GLOBAL STEVIA CORP. (formerly Guru Health Inc.) (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in US dollars) (unaudited) 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF BUSINESS Global Stevia Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 3, 2010. The Company is a development stage company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 915, DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTITIES. The Company has incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Sharelink International Inc ("Sharelink"), a British Virgin Islands company. GOING CONCERN These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of November 30, 2012, the Company has not recognized any revenue, and has an accumulated deficit of $369,929. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from the Company's future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. 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 the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company's fiscal year end is May 31. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sharelink. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, and Sharelink had no operations to date other than incorporation fees. b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. c) Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, EARNINGS PER SHARE. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. As of November 30, 2012, the Company had 2,900,000 (May 31, 2012 - 1,250,000) potentially dilutive common shares for the issuance of convertible debentures. 7
GLOBAL STEVIA CORP. (formerly Guru Health Inc.) (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in US dollars) (unaudited) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) d) Reclassification Certain balances in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. e) Interim Financial Statements These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended May 31, 2012. The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at November 30, 2012, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the six month period ended November 30, 2012. The results of operations for the periods ended November 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year. f) Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. g) Financial Instruments Pursuant to ASC 820, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value: LEVEL 1 Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. LEVEL 2 Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. LEVEL 3 Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company's financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible debentures, and amount due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of our cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations. 8

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) h) Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. 3.

COMMON STOCK a) On June 18, 2012, the Company and its Board of Directors authorized a 13-to-1 forward split of its common shares. The effects of the forward stock split increased the Company's authorized capital from 75,000,000 to 975,000,000 shares of common stock and the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 4,600,000 to 59,800,000 common shares, with a par value of $0.001 per share. The effects of the forward stock split have been retrospectively applied throughout these financial statements as if it had occurred at the beginning of the first period presented. b) On June 20, 2012, the Company issued 300,000 split-adjusted shares of the Company's common stock for proceeds of $30,000. c) On August 28, 2012, the Company and its Board of Directors authorized a 5-to-1 forward stock split of its common shares. The effect of the forward stock split increased the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 59,800,000 to 299,300,000 common shares, with a par value of $0.001 per share. The effects of the forward stock split have been retrospectively applied throughout these financial statements as if it had occurred at the beginning of the first period presented. 7. COMMITMENTS a) On August 1, 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a non-related party, whereby the Company will pay a management fee of $8,000 per month during the term of the consulting agreement for a twelve month period.

GLOBAL STEVIA CORP. (formerly Guru Health Inc.) (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in US dollars) (unaudited) 7. COMMITMENTS b) On July 12, 2012, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with Stevia Global Trading Joint Stock Company ("Stevia Global Vietnam") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 95% of the issued and outstanding capital in Stevia Global Vietnam in consideration for $300,000 to be paid in six equal installments of $50,000 each between the signing of the agreement and June 15, 2013 as follows: Cash consideration to be paid: * $50,000 on or before July 12, 2012 (paid); * a further $50,000 to be paid on or before September 15, 2012 (unpaid); * a further $50,000 to be paid on or before November 15, 2012 (unpaid); * a further $50,000 to be paid on or before February 15, 2013; * a further $50,000 to be paid on or before April 15, 2013; and * a further $50,000 to be paid on or before June 15, 2013. The acquisition of Stevia Global Vietnam will be finalized once the final acquisition payment has been made. In addition to the acquisition agreement, the Company entered into a services agreement with Stevia Global Vietnam whereby the Company agrees to purchase all stevia products produced by Stevia Global Vietnam for a period of one year from the date of the agreement. Upon the closing of the stock purchase agreement the Company will own 95% of Stevia Global Vietnam. The $300,000 purchase price is being paid for by the Company and is solely for 95% of the stock of Stevia Global Vietnam. The $300,000 purchase price will be invested by Stevia Global Vietnam into development of a large scale stevia plantation. None of the $300,000 is for the purchase of product for the first year. The investment is recorded at cost due to the fact the acquisition has not been finalized and the Company does not yet control Stevia Global Vietnam. After acquisition, Stevia Global Vietnam will become a subsidiary of the Company. Stevia Global Vietnam, a company controlled by the President and Director of the Company, is now a related party to the Company. 