PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
--------
Gulf Shores Investments, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on
May 8, 2009. Our principal business is the management of real estate
properties. Our operations include managing income producing commercial
and residential real estate properties. We do not currently manage any
properties, but we are currently seeking properties to manage. We were
organized in May 2009 and are based in Seminole, Florida. Our website is
located at www.gulfshoresinvestments.com
The Company will not voluntarily send an annual report to
shareholders. The Company will file reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the public may read a copy of any materials we
file with the Commission. You may obtain copies of these reports
directly from us or from the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at
100 F. Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549, and you may obtain
information about obtaining access to the Reference Room by calling the
SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains information for
electronic filers at its website http://www.sec.gov.
Our management is experienced in the real estate industry and reviews
and recommends suitable projects for the Company consistent with its
policies and objectives to maximize the return on properties it
manages. The Company has not identified any specific properties to
manage.
The Company's principal business is the management of real estate
properties. The operations include managing income producing commercial
and residential real estate properties. We intend to manage properties
and lease them to long-term tenants. We will operate the properties as
the property manager and work toward improving the properties' cash
flow.
We draw on the experience of our management to provide research and
economic and statistical data in connection with the Company's
activities. The Company's management plans to search for opportunities
to manage real estate properties and obtain for the Company such
services as may be required for property management.
We will continue to seek out opportunities to manage real estate
properties and intend to enhance our capabilities by adding personnel or
entering joint ventures with similar firms.
Once we identify suitable real estate projects for property management,
we will work with the owners of the properties to improve the cash flow
of the properties with long-term tenants. Such property owners may
include banks, investment funds, developers and individual owners; our
management intends to utilize its contacts among these entities to
facilitate such relationships. We have no property management contracts
at this time nor have we entered into any discussions with any such
potential owners. The funding of the cash required to consummate any
5
property management contracts will likely consist of a private placement
of debt and/or equity securities possibly through the assistance of a
broker-dealer. We intend to sell only shares of Common Stock or
securities that are convertible into shares of Common Stock and
accordingly believe that such a placement would not result in any change
in control. However, the specific amount, timing and terms of any such
placement will not be known until an agreement has been executed by the
Company and by any potential property owners.
David Dreslin our President is a Florida licensed real estate
professional. Mr. Dreslin has been actively involved in real estate
development and investing since 2006. He has experience in multi-
family, commercial and residential real estate properties. Mr. Dreslin
also has a number of real estate related clients in his accounting
practice and he has experience in real estate valuations.
Sanjiv Matta our Secretary, a Florida licensed real estate
professional. Mr. Matta has 15 years experience in real estate
development, sales and marketing. Mr. Matta has been involved in over
$500 million in real estate developments, and most recently he has been
involved in distressed real estate workouts and auction resale.
Our Operating Strategy
----------------------
We seek opportunities to manage real estate properties where we believe
we can achieve higher cash flows and capital appreciation for the owners
as a result of our property management efforts. Our strategy for
achieving our goals consists of the following elements:
- Focusing our efforts in markets that the we believe have favorable
conditions to support growth in occupancy and rental rates, and
- Utilizing management's experience in property management,
accounting and billing, and rehab and maintenance.
Our initial focus is on Florida and the southeastern region of the
United States particularly where we perceive there to be the potential
to manage undervalued and distressed properties. We believe we can
enhance the value of these properties through the execution of our
strategy for long-term leases with professional on-site management and
quality property rehab and maintenance. However, we will not limit our
services to any particular individual geographic markets or submarkets.
Moreover, we will not restrict our services to certain locations in
markets or submarkets, as we may find value-adding opportunities in
large metropolitan areas, suburban submarkets, smaller cities or rural
locations.
Our Real Estate Management Criteria
-----------------------------------
We expect to manage properties in well-located, sometimes under-
performing real estate markets. We will attempt to identify those
markets and submarkets with job growth opportunities and demand
6
demographics that support potential long-term value appreciation for the
owners of the properties. We seek to identify and manage properties with
the following characteristics:
- Significant potential for increases in the number of tenant leases
and the potential for increased rental rates,
- Locations in markets currently in transition or recovery with
favorable long-term job growth and supply/demand demographics, which may
allow for increased occupancy or rental rates,
- Historic mismanagement or under-management,
- Under-valued compared with other properties within their market,
and
- Barriers to additional or replacement projects.
