NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Jewett”) was incorporated under the Company Act of British Columbia on July 8, 1987.


The Company, through its subsidiaries, operates out of facilities located in North Plains, Oregon, Portland, Oregon and Ogden, Utah.  The Company operates as a wholesaler of lumber and building materials to home improvement centres located primarily in the Pacific and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States; as a processor and distributor of industrial wood and other specialty building products principally to original equipment manufacturers in the United States; as an importer and distributor of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States; and as a processor and distributor of agricultural seeds in the United States.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Generally accepted accounting principles


These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which are not materially different from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”).  In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present fairly the financial information contained therein.  These consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by US GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2005.  The results of operations for the period ended November 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending August 31, 2006.


Principles of consolidation


These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Jewett-Cameron Lumber Corporation, Jewett-Cameron Seed Co., Greenwood Products, Inc. and MSI-PRO Co., all of which are incorporated under the laws of Oregon, U.S.A.


Significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.


Estimates


The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Currency


These financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars as the Company's operations are based predominately in the United States.  Any amounts expressed in Canadian dollars are indicated as such.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)



Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.  At November 30, 2005 and August 31, 2005, cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash held at financial institutions.


Accounts receivable


Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. Accounts receivable primarily includes trade receivables from customers.   The Company provides for estimated losses on accounts receivable based on prior bad debt experience and a review of existing receivables.  Based on these factors, there is a provision for doubtful accounts of $nil and $nil for November 30, 2005 and August 31, 2005 respectively.


Inventory


Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost, based on the average cost method, and market.  Market is defined as net realizable value.


Property, plant and equipment


Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.  The Company provides for depreciation over the estimated life of each asset on a straight-line basis over the following periods:


 

Office equipment

5-7 years

 

Warehouse equipment

2-10 years

 

Buildings

5-30 years


Asset retirement obligations


The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or normal use of the long-lived assets.  The Company also records a corresponding asset which is amortized over the life of the asset.  Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time (accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation (asset retirement cost).  


Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of


Long-lived assets and certain identifiable recorded intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)


Foreign exchange


The Company's functional currency for all operations worldwide is the U.S. dollar.  The Company does not have non-monetary or monetary assets and liabilities that are in a currency other than the U.S. dollar.  Any income statement transactions in a foreign currency are translated at rates that approximate those in effect at the time of translation.  Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency transactions into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.


Earnings per share


Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per common share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive common shares.


The earnings per share data for the period ended November 30 is summarized as follows:

Stock option plan


Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans based on the fair value of options granted.  The Company has elected to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations and to provide additional disclosures with respect to the pro-forma effects of adoption had the Company recorded compensation expense as provided in SFAS No. 123.


In accordance with APB 25, compensation costs for stock options is recognized in income based on the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date of the award or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.  Generally, the exercise price for stock options granted to employees equals or exceeds the fair market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant, thereby resulting in no recognition of compensation expense by the Company.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)


Stock option plan (cont’d…)


The Company accounts for stock based compensation associated with the repricing of employee stock options in accordance with the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation” (“FIN 44”).  For accounting purposes, the repricing of existing stock options requires variable accounting for the new options granted from the date of modification.  Variable accounting requires that the intrinsic value, being the excess of the current market price at the end of each reporting period in excess of the exercise price of the repriced options, be expensed as non-cash stock based compensation expense until such time as the repriced options are exercised, expire or are otherwise forfeited.  Any increase in the intrinsic value of the repriced options will decrease reported earnings and any subsequent decreases in value will increase reported earnings.


If under SFAS No. 123 the Company determined compensation costs based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options, net earnings and earnings per share would have been reduced to the following pro-forma amounts:

Under Canadian GAAP, stock options granted are accounted for under the fair value method. There were no options granted for the three months ended November 30, 2005 and 2004, and therefore there are no differences between Canadian GAAP and US GAAP.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)


Comprehensive  income


The Company has no items of other comprehensive income in any period presented.  Therefore, net income presented in the consolidated statements of operations equals comprehensive income.


Financial instruments


The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values:


Cash and cash equivalents


The carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at financial institutions.


Accounts receivable / Note receivable


The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term nature and historical collectability.


Bank indebtedness


The carry amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligation.


Accounts payable / Accrued liabilities / Income taxes payable


The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligations.


Promissory note


The fair value of the promissory note is determined by discounting the future contractual cash flows under current financing arrangements at discount rates which represent borrowing rates presently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturity.


