NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited




1.  NATURE OF OPERATIONS


ACREX Ventures Ltd., incorporated in British Columbia, is a public company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX") in Canada and on the NASD over-the-counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") in the U.S.


The Company is in the exploration stage and its principal business activity is the sourcing and exploration of mineral properties in Canada.


The accompanying unaudited financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles but do not conform in all respects to the note disclosure requirements for its annual financial statements.  The unaudited financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting principles and policies described in the annual financial statements, unless otherwise mentioned, and should be read in conjunction with those statements. Except for the changes in accounting policies described in Note 2, these unaudited interim financial statements follow the same significant accounting policies as the annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included in these financial statements.



2.  CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Effective January 1, 2007, the Company has adopted three new accounting standards related to financial instruments that were issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) in 2005. These accounting policy changes were adopted on a prospective basis with no restatement of prior period financial statements. The new standards and accounting policy changes are as follows:


Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement (CICA Handbook Section 3855)

In accordance with this new standard the Company now classifies all financial assets and liabilities instruments as either held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, held for trading, loans and receivables, or other financial liabilities. Financial assets held to maturity, loans and receivables and financial liabilities other than those held for trading, are measured at amortized cost. Available-for-sale instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Instruments classified as held for trading are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized on the statement of loss.


Comprehensive Income (CICA Handbook Section 1530)

Comprehensive income is the change in shareholders’ equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. In accordance with this new standard, the Company now reports a statement of comprehensive loss and a new category, accumulated other comprehensive income, has been added to the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet. The components of this new category will include unrealized gains and losses on financial assets classified as available-for-sale and the effective portion of cash flow hedges, if any. There were no such components to be recognized in comprehensive income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007.


Hedges (CICA Handbook Section 3865)

The new standard specifies the criteria under which hedge accounting can be applied and how hedge accounting can be executed. The Company has not designated any hedging relationships.

Michaud gold claims, Ontario, Canada - Pursuant to an Agreement dated September 1, 2001 and amended January 17, 2003 and February 17, 2004 (“Agreement”) with Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (“Moneta”), the Company acquired an option to earn interests in 65 mineral claims in the Michaud Township, Ontario, Canada (the “Property”). The Property is divided into two areas.


Pursuant to the Agreement the Company could have earned a 60% interest in the first area by expending a minimum of $1,000,000 on exploration of the area by May 15, 2005 and completing a bankable feasibility study on the area by May 15, 2007. The Company was required to give notice to Moneta by December 31, 2004 of its intention to conduct further exploration on this area. The notice was not provided and as a result the Company lost all of its rights to earn any interest in the first area.


During 2004 the Company fulfilled the requirements to earn a 50% interest in the second area. On November 26, 2004, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Moneta to engage in the exploration, development and mining of the second area. The agreement also includes terms for the acquisition of additional mining or mineral claims or other real property interests within the area of interest.


In order to earn an additional 20% interest in the second area the Company was required to give notice to Moneta by December 31, 2004 of its intent to expend a minimum of $2,750,000 on exploration of the property by May 15, 2007. The Company decided to not give such notice and as a result relinquished the right to earn the additional 20% in the second area.


The Agreement also includes terms for the acquisition of additional mineral claims within the area of interest. Pursuant to these provisions, the Company has agreed with Moneta to acquire 50% of the net 75% interest (i.e. a net 37.5% interest) in three adjoining mineral claims known to the parties as the Dyment Claims - which cover approximately 48 hectares. To reimburse Moneta for its costs of the original acquisition of interests in the Dyment Claims, the Company has agreed to pay Moneta $50,000, all of which has been paid as of December 31, 2006.


Spanish Mountain claims, British Columbia, Canada - On July 23, 2005, the Company entered into an Option Agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire a 100% interest in the Spanish Mountain property, consisting of 8 mineral claims covering approximately 1,350 hectares located near Likely in Northeastern British Columbia, Canada.

On February 7, 2007, the Company acquired 100% interest of two mineral tenures immediately to the west and south of the Company's existing claim group.  The purchase price of these claims was $10,000 and 200,000 shares.  The fair value of these shares was $40,000.

Each unit consisted of one common shares and one half of one common share purchase warrant.

6.  STOCK OPTION PLAN AND STOCK - BASED COMPENSATION (continued)


The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options granted. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For purposes of the calculation, the following assumptions were used:
