REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM




To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Coral Gold Resources Ltd.
(an exploration stage company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (an exploration stage company) as of January 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations and deficit, cash flows and mineral properties for each of the years in the two year period ended January 31, 2007, and for the period from January 22, 1981 (inception) through January 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2005 and for the year then ended, and for the period from January 22, 1981 (inception) through January 31, 2005, were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations and whose report dated April 13, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements prior to restatement. The consolidated financial statements for the period from January 22, 1981 (inception) through January 31, 2005 prior to restatement included total revenues and net loss of $2,176,079 and $20,510,872, respectively. Our opinion on the consolidated statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the period from January 22, 1981 (inception) through January 31, 2007, insofar as it relates to amounts for prior periods through January 31, 2005 before restatement is based solely on the report of other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes 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 audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


 
 

 

 
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (an exploration stage company), at January 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended January 31, 2007 and the period from January 22, 1981 (inception) through January 31, 2007, in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

The consolidated balance sheet of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (an exploration stage company) as of January 31, 2005, the related consolidated statements of operations and deficit, cash flows and mineral properties for the year ended January 31, 2005, prior to the adjustments described in our audit report dated May 31, 2006 (except as to Notes 2 and 19, which are as of April 24, 2007) with respect to the restated consolidated financial statements of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (an exploration stage company) as of January 31, 2006 and for the year then ended, were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of

CORAL GOLD RESOURCES LTD.
(formerly Coral Gold Corp.)
(An Exploration Stage Company)

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of mineral properties of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (formerly Coral Gold Corp.) (An Exploration Stage Company) and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as at January 31, 2005 and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the year ended January 31, 2005 and for the cumulative period January 22, 1981 (inception) to January 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Canada and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements presented fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the company as at January 31, 2005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended January 31, 2005 and for the cumulative period January 22, 1981 (inception) to January 31, 2005 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Differences between Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting principles affecting the determination of shareholders’ equity at January 31, 2005 and the determination of net loss for the year ended January 31, 2005 are summarized in note 14.

NATURE OF BUSINESS

Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (“Coral” or the “Company”) is in the exploration stage, and is in the process of exploring its mineral property interests and has not yet determined whether they contain enough gold reserves, such that their recovery would be economically viable. The Company’s mining claims are located in the states of Nevada and California in the United States. The investment in and expenditures on the mineral properties comprise substantially all of the Company’s assets. The recoverability of amounts shown for its mineral properties interest and related deferred costs are dependent upon the continued support from its directors, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the financing necessary to complete development and achieve profitable operations in the future. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The value of the Company’s mineral properties could become impaired should its exploration activities cease or be unsuccessful, and may result in future write-downs of capitalized property carrying values.

2.    
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”), which are in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”), except as described in note 16 to these consolidated financial statements. All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.

Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Coral Resources, Inc. and Coral Energy Corporation of California and its 98.49% owned subsidiary Marcus. Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Mineral properties

The Company is in the exploration stage and defers all expenditures related to its mineral properties until such time as the properties are put into commercial production, sold or abandoned. Under this method, all amounts shown as mineral properties represent costs incurred to date less amounts amortized and/or written off and do not necessarily represent present or future values.

If the properties are put into commercial production, the expenditures will be depleted based upon the proven and probable reserves available. If the properties are sold or abandoned, the expenditures will be charged to operations. The Company does not accrue the estimated future costs, such as land taxes, of maintaining in good standing its mineral properties.

The carrying values of mineral interests, on a property-by-property basis, is reviewed by management at least annually to determine if they have become impaired. If impairment is deemed to exist, the mineral property will be written down to its fair value. The ultimate recoverability of the amounts capitalized for the mineral properties is dependent upon the delineation of economically recoverable ore reserves, the Company’s ability to obtain the necessary financing to complete their development and realize profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. Management’s estimates of recoverability of the Company’s investment in various projects have been based on current conditions. However, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term which could adversely affect management’s estimates and may result in future writedowns of capitalized property carrying values.

