PART I

ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

History

Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana. The Company ceased significant operations in 1942.  

Between 1987 and 1996 the Company had been unable to have regular shareholder meetings because mailings to the addresses of shareholders of record were undeliverable because they were inadequate, incomplete or the shareholder was deceased or had moved and failed to change their addresses on the records of the Company.   The last shareholder meeting, where there was a quorum  present, had been held in 1987, which meeting was possible only because a court appointed a trustee to vote the shares of missing shareholders to satisfy the quorum  requirements for a valid meeting.

September, 1996, the Superior Court of Washington for Spokane County appointed an  independent  trustee to represent and vote on behalf of the Company’s missing shareholders at a Special Meeting of Shareholders. The appointment of the trustee was made necessary because the Company had been unable to have regular shareholder meetings since 1987 due to the fact that the addresses of the holders of approximately 76% of the Company’s were inaccurate.  Prior to the September, 1966 Special Meeting of Shareholders a Proxy Statement containing, among other items, a Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders,  complying with the notice information requirements of Section 222(a) of the Delaware General Corporate Law was mailed to shareholders within the time frame established by Section 222(b) of the Delaware General Corporate Law. In addition to the mailing of notice of the Special Meeting of Shareholders to the shareho lders of record, the Company also published notice of the meeting in newspapers in Washington and Idaho in the two counties were many of the Company’s shareholders were last known to reside. Management having determined that the Company’s notice process had conformed to and complied with Section 222 of the Delaware General Corporation Act held a Special Meeting of Shareholders  held on September 20, 1996, with the Trustee voting  in favor of management’s proposal, the  plan to amend the Articles of Incorporation and a related plan of recapitalization was approved.  Pursuant to the plan of recapitalization:  (i) the capital stock of the Company would be divided into two classes of common stock, Class A Voting Common Stock (“Class A Stock”) and Class B Nonvoting Common Stock (“Class B Stock”);  (ii) those stockholders of the Company who could be located would receive one share of Class A Stock for each issued and currently outstanding share of ca pital stock then owned by them; and (iii) those stockholders of the Company who could not be located would receive one share of Class B Stock, which would be held in trust for their benefit, for each issued and outstanding share of capital stock then owned by them; (iv) should any holder of Class B Stock (or his or her heirs or beneficiaries) be located or make themselves known  to the Company after initiation of the Plan, the trustee was authorized to issue such shareholders shares of Class A Stock in exchange for an equal number of Class B Stock.  See Note 5 to financial statements.

On May 17, 2007 the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with  Timberline Resources Company, an Idaho public company, for the sale of its remaining mining claims, consisting of six patented mining claims covering both surface and mineral rights, two

2

patented mining claims (mineral only), eight unpatented claims located in Silver Bow County, Montana, known as the Butte Highlands Gold Project and certain related water rights and all papers, documents and instruments in the Company’s possession, custody or control relating or pertaining to the mining claims and water rights and water rights associated with certain permits issued by the State of Montana .  The Company received $405,000 in cash and 108,000 shares of Timberline Resources common stock valued at $2.00 per share, for a total sale price of $621,000. The sale resulted in a gain of $601,378. The securities were restricted from sale for one year from the date of acquisition of May 17, 2007.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Timberline  agreed to assume and discharge, and indemnify and hold our Company  harmless against all debts, claims, liabilities and obligations under any lease or other agreement relating directly to purchased assets. Timberline expressly assumed all debts, claims, liabilities and obligations pertaining to the assets that arise from or were asserted from or after the closing of the sale, including but not limited to:

(a)

Debts, claims, liabilities or obligations arising or pertaining to any future required assessment work of the mining claims and

(b)

Debts, claims, liabilities, or obligations arising or pertaining to Timberlines exploration or development of the mining claims.

In addition, Timberline expressly assumed all of the following debts, claims, liabilities and obligations pertaining to the mining claims, whether they arose before or were asserted after the closing date of the purchase including

(a)

Debts, claims, liabilities or obligations arising of pertaining to any violation or alleged violation of any environmental laws and debts, claims, liabilities or obligations arising or pertaining to any Environmental permit.

Under the terms of the agreement our Company acknowledged that it had been advised that it may be liable under Environmental laws for historical mining activities on the mining claims which comprised a portion of the assets purchased by Timberline. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Timberline expressly assumed such liabilities.

