FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Introduction to Interim Financial Statements.

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by Consolidated Gems, Inc. (“Consolidated Gems” or the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (The “Commission”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2013, the results of its operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the cumulative period April 1, 2013 (inception of exploration activities) to June 30, 2013 and the changes in its cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the cumulative period April 1, 2013 (inception of exploration activities) to June 30, 2013, have been included.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

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

Foreign Currency Translation

Prior to April 1, 2013, the Company’s functional currency was the US dollar. However, as a result of Australian based activities in the current quarter relating to potential gem projects, the Company’s revenue and expenses will be primarily denominated in Australian dollars (A$). ASC 830 Foreign Currency Translation, states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from April 1, 2013 the functional currency of the Company is the Australian dollar. Assets, liabilities and equity were translated at the rate of exchange at April 1, 2013. Revenue and expenses were translated at rates at date of transaction. Translation gains and losses, if material, are included as part of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency.
 
UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, ALL FINANCIAL INFORMATION PRESENTED IS IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS.

CONSOLIDATED GEMS, INC.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2013
 
(1)
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
 
Consolidated Gems, Inc. ("Consolidated Gems” or the “Company"), formerly Electrum International, Inc. is a Delaware corporation originally incorporated in Florida as We Sell for U Corp. (“We Sell for U”). The principal stockholder of Consolidated Gems is Power Developments Pty Ltd., an Australian corporation (“Power”), an entity majority owned by the Company’s President, which owned 94.46% of Consolidated Gems as of June 30, 2013.
 
In order to take advantage of management’s substantial experience in the location and development of mineral exploration properties, the Company plans to look for opportunities in the resources industry and has identified silver and base metal exploration in Central America and gem opportunities in Australia for its potential business opportunities.
 
As a result of management’s decision to refocus its efforts from energy opportunities to explore opportunities in the resources industry, effective December 31, 2010, the Company ceased reporting as a development stage company.  Since April 1, 2013, the Company has been evaluating potential gem related projects and has been granted an exploration tenement in New South Wales, Australia.  Accordingly, from April 1, 2013 the Company has been classified as an exploration stage company.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of Consolidated Gems as a going concern. The Company has not yet commenced revenue producing operations and has incurred net losses since inception and may continue to incur substantial and increasing losses for the next several years, all of which raises substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that could arise as a result of this uncertainty.
 
In addition, Consolidated Gems is reliant on loans and advances from corporations affiliated with the Company. Based on discussions with these affiliate companies the Company believes this source of funding will continue to be available. Other than the arrangements noted above, the Company has not confirmed any other arrangement for ongoing funding. As a result the Company may be required to raise funds by additional debt or equity offerings in order to meet its cash flow requirements during the forthcoming year.
 
(2)
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)
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed in connection with the preparation of the financial statements.
 
Basis of Presentation and Used Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP  requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The functional and reporting currency is the Australian dollar.
 
Mineral Property Acquisition, Exploration Costs and Amortization of Mineral Rights
 
Mineral property acquisition, exploration and development costs are expensed as incurred until such time as economic reserves are quantified.  To date, the Company has not established any proven or probable  reserves on its mineral properties. When it is determined that a mining deposit can be economically and legally extracted or produced based on established proven and probable reserves, further exploration costs and development costs incurred after such determination will be capitalized. The establishment of proven and probable reserves is based on results of final feasibility studies which indicate whether a property is economically feasible. Upon commencement of commercial production, capitalized costs will be transferred to the appropriate asset category and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Capitalized costs, net of salvage values, relating to a deposit which is abandoned or considered uneconomic for the foreseeable future, will be written off. Mineral rights are amortized over their estimated useful lives being the Company’s estimated rights to tenure.
 
 
7

 
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
Effective April 1, 2013, the Company’s functional and reporting currency is the Australian dollar.  Revenue and expenses incurred in a currency other than, Australian dollars are translated at the date incurred or invoiced. Assets and liabilities are re-valued at the period end exchange rate where appropriate. Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations.
 
