Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2009
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION
Tres Estrellas Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company") is a Nevada corporation
incorporated on March 5, 2007. The Company is a development stage company.
To date, the Company's activities have been limited to its formation and
the raising of equity capital. The Company's fiscal year end is December
31.
GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY CONSIDERATIONS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other
things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. As at September 30, 2009, the Company had a loss
from operations of $66,998 and has earned no revenues since inception. The
Company intends to fund operations through equity financing arrangements,
which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital
and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2009.
The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage is
dependent upon, among other things, obtaining additional financing to
continue operations, development of its business plan and generation of
revenue.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) applicable to
development stage companies.
b) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 amount of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
c) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market funds, and
certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months
from inception, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and
which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk
of loss in value.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
d) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") Number 119, "Disclosure About Derivative Financial Instruments and
Fair Value of Financial Instruments." The carrying amount of accrued
liabilities approximates its fair value because of the short maturity of
this item. Certain fair value estimates may be subject to and involve,
uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and, therefore, cannot
be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly
affect these estimates. The Company does not hold or issue financial
instruments for trading purposes, nor does it utilize derivative
instruments in the management of its foreign exchange, commodity price or
interest rate market risks.
e) SEGMENTED REPORTING
SFAS Number 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information", changed the way public companies report information about
segments of their business in their quarterly reports issued to
shareholders. It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products
and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds
assets and reports revenues and its major customers.
f) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of
income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported
for income tax purposes in accordance with SFAS Number 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", which requires the use of the asset/liability method of
accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for tax loss and credit
carryforwards. 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. The
Company provides for deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects
attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards when realization is
more likely than not.
g) EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
Statement Number 128, "Earnings per Share," ("EPS") which requires
presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement
for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a
reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS
computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS
computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic earnings
(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
h) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 123(R), "SHARE-BASED PAYMENT", which establishes
accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under
the provisions of SFAS 123(R), stock-based compensation cost is measured at
the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is
recognized as an expense over the employees' requisite service period
(generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The Company accounts
for share-based payments to non-employees, in accordance with SFAS 123 (as
originally issued) and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18,
"ACCOUNTING FOR EQUITY INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE ISSUED TO OTHER THAN EMPLOYEES
FOR ACQUIRING, OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH SELLING, GOODS OR SERVICES". For the
period ended September 30, 2009 the Company did not have any stock-based
compensation.
i) REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services in
accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 104 ("SAB 104"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." Revenue will consist of services income and will be recognized
only when all of the following criteria have been met:
(i) Persuasive evidence for an agreement exists;
(ii) Service has occurred;
(iii) The fee is fixed or determinable; and
(iv) Revenue is reasonably assured.
3. CAPITAL STOCK
a) AUTHORIZED STOCK
The Company has authorized 75,000,000 common shares with $0.001 par value.
Each common share entitles the holder to one vote, in person or proxy, on
any matter on which action of the stockholder of the corporation is sought.
b) SHARE ISSUANCES
Since inception (March 5, 2007), to September 30, 2009, the Company has
issued the following shares:
A total of 5,500,000 common stock shares to the sole officer and director
at $0.002 per share for a total of $11,000.
A total of 6,000,000 common stock shares to 40 unaffiliated investors at
$.004 per share for a total of $24,000 pursuant to an SB-2 Registration
Statement.

4. INCOME TAXES
The company has incurred operating losses of $66,998, which, if unutilized,
will begin to expire in 2027. Future tax benefits, which may arise as a
result of these losses, have not been recognized in these financial
statements, and have been off set by a valuation allowance.
Details of future income tax assets are as follows:
September 30,
2009
--------
Future income tax assets:
Net operating loss (from inception (March 5, 2007
to September 30, 2009) $ 66,998
Statutory tax rate (combined federal and state) 34%
--------
Non-capital tax loss 22,779
Valuation allowance (22,779)
--------
$ --
========
The potential future tax benefits of these losses have not been recognized
in these financial statements due to uncertainty of their realization. When
the future utilization of some portion of the carryforwards is determined
not to be "more likely than not," a valuation allowance is provided to
reduce the recorded tax benefits from such assets.
5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent accounting pronouncements that are listed below did and/or are not
currently expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.
