KAT GOLD HOLDINGS CORP. (FKA BELLA VIAGGIO, INC.)

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 


NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Business Activity

Kat Gold Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 6, 2007.  Following its acquisition of Handcamp on June 4, 2010, a gold property located in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada (“Handcamp”), the Company changed its business model to that of a mineral acquisition, exploration and development company focused primarily on gold properties.  On August 26, 2010, the Company’s name was changed from Bella Viaggio, Inc. to Kat Gold Holdings Corp.  As of this annual report, the Company has not generated any revenues but has incurred expenses related to the drilling and exploration of Handcamp. The Company has commenced exploratory drilling operations on the Handcamp property and sent core samples obtained for analysis.  The Company is currently awaiting the results of these core samples.


The Company has not yet earned any revenue from operations. Accordingly, the Company’s activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Enterprise” as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement ASC 915 (“FASB ASC 915”). Among the disclosures required by FASB ASC 915 are that the Company’s financial statements be identified as those of a development stage operation, and that the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company’s inception.


Accounting Basis

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting). The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Comprehensive Income (Loss) The Company reports comprehensive income and its components following guidance set forth by section 220-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements.


Long-Lived Assets - The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with section 360-10-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Disclosure requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows. If so, it is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. The Company adopted the statement on inception. No impairments of these types of assets were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.


Risk and Uncertainties - The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the mining industry, including, but not limited to, litigation, development of new technological mining innovations and dependence on key personnel.


Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company does not incur any direct-response advertising costs.

KAT GOLD HOLDINGS CORP. (FKA BELLA VIAGGIO, INC.)

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 



Income Taxes - Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws.  A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. It is the Company’s policy to classify interest and penalties on income taxes as interest expense or penalties expense. As of June 30, 2012, there have been no interest or penalties incurred on income taxes.


Fair Value of Financial Statements – The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and security deposits. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to either length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.


Loss Per Share - Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during each period. There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding as of June 30, 2012 and 2011.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements - The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.


The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or the consolidated results of its operations.


In July 2010, the FASB amended the requirements for Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. The new disclosures as of the end of the reporting period are effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010, while the disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period were effective for the first fiscal quarter of 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s results of operations or financial position.


In January 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance regarding fair value measures and disclosures. The guidance requires disclosure of significant transfers between level 1 and level 2 fair value measurements along with the reason for the transfer. An entity must also separately report purchases, sales, issuances and settlements within the level 3 fair value roll forward. The guidance further provides clarification of the level of disaggregation to be used within the fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and clarified the disclosures required for the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure level 2 or level 3 fair value measurements. This new authoritative guidance is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s results of operations or financial position.


In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08 which provides an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test for goodwill impairment.  If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required.  Otherwise, no further testing is required. The revised standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 



In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-11, “Balance Sheet - Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” to enhance disclosure requirements relating to the offsetting of assets and liabilities on an entity's balance sheet. The update requires enhanced disclosures regarding assets and liabilities that are presented net or gross in the statement of financial position when the right of offset exists, or that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement. The new disclosure requirements relating to this update are retrospective and effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The update only requires additional disclosures, as such, the Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.


NOTE 2  SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION


Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are summarized as follows:

NOTE 3  GOING CONCERN AND UNCERTAINTY


The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception. In addition, the Company has yet to generate an internal cash flow from its business operations. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.


Management’s plans with regard to these matters encompass the following actions: 1) to raise financing to enable it to continue its locate, explore and develop mineral properties as well as to generate working capital, and 2) to sell mineral properties that it has located, explored and developed by attempting to enter into joint ventures with, or to sell interests in any property it manages to develop to, a major mining company. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to resolve its lack of liquidity and begin generating profits in its current business operations. However, the outcome of management’s plans cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties.


NOTE 4  DEVELOPMENT STAGE RISK


Since its inception, the Company has been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment to fund its continuing activities. In addition to the normal risks associated with a new business venture, there can be no assurance that the Company’s business plan will be successfully executed. The Company’s ability to execute its business plan will depend on its ability to obtain additional financing and achieve a profitable level of operations. There can be no assurance that sufficient financing will be obtained. Further, the Company cannot give any assurance that it will generate substantial revenues or that its business operations will prove to be profitable.