Prior to April 1, 2013, the Company’s functional currency was the US dollar. However, as a result of Australian based activities in the current quarter relating to potential gem projects, the Company’s revenue and expenses will be primarily denominated in Australian dollars (A$). ASC 830 Foreign Currency Translation, states that the functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Accordingly the Company determined that from April 1, 2013 the functional currency of the Company is the Australian dollar. Assets, liabilities and equity were translated at the rate of exchange at April 1, 2013. Revenue and expenses were translated at rates at date of transaction. Translation gains and losses, if material, are included as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The resulting translation at April 1, 2013 was not material.

Restatement of comparative numbers was made for the change in functional and reporting currency.
 
Goods and Services Tax (“GST”)
 
Revenues, expenses and assets generated in Australia are subject to Australian GST which requires the supplier to add a 10% GST to predominately all expenses and the cost of assets and for the Company to include a 10% GST to the selling price of a product. Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the assets or as part of the expense item as applicable, and receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority
 
Comparative Figures
 
Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified to be consistent with current year presentation with no effect on operations.
 
(4)
AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
 
In January 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with AXIS Consultants Pty Ltd (“AXIS”) to provide geological, management and administration services to the Company. AXIS is affiliated through common management. The Company is one of ten affiliated companies under common management with AXIS. Each of the companies has some common Directors, officers and shareholders. In addition, each of the companies is substantially dependent upon AXIS for its senior management and administration staff. It has been the intention of the affiliated companies and respective Boards of Directors that each of such arrangements or transactions should accommodate the respective interest of the relevant affiliated companies in a manner which is fair to all parties and equitable to the shareholders of each. Currently, there are no material arrangements or planned transactions between the Company and any of the other affiliated companies other than AXIS.
 
The payable to affiliate at June 30, 2013 of A$919,335 is due to AXIS. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, AXIS provided services in accordance with the services agreement, incurred direct costs on behalf of the Company and advanced funds ofA$617,869. The Company intends to repay the advances from affiliate with funds raised either via additional debt or equity offerings, but as this may not occur within the next 12 months AXIS has agreed not to call the advance within the next twelve months and accordingly the Company has classified the amounts payable as non-current in the accompanying balance sheet.
 
(5)
INCOME TAXES
 
Consolidated Gems files its income tax returns on an accrual basis.
 
The Company files tax returns in the United States. Consolidated Gems has carry-forward losses of approximately A$1,863,000 (US$1,703,000) as of December 31, 2012 which expire in years 2028 through 2032. Due to the uncertainty of the availability and future utilization of those operating loss carry-forwards, management has provided a full valuation against the related tax benefit. The Company’s tax returns for all years since December 31, 2009 remain open to examination by the respective tax authorities.  There are currently no tax examinations in progress.
 
The Company will be required to file tax return in Australia for 2013. Net operation losses carry-forwards in Australia do not have a definite expiration date and amounted to approximately A$560,000
 
(6)
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, prepayments, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and advances from affiliate. The carrying amounts of cash, prepayments, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short term nature of those instruments. The fair value of the advances from affiliate is not determinable as it is due to an affiliate entity, no market exists for similar instruments and settlement date is uncertain.

COMMITMENTS
 
Exploration
The Company has to perform minimum exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money on its tenements. The overall expenditure requirement tends to be limited in the normal course of the Company’s tenement portfolio management through expenditure exemption approvals, and expenditure reductions through relinquishment of parts or the whole of tenements deemed non prospective. Should the company wish to preserve interests in its current tenements the amount which may be required to be expended is as follows:

Not later than one year

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
The Company has evaluated events and transactions after the balance sheet date and through the date the financial statements were issued, and believes that all relevant disclosures have been included herein and there are no other events which require recognition or disclosure in the accompanying interim financial statements.

 Overview
 
Consolidated Gems, Inc. (“Consolidated Gems” or the “Company”), formerly Electrum International, Inc. is a Delaware corporation originally incorporated in Florida as We Sell For U Corp. (“We Sell For U”). Consolidated Gems was originally established with the intention to develop and provide service offerings to facilitate auctions on eBay for individuals and companies who lack the eBay expertise and/or time to list/sell and ship items they wish to sell. In December 2008, Power Developments Pty Ltd, an Australian corporation ("Power") acquired approximately a 96% interest in Consolidated Gems from Edward T. Farmer and certain other stockholders. Mr. Farmer resigned as Sole Director and Officer of Consolidated Gems, Joseph Gutnick was appointed President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director and Peter Lee was appointed Chief Financial Officer and Secretary.
 