Investment securities

The investments in Mill Bay Ventures Inc. and Levon Resources Ltd. are carried at cost less writedowns determined to be other than temporary. They will be written down to their net realizable value if and when it has been determined that and other than temporary impairment to their value has occurred.

Fair value of financial instruments

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, advances receivable, interest receivable, investment securities, loan receivable, accounts payable and advances payable to related parties. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments, except where noted, since they are short term in nature or they are receivable or payable on demand. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, credit or currency risks arising from these financial instruments.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

At January 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had approximately $1,922,599 and $nil, respectively, in cash balances at financial institutions which were in excess of the insured limits. Therefore, the Company is exposed to significant concentrations of credit risk.

At January 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had approximately $332,229 and $260,976, that will be paid back once the Company has fulfilled its obligations to restore exploration sites to their original condition.

Foreign currency translation

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date for monetary items and at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates for non-monetary items. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period except for amortization, which is translated at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses on translation is included in operating results for the year.

Equipment

Equipment is recorded at historical cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is charged to earnings in amounts sufficient to allocate the costs over the assets’ estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis using the following annual rates pro-rated from initial utilization:

The effective interest rate earned on cash equivalents for the year was 5.7% [2006 - 3.1%; 2005 – nil].

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated giving effect to the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares. The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of stock options and other dilutive instruments. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and warrants are used to purchase common shares at the prevailing market rate.

As the Company incurred losses for the 2007, 2006 and 2005 fiscal year, stock options and share purchase warrants, as disclosed in note 9, were not included in the computation of loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the liability method pursuant to Section 3465, Income Taxes, of The Handbook of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. Future taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying substantively enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. The effect on future taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in operating results in the period that includes the date of substantive enactment. In addition, Section 3465 requires the recognition of future tax benefits to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not.

Asset retirement obligation

Asset retirement obligations are accounted for pursuant to Section 3110, of the Handbook of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. It requires the recognition of the fair value of a liability for asset retirement obligations in the year in which such a liability is incurred; when a reasonable estimate can be made. At such time the present value of the asset retirement obligation is to be added to the capitalized cost of the mineral property, and recorded as a liability at the equivalent amount. In periods subsequent to initial measurement, the asset retirement obligation is adjusted for both the passage of time and revisions to the original estimate. The site restoration obligations included in the capitalized cost of the property, as adjusted from time to time, are to be amortized to operations on the unit-of-production basis together with total mineral property costs capitalized.

Stock-based compensation

The Company adopted Section 3870 (“CICA 3870”), Stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments, of the Handbook of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants, which establishes standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments made in exchange for goods and services. Section 3870 sets out a fair value based method of accounting that is required for all stock-based transactions. Under the recommendation, direct awards of stock and stock options granted to employees and directors are recorded at fair value on the date of grant and the associated expense is amortized over the vesting period.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

3.    
MARCUS CORPORATION ACQUISITION

During the year ended January 31, 2006, the Company completed the following acquisition which was accounted for by the purchase method with effect from the date of acquisition.

On September 15, 2005, the Company acquired 98.49% of the issued and outstanding capital of Marcus Corporation (“Marcus”). The Company acquired the shares at a total cost, including costs of acquisition of $15,992, of $660,997. Consideration for the acquisition was paid through the issuance of common shares of the Company totalling 347,964, and 173,975 common share purchase warrants. The common shares were valued at $1.52 per share. The warrants were valued at $116,100 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The consideration has been allocated to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as follows:

MINERAL PROPERTIES

(a)
Robertson property

The Company has certain interests in 724 patented and unpatented load mining claims located in the Bullion Mining District, Lander County, Nevada, subject to NSR’s ranging from 4% to 10%, and which certain leases provide for advance royalty payments. The Robertson group is recorded under three separate claims groups known as the Core Claims (100% owned), the Carve-out Claims (39% carried interest) and the Norma Sass/Ruf Claims (66.67% owned).

