ARTISANAL BRANDS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2012

(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Artisanal Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included. 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. Operating results for the six months ended November 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2012. Per share data for the periods are based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such period.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include investments in money market funds and are stated at cost, which approximates market value. Cash at times may exceed FDIC insurable limits.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Other Receivables, Net

The Company's accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers for the sale of its products. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management's estimate of collectability of such trade and notes receivables outstanding. The allowance for doubtful accounts represents an amount considered by management to be adequate to cover potential losses, if any. The recorded allowance at November 30, 2012 and May 31, 2012, was $20,000.

F - 4

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues associated with the sale of its products at the time of delivery to customers, when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Marketing and Advertising Costs

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses charged to operations for the six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011 were $34,736 and $97,973, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s amounts presented to conform to the current period presentations. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income or losses.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets at November 30, 2012 relates to the assets acquired by the Company in August 2007.

The Company reviews long-lived assets, certain identifiable assets and any impairment related to those assets at least annually or whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

Equity-based Compensation

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB, Share-Based Payment. The Company records compensation expense using a fair-value-based measurement method for all awards granted. In computing the impact, the fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant based on the Black-Scholes options-pricing model utilizing certain assumptions for a risk free interest rate; volatility; and expected remaining lives of the awards. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, the Company’s equity-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. In estimating the Company’s forfeiture rate, the Company analyzed its historical forfeiture rate, the remaining lives of unvested options, and the amount of vested options as a percentage of total options outstanding. If the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, or if the Company reevaluates the forfeiture rate in the future, the equity-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what we have recorded in the current period. Equity-based compensation for the six months ended November 30, 2012 and November 30, 2011 was $166,452 and $1,039,883, respectively. Of the equity-based compensation booked during the six months ended November 30, 2011, $976,628 is attributable to the vesting of 4,440,000 common stock options that had been granted to KeHE Distributors in connection with the marketing and distribution agreement entered in February 2011 and amended in May 2011.

F - 5

Net Loss Per Share

In accordance with the FASB guidance for, "Earnings Per Share", basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. For the six months ended November 30, 2012, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share since the inclusion of the 5,430,000 outstanding stock options would be antidilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximated fair value as of November 30, 2012, because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments and their market interest rates. Since a portion of long-term debt is in default, it is not possible to estimate its value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Any new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective have been deemed not to be relevant to the operations of the Company, hence the effects of such undisclosed new accounting pronouncements will have no effect on the Company.

The loan bears interest of 6% per annum and matures on October 14, 2014. The lenders each received one share of the Company's common stock for each dollar they loaned, respectively. Accordingly, the Company issued 1,700,000 shares of its common stock valued at $136,000 which was accounted for as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the note. The proceeds are being used to pay down tax liabilities and for operating capital.