Since the date of the closing of the Agreement, the Company no longer holds any mineral properties or claims. The Board of Directors intends to seek out an appropriate business opportunity and has not limited its search to any particular industry. Management believes it can identify opportunities in several sectors and will proceed with the appropriate diligence to create value for the shareholders. Our business is conducted from the office of our President, Paul Hatfield, in Spokane, Washington.

Because we have no operations and only nominal assets we are what the Securities and Exchange Commission defines as a shell company. At such time as we cease to be a shell company we will need to file a Form 8-K that contains the information that would be required in an initial registration statement on Form 10 to register a class of securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We will be required to file the Form 8-K within four business days after the closing of the transaction that results in our no longer being considered a shell company

We are registering our shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) for the purpose of becoming a reporting company.  The Company believes that it will be better able to finance its operations if it is a reporting company.  Management believes the benefits of becoming a

3

reporting company include the ability to obtain support of market makers, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and providing liquidity for all shareholders by qualifying to list on the NASDAQ supervised OTC Bulletin Board.

ITEM 1A

 RISK FACTORS

The Company’s business is subject to numerous risk factors, including the following:

1.

Because our Company was historically engaged in the mineral exploration industry, there exists the possibility that the Company may have environmental liability.  

There can be no assurance that the Company may not at some future date be deemed to have environmental liabilities as a consequence of prior operations in the mining industry.

The Company’s most recent sale of its mining claims contained provisions for the assumption of, and indemnification for, environmental liabilities, In the event that environmental claims were asserted against the buyer of the Company’s mining claims, there can be no assurance that such company would have the financial resources to satisfy such claims. There can be no assurance a governmental authority would not look to our Company to pay for the unsatisfied amount of any environmental liabilities. This could have a materially adverse consequence to our Company.

Further, neither the sale of the mining claims, nor the buyer’s assumption of environmental liabilities, precludes a governmental authority from asserting claims of environmental liability directly against our Company at some future date.  In such case the Company would be forced to seek indemnification from the buyer of the mining claims. The potential cost of seeking such indemnification, or the buyer’s inability to satisfy any claim for indemnification, could have a materially adverse financial consequence to our Company.

2.

The Company has had no revenues or earnings from operations.

The Company has no significant assets or financial resources.  The Company will be dependent the acquisition of an operating company in order for it to generate revenues or earnings.

3.

You should not rely on an investment in our common stock to provide dividend income.

We have never paid any dividends and we do not plan to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

4.

Our common stock is quoted on the Pink Sheets.  

Trading in stock quoted in the Pink Sheets is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects.  This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance.  Moreover, the Pink Sheets is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the Pink Sheets is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system or a stock exchange such as the Amex.  Accordingly, shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of the shares.

4

5.

Our stock is a penny stock and subject to certain restrictions on sales practices on broker-dealers

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors.”  The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 jointly with their spouse.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and th e nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  The bid and offer quotations and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.  In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules.  Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities.  We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the NASD has adopted rules that require, in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer.  Prior to recommending speculative, low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.  Under interpretations of these rules, the NASD believes there is a high probability that speculative, low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers.  The NASD requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock.

6.

Lack of Liquidity

Because the Company is a shell company, shareholders holding unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock will not be able to avail themselves of Rule 144 for the resale of such restricted securities.

5

7.

Because we have no operating business we are considered a ‘blank check” or “shell” company.

·

Because the Company is a shell company, shareholders holding unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock will not be able to avail themselves of Rule 144 for the resale of such restricted securities.

·

Restrictions on the resale of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock due to its shell company status may make it difficult, more expensive or impossible for the Company to finance any business opportunity.

·

The Company will be required to file current “Form 10 information” with the Securities and Exchange Commission within four days of any business acquisition. This may increase the cost of such an acquisition or  preclude some business opportunities entirely.