Management of the Properties
----------------------------
We plan to engage our own employees and third party management companies
as agents for on-site management of our properties depending on the
geographic location. Generally such agreements will provide for a
management fee between 2% and 5% of the gross monthly receipts of each
property and are for a term of one year, but can be terminated by either
party upon thirty days written notice. We currently have not entered
into any discussions or contracts with any potential employees or third
parties for on-site management of our properties.
Competition
-----------
We do not currently manage any properties and therefore the competition
describe below is a form of competition that may occur.
The real estate property management market is highly competitive.
Competing properties may be newer or have more desirable locations than
our properties. If the market does not absorb foreclosed or newly
constructed properties, market vacancies will increase and market rents
may decline. As a result, we may have difficulty leasing units within
our properties and may be forced to lower rents on leases to compete
effectively, which lowers the fees we can generate.
We may compete for the management of properties with many entities,
including, among others, national property management and real estate
companies, as well as local property management and real estate
companies and individuals. Many competitors may have substantially
greater financial resources than we do. In addition, certain
competitors may be willing to accept lower fees for their services. If
competitors prevent us from managing properties that may be targeted for
contracts our service fees and valuation may be impacted.
Current Operations
------------------
The registrant has advanced its business plans with the hire of Sanjiv
Matta, a Florida licensed real estate professional. Mr. Matta has 15
years experience in real estate management, development, sales and
marketing. Mr. Matta has been involved in over $500 million in real
estate developments. Since 1995 to present Mr. Matta has been a
7
Managing Member of Dhampur Sampatyi, an India based real estate
developer. The company is a builder and operator of real estate
projects in India, the USA and the Caribbean. Dhampur Sampatyi has
developed over $600 million in multi-family and commercial properties
over 15 years. Since 2001 to present Mr. Matta has been involved in the
management of developments for Tricon Development, a Florida based real
estate developer. Tricon has developed over $150 million in multi-
family residential development projects including Somerset Riverfront,
Oceanique, The Claridges, Howard Johnson Riverfront, Ocean Park-
Hutchinson Island. From 2006 - 2009 Mr. Matta served as a manager and
advisor at the Navigator REO Fund and the Mortgage and Asset Xchange.
These two funds manage over $500 million in real estate properties and
mortgages. During this same time Mr. Matta participated in real estate
seminar selling as president of Indus Planet, a firm marketing 7,000
residential lots in Florida to buyers worldwide by way of seminars and
indirect selling through bulk buyers. Most recently, since 2009 Mr.
Matta launched a program as principal in a television promotion driven,
internet auction sale of REO properties where hundreds of homes were
sold each month. Mr. Matta established the joint venture partnerships,
raised the required capital and operated an organized acquisition REO
platform. ROE properties are bank reposed "Real Estate Owned"
properties, which are defined as properties in the possession of a
lender as a result of a foreclosure or forfeiture.
The registrant's initial focus has been on identifying properties to
manage in Southwest Florida - Ft. Myers/Naples. The Southwest Florida
multi-family residential property market has been hard hit by the recent
economic downturn. Properties in this marketplace are selling at an
average of 33% below 2007 property values. Foreclosed and bank
repossessed real estate owned (REO) properties are at an even greater
discount to the previous market highs. We are currently in discussions
with banks and developers of distressed condominium projects in this
market proposing to manage the properties to improve their cash
flow. These negotiations are on-going and subject to the company
securing management contracts under acceptable terms.
