REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

We have audited the balance sheet of Rubicon Real Estate and Mortgages, Inc. (a development stage company) as of April 30, 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period April 18, 2007 (inception) to April 30, 2007. Rubicon Real Estate and Mortgages, Inc’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audit 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. Our audit of the financial statements included 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Rubicon Real Estate and Mortgages, Inc. (a development stage company) as of April 30, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period April 18, 2007 (inception) to April 30, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and is dependent upon obtaining funds to meet its cash requirements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Rubicon Real Estate and Mortgages, Inc.

(a Development Stage Company)

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

 

Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures

 

Organization

The Company was organized on April 18, 2007 under the laws of the State of California as Rubicon Real Estate and Mortgages, Inc. The Company has not commenced significant operations and, in accordance with SFAS #7, the Company is considered a development stage company.

 

The Company is engaged in the real estate and mortgage business and will earn commissions based on real estate sales and mortgage closings.

 

Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities

Statement of Position 98-5 (SOP 98-5), “Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities,” which provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organizational costs, requires most costs of start-up activities and organizational costs to be expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. With the adoption of SOP 98-5, there has been little or no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include the recoverability of intangible assets.

 

Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposit, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and investment grade commercial paper that are readily convertible into cash and purchased with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 101. Revenue is recorded upon the closing of a sale of real estate and/or mortgage.

 

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. There was $0 of advertising costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the period ended April 30, 2007.

 

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS No. 109 requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

 

differences between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carry forwards.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has financial instruments whereby the fair value of the financial instruments could be different than that recorded on a historical basis in the accompanying balance sheet. The Company has no financial instruments as of April 30, 2007.

 

Loss per Common Share

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of consolidated statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. As of April 30, 2007, there are no stock options or warrants outstanding.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the FASB published FASB Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN No. 48"), "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes", to address the non-comparability in reporting tax assets and liabilities resulting from a lack of specific guidance in FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS" No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, on the uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. FIN 48 will apply to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements". This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No, 157 will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the effects SFAS No. 157 will have on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

 

Year end

The Company has adopted December 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

Note 2 - Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $146,700 as of April 30, 2007. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities. Management has plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offerings of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