On August 12, 2009, the Company re-incorporated in the state of Delaware (the “Reincorporation”) through a merger involving We Sell for U Corp. and Consolidated Gems, a Delaware Corporation that was a wholly owned subsidiary of We Sell for U. The Reincorporation was effected by merging We Sell for U with Consolidated Gems, with Consolidated Gems being the surviving entity. For purposes of the Company’s reporting status with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Consolidated Gems is deemed a successor to We Sell for U.
 
The Company has decided to expand its focus to include precious gems in order to generate value for shareholders and is currently assessing several gem opportunities. On September 24, 2012, the Company changed its name from Electrum International, Inc. to Consolidated Gems, Inc.
 
We have incurred net losses since our inception and may continue to incur substantial and increasing losses for the next several years. Since inception we have incurred accumulated losses of $2,497,634 which was funded primarily by the sale of equity securities and loans from affiliates.

The following is a description of the Company’s current business plans and activities.
 
In order to take advantage of management’s substantial experience in the location and development of mineral exploration properties, the Company plans to look for opportunities in the resources industry and has identified silver and base metal exploration in Central America and gem opportunities in Australia for its potential business opportunities.
 
As a result of management’s decision to refocus its efforts from energy opportunities to explore opportunities in the resources industry, effective December 31, 2010, the Company ceased reporting as a development stage company. Since April 1, 2013, the Company has been evaluating potential gem related projects and has been granted an exploration tenement in New South Wales, Australia.  Accordingly, from April 1, 2013 the Company has been classified as an exploration stage company.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of Consolidated Gems as a going concern. The Company has not yet commenced revenue producing operations and has incurred net losses since inception and may continue to incur substantial and increasing losses for the next several years, all of which raises substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that could arise as a result of this uncertainty.
 
In addition, Consolidated Gems is reliant on loans and advances from corporations affiliated with the Company. Based on discussions with these affiliate companies, the Company believes this source of funding will continue to be available. Other than the arrangements noted above, the Company has not confirmed any other arrangement for ongoing funding. As a result the Company may be required to raise funds by additional debt or equity offerings in order to meet its cash flow requirements during the forthcoming year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2012.
 
Costs and expenses increased from A$34,810 in the three months ended June 30, 2012 to A$573,666 in the three months ended June 30, 2013.
 
The increase in costs and expenses is a net result of:
 
 
a)
an increase in legal, accounting and professional expense from A$7,022 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to A$13,830 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Included within legal, accounting and professional expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is A$5,008 (2012: A$1,907) for costs associated with the Company’s SEC compliance obligations; A$1,393 (2012: A$2,304) which relates to stock agent transfer fees; and accounting fees  for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is A$7,429 (2012: A$2,811).
 
 
b)
a decrease in administrative expense from A$27,788 in the three months ended June 30, 2012 to A$15,447 in the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of a decrease in the cost of travel and accommodation expenditure and expenditure relating to the conversion of financial statements to XBRL.
 
 
c)
an increase in exploration expenditure expense from nil for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to A$544,389 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The primary reason for the increase is due to the commencement of exploration activities and there are no comparable figures for the three months ended June 30, 2012.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations increased from A$34,810 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to a loss from operations of A$573,666 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.
 
A foreign currency exchange gain of A$3,675 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a foreign currency exchange loss of A$8,561 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was recorded as a result of the movement in the US dollar versus the Australian dollar, and the impact of the subsequent revaluation of amounts payable to creditors.
 
The net loss was A$582,227 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of A$31,135 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 2012.
 
Costs and expenses increased from A$65,828 in the six months ended June 30, 2012 to A$597,836 in the six months ended June 30, 2013.
 