NOTE 5  MATERIAL EVENT (PURCHASE OF HANDCAMP PROPERTY)


During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company acquired (the “Acquisition”) 100% of “Handcamp,” a gold property, from Kat Exploration, Inc. (“KATX”) in exchange for 161,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

KAT GOLD HOLDINGS CORP. (FKA BELLA VIAGGIO, INC.)

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 



Under the terms of the agreement governing the Acquisition, the Company issued 65,000,000 shares of its common stock to KATX on September 4, 2010, and the remaining 96,000,000 shares of its common stock were issued to KATX on September 14, 2010.


The common shares were valued at $0.70 per share, the closing stock price on the date of the closing, resulting in recorded goodwill of $112,700,000. The Company’s management, upon review, determined that such amount might not be fully recoverable due to future cash flows being an uncertainty and an adjustment to write down the property was recorded.


NOTE 6  MATERIAL CONTRACTS


KATX entered into a Diamond Drilling Contract dated February 24, 2010 in which Cabo Drilling (Atlantic) Corp. agreed to provide certain drilling services at the Handcamp property. The contract covered various rates, which in the opinion of management represented market value rates, for mobilization and demobilization, overburden penetration (pipe and casing), core drilling, surveys and tests, etc. A security deposit of approximately $10,000 was made prior to commencement of mobilization and services were provided under this contract from July through September 2010 and all such services were paid for by KATX on behalf of the Company as it acquired rights to the property in June 2010.


On November 23, 2011, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement by and between the Company and KATX. The Company acquired 100% of the mineral rights that KATX then held in and to the mineral properties Rusty Ridge, Collier’s, North Lucky and South Lucky, from KATX solely in exchange for 135,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.


NOTE 7  INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED COMMON SHARES, DESIGNATION OF PREFERRED SHARES AND NAME CHANGE


On July 7, 2010, the board of directors of the Company and shareholders owning a majority of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company voted to approve (i) an increase in its authorized common shares to 500,000,000 shares and (ii) a change in the Company’s name to Kat Gold Holdings Corp. to better reflect the nature of its operations. The Company’s articles of incorporation were amended accordingly on August 2, 2010.


On April 20, 2012, the Company designated 2,500,000 shares of “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” and made the rights and preferences of such series and the limitations or restrictions thereon as follows;


1.

Rank. The Series A Preferred shall, with respect to rights on liquidation, rank equivalent to all classes of the common stock of the Company.


2.

Dividends. The holders of the Series A Preferred shall not be entitled to receive any dividends on their shares of Series A Preferred.


3.

Conversion.  The holders of the Series A Preferred shall have optional conversion rights as follows:


(a)

Right to Convert.  Each share of Series A Preferred shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock at any time from and after the date the Corporation’s net profits exceed $1,000,000.

Voting Rights.  On any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of the stockholders in lieu of a meeting), each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to cast twenty five (25) votes for each share of Series A Preferred held by such holder as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter. Except as provided by law or by other provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, holders of Series A Preferred shall vote together with holders of Common Stock as a single class.


On April 18, 2012, the Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Global Gold Incorporated, a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (“Global Gold”), and the shareholders of Global Gold (the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of Global Gold. The consideration that the Company paid (the “Purchase Price”) to the Sellers was an aggregate of 161,000,000 common shares of its common stock, of which 118,263,158 such common shares payable to Thomas Brookes and Matthew Sullivan, the principals of Global Gold, were placed in escrow and will be released in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement. Matthew Sullivan then became the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The transfer agent has not yet processed the 161,000,000 common shares as of the date of this filing but the Company is legally bound to deliver them as they are considered as issued and outstanding for legal and accounting purposes.


The 161,000,000common shares were valued at $0.10 per share, the closing stock price on the date of the closing, resulting in recorded goodwill of $11,600,000. The Company’s management, upon review, determined that such amount might not be fully recoverable due to future cash flows being an uncertainty and an adjustment to write down the property was recorded in the second quarter of 2012.


NOTE 8 LOSS PER SHARE


Loss per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic and diluted loss per share was the same for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 as well as for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.


NOTE 9 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


Certain of the Company’s officers and directors are involved in other related business activities and most likely will become involved in other business activities in the future.


