Note 1 – Nature of Business

Global Arena Holding Corp. (formerly Global Arena Holding Subsidiary Corp.) (the “Company"), was formed in February 2009, in the state of Delaware. The Company is a financial services firm that services the financial community through its subsidiaries as follows:

Global Arena Investment Management LLC (“GAIM”) provides investment advisory services to its clients. GAIM is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an investment advisor and clears all of its business through Fidelity Advisors (“Fidelity”), its correspondent broker.  Global Arena Commodities Corp. (“GACOM”) provides commodities brokerage services in return for commissions. Global Arena Trading Advisors, LLC (“GATA”) provides futures advisory services in return for fees. GATA is registered with the National Futures Association (NFA) as a commodities trading advisor. Lillybell Entertainment, LLC (“Lillybell”) provides finance services to the entertainment industry.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2011 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the interim period then ended.  The statement of financial condition as of December 31, 2010 was derived from audited financial statements. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and related disclosures filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form DEF 14C (for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010) on April 29, 2011.

Note 3 – Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of the liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses of approximately $633,000 and $1.5 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing, from which the proceeds will be primarily used to execute its operating plan. The Company plans to use its available cash to continue the development and execution of its business plan and expand its client base and services.

However, the Company can give no assurance that such financing will be available on terms advantageous to the Company, or at all. Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, the Company would need to curtail certain or all of its operational activities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Note 4 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Customer security transactions and the related commission income and expense are recorded as of the trade date. The Company generally acts as an agent in executing customer orders to buy or sell listed and over-the-counter securities in which it does not make a market, and charges commissions based on the services the Company provides to its customers.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In connection with the issuance of certain warrants that include price protection reset provisions. The Company determined that the exercise price reset provision feature is an embedded derivative instrument pursuant to ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.”

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the related warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the financial instrument and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value was recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates, which approximates the fair value measured using Binomial Lattice Model.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.  This updated accounting guidance establishes common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).  This guidance includes amendments that clarify the intent about the application of existing fair value measurements and disclosures, while other amendments change a principle or requirement for fair value measurements or disclosures.  This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC did not have, or are not believed by management to have, a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Note 5 – Net Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents from the assumed exercise of options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible notes. Common stock equivalents were excluded in the computation of diluted loss per share since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Total shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants and conversion of convertible promissory notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

Note 6 - Fair Value

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Standard clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability at the measurement date and emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific measurement.

ASC 820 establishes the following hierarchy used in fair value measurements and expands the required disclosures of assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

Level 1 – Inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 – Inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2011

Note 6 - Fair Value (Continued)

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.

Liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2011 are as follows:

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. Our Level 3 liability consisted of warrants with dilutive price reset provisions issued to investors.

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value, including net transfers in and/or out, of all financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. The Company currently is not involved in any legal proceedings.

On October 12, 2011, Harry Friedman filed a complaint with the Nassau County Court, State of New York, Index Number 11-014606 against the Company, as a shareholder of GACC, Josh Winkler, as an officer of GACC and JSM Capital Holding Corp. and Broad Sword Holdings, LLC, as majority shareholders of GACC.  The complaint seeks a recovery on several counts resulting from the purported wrongful termination of Plaintiff and lack of Notice by Global Arena Capital Corp.    The Company is of the opinion that the charges alleged in the complaint are without merit and will be dismissed against the registrant as a minority shareholder. As of November 21, 2011, the complaint is in the discovery phase and the Company does not believe that it has any potential exposure by reason of this complaint.

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

Indemnification

The Company is engaged in providing a broad range of investment services to a diverse group of retail and institutional clientele. Counterparties to the Company’s business activities include broker-dealers and clearing organizations, banks and other financial institutions. The Company uses clearing brokers to process transactions and maintain customer accounts on a fee basis, and the Company permits the clearing firms to extend credit to its clientele secured by cash and securities in the client’s account. The Company’s exposure to credit risk associated with the non-performance by its customers and counterparties in fulfilling their contractual obligations can be directly impacted by volatile or illiquid trading markets, which may impair the ability of customers and counterparties to satisfy their obligations to the Company. The Company has agreed to indemnify the clearing brokers on a limited basis for losses it incurs while extending credit to the Company’s clients.

It is the Company’s policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of its customers and each counterparty.  Amounts due from customers that are considered uncollectible by the clearing broker are charged back to the Company by the clearing broker when such amounts become determinable. Upon notification of a charge back, such amounts, in total or in part, are then either (i) collected from the customers, (ii) charged to the broker initiating the transaction, and/or (iii) charged as an expense in the accompanying statement of operations, based on the particular facts and circumstances.

The maximum potential amount for future payments that the Company could be required to pay under this indemnification cannot be estimated. However, the Company believes that it is unlikely it will have to make any material payments under these arrangements and has not recorded any contingent liability in the consolidated financial statements for this indemnification.

Note 14 – Revenue Concentrations

The Company considers significant revenue concentrations to be clients or brokers who account for 10% or more of the total revenues generated by the Company during the period. The Company had 3 brokers who accounted for 83% of total revenues, which included revenues from a single customer that accounted for 13% of total revenues, during the three months ended September 30, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company had 3 brokers who accounted for 82% of total revenues, which included revenues from a single customer that accounted for 13% of total revenues.

