American Lithium Minerals, Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to Interim Financial Statements

(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)

December 31, 2010

(Unaudited)



1.

Nature of Operations


American Lithium Minerals, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally organized as Nugget Resources Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 10, 2005.  The Company has been investigating prospective lithium opportunities.  On March 2, 2009, the Company changed its name to American Lithium Minerals, Inc. to better reflect the direction of the Company. The Company is an exploration stage enterprise, as defined in FASB ASC 915-10 “Development Stage Entities”.  The Company is devoting all of its present efforts to securing and establishing a new business and its planned principal operations have not commenced.  Accordingly, no revenue has been derived during the exploration period.


On May 7, 2010, the Company was registered under the Extra-Provincial Corporations Act in Ontario, Canada.


Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements as at December 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Company has a net loss for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 of $882,363 and $1,418,350, respectively, and has working capital deficit of $1,126,132 and $230,493 at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively.


Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital.  Management intends to raise additional funding in the form of equity financing from the sale of common stock and/or obtain short-term loans from the directors of the Company. However, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the near future, due to the Company’s liquidity problems, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favourable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


At December 31, 2010, the Company was not engaged in a business and had suffered losses from exploration stage activities to date.  Although management is currently attempting to implement its business plan, and is seeking additional sources of equity or debt financing, there is no assurance these activities will be successful.  Accordingly, the Company must rely on its president to perform essential functions with minimal compensation until a business operation can be commenced.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Nature of Operations (cont’d)


Unaudited Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2010, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2011.


2.

Significant Accounting Policies


The following is a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements.


Basis of presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to exploration stage enterprises, and are expressed in U.S. dollars.  The Company’s fiscal year end is September 30.


Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.


Mineral property costs

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on March 10, 2005 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.  It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties.  Mineral property exploration costs are charged to operations as incurred. The Company capitalizes costs for acquiring mineral properties and expenses costs to maintain mineral rights and leases as incurred.   When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property, are capitalized.  Such costs will be depleted using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.


Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, according to the usual industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title.  Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

2.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


Financial instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to related parties approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.  The Company’s operations are in Canada and virtually all of its assets and liabilities are giving rise to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates.  The Company’s financial risk is the risk that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates.  Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.


Environmental expenditures

The operations of the Company have been, and may in the future, be affected from time to time, in varying degrees, by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future reclamation and site restoration costs.  Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable.  The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation, by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.


Asset retirement obligations

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 410-20 “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations," which requires the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related oil and gas properties. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has not recorded AROs associated with legal obligations to retire any of the Company’s mineral properties as the settlement dates are not presently determinable.


Fixed Assets

The Company’s fixed assets consists of computer and office equipment and furniture which is valued at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over a period of three years.


Income taxes

Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with FASB ASC 740-10, which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for tax loss and credit carry-forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The Company provides for deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards when realization is more likely than not.

2.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


Basic and diluted net loss per share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.  In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants.  Diluted EPS excludes all

potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive and is not presented in the accompanying financial statements.


Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Concentrations of credit risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash.   The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness.  At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits.  The Company’s management also routinely assesses the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.


Stock based compensation

The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718, which requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards.  This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.


The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached in FASB ASC 505-10.  Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-10.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


Risks and uncertainties

The Company operates in the resource exploration industry that is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with operating a resource exploration business, including the potential risk of business failure.


Website Development Costs

Costs incurred in developing and maintaining a website are charged to expense when incurred for the planning, content population, and administration or maintenance of the website. All development costs for the application, infrastructure, and graphics development are capitalized and subsequently reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line basis over a five year estimated economic life of the product.


Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with FASB ASC 830-10, “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.  Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period.  Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.  To December 31, 2010, the Company has not recorded any translation adjustments into stockholders’ equity.


Long-lived assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment” which requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposal value.


3.

Reclassification


Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year’s financial statements to conforrm to the presentation used in fiscal year 2011. More specifically, a due from related party, previously classified as a current asset, was reclassified as a contra account to Stockholders’ equity. Additionally, Cash proceeds received on property deposit and purchase of mineral claims and exploration, previously reported on a net basis, are reported separately on the statement of cash flows.


These reclassifications did not affect the reported net loss for prior year.

On September 2, 2010, the Company issued a promissory convertible note in the amount of $750,000 to an unrelated third party in an arm’s length transaction secured by the Company’s mineral claims in Nevada and a Security Agreement (8K filed September 8, 2010).  The note is due August 31, 2015 and accrues interest at 4% per annum payable every six months.  Should the Company default on the interest payment, the interest rate increases to 12% per annum and the note is payable on demand.  The Company is currently in default of certain covenants related to the promissory convertible note due to the advances to a senior officer of $59,498 which is in contravention of SOX 402.   As a result, the Company has classified the promissory convertible note as a current liability and has accrued interest payable on the note at 12% per annum.  The Company has disclosed the default to the holder of the note and is requesting a waiver of the specific. The Company can provide no assurance such waiver will be granted. At the investor’s option, the note principal and accrued interest can be converted to shares of the Company at a fixed price of $0.54.

