NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2013
(Unaudited)
 


NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
 
These interim financial statements as of and for the three months ended January 31, 2013 reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
 
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s fiscal year end October 31, 2012 report on Form 10-K. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the three month period ended January 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending October 31, 2013.
 
Diversified Resources Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 19, 2009 to pursue mineral extraction in the United States.
 
Current Operations
 
On May 22, 2009, the Company leased two mining claims in Esmerelda County, Nevada, in the Dunfee Mine Area.  The lease includes all additional claims within one mile of these claims.  The area was the subject of a geological report on September 11, 2009.  The lease required an initial payment of $5,000, plus $275 Federal and State maintenance fees.  Minimum annual payments are required, beginning with $5,000 at the 2nd  anniversary year, and escalating after the 3rd year. The Company is responsible for taxes and maintenance fees imposed on the claims.  The Company defaulted on the third anniversary year payment due in 2012.  The Company is negotiating with the lessor to change the terms of the lease.
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.
 
Property & Equipment
 
Capital assets are stated at cost. Depreciation of equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company did not have any property & equipment at January 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012.
 
 
 
 
6

 
 
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company accounts for long-lived assets under the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 340-10 Other Assets and Deferred Costs, (SFAS 142 and 144: “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”). In accordance with ASC 340-10, long-lived assets, goodwill and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset will not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long-lived assets. The Company did not have any long lived assets at January 31, 2013.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company utilizes FASB ACS 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.  The Company has available a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $83,000, which begins to expire in 2030 unless utilized beforehand. The Company generated a deferred tax credit through the net operating loss carry-forward.  However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established.
 
Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ASC accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued   ASC 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements.  FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:
 
 
-
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 that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
     
 
-
Level 3:  Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments as of January 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012 were valued according to the following inputs:
 
   
January 31, 2013
   
October 31, 2012
 
Level 3:   Mineral Lease payable
  $ 230,533     $ 215,780  

 
 
7

 

 
Cash and accounts payable are carried at amounts that approximate fair value due to the short maturity of such instruments.
 
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
 
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, for the period presented.  ASC 260 requires presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share.  Basic income (loss) per share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. A  Diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) is similarly calculated. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As at January 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no potentially dilutive securities.
 
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012:
 
   
2013
   
2012
 
Numerator:
           
Basic and diluted net loss per share:
  $ (18,842 )   $ (191 )
               Net (Loss)                
                 
Denominator:
               
Basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding
    5,250,005       5,250,000  
                 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share:
  $ (0.00 )   $ (0.00 )

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 605-13 and (Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104). Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured.  There were no sales in the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." The amendments in this update require enhanced disclosures around financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 31, 2013. The Company does not expect this guidance to have any impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies.  Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, the Company’s management has not determined whether implementation of such standards would be material to its financial statements.

NOTE 3 – UNCERTAINTY OF ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company has not generated any revenue and has incurred cumulative deficit of $309,991 through January 31, 2013.
 
Management has taken the following step to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company pursued funding through sale of stock.  Management believes that the above action will allow the Company to continue operations through the next fiscal year. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in its retail operation.
 
Recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations.  If the Company is unable to make it profitable, the Company could be forced to discontinue operations.
 
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY
 
The Company is considered an exploration stage company, with limited operating revenues during the periods presented.  The Company is required to report its operations, shareholders deficit and cash flows since inception through the date that revenues are generated from management’s intended operations, among other things.  Inception of the Company is March 19, 2009. Since inception, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $309,991.  The Company’s working capital has been generated through the sales of common stock.  Management has provided financial data since March 19, 2009, “Inception” in the financial statements, as a means to provide readers of the Company’s financial information to make informed investment decisions.
 
NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES
 
We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.  Under this standard, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when we cannot make the determination that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the related tax asset will be realized. Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ACS accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.
 
NOTE 6 – CAPITAL
 
The company issued the following common shares:
 
May 12, 2009:  3,000,000 shares issued for cash at $0.005 per share, or $15,000.
 