NOTE 10 INCOME TAXES


For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $900,000 at June 30, 2012, and will begin to expire in the year 2025.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS.


Forward-looking Statements

We and our representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking,” including statements contained in this quarterly report and other filings with the SEC, reports to our stockholders and news releases. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this quarterly report to conform forward-looking statements to actual results.  Important factors on which such statements are based are assumptions concerning uncertainties, including but not limited to, uncertainties associated with the following:


Inadequate capital and barriers to raising the additional capital or to obtaining the financing needed to implement our business plans;


Our failure to earn revenues or profits;


Inadequate capital to continue business;


Volatility or decline of our stock price;


Potential fluctuation in quarterly results;


Rapid and significant changes in markets;


Litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties; and


Insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto which are included in this quarterly report.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.  Our actual results may differ substantially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements included in this discussion as a result of various factors.


Overview


We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 6, 2007.  On June 4, 2010, we acquired, in a transaction with our parent company Kat Exploration, Inc. (“Kat Exploration”), 100% of the mineral rights that Kat Exploration then held in and to Handcamp, a gold property (“Handcamp”) in exchange for 161,000,000 shares of our common stock.  Following our acquisition of these mineral rights, we changed our business model to that of a mineral acquisition, exploration and development company focused primarily on gold properties.  On August 26, 2010, our name was changed to Kat Gold Holdings Corp.


On November 25, 2011, pursuant to a purchase agreement between our company and Kat Exploration, Inc., we acquired 100% of the mineral rights that Kat Exploration then held in and to the mineral properties Rusty Ridge, Collier’s, North Lucky and South Lucky (each a “November Property” and collectively, the “November Properties”) located in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada from Kat Exploration in exchange for 135,000,000 shares of our common stock.  






- 11 -




On April 18, 2012, we acquired 100% of Global Gold Incorporated (“Global Gold”), a company that has the rights to operate the Ekom Eya gold deposit in Ghana (“Ekom Eya”), in exchange for 161,000,000 shares of our common stock.  The Ekom Eya project has a minimum estimated resource of 300,000 oz, with intersections between 2m-8m grading up to 24 grams per ton. A waste dump containing a minimum of 30,000 tons grading up to 9.76 grams per ton along with a yet to be quantified tailings area which holds significant reserves of mine tailings with random sampling results exceeding 21 grams per ton. Our present priority is to establish gold production at the Ekom Eya mining site, which is expected to contribute substantially to the company's near-term growth.


As of the date of this quarterly report, we have generated no revenues but we have incurred expenses related to the drilling and exploration of Handcamp and the November Properties as well as certain preliminary work on Ekom Eya (collectively, the “Properties”).  


We have no material income and/or assets other than the Properties and have cumulative losses since inception through June 30, 2012 of approximately $132,527,681.  We are a natural resources exploration stage company, formed for the purpose of exploring and discovering mineral properties.  We are currently focused on the mining and resources sector and intend to attempt, subject to, among other factors, obtaining substantial financing, to continue to increase our holdings of gold and other precious metals and to begin processing the tailings and waste dump located at the Ekom Eya.  Our principal objective is to attempt to locate, mine and sell mineral properties and to take advantage of the increased value of precious metals, and in so doing to become an efficient and profitable, precious metals exploration and mining company.  We may also seek to enter into joint ventures with certain major mining companies rather than selling properties.  In pursuing this goal, we currently intend to concentrate any funds we are able in the future to obtain, if any, to explore areas that we believe will have mineral resources.  Our current plan is to attempt to move forward to the next stage of production on the Ekom Eya and, if we are able to raise further financing beyond the $7,300,000 discussed below, to pursue in-depth exploration of the other Properties, which consists of ground geophysics, trenching and drilling.


Plan of Operations

Our strategy is a combination of processing the waste dump and tailings on the Ekom Eya Project, to eventually further develop Handcamp and the November Properties, and to stake, explore and develop new properties in geologically promising areas and to continue making acquisitions of select properties that have been identified as economically attractive, technically and geologically sound and have significant upside potential.

