NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

September 30, 2010

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the presentation of interim financial information, and include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  The audited financial statements for the period December 31, 2009 and the year then ended were filed on February 5, 2010 with the Securities and Exchange Commission are hereby referenced.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the six month period ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTE 2 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
Description of Business

Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation, was incorporated on October 4, 2007, and was a provider of personal care products.  On December 14, 2009, Bobby R. Smith, Jr. and Frances Mize together consummated the purchase of 5,928,235 shares of common stock of Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc. from seven shareholders which constituted 74.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc., for $325,000.  As a result of the transactions, (i) Bobby R. Smith, Jr. owns individually 43.7% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company and (ii) Frances Mize owns individually 30.4% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company.  

On February 10, 2010, Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc. changed its name to Four Star Holdings, Inc., (hereinafter known as the “Company”).  The Company is a real estate acquisition and development entity.  Following is a chart showing the corporate structure:

TWELVE OAKS PROPERTIES, INC.

The Company’s principal executive office is located at 100 Four Star Lane, Odenville, AL  35120.  Its telephone number is (205)-640-3726, and the Company’s website is www.4StarHoldings.com.  The contents of the Company’s website are not incorporated herein.  The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31st.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company.  The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).  The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its subsidiaries.  All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  As of September 30, 2010, the Company has no cash equivalents.
 
 
 
- 7 -

 
 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at cost unless the inventory within a community is determined to be impaired, in which case the impaired inventory is written down to fair value.  Inventory costs include land, land development and home construction costs, real estate taxes, deposits on land, purchase contracts, and interest related to development and construction.  Construction overhead and selling expenses are expensed as incurred.  Real estate held-for-sale is classified as inventories until delivered.  Land, land development, amenities and other costs are accumulated by specific area and allocated to homes within the respective areas.  The Company reviews its inventory for indicators of impairment by evaluating each community during each reporting period.  The inventory within each community is categorized as real estate held-for-sale or land held for development based on the development state within respective phases.
 
Revenue Recognition

Revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the completed contract method.  This method is used because the typical contract is completed in three months or less, and financial position and results of operations do not vary significantly from those that would result from use of the percentage-of-completion method.  A contract is considered complete when all costs except insignificant items have been incurred and the installation is operating according to specifications or has been accepted by the customer.

Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs.  General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred.  Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

All other revenue, including timber, commissions, and rental, are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sale is complete, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260 “Earnings per Share” which was previously Statement of Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“SFAS No. 128”).  Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.  There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.
 
 
 
- 8 -

 
 

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Fair Value Measurements, as it applies to its financial statements.  This standard defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market.  The standard establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability.  The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable.  The standard requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value.  Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly.  Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

Share Based Payments

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25.  Under SFAS No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees or independent contractors are required to provide services.  Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, or “SAB 107.” SAB 107 expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff's views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies.  SFAS No. 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods.  On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R).  Companies may elect to apply this statement either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under SFAS 123.

Effective commencing on the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company has fully adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107.  As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant as the fair value of the share-based payments.  Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB Accounting Standards Codification

(Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-01)

In June 2009, FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP.  All existing accounting standard documents, such as FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force and other related literature, excluding guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), have been superseded by the Codification.  All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become non-authoritative.  The Codification did not change GAAP, but instead introduced a new structure that combines all authoritative standards into a comprehensive, topically organized online database.  The Codification is effective for interim or annual periods ending after March 15, 2009, and impacts the Company’s financial statements as all future references to authoritative accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the Codification.  There have been no changes to the content of the Company’s financial statements or disclosures as a result of implementing the Codification during the quarter ended September 30, 2010.  As a result of the Company’s implementation of the Codification during the quarter ended September 30, 2010, previous references to new accounting standards and literature are no longer applicable.  In the current quarter financial statements, the Company will provide reference to both new and old guidance to assist in understanding the impacts of recently adopted accounting literature, particularly for guidance adopted since the beginning of the current fiscal year but prior to the Codification.

In June 2009, the FASB revised the authoritative guidance for consolidating variable interest entities, which changes how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated.  The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,” which requires additional disclosures about transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.  This guidance was effective for the Company in the current quarter, except for the Level 3 activity disclosures, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.  The adoption of this guidance, which is related to disclosure only, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

(Included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855 “Subsequent Events,” previously SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events.”)

SFAS No. 165 established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (“subsequent events”).  An entity is required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that date.  For public entities, this is the date the financial statements are issued.  SFAS No. 165 does not apply to subsequent events or transactions that are within the scope of other GAAP and did not result in significant changes in the subsequent events reported by the Company.  SFAS No. 165 became effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and did not impact the Company’s financial statements.  The Company evaluated for subsequent events through the issuance date of the Company’s financial statements.  No recognized or non-recognized subsequent events were noted.

Loss Contingencies

See Section II Part 1 titled Legal Proceedings in reference to the Company as a defendant in a case entitled Cirrus Acquisition and Development Corporation vs. the Company, which is in the United States District Court in the Northern District of Alabama.  The case arose from claims by Richard Woods, a former consultant, who claims that the Company owes the Plaintiff stock and cash.  The suit seeks damages totaling $10,000,000.  The Company believes that the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend its position.  The ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined.  Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the financial statements.

Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets

(Included in ASC 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” previously FSP SFAS No. 142-3 “Determination of the Useful Lives of Intangible Assets.”)