Employees
As of October 26, 2010, our officers conduct all of our operations. We
plan to employ more qualified employees in the near future. We have not
yet entered into employment agreements with our officers.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal
proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However,
litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result
in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our
business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or
claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or operating results.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
a) Market Information. Our common stock is quoted on the OTCBB; our
stock symbol is "GFVT". There has been no trading of our common stock
and there is no assurance that a public market will develop.
b) At October 26, 2010, there were approximately 43 holders of record
of the registrant's common stock.
c) Holders of the registrant's common stock are entitled to receive
dividends. The payment and amount of future dividends is at the
discretion of our board of directors. No dividends have ever been
paid, and the registrant does not anticipate that dividends will be paid
on its common stock in the foreseeable future.
d) No securities are authorized for issuance by the registrant under
equity compensation plans.
e) Performance graph. Not applicable.
f) Sale of unregistered securities.
During the year ended June 30, 2010, the registrant issued common stock
as follows:
In July 2009, we issued an aggregate of 75,000 shares of our common
stock to Anslow & Jaclin, LLP, as compensation for legal services
rendered. These securities were issued pursuant to the exemption
provided under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. These shares of our
common stock qualified for exemption since the issuance shares by us did
not involve a public offering. The offering was not a "public offering"
as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons
involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and
number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which
we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In
addition, the shareholder had the necessary investment intent as
required by Section 4(2) since she agreed to and received share
certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted
pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures
that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market
and therefore not be part of a "public offering." Based on an analysis
of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for
exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for this transaction.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, we completed a Regulation D
Rule 506 offering in which we sold 198,000 shares of common stock to 41
investors, of which 15 were accredited and 26 were non-accredited, at a
price per share of $0.0033 for an aggregate offering price of $20,660.

Item 5(b) Use of Proceeds. Not applicable.
Item 5(c) Purchases of Equity Securities by the issuers and
affiliated purchasers. None.
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following plan of operation provides information which management
believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results
of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read
along with our financial statements and notes thereto. This section
includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current
views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-
looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect,
estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words
which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place
undue certainty on these forward-looking statements. These forward-
looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from our predictions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
As of June 30, 2010, we had $1,449 cash on hand.
Based upon the above, we do not believe we have enough cash to support
our daily operations while we are attempting to commence operations and
produce revenues. We estimate the Company needs an additional $49,000 to
implement its business plans over the next twelve months. We anticipate
we will need a minimum of $39,000 to cover marketing and operational
expenses for the next twelve months. The majority shareholder has
committed to cover any cash shortfalls of the Company, although there is
no written agreement or guarantee. If we are unable to satisfy our cash
requirements we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations.
Future financing for real estate management operations may not be
available to us on acceptable terms. To raise equity will require the
sale of stock and the debt financing will require intuitional or private
lenders. We do not have any institutional or private lending sources
identified. If debt financing is not available or not available on
satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue expanding our
operations. Equity financing will result in a dilution to existing
shareholders.
The foregoing represents our best estimate of our cash needs based on
current planning and business conditions. In the event we are not
successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds may
11
be required, and we may not be able to proceed with our business plan
for the development and marketing of our core services. Should this
occur, we will suspend or cease operations.
We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of
operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future.
Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern.
Investing Activities
--------------------
For the year ended June 30, 2010 and from inception on May 8, 2009
through June 30, 2009, we did not pursue any investing activities.
Financing Activities. For the year ended June 30, 2010, we received
proceeds from notes payable - related parties of $7,500 and we sold
common stock for cash of $20,860. As a result, we had net cash provided
by financing activities of $28,360
For the period from inception on May 8, 2009 through June 30, 2009, we
sold common stock for cash of $40,000 resulting in net cash provided by
financing activities of $40,000.
Limited Operating History
-------------------------
We have generated no independent financial history and have not
previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business
through increased investment in marketing activities. We cannot
guarantee that the expansion efforts described in this Registration
Statement will be successful. The business is subject to risks inherent
in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and
possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods.
Future financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms. If debt
financing is not available or not available on satisfactory terms, we
may be unable to continue expanding our operations. Equity financing
will result in a dilution to existing shareholders.
In January 2010, the board of directors approved a three for one forward
split. The board of directors hopes the decision to restructure the
Company's capital structure will potentially lead to greater liquidity
of the Company's common stock in the future. In addition, the Board of
Directors hopes the forward split will attract potential investors.