  

We intend to build our business by beginning production on Ekom Eya and to continue exploration and development of the other Properties.  We may in the future seek to acquire, explore, stake and develop other gold properties and acquire producing gold properties. We plan to diversify our revenue sources, once any are established, by combining the secure and reliable revenue source of producing gold properties with the potential of gold exploration projects.  In addition, we plan to explore and stake new gold properties, acquire development stage gold exploration properties, carry out exploration programs on the acquired properties, and develop any viable gold producing properties that we discover, acquire and are able to pursue, assuming that we are able to raise the requisite financing for such activities.  We committed to examining all promising and viable properties that come to its attention with a particular interest in African and North American properties.


In order to begin processing the tailings and waste dump, we have several possible operational approaches – each requiring varying capital and equipment costs.  The primary approach will involve seeking to raise approximately $7,300,000 in financing (of which $4,700,000 would be dedicated to equipment costs).  This will allow high volume processing at Ekom Eya. Alternatively, we can begin work on a limited scale with as little as $250,000 in equipment.   This approach will involve purchasing several excavators and trucks, and have the ore transported to a third party site for processing.  The waste dump is estimated to contain 30,000 tons with reported grades up to 9.76 grams per ton and a tailings area estimated to contain 60,000 tons with sampling results as high as 21.2 grams per ton.  It is anticipated that if $7,300,000 is raised, there will be sufficient capital for us to generate positive cash flow from the Ekom Eya operations.  In the absence of raising funds in that amount, we will continue to do what preliminary work we can on Ekom Eya in anticipation of financing.   


We operate with virtually no capital. We are presently attempting to raise sufficient funds to enter into production of the Ekom Eya Project’s tailings and waste dump and fund further exploration.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to put the Ekom Eya project into production or to further develop the other Properties.




- 12 -




Our ultimate objective is to implement production, sell any mineral properties that we have been able to develop to a major mining company, or to enter into joint ventures with it.  We expect that such a company, should the opportunity arise, will in all likelihood make the decision whether to enter into a joint venture or to purchase a property in its discretion.  We expect that the price of each property will be determined by the anticipated amount and value of minerals it contains.   However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to establish a relationship of any kind with a major mining company.  


We believe that the stage at which the interest of a major mining company is likely to be elicited is very subjective and subject to numerous facts and circumstances that we cannot predict with any significant confidence.  However, we do believe that such companies have in the past become interested in a mining property based solely on the discovery of one promising drill hole having, in the opinion of such mining company, significant potential to contain substantial economic value.


Irrespective of any interest shown by such a company, if any, we do not anticipate that our own activities with respect to Handcamp, Rusty Ridge, Collier’s, North Lucky or South Lucky will extend beyond conducting a preliminary feasibility study, where such a study is defined as having (i) established that a particular mining project appears viable, and (ii) concluded that an effective method of mineral processing can be adopted and is reasonably likely, in the reasonable opinion of a qualified person, to lead to the determination that all or a part of the mineral resource can be classified as a mineral reserve.


We carried out Phase I on Handcamp, the initial phase of exploratory drilling, during the summer of 2010.  We have had the core samples obtained thereby analyzed.  Based upon that review, management is cautiously optimistic about the results and is currently in the process of determining our next steps.  However, as discussed elsewhere herein, management presently plans to concentrate on the development of Ekom Eya.


Cash Requirements

We operate with virtually no capital.  We are currently attempting to raise sufficient funds to begin processing of the Ekom Eya’s tailings and waste dump and to fund further exploration.  We estimate that we will require an additional $250,000 to continue our present development of Ekom Eya and approximately an additional $7,050,000 to begin production on the Ekom Eya site as well as for working capital.  We are in discussions with prospective investors to provide such funding and anticipate that the receipt of such funds would enable us to satisfy our cash requirements for a period of six (6) months.  We have no long term debt and have been able to meet our past financial obligations, including operational expenses, exploration expenses and acquisition costs, on a current basis.


We cannot assure you that $7,300,000 would be sufficient to enable us to fully fund our anticipated cash requirements during this period.  In addition, we cannot assure you that the requisite financing, whether over the short or long term, will be raised within the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.  Should we be unable to raise sufficient funds we may be required to curtail our operating plans if not cease them entirely.  As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or at all, in the future.