·

Until such time as the Company ceases to be shell Company it will be required to comply with Rule 419 under the Securities Act of 1933. This rule governs the offering of securities by “blank check” companies. Our Company is deemed to be a “blank check” because it is a development stage company that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person, and is issuing “penny stock.” Rule 419 imposes additional requirements on a blank check company which seeks to offer its securities . Compliance with Rule 419 may make any such contemplated offering more expensive to the Company, more difficult to find potential investors and more time consuming to effect a business transaction. Such requirements include the escrow of the proceeds of any offering, the obligation of the Company to provide, and the right of the purchaser to receive, information rega rding an acquisition, including the requirement that purchasers confirm in writing their investment in the Company after an acquisition candidate is identified and the probable requirement of a post-effective amendment to the offering document setting forth information about the acquisition target  that would be required in the applicable form of registration statement. Compliance with Rule 419 will increase the cost of any such offering, may make investment in the Company less attractive to certain investors and may make the Company less attractive to potential acquisition candidates.

Employees

We currently have no employees.  We intend to utilize the services of outside consultants and contractors to provide additional services to the Company.

Competition

The Company is and will remain an insignificant participant among the firms that are seeking to acquire an interest in a business opportunity.  Most established venture capital and financial concerns have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and technical expertise than the Company.  In view of the Company’s limited financial resources and limited management availability, the Company will continue to be at a significant disadvantage compared to the Company’s competitors.

6

Regulation

The Company’s activities in the United States are subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, production, labor standards, occupational health and mine safety, control of toxic substances, and other matters involving environmental protection and taxation.  It is possible that future changes in these laws or regulations could have a significant impact on the Company’s business, causing those activities to be economically reevaluated at that time.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana. The Company is inactive, having sold the last of its mining claims in 2007.

We intend to acquire an interest in a business seeking the perceived advantages of a publicly registered corporation.  We will not restrict our search to any specific business or industry, and the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. The Company may seek a business opportunity with an entity which has recently commenced operations, wishes to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital to expand into new products or markets, develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes.  The Company may acquire assets and/or establish subsidiaries in various businesses, or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.  Business opportunities may be available in many different industries at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

Management of the Company, while not experienced in matters relating to the new direction of the Company, will rely primarily upon their own efforts to accomplish the business purposes.  The Company does not anticipate a significant change in the number of employees during the next 12 months. It is not anticipated that any outside consultants or advisors, other than the Company's legal counsel, will be utilized to effectuate its business purposes described herein. During the next twelve months, the Company expects to be able to satisfy its cash requirements, and does not foresee the need to raise additional capital during this period.

The Company is voluntarily registering its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  After completion of this registration, it is the Company’s intention to obtain a listing on the NASDAQ Supervised OTC Bulletin Board.  The Company believes that listing on the OTCBB will facilitate the Company’s efforts to obtain additional equity financing.

Result of Operations for period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the period ended September 30, 2008

During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, the Company had a net loss of $7,757 and $37,795 respectively compared to a net loss of $29,956 and 38,272 during the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008.  This represents a decreased net loss of $ 22,199 during the three month period ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net loss is attributable to decreased professional fees and general and administrative expenses over the respective three month period ended September 30, 2009.

7

Total operating expenses decreased to $7,791 during the three month period ended September 30, 2009 from $29,478 for the comparable period ended September 30, 2008.  The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased professional fees and general and administrative expenses over the respective three month period ended September 30, 2008.

8

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s working capital at September 30, 2009 was $196,068 compared to working capital of $233,531 at December 31, 2008. Working capital decreased primarily due to the current year expenses related to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 and the fact that the Company had no income from operations.

Net cash used in operating activities was $41,298 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 compared with $94,541 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008.

Cash flow from investing activities was $0 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $0 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008.

Cash flow from financing activities was $0 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 compared with $0 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009.

As a result, cash decreased by $41,298 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. The Company had cash of $195,745  as of September 30, 2009. It will not be necessary for the Company to raise additional capital to continue its business activities in 2009.

Year ended December 31, 2008 compared to year ended December 31, 2007.

Result of Operations

During 2007 the Company sold all of its remaining mining claims, consisting of eight patented claims and eight unpatented claims to Timberline Resources.  The Company received $405,000 in cash and 108,000 shares of Timberline Resources common stock valued at $2.00 per share, for a total sale price of $621,000. The sale resulted in a gain of $601,378.