Results of Operations
---------------------
For the year ended June 30, 2010, we had no revenue. Expenses for the
year totaled $60,065 resulting in a net loss of $60,065. Operating
expenses consisted of consulting fees-related party of $18,900,
professional fees of $33,750 and general and administrative of $7,415.
12
For the period from May 8, 2009 (inception) to June 30, 2009, we had no
revenue. Expenses for the period totaled $38,846 resulting in a net
loss of $38,846. Expenses for the period consisted of consulting fees -
related party of $24,000, professional fees of $13,500 and general and
administrative expenses of $1,346.
Plan of Operation
-----------------
We have commenced limited operations and we will require outside capital
to implement our business model.
1. All business functions will be coordinated and managed by our
founder, including marketing, finance and operations. We intend to
contract with outside professionals to facilitate services for the on-
site management of properties and real estate rehab and maintenance
services that may be required. These services include total property
management responsibilities for the care and upkeep of the property. We
will use independent contractors as leasing agents, as well as for
janitorial services, lawn services and general maintenance services as
required on-site from time to time. The Company has no outside
contracts, but we intend to contract with these professionals under
normal industry terms, which may include lease fees in the 2% - 5% range
depending on the nature of the services.
2. We will focus on evaluating our performance based on the
following criteria during the next twelve months of operations as the
Company emerges from the development stage:
a. Number of new real estate projects
i. The Company will initially look for distressed and under-
managed projects in Southwest Florida. The Southwest Florida multi-
family residential property market has been hard hit by the recent
economic downturn. Properties in this marketplace are selling at an
average of 33% below 2007 property values. Foreclosed and bank
repossessed real estate owned (REO) properties are at an even greater
discount to the previous market highs. We are currently in discussions
with banks and developers of distressed condominium projects in this
market proposing to manage the properties to improve their cash
flow. These negotiations are on-going and subject to the Company
securing management contracts under acceptable terms.
ii. Over the next twelve months, the Company intends to identify at
least ten suitable properties for management.
iii. The Company incurs nominal travel expenses associated with the
search for properties since the Southwest Florida region is nearby its
home office.
We have not entered into any contracts or agreements to manage any
properties. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify
suitable properties for management or be able to negotiate property
management contracts on favorable terms with the property owners.
13
b. Expense management
i. The Company has a limited operating budget and has maintained
tight expense controls.
ii. Over the next twelve months, the Company anticipates its minimum
need for additional funding is $49,000 to implement its business plans
over the next twelve months. We anticipate operating expenses to be
$24,000 prior to generating revenues. These expenses are estimated at
$2,000 per month primarily travel related cost associated with the
search for properties to manage in Southwest Florida. The Company has
targeted to identify 10 suitable properties for management over the next
twelve months. The Company will also incur $15,000 in marketing
expenses associated with the development of promotional materials and
attendance at trade shows. The Company will incur additional operating
expenses once the Company generates revenues, which are tied to
commissions paid to leasing agents and operating expenses associated
with the upkeep of the properties. The Company plans to hire on a
commission-only basis at such time as the Company has signed property
management contracts, so no additional expenses are created until
revenues are generated. There can be no assurance that we will be able
to align ourselves with professionals for services on a commission-only
basis
c. Achieving positive cash flow
i. After the Company's properties are under management, we will
launch a marketing campaign to attempt generate revenues. There can be
no assurance that we will be able to implement our business development
plans and that we will be successful in negotiating new contracts to
manage properties or attract tenants to utilize the properties.
ii. Over the next twelve months the Company anticipates its minimum
cash needs to be $49,000 prior to generating revenues.
d. Creating strategic alliance relationships
i. The Company intends to contract with outside professionals to
facilitate services for the on-site management of properties and real
estate rehab and maintenance services that may be required. These
services include total property management responsibilities for the care
and upkeep of the property. We will use independent contractors as
leasing agents, as well as for janitorial services, lawn services and
general maintenance services as required on-site from time to time.
ii. Over the next twelve months, the Company intends to hire
additional employees on a commission only basis at such time as the
Company has signed property management contracts, so no additional
expenses are created until revenues are generated. In January, the
Company hired Sanjiv Matta, a Florida licensed real estate professional
to assist the president in furthering the business plan by identifying
new properties for management in Southwest Florida. Mr. Matta is a
commission-only employee.