Note 15 – Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events to determine if events or transactions occurring through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, require potential adjustment to or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

On October 12, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to issue a convertible promissory note. Under the term of the agreement the Company will convert a promissory note dated September 30, 2011 and receive additional cash proceeds of $175,000 and issue a convertible promissory note of $250,000. The note has a maturity date of October 13, 2013 and has a stated interest rate of 8% per annum. In addition the Company will grant to the note holder warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share. The warrants have a life of three years and are fully vested on the date of the grant. The note is convertible into common stock at a the lower conversion price of $0.30 per share or the 60 day variable weighted average stock price preceding the notice of conversion.

The Company will account for the issuance of the convertible promissory notes in accordance with ASC 815” Derivatives and Hedging.”  Accordingly, the embedded conversion option of the convertible note will be recorded as a derivative liability at the fair market value and are marked to market through earnings at the end of each reporting period.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition And Results of Operations

Trends and Uncertainties

Global Arena is a financial services firm that services the financial community through its subsidiaries. Demand for Global Arena's services are dependent on general economic conditions, which are cyclical in nature.  Because a major portion of Global Arena’s activities are the receipt of revenues from financial services, our business operations may be adversely affected by competitors and prolonged recessionary periods.

There are no other known trends, events or uncertainties that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our short term or long term liquidity. Sources of liquidity will come from the sale of our services, as well as the private sale of our stock. There are no material commitments for capital expenditure at this time. There are no trends, events or uncertainties that have had or are reasonably expected to have a material impact on the net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations. There are no significant elements of income or loss that do not arise from Global Arena’s continuing operations. There are no other known causes for any material changes from period to period in one or more line items of our financial statements.

Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of the liabilities in the normal course of business. Global Arena Holding has incurred losses of approximately $1.5 million and $540,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

Global Arena Holding plans to use its available cash to continue the development and execution of its business plan and expand its client base and services. However, Global Arena Holding can give no assurance that such financing will be available on terms advantageous to Global Arena Holding, or at all.

Global Arena Holding has incurred losses of approximately $633,000 and $197,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and the three months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

Management believes that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing, from which the proceeds will be primarily used to execute its operating plan. Global Arena Holding plans to use its available cash to continue the development and execution of its business plan and expand its client base and services. However, Global Arena Holding can give no assurance that such financing will be available on terms advantageous to Global Arena Holding, or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

Global Arena Holding’s financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for the registrant include the revenue recognition, cash and cash equivalents and derivative financial instruments.

Revenue Recognition

Global Arena Holding earns revenues through various services it provides to its clients. Advisory fees are on a contractual basis with the fee stipulated in the contract and are recognized based on the terms of the contract during the period service is provided.

30

Customer security transactions and the related commission income and expense are recorded as of the trade date. Global Arena Holding generally acts as an agent in executing customer orders to buy or sell listed and over-the-counter securities in which it does not make a market, and charges commissions based on the services Global Arena provides to its customers.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In connection with the issuance of certain warrants that include price protection reset provisions. Global Arena Holding determined that the exercise price reset provision feature is an embedded derivative instrument pursuant to ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.”

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that Global Arena Holding record the related warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the financial instrument and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value was recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. Global Arena Holding reassesses the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

Global Arena Holding has not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties.

Global Arena Holding does not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC did not have, or are not believed by management to have, a material impact on Global Arena Holding's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.

31

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2011.  Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief principal financial officers have concluded such controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2011 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.

In connection with the December 31, 2010 audit of our consolidated financial statements and our review of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, our independent auditors identified significant deficiencies that together constitute a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. These significant deficiencies primarily relate to our lack of lack of appropriate resources to handle the accounting for certain complex equity transactions and our lack of a sophisticated financial reporting system. The accounting department constituted of one Officer and one Controller.  Therefore, we have relied heavily on entity or management review controls to lessen the issue of segregation of duties.  Upon receiving adequate financing the Company plans to increase its controls in these areas by hiring more employees in financial reporting, and establishing an audit committee. These significant deficiencies together constitute a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  The design of any system of controls is also based in part on certain assumptions regarding the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Given these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions.

32

Although we have taken steps to remedy some of these issues with our internal control over financial reporting, including the hiring of a consultant to provide guidance regarding our complex equity and debt transactions, we still have additional work to do to bring our financial reporting procedures up to public-company standards. Because the Merger occurred in the second quarter of 2011 and because the Company was a small privately-held company, we were unable to upgrade our internal controls over financial reporting to the level required of a public company prior to the end of the period covered by this annual report. Nevertheless, we are initiating the remediation steps to rectify the identified significant deficiencies that together constitute a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Because these remediation steps have not yet been completed, we have performed additional analyses and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this annual report were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and applicable SEC regulations. Our planned remediation steps include determining the appropriate resources to handle complex transactions as they arise in the future, upgrading our financial reporting systems, and establishing an audit committee.
