Phoenix International Ventures, Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 (Unaudited)

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Activities
 
Phoenix International Ventures, Inc. (“PIV” or the “Company”) was organized August 7, 2006 as a Nevada corporation to develop business in the market of defense and aerospace. The Company’s primary business is manufacturing, re-manufacturing and upgrading of Ground Support Equipment (“GSE”) used in military and commercial aircraft.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with the requirements for Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP’) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2008 financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2009.
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned US subsidiary Phoenix Aerospace, Inc. (“PAI”) and an Israeli subsidiary, Phoenix Europe Ventures, Ltd. (“PEV). Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported and disclosed in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued three Staff Positions (“FSPs”) that are intended to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures about fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FSP FAS 157-4 clarifies the objective and method of fair value measurement even when there has been a significant decrease in market activity for the asset being measured. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 establish a new model for measuring other-than-temporary impairments for debt securities, including establishing criteria for when to recognize a write-down through earnings versus other comprehensive income. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 expands the fair value disclosures required for all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to interim periods. All of these FSPs are effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2009. The Company is assessing the potential impact that the adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 may have on its financial statements. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 will result in increased disclosures in the Company’s interim periods.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
The information set forth in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) contains certain “forward-looking statements”, including, among others (i) expected changes in the Company’s revenues and profitability, (ii) prospective business opportunities and (iii) the Company’s strategy for financing its business. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements of current condition. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by use of terms such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends” or “expects.” These forward-looking statements relate to the plans, objectives and expectations of the Company for future operations. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this report should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.
 
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes attached hereto, and the other financial data appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report.
 
The Company’s revenues and results of operations could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the risk of significant natural disaster, the inability of the Company to insure against certain risks, inflationary and deflationary conditions and cycles, currency exchange rates, changing government regulations domestically and internationally affecting our products and businesses.
 
OVERVIEW

Phoenix International Ventures, Inc. (“PIV” or the “Company”) was incorporated on August 7, 2006. The financial statements are consolidated with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Phoenix Aerospace, Inc. and Phoenix Europe Ventures, Ltd.

Revenues. Revenues increased 98% to $931,842 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to $471,166 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to an increase in sales order and deliveries.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009, 45% of revenues were from remanufacturing, 21% was manufacturing and design, 19% were study contracts, and 15% from parts trading.  This compares 34% of revenues from remanufacturing, 38% from study contracts, and 28% from parts trading during the three months ended March 31, 2008.

As of March 31, 2009, 85% of our revenues were derived from U.S. customers and 15% from European customers. As of March 31, 2008, 48% of our revenues were derived from U.S. customers and 52% from European customers.

US Navy and Air Force and U.S. Army represented 40% of the Company’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  The remaining 60% of revenue is attributed to sales to aerospace companies and military contractors. Two customers represented 72% of the Company’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Each period, we deliver a few orders with relatively large dollar amounts which can cause fluctuations in our revenues, segments and costs of sales, depending on the delivery date of those orders.

Cost of Sales. Cost of revenues consists primarily of sub contractors and raw materials used in manufacturing along with other related charges. Cost of sales increased 169% to $661,067 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $245,396 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, representing 71% and 52% of the total revenues for three months ended March 31, 2009 and three months ended March 31, 2008, respectively. The increase in our cost of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as a percentage of revenue is primarily attributable to large sales contracts which had lower margins.
-12-


General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 35% to $309,600 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $227,749 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The increases in general and administrative costs are primarily attributable to an increase of  salaries and audit fees in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with the same period in 2008. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased to 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to 48% for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Net (loss) income. Net Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 amounted to $59,977 as compared to a net income of $558,972 for the same period during 2008.  The 2008 income was attributable to a one time recovery of a contingent loss in the amount of $556,154 in the three months ended March 31, 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Cash as of March 31, 2009 amounted to $45,254, as compared with $225,767 as of December 31, 2008, a decrease of $180,513. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009, was $167,486. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $3,965 with a $9,062 currency change.
 
We lease a 7,500 square foot operating facility under a non cancelable lease expiring September 30, 2009. We also lease another 10,300 square foot operating facility under a lease term that commenced March 1, 2009 and expires February 28, 2011.  Minimum lease payments for both facilities total $166,066 through February 28, 2011.  Lease expenses through March 31, 2009 were $13,570, compared to $9,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.  We relocated our headquarters in March 2009 to the larger facility in order to accommodate our increased production. While we still maintain our lease on our former facility , we have no intentions of continuing the lease beyond the expiration date of September 30, 2009.
 
We will continue to finance our operations mainly from the cash provided from operating activities. Management believes that we will execute significant portions of our backlog in fiscal year 2009 and proceeds from those sales are expected to fund our operations.   As of March 31, 2009, we had a backlog of approximately $5,390,318. One of the orders is for the design and manufacturing of new aircraft engine trailers for the approximate amount of $2,044,889. In addition, two of the orders are from two customers for the approximate amount of $656,391. These orders are for time, material and an agreed profit. We collect a significant amount of these revenues on a monthly basis and progress towards milestone billing. For these types of orders, which make up most of our backlog, there is no need for us to finance materials and labor. Additionally, management is expecting, although there can be no assurance, that additional orders will come in. Since December 31, 2008 we have announced an additional $629,000 of new orders. These orders are expected to be delivered in 2009. The Company has promissory note arrangements in the amount of $236,536 which are due to mature between June 21 to August 19, 2009, management believes the Company has sufficient funds to repay these note arrangements.

We may consider raising additional capital through private and/or public placements to fund possible acquisitions and business development activities and for working capital.

Controls and Procedures
  
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q , we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure of material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving these objectives. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to a reasonable assurance level of achieving such objectives.
 
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting: There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2009  that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
