NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, <strong>2007</strong> and 2006<br />
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS<br />
The Company (formerly Dagger Resources Inc.) was in<strong>corp</strong>orated under the Alberta Business Corporations Act on June 7,<br />
1996 and its articles were amended on June 24, 1996. The Company was an inactive public company until August 21, 2006,<br />
when the Board of Directors and management were changed and a new business plan was adopted.<br />
The Company is an Alberta based real estate <strong>investment</strong> company building a portfolio of real estate assets in secondary<br />
markets in western Canada consisting primarily of income producing properties in addition to other real estate to which<br />
management can conduct activity to provide fundamental value growth.<br />
These fi nancial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern. Should the going concern assumption<br />
not be applicable, then adjustments would be required to the carrying value of the Company’s net assets and to its statements<br />
of operations.<br />
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION<br />
The Company prepares fi nancial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.<br />
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES<br />
(a) Income taxes<br />
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for future income taxes whereby future income tax assets and<br />
liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of the assets and<br />
liabilities, and are measured using the substantively enacted tax rates and laws expected to apply when these differences<br />
reverse. In assessing whether the future tax assets are realizable, management considers whether it is more likely than<br />
not that some portion or all of the future tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of future tax assets,<br />
consisting of loss carryforwards and taxable temporary differences, is dependent upon the generation of future taxable<br />
income during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards can be utilized.<br />
(b) Revenue recognition<br />
Revenue from income-producing properties includes rents earned from tenants under lease agreements, realty tax and<br />
operating costs recoveries and other incidental income and is recognized as revenue over the term of the underlying<br />
leases. All rent increases based on escalation clauses in lease agreements are accounted for on a straight-line basis over<br />
the term of the respective leases.<br />
(c) Per share amounts<br />
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding during the<br />
<strong>report</strong>ing year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by using the treasury stock method. This method assumes that<br />
proceeds received from the exercise of in-the-money options are used to repurchase shares at the average market price<br />
for the period.<br />
