PRIME ESTATES & DEVELOPMENTS, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2010


NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Prime Estates and Developments, Inc. (“Prime Estates”, “The Company”, “we”, or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 21, 2009 for the purpose of acquiring and operating commercial real estate and real estate related assets.  On the date of its inception, the Company issued 20 million shares of its common stock to three founders which were recorded at no value (offsetting increases and decreases in Common Stock and Additional Paid in Capital).

In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements includes all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.  Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of October 31, 2010 and July 31, 2010, there were no cash equivalents.

Development Stage Enterprise

The Company complies with the accounting rules related to the characterization of the Company as development stage.

Revenue Recognition

We plan to recognize revenues from real estate sales under the full accrual method which requires that revenues be recognized when the sale is consummated; when the initial and continuing investments by the buyer in the property are sufficient; All the risks and rewards of ownership reside with buyer; There is no continuing duty or involvement by the seller post-sale (after closing); and, There is no future subordination of any buyer receivable (seller financing cases).

The Company may also earn rental income and management fees.  The fees are recognized as they are earned.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the accounting rules related to Property, Plant and Equipment (“Codification Topic 360”). Under these rules, long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment charge is recognized or the amount, if any, which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments, including cash, receivables, accounts payable, and notes payable are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these amounts or due to variable rates of interest which are consistent with market rates.  No adjustments have been made in the current period.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the accounting rules related to income taxes (“Codification Topic 740”). Under these rules, deferred tax assets and liabilities 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 basis. 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 effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. There was no current or deferred income tax expense or benefits for the periods ending October 31, 2010 and July 31, 2010.
 
7

 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. The per share amounts include the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. Basic and diluted loss per share is the same due to the anti dilutive nature of potential common stock equivalents.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the accounting provisions relating to share-based payments (“Codification Topic 718”).  The company accounts for the stock options issued to non-employees in accordance with these provisions.

The Company did not grant any stock options or warrants during the periods presented.

Organizational and Offering Costs

Costs incurred to organize the Company are expensed as incurred. Offering costs incurred in connection with the Company’s common share offerings are reflected as a reduction of capital upon the receipt of the net proceeds of the offering or charged to expense if the offering is not completed. No such costs have been incurred as of October 31, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Prime Estates does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies Prime Estates will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year.  Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and 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 Prime Estates be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company had incurred losses and has a working capital deficit as of October 31, 2010, these factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company intends to acquire and operate commercial real estate but will require capital to do so.  There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to make our acquisitions or if, upon acquiring properties, we will be able to generate positive cash flows from operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding Prime Estates’ ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 200 million common shares.  At July 31, 2010, we had 24,218,960 common shares issued and outstanding.

During the three months ended October 31, 2010, we issued 56,322 shares to four accredited investors for $22,529 in cash. $13,479 of this amount was not received until November 3, 2010 and is accounted for in the equity section of the balance sheet entitled “Stock subscriptions receivable”.

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 100 million shares of preferred stock which has preferential liquidation rights over common stock and is non-voting.  As of October 31, 2010, no shares have been issued.

Potentially Dilutive Securities

No options, warrants or other potentially dilutive securities have been issued as of October 31, 2010.

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES

The Company has tax losses which may be applied against future taxable income. The potential tax benefits arising from these loss carryforwards expire beginning in 2029 and are offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of profitable operations in the future. The estimated net tax loss carryforward was approximately $81,400 at October 31, 2010, resulting in a potential tax benefit of approximately $28,496.

The significant components of the deferred tax asset as of October 31, 2010 and July 31, 2010 are as follows:

   
October 31, 2010
   
July 31, 2010
 
Net operating loss carry-forwards
    28,496       25,422  
Valuation allowance
    (28,496 )     (25,422 )
Net deferred tax asset
    -       -  

NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In January, 2010, certain shareholders paid expenses on behalf of the company totaling $15,872.  This contribution is not evidenced by a promissory note and bears no interest and is unpaid as of October 31, 2010.  For the three months ended October 31, 2010, we imputed $238 of interest, charging interest expense with that amount and increasing Additional Paid in Capital.

NOTE 6 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of the financial statements.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

This 10−Q contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those set forth as a result of general economic conditions and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing else where in this report. The analysis set forth below is provided pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is not intended to serve as a basis for projections of future events. Refer also to “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” below.

Business

Company Overview

Prime Estates and Developments, Inc. (“Prime Estates”, “The Company”, “we”, or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 21, 2009 for the purpose of acquiring and operating commercial real estate and real estate related assets.  Our principal office is located at 200 South Wacker Drive, Suite 3100, Chicago, Illinois 60606. Telephone: 312.674.4529.

Our Business

We intend to acquire and operate commercial real estate and real estate related-assets in Greece, Bulgaria, Romania and the United States. We intend to focus on acquiring commercial properties such as those requiring development, redevelopment or repositioning, those located in markets and submarkets with what we believe to be high growth potential and those available from sellers who are distressed or face time-sensitive deadlines.