FSP SFAS No. 142-3 amended the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under previously issued goodwill and intangible assets topics.  This change was intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under topics related to business combinations and other GAAP.  The requirement for determining useful lives must be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date and the disclosure requirements must be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, the effective date.  FSP SFAS No. 142-3 became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 142-3 did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Non-controlling Interests

(Included in ASC 810 “Consolidation,” previously SFAS No. 160 “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51.”)

SFAS No. 160 changed the accounting and reporting for minority interests such that they will be recharacterized as non-controlling interests and classified as a component of equity.  SFAS No. 160 became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 with early application prohibited.  The Company implemented SFAS No. 160 at the start of fiscal 2009 and no longer records an intangible asset when the purchase price of a non-controlling interest exceeds the book value at the time of buyout.  Any shortfall resulting from the early buyout of non-controlling interests will continue to be recognized as a benefit in partner investment expense up to the initial amount recognized at the time of buy-in. Additionally, operating losses can be allocated to non-controlling interests even when such allocation results in a deficit balance (i.e., book value can go negative).  Minority interest expense is no longer separately reported as a reduction to net income on the consolidated income statement, but is instead shown below net income under the heading “net income attributable to non-controlling interests.”  The adoption of SFAS No. 160 did not have any other material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 4 - EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

On December 11, 2008, Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc. completed its public offering pursuant to its Form S-1 Registration Statement of 6,780 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which were converted into 1,762,800 shares of common stock and provided aggregate offering proceeds in the amount of $67,800.
 
On April 1, 2009, Dragon’s Lair Holdings, Inc. issued 100,000 shares of common stock to its transfer agent for services rendered at a value of $3,846.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing in this Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 filed on February 17, 2010 with the SEC and are hereby referenced.
 
The statements in this report include forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations and beliefs and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations.  You should not rely upon these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events because we cannot assure you that the events or circumstances reflected in these statements will be achieved or will occur.  You can identify a forward-looking statement by the use of the forward-terminology, including words such as “may,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “continues,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “plans,” and/or words of similar import, or the negative of these words and phrases or other variations of these words and phrases or comparable terminology.  These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things: our sales, results of operations and anticipated cash flows; capital expenditures; depreciation and amortization expenses; sales, general and administrative expenses; our ability to maintain and develop relationship with our existing and potential future customers;  and, our ability to maintain a level of investment that is required to remain competitive.  Many factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: variability of our revenues and financial performance; risks associated with technological changes; the acceptance of our products in the marketplace by existing and potential customers; disruption of operations or increases in expenses due to our involvement with litigation or caused by civil or political unrest or other catastrophic events; general economic conditions, government mandates and conditions in the gaming/entertainment industry in particular; and, the continued employment of our key personnel and other risks associated with competition.
 
For a discussion of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements see the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this item of this report and the other risks and uncertainties that are set forth elsewhere in this report or detailed in our other SEC reports and filings.  We believe it is important to communicate our expectations.  However, our management disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview

We are a holding company created to acquire companies that operate as real estate developers, brokers, and home builders.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.  The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates these estimates and assumptions, including but not limited to those related to revenue recognition and the impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes 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.
 
 
 
- 15 -

 

 
Stock Compensation

We adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”), which requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.  We account for stock-based compensation arrangements with nonemployees in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Abstract No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.  We record the expense of such services to employees and non employees based on the estimated fair value of the equity instrument using the Black-Scholes pricing model.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
We recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements’ and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.”  In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Outlook

The most important metric by which we judge our performance now and in the near term is sales growth.  Our current commitment to develop and build residential and commercial real estate communities is directly affected by current economic conditions.  We do not expect our operations to decline meaningfully in the near future.  Since investors are certain to be the primary, near term source of liquidity to support our development and marketing efforts, our liquidity will be driven by our ability to attract repeat investments from current shareholders and to find new ones.  This in turn may be materially impacted by the general investment climate.
 
Our primary marketing challenge for the coming 12 months is to achieve greater market awareness through hiring new marketing consultants.  Our primary developmental and operational challenge is to increase the amount of homes we can build and sell and our commitment to succeed through tough economic times.
 
Revenues
 
As our revenues increase, we plan to continue to invest in marketing and sales by increasing the number of direct real estate sales consultants and management personnel, expand our selling and marketing activities, building brand awareness and sponsoring additional marketing events.  We expect that in the future, marketing and sales expenses will increase in absolute dollars.  We do not expect our revenues to increase significantly until 2011.
 
General and Administrative Expenses

We expect that general and administrative expenses associated with executive compensation will increase in the future.  Although our current chief executive, president, secretary and treasurer have currently foregone full salary payments, we anticipate retroactive and current compensation during 2011.  In addition, we believe in the 2011 fiscal year that the compensation packages required to attract the senior executives we require to execute our business plan will increase our total general and administrative expenses.

On November 4, 2010, we entered into a revolving line of credit for up to $3,000,000.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported.  These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition.  We believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Item 4.       Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.  In carrying out that evaluation, management identified a material weakness (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting.

The material weakness identified by management consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision within our bookkeeping and accounting operations.  The relatively small number of employees who have bookkeeping and accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system.  The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.  However, as there has been no instance in which we failed to identify or resolve a disclosure matter or failed to perform a timely and effective review, management determined that the addition of personnel to our bookkeeping and accounting operations is not an efficient use of our resources at this time.

Accordingly, based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2010, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of that date, our controls and procedures were not effective for the purposes described above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