8.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results. Our unaudited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report. In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to "US$" refer to United States dollars and all references to "common stock" refer to the common shares in our capital stock. As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we", "us", "our" and "our company" mean Global Stevia Corp., and our wholly owned subsidiary, Sharelink International Ltd., a British Virgin Islands company, unless otherwise indicated. CORPORATE OVERVIEW We were incorporated under the name Guru Health Inc. in the State of Nevada on February 3, 2010. We are a development-stage company and we have no revenues and minimal assets. As a result we have incurred losses since inception. On June 14, 2012, we changed our name from Guru Health Inc., to Global Stevia Corp., and gave effect to a forward split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a 13 new for 1 old basis, consequently, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 975,000,000 and our issued and outstanding increased from 4,600,000 to 59,800,000 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001. We were incorporated with the intent to commence operations in the business of online health and sport supplement marketing, sales and distribution to the Canadian market with possible expansion into international markets in the future. We were not able to secure financing for this business plan and have consequently experienced a change of control and a change of business focus. On May 31, 2012, Matthew Christopherson, our former director and officer, acquired a total of 169,000,000 split-adjusted shares of our common stock from Vanessa Gillis and Jessica Bradshaw, our former directors and officers, in a private transaction for an aggregate total of $30,000. On July 10, 2012, we entered into two separate agreements with Stevia Global Trading Joint Stock Company ("Stevia Global Vietnam") for the acquisition of 95% of Stevia Global Vietnam and the purchase of all stevia leaf product grown by Stevia Global Vietnam for a period of one year. 12
Effective September 11, 2012, we effected a forward split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a 1 old for 5 new basis such that, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock increased from 59,860,000 to 299,300,000 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001. We maintain our business offices at Office No. 68, Truong Chinh St., Hanoi, Vietnam, and our telephone number is (84) 966015062. Our ticker symbol is "GSTV". Our CUSIP number is 397989 208. OUR CURRENT BUSINESS We are a development-stage company and we have no revenues and minimal assets. On July 10, 2012, we entered into two separate agreements with Stevia Global Vietnam for the acquisition of 95% of Stevia Global Vietnam and the purchase of all stevia leaf product grown by Stevia Global Vietnam for a period of one year. We chose Vietnam as our base because we believe it has the optimal growing environment, in terms of climate and politics, for the propagation of stevia. With an estimated 91.5 million inhabitants as of 2012, it is the world's 13th-most-populous country, and the eighth-most-populous Asian country. Temperatures vary less in the southern plains around Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta, ranging between 21 and 28 (degree)C (69.8 and 82.4 (degree)F) over the course of a year, (optimal growing conditions for stevia), with very fertile soil for most agriculture. Our focus is on implementing quality agribusiness solutions to our partners, contract growers and customers to maximize the efficient production of stevia leaf. Our management team has extensive expertise in farm management and growing in Asia, and extensive experience in international business management. Plans are to expand operations by investing in the development of larger test plantations and the acquisition of large parcels of land to have a commercially grown, fully mechanized stevia plantation. Concurrently, we plan to build out propagation labs to propagate and develop stevia varieties and cuttings. Our mission is to become a supplier of the highest quality stevia leaf and growing solutions. Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana A) is a crop of the family asteraceae. Fresh stevia leaves are approximately 15 times sweeter than raw cane sugar. In order for the stevia leaves to be used as a sweetener in baking or cooking, it is necessary to dry the leaves. This process removes the moisture and concentrates sweetness in the leaves. This process also acts as a preservative so the leaves can be used in the future. Once the leaves have been dried, they are crushed and this increases the sweetness from 15 times sweeter than sugar to 30 - 40 times. Dried stevia leaves can be used to brew tea or as an added sweetener in drinks or cooking. Stevia leaves are an excellent dietary supplement as they contain proteins, iron, calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, vitamin A and vitamin C. Stevia leaves can be purchased whole, crushed, in tea bags or as a fine green powder. Stevia extracts are used to sweeten food and beverages globally. With no known side effects, stevia extracts have become a major addition to the sweetener and natural food market. In order to extract stevia, the leaves are harvested during a cold period so that more sweetening compound is accumulated in the leaves. The harvested stevia leaves are then sun-dried and left in conditions with good air circulation. The dried leaves are then crushed and put through a clarification and crystallization process where the sweetening elements `glycosides' are extracted. A second important component is also extracted at this point, Rebaudioside A ("Reb-A") which is the sweetest element of the plant, 400 times sweeter than sugar. In 2008 steviol glycosides were recognized as safe for use as a sweetener in foods and beverages in the United States, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and other countries. At the same time, Reb-A was granted Generally Recognized as Safe ("GRAS") status by the US Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). 13