The increase in costs and expenses is a net result of:
 
 
a)
a increase in legal, accounting and professional expense from A$15,903 for the six months ended June 30, 2012  to A$24,065 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Included within legal, accounting and professional expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is A$7,782 (2012: A$3,968) for costs associated with the Company’s SEC compliance; accounting fee costs for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is A$14,627 (2012: A$9,440); and A$1,656 (2012: A$2,495) which relates to stock agent transfer fees.
 
 
b)
A decrease in administrative expense from A$49,925 in the six months ended June 30, 2012 to A$29,382 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, as a result of a decrease in the cost of travel and accommodation, expenditure relating to the conversion of financial statements to XBRL and decreases in the cost of services provided by AXIS in accordance with the service agreement
 
 
c)
an increase in exploration expenditure expense from nil for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to A$544,389 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The primary reason for the increase is due to the commencement of exploration activities and there are no comparable figures for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations increased from A$65,828 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to a loss from operations of A$597,836 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
 
A foreign currency exchange gain of A$1,555 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a foreign currency exchange loss of A$8,561 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was recorded as a result of the movement in the US dollar versus the Australian dollar, and the impact of the subsequent revaluation of amounts payable to creditors.
 
The net loss was A$606,397 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of A$64,273 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net cash used in operating activities was A$664,173 consisting of the net loss of A$606,397 offset by a non-cash charge for foreign currency exchange loss of A$8,561, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of A$8,823, a decrease in prepayments of A$7,925 and an increase in receivables of A$65,439. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net cash provided by financing activities was A$672,562 consisting of an increase in payable to affiliate.
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Company had short-term obligations of A$53,657 comprising accounts payable and accrued expenses and had long-term obligations of A$919,335 comprising advances payable to an affiliate.
 
Our budget for general and administration and for professional expenses for fiscal 2013 is A$0.25 million and A$0.12 million for exploration expenses.  We are currently investigating capital raising opportunities which may be in the form of either equity or debt, to provide funding for working capital purposes. There can be no assurance that such a capital raising will be successful, or that even if an offer of financing is received by the Company, it is on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company has to perform minimum exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money on its tenements. The overall expenditure requirement tends to be limited in the normal course of the Company’s tenement portfolio management through expenditure exemption approvals, and expenditure reductions through relinquishment of parts or the whole of tenements deemed non prospective. Should the company wish to preserve interests in its current tenements the amount which may be required to be expended not later than one year is A$61,000 and later than one year but not later than five years is A$61,000.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of Consolidated Gems as a going concern. However, Consolidated Gems, Inc. has limited assets, has not yet commenced revenue producing operations and has sustained recurring losses since inception.
 
Information Concerning Forward Looking Statements
 
This report and other reports, as well as other written and oral statements made or released by us, may contain forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are statements that describe, or that are based on, our current expectations, estimates, projections and beliefs. Forward looking statements are based on assumptions made by us, and on information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements describe our expectations today of what we believe is most likely to occur or may be reasonably achievable in the future, but such statements do not predict or assure any future occurrence and may turn out to be wrong. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. The words "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "estimate," "project", "predict", "hope", "should", "may", and "will", other words and expressions that have similar meanings, and variations of such words and expressions, among others, usually are intended to help identify forward-looking statements.
 
Forward-looking statements are subject to both known and unknown risks and uncertainties and can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make.  Risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those currently anticipated. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed.  The potential risks and uncertainties that could affect forward looking statements include, but are not limited to:
 
 
The risk factors set forth in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012,
 
 
The possibility that we do not find gems or other minerals or that the gems or other minerals we find are not commercially economical to mine,
 
 
The risks and hazards inherent in the mineral exploration and development business (including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, weather or geologically related conditions),
 
 
Changes in the market price of minerals or gems,
 
 
The effects of environmental and other governmental regulations,
 
 
The uncertainties inherent in our exploratory activities, including risks relating to permitting and regulatory delays,
 
 
Estimates of proven and probable reserves are subject to considerable uncertainty,
 
 
Movements in foreign exchange rates,
 
 
Increased competition, governmental regulation,
 
 
Performance of information systems,
 
 
Ability of the Company to hire, train and retain qualified employees,
 
In addition, other risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and factors that could affect the Company's results and prospects are described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, including under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere herein and therein and may further be described in the Company's prior and future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other written and oral statements made or released by the Company.

We caution you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document.  The information contained in this report is current only as of its date, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
 
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
At June 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding loan facilities.
 
Controls and Procedures.
 
(a)
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, such principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report at the reasonable level of assurance.
 
(b)
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
 
(c)
Other
 
We believe that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.  Therefore, 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.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving our desired control objectives, and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, as of June 30, 2013, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in achieving that level of reasonable assurance.