	(b)	On or about February 22, 2010, the Company entered a loan agreement with one of its preferred shareholders and term loan participants (the "Lender") for a loan of $2.5 million (the "Long Term Loan"). On specified dates since then, the Long Term Loan has been increased by a total of $1,000,000. The original loan was conditional upon the Lender obtaining a first security position on all of the Company's assets. The loan was also conditional upon the Company's repurchase from Lender and its affiliate of 500,000 shares of the redeemable convertible preferred stock held by them collectively, repayment to the Lender of amounts Lender had previously advanced to Borrower under the Term Loan agreement (discussed above), and issuance to Lender of 9,275,000 shares of the Company's $.001 par value common stock representing twenty percent of the Company's outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis. The maturity date of this Long Term Loan and all related interest has been extended to February 2014. As of November 30, 2012, the total amount due under the Long Term Loan including accrued interest is $4,298,573.
	(c)	On or about February 11, 2011, the Company entered into a three-year marketing and distribution agreement granting KeHE Distributors LLC the exclusive rights to distribute into retail outlets all Artisanal products with primary focus on the Company's 16-cheese CheeseClock program. KeHE's exclusivity is dependent upon KeHE meeting specific minimum annual sales. Under the agreement, KeHE earns a commission of five percent (5%) on all net sales to accounts serviced by KeHE and may also earn stock options upon meeting specified sales thresholds over the term of the agreement (See Notes to Financials, Note 12, Shareholders Equity for details). The agreement further provides that KeHE will loan up to $520,000 to the Company to facilitate the purchase of inventory required for the KeHE accounts and that KeHE will advance up to an additional $100,000 of marketing funds to be used for in-store demonstrations and related marketing costs. The loan bears interest at a rate of 3-Month LIBOR plus 5% to be paid quarterly and is secured by the Company's accounts receivable and inventory. For so long as any amounts remain outstanding under the loan or KeHE maintains its exclusive distributor status and meets its annual minimum purchases, the Company may not incur any debt or issue any additional common stock without KeHE’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. As of May 2011, the Company had drawn down $520,000 of the total amount permitted under the agreement. In May 2011, it borrowed an additional $250,000 from KeHE to be repaid within 60 days. For this reason, $250,000 of the KeHE loan is reported under Notes Payable (Note 8). As an inducement for making this additional loan, the Company modified the vesting terms of KeHe’s 4,880,000 options, which were to be earned based on certain product purchase thresholds. Upon the execution on May 9, 2011, of the amended Marketing and Distribution Agreement, KeHE became fully vested on 440,000 three year options exercisable at $.30 a share. The fair market value of these options, utilizing the Black Scholes model, was $75,386. These costs were amortized over 60 days. The remaining 4,440,000 of options to be earned for future purchases of inventory were to become fully vested on August 22, 2011, if the $250,000 was not repaid. The additional funds were not repaid and the remaining options vested. The fair market value of these options, utilizing the Black Scholes model, was $976,628 all of which was expensed immediately. The principal of $770,000 is now due in May 2014. As of November 30, 2012, the total amount due under the KeHE Agreement including accrued interest is $838,462.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCY

The Company's subsidiary is currently involved in a couple of legal proceedings that are incidental to its operations. None of these proceedings may have, or have had in the 12 months preceding the date of this report, a significant effect on the financial position or profitability of the Company or its subsidiary:

CIT Technology Financing Services, Inc. v. Artisanal Cheese, LLC, New York Supreme Court (New York), Index No. 06159/10. In or about February 2010, Plaintiff filed suit seeking approximately $107,000 pursuant to two copier leases. The Company negotiated a settlement with plaintiff to resume monthly payments of $3,000 for the copiers. The Company defaulted on the settlement agreement. A judgment was entered but the Plaintiff has agreed to accept monthly payments of $5,000 until the amount due under the initial agreement has been paid. In a separate but related lawsuit (see Central Business Solutions below), the Company has asserted claims against the service provider which was to have provided for the trade-in and replacement of one copier rather than an additional lease for a third copier.

Central Business Solutions v. Artisanal Cheese, LLC New York City Civil Court (New York County), Index No. 043515/2010. Plaintiff is seeking approximately $13,000 for equipment maintenance services. The Company rejected Plaintiff's claim in full and has counterclaimed for damages resulting from Plaintiff's breach of contract, misrepresentation and fraud. There has been no activity in this case.

Charles Knott v. Artisanal Cheese, LLC, New York Supreme Court (New York County), Index No. 5073/2010. In June 2012, plaintiff commenced an action to recover unpaid principal and interest of a $150,000 loan made to the company which matured on December 31, 2011. The Company has negotiated a settlement with plaintiff which provides for monthly payments of $4,000 until the loan is paid.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Pursuant to a second addendum to the Marketing and Distribution Agreement between the Company and KeHE Distributors, the parties agreed that effective February 28, 2013, KeHE will no longer be obligated to maintain on its staff a salesperson dedicated to the Artisanal line of products nor to advance any additional funds under the Agreement. In exchange, KeHE agreed to the cancellation of 4,880,000 stock options that had previously been awarded to KeHE under the Agreement. The addendum further provides for the Company's repayment on or before May 31, 2013, of all amounts advanced by KeHE under the Agreement.

Item 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Financial Statements and the Notes to the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The Financial Statements for the six month period ending November 30, 2012, included in this Form 10-Q are unaudited; however, this information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim period.

Results of Operations

Three Months ending November 30, 2012 v. November 30, 2011

In the three month period ended November 30, 2012, we recorded sales of $589,619 versus $846,169 in the corresponding three month period in 2011. The sales reduction was due in part to our decision to limit the number of Costco road shows in favor of focusing our limited sales staff on the expansion of our retail program into traditional retailers that will stock our entire Artisanal CheeseClock™ retail program 52 weeks a year. The other contributing factor was our low inventory level that was tied to our lack of working capital. We made a decision to allocate a lot of our CEO’s time to our capital raising project to avoid continued daily inventory shortages that caused set-backs in the roll-out of our new retail program and with all customers including foodservice and E-commerce. Although we were able to obtain additional working capital in late October (discussed below), much of the inventory purchased with that capital was not received until the end of the quarter.