In addition, given current economic circumstances in the real estate industry, our investment strategy may also include investments in real estate-related assets that we believe present opportunities for significant current income. Such investments may also have what we believe to be opportunities for capital gain, whether as a result of a discount purchase or related equity participations.

We may acquire a wide variety of commercial properties, including office, industrial, retail, hospitality, recreation and leisure, single-tenant, multifamily and other real properties such as forests. These properties may be existing, income-producing properties, newly constructed properties or properties under development or construction and may include multifamily properties purchased for conversion into condominiums and single-tenant properties that may be converted for multifamily use.

Assuming we raise sufficient funding, our investment strategy is designed to provide investors with a diversified portfolio of real estate assets.  Although we have reviewed the real estate markets in the countries in which we intend to acquire properties, we have no contract, agreement or commitment to acquire any property as of the date of this filing.

Specifically, we have taken the following steps in furtherance of our business plan:
 
We have enriched our knowledge in the real estate market in Greece, Bulgaria, Romania and the United States by studying the existing statistics on this market and by having extensive discussions with many experts of the market as follows:

 
·
Overall we have reviewed 39 properties or development projects in two countries, the USA and Greece.

 
·
The types of properties we have reviewed are 8 residential and 31 commercial.

 
·
Overall we have met with 37 real estate agents in two countries, the USA and Greece.

 
·
We have met with 20 real estate agents in the U.S. and another 17 in Greece.

 
·
We have contacted two appraisers, one in the U.S. and another one in Greece. The appraiser we contacted in Greece is able to make appraisals also in Bulgaria and in Romania. In his team he also includes other scientists such as architects, engineers, topographers and seismologists.

 
·
We have signed Consulting Agreements with 8 consultants that will assist the company in Management, Public Relations, Strategic Planning, Corporate organization & structure, estimation, due diligence, acquisition, development, renovation, sale, and management of Real Estate properties, locating proper Real Estate, management of Real Estate, and locating and introducing buyers for Real Estate that the company wishes to lease or sell.
 
10

 
 
·
In July 2010 we signed a Joint Venture Agreement with Madison Realty Advisors, LLC (“Madison”). Madison has extensive experience in the business of acquiring, financing, managing and selling commercial real estate properties for itself and third parties. Madison will actively seek commercial real estate properties for acquisition. In connection therewith, Madison will negotiate the acquisition, perform due diligence on the properties, arrange financing and close the properties. Then perform property management, asset management and be responsible for the ultimate disposition of the properties. All property acquisitions shall be subject to the approval of Prime.

 
·
In December 2010 we started to examine the possibility of adding forests, or signing joint venture agreements with companies or individuals that own management rights of forests, in order to take advantage of the economic benefits that can derive from these forests, including the so called “carbon credits”. A carbon credit is a generic term for any tradable certificate or permit representing the right to emit one ton of carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide equivalent.  We could sell carbon credits that derive from forestry to commercial and individual customers who are interested in lowering their carbon footprint.

Our discussions with various individuals concerning these properties and projects has included general discussions of acquiring properties directly either ourselves or in a joint venture with others or of developing properties either ourselves or in a joint venture with others, as described above.  As of the date of this filing, all such discussions have been general and we have no specific plan as to whether we will acquire or develop ourselves or jointly any specific properties or projects.  There is no limitation in the amount of funds we may invest in either property acquisition or property development.  There is no limitation on or percentage allocation of funds or assets between property acquisition and property development or between 100% ownership or joint venture ownership.

Results of Operations

As of October 31, 2010, the Company has not yet begun operations, has minimal assets and no revenues.  We have incurred general and administrative costs of $3,800,474 for the period from inception (July 21, 2009) to October 31, 2010, of which $3,720,196 is non-cash compensation for services.  For the three months ended October 31, 2010, we have incurred $8,545 of general and administrative costs.

We have also incurred interest costs of  $238 and $1,190 for the three months ended October 31, 2010 and from inception (July 21, 2010) to October 31, 2010, respectively.

Three Months Ended October 31, 2010 versus Three Months Ended October 31, 2009

We incurred $8,545 of general and administrative costs for the three months ended October 31, 2010 versus $39,019 for the same period in 2009.  In 2009, we had $10,196 in non-cash compensation costs and $12,000 of legal expenses associated with our S-11 filing.  We did not have these costs during the three months ended October 31, 2010.
 
Interest expense was unchanged during the three months ended October 31, 2010 versus the same period in 2009.  This interest is imputed on a shareholder loan of $15,872 which has not changed during the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

The Company has only a small cash balance at October 31, 2010 and no additional liquid resources.  We are currently seeking financing to attain our business goals, but there is no guarantee that we will obtain such financing or, upon obtaining it, that we will be able to invest in productive assets that will result in positive cash flows from operations.