None of the above figures refers to the financing that we would have to raise in order to contemplate making acquisitions of any other gold properties. While our business strategy includes acquiring additional gold properties, if possible, we have no present intention to acquire additional properties, in large part because we do not presently have the means to make any further acquisitions.  We would have to raise additional financing over and above the sums discussed above in order to contemplate making acquisitions of any additional gold properties.


Going Concern

As of the date of this quarterly report, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flow to fund our proposed business.   


We have suffered recurring losses from operations since our inception. In addition, we have yet to generate an internal cash flow from our business operations or successfully raised the financing required to develop our proposed business. As a result of these and other factors, our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing.  The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon us and our shareholders.




- 13 -




Management’s plans with regard to these matters encompass the following actions: (i) obtaining funding from new investors to alleviate our working capital deficiency, and (ii) implementing a plan to generate sales. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to resolve our liquidity problems and increase profitability in our current business operations. However, the outcome of management’s plans cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had a cash balance of $23,096 as of the date of this quarterly report.


Cash flow from operations .

To date, we have generated no cash flow from operations.


Cash flows from shareholders .

Capital contributions provided by our parent company aggregated $971,436 as of June 30, 2012.


Should we be unable to obtain further capital contributions from Kat Exploration or otherwise raise sufficient funds, we will be required to curtail our operating plans if not cease them entirely.  Kat Exploration has extremely limited capital available.  We cannot assure you that we will receive further capital contributions from Kat Exploration in the future or otherwise generate the necessary funding to operate or develop our business.  Please see “Cash Requirements” above for our existing plans with respect to raising the capital we believe will be required.


In the event that we are able to obtain the necessary financing to move forward with our business plan, we expect that our expenses will increase significantly as we attempt to grow our business. Accordingly, the above estimates for the financing required may not be accurate and must be considered in light these circumstances.


Variables and Trends

Other than the Ekom Eya Project and the current exploration of the Handcamp, Rusty Ridge, Collier’s, North Lucky and South Lucky properties, we have no operating history with respect to our exploration, acquisition and development of gold properties.  However, Kat Exploration and all of our officers and directors have significant mining exploration, acquisition and development experience.


Commitments

As of the date of this quarterly report, our only material capital commitment was the implementation of the Ekom Eya Project and the continued funding of the exploration of the Handcamp, Rusty Ridge, Collier’s, North Lucky and South Lucky properties. We anticipate that any further capital requirements will be financed principally through the issuance of our securities. However, we cannot assure you that additional capital resources and financings will be available to us on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all.  We have no commitments to any unrelated parties.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.


Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our combined and consolidated financial statements and related notes.  We periodically evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.  Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application.  We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.




- 14 -




Business Activities. We have not yet earned any revenue from operations. Accordingly, our activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Enterprise” as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises” (“ SFAS No. 7 ”). Among the disclosures required by SFAS No. 7 are that our financial statements be identified as those of a development stage operation, and that the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows disclose activity since the date of our inception.

  

Basis of Presentation. Our financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United State of America, whereby revenues are recognized in the period earned and expenses when incurred. We follow SFAS No. 7 in preparing our financial statements.

  

Management’s Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Comprehensive Income (Loss). We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to us during the period covered in the financial statements.

  

Long-Lived Assets.  In accordance with SFAS No. 144, we review and evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, including those noted above, we compare the assets’ carrying amounts against the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets over their estimated useful lives. If the carrying amounts are greater than the undiscounted cash flows, the fair values of those assets are estimated by discounting the projected cash flows. Any excess of the carrying amounts over the fair values are recorded as impairments in that fiscal period.

  

Statement of Cash Flows.  For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid investments (i.e., investments which, when purchased, have original maturities of three months or less) to be cash equivalents.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents.  The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates the recorded amounts because of the liquidity and short-term nature of these items.   


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe that any future adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.



ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.


Not Applicable


ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Each of our principal executive and principal financial officer has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a - 15(e) and 15d - 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on their evaluation, each such person concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that applied as of December 31, 2011 and continued to apply as of June 30, 2012.  Our management intends, during the 2012 fiscal year, to design and implement processes and procedures that will provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.




- 15 -




Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  Our management has evaluated whether any change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the last fiscal quarter.  Based on that evaluation, management concluded that there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the relevant period that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
