Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS COMBINATION
Truesport Alliances & Entertainment, Ltd. (formerly Sewell Ventures, Inc. and referred to herein as Truesport or the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 27, 2007 to search for investment opportunities.
On December 16, 2009, the Company acquired Seven Base Consulting, LLC, d.b.a. 7Base a privately owned Nevada limited liability company (7Base), pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement (the Exchange). 7Base was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 17, 2008. 7Base is a diversified company engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, selling, distributing, and licensing to others the right to resell high quality, branded apparel, sporting goods, fitness equipment, merchandise, training centers and events under their own brand image. In addition, 7Base generates additional revenues through the sale of consulting, media, and entertainment services related to the mixed martial arts industry. Upon consummation of the Exchange, the Registrant adopted the business plan of 7Base.
Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange, the Company acquired 7Base in exchange for an aggregate of 20,000,000 newly issued shares (the Exchange Shares) of the Companys common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock), resulting in an aggregate of 29,200,000 shares of the Company common stock issued and outstanding. As a result of the Exchange, 7Base became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company shares were issued to the members of 7Base on a pro rata basis, on the basis of the membership interests of 7Base held by such 7Base members at the time of the Exchange.
As a result of the ownership interests of the former shareholders of 7Base, for financial statement reporting purposes, the merger between the Company and 7Base has been treated as a reverse acquisition with 7Base deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company deemed the accounting acquiree under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with paragraph 805-40-05-2 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The reverse merger is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of 7Base (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to the Company (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the combination. The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the assets and liabilities of 7Base which are recorded at historical cost. The equity of the Company is the historical equity of 7Base retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares issued by the Company in the transaction.
Seven Base Consulting, LLC (7Base), is a limited liability company organized on October 17, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada.
The following schedule presents the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of operations of the Company for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and from inception through December 31, 2008 as if the Exchange had occurred at the inception date of October 17, 2008. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the combined company had these events occurred at the inception date, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X, however, they do include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended September 31, 2009 and notes thereto contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 9, 2009.
The consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of Truesport as of and for the interim period ended December 31, 2009. Truesport is included as of December 16, 2009 (date of acquisition) and for the period from December 16, 2009 (date of acquisition) through December 31, 2009. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
9
Property and Equipment
The Company records property and equipment at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the depreciable property. The estimated useful lives of the respective property and equipment are as follows:
Computer equipment | 3 years |
Office furniture and equipment | 5 years |
Gym equipment | 5 years |
Leasehold improvements | 15 years |
Depreciation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and from inception through December 31, 2008 was $3,715, and $443, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned less estimated future doubtful accounts. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires 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 based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using 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 to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Section 740-10-25). Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
Net income (loss) per common shares
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially outstanding shares of common shares during each period. There are no dilutive common shares or dilutive potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the periods reported.
Equity based payments
Equity based payments to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with section 505-50-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires that share-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On June 5, 2003, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted final rules under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Section 404), as amended by SEC Release No. 33-9072 on October 13, 2009. Under the provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, public companies and their independent auditors are each required to report to the public on the effectiveness of a companys internal controls. The smallest public companies with a public float below $75 million have been given extra time to design, implement and document these internal controls before their auditors are required to attest to the effectiveness of these controls. This extension of time will expire beginning with the annual reports of companies with fiscal years ending on or after June 15, 2010. Commencing with its annual report for the year ending September 30, 2010, the Company will be required to include a report of management on its internal control over financial reporting. The internal control report must include a statement
1
of managements responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over its financial reporting;
2
of managements assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of year-end; and
3
of the framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Furthermore, it is required to file the auditors attestation report separately on the Companys internal control over financial reporting on whether it believes that the Company has maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.
In June 2009, the FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP to be launched on July 1, 2009. The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05 Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures Topic 820 Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides amendments to subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: (1) A valuation technique that uses: (a) The quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset (b) Quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets. (2) Another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of topic 820; two examples would be an income approach, such as a present value technique, or a market approach, such as a technique that is based on the amount at the measurement date that the reporting entity would pay to transfer the identical liability or would receive to enter into the identical liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-08 Earnings Per Share Amendments to Section 260-10-S99,which represents technical corrections to topic 260-10-S99, Earnings per share, based on EITF Topic D-53, Computation of Earnings Per Share for a Period that includes a Redemption or an Induced Conversion of a Portion of a Class of Preferred Stock and EITF Topic D-42, The Effect of the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-09 Accounting for Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. This update represents a correction to Section 323-10-S99-4, Accounting by an Investor for Stock-Based Compensation Granted to Employees of an Equity Method Investee. Additionally, it adds observer comment Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees to the Codification. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
11
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-12 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic 820 Investment in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Assets Value Per Share (or Its Equivalent), which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-Overall, for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The amendments in this update permit, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment that is within the scope of the amendments in this update on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if the net asset value of the investment (or its equivalent) is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entitys measurement date, including measurement of all or substantially all of the underlying investments of the investee in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments in this update also require disclosures by major category of investment about the attributes of investments within the scope of the amendments in this update, such as the nature of any restrictions on the investors ability to redeem its investments a the measurement date, any unfunded commitments (for example, a contractual commitment by the investor to invest a specified amount of additional capital at a future date to fund investments that will be make by the investee), and the investment strategies of the investees. The major category of investment is required to be determined on the basis of the nature and risks of the investment in a manner consistent with the guidance for major security types in U.S. GAAP on investments in debt and equity securities in paragraph 320-10-50-1B. The disclosures are required for all investments within the scope of the amendments in this update regardless of whether the fair value of the investment is measured using the practical expedient. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 3 MANAGEMENT PLANS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $228,921 as of December 31, 2009.