Plan of Operation in the Next Twelve Months

Our activities currently consist of website creation, and establishing additional cooperation agreements with real estate agents to establish the flow of real estate opportunities.  We do not intend to activate a website until we acquire properties and do not intend to put investor info on the site once activated. We have not completed any closings that would result in revenue to date and there can be no assurances that any future closings will result in revenue.

Specifically, our plan of operations for the next 12 months is as follows:

From today until the end of January 2011 we plan to raise additional funds in order to be able to cover our operational expenses and have the needed financing to acquire our first pieces of real estate. We believe that the proceeds raised in our prior Private Placements will satisfy our cash requirements only until we finish our efforts for additional financing at the end of January 2011. If we will not be able to raise any additional funds by the end of January 2011 we do not anticipate to have the ability to continue our operations. We may need to obtain debt financing to implement our business plan. However, we initially contemplate pursuing equity financing only to cover our expenses and finance our first acquisitions of real estate properties. Of course, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise any future capital in any amount and if we fail to do so investors could lose their entire investment.  We estimate the cost of this equity financing if we are able to secure it to be about $6,000, primarily legal and accounting costs and filing fees associated with such an offering.

·
From the beginning of February 2011 until the end of April 2011 we plan to focus our efforts in order to locate the proper properties for acquisition and do a full estimation and due diligence on them. We also plan to create more collaborations with existing real estate agents in order to be able to locate more properties and receive offers from properties that are getting sold at opportunistic prices. We also plan to create collaborations with freelancers who will have specific experience and knowledge in certain specialized real estate areas such as appraisers, engineers, archeologists, etc. The freelancers will be used in case by case scenario whenever there is a need for their specialty. We wish to create such collaborations with freelancers in order to have accurate real estate estimations and development plans, and in order to have these services at discount prices. The cost that we estimate to have in order to locate the freelancers will be about $2,000.

 
·
Moreover, by the end of April 2011 we believe that we will be able to locate enough real estate opportunities and do a full estimation and due diligence on them so that we will be able to take our first decision to acquire our first property. We estimate that the cost in order to locate a property at an opportunistic price and the cost of the needed due diligence for the first property will be about $3,000.

 
·
In May 2011we believe that we will be able to close our first deal, do the necessary paperwork and therefore acquire our first property. Moreover, in order to have a diversified portfolio of properties we plan to locate and acquire at least three more properties by the end of November 2011. Among the properties that we will buy we intent to buy some properties that generate or will within a period of three months generate income from rent. Overall we plan to spend about 80% of the capital that we will have raised in order to acquire real estate properties in the next twelve months. Assuming that we will manage to raise about $10,000,000 until the end of January 2011, we will invest about $8,000,000 in real estate assets. Moreover, we plan to invest up to 5% of our raised funds in more liquid types of assets such as real estate related securities, primarily such as bonds backed by real estate.  We plan to keep the rest of our funds in cash. We estimate that the rest of our cash position will be enough to cover all operational expenses of the company at least until the end of the first quarter of 2012.

Competition

We face significant competition both in acquiring properties, repositioning properties and in attracting renters. Our market area is highly competitive, and we will face direct competition from a significant number of real estate investors, many with a local, state-wide or regional presence and, in some cases, a national presence. Many of these investors are significantly larger and have greater financial resources than we do. We have significantly less capital, assets, revenues, employees and other resources than our local, regional and/or national and international competition.

We will compete based upon the following factors:  We intend to blend best-in-class, sell-side fundamental research with an established quantitative construction process. The team’s systematic approach strives to add excess return while targeting volatility and tracking error to help control risk.  The quantitative approach efficiently processes large volumes of information, analyzes complex interactions and removes behavioral biases from investment decisions. The research is provided by analysts that are selected by the team based on their quality of research, demonstrated record of success, breadth and consistency of coverage.

Intellectual Property

At present, we do not have any patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, and royalty agreements, labor contracts or other proprietary interests.

Employees

We have no employees.  The Company officers and directors are currently fulfilling their roles via consulting agreements.

Research and Development Expenditures

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

(a)  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

In October 2010, we sold 56,322 shares of common stock to 4 non-U.S. investors at $0.40 for total consideration of $22,528.80.

We relied upon Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended for the above issuances to non US citizens or residents.

We believed that Regulation S was available because:

 
·
None of these issuances involved underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions;
 
 
·
We placed Regulation S required restrictive legends on all certificates issued;
 
 
·
No offers or sales of stock under the Regulation S offering were made to persons in the United States;
 
 
·
No direct selling efforts of the Regulation S offering were made in the United States.

·
Access to all our books and records.
 
 
·
Access to all material contracts and documents relating to our operations.
 
 
·
The opportunity to obtain any additional information, to the extent we possessed such information, necessary to verify the accuracy of the information to which the investors were given access.
