CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Mascot Ventures Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), contains “forward-looking statements,” as defined in the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “expects”, “plans”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.  These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about our market opportunity, our strategies, competition, expected activities and expenditures as we pursue our business plan, and the adequacy of our available cash resources.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.  Actual results may differ materially from the predictions discussed in these forward-looking statements.  The economic environment within which we operate could materially affect our actual results. Additional factors that could materially affect these forward-looking statements and/or predictions include, among other things: the volatility of minerals prices, the possibility that exploration efforts will not yield economically recoverable quantities of minerals, accidents and other risks associated with mineral exploration and development operations, the risk that the Company will encounter unanticipated geological factors, the Company’s need for and ability to obtain additional financing, the possibility that the Company may not be able to secure permitting and other governmental clearances necessary to carry out the Company’s exploration and development plans, the exercise of the approximately 84.2% control the Company’s two shareholders collectively hold of the Company’s voting securities, other factors over which we have little or no control; and other factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).


Our management has included projections and estimates in this Form 10-Q, which are based primarily on management’s experience in the industry, assessments of our results of operations, discussions and negotiations with third parties and a review of information filed by our competitors with the SEC or otherwise publicly available.  We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.  We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

MASCOT VENTURES INC.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(A Development Stage Company)

July 31,2013

(Unaudited)



1.  NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Mascot Ventures Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2007 to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties.  The Company is in the exploration stage with no revenues and limited operating history.

  

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Mascot Ventures Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10K annual report filed with the SEC.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2012, as reported, have been omitted.


These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  The Company anticipates future losses in the development of its business, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.  Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from directors and/or issuance of common shares.



2.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


The President of the Company has provided management fees and office premises to the Company for a fee of $1,500 per month, the right to which the President had agreed to assign to the Company until such time as the Company closes on an equity or debt financing of not less than $100,000. The $99,000 for donated management fees were charged to operating and general expenses and recorded as donated capital (Additional Paid in Capital) for the period from September 25, 2007 (inception) to March 31, 2013. This has been discontinued as of March 31, 2013 due to the President’s resignation.


3. ADVANCES FROM RELATED PARTY (SHAREHOLDER)


As of July 31, 2013, the majority shareholder advanced the Company a total of $64,282 in order to assist in meeting general and administrative expenses.  This advance carries no interest or maturity date and is unsecured. A consultant of the Company advanced $25 during the quarter ended July 31, 2013 and carries no interest or maturity date.


4. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE                                           

       


On July 22, 2013, the Company issued a convertible note (the “Note”) dated July 22, 2013 to Aldebourne Ltd. in connection with a $40,000 working capital loan to the Company. The terms and conditions of such Note allow for the prepayment of principle and accrued interest upon three (3) days’ written notice to the holder.  The Company may pay 150% of the entire outstanding principal amount of the note plus any accrued or unpaid interest. The note holder retains the right to convert, at any time, the outstanding principle and accrued interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 70% of the average



10




lowest trading price for the five trading days prior to the conversion date.  The Company recorded a discount of $40,000 related to the derivative liability at inception and a derivative expense of $14,795 at inception. The interest rate is 14% per annum and the maturity date is July 21, 2015. The total accrued interest as of July 31, 2013 is $138.

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


The following information should be read in conjunction with (i) the financial statements of Mascot Ventures Inc., a Nevada corporation and exploration-stage company, and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q together with (ii) the more detailed business information and the October 31, 2012 audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 000-54298), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2013.   Statements in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical or current fact constitute “forward-looking” statements


OVERVIEW


Mascot Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2007 and established a fiscal year end of October 31.  It is a development stage company.


Going Concern


To date the Company has no operations or revenues and consequently has incurred recurring losses from operations.  No revenues are anticipated until we complete the financing we endeavor to obtain, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 000-54298), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2013, and implement our initial business plan.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund our business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations.  Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of share subscriptions and loans from shareholders.  From our inception to July 31, 2013, we have raised a total of $50,500 from private offerings of our common stock and received proceeds of $64,282 from a shareholder.