Item 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Results of Operations


Plan of Operation


Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to carry out exploration work on our recently acquired properties located in Nevada and to continue to review other potential acquisitions in the resource and non-resource sectors.  


We anticipate spending approximately $1,000,000 on administrative fees, including fees we will incur in complying with reporting obligations.  


As of December 31, 2010, we had a working capital deficiency of $1,126,132 compared to a working capital deficiency of $230,493 as at September 30, 2010.


We currently do not have sufficient funds on hand to cover our anticipated expenses for the next 12 months.  We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the future in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or from director loans.  However, we do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.


Results of Operations for Period Ending December 31, 2010 and 2009


We did not earn any revenues during the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 or December 31, 2009.  We incurred total operating expenses of $784,950 during the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to $1,419,970 during the three months ended December 31, 2009, consisting of general and administrative expenses, legal and accounting fees, consulting fees, management fees, promotion and shareholder relations, stock based compensation and mineral property expenditures.  


For the three months ended December 31, 2010, general and administrative expenses were $111,420 ($59,241 – December 31, 2009), consulting fees were $27,951 ($Nil – December 31, 2009) and consulting fees to related parties were $63,750 ($59,291– December 31, 2009), legal and accounting were $23,429 ($16,540 – December 31, 2009), management fees were $45,000 ($23,000 – December 31, 2009), promotion and shareholder relations was $70,534 ($52,500 – December 31, 2009), and stock based compensation was $Nil ($1,209,398 – December 31, 2009).  For the period from inception (March 10, 2005) through December 31, 2010, general and administrative expenses were $507,952, consulting fees



2




were $118,579 and consulting fees to related parties were $468,498, legal and accounting were $274,239, management fees were $285,000, promotion and shareholder relations were $266,794, rent expense was $7,600, stock based compensation was $9,132,364, mineral property expenditures were $461,866 and mineral property impairment was $513,296.  


Our expenses decreased by $635,020 during the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2009, largely due to stock based compensation of $1,209,398 incurred during the three months ended December 31, 2009 ($Nil – December 31, 2010).  General and administrative expenses, consulting fees, management fees, promotion and shareholder relations, and legal and accounting fees were higher during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 as compared to 2009  due to increased activity related to our acquisition of mineral properties and corresponding increase in activity.  


During the three months ended December 31, 2010, we incurred a net loss of $882,363, which resulted in an accumulated deficit of $12,152,837.


We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At December 31, 2010, we had total assets of $3,433,225, compared to $3,377,856 as at September 30, 2010.  We had total liabilities recorded at $1,706,963 as of December 31, 2010, compared to $709,733 as at September 30, 2010.  


We had cash and cash equivalents of $482,937 as of December 31, 2010, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $425,794 at September 30, 2010.  


During the three months ended December 31, 2010 we did not issue any securities.  During the three months ended December 31, 2009, we raised an aggregate of $999,999 by the issuance of 740,740 units at a price of $1.35 per unit by way of a private placement.  Each unit consists of one common share in the Company and one and one-half non-transferable common share purchase warrant.  Each whole common share purchase warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock, exercisable for a period of twenty four months, at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.  


We expect to run at a loss for at least the next twelve months. We have no agreements for additional financing and cannot provide any assurance that additional funding will be available to finance our operations on acceptable terms in order to enable us to complete our plan of operations.  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 continue our exploration of our mineral claims and our venture will fail.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our stockholders.


Contractual Obligations


None.

Item 4.  

Controls and Procedures


(a)  

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures


An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q.  Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.


In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented.


(b)  

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer and implemented by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.


Hugh Aird, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the COSO Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls.


Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010 due to the material weaknesses described below.


Material Weaknesses


1.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.  In making this assessment, our management used the framework set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework.”  Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on this framework.


Management evaluated the impact of ineffective control over financial reporting and concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness.


2.

In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2010, our independent registered public accounting firm, DeJoya Griffith & Company, LLC, reported to our Board of Directors that they observed inadequate review and approval of certain aspects of the accounting process that they considered to be a material weakness in internal control.


After a review of our current review and approval of certain aspects of the accounting process, management concluded that the inadequate review and approval process represented a material weakness.


3.

Our Management noted an additional Material Weakness resulting from the following:

a.

During the year ended September 30, 2010, the Company gave an advance of $25,000 to a Senior Officer. It was determined the advance was in contravention of SOX 402 and the Company implemented strict internal controls to avoid a future occurrence.

b.

During the Quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company paid personal expenses for the same Senior Officer in the amount of $34,498 for which the Company expects to be repaid.

Management determined that the strict internal controls implemented were not effective.


(c)  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


We have implemented or will be implementing changes in our internal controls that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting in order to remediate the material weaknesses identified above.  We have commenced the following, which correspond to the two material weaknesses identified above.


1.

In connection with the ineffective assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, management plans to hire additional resources to perform our internal audit and assist with SEC compliance for purposes of all future reporting.


2.

In connection with the reported inadequate review and approval of certain aspects of the accounting process, management has reiterated our current review and approval processes, to ensure that all accounting reconciliations and journal entries are reviewed and approved on a timely basis.