14
iii. The Company has no contracts with outside vendors, but we intend
to contract with these professionals under normal industry terms, which
may include leasing fees in the 2% - 5% range depending on the nature of
the services.
Our growth is driven by the number of new real estate projects that we
evaluate and contract for management. There is no assurance we will be
able to secure such management contracts for properties or be able to
lease-out such properties on a profitable basis. Certain competitors may
be willing to accept lower fees based on their overhead structure. As a
result, we may have difficulty attracting new properties to manage and
tenants to utilize the properties. There can also be no assurance that
we will be able to align ourselves with professionals for services on a
commission only basis.
3. Our plan of operation includes launching a targeted marketing
campaign focusing on property management trade show participation, media
promotions and public relations during the third quarter of 2010. The
marketing is estimated to cost $15,000, in addition to our estimated
minimum travel and operating expenses of $2,000 per month. The majority
shareholder has committed to cover any cash shortfalls of the Company,
although there is no written agreement or guarantee. The majority
shareholder, David Dreslin, owns 77% of the Company and is the Company's
president and primary employee. If we are unable to satisfy our cash
requirements we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations.
We intend to support our marketing efforts through the development of
high-quality marketing materials and an attractive and informative
website, www.GulfShoresInvestments.com. There can be no assurance we
will be successful in implementing our marketing campaign or that we
will be able to provide our services at lower costs than other property
managers. There can also be no assurance that we will be able to align
ourselves with professionals for services on a commission-only
basis. The development of an on-going marketing campaign will require
the commitment of substantial resources. If additional capital is not
available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our
business development plans or continue our business operations.
4. Over the next 12 month after the initiation of our marketing
campaign, we believe that we will have identified suitable properties to
manage and lease-out to begin to generate revenues from our targeted
marketing approach. This refers to the minimum amount of time that we
estimate will be required to generate revenues based on meetings with
banks and developers in the Southwest Florida property market. Once a
property is identified we will need to negotiate a management contract
with the property owner. Only after a property is identified and
contracted can we begin managing the property for a fee from the
property owners to generate revenues, typically between 5% - 10% of
gross monthly rents. We have not entered into any contracts or
agreements to manage any properties. There can be no assurance that we
will be able to identify suitable properties for management or be able
to negotiate property management contracts on favorable terms with the
property owners.
15
Our future will depend on our ability to identify suitable properties to
manage and our ability to bring our services to the market place, which
requires careful planning of providing a service that meets our
customer's standards without incurring unnecessary cost and
expense. Our operational results can be affected by our ability to
introduce our services or to adjust pricing to try to gain a competitive
advantage. There can be no assurance we will be able to implement our
property management services.
We are still pursuing this plan but to date we have not been able to
raise additional funds through either debt or equity offerings. Without
this additional cash, we have been unable to pursue our plan of
operations and commence generating revenue. We believe that we may not
e able to raise the necessary funds to continue to pursue our business
operations. As a result of the foregoing, we have recently begun to
explore our options regarding the development of a new business plan and
direction. We are currently engaged in the discussions with a company
regarding the possibility of a reverse triangular merger involving our
company. At this stage, no definitive terms have been agreed to, and
neither party is currently bound to proceed with the merger.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Gulf Shores Investments, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Gulf Shores
Investments, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2010 and
2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and
from inception on May 8, 2009 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 conduct 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 Gulf Shores
Investments, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2010 and
2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and
from inception on May 8, 2009 through June 30, 2010, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
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 had a loss from operations of
$60,065, an accumulated deficit of $98,911, working capital deficit of
37,801 and has earned no revenues since inception, which raises
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note
2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GULF SHORES INVESTMENTS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
From Inception Through June 30, 2010
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
The financial statements presented are those of Gulf Shores Investments,
Inc. The Company was originally incorporated under the laws of the
state of Nevada on May 8, 2009. The Company has not commenced
significant operations and, in accordance with ASC Topic 915, is
considered a development stage company. Gulf Shores Investments, Inc.