The Company plans to raise additional funds through debt or equity offerings.  There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise any capital through this or any other offerings.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and to the understanding of our financial results:


Basis of Presentation


The Company reports revenues and expenses using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for financial and tax reporting purposes.


Cash and Cash Equivalent


The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. 


Foreign Currency Translation





The financial statements are presented in United States dollars.  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification “ASC 830”, “Foreign Currency Matters”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction date.  Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the periods presented.  Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit), whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.


Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share


Basic loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Dilutive loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the losses of the Company.


Because the Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities, the accompanying presentation is only of basic loss per share.


PLAN OF OPERATION


As of April 15, 2013, when the Company entered into a Reorganization and Exclusive Sponsorship Licensing Agreement  with JBD Consulting LLC and Mobile Mone, Inc. (the “Licensing Agreement”), as detailed in the Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2013, we have abandoned previous plans to exploration of our mineral rights claims.  Pursuant to the Licensing Agreement, we intend to begin operations as an exclusive provider of mobile banking services under the license of JBD Consulting LLC and Mobile Mone products and services.  The Mobile Mone product allows participants to utilize mobile telephone technology to transfer and exchange money via a mobile device or email.  Our revenues will be derived on a commission basis duly scheduled in the Licensing Agreement.  


The conditions precedent to the closing of the Licensing Agreement have not been met and thus the Licensing Agreement is not yet effective.  However, management has continued operations in developing the software and marketing to venders and service providers.


Over the next twelve months we intend to build our operations and staff to implement our long term goals.  We are currently engaging key personnel in compliance, marketing and software development. Over the  40-45 days following closing of the Licensing Agreement, we plan on staffing our sales team with National, Regional, and Local sales representatives as well as support staff and territorially based strategic partners.


We expect to begin utilizing our sales staff immediately and see real sales revenues within 13-14 weeks and begin hitting long term projection goals by the 24 th week of operation.   During this time we will begin to scale our marketing material, training programs and resource centers for staff and potential clients alike.


  Results of Operations


The three and nine months ended July 31, 2013, and the period from September 25, 2007 (Inception) to July 31, 2013


We recorded no revenues for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2013.   From the period of September 25, 2007 (inception) to July 31, 2013, we recorded no revenues.


For the three months ending July 31, 2013, administrative expenses was $126,377, interest expense was $2,957, and derivative expense was $14,795. For the three months ending July 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $9,206.


For the nine months ending July 31, 2013, impairment loss was $6,500 and general and administrative expenses were $142,229, of which management fees were $5,000, interest expense was $2,957, and derivative expense was $14,795. For the nine months ending July 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $38,945.  


Operating expenses, consisting solely of general and administrative expenses in the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2013, consisted primarily of management fees, rent, filing fees, share transfer fees, accounting fees, consulting fees and service providers for marketing and software development.

From the period of September 25, 2007 (inception) to July 31, 2013, we incurred operating expenses of $353,354.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At July 31, 2013, we had a cash balance of $8,343.   We do not have sufficient cash on hand to commence building our sales staff or to fund our ongoing operational expenses beyond 12 months.  We will need to raise funds to commence our sales  program and fund our ongoing operational expenses.  Additional funding will likely come from equity financing from the sale of our common stock or sale of part of our interest in our mineral claims. If we are successful in completing an equity financing, existing shareholders will experience dilution of their interest in our Company.   We do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our exploration activities and ongoing operational expenses. In the absence of such financing, our business will likely fail.  There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve further sales of our common stock or any other form of additional financing.  If we are unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue our plan of operations, then we will not be able to build our sales platform and continue to develop the software and our business will fail.



ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), we are not required to provide the information called for by this Item 3.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer are responsible for conducting an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the fiscal year covered by this report.  Disclosure controls and procedures means that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, including any consolidating subsidiaries, and was made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 31, 2013.


There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