The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)



Income taxes


Income taxes are provided in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".  A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards.  Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.


Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.


Shipping and handling costs


The Company incurs certain expenses related to preparing, packaging and shipping its products to its customers, mainly third-party transportation fees. All costs related to these activities are included as a component of cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of operations. All costs billed to the customer are included as revenue in the consolidated statement of operations.


Revenue recognition


The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of building supply products, industrial wood and other specialty products and tools, when the products are shipped, title passes, and the ultimate collection is reasonably assured.  Revenue from the Company's seed operations is generated by the provision of seed processing, handling and storage services provided to seed growers, and by the sales of seed products.  Revenue from the provision of these services and products is recognized when the services have been performed and products sold and collection of the amounts is reasonably assured.

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss will be recognized. Management's estimates of revenues, operating expenses, and operating capital are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may affect the recoverability of the Company's investments.  Although management has made its best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that changes could occur which could adversely affect management's estimate of the net cash flow expected to be generated from its operations.

DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS



a)

During fiscal 2002, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire inventory over a 3 year period with an initial estimated value of $7,000,000 from Greenwood.  During the year ended August 31, 2003, the Company completed the final phase of the inventory acquisition.  As partial consideration for the purchase of the inventory the Company issued two promissory notes, based on its understanding of the value of the inventory purchased.  The Company is currently in dispute with the holders of the note as to the final amounts owing, and believes that there are no further amounts owing. In the event that resolution of the dispute results in a change to the promissory notes, any gain or loss will be recognized in the period that the final determination of the amount is made. However, any potential change is currently not determinable at this time.



b)

The Company leases office premises pursuant to an operating lease which expires in January, 2006.  For the periods ended November 30, 2005and 2004, rental expense was $45,414 and $45,414, respectively.



Future minimum annual lease payments are as follows:


 

2006

c)

At November 30, 2005, the Company had an un-utilized line-of-credit of approximately $6,200,000 (Note 7).

SEGMENT INFORMATION


The Company has four principal reportable segments: the sale of lumber and building materials to home improvements centres in the United States; the processing and sale of industrial products to original equipment manufacturers in the United States; the sale of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States; and the processing and sale of agricultural seeds in the United States.



These reportable segments were determined based on the nature of the products offered.  Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.  The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment income before taxes.  The following tables show the operations of the Company's reportable segments.

SEGMENTED INFORMATION (cont'd…)


For the three month period ended November 30, 2005 the Company made sales of $2,464,380 to customers of the industrial wood products segment which were in excess of 10% of total sales for the quarter.  For the three month period ended November 30, 2004 the Company made sales of $2,841,815 to customers of the lumber and building materials segment which were in excess of 10% of total sales for the quarter.

CONCENTRATIONS


Credit risk


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution.  The Company has concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable as large amounts of its accounts receivable are concentrated geographically in the United States amongst a small number of customers.  At November 30, 2005 and August 31, 2005, no customers accounted for accounts receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable.  The Company controls credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits, and monitoring procedures.  The Company performs credit evaluations of its commercial customers but generally does not require collateral to support accounts receivable.



Volume of business


The Company has concentrations in the volume of purchases it conducts with its suppliers.  For the period ended November 30, 2005, the Company had no suppliers that accounted for greater than 10% of total purchases.  For the period ended November 30, 2004, there were two suppliers totalling $1,930,982 and $1,448,617 that accounted for purchases greater than 10% of total purchases in the industrial wood products segment

Item 2.  

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


These unaudited financial statements are those of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd., contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state its financial position as of November 30, 2005 and August 31, 2005 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the three month period ended November 30, 2005 and November 30, 2004 in accordance with US GAAP.  Operating results for the three month period ended November 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2006.


The Company’s number of days in receivables was approximately 33 days as of November 30, 2005 and at August 31, 2005 the number of days in receivables was 32.  


The Company’s number of days in inventory was approximately 58 as of November 30, 2005 in comparison to approximately 55 days as of August 31, 2005.  


