REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”), as of October 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related combined statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity , and cash flows for the years then ended. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 combined 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. Our audits include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. Our audits also include assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, and the combined results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
Current Operations and Background
Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc. (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) were incorporated in Oregon on October 20, 1997 and in Nevada on June 28, 2004, respectively.
Accurate Locators, Inc. has been a metal detector manufacturer and distributor since 1992 for dealers, treasure hunters, gold prospectors and utilities companies world-wide. The Company provides industry standard metal detectors for treasure hunting, gold prospecting and locating under-ground cable, pipe and utilities. The Company’s products are used by many sectors of the US Government and many mining type operations including the likes of Westinghouse, Bureau of Land Management, Bechtel, Graybar, US Army, Navy and Marines.
Imaging Locators, Inc. has been operating as a metal detecting store offering a wide variety of instruments since 2004. The Company specializes in underground Surveyor Apparatus units, Ground Penetrating Radar (“GPR”), Pulse Induction Metal Detectors and Tunnel Locators.
The Company continues to explore opportunities of technological advancements within ground penetrating radar, pulse induction and other metals detection, which we believe can positively affect the Company`s performance over time.
Basis of Presentation
The combined financial statements include the accounts of Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”) as Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc. are entities under common control and management. All transactions and accounts between and among the Accurate Locators, Inc. and Imaging Locators, Inc. have been eliminated.
The combined financial statements of the Company for the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America. For combination purposes the Company used financial statements of the Imaging Locators, Inc., whose fiscal year ends in December 31, and elected the fiscal year end of Accurate Locators, Inc. as of October 31 and combined the financial statements for the same fiscal period for presentation purposes.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the combined financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
ASC 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
The Company performed a review of its material tax positions. During the period from November 1, 2010 through October 31, 2012, there were no increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken during period, there were no decreases in unrecognized tax benefits relating to settlements with taxing authorities, and there were no reductions to unrecognized tax benefits as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date.
The Company has elected to classify any interest or penalties recognized with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits as income taxes. During the period from November 1, 2010 through October 31, 2012, the Company did not recognize any amounts for interest or penalties with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, no amounts for interest or penalties with respect to any unrecognized tax benefits have been accrued.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash includes all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less as of October 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company had no cash equivalents as of October 31, 2012 and 2011.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |
Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
The Company had no assets or liabilities required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis at October 31, 2012 and 2011.
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the assets are as follows: machinery and equipment 7 years, office equipment 5 to 7 years, vehicles 5 years, and leasehold improvements use the shorter of the estimated useful life or the remaining term of the agreements, generally ranging from 3 to 15 years. Additions and improvements are capitalized while routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or disposition, the historically recorded asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to other income or expense.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a weighted average method. The reserves for obsolescence are maintained based on historical trends and specific identification, and therefore require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment about a number of factors, such as market conditions, the selling environment, historical results and current inventory trends. There were no reserves for obsolete inventory as of October 31, 2012 and 2011.
F-9 |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC 605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. This occurs when the detector devices are shipped to customers or dealers and distributors.
Net Income (Loss) per Share
In accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”, basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. The Company currently has no dilutive securities and as such, basic and diluted net income or loss per share are the same for the period presented.
Recently Developed Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the combined financial statements.
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the combined financial statements.

NOTE 12 - INCOME TAX
As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $66,113 and $38,107 respectively that may be offset against future taxable income. These NOLs will begin to expire in the year ending October 31, 2031. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs or a change in the nature of the business. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

Net operating loss carry forwards | $ | 38,107 | $ | 66,113 | ||||
Less valuation allowance | (38,107) | (66,113) | ||||||
$ | — | $ | — | |||||
Imaging Locators, Inc. elected to be an “S Corporation” since June 2004 and therefore it is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, Imaging Locators, Inc’s taxable income or loss is allocated to its members in accordance with their respective percentage ownership. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements for this entity.
No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements for the realization of loss carry forwards, as the Company believes there is high probability that the carry forwards will not be utilized in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
The Company is primarily subject to U.S. federal and state income tax. As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, (formerly FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109), the Company performed an analysis of its tax liabilities and determined that there were no positions taken that it considered uncertain. Therefore, there were no unrecognized tax benefits as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Reconciliation between the provision for income taxes and the expected tax benefit using the federal statutory rate of 34% and state statutory rate of 7.6% for 2012 and 2011 is as follows:
2012 and 2011 | ||||
Income tax benefit at federal statutory rate | 34 | % | ||
State income tax benefit, net of effect on federal taxes | 7.6 | % | ||
Increase in valuation allowance | (41.6) | % | ||

NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On May 31, 2013, Gold Hill Resources, Inc. (“Gold Hill”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with AL Merger Corporation, an Oregon corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Gold Hill (“AL MergerCo”), Accurate Locators (“Accurate”) and Wayne Good (“Good” and together with Accurate, the “Wood Parties”).