During 2008, the Company had a net loss of $211,859 compared to net income of $346,964 during 2007.  This represents a decrease of $558,823 over the year ended December 31, 2007. This decrease is due to the sale of the mining claims, which occurred in 2007, and an other than temporary impairment of investments.

Total operating expenses increased to $51,359 in 2008 from $33,392 in 2007.  The increase is primarily due to professional fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Registration Statement and an increase of general and administrative fees in the amount of $11,753.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s working capital at December 31, 2008 was $233,531 compared to working capital of $279,775 at December 31, 2007. Working capital decreased primarily due to the current year expenses and the fact that the Company had no income from operations.

Net cash used in operating activities was $103,655 in 2008 compared with $142,335 in 2007. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in income taxes expensed.

Cash flow from investing activities was $0 in 2008 compared to $404,457 in 2007. The decrease was due to the cash received from the sale of mining claims in 2007.

9

Cash flow from financing activities was $0 in 2008 compared with $35,000 in 2007. This decrease was due to no financing activities in 2008 and the proceeds from the exercise of stock options in 2007.

As a result, cash decreased by $103,655 in 2008. The Company had cash of $237,043 as of December 31, 2008.

The Company estimates that the annual costs associated with being a reporting public company will be approximately $47,000. This amount is comprised of accounting fees of approximately  $38,500 and legal fees of $7,500.   In addition the Company estimates that it will incur approximately $10,000 per year to seek a business opportunity to acquire and up to an additional $50,000 to acquire any such business opportunity once identified.  It will not be necessary for the Company to raise additional capital to continue its business activities in the next twelve months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no preliminary agreements or understandings between the Company and its officers and directors or affiliates or lending institutions with respect to any loan agreements.

ITEM 3.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company does not hold an interest in any properties. The Company historically owned and operated mining properties near Butte, Montana. Operation of these properties was suspended in 1942. During 1993, the Company entered into a lease with options to sell the properties to Orvana Resources Corporation (“ORC”) and Orvana Minerals Corporation (“OMC”), a Canadian Corporation. The agreement also provided for a lease with an option to purchase eight patented lode-mining claims and 109 unpatented mining claims together with all mineral and other rights. The total option price was $2,000,000 in Canadian currency with cash and stock received annually in agreed upon amounts.

During December 1998, the Company amended the lease option with ORC and OMC to a total option price of $1,685,000 in Canadian Currency. During the year ended December 31, 2000, negotiations to amend the lease failed and final payment was received during the year ended December 31, 2002 in the amount of $31,087. On May 17, 2007 the Company sold all of its remaining mining claims, consisting of eight patented claims and eight unpatented claims to Timberline Resources.

Board Committees

The entire Board of Directors presently serves as our Audit, Nominating and Compensation Committees and will continue to serve in such capacity until said committees are established.  We have not yet adopted a Code of Ethics for our Executive Officers but intend to do so during the second quarter of 2009.

Conflicts of Interest

Officers and Directors have a fiduciary duty to our shareholders and owe the Company a duty to advance the Company’s business interests when the opportunity to do so arises. As a result, Officers and Directors are prohibited from taking personal advantage of certain business opportunities in which the Company may be interested. This so-called “corporate opportunity doctrine” is complicated and it is not possible to clearly define all of the business opportunities which belong or could be of

12

interest to the Company and what business opportunities may be taken advantage of personally by Officers or Directors. The most common types of situations falling within this corporate opportunity doctrine prohibit Officers and Directors from: (i) personally taking advantage of any business opportunity that typically would be pursued by, or would be of interest to, the Company; (ii) personally taking advantage of any other business opportunity that the Company may want to take advantage of if the opportunity is discovered using Company property, business contacts or information, or that the Officer becomes aware of because he or she works for the Company (or that a Director becomes aware of in his or her capacity as a director of the Company).

Legal Proceedings

No Director, or person nominated to become a Director or Executive Officer, has been involved in any legal action involving the Company during the past five years.

ITEM 6.  EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Doris Prater and Susan Robinson-Trudell each received a $500 annual directors’ fee during 2007 and 2008. Mr. Hatfield receives no compensation for serving as a director of the Company. None of the Company’s officers received any compensation for serving in such capacity during 2008.