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Three Months Ended November 30, 2005 and November 30, 2004


Our operations are classified into four principle industry segments: the sale of lumber and building materials to home improvement centers in the United States; the processing and sale of industrial products to original equipment manufacturers in the United States; the sale of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States; and, the processing and sale of agricultural seeds in the United States. Sales of building materials have traditionally consisted of wholesale sales of lumber and building materials in the United States. This has transitioned to include both wood and non-wood items.  Sales in this category are attributable to Jewett Cameron Lumber Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of ours and consist primarily of home improvement products (sold thru JCLC) such as fencing materials, dimension lumber, green houses, dog kennels, outdoor umbrellas, etc. These sales occur year-round; however, they are greater in the spring and summer months. Sales and processing of industrial products to original equipment manufacturers consist of wholesale sales of products primarily to the transportation and recreational boating industries in the United States. Sales in this category are attributable to Greenwood Products, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Jewett Cameron Lumber Corporation. Approximately 50% of Greenwood Product’s sales are attributable to the recreational boating industry and are generally stronger during the spring and summer months. Sales of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps consist of the distribution of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States. Sales in this category are attributable to MSI-PRO Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of Jewett Cameron Lumber Corporation.   The processing and sale of agricultural seeds consists of the distribution of processed agricultural seeds and grain in the United States. Sales in this category are attributable to Jewett Cameron Seed Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jewett Cameron Lumber Corporation. Harvest months in the Northwest are June through September, and, consequently, a greater portion of the revenues attributable to Jewett Cameron Seed Company occurs during this time of year. Our major distribution center is located in North Plains, Oregon.


For the three months ended November 30, 2005, sales increased slightly to $18,224,957 compared to $18,140,490 for the three months ended November 30, 2004.


Sales of home improvement products were $3,147,751 for the three months ended November 30, 2005, an increase of slightly over 47% compared to sales of $2,136,304 for the three months ended November 30, 2004. Management attributes this increase to market acceptance of the Company’s new product line of pet products.


Revenues from the sales and processing of industrial products were $13,386,094 for the three months ended November 30, 2005; a decrease of 6% compared to revenues of $14,224,857 for the three months ended November 30, 2004. In spite of the decrease in gross sales, profitability increased approximately 30% This occurred because management reduced inventory levels to curb costs and concentrated on higher margin transactions rather than volume.


Sales of pneumatic tools and industrial clamps were $215,487 for the three months ended November 30, 2005 compared to $271,736 for the three months ended November 30, 2004, a decrease of 21%. In spite of the 21% decrease in sales, income from operations only decreased by $6,448.  Again, this is evidence of management’s decision to concentrate on higher margin transactions rather than volume.


Sales of processed seeds and grain were $1,475,625 for the three months ended November 30, 2005 compared to $1,507,593 for the three months ended November 30, 2004, a decrease of slightly over 2%.  The decrease in sales, which occurred in the three month period ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the three month period ended November 30, 2004, was due primarily because some of the November billings were not sent out until December.


Cost of sales accounted for 85% of sales for the three month period ended November 30, 2005 compared to 87% for the three month period ended November 30, 2004, a decrease of 2%.  The decrease was primarily attributable to higher margins for products sold through Jewett Cameron Lumber Corporation and the slightly lower cost of raw materials associated with the products sold through Greenwood.  

Operating expenses accounted for 11% of sales for both the first quarter of Fiscal 2006 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2005.  

Income tax expense for the three months ended November 30, 2005 was $324,000 as compared to $110,000 for the three months ended November 30, 2004. The Company estimates income tax expense for the quarter based on combined federal and state rates that are currently in effect.  The increase in income tax expense was due to the significantly higher profitability of the Company.                  


The net income for the three-month period ended November 30, 2005 was $550,391, which represents an increase of $382,556 as compared to the net income of $167,835 for the three-month period ended November 30, 2004.  This 224% increase resulted from the sales of higher margin products as described above.


The basic earnings per share for the three-month period ended November 30, 2005 was $0.36 and the diluted earnings per share for the same period was $0.35. This compares to both basic and diluted  earnings per share for the three month period ended November 30, 2004 of $0.11.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


As of November 30, 2005 the Company had working capital of $9,586,075, which represented an increase of $590,183 as compared to the working capital position of $8,995,892 as of August 31, 2005.  The primary reason for the increase in working capital was a decrease in bank indebtedness and accounts payable in the amount of $1,565,642.   The decrease in bank indebtedness and accounts payable was made possible by the fact that the Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $2,197,079 secured by its real estate located in North Plains Oregon. The promissory note is due on June 15, 2010 and bears interest at 6.25% per annum.  The aggregate principal repayments required in each of the next five years, assuming the note is renewed under similar terms and conditions, are as follows: $54,000 in 2006, $60,000 in 2007, $64,000 in 2008, $68,000 in 2009 and $73,000 in 2010. At June 15, 2010, the amount of principal at renewal will be approximately $1,876,000.


Accounts receivable and inventory represented 97% of current assets and both continue to turn over at acceptable rates.


External sources of liquidity include a bank line from the United States National Bank of Oregon.  The total line of credit available is $8.0 million of which there was an outstanding balance on November 30, 2005 of $1,595,091 and an outstanding balance as of August 31, 2005 of $2,077,063.  The bank indebtedness is secured by an assignment of accounts receivable and inventory. Interest is calculated at either prime or the LIBOR rate plus 190 basis points. The weighted average interest rate for the three-month period ended November 30, 2005 was 6.78%. For the three-month period ended November 30, 2004 the weighted average interest rate was 4.93%.


Based on the Company’s current working capital position, its policy of retaining earnings, and the line of credit available, the Company has adequate working capital to meet its needs during the current fiscal year.


Business Risks


This quarterly report includes “forward–looking statements” as that term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or “hopeful,” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. For example, this section contains numerous forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements in this report are made based on management’s current expectations and estimates, which involve risks and uncertainties, including those described in the following paragraphs.


Production time and the overall cost of products could increase if any of the primary suppliers are lost or if any primary supplier increased the prices of products;

Fluctuations in quarterly and annual operating results may make it difficult to predict future performance;

Shareholders could experience significant dilution;

The Company could lose its significant customers;

The Company could experience delays in the delivery of its products;

A loss of the bank credit agreement could impact future liquidity;


Production time and the overall cost of products could increase if any of the primary suppliers are lost or if a primary supplier increased the prices of raw materials:


The Company’s manufacturing operation, which consists of cutting diving board blanks and scaffolding material, depends upon obtaining adequate supplies of lumber on a timely basis. The results of operations could be adversely affected if adequate supplies of raw materials cannot be obtained in a timely manner or if the costs of lumber increased significantly.


Fluctuations in quarterly and annual operating results may make it difficult to predict future performance:


Quarterly and annual operating results could fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond management’s control. As a result of quarterly fluctuations, it is important to realize quarter-to-quarter comparisons of operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.


Shareholders could experience significant dilution:


The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without par value per share.  As of the date of this report, no shares of preferred stock have been issued.  The Company’s preferred stock may bear such rights and preferences, including dividend and liquidation preferences, as the board of directors may fix and determine from time to time.  Any such preferences may operate to the detriment of the rights of the holders of the common stock and would cause dilution to these shareholders.


The Company could lose its significant customers:


The top ten customers of the Company represent 39% of its business.  The Company would experience a significantly adverse effect if these customers were lost and could not be replaced.


The Company could experience delays in the delivery of its products:


The Company purchases its products from other vendors and a delay in shipment from these vendors to the Company could cause significant delays in delivery to the Company’s customers. This could result in a decrease in sales orders to the Company.


A loss of the bank credit agreement could impact future liquidity:


The Company currently maintains a line of credit with U.S. Bank in the amount of $8 million. A loss of this credit line could have a significantly adverse effect on the liquidity of the Company.

The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of November 30, 2005.  However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk.


The Company’s interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates.  In this regard, changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company’s cash equivalents as well as interest paid on debt.


The Company has a line of credit whose interest rate is based on various published rates that may fluctuate over time based on economic changes in the environment.  The Company is subject to interest rate risk and could be subject to increased interest payments if market interest rates fluctuate.  The Company does not expect any change in the interest rates to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results from operations.


Foreign Currency Risk


Management does not expect foreign currency exchange rates to significantly impact the Company in the future as all of the Company’s business operations are in the United States.


Item 4.

Controls and Procedures


The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods.


CEO and CFO CERTIFICATIONS


Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this Quarterly Report there are two separate forms of "Certifications" of the CEO.  The second form of Certification is required in accord with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certification).  This section of the Quarterly Report, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.


DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS.


Disclosure Controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) rules and forms.  Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized; (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, Our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that reasonable assurance level for the period stated.


LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS.


The Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our Internal Controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.  The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.


CONCLUSION


In accordance with SEC requirements, the CEO and CFO note that, as of the period ended 11/30/05 covered by this report, there were no significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our Internal Controls.
