Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As of September 30, 2010 (Unadudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Operations, Going Concern and Bankruptcy

A.	Organization and Operations

Marine Growth Ventures, Inc. (“MGV”) was formed and incorporated in the state of Delaware on November 6, 2003. MGV was a holding company that conducted its operations primarily through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Sophlex Ship Management, Inc. (“Sophlex”). MGV, Marine Growth Finance & Charter, Inc., Inc., Sophlex Ship Management, Inc., Marine Growth Freight, Inc., Marine Aggregates, Inc., Gulf Casino Cruises, Inc., Ship Timeshare Management, Inc., Marine Growth Canada, Ltd., Fractional Marine, Inc., Cruiseship Share Owners Association, Inc. and Pacific Aurora Cruise Association, Inc. are referred to collectively herein as the “Company”.

The Company had no significant business operations until its acquisition of Sophlex on September 1, 2004. Sophlex, which was founded in 1999, provides ship crewing and management services to vessel owners and operators in the United States and abroad. The founder and the sole shareholder of Sophlex at the time of the acquisition is the current Chief Operating Officer of the Company. At the time acquisition both companies were private entities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company discontinued all marine operations with the loss of the remaining vessel and is currently pursuing other business opportunities inside and outside the shipping industry.

B. Going Concern

Since its inception, the Company has been dependent upon the proceeds of loans from its stockholders and the receipt of capital investments to fund its continuing activities. The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception. The Company expects to incur significant increasing operating losses over the next several years until we can maintain a consistent revenue stream. There is no assurance that the Company’s developmental and marketing efforts will be successful. The Company will continue to require the infusion of capital or loans until operations become profitable. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever achieve any revenues or profitable operations from the sale of its proposed products. The Company is seeking additional capital at this time. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had a net loss of $155,519 and a negative cash flow from operations of $19,254 and as September 30, 2010, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,959,059 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $2,327,105. As a result of the above, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

C. Bankruptcy of Marine Growth Canada, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Marine Growth Ventures, Inc.

On July 2, 2009, the Supreme Court of the British Columbia in Bankruptcy declared Marine Growth Canada, Ltd (“MGC”) bankrupt under the laws of British Columbia. The court appointed a Trustee to manage the affairs and property of Marine Growth Canada, Ltd.

The assets of MGC total $1,154 and the liabilities total $69,735 at September 30, 2010. At this time the trustee has notified us that there are minimal assets that remain to be distributed to creditors.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(A)	Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Marine Growth Ventures, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Marine Growth Finance & Charter, Inc., Inc., Sophlex Ship Management, Inc., Marine Growth Freight, Inc., Marine Aggregates, Inc., Gulf Casino Cruises, Inc., Ship Timeshare Management, Inc., Marine Growth Canada, Ltd., Fractional Marine, Inc., Cruiseship Share Owners Association, Inc. and Pacific Aurora Cruise Association, Inc. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(B)	Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

(C)	Loss per Share

Net loss per share (basic and diluted) has been computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Common stock equivalents were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as there were none outstanding during the periods presented as well as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

(D)	Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2010 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, such condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for the fair representation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations. The consolidated results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year end December 31, 2009 appearing in Form 10K filed on March 30, 2010.

(E)	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In the opinion of management, there are no recent accounting pronouncements that will have a material effect the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(F)	Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is performed by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Note 3- Related Party Transactions

On January 5, 2006 the Company entered into a Revolving Note (“Note A”) with an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 to Frank Crivello. Funds are advanced to us as needed to pay for ongoing operations. Note A had a maturity date of June 30, 2006. As a result of thirteen amendments to Note A, the principal amount of Note A was increased to $800,000 and the maturity date of Note A was extended to December 31, 2011. Note A has an interest rate of 10%. As of September 30, 2010, the balance on this loan is $130,831 ($59,500 in principal and $71,331 in interest).

On August 1, 2007, the Company issued a revolving note (“Note B”), with an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 to an entity that is controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Funds are advanced to the Company, as needed, to finance ongoing operations. Note B had a maturity date of July 31, 2008. It has been agreed that the maturity date will extend to December 31, 2008 unless the lender notifies the borrower, in writing, thirty days prior to the maturity date. Note B bears an interest rate of 10%. As a result of eight amendments to Note B, the principal amount of Note B was increased to $850,000 and the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company received $20,400 on this loan. As of September 30, 2010, the balance on this loan is $1,029,539 ($830,563 in principal and $198,976 in interest).

The Company utilizes space in Milwaukee, Wisconsin owned by an entity controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors. The fair market value of this rent was $1000 per month in and was recorded as $9,000 rent expense and a corresponding related party liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. On March 1, 2010, the Company entered into a month-to-month lease agreement with an entity controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors for $1,000 per month. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, $2,000 of the $9,000 debt was forgiven and converted into additional paid in capital.