ITEM 7.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

There have been no transactions or series of transactions, or proposed transactions during the last two years to which the Registrant is a party in which any Director, nominee for election as a Director, executive officer or beneficial owner of five percent or more of the Registrant’s common stock, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest exceeding $60,000.

Neither Paul A. Hatfield nor Susan Robinson-Trudell are independent directors. Doris Prater is the only independent member of the Board of Directors.

ITEM 8.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Upon formation in 1929, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for mineral claims. During 1937, the Company’s total authorized common stock was increased to 2,500,000 under a reorganization plan.

During 1996, due to a long period of inactivity, stockholders representing approximately 76% of the outstanding common stock of the Company could not be located. The Company obtained an order from the Superior Court of Spokane County, Washington appointing a “trustee for the benefit of those stockholders who cannot be located”. After obtaining this order, the Company adopted a plan of reorganization. Under this plan of reorganization, the Company increased authorized common stock to 25,000,000 shares of which 23,292,907 were designated as Class A Common Stock (voting) and 1,707,093 were designated as Class B common stock (nonvoting). All of the Company’s locatable stockholders received share-for-share Class A Common Stock. All of the Company’s unlocated stockholders received share-for-share Class B Common Stock, which is held in trust for missing shareholders pending knowledge of their location. There are currently 1,31 7,948 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,663,941 shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding.

All of the Class A Common Stock authorized has equal voting rights and powers without restrictions in preference.  All shares of Class A Common Stock are equal to each other with respect to voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights.  Owners of shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share of Class A Common Stock owned at any shareholders’ meeting.  Holders of shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor; and upon liquidation, are entitled to participate pro rata in a distribution of assets available for such a distribution to shareholders.

If a previously unlocated recorded owner or beneficiary of a record owner is subsequently located, they must present satisfactory evidence and presentation of a share certificate or an “Affidavit of Loss” with an agreement to indemnify the Company for any future damage as a result of the certificate having been sold or transferred but not lost. Upon satisfaction of these requirements, Class A Common Stock will be issued share-for-share in exchange for the Class B Common Stock. The relevant shares of Class B nonvoting common stock will then be cancelled.

There are no conversion, preemptive, or other subscription rights or privileges with respect to any shares.  Our Class A Voting Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Class A Voting Common Stock voting in an election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to do so.  In such event, the holders of the remaining shares aggregating less than fifty percent (50%) would not be able to elect any directors.

Transfer Agent

We utilize the services of Columbia Stock Transfer Company, 601 East Seltice Way, Suite 202, Post Falls, Idaho 83854, as our transfer agent and registrar.

ITEM 5.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that to the full extent that the Delaware General Corporation Law, as now existing or as it may be amended at a future date, permits the limitation or elimination of the liabilities of directors, a director of the corporation shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director;  However, this does not limit or eliminate the liability of a director of the Company for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law or for any transaction for which such director derived an improper personal benefit. Any amendment to or repeal of the Articles of Incorporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Company for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

We have the power to indemnify a director, officer, or former director or officer of the Company, or any person who may have served at our request as a director or officer of another corporation, against

15

expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, civil or criminal, in which he or she becomes a party by reason of being or having been such director or officer, to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and our Bylaws, as now existing or amended at a future date.

The Company, to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and our Bylaws, also has the power to enter into an agreement to advance expenses and litigation costs of any director or former director, without making any determination of the director’s good faith or reasonable beliefs with regard to the lawfulness of his or her activity. The indemnification so authorized shall not protect or purport to protect any director against liability to the Company or to its stockholders to which her or she otherwise would be subject by reason of intentional misconduct, a knowing violation of the law or in connection with any transaction with respect to which it is finally adjudged that such director personally received a benefit in money, property or services to which that director was not legally entitled. The indemnification so authorized shall continue in effect as it relates to all acts or omissions committed while the d irector held his or her position, notwithstanding his or her subsequent resignation or removal from that position, and the indemnification shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of that person or his or her estate.

Public Policy

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS

Butte Highlands Mining Company

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Butte Highlands Mining Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from May 18, 2007 (inception of development stage) to December 31, 2008.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presen tation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Butte Highlands Mining Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from May 18, 2007 (inception of development stage) to December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, certain errors related to the recognition of impairment in investments, as of December 31, 2008 were discovered by management of the Company during the current year. Accordingly, adjustments have been made to net loss and other comprehensive income to correct this error.