 
(i)
Carve-out Claims - 39% carried interest

By an Agreement dated May 16, 1996, the Company granted Amax Gold Exploration Inc. (“Amax”) an option to purchase a 51% interest in 200 claims. Amax exercised the option by paying twice the amount the Company had incurred in exploration expenditures on the property. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company could elect, and did elect, to have the 49% of its interest reverted to a 39% carried interest.

The Carve-out Claims Option Agreement was assignable by the Company or Amax. On September 13, 1995, the Company optioned 50% of its interest in 54 claims (subsequent known as the Ruf/Sass Claims - see note 7(a)(ii)) to Levon Resources Ltd., and on March 24, 1997 Amax assigned it’s Option to Placer Dome Inc. (“Placer”). On July 11, 1997, Placer exercised its right to acquire a 51% interest in the claims by making a payment to the Company of US $615,359. The claims, that Placer had acquired a 51% interest in, excluded the Ruf/Sass claims as these were released back to the Company by Placer. Pursuant to the terms under the option agreement, the parties entered into an Exploration and Mining Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated July 11, 1997, and the Company exercised its right to have Placer advance the Company’s share of venture costs from inception of the Agreement to commencement of commercial production in exchange for an additional undivided 10% interest in the properties.

(ii)
Norma Sass/Ruf - 66.67% owned

By an amended Option Agreement dated September 13, 1995, the Company had granted Levon Resources Ltd. (“Levon”), a company related by common directors, an option to purchase a 50% interest in 54 claims known as the Norma Sass/Ruf Claims (the “Property”). On December 31, 2002, the Agreement was amended whereby Levon earned a 33.33% interest in the claims by the issuance to the Company of 300,000 common shares in Levon (received during previous fiscal years) and incurring $350,294 in exploration on the Property (incurred during prior years).

A third party holds a 3% net smelter returns royalty on the production from some of these mining claims, up to a limit of USD$1,250,000.

By an Option Agreement dated December 4, 2002 the Company granted Goldfranchise Corporation (“Goldfranchise”) an Option to acquire a 33 1/3% interest in the Ruf/Norma Sass claims. In order to earn the interest, Goldfranchise must:

 
a)
Pay to Coral US$38,391.50;

 
b)
Incur minimum expenditures on the Property in the amount of US $300,000, of which $100,000 was to be incurred on or before December 4, 2003, and the balance of $200,000 on or before December 4, 2004; and

 
c)
Pay to Coral 33 1/3% of all land fees, taxes, advance royalties required to keep the claims in good standing.

This Option Agreement with Goldfranchise has been terminated due to Goldfranchise not fulfilling their obligations under the Agreement.

By way of an agreement dated December 30, 2004, the Company and Levon have assigned, sub-leased and granted a mining lease to a subsidiary of Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (“AGE”) on the following properties: the Blue Nugget; the Blue Nugget #1 to #8; the Lander Ranch; the Lander Ranch #1 to the Lander Ranch #25 and the Lander Ranch Extension; the Blue Jay; the T and S; the Norma and the Norma #1 to the Norma #23; the Sass and the Sass #1 to the Sass #10; the DM #1 to the DM #8; the BA #1 to the BA #12; the PC #1 to the PC #20; and the PM #1 to the PM #12, in consideration for the following minimum advance royalty payments (in US dollars) and minimum work commitments:

(iii)
Core claims - 100% owned

By an Option Agreement dated January 31, 1999 the Company granted Placer an option to acquire up to a 70% interest in the entire Robertson Property’s 724 claims. Under the terms of the Option, Placer guaranteed a Reclamation Bond required to be posted by the Company for previous exploration work on the Core Claims. The Option Agreement terminated on December 31, 1999. The Company was obligated under the terms of the Option to replace Placer’s guarantee. Subsequent to January 31, 2004, the Company replaced the guarantee by posting a cash bond [note 7].