The Company utilizes employees of an entity controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors. The value of the work done by the employees of the entity controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors equated to $14,063 during the nine months ending September 30, 2010. These services and a corresponding related party liability was recorded. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, this debt was forgiven and converted into additional paid in capital.

Note 4 – Notes Payable - Others

During the nine months ending September 30, 2010, the Company signed a promissory note with Sichenzia, Ross, Friedman and Ference, LLP regarding their outstanding balance. The note took the reconciled outstanding balance due of $269,881 and converted it to a promissory note. The Company will pay interest upon the agreed amount at the rate of 5% per annum, payable upon the maturity date of April 1, 2013.

During the nine months ending September 30, 2010, the Company signed a promissory note with Schreeder, Wheeler & Flint, LLP regarding their outstanding balance. The note took the reconciled outstanding balance due of $120,000 and converted it to a promissory note. The Company will pay interest upon the agreed amount at the rate of 5% per annum, payable on each June 1 during the term of the Note. The Company shall also make principal payments of $20,000 on or before June 1, 2011 and June 1, 2012. The remaining outstanding balance shall be due and payable upon the maturity date of April 1, 2013.

Note 5 – Euro Oceans, Co.

On May 21, 2010, the Company agreed with the Plaintiff to settle the litigation, including the Company’s counterclaim against the Plaintiff, in consideration for a payment by the company to Plaintiff of $40,000 to be delivered on or before June 15, 2010. In the event that the settlement payment is not made as agreed, the Company has agreed that the Plaintiff will have the right to enforce a judgment against the Company in the amount of $80,000. The Company did not make the payment as agreed and the Plaintiff has the right to enforce a judgment against the Company.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q, including this discussion and analysis by management, contains or incorporates forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “could,” “possibly,” “probably,” anticipates,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” or “should” or other variations or similar words. No assurances can be given that the future results anticipated by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations. The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied herein are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.

Background

We were formed and incorporated in the state of Delaware on November 6, 2003. We are a holding company and conduct our current operations solely through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Sophlex Ship Management, Inc. (“Sophlex”).

We had no significant business operations until our acquisition of Sophlex on September 1, 2004. Sophlex, which was founded in 1999, provides ship crewing and management services to vessel owners and operators in the United States and abroad. Our Chief Operating Officer was the founder and the sole shareholder of Sophlex prior to the acquisition.

Results of Operations

Since our inception, we have been dependent upon the proceeds of loans from our stockholders and the receipt of capital investment to fund our continuing activities. We have incurred operating losses since our inception. We expect to incur significant increasing operating losses over the next several years until we can maintain a consistent revenue stream. We will continue to require the infusion of capital until operations become profitable. Presently, we have no commitments to provide such capital. We had a loss from operations of $155,519 and a negative cash flow from operations of $19,254 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

Payroll and Related Expenses: Payroll and related expenses were $4,688 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $8,008 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease of $3,320 was due to the waiving of the president’s payroll until the Company has sustainable revenues.

Professional Fees: Professional fees were $3,961 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $48,632 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The net decrease of $44,671 is primarily due a decrease in legal fees of $39,277 and accounting fees of $3,000.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $4,807 and $12,487 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. General and administrative expenses decreased by $7,680 in the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in rent and office expenses of $6,827.

Other Income/(Expenses): Other Income/(Expenses) was ($27,719) for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to (21,129) for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase of $6,590 was primarily due an increase in interest expense of $6,039 in the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Net (Loss) from Continuing Operations: Net(Loss) from Continuing Operations was ($41,175) and ($90,336) for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in the net loss of $49,161 is primarily attributed a decrease in professional fees of $ 44,671during the three months ended September 30, 2010 due to the decrease in operations.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations: Net Income from discontinued operations was $0 and $1,350,399 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in net income from discontinued operations of $1,350,399 is primarily due to the settlement with Greystone and the vessel “the Babe”.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

Revenue: Revenue was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0 earned in the nine months ended September, 2009. In the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the company had no revenue.

Payroll and Related Expenses: Payroll and related expenses were $14,063 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $35,746 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease of $21,683 was due to the majority of the officers waiving their payroll as of March 1, 2008 and will continue to do so until the Company has sustainable revenues.

Professional Fees: Professional fees were $51,646 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $155,812 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The net decrease of $104,166 is primarily due to the decrease in legal fees of $161,073, decrease in accounting fees of $17,893, and a decrease of other professional fees of $5,200 offset by an increase in consulting fees of $80,000.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $12,414 and $32,419 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. General and administrative expenses decreased by $20,005 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This decrease is mainly due to a decrease in rent of $12,749 and other office related expenses of $5,114.