seeks real estate management opportunities where it believes it can
achieve higher cash flows as a result of its efforts. The Company's
initial focus is on Florida and the southeastern region of the United
States particularly where it perceives there to be the potential to
manage undervalued and distressed properties. The Company believes it
can enhance the value of these properties through the execution of its
strategy. The Company expects to manage real estate properties in well-
located, sometimes under-performing real estate markets. The Company
attempts to identify those markets and submarkets with job growth
opportunities and demand demographics that support potential long-term
value appreciation for the properties it manages.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Dividends
The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends.
No dividends have been paid during any of the periods shown.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues and related expenses from rendering property management
services are recognized when services are completed and billed. In some
situations, we may receive advance payments from our customers. The
Company will defer revenue associated with these advance payments until
it has completed the contracted services.
Advertising Costs
The Company's policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising
when incurred. The Company had not incurred any advertising expense as
of June 30, 2010.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held
for investment purposes. As at June 30, 2010 the Company had no cash
equivalents.

Notes to Financial Statements
From Inception Through June 30, 2010
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Basic (Loss) per Common Share
Basic (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss
applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is
calculated by dividing the Company's net income available to common
shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of
shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for
any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock
equivalents outstanding as of June 30, 2010.

=========== ===========
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under ASC 740 "Accounting for
Income Taxes". ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability
approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in
effect when these differences are expected to reverse.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation
allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more
likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be
provided by applying the statutory federal and state income tax rate of
39% to net loss before provision for income taxes for the following
reasons:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances
that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be
recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present,
the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by
determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered
through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the
future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the
Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the
carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed
of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value
less costs to sell.
Property
The Company does not own or rent any property. Office space is provided
by the Company's president at no charge.
Accounting Basis
The basis is accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. The Company has adopted a June 30 fiscal year end.
Stock-based compensation
In July 2009, the Company issued 75,000 shares of stock as part of our
fee agreement for legal services associated with the Company's S-1
filing. The shares were valued at $0.00333 per share.

Notes to Financial Statements
From Inception Through June 30, 2010
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The above issuance of stock reflects the effect of the Company's 3 for 1
forward stock split effective on January 5, 2010 (see Note 6).
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718
(formerly SFAS No. 123R "Share Based Payments"), using the fair value
method. All transactions in which goods or services are the
consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are
accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or
the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more
reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost
of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized
based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements and
believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the
year ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized no sales revenue and
incurred a net loss of $60,065, and had an accumulated deficit of
$98,911 from inception on May 8, 2009 through June 30, 2010. The
continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the
continued financial support from its Shareholders, the ability to raise
equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations
from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial
doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company
be unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer who are
responsible for all financial and accounting matters during this
reporting period have concluded that the disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010. These controls are meant
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the
reports that it files or submits under the Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the
Commission's rules and forms and 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.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over
financial reporting is the process designed by and under the supervision
of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, or the
persons performing similar functions, to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation
of our financial statements for external reporting in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These officers have evaluated the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO) in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Guidance for
Smaller Public Companies.
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have assessed
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
June 30, 2010, and concluded that it was effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the
registrant's registered public accounting firm regarding internal
control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject
to attestation by the registrant's registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
that permit the registrant to provide only management's report in this
annual report.
29
Evaluation of Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have evaluated
changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred
during the year ended June 30, 2010. Based on that evaluation, our
chief executive officer and chief financial officer, or those persons
performing similar functions, did not identify any change in our
internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
Important Considerations:
The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our
internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent
limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision
making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness
of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud.
Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of
compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time.
Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system
of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial
reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in
making all material information known in a timely manner to the
appropriate levels of management.