While the Company does have an accumulated deficit of $228,921 as of December 31, 2009, the Company has cash on hand of $222,736 as of December 31, 2009 and sales were $498,054 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 which generated a gross profit of $269,719 and net income of $123,150. The Company believes in the viability of its strategy to produce sales volume and in its ability to grow organically; however, the Company intends to seek additional financing through a private placement memorandum. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to further implement its business strategy and to generate sufficient revenues. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to implement the Companys strategy provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY ADVANCES
During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company made advances to three related party stockholders including one director. The balance of advances to related parties totaled $10,296 as of December 31, 2009.
NOTE 5 RELATED PARTY NOTES RECEIVABLE
During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company loaned $131,784 to four related party stockholders including two directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company who is also a director. The loans are non interest bearing and are payable on demand. The balance of notes receivable from related parties totaled $339,339 as of December 31, 2009.
NOTE 6 DEFERRED REVENUE
The Company received deposits from a customer for goods and services which were not rendered or delivered as of December 31, 2009.

NOTE 7 ACCRUED COMPENSATION AND RELATED PARTY ACCRUED COMPENSATION
The Company entered into compensation agreements with several independent contractors which provide for guaranteed minimum payments to the contractors through December 31, 2009. Related party accrued compensation includes accrued compensation due to five stockholders including one director and the President and Chief Executive Officer who is also a director totaling $113,850 as of December 31, 2009. The accrued compensation to related party stockholders is payable in-full on July 15, 2010 and the Company will pay interest at four percent annually.

12
NOTE 8 NOTES PAYABLE AND RELATED PARTY NOTES PAYABLE
In connection with the build-out of two Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) gym facilities, the Company borrowed funds from a related party and an unrelated party to finance the MMA gym build-outs. As of December 31, 2009 the Company had borrowed $137,420 in connection with these MMA gym build-outs. The note payable and related party note payable bear no annual interest but are to be repaid according to the following terms:
1
On September 28, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated party and a related party stockholder. The agreement requires the Company to pay one third of net revenue generated from the MMA gym to the unrelated party and one third of the net revenue generated from the MMA gym to the related party stockholder. The agreement also requires the Company to pay ten percent of the Companys one third share of the net revenue generated from the MMA gym to the related party stockholder until the loan from the related party stockholder totaling $42,000 has been repaid in full.
2
On September 30, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement with two unrelated parties. The agreement requires that the Company pay two thirds of the net revenue generated from the Companys MMA club to the unrelated parties. Additionally, the unrelated parties which funded the MMA gym build-out will receive all of the net revenues generated from the MMA club, to be applied to their loan principal until their loan totaling $95,420 has been repaid in full.
Neither of the two MMA gym build-outs financed by these notes payable have generated positive net revenue as of December 31, 2009, therefore, the loans are stated at their full principal amounts as of December 31, 2009.
Additionally, related party stockholders have loaned the Company $381,545 as of December 31, 2009. These loans from stockholders were converted to notes payable on December 31, 2009 and the notes accrue interest at four percent annually. The principal and any accrued interest will be payable in full on December 31, 2011.
On December 18, 2009 another related party loaned the Company $50,000. The note bears interest at eight percent annually and the principal and accrued interest is due on March 18, 2010.
NOTE 9 INCOME TAXES
The Companys total deferred taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and the amounts used for federal income tax purposes. The Company has recognized a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefits of the assets.
NOTE 10 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On November 18, 2009, the Company entered into a royalty agreement with two related party shareholders which requires the Company to pay a royalty of 3.5 percent to the each of the two related party shareholders calculated on the gross profits generated from sales of TapouT branded equipment. The agreement stipulates that no royalties will be paid on the first $1,200,000 of net revenue generated from TapouT branded equipment sales. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has not incurred any expenses in connection with this royalty agreement.
NOTE 11 - STOCKHOLDERS DEFICIT

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q which address activities, events or developments which the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof); finding suitable merger or acquisition candidates; expansion and growth of the Company's business and operations; and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results or developments will conform with the Company's expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including general economic, market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of the Company.
These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking terminology, such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates," "plans," "may," "will," or similar terms. These statements appear in a number of places in this Filing and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, and its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) trends affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations for its limited history; (ii) the Company's business and growth strategies; and, (iii) the Company's financing plans. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors that could adversely affect actual results and performance include, but are not limited to, the Company's limited operating history, potential fluctuations in quarterly operating results and expenses, government regulation, technological change and competition.