As referenced in our Form 10-K, Costco implemented new road shows rules that required all vendors to have two people in attendance during store hours, one of whom had to be a full-time employee of the vendor. Prior to this rule change we often had temporary workers that resided within the vicinity of the Costco location to conduct the road shows on our behalf to minimize travel costs and allow our full-time staff to spend more time opening new retail stores. The 4-day road shows that run from Thursday to Sunday consume close to 40 work hours. Under the new policy, we would have had to use our limited in-house retail staff for the roadshows and then allow them time off during the work week to compensate for the weekend hours they work at Costco. This significantly limits their ability to build a territory of regularly stocking retailers. Additionally, the road shows required new travel expenses when locations were beyond 30 miles from our offices. We needed to cut our expenses too until we were able to secure additional working capital to operate our company.

We are continuing our work with our distributor KeHE, but our growth was still hampered by our need to complete a capital plan (described below) that will enable us to recruit experienced sales personnel to accelerate placement of our Artisanal CheeseClock™ retail program in stores located throughout the country.

This spring the State of Connecticut passed new legislation allowing for wine retailers to operate under new rules that now allow for the sale of packaged food items in wine stores previously barred from selling food items. We have concentrated our focus on selling our Artisanal CheeseClock™ retail program in the state. Since the passage of the law, as of this filing we have successfully secured placement of our new retail program in 40 stores by working with wine distributors and wine markers that want their products cross-marketed with Artisanal’s cheeses using the 4-color CheeseClock™.program. The Connecticut laws now track the laws of New Jersey where we are also concentrating on selling our program. In New York State, the third state in the Tri-state region, wine stores are prohibited from selling food items. In New York, we look to partner with beer marketers that are interested in cross-merchandising their products with our new retail concept.

Our E-commerce division can be our fastest growing business short-term and the one that drives the highest margin. To achieve this potential, we need a deeper bench of more experienced personnel that can design a stronger customer acquisition plan and increase our daily online customer conversion rate. We are also looking to partner with much larger e-commerce businesses in wine and food that don’t directly compete with our company but can see the benefit of combining their marketing expertise with our brand, uniqueness and cheese quality. Subsequent to this reporting period, this December we started to cross-market with a online wine retailer by agreeing to include our respective catalogues in shipments to customers. While our cross-referencing is not complete as to the origin of new customers, we had 800 and 5,000+ new visitors to our website in November and December 2012, respectively.

Our cost of goods sold for the quarter was $465,808 versus $675,130 for the same quarter last year. We are continuing to work on ways to lower our cost of goods sold due to higher fuel charges that impact prices on packaging, cheese transportation and surcharges from overnight carriers on home deliveries as well as higher fuel surcharges per delivery. With lower sales, our fixed overhead represents a greater percentage of total sales. Our gross margin for the three month period was 21% up from 20% for the same three month period last year. We are still looking at competing shipping companies to control shipping costs better, assuming the new providers can offer more competitive rates. With the planned completion of our capital plans we will be able to make greater use of ocean carrier versus the more expensive airfreight which affords us some benefits and reduces the amount of capital tied up in inventory.

In this three month period, the Company recorded a net loss from operations of $735,836 versus a net loss from operations of $742,624 for the same period in 2011. Of this amount, approximately $175,799, is attributable primarily to interest on the term loan, the bridge loan and long-term debt.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses have decreased due to reduced payroll, streamlining of expenses and reduced sales and marketing expenses as a result of the reduction in Costco roadshows.

The Company also incurred $15,510 of amortization charges relating to the intangible assets and $17,100 of depreciation on the fixed assets.

On November 30, 2012, the Company had $1,414,116 in current assets, which consisted primarily of cash of $460,494, inventory of $490,835, prepaid expenses of $110,038, advances to suppliers of $132,604 and accounts receivable of $220,145. The Company had leasehold improvements and equipment of $472,448, other assets of $36,017 and intangibles of $3,432,585 net of amortization.