Our intended business model is to acquire and distribute all available stevia leaf from Stevia Global Vietnam during the first year and take over primary production upon the closing of the share purchase agreement pursuant to which we will own 95% of Stevia Global Vietnam by June 15, 2013. The cost of the acquisition, or the $300,000 we are paying to acquire Stevia Global Vietnam, will be invested by Stevia Global Vietnam into development of a large scale stevia plantation. Currently, Stevia Global Vietnam has no production capabilities or farm land. Stevia Global Vietnam has 2-3 acclimatized quality stevia varieties that are currently being tested in several smaller plots of land. The capital we have agreed to invest will build out propagation labs, and enable cultivation on larger parcels of land. Stevia Global Vietnam has received government approval to import stevia to manufacture and sell stevia products in Vietnam. On September 7, 2012, we issued a convertible debenture in the amount of $35,000 to one investor. The convertible debenture carries an interest rate of 10% per annum, is due on September 7, 2014 and is convertible at the investor's discretion into shares of our common stock at $0.10 per share. On October 12, 2012 we issued a convertible debenture in the amount of $30,000. The convertible debenture is unsecured, bears interest at 10% per annum, is due on October 12, 2014 and is convertible at the holder's discretion into shares of our company's common stock at $0.10 per share. Effective November 27, 2012, we entered into a research agreement with Plant Resource Center, a Vietnamese governmental agency that specializes in the research and development of agriculture techniques of planting. Pursuant to the terms of the research agreement, Plant Center shall complete all research and development activities by December 12, 2013 and deliver a completed report, intellectual property and plant seedling to our company by December 25, 2013. The research agreement may be extended for an additional period of one year. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities. THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2012 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2011. Difference Between Three Month Period Ended Three Months Three Months November 30, 2012 Ended Ended and November 30, November 30, November 30, 2012 2011 2011 -------- -------- -------- ($) ($) ($) Revenue Nil Nil Nil Cost of Goods Sold Nil Nil Nil Total Operating Expenses 86,319 14,635 71,684 Net Loss (99,776) (14,635) (85,571) REVENUES AND COST OF GOODS SOLD We have not earned any revenues nor have we incurred cost of goods sold since inception. We do not expect to earn revenue during the upcoming year. 14
OPERATING EXPENSES The increase in operating expenses of $71,684 was attributed to an increase of $27,168 for general and administrative costs as our company incurred more operating transactions during the current period as compared to prior year from additional consulting costs and out-of-pocket costs incurred with our company's proposed acquisition of Stevia Global Vietnam, an increase of $16,000 for management fees payable at $8,000 per month to the former President and Director of our company for the months of September and October, and $28,186 for professional fees for legal, accounting, and audit fees relating to the Company's SEC filings. Our net loss during the three months ended November 30, 2012 was $99,776 or $nil loss per share compared to $14,635 or $nil loss per share for the three months ended November 30, 2011. In addition to operating expenses in the current year, our company also incurred $13,457 of interest and accretion expense related to the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debenture. Our company did not have any interest or accretion expense in the comparative period as our company did not have any outstanding debentures or convertible instruments. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES WORKING CAPITAL At At November 30, May 31, 2012 2012 ---------- ---------- Current Assets $ 1,510 $ 119,874 Current Liabilities $ 39,631 $ 13,613 Working Capital Surplus (Deficit) $ (38,121) $ 106,261 CASH FLOWS Six Months Six Months February 3, 2010 Ended Ended (Inception) to November 30, November 30, November 30, 2012 2011 2012 ---------- ---------- ---------- Net Cash Used in Operating Activities $ (215,906) $ (22,589) $ (321,973) Net Cash Used In Investing Activities $ (53,968) $ Nil $ (53,968) Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities $ 195,000 $ 32,800 $ 375,941 Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash and Cash Equivalents $ (74,874) $ 10,211 $ Nil As at November 30, 2012, our company had current assets of $1,510 comprised of prepaid expenses. Our company had total current liabilities of $39,631 comprised of $39,533 of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $98 owed to related parties for payment of expenditures on our company's behalf. Our Company had a working capital deficit of $38,121 compared with a working capital surplus of $106,261 at May 31, 2012. The decrease in working capital was attributed to the use of cash from the convertible debenture and sale of common stock to pay the installment payment for Global Stevia Vietnam and for the increased operating costs and direction of our company with the new management. On June 18, 2012, our company approved a 13-to-1 forward stock split of its authorized share capital and issued and outstanding share capital. The effect of the forward stock split increased the number of authorized common shares from 75,000,000 common shares to 975,000,000 common shares and increased the number of issued and outstanding common shares from 4,600,000 common shares to 59,800,000 common shares. Subsequent to the forward stock split, our company issued 300,000 split-adjusted common shares for proceeds of $30,000. On August 28, 2012, our company approved a 5-to-1 forward stock split of its issued and outstanding common shares. The effect of the forward stock split increased the number of issued and outstanding common shares from 59,860,000 common shares to 299,300,000 common shares. 15
CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES During the six months ended November 30, 2012, our company used cash of $215,906 for operating activities compared with $22,589 during the six months ended November 30, 2011. The increase in the cash used for operating activities was attributed to the fact that our company received $195,000 in financing during the period which allowed our company to repay outstanding obligations and incur more day-to-day operating costs as our company changed management and incorporated new strategic objectives for our company. CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES During the six months ended November 30, 2012, our company used $53,968 of cash for investing activities compared to $nil for the six months ended November 30, 2011. Our company spent $50,000 for its first installment of the potential acquisition of Global Stevia Vietnam and $3,968 for the acquisition of computer hardware to be used in our company's operations. CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES During the six months ended November 30, 2012, our company received $195,000 of cash from financing activities comprised of $165,000 for the issuance of convertible debentures which are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum, and due in 2014, two years from the dates of issuance, which are convertible at $0.10 per common share. Furthermore, our company received $30,000 for the issuance of 60,000 (300,000 split-adjusted) common shares. During the six months ended November 30, 2011, our company received $20,000 from the issuance of common shares and $12,800 of proceeds from a related party. PLAN OF OPERATIONS CASH REQUIREMENTS We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business. We estimate that our expenses over the next 12 months will be approximately $926,000 as described in the table below. These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our future business activities and our ability to raise capital from shareholders or other sources. Estimated Estimated Description Completion Date Expenses ----------- --------------- -------- Legal and accounting fees 12 months $ 80,000 Research and development 12 months 200,000 Management and consulting costs 12 months 250,000 Payments for acquisition of Stevia Global Vietnam 12 months 300,000 General and administrative expenses 12 months 96,000 -------- TOTAL $926,000 ======== We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) acquisition of land; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) development of our cultivation and propagation facilities. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating 16
requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. We have and will continue to seek to obtain short-term loans from our directors, although no future arrangement for additional loans has been made. We do not have any agreements with our directors concerning these loans. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing. PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders. GOING CONCERN The independent auditors' report accompanying our May 31, 2012 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION The financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") and are expressed in U.S. dollars. Our company's fiscal year end is May 31. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sharelink. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, and Sharelink had no operations to date other than incorporation fees. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 17
expenses during the reporting period. Our company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Our company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our company may differ materially and adversely from our company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE Our company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, EARNINGS PER SHARE. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. As of November 30, 2012, our company had 2,900,000 (May 31, 2012 - 1,250,000) potentially dilutive common shares for the issuance of convertible debentures. RECLASSIFICATION Certain balances in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended May 31, 2012. The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our company's financial position at November 30, 2012, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the six month period ended November 30, 2012. The results of operations for the periods ended November 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Our company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Pursuant to ASC 820, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value: 18
LEVEL 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. LEVEL 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. LEVEL 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Our company's financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible debentures, and amount due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of our cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Our company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and our company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK As a "smaller reporting company", we are not required to provide the information required by this Item. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of quarter covered by this report. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures the president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to adjusting entries required to be made to our accounting records. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS During the quarter covered by this report there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 19
