The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 6 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS The unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations; nevertheless, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements and the notes attached hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on August 12, 2009. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of Laredo Mining, Inc., as of August 31, 2009 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three month periods then ended, have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Laredo Mining, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on March 31, 2008 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. The Company currently has no operations and, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises," is considered an Exploration Stage Enterprise. The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company reports revenue and expenses using the accrual method of accounting for financial and tax reporting purposes. USE OF ESTIMATES Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 7 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) CASH For the Statement of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of August 31, 2009 and May 31, 2009. MINERAL PROPERTY ACQUISITION AND EXPLORATION COSTS Mineral property acquisition, exploration and development costs are expensed as incurred until such time as economic reserves are quantified. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties. DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND CAPITALIZATION The Company records depreciation and amortization, when appropriate, using straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (five to seven years). Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and replacements that increase the property's useful life are capitalized. Property sold or retired, together with the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the appropriate accounts and the resultant gain or loss is included in net income. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and clarified by FASB Interpretation Number ("FIN") 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109". Under Statement 109, a liability method is used whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between basis used for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. Income taxes are provided based on tax rates in effect at the time such temporary differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not, that the Company will not realize the tax assets through future operations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial accounting Standards Statement No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires the Company to disclose, when reasonably attainable, the fair market values of its assets and liabilities which are deemed to be financial instruments. The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and certain investments. 8 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) EARNINGS PER SHARE INFORMATION The Company computes per share information in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during such period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. SHARE BASED EXPENSES In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123R "Share Based Payment." This statement is a revision to SFAS 123 and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and amends FASB Statement No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." This statement requires a public entity to expense the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. This statement also provides guidance on valuing and expensing these awards, as well as disclosure requirements of these equity arrangements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R upon creation of the company and expenses share based costs in the period incurred. NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is not presently involved in any litigation. NOTE 4 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board 28-1, "Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," ("FSP 107-1"). FSP 107-1 amends SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. FSP 107-1 also amends APB Opinion No. 28, "Interim Financial Reporting," to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. FSP 107-1 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. FSP107-1 does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, this FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. The Company adopted FSP 107-1 in the first quarter of 2009. FSP 107-1 did not have a material impact on the financial statements. In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Positions 115-2 and 124-2, "Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments" ("FSP 115-2 and 124-2"). FSP 115-2 and 124-2 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to 9 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. FSP 115-2 and 124-2 does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. The Company adopted FSP 115-2 and 124-2 in the first quarter of 2009. FSP 115-2 and 124-2 did not have a material impact on the financial statements. In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-4, "Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly," ("FSP 157-4"). FSP 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements," when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP 157-4 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted FSP 157-4 in the first quarter of 2009. FSP 107-1 did not have a material impact on the financial statements. In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, "Subsequent Events," ("SFAS No. 165"). SFAS 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 applies to both interim financial statements and annual financial statements. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. SFAS 165 does not have a material impact on our financial statements. In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166, "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140," ("SFAS 166"). SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity," changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity's continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt SFAS 166 in fiscal 2010. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 166 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 167, "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)," ("SFAS 167"). The amendments include: (1) the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, (2) a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and (3) changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The Company will adopt SFAS 10 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) 167 in fiscal 2010. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 166 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles," ("SFAS 168"). SFAS 168 replaces FASB Statement No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles", and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company will begin to use the new Codification when referring to GAAP in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2010. This will not have an impact on the consolidated results of the Company. NOTE 5 - GOING CONCERN Future issuances of the Company's equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Company's present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred cumulative net losses of $25,675 since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties. NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The sole officer and director of the Company may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities as they become available, thus she may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and her other business opportunities. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts. While the Company is seeking additional capital, the sole officer and director has advanced funds to the Company to pay for any costs incurred by it. These funds are interest free. The balance due the sole officer and director was $12,400 and $12,400 on August 31, 2009 and May 31, 2009, respectively. 11 Laredo Mining, Inc. (An Exploration Stage Enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2009 (Unaudited) NOTE 7 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The stockholders' equity section of the Company contains the following classes of capital stock as of August 31, 2009 Preferred Shares, $ 0.0001 par value: 10,000,000 shares authorized. Common Stock, $ 0.0001 par value: 90,000,000 shares authorized; 5,000,000 shares issued and outstanding. On March 31, 2008 the Company issued a total of 3,000,000 shares of common stock to one director for cash in the amount of $0.003 per share for a total of $ 9,000. On June 4, 2009 the Company issued a total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock to various individuals for cash in the amount of $0.015 per share for a total of $ 30,000 to complete it's S-1 offering. As of August 31, 2009, the Company has not granted any stock options and has not recorded any stock-based compensation. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "EARNINGS PER SHARE." The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic loss per share. Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted averaged number of shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised. Basic net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding of 5,000,000 for the period ended August 31, 2009 and 3,000,000 for the year ended May 31, 2009. As of August 31, 2009, May 31, 2009 and since inception, the Company had no dilutive potential common shares. 12 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We use words such as "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "expect", "future", "intend", and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. Investors should be aware that all forward-looking statements contained within this filing are good faith estimates of management as of the date of this filing. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. GENERAL INFORMATION We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Laredo Mining Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 31, 2008. We intend to use the net proceeds from an offering pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 to develop our business operations. We are an exploration stage company with no revenues or operating history. The principal executive offices are located at1426 Cole Lane, Upland, CA 91784. We received our initial funding of $9,000 through the sale of common stock to our director who purchased 3,000,000 shares of common stock at $.003 per share on March 31, 2008. On June 4, 2009 we issued a total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock to various individuals for cash in the amount of $0.015 per share for a total of $30,000 to complete our S-1 offering. Our financial statement from inception through the quarter ended August 31, 2009 report no revenues and a net loss of $25,675. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion for the Company which includes a statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. We currently own a 100% undivided interest in a mineral property, the Tab 1-4 Claims, located in the State of Nevada. The Tab Property consists of an area of approximately 83 acres located in the Mount Jackson Ridge area of Esmeralda County. Title to the property is held by Laredo Mining, Inc. Our plan of operation is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the property in order to assess whether it possesses deposits of gold, silver, barite or other minerals capable of commercial extraction. We have not earned any revenues to date. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our mineral properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our property, or if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs. Our shares are currently listed for trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol LRDM. As of the date of this report, there has been no active trading market for our common stock and no assurance that an active trading market for our securities will ever develop. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS We have generated no revenues since inception and have incurred $25,675 in expenses through August 31, 2009. The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the period ended Augsut 31, 2009. Balance Sheet Data: 8/31/09 ------------------- ------- Cash $25,725 Total assets $25,725 Total liabilities $12,400 Shareholders' equity $13,325 13 We received our initial funding of $9,000 through the sale of common stock to our director who purchased 3,000,000 shares of common stock at $.003 per share on March 31, 2008. On June 4, 2009 we issued a total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock to various individuals for cash in the amount of $0.015 per share for a total of $30,000 to complete our S-1 offering. We incurred operating expenses of $4,309 and $12,450 for the three months ended August 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These expenses consisted of general operating expenses incurred in connection with the day to day operation of our business and the preparation and filing of our registration statement and required reports. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our cash in the bank at August 31, 2009 was $25,725, total assets were $25,725 and outstanding liabilities were $12,400, consisting of a loan from our director. Our director has agreed to provide additional funding that will enable us to maintain a positive cash flow needed to pay for our current level of operating expenses over the next twelve months, if needed. There are no formal commitments or arrangements with our director to advance or loan funds. There are no terms regarding repayment of any loan or capital contribution. We are a development stage company and have generated no revenue to date. We estimate our current cash balance of $25,725, along with loans from our director, will be sufficient for operations over the next 12 months. PLAN OF OPERATION Our plan of operation is to conduct mineral exploration activities on the Tab 1-4 Mineral Claims in order to assess whether the property contains mineral reserves capable of commercial extraction. Our exploration program is designed to explore for commercially viable deposits of silver, gold and other minerals. We have not, nor has any predecessor, identified any commercially exploitable reserves of these minerals on the property. Our plan of operation for the twelve months following funding from our offering is to complete the first phase of the exploration program on our claim consisting of detailed prospecting, mapping, soil surveys and VLF-EM and magnetometer surveys. In addition to the $19,000 we anticipate spending for Phase 1 and 2 for the exploration program as outlined below, we anticipate spending over the next 12 months an additional $10,000 on professional fees, including fees payable in connection with the filing of this registration statement and complying with reporting obligations. Total expenditures are therefore expected to be approximately $29,000. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to funding during the next 12 months, we may utilize funds from our director, who has informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for professional fees, including fees payable in connection with the filing of this registration statement and operation expenses, however she has no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to the company. We engaged James McLeod, P. Eng., to prepare a geological evaluation report on the Tab 1-4 Mineral Claims. Mr. McLeod's report summarizes the results of the history of the exploration of the mineral claims, the regional and local geology of the mineral claims and the mineralization and the geological formations identified as a result of the prior exploration in the claim areas. The following three phase exploration proposal and cost estimate is offered with the understanding that consecutive phases are contingent upon positive and encouraging results being obtained from each preceding phase: PHASE 1 Detailed prospecting, mapping and soil geochemistry. The estimated cost for this program is all inclusive. It is estimated that it could take a week of work and a number of more weeks to perform the analyses $ 9,500 14 PHASE 2 Magnetometer and VLF electromagnetic, grid controlled surveys over the areas of interest determined by the Phase 1 survey. Included in this estimated cost is transportation, accommodations, board, grid installation, two geophysical surveys, maps and report 9,500 PHASE 3 Induced polarization survey over grid controlled anomalous areas of interest outlined by Phase 1&2 fieldwork. Hoe or bulldozer trenching, mapping and sampling of bedrock anomalies. Includes assays, detailed maps and reports 25,000 ------- Total $44,000 ======= If we are successful in raising the funds from our offering, we plan to commence Phase I of the exploration program on the claim in October 2009. We expect this phase to take 2 weeks to complete and an additional two months for the consulting geologist to receive the results of the surveys and prepare his report. The above program costs are management's estimates based upon the recommendations of the professional consulting geologist's report and the actual project costs may exceed our estimates. Following Phase I of the exploration program, if it proves successful in identifying mineral deposits, we intend to proceed with Phase II of our exploration program. The estimated cost of this program is $9,500 and will take approximately 10 days to complete and an additional two months for the consulting geologist to receive the results from the assay lab and prepare his report. Following Phase II of the exploration program, if it proves successful in identifying mineral deposits, we intend to proceed with Phase III of our exploration program if we are able to raise the funds necessary. The estimated cost of this program is $25,000 and will take approximately 4 weeks to complete and an additional two months for the consulting geologist to receive the results from the assay lab and prepare his report. We anticipate commencing Phase II of our exploration program in winter 2009, depending on whether Phase 1 program proves successful in identifying mineral deposits. Subject to financing, we anticipate commencing Phase III of our exploration program in early 2010, depending on whether Phase II program proves successful in identifying mineral deposits. We have a verbal agreement with James McLeod, P.Eng., the consulting geologist who prepared the geology report on our claim, to retain his services for our planned exploration program.