Six Months ending November 30, 2012 v. November 30, 2011

In the six month period ended November 30, 2012, we recorded sales of $1,088,285 versus $1,605,555 in the corresponding six month period in 2011. Once again, our reduction of Costco roadshows and low inventory levels contributed to lower sales for this period. It was further determined to be in the best interest of the Company to refrain from promoting and advancing business development initiatives in food service, e-commerce and retail until the company secured adequate working capital to meet the demand. As a premium brand company, our customers have high expectations and we could not afford to offer inferior service, quality or quantity to new or existing customers.

Our cost of goods sold analysis is the same as we described above in the analysis of the past 3 months ending November 30, 2012.

In this six month period, the Company recorded a net loss from operations of $1,229,759 versus a net loss from operations of $2,434,450 for the same period in 2011. Of the latter amount, $976,628 is attributable to non-cash stock compensation expense relating to the vesting of 4,440,000 common stock options that had been granted to KeHE Distributors in connection with the marketing and distribution agreement entered in February 2011 and amended in May 2011. Management determined that it was in the Company's best interest to accelerate the vesting of these options during our first quarter and take the hit to income immediately, rather than over the three-year term of the agreement when the expense would increase with each potential uptick in our stock price. In this six month period, the Company also incurred $334,336 in interest charges, which is attributable primarily to interest on the term loan, the bridge loan and long-term debt.

Our selling, general and administrative analysis is the same as we described above in the analysis of the past 3 months ending November 30, 2012.

The Company also incurred $35,594 of amortization charges relating to the intangible assets and $34,200 of depreciation on the fixed assets.

Liquidity and Financial Resources at November 30, 2012

As of November 30, 2012, the Company had $3,360,879 in current liabilities, which includes $1,074,000 in notes payable and current portion of long-term debt. The Company had accounts payable of $479,386, accrued payroll taxes of $1,202,676, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities totaling $558,355. The Company’s current liabilities also include outstanding prepaid gift certificates and other deferred revenue totaling $46,462.

On or about February 22, 2010, we entered a loan agreement with one of our preferred shareholders and term loan participants (the "Lender") for a loan of $2.5 million. On specified dates since then, the Long Term Loan has been increased by a total of $1,382,000. The original loan was conditional upon the Lender obtaining a first security position on all of our assets. The loan was also conditional upon our repurchase from Lender and its affiliate 500,000 shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock they held collectively, repayment to the Lender of amounts Lender had previously advanced to Borrower under the Term Loan agreement and issuance to Lender of 9,275,000 shares of our common stock representing approximately twenty percent of our outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis. In October 2012, the maturity date of this loan was extended to February 2014. As of November 30, 2012, the total amount due under the Long Term Loan including accrued interest is $4,298,573.

In or about February 2011, Artisanal entered into a three-year marketing and distribution agreement granting KeHE Distributors LLC the exclusive rights to distribute into retail outlets all Artisanal products with primary focus on our 16-cheese CheeseClockTM program. KeHE's exclusivity is dependent upon KeHE meeting specific minimum annual sales. Under the agreement, KeHE earns a commission of five percent (5%) on all net sales to accounts serviced by KeHE and could also earn up to 4,880,000 of common stock options upon meeting specified sales thresholds over the term of the agreement The agreement further provided that KeHE would loan Artisanal up to $520,000 to facilitate the purchase of inventory required for the KeHE accounts and that KeHE would advance up to an additional $100,000 of marketing funds to be used for in-store demonstrations and related marketing costs. The loan bears interest at a rate of 3-Month LIBOR plus 5% to be paid quarterly and is secured by our accounts receivable and inventory.

In May 2011, we borrowed an additional $250,000 from KeHE to be repaid within 60 days. For this reason, $250,000 of the KeHE loan is reported under Notes Payable. As an inducement for making this additional loan, we modified the vesting terms of KeHE’s 4,880,000 options, which were to be earned based on certain product purchase thresholds. Upon the execution on May 9, 2011, of the amended Marketing and Distribution Agreement, KeHE became fully vested in 440,000 three year options exercisable at $.30 a share. The remaining 4,440,000 of options were to become fully vested on August 22, 2011, if the $250,000 was not repaid. As the additional funds were not repaid on that date, the remaining options vested. As of November 30, 2012, the total amount due under the KeHE Agreement, as amended, including accrued interest is $838,462.

Over the following twelve months, we raised additional sums of capital from our current lender and shareholders in the form of additions to the Long Term Loan (as described above) and the sold the final outstanding 1,135,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that the board had authorized in 2007 in connection with the acquisition of Artisanal's operations but that were not sold at that time.

In June 2012, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement with the purpose of raising as much as $8,000,000 to pay down debts and afford our company greater working capital to build out our sales organization. Our planned use of proceeds will be to retire the shareholders loans of approximately $1.1 million and pay off all accrued taxes leaving approximately $6 million in working capital. This level of working capital will help us make senior and junior hires to accelerate our growth plans in the 3 business lines – retail, foodservice, E-commerce and lower our cost of goods sold by purchasing more merchandise in larger quantities and relying less on air freight for international shipments of cheese.

In October 2012, two private lenders agreed to loan to the Company a total of $1,700,000 secured and to be paid down by using the Company's credit card receipts for online purchases. The loan bears interest of 6% per annum and matures on October 14, 2014. The lenders each received one share of the Company's common stock for each dollar they loaned, respectively. The proceeds are being used to pay down tax liabilities and for operating capital. One of the lenders had previously loaned the Company $150,000 under the term loan which matured on December 31, 2011. As part of this transaction, he agreed to postpone repayment of that loan and all accrued interest thereon until the $1,700,000 has been repaid or October 14, 2014, whichever is earlier. As part of this transaction, the Long-Term Lender extended the maturity date of the Long Term Loan from February 2013 to February 2014. As of November 30, 2012, the total amount due under the October 2012 Loan, including accrued interest is $1,852,288.

We generate cash from the sales of our products. Wholesale and retail customers purchasing on an open account basis have 30-day payment terms. All others sales pertaining to cheese and related items from our print catalog or website or sales relating to classes at the cheese center are paid through credit card which generally settle within three days of purchase. While we believe our cash flow will be sufficient to meet our fixed monthly expenses, the Offering described above is critical to advancing our business plan as stated above.

As long as more than $1,500,000 of the Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, we will need the prior written consent of holders representing two-thirds of the Preferred stock issued and outstanding to (a) sell, merge with, acquire or consolidate with another business entity, (b) incur additional leverage beyond the leverage we contemplated upon acquiring Artisanal Cheese, LLC in 2007, or (c) issue any new shares of common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock in excess of 2% of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of August 14, 2007. If we cannot obtain the requisite two-thirds approval for any future transaction, these restrictions may affect our liquidity and our ability to execute our business plan.

Inflation and Changing Prices

We do not foresee any risks associated with inflation or substantial price increases in the near future. In addition, the cheeses that we select for our affinage process are often available from various sources. As such, while we have exposure to inflation, we do not believe that inflation will have any materially significant impact on our operations in the near future.

We do not foresee any increase in costs that cannot be passed on to our customer in the ordinary course of business. We adjust our wholesale and online prices throughout the year to reflect increase costs attributable to increases in energy prices. Under very limited circumstances, Artisanal has entered into agreements with certain customers for which we provide third-party drop-ship fulfillment with contracted pricing for various cheese collections. We, in turn, usually have a corresponding agreement with the cheese suppliers whose products are incorporated into these collections for fixed prices to ensure that we achieve our anticipated gross margin.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that our critical accounting policies are limited to those described below. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies see Note 2 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Long-Lived Assets (including Tangible and Intangible Assets)

We acquired businesses in recent years, which resulted in intangible assets being recorded. The determination of the value of such intangible assets requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our consolidated financial statements. We assess potential impairment to the intangible and tangible assets on a quarterly basis or when evidence of events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators, if any, and future cash flows related to these assets are based on operational performance of our business, market conditions and other factors.

Accounting for Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our financial statements we are required to estimate our income taxes. Management judgment is required in determining our provision of our deferred tax asset. We recorded a valuation for the full deferred tax asset from our net operating losses carried forward due to the Company not demonstrating any consistent profitable operations. In the event that the actual results may differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods we may need to adjust such valuation recorded.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures 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. Based on his evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and our principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures have not been effective in that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) has not been recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) has not been accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness; yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting. Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls. Based on this assessment, our management has concluded that as of November 30, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles as a result of the material weaknesses indentified in our disclosure controls and procedures as described earlier in this section.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our second fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