September 30, 2010:  2,250,000 shares issued for cash at $0.020  per share, or $45,000.
 
As of January 31, 2012, the Company had authorized 75,000,000 common shares of par value $0.001, of which 5,250,000 were issued and outstanding.

Item 2.       Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial condition and Results of Operations

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE RESULTS OF OUR OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.
 
Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks.
 
This report contains forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements are projections of events, revenues, income, future economic performance or management’s plans and objectives for future operations.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “predict”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Examples of forward-looking statements made in this report include statements about:
 
our plan of operations;
 
our future exploration programs and results;
 
our expectations regarding the impact of various accounting policies;
 
our future capital expenditures; and
 
our future investments in and acquisitions of mineral resource properties.

These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including:
 
risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of sampling results, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits;
 
risks and uncertainties that results of initial sampling and mapping will not be consistent with our expectations;
 
mining and development risks, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in production;
 
the potential for delays in exploration activities; risks related to the inherent uncertainty of cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses;
 
risks related to commodity price fluctuations;
 
the uncertainty of profitability based upon our limited history;
 
risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms for our planned exploration project;
 
risks related to environmental regulation and liability;
 
risks that the amounts reserved or allocated for environmental compliance, reclamation, post- closure control measures, monitoring and on-going maintenance may not be sufficient to cover such costs;
 
risks related to tax assessments; and
 
political and regulatory risks associated with mining development and exploration.
 
Any of these risks could cause our Company’s 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 the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report.
 
 
 
11

 
 
 
While these forward-looking statements and any assumptions upon which they are based are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.  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.
 
In this report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to “common shares” refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

Plan Of Operation

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties.  We currently hold a lease on twenty two (22) unpatented lode mineral claims that we refer to as the Dunfee Property.  Further exploration of these mineral claims is required before a final determination as to their viability can be made.  Although exploratory work on the claims conducted prior to our obtaining a lease on the property has indicated some potential showings of mineralization, we are uncertain as to the potential existence of a commercially viable mineral deposit existing in these claims.
 
Our plan of operations is to carry out exploration work on these claims in order to ascertain whether they possess commercially exploitable quantities of gold, silver, copper or any other valuable minerals.  We will not be able to determine whether or not our mineral claims contain a commercially exploitable mineral deposit, or reserve, until appropriate exploratory work is done and an economic evaluation based on that work concludes economic viability.  As of the date of this Report, the Company has not paid the minimum agreed royalty advance of $10,000 which was due on June 15, 2012.  Due to our lack of capital, we are unable to make this payment.
 
Additionally, we will be required to make a payment of $25,000 on or before June 15, 2013.  We currently do not have sufficient funds to make this lease payment.  It is our intention to renegotiate the terms of the mineral lease agreements with Timberwolf Minerals, LTD.  However, there is no guarantee that we will be successful at renegotiation and may be required to relinquish our rights in the mineral leases currently leased by us.

Results of Operations

We have generated no revenues since inception and have incurred $309,991  in operating expenses from inception through January 31, 2013.  These expenses were comprised of $24,145 in Professional Fees, $27,490 in Filing Fees, $191,792 in Mineral Lease Maintenance and $66,564 in general and administrative costs.  We incurred net loss of $18,842 for the three months ending January 31, 2013.  Our net loss since inception (March 19, 2009) through January 31, 2013 was $309,991.

Going Concern

Diversified Resources, Inc. is an exploration stage company and currently has no operations.  Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion for Diversified Resources which includes a statement raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Our cash balance at January 31, 2013 was $542 with $230,533 in outstanding (accrued) liabilities.  Total expenditures over the next 12 months are expected to be approximately $90,000.  Our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.  Accordingly, we may utilize funds from our directors, who have informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information called for by this Item.
 
Item 4.       Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s President, and principal financial officer (the “Certifying Officer”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the officer concluded that, as of the date of the evaluation, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
The Certifying Officer has also indicated that there were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s last fiscal quarter, and no significant changes in our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation and there were no corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
 
Our management, including the Certifying Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors and fraud. 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. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the control. The design of any systems of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about 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. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