BUTTE HIGHLANDS MINING COMPANY

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana.  The Company was reorganized in October 1996 for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties.  As of the date of reorganization, stockholders representing approximately 76% of the outstanding capital stock could not be located.  In order to obtain the quorum necessary for the special meetings, the Company obtained an order from the Superior Court of Spokane County, Washington appointing a trustee for the benefit of those stockholders which could not be located.  See Note 5.

As of May 17, 2007 the Company no longer holds any mineral properties or claims, and has reentered the development stage.  The Board of Directors intends to seek out an appropriate business opportunity and has not limited its search to any particular industry. Management believes it can identify opportunities in several sectors and will proceed with the appropriate diligence to create value for the shareholders. Operations are primarily conducted from the Company headquarters in Spokane, Washington.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of Butte Highlands Mining Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Accounting Method

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Marketable Securities

The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS No. 115”). Under SFAS No. 115, debt securities and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values are to be classified in three categories:

Held to Maturity – the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Amounts are reported at amortized cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

Trading Securities – bought principally for purpose of selling them in the near term. Amounts are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings.

22

BUTTE HIGHLANDS MINING COMPANY

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008

Available for Sale – not classified in one of the above categories. Amounts are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholders’ equity.

At this time, the Company holds securities classified as available for sale. See “Note 4,  Investments” for further details.

Earnings Per Share

Basic net income/loss per share was computed by dividing the net income/loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.  The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time they were outstanding.  The Company presents EPS on a combined basis because Class B common stock has all of the rights and privileges of Class A common stock, except for voting rights. See Note 1 and 5.  Additionally, if the two class method were used the EPS would be identical.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers cash, certificates of deposit, and debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash in one commercial account at a major financial institution. Although the financial institution is considered creditworthy and has not experienced any losses on its deposits, at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 the Company’s cash balance exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits by $0 and $240,698   respectively.

Impaired Asset Policy

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lives Assets” (SFAS No. 144”).  SFAS 144 replaces SFAS 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.”  This standard establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued operations.  Statement 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations.  The Company adopted SFAS 144, which has not had a material impact on the financial statements.

Property and Equipment

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Major renewals and betterments are capitalized.  When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations.  Depreciation expense for the periods ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $374 and $443, respectively.

BUTTE HIGHLANDS MINING COMPANY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," include cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at December 31, 2008.

SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements(“SFAS 157), define fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1.  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3.  Unobservable inputs in which there is little of no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company measures its investments at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 4

The following table represents our assets by level measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2008.

Derivative Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 133”), as amended by SFAS No. 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133”, and SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities”, and SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”.  These statements establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.  They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities

Accounting for Stock Options and Warrants Granted to Employees and Nonemployees

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensations.” (SFAS 123R) This statement supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance. This statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. This statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This statement does not change the accounting guidance for share based payment transactio ns with parties other than employees provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R). This statement does not address the accounting for employee share ownership plans, which are subject to AICPA Statement of Position 93-6, “Employers’ Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.” The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123(R) which measures compensation costs based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes cost over the service period.

Restatement

Financials statements from prior periods have been restated in the current quarter, See Note 9.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60” (SFAS 163). This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how FASB No. 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. This Statement requires t hat disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance of this Statement. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted.  The adoption of this statement will have no effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, as it is does it is not an Insurance Enterprise.

In May, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (SFAS No. 162). This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). The sources of accounting principles that are generally accepted are categorized in descending order of authority as follows:

a.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS No. 161). This statement changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160 ("SFAS 160"), “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, this statement requires that the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity.  This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (that is, January 1, 2009, for entities with calendar year-ends). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The effective date of this Statement is the same as that of the related Statement 141(R).

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R, “Business Combinations”, (SFAS No. 141R”). This statement changes the accounting for business combinations. Under this statement, an acquiring entity is required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. This statement changes the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. This statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, any business combinations we engage in will be recorded and disclosed following existing generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) until January 1, 2009. We expect SFAS No. 141R will have an impact on accounting fo r business combinations once adopted but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions at that time.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 159”). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begi ns after November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this statement had no material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations

Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 109”).  Under the approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an asset. See Note 8.

NOTE 3 - MINING CLAIMS

The Company historically owned and operated mining properties near Butte, Montana.  Operation of these properties was suspended in 1942.  During 1993, the Company entered into a lease with options to sell the properties to Orvana Resources Corporation (“ORC) and Orvana Minerals Corporation (“OMC”), a Canadian Corporation.  The agreement also provided for a lease with an option to purchase eight patented lode-mining claims and 109 unpatented mining claims together with all mineral and other rights.  The total option price was $2,000,000 in Canadian currency with cash and stock received annually in agreed upon amounts.

During December 1998, the Company amended the lease option with ORC and OMC to a total option price of $1,685,000 in Canadian currency.  During the year ended December 31, 2000, negotiations to amend the lease failed and final payment was received during the year ended December 31, 2002 in the amount of $31,087.  The Company recognized revenue from this lease as it was received.

On May 17, 2007 the Company sold all of its remaining mining claims, consisting of eight patented claims and eight unpatented claims to Timberline Resources.  The Company received $405,000 in cash and 108,000 shares of Timberline Resources common stock valued at $2.00 per share, for a total sale price of $621,000. The sale resulted in a gain of $601,378. The securities were restricted from sale for one year from the date of acquisition of May 17, 2007.

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS

The Company holds securities classified as available for sale. Amounts are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholders’ equity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method; realized gains and losses resulting from such sales are included in investment income.

Investment securities are reviewed for impairment in accordance with FASB Statement No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” and FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 115-1 “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” We periodically review our investments for indications of other than temporary impairment considering many factors, including the extent and duration to which a security's fair value has been less than its cost, overall economic and market conditions, and the financial condition and specific prospects for the issuer. Impairment of investment securities results in a charge to income when a market decline below cost is other than temporary.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008

As a result of the Company’s assessment. the Company determined that the decline in market value of Timberline Resources was an other-than-temporary impairment.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an other than temporary impairment charge of $165,240 at December 31, 2008, the Company recognized an unrealized gain for the year ended December 31, 2007 of $232,200.

The following summarizes the securities available for sale at December 31, 2008.  

	# of				Market
Security	Shares		Cost		Value

The fair value of securities is determined by quoted market prices.  

NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK

Upon formation in 1929, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for mineral claims.  During 1937, the Company’s total authorized common stock was increased to 2,500,000 under a reorganization plan.

During 1996, due to a long period of inactivity, stockholders representing approximately 76% of the outstanding common stock of the Company could not be located.  The Company obtained an order from the Superior Court of Spokane County, Washington appointing a “trustee for the benefit of those stockholders who cannot be located”.  After obtaining this order, the Company adopted a plan of reorganization.  Under this plan of reorganization, the Company increased authorized common stock to 25,000,000 shares of which 23,292,907 were designated as Class A voting common stock and 1,707,093 were designated as Class B nonvoting common stock.  All of the Company’s locatable stockholders received share-for-share Class A voting common stock.  All of the Company’s unlocated stockholders received share-for-share Class B nonvoting common stock, which is held in trust for missing shareholders pending knowledge of their location.

If a previously unlocated recorded owner or beneficiary of a record owner is subsequently located, they must present satisfactory evidence and presentation of a share certificate or an “Affidavit of Loss” with an agreement to indemnify the Company for any future damage as a result of the certificate having been sold or transferred but not lost.  Upon satisfaction of these requirements, Class A voting common stock will be issued share-for-share in exchange for the Class B nonvoting common stock.  The relevant shares of Class B nonvoting common stock will then be cancelled.  As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, there were 1,317,948 and 1,317,948 shares of Class A voting coming stock issued and outstanding, respectively and 1,663,941 shares of Class B nonvoting common stock issued and outstanding.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued 500,000 shares of Class A common stock to two directors for $35,000 in cash, according to the Company’s stock option plan.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock.

NOTE 7 – COMMON STOCK OPTIONS

During September 1996, the Company’s stockholders approved a stock option plan whereby directors, officers and key employees may purchase 500,000 shares of Class A voting common stock at $0.07 per share.  Although the Company’s outstanding options would have expired on September 30, 2003, the Company’s stockholders voted to extend the options for an additional four years.  All outstanding options were exercised on May 30, 2007.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

At December 31, 2008, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $211,900, which begin to expire in the year 2028. The change in the allowance account from December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2008 was $13,648

Effective November 1, 2007, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operation or liquidity.  

