AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL VENTURES, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

February 29, 2012

(Unaudited)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited interim financial statements of American International Ventures, Inc. (“the Company”) as of February 29, 2012 and for the three and nine month periods ended February 28, 2011 and February 29, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of such periods. The results of operations for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending May 31, 2012.

 

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended May 31, 2011.

 

2. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOWS INFORMATION

 

There were no cash payments during the periods presented for either interest or income taxes. Except for the transactions described in the following sentence, there were no non cash investing or financing activities during either of the periods presented.


3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

a.       Cash

 

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

b.      Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash equivalents, and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values at February 29, 2012.

 

 

c.   Loss (Income) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of shares outstanding. During periods when a net loss has occurred, as was the case in the nine month periods ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, outstanding options and warrants are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

February 29, 2012

(Unaudited)

 

 

3.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

 

d.   Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with current accounting guidance, which requires the use of the “liability method”.  Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Current income taxes are based on the income that is currently taxable.

 

e.   Marketable Securities

 

Marketable securities, when owned, are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recognized as direct increases or decreases in accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

f.  Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed by using accelerated methods, with useful lives of seven years for furniture and equipment and five years for computers and automobiles.

 

g.   Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

h.   Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses advertising costs when the advertisement occurs. There was no advertising expense in either nine month periods ended February 29, 2012 or February 28, 2011.  

 

i.    Segment Reporting

 

The Company is organized in one reporting and accountable segment.

 


4. LETTER OF INTENT RE: ACQUISITION


On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into an enforceable letter of intent with Placer Gold Prospecting Company, a privately held Florida corporation with gold and silver operations and development projects in California, Nevada and New Mexico.


Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company and Placer would commence the negotiation and preparation of a share exchange agreement whereby The Company will acquire all the outstanding shares of Placer (approximately 137,400,000 shares of common stock) for a like amount of shares of common stock of the Company (the “Transaction”). After the Transaction, the present shareholders of Placer, would own approximately 87.7% of the Company, and the Company will own 100% of Placer.  Under the agreement, no cash will be exchanged.

The transaction took place on April 3, 2012 at which time shares were exchanged.  The details of the transaction and a description of the combined entity resulting from the transaction will be disclosed in an 8-K yet to be released.

Forward Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements .

  

Certain of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes "forward looking statements." All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-Q regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations and capital expenditures, and other matters, are forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon management's expectations of future events. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be correct. Additional statements concerning important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations ("Cautionary Statements") are disclosed in the Cautionary Statements section and elsewhere in the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended May 31, 2011. Readers are urged to refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Statements” and elsewhere in the Company’s Form 10-K for a broader discussion of these statements, risks, and uncertainties. These risks include the Company’s limited operations and lack of revenues. In addition, the Company’s auditor, in his audit report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, has expressed a “going concern” opinion about the future viability of the Company. All written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on the Company’s behalf subsequent to the date of this Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by the referenced Cautionary Statements.


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 


During the nine month ended February 29, 2012 and the comparable period ended February 28, 2011, the Company had no business operations other than to seek other business opportunities, and during such periods had no revenues from operations.

  

Administrative expenses for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and 2011 were $18,978 and $18,922, respectively. Administrative expenses consist of professional fees and the cost of services compensated with equity items.

  

The Company’s plan of operations is to seek other business opportunities to review and to analyze them for purposes of effecting a business acquisition or combination. The Company is seeking such business opportunities through its officers, directors and business contacts.   The Company completed a transaction with Placer Gold Prospecting, Inc. on April 3, 2012.

  

As of February 29, 2012, the Company had working capital of $34,420, compared with working capital of $50,500 as of May 31, 2011. The decrease in working capital is due to losses during the nine month period ended February 29, 2012.


The Company has projected that its administrative overhead for the next 12 months will be approximately $44,000 which consists of accounting fees (including tax, audit and review) in the approximate amount of $15,000, legal fees in the approximate amount of $24,000, and miscellaneous expenses of $5,000. The projected legal and accounting fees relate to the Company’s reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company expects to incur addition legal and accounting fees in order to effect acquisition and share exchange or a business combination transaction. The Company has no other capital commitments. To continue its business plan, the Company will be required to raise additional funds through the private placement of its capital stock or through debt financing to meet its ongoing corporate overhead obligations. If the Company is unable to meet its corporate overhead obligations, it will have a material adverse impact on the Company and the Company may not be able to complete its plan of operations of finding a suitable business acquisition or combination candidate.

  

Please refer to the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ending May 31, 2011 for a discussion of other risks attendant to its proposed plan of operations of effecting a business acquisition or combination, including the occurrence of significant dilution and a change of control. Even if successful in effecting a business acquisition or combination, it is likely that numerous risks will exist with respect to the new entity and its business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures


Significant Accounting Policies


a.       Cash

 

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

b.      Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash equivalents, and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values at February 29, 2012.

 

 

c.   Loss (Income) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of shares outstanding. During periods when a net loss has occurred, as was the case in the nine month periods ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, outstanding options and warrants are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.


d.   Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with current accounting guidance, which requires the use of the “liability method”.  Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Current income taxes are based on the income that is currently taxable.

 

e.   Marketable Securities

 

Marketable securities, when owned, are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recognized as direct increases or decreases in accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

f.  Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed by using accelerated methods, with useful lives of seven years for furniture and equipment and five years for computers and automobiles.

 

g.   Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

h.   Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses advertising costs when the advertisement occurs. There was no advertising expense in either nine month periods ended February 29, 2012 or February 28, 2011.

i.    Segment Reporting

Recent Events


On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into an enforceable letter of intent with Placer Gold Prospecting Company, a privately held Florida corporation with gold and silver operations and development projects in California, Nevada, New Mexico, and politically stable jurisdictions in Baja California.


Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company and Placer would commence the negotiation and preparation of a share exchange agreement whereby The Company will acquire all the outstanding shares of Placer (approximately 137,400,000 shares of common stock) for a like amount of shares of common stock of the Company (the “Transaction”). After the Transaction, the present shareholders of Placer, would own approximately 87.7% of the Company, and the Company will own 100% of Placer Under the agreement, no cash will be exchanged.


The closing of the acquisition took place on April 3, 2012 at which time shares were exchanged. The details of the acquisition and a description of the combined entity resulting from the acquisition including pro forma financial statements of the combined entity and audited financial statements of Placer Gold Prospecting Company will be the subject of a Current Report on Form 8-K, as amended, to be filed by the Company as soon as reasonably available.




Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

  

Not Applicable. Smaller Reporting Companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.

  

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

  

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (one and the same person), we undertook an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure (a) that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (b) that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

  

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the quarter ended February 29, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