Other Income/(Expense): Other Income/(Expense) was ($77,397) for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to ($288,569) for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a decrease in income/(expense) of $211,172. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $201,823.

Net (Loss) from Continuing Operations: Net (loss) from Continuing Operations was ($155,519) and ($512,546) for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in net (loss) of $357,027 is primarily attributed to a decrease in interest expense of $201,823.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations: Net Income from Discontinued Operations was $0 and $1,266,031 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in net income of $1,266,031 is primarily attributed to the decrease in extinguishment gain of $1,351,171 attributed to the settlement with Greystone and the vessel “the Babe”.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On July 2, 2009, the Supreme Court of the British Columbia in Bankruptcy declared Marine Growth Canada, Ltd bankrupt under the laws of British Columbia. The court appointed a Trustee to manage the affairs and property of Marine Growth Canada, Ltd. The assets of MGC total $1,154 and the liabilities total $69,735 at September 30, 2010, the company has not recorded any additional income or expenses due to the bankruptcy. The Trustee transferred title to the Pacific Aurora to the secured creditor, Greystone Business Credit II, LLC. With that transfer, the trustee noted that subsequent to this transaction, there will not be any proceeds available for distribution to the unsecured creditors.

The Company believes that it is not responsible for the debts of MGC and is not liable to Greystone for the indebtedness that is the subject of the Action. However, the seizure and sale of the Ship, which is an asset of MGC will prevent the Company from pursuing a material part of its current business plan.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a negative cash flow from operations of $19,254 compared to a negative cash flow of $144,987 as of September 30, 2009, a decrease in the negative cash flow of $125,733. Since inception, we have been dependent upon proceeds of loans from our stockholders and receipt of capital investment to fund our continuing activities.

The balance at September 30, 2010 on Revolving Note “A” issued on January 5, 2006 was $130,831 ($59,500 in principal and $71,331 in accrued interest).

The Company borrowed an additional $20,400 on the Revolving Note “B” issued on August 1, 2007, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. At September 30, 2010 the balance on this note was $1,029,539 ($830,563 in principal and $198,976 in accrued interest).

We currently do not have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of our anticipated obligations for the next twelve months and there can be no assurance that we will ultimately close on the necessary financing. In addition to any third-party financing we may obtain, we currently expect that loans from our stockholders may be a continuing source of liquidity to fund our operations. Accordingly, we will need to seek funding in the near future. In view of the forgoing, there are no assurances that we can or will continue as a going concern.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional funds through debt and equity funding as well as from sales of various services. As we note in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 as well as our related consolidated statements of operations, and cash flows for the period ended September 30, 2010, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, recurring net losses, negative cash flows from operations, limited amount of funds on our balance sheet. Accordingly, we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have prepared our financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies

Going Concern:

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional funds through debt and equity funding as well as from sales of various services. As we note in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 as well as our related consolidated statements of operations, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, recurring net losses, negative cash flows from operations, limited amount of funds on our balance sheet. Accordingly, we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have prepared our financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence.

Impairment

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes ship management and consulting revenue when earned. At the time of the transaction, the Company assesses whether the fee is fixed and determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether collectibility is reasonably assured. If a significant portion of a fee is due after the normal payment terms, the Company accounts for the fee as not being fixed and determinable. In these cases, the Company recognizes revenue as the fees become due. Where the Company provides a service at a specific point in time and there are no remaining obligations, the Company recognizes revenue upon completion of the service. The Company recognizes charter revenue on the first of the month when the fee is billed.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK - None

ITEM 4-T – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC’s rules and forms. This information is also accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter reported herein. Based on that evaluation our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2010 because of the material weaknesses disclosed below.

As part of our quarterly evaluation of the effectiveness, design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures described above, we have concluded that the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that existed at December 31, 2009 continued to exist at September 30, 2010:

A material weakness in the Company’s internal controls exists in that there is limited segregation of duties amongst the Company’s employees with respect to the Company’s preparation and review of the Company’s financial statements.

A material weakness in the Company’s internal controls exists in that there is an insufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of experience and knowledge of the U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements. This material weakness may affect management’s ability to effectively review and analyze elements of the financial statement closing process and prepare financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP

Management has identified a weakness in its review process of disclosures of subsequent events.

Because of its 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.

(b)	Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that had materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In the event that the settlement payment is not made as agreed, the Company has agreed that the Plaintiff will have the right to enforce a judgment against the Company in the amount of $80,000.
