FIRST CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2012
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – Description of Business
First Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 27, 1995. The Company's activities to date have been limited to organization and capital formation. The Company was originally "an exploration stage company" and had acquired a series of mining claims for exploration and formulated a business plan to investigate the possibilities of a viable mineral deposit. However, due to difficulty securing financing, the board of directors voted to discontinue operations of mineral claims, and pursue other investment opportunities. The company is a development stage entity, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 915.
To date, the Company has generated no sales revenues, have incurred significant expenses and have sustained losses. Consequently, the Company's operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception on December 27, 1995 (Date of Inception) through June 30, 2012, the Company has accumulated losses of $1,369,782.
NOTE 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(A) | Basis of Presentation |
The condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2011 has been derived from audited financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. However, the results from operations for the three and nine months periods ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2012. The unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the September 30, 2011 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
(B) | Going Concern |
As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company is in the development stage. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company has no sales and has incurred a net loss of $1,369,782 since inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going

NOTE 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan.
(C) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(D) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(E) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Fair Value Measurements under GAAP clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements are separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. It only applies to accounting pronouncements that already require or permit fair value measures, except for standards that relate to share-based payments.
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets): or model-derived calculations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

value because of their short-term maturity. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed, otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.
As of June 30, 2012, there were no financial assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
(F) | Per Share Data |
Basic and diluted net loss per common share for all periods presented is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding as defined by ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. The effect of stock options on diluted EPS is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase the Company's common stock at the average market price during the period. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, any common stock equivalents were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per share.
(G) | Provision for Income Taxes |
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of certain assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2012
(Unaudited)
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company had no significant deferred tax items arise during any of the periods presented.
(H) | Concentration of Credit Risk |
The Company maintains its temporary cash investments in high credit quality financial institutions. At times, such amounts may exceed federally insured limits.
NOTE 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(I) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. The objective of this pronouncement is to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. When effective, ASU 2011-05 will help financial statement users better understand the causes of an entity's change in financial position and results of operations. Management does not feel that the adoption of this update will have a substantial impact on the unaudited condensed financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The objective of this update is to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This update eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-6, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements, which requires reporting entities to make new disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. ASU 2010-6 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation disclosures which are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-6 did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management will have, a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
Corporate Background
First Corporation is a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 27, 1995. Our principal executive offices are located in England. Our original business was the exploration of mineral claims for commercially viable deposits of precious and base metals. However, on May 18, 2008, our board of directors voted unanimously to discontinue exploration of our mineral claims due to the difficulty in securing adequate financing. We have since pursued other opportunities.
Gecko Landmarks Ltd. Share Acquisition
Effective April 12, 2012, First Corporation entered into a Securities Subscription and Option Agreement with Gecko Landmarks Ltd. for the acquisition by First Corporation of an initial 10% stake in Gecko Landmarks.
By Written Consent, dated March 27, 2012, our sole director approved this agreement and referred the matter to a vote of our shareholders. Action was taken by the Written Consent of the Holders of a Majority of the Issued and Outstanding Common Stock of First Corporation approving the transaction. We notified First Corporation’s other shareholders of this action pursuant to Regulation 14C under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and on June 4, 2012, more than 21 days following first delivery of such notice, we closed on the purchase of the 10% equity interest.
Under the terms of the Securities Subscription and Option Agreement, First Corporation purchased its 10% equity interest in Gecko Landmarks for a purchase price of $1,000,000. Under the terms of the agreement, First Corporation also has an option to purchase an additional 23% interest in Gecko Landmarks for a price of $3,450,000, exercisable within six months from closing. The directors will have authority to approve the exercise of this option without stockholder approval. In connection with the closing, First Corporation also entered into a shareholders’ agreement with the other Gecko Landmarks shareholders which provides for the rights of the respective parties as shareholders of Gecko Landmarks.
Funding for the purchase price was provided by an investor who purchased from First Corporation 8% Promissory Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,000,000. See discussion under Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Prior to its discussions with Gecko Landmarks regarding the share acquisition, First Corporation had pursued other possible business acquisitions none of which were completed.
Consulting Agreement
On April 5, 2011, First Corporation entered into a consultancy arrangement with Thomas J. Wikstrom of Luxembourg pursuant to a letter agreement, a copy of which was attached as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 11, 2011. Neither party had commenced performance under the arrangement as of August 8, 2012 on which date First Corporation received a letter from Mr. Wikstrom confirming his acceptance to an updated and amended consultancy agreement, effective as of August 1, 2012 which is terminable by either party on six months’ notice. The agreement calls for Mr. Wikstrom to serve as First Corporation’s representative on Gecko Landmarks Ltd.’s board of directors to provide feedback and recommendations regarding further investment and development initiatives as required by First Corporation from time to time. For his services, Mr. Wikstrom is to receive an annual cash payment of US$50,000 and a number of shares to be determined at a future date. A copy of the letter from Mr. Wikstrom is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-Q.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the CEO and Principal Accounting and Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and Principal Accounting and Financial Officer has concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. During the quarter, we received a letter from our auditor in connection with its audit of our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2011, indicating a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to discuss this with our accounting professionals and work with them to develop appropriate controls.