 
(iv)
Marcus Corporation

By way of an agreement dated September 15, 2005, the Company has purchased 1,391,860 shares of Marcus Corporation (“Marcus”), representing 98.49% of the total issued shares of Marcus. Marcus owns the Marcus mining claims, consisting of 39 unpatented lode claims and two Placer claims, and which comprise a portion of the Company’s Robertson Property. By acquiring Marcus, the Company controls Marcus, and owns an indirect interest in the mining lease between the Company and Marcus, which provides for an annual advanced royalty to Marcus of US$12,000, and a 5% net smelter returns royalty up to a maximum payment of US$2.5 million. The mining lease with Marcus expires in 2007.

MINERAL PROPERTIES (continued)

(b)
Eagle Property

The Company holds a 50% interest in 45 lode mineral claims located at Corral Canyon in Lander County, Nevada, USA. During the year ended January 31, 2001, the Company decided to defer exploration on the property and to reduce the carrying value to a nominal amount.

(c)
Ludlow Property

The Company owns a mineral property consisting of approximately 128 acres in the San Bernadino County, California, USA. During the year ended January 31, 2001, the Company decided to defer exploration on the property and to reduce the carrying value to a nominal amount.

(d)
JDN Property

The Company holds a 50% interest in 34 lode mineral claims located in Lander County, Nevada USA. The JDN claims are located approximately three miles north of the Robertson Property. During the year ended January 31, 2001, the Company decided to defer exploration on the property and to reduce the carrying value to a nominal amount.

Ownership in mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties in determining the validity of certain claims, as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristics of many mineral interests. The Company has investigated ownership of its mineral interests and, to the best of its knowledge, ownership of its properties is in good standing.

RECLAMATION DEPOSIT

Under the laws of the State of Nevada, the Company is required to have a reclamation deposit which covers the cost to reclaim the ground disturbed. The Company’s obligation at January 31, 1999 had been assumed by Placer as part of the Exploration and Development Option Agreement [note 6(a)]. As the Agreement was terminated on December 31, 1999, the Company was required to post its own security to guarantee performance under the Reclamation Bond.

During the year ended January 31, 2007, additional planned exploration activities were approved by the Bureau of Land Management (the “Bureau”). Therefore, the Bureau increased the amount of the required deposit to $332,229 (US$282,268) [2006 - $260,976].

The Company, as principal, placed the funds in trust with a fully secured standby letter of credit lodged as collateral in support of the bond.

SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED IN ADVANCE

During the year ended January 31, 2006, the Company received $60,000 towards private placements of 20,000 shares that were issued in the current year as part of the private placement that closed on March 4, 2006.

SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

(c)
(continued)

During the year ended January 31, 2005, the Company adopted a stock option plan which provides for the granting of options to directors, officers, employees and consultants for a maximum of 929,000 shares (representing approximately 20% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of approval of the Plan by the Board). The Company recorded compensation expense of $748,409 [2006 - $1,056,100; 2005 - $343,533] with respect to stock options granted. The weighted average fair value of the options granted during 2007 was $2.79 per share [2006 - $2.59 per share; 2005 - $0.83 per share].

The fair value of options granted during the year ended January 31, 2007 was estimated at the date of granting using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.00%, dividend yield of 0.0%, volatility factor of 89.18%, and a life of 5 years.

The fair value of options granted during the year ended January 31, 2006 was estimated at the date of granting using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.09% and 4.42%, dividend yield of 0.0%, volatility factors of 104.23% and 101.41%, and a life of 5 years.

The Black-Scholes valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which are fully transferable and freely traded. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility; changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

The Company adopted the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook, section 3870, stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments, effective February 1, 2002. During fiscal 2004, the Company prospectively adopted the fair value based method of accounting for stock options granted to employees. Had the Company followed the fair value based method during fiscal 2003 and recognized stock-based compensation expense, the following would have been the effect on the Company’s loss from inception to date:

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 requires the reporting of comprehensive income (loss) in addition to net earnings. Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) plus other comprehensive income (loss); specifically, all changes in equity of a company during a period arising from non-owner sources.

Under US GAAP, a statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss) in the following format would form a part of the annual consolidated financial statements:

(i)
Included in advances receivable are amounts due from related parties, as well as third party receivables. These amounts due from related parties include $28,003 [2006 - $28,003] due from a joint venture with common management and common directors; $Nil [2006 - $7,850] from a company controlled by a Director; $1,471 [2006 - $1,430] from a Director of the Company; $4,751 [2006 - $Nil] due to a company with common management; and $16,217 [2007: $62,253 less an allowance for bad debt of $46,036; 2006: $89,992 less an allowance for bad debt of $76,868] with two companies with common management and common directors.
 
 
(ii)
Advances payable include $17,000 [2006 - $31,620] due to Directors; $Nil [2006 - $26,922] due to a company with common management; $972 [2006 - $Nil] to an officer of the Company; and $Nil [2006 - $3,414] to a company controlled by a Director.

(x)
The Company entered into a cost-sharing agreement during 2005 to reimburse a related party for a variable percentage of its overhead expenses, to reimburse 100% of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, and to pay a percentage fee based on the total overhead and corporate expenses referred to above. The agreement may be terminated with one-month notice by either party.
 
 
A total of $116,135 [2006 - $166,203; 2005 - $135,140] was charged to operations in relation to the cost sharing agreement.
 
 
The Company owns a one-sixth share of the related party which is valued at a nominal amount of $1; the shares are held in trust.

(h)
Deferred Exploration Expenditures

The Company follows the policy of deferring all acquisition and exploration costs relating to the mineral properties held. Under U.S. GAAP, the deferred exploration expenditures would have been expensed in the year they were incurred [see note 6[a] to 6[d]].

(i)
Investment Securities

U.S. GAAP requires available for sale investments to be recorded at fair value. The periodic fluctuation in value is recorded as part of comprehensive income (loss); under U.S. GAAP, the gain (loss) from available for sale investments is not recognized into operations (loss for the period) until the securities are sold and the gain (loss) is realized or there is an other-than-temporary impairment. Canadian GAAP requires such long-term investments are recorded at cost. The investments are written down when impairment is considered other than temporary, in which case the written-down value becomes the new cost base. In the Company’s case for the year ended January 31, 2007, a write-up was required for U.S. GAAP (to record to fair value).

 (j)
Stock Based Compensation

Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP both have the same policy of recording a compensation expense for the estimated fair value of stock options granted except that U.S GAAP, FAS 123R, requires the Company to estimate expected forfeitures at the grant date. Under U.S. GAAP the Company adopted the policy of fair value accounting for stock options, FAS 123, a year earlier than for Canadian GAAP, and at that time, the Company did not record a stock compensation charge of $60,000 under Canadian GAAP. Therefore, there is an adjustment of $60,000 to retained deficit when reconciling from Canadian GAAP to U.S. GAAP.

FAS 123R was adopted as at February 1, 2007, under the modified prospective method of adoption.  The Company’s stock options vest immediately upon granting.  Forfeitures are estimated under FAS 123R for options that are not fully vested.  Therefore, the adoption of this standard has no effect on the consolidated financial statements.

For U.S. GAAP purposes, stock based compensation would be included as part of the directors’ fees and a portion would be allocated to salaries and benefits in the consolidated statement of operations and deficit.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective beginning February 1, 2007 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of deficit. The Company is currently evaluating the impact FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (FAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is applicable beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that FAS 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”, (“FAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity is required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earning at each subsequent reporting date. The statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement. FAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is applicable beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that FAS 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