NOTE 9 – CORRECTION OF AN ERROR

The previously issued financial statements for December 31, 2008, have been restated to correct an error in the recognition of impairment in investments.  Upon further review the Company determined that the decrease in market value of its Timberline Resources investment was other-than-temporary.  The effect of the correction was to increase other comprehensive income by $165,240 and increase net loss by $165,240.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Butte Highlands Mining Company (hereinafter “Butte” or “the Company”) was incorporated in May 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of exploring and mining the Butte Highland’s (Only Chance) Mine, south of Butte, Montana.  The Company was reorganized in October 1996 for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties.  As of the date of reorganization, stockholders representing approximately 76% of the outstanding capital stock could not be located.  In order to obtain the quorum necessary for the special meetings, the Company obtained an order from the Superior Court of Spokane County, Washington appointing a trustee for the benefit of those stockholders which could not be located.  

As of May 17, 2007 the Company had disposed of all of its historical mineral properties or claims, and has reentered the development stage.  The Board of Directors intends to seek out an appropriate business opportunity and has not limited its search to any particular industry. Management believes it can identify opportunities in several sectors and will proceed with the appropriate diligence to create value for the shareholders. Operations are primarily conducted from the Company headquarters in Spokane, Washington.

The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein includes all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.  Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of Butte Highlands Mining Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value .. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities.  The guidance provided in this Update is effective for the first reporting period beginning after issuance. The adoption of this statement will have no material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification^TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 , which is codified in FASB ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105”). ASC 105 establishes the Codification as the source of authoritative GAAP in the United States (the “GAAP hierarchy”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Once the Codification is in effect, all of its content will carry the same level of authority and the GAAP hierarchy will be modified to include only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. ASC 105 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted the requirements of ASC 105 in the third quarter of 2009; the adoption had no material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS No. 167”), which amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments will significantly affect the overall consolidation analysis under FASB ASC 810, Consolidation and requires an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity.

SFAS No. 167 has not yet been codified and in accordance with ASC 105, remains authoritative guidance until such time that it is integrated in the FASB ASC. SFAS No. 167 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2009, early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this Update will have no material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In June, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 ” (“SFAS 166”). This Statement removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity Statement 140 and removes the exception from applying Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, to qualifying special-purpose entities.  

SFAS No. 166 has not yet been codified and in accordance with ASC 105, remains authoritative guidance until such time that it is integrated in the FASB ASC. SFAS No. 166 is effective for financial asset transfers occurring after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2009 and early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement will have no material affect on the financial statements. The adoption of this statement will have no material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In May, 2009, FASB issued ASC 855 Subsequent Events which establishes principles and requirements for subsequent events. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 855, the Company currently evaluates subsequent events through the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Major renewals and betterments are capitalized.  When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations.  Depreciation expense for the periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was $203 and $186, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50, include cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at September 30, 2009.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  FASB ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

·

Level 1.  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

·

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

·

Level 3.  Unobservable inputs in which there is little of no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company measures its investments at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 3.

Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition ..  Under the approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5 to allow recognition of such an asset. See Note 5.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS

The Company holds securities classified as available for sale. Amounts are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholders’ equity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method; realized gains and losses resulting from such sales are included in investment income.

Investment securities are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 320-10 Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. We periodically review our investments for indications of other than temporary impairment considering many factors, including the extent and duration to which a security's fair value has been less than its cost, overall economic and market conditions, and the financial condition and specific prospects for the issuer. Impairment of investment securities results in a charge to income when a market decline below cost is other than temporary.

Unrealized gains and losses are recorded on the income statement as other comprehensive income (loss) and also on the balance sheet as other comprehensive income. The Company recognized an unrealized gain for the period ended September 30, 2009 of $28,080 and an unrealized loss for the period ended September 30, 2008 of $264,600.

The following summarizes the securities available for sale at September 30, 2009.

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes.

Significant components of the deferred tax assets for the periods ended September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are as follows:
