Note 1 Nature of Operations

Nature of Operations

Gold Swap Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of New York on July 13, 2010.

The Company intends to purchase precious metals and second-hand jewelry for refining and resale.

Note 2 Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information.

The financial information as of December 31, 2010 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form S-1 for the period ended December 31, 2010.  The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form S-1, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Plan of Operations for the period from July 13, 2010 (Inception) to December 31, 2010.

Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The interim results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Development Stage

The Company's unaudited interim financial statements are presented as those of a development stage enterprise. Activities during the development stage primarily include equity based financing and further implementation of the business plan. The Company has not generated any revenues since inception.  The Company has not clearly identified how it will operate its business, only that it will explore commercial feasibility.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company intends to operate in an industry that is subject to rapid change. The Company's operations will be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks associated with a development stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. Also, see Note 4 regarding going concern matters.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

●estimated fair value of share based payments; and
●estimated valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, due to continuing and expected future losses

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.  The Company had no cash equivalents at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
 
The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits.  At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were no balances that exceeded the federally insured limit.

Share Based Payments

Generally, all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights, are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, and based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable. The expense resulting from share-based payments are recorded as a component of general and administrative expense.

Net Loss per Share Calculation

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The Company has no common stock equivalents.

Since the Company reflected a net loss, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents, if outstanding, would have been anti-dilutive. A separate computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 4 Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $43,470 and net cash used in operations of $43,470 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company is in the development stage and has not generated any revenues since inception.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on Management's plans, which currently includes commencement of operations and partial reliance upon related party debt or equity.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 5 Fair Value

Fair value is the price that would be received from m selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact business and considers assumptions that marketplace participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.

Notes to Financial Statements

The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy for measurements of fair value as follows:

Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
 
Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company's financial instruments consisted primarily of cash and accounts payable. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments generally approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

Note 6 Stockholders’ Equity

From July 13, 2010 (Inception) to December 31, 2010, the Company issued the following shares:


Type
 
Quantity
   
Valuation
   
Value per share
 
Cash
    9,131,200     $ 51,560     $ 0.005 - 0.05  
Services – related parties
    21,500,000       1,075,000       0.05  
      30,631,200     $ 1,126,560     $ 0.005 - 0.05  

In connection with stock issued for services, the Company determined fair value based upon recent cash offerings with third parties, which was the most readily available evidence.

Item 2.                      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

As used in this Form 10-Q, references to “Gold Swap,” Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Gold Swap Inc. unless the context otherwise indicates.

Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q (the “Report”). This Report contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Overview

We are focused on the business of direct-from-consumer, procurement and aggregation of precious metals to be recycled.  We intend to utilize consumer oriented advertising efforts to solicit individuals interested in liquidating unwanted jewelry and other items containing precious metals.  Through a global platform, we will facilitate an end-to-end consumer solution, from acquisition through liquidation. We intend to utilize a low cost, highly scalable and flexible business model that will allows us to quickly and efficiently adapt to entry into new markets, changes in economic conditions, supply and demand levels and other similar factors.
 
Plan of Operation

Over the next twelve months, the Company intends to focus on the following activities:

·  
the Company will locate and enter into agreements with one or more refineries;
·  
solicits individuals interested in selling unwanted items containing precious metals;
·  
provides those individuals with the means and materials necessary to send those items in to the refineries; and
·  
derives profits from the spread between the scrap price and the spot price.
 
We have no day-to-day operations other than insuring that the timelines set forth below are achieved.

Results of Operations

Revenues

The Company is in its development stage and did not generate any revenues during the period from July 13, 2010 (inception) through September 30, 2011.

Total operating expenses
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 general and administrative expenses were $17,719 and $43,470, respectively. General and administrative expenses consists mainly of professional fees. 
 
Net loss
 
Net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was $17,719 as compared to the net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 of $450. The increase in the net loss was primarily due to professional fees incurred.
 
During the period from July 13, 2010 (inception) to September 30, 2011, general and administrative expenses were $1,121,975 as compared to general and administrative expenses of $450 for the period from July 13, 2010 (inception) to September 30, 2010. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of the compensation expense of $1,075,000 representing the issuance of an aggregate of 21,500,000 shares to the officers and directors in July 2010.  
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of September 30, 2011, the Company had no cash equivalents. We do not have sufficient funds to effectuate our plans with respect the Company’s proposed operation as a purchaser of precious metals and second-hand jewelry for refining and resale over the next twelve months. We will need to seek additional capital for the purpose of financing our marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company. The Company currently has no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. The officers and directors have orally agreed to lend funds to the Company in the event capital is required for the operations of the Company. However, there is no guarantee that our officers and directors will lend us the funds we need to commence operations. There is no minimum or maximum amount of funds that the officers and directors have agreed to lend; since each of Messrs. Schlossberg, Ptalis and Mats are committed to ensuring that the Company can operate its business, they have each agreed to be responsible for this Company's operating expenses for the next 12 months if outside financing is not available. Notwithstanding that our officers and directors are committed to ensuring that the Company can operate its business, neither Messrs. Schlossberg, Ptalis nor Mats are legally or contractually obligated to lend us any money. Since the Company has no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, its inability to raise funds for the above purposes will have a severe negative impact on its ability to remain a viable company.
 
We currently have no commitments with any person for any capital expenditures.

Going Concern Consideration

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $17,719 and net cash used in operations of $43,470 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company is in the development stage and has not generated any revenues since inception.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on management's plans, which currently includes commencement of operations and partial reliance upon related party debt or equity.
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