FASB STATEMENTS:
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, AN AMENDMENT OF ARB 51 ("SFAS 160").
SFAS 160 changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests.
Minority interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and
will be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent's
equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a
change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In
addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be
included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and
upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest
retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized
in earnings. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within
those fiscal years, except for the presentation and disclosure
requirements, which will apply retrospectively. There will be no impact
upon adoption to our current consolidated results of operations and
financial condition.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - CONTINUED
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 161, DISCLOSURES
ABOUT DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, AN AMENDMENT OF FASB
STATEMENT NO. 133 ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 expands the disclosure
requirements in Statement 133 about an entity's derivative instruments and
hedging activities. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. We
are currently evaluating the impact of adopting FAS 161.
In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS
No. 162 sets forth the level of authority to a given accounting
pronouncement or document by category. Where there might be conflicting
guidance between two categories, the more authoritative category will
prevail. SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days after the SEC approves
the PCAOB's amendments to AU Section 411 of the AICPA Professional
Standards. SFAS No. 162 has no effect on the Company's financial position,
statements of operations, or cash flows at this time.
In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-and
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60". SFAS No. 163 clarifies how
Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including
the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claims liabilities.
This statement also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee
insurance contracts. SFAS No. 163 is effective for fiscal years beginning
on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. SFAS
No. 163 has no effect on the Company's financial position, statements of
operations, or cash flows at this time.
6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Mr. Chavez, a director of the Company, has advanced funds to the company to
pay for any costs incurred by it. These funds are interest free and there
are no specific terms of repayment or any contract regarding the funds
loaned. The balance due Mr. Chavez was $27,465 on September 30, 2009.
The officer and director of the Company may, in the future, become involved
in other business opportunities as they become available, thus he may face
a conflict in selecting between the Company and his other business
opportunities. The company has not formulated a policy for the resolution
of such conflicts.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On October 30, 2009, the Company executed an agreement with IN Media
Corporation, Inc. ("IN-Media"), and the Company (the "Agreement"), whereby
pursuant to the terms and conditions of that Agreement, IN Media
shareholders acquired thirty three million, five hundred thousand
(33,500,000) shares of the Company's common stock, whereby IN Media was
merged into the Company. This issuance of stock did not involve any public
offering, general advertising or solicitation. At the time of the issuance,
IN Media had fair access to and was in possession of all available material
information about the Company. The shares bear a restrictive transfer
legend in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT - CONTINUED
Upon effectiveness of the Agreement, the Company has now changed its
business plan to the business of IN Media. IN Media is a content provider
and integrator of Internet Protocol Television ("IPTV") services for cable,
satellite, internet, telephony and mobile services. The IN Media business
model is comprised of both content fees and shared revenue from large
infrastructure providers offering total solutions: television, telephony
and internet services, also referred to as "Triple Play" services. The
addition of content or video on demand (VoD) adds to the solution or "Quad
Play" services. IN Media is an integral part of both IPTV and VoD services
with their ownership of content and streamlined IPTV implementations.
However, IN Media mitigates their exposure by partnering with large
Platform Providers whom are responsible for the customer billing and
service.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Management's Discussion and Analysis contains various "forward looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, regarding future events or the future financial performance of
the Company that involve risks and uncertainties. Certain statements included in
this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements related to anticipated
cash flow sources and uses, and words including but not limited to
"anticipates", "believes", "plans", "expects", "future" and similar statements
or expressions, identify forward looking statements. Any forward-looking
statements herein are subject to certain risks and uncertainties in the
Company's business and any changes in current accounting rules, all of which may
be beyond the control of the Company. The Company adopted at management's
discretion, the most conservative recognition of revenue based on the most
astringent guidelines of the SEC. Management will elect additional changes to
revenue recognition to comply with the most conservative SEC recognition on a
forward going accrual basis as the model is replicated with other similar
markets (i.e. SBDC). The Company's actual results could differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain
factors, including those set forth therein.
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which
may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Factors and risks that could affect our results and achievements and cause them
to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements
include those identified in the section titled "Risk Factors" in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, as well as
other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may
exist in the future.
In addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of
operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of
the date the statement was made. We do not undertake and specifically decline
any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
BUSINESS
Our business was formed to offer a proposed pipe restoration services to
commercial and residential rental building owners in Baja California, Mexico in
2008.
During the past year we have witnessed a dramatic reduction in investor and
lender willingness to provide funding throughout the world. We are also
experiencing increased levels of resistance to our inquiries for new sources of
cash flows. We need to generate additional funding beyond that provided in the
past by our director.
Management determined it was in the best interests of the company and the
shareholders to consider other potential business opportunities that could
include possibly changing our business plan, acquiring an existing business with
sufficient cash flows, or merging with another company.
On October 30, 2009, we executed an agreement with IN Media Corporation, Inc.
("IN-Media"), and our Company (the "Agreement"), whereby pursuant to the terms
and conditions of that Agreement, IN Media shareholders acquired thirty three
million, five hundred thousand (33,500,000) shares of our common stock, whereby
IN Media was merged into the Company. The Company reported this event on Form
8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Agreement on November 2, 2009. The
disclosure included the financial statements of IN-Media, pro-forma financials,
12
and disclosures regarding IN-Media. The closing of the transactions in the
agreement are contingent upon satisfaction of closing conditions listed in the
Agreement, a form of which is attached Exhibit 2.1 to that Form 8-K.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We have generated no revenues since inception and have incurred $66,998 in
expenses from inception through September 30, 2009. We incurred $4,740 and 5,140
in expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. These costs consisted of general and administrative expenses. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 we incurred $14,201 and
$27,816 in expenses, these were all general and administrative expenses.
Management determined it was in the best interests of the company and the
shareholders to consider other potential business opportunities that could
include possibly changing our business plan, acquiring an existing business with
sufficient cash flows, or merging with another company.
The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the
three months ended September 30, 2009.
Balance Sheet Data: 9/30/09
------------------- -------
Cash $ 697
Total assets $ 2,667
Total liabilities $ 34,665
Shareholders' equity $(31,998)
There was no cash provided from operating activities for the quarter ended
September 30, 2009. From inception the director had loaned the company $27,465.
Cash provided by financing since inception was $35,000, consisting of $11,000
from the sale of shares to our officer and director and $24,000 resulting from
the sale of our common stock to 40 unaffiliated investors.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We cannot continually incur operating losses in the future and may decide that
we can no longer continue with our business operations as detailed in our
original business plan because of a lack of financial results and a lack of
available financial resources. Our cash balance at September 30, 2009 was $697.
If we are unable to secure adequate capital to continue in business, our
shareholders will lose some or all of their investment and our business will
likely fail. Our director has advanced us funds of $27,465 and has agreed to
advance funds in a limited operations scenario. In the event our director does
not provide such funding, our business will likely fail. We are a development
stage company and have generated no revenue to date.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
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 is material to investors.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be
required to adopt in the future are summarized below.
13
On September 30, 2009, the Company adopted updates issued by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to the authoritative hierarchy of GAAP. These
changes establish the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (ASC) as the
source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be
applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements
in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also
sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The FASB will no longer issue
new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging
Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead the FASB will issue Accounting Standards
Updates. Accounting Standards Updates will not be authoritative in their own
right as they will only serve to update the Codification. These changes and the
Codification itself do not change GAAP. Other than the manner in which new
accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact
on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 105, "GENERALLY
ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES" ("ASC 105"), which establishes the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification as the source of GAAP to be applied to
nongovernmental agencies. ASC 105 explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive
releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws as authoritative
GAAP for SEC registrants. ASC 105 became effective for interim or annual periods
ending after September 15, 2009. ASC 105 does not have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements presented hereby.
In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 855, "SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS" ("ASC 855"). The pronouncement modifies the definition of what qualifies
as a subsequent event--those events or transactions that occur following the
balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued, or are
available to be issued--and requires companies to disclose the date through
which it has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for determining that
date. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 855 in the second quarter of
2009, in accordance with the effective date.
WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging
activities.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management team, including our principal executive officer and our principal
financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule
13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(Exchange Act), as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report,
September 30, 2009. The term disclosure controls and procedures means 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
14
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 Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer,
or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal
executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2009.
Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, are
responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f).
Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer are required
to base their assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting on a suitable, recognized control framework, such as the
framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO). The
COSO framework, published in INTERNAL CONTROL-INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK, is known as
the COSO Report. Our principal executive officer and our principal financial
officer, have chosen the COSO framework on which to base their assessment. Based
on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial
officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was
effective as of September 30, 2009.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems
determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving
their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face
additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and
find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals
control every aspect of the Company's operation and are in a position to
override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting
companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a
rigorous set of software controls.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the
objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system
is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain
events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems,
there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During the Quarter ended September 30, 2009, there was no change in our internal
control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f)
under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously discussed in
Item 1A of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008,
including but not limited, to the following:
OUR COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK REGULATION
Our shares are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly
referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain
requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates
the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has
a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule
3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be penny stock unless
that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange
meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on
the NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded
from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the
registrant's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the
Commission. Since our shares are deemed to be "penny stock", trading in the
shares will be subject to additional sales practice requirements on
broker/dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers
and accredited investors.
FINRA SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS MAY ALSO LIMIT A STOCKHOLDER'S ABILITY TO BUY
AND SELL OUR STOCK.
In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending
an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for
believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to
recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional
customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information
about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and
other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that
there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be
suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult
for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which
may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on
the market for our shares.
WE MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT CAPITAL TO PURSUE OUR BUSINESS AND
THEREFORE WOULD BE UNABLE TO ACHIEVE OUR PLANNED FUTURE GROWTH.
We intend to pursue a growth strategy that includes development of the Company
business and technology. Currently we have limited capital which is insufficient
to pursue our plans for development and growth. Our ability to implement our
growth plans will depend primarily on our ability to obtain additional private
or public equity or debt financing. We are currently seeking additional capital.
Such financing may not be available at all, or we may be unable to locate and
secure additional capital on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us. Our
failure to obtain additional capital will have a material adverse effect on our
business.
16
NEVADA LAW AND OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION PROTECT OUR DIRECTORS FROM CERTAIN
TYPES OF LAWSUITS, WHICH COULD MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR US TO RECOVER DAMAGES FROM
THEM IN THE EVENT OF A LAWSUIT.
Nevada law provides that our directors will not be liable to our company or to
our stockholders for monetary damages for all but certain types of conduct as
directors. Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors
and officers against all damages incurred in connection with our business to the
fullest extent provided or allowed by law. The exculpation provisions may have
the effect of preventing stockholders from recovering damages against our
directors caused by their negligence, poor judgment or other circumstances. The
indemnification provisions may require our company to use our assets to defend
our directors and officers against claims, including claims arising out of their
negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.
FAILURE TO ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN EFFECTIVE INTERNAL CONTROLS IN ACCORDANCE WITH
SECTION 404 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON
OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS.
It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement
the additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures required by
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting,
internal auditing and other finance staff in order to develop and implement
appropriate additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures. If
we are unable to comply with these requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we
may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires of publicly traded companies.
If we fail to comply in a timely manner with the requirements of Section 404 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to
remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify,
such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements,
cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and
have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations,
beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal period ending
December 31, 2009, we will be required to prepare assessments regarding internal
controls over financial reporting and beginning with our annual report on Form
10-K for our fiscal period ending December 31, 2009, furnish a report by our
management on our internal control over financial reporting. We have begun the
process of documenting and testing our internal control procedures in order to
satisfy these requirements, which is likely to result in increased general and
administrative expenses and may shift management time and attention from
revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. While our management is
expending significant resources in an effort to complete this important project,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our objective on a
timely basis. There also can be no assurance that our auditors will be able to
issue an unqualified opinion on management's assessment of the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting. Failure to achieve and maintain
an effective internal control environment or complete our Section 404
certifications could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.
In addition, in connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting, we may discover "material
weaknesses" in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is
a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that
results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The
PCAOB defines "significant deficiency" as a deficiency that results in more than
17
a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements that is more
than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
In the event that a material weakness is identified, we will employ qualified
personnel and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any
material weaknesses that we identify. However, the process of designing and
implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us
to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and
regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system
of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a
public company. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will
remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement
and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the
future.
Any failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial
reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to
implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their
implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our
reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial
statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of the
periodic management evaluations of our internal controls and, in the case of a
failure to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify, would
adversely affect the annual auditor attestation reports regarding the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that are required
under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Inadequate internal controls could
also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information,
which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.
