 2028, and may be limited by the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and other provisions as to their utilization.

The Company follows the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in FASC 740-10-65-1.  The Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.  The Company has no tax positions at June 30, 2011 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  No such interest or penalties were recognized during the periods presented.  The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at June 30, 2011 or 2010.