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations. The Company assumes no obligations to update any such forward-looking statements.
ACQUISITION AND REORGANIZATION
On December 16, 2009, the date of the Acquisition of Seven Base Consulting, LLC. (7Base), 7Base was adopted as our business. As such, the following Management Discussion is focused on the current and historical operations of 7Base, and excludes the prior operations of the Registrant.
OVERVIEW
We are a diversified company engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, selling, distributing, and licensing others the right to resell high quality, branded apparel, sporting goods, fitness equipment, merchandise, training centers and events under their own brand image. In addition, our Company generates additional revenues through the sale of consulting, media, and entertainment services related to the mixed martial arts industry.
We are focused on establishing and positioning our private labeled products and services primarily within the skyrocketing growth sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). Operations started in November of 2008. MMA is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. We believe that the connection with mixed martial arts greatly influences the buying choices made by our target consumers as these events are broadcast to a global audience by television, the internet, theatre and printed media. People are attracted to the venues in which these events are performed and the values they represent, including individual expression, adventure and creativity.
Our activities generate the following principal sources of revenue:
1
equipment design and manufacturing;
2
branded merchandise sales
3
training center operations and event consulting
Although we have multiple sources of revenue, most of our revenue is derived from equipment design and manufacturing.

Comparison of results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and from inception through December 31, 2008:
Net Sales
Our net sales are comprised of equipment design and manufacturing, branded merchandise sales and consulting revenue. Net sales increased $445,877 in the three months ended December 31, 2009 from $52,177 in the period from inception through December 31, 2008. The increase in net sales in the three months ended December 31, 2009 over the comparable period in 2008 reflects the efforts we have made to establish new customer relationships and expand the services that we are providing to our existing customers in the MMA industry.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin consists of net sales less cost of sales. Our cost of sales consists primarily of product costs, wages, royalty expenses, and delivery and installation costs. Gross margin increased 20.0% to $269,719 in the three months ended December 31, 2009 from $17,722 in the period from inception through December 31, 2008. Our gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 54% in the three months ended December 31, 2009, compared with 34% in the period from inception through December 31, 2008. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was due in part to securing a license administration agreement with TapouT. Another factor that has contributed to the increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales is the expansion of the consulting services that we provide to our customers in the MMA industry. Our gross margin may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to the mix of products sold, as well as the timing of consulting engagements.
General and Administrative
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of wages and related payroll benefits for our administrative employees. These expenses also include legal and accounting professional fees, insurance, rent, sales and marketing, and other general corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 1% of net sales to $93,309 in the three months ended December 31, 2009 from $$9,401 in the period from inception through December 31, 2008.
Guaranteed payments
Guaranteed payments incurred during the period from inception through December 31, 2008 relate primarily to stock based compensation paid to the founders of the Company for services rendered. Guaranteed payments incurred during the three months ended December 31, 2009 are for additional accrued compensation to be paid to the founders of the Company for services rendered.
16
LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL
There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We have one year of operations and have generated minimal revenues. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns.
We are seeking equity financing to provide for the capital required to implement our operations. We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2009, the FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP to be launched on July 1, 2009. The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Codification is effective for the Company in the interim period ending December 31, 2009 and the Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05 Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures Topic 820 Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides amendments to subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: (1) A valuation technique that uses: (a) The quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset (b) Quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets. (2) Another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of topic 820; two examples would be an income approach, such as a present value technique, or a market approach, such as a technique that is based on the amount at the measurement date that the reporting entity would pay to transfer the identical liability or would receive to enter into the identical liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-08 Earnings Per Share Amendments to Section 260-10-S99,which represents technical corrections to topic 260-10-S99, Earnings per share, based on EITF Topic D-53, Computation of Earnings Per Share for a Period that includes a Redemption or an Induced Conversion of a Portion of a Class of Preferred Stock and EITF Topic D-42, The Effect of the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-09 Accounting for Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. This update represents a correction to Section 323-10-S99-4, Accounting by an Investor for Stock-Based Compensation Granted to Employees of an Equity Method Investee. Additionally, it adds observer comment Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees to the Codification. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-12 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic 820 Investment in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Assets Value Per Share (or Its Equivalent), which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-Overall, for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The amendments in this update permit, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment that is within the scope of the amendments in this update on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if the net asset value of the investment (or its equivalent) is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entitys measurement date, including measurement of all or substantially all of the underlying investments of the investee in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments in this update also require disclosures by major category of investment about the attributes of investments within the scope of the amendments in this update, such as the nature of any restrictions on the investors ability to redeem its investments a the measurement date, any unfunded commitments (for example, a contractual commitment by the investor to invest a specified amount of additional capital at a future date to fund investments that will be make by the investee), and the investment strategies of the investees. The major category of investment is required to be determined on the basis of the nature and risks of the investment in a manner consistent with the guidance for major security types in U.S. GAAP on investments in debt and equity securities in paragraph 320-10-50-1B. The disclosures are required for all investments within the scope of the amendments in this update regardless of whether the fair value of the investment is measured using the practical expedient. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
