BUTTE HIGHLANDS MINING COMPANY

(A Development Stage Company)

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2011




NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana.  The Company was reorganized in October 1996 for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties.  As of the date of reorganization, stockholders representing approximately 76% of the outstanding capital stock could not be located.  In order to obtain the quorum necessary for the special meetings, the Company obtained an order from the Superior Court of Spokane County, Washington appointing a trustee for the benefit of those stockholders which could not be located.  


As of May 17, 2007 the Company had disposed of all of its historical mineral properties or claims, and has reentered the development stage.  The Board of Directors intends to seek out an appropriate business opportunity and has not limited its search to any particular industry. Management believes it can identify opportunities in several sectors and will proceed with the appropriate diligence to create value for the shareholders. Operations are primarily conducted from the Company headquarters in Spokane, Washington.


The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein includes all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.  Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


This summary of significant accounting policies of Butte Highlands Mining Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.


Property and Equipment

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Major renewals and betterments are capitalized.  When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations.  Depreciation expense for the periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $27 and $27, respectively.

BUTTE HIGHLANDS MINING COMPANY

(A Development Stage Company)

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2011




Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50, include cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at March 31, 2011.


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


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


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


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


The Company measures its investments at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 3.


The Company did not have any assets measured at fair value at March 31, 2011.


Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under the approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5 to allow recognition of such an asset. See Note 5.


NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS


The Company held securities classified as available for sale until sold in 2010. Amounts are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholders’ equity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method; realized gains and losses resulting from such sales are included in investment income.


Investment securities are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 320-10 Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. We periodically review our investments for indications of other than temporary impairment considering many factors, including the extent and duration to which a security's fair value has been less than its cost, overall economic and market conditions, and the financial condition and specific prospects for the issuer. Impairment of investment securities results in a charge to income when a market decline below cost is other than temporary.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2011



Unrealized gains and losses are recorded on the income statement as other comprehensive income (loss) and also on the balance sheet as other comprehensive income. The Company recognized an unrealized loss for the period ended March 31, 2011 of $0 and an unrealized loss for the period ended March 31, 2010 of $2,460.


NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


The Company utilized office facilities provided by its president.  The value of the office facilities provided by the Company’s president is nominal and immaterial to the financial statements.


NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES


Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5.


Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes.


Significant components of the deferred tax assets for the periods ended March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Cautionary Statement


Some sections of this management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations may contain forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions that are not statements of historical facts.  This document and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance.  The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intends,” “estimates,” “forecast,” “project” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.  The forward-looking statements in this document are based upon various assumptions, and although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, these statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, and are difficult to predict.  Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements.   Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s view only as of the date of this report.


Business of Butte Highlands Mining Company


Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte,” “We” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana. The Company is inactive, having sold the last of its mining claims in 2007.


We intend to acquire an interest in a business seeking the perceived advantages of a publicly registered corporation.  We will not restrict our search to any specific business or industry, and we may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. The Company may seek a business opportunity with an entity which has recently commenced operations, wishes to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital to expand into new products or markets, develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes.  The Company may acquire assets and/or establish subsidiaries in various businesses, or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.  Business opportunities may be available in many different industries at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.


Management of the Company, while not experienced in matters relating to the new direction of the Company, will rely primarily upon their own efforts to accomplish the business purposes.  The Company does not anticipate a significant change in the number of employees during the next 12 months. It is not anticipated that any outside consultants or advisors, other than the Company's legal counsel, will be utilized to effectuate its business purposes described herein. During the next twelve months, the Company expects to be able to satisfy its cash requirements, and does not foresee the need to raise additional capital during this period.

Effective July 6, 2009 the Company’s Class A Common Stock was registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Effective April 29, 2010, our Class A Common Stock was listed for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board.  Our trading symbol is “BTHI”

Result of Operations for period ended March 31, 2011 compared to the period ended March 31, 2010

During the three month period ended March 31, 2011, the Company had a net loss of $10,521 compared to a net loss of $4,742 during the three month period ended March 31, 2010.  This represents an increased net loss of $ 5,779 during the three month period ended March 31, 2011. The increase in net loss is attributable to a gain on the sale of an investment over the respective three month period ended March 31, 2010.

Total operating expenses decreased to $10,534 during the three month period ended March 31, 2011 from $19,270 for the comparable period ended March 31, 2010.  The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased professional fees and general and administrative expenses over the respective three month period ended March 31, 2010.
