(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Three Months Ended September 30, 2007
(Unaudited - see Notice to Reader)
(Expressed in USA Dollars)
Note 1. INCORPORATION AND OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Toro Ventures Inc. was incorporated on 11 April 2005, under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S.A. Operations, as a development stage company started on that date, i.e., 11 April 2005.
At the period end, the Company has entered into an agreement which grants the Company exclusive rights and license in the provinces of Hubei and Beijing, China to own and operate fast food outlets, and/or sell franchises.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $85,091 to September 30, 2007. This factor creates doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Realization values may be substantially different from the carrying values as shown in these financial statements should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of identifying sources for additional financing for working capital and to fund the ongoing development of the Company's business, and management proposes to develop plans to continue the business as a going concern.
Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Foreign Currency Translation
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USA dollars at the period end exchange rate, non-monetary assets are translated at historical exchange rates and all income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Foreign currency translation adjustments are included in income.
(b) Loss per Share
Loss per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding.
(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The respective carrying value of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial statements include cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans from shareholder. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. Unless otherwise noted, fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand..
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.
(e) Reporting on the costs of start-up Activities
Statement of Position 98-5 (SOP 98-5), "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities," which provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organizational costs, to be expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after 15 December 1998. With the adoption of SOP 98-5, there has been little or no effect on the Company's financial statements.
(f) Investment in Franchise
The investment in a franchise is considered as an intangible asset with a finite life of 10 years. In accordance to FAS-142, the intangible asset has been evaluated for impairment by using discounted expected cash flows. No impairment of the intangible asset existed and as a result there is no amortization provided in the current period. The impairment, if any, will be will be tested and evaluated at least on an annual basis for impairment.
The investment in a franchise is stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is recorded at the following rates, based on upon the useful life of the asset:
Investment in Franchise - Straight-Line method over the useful life of the asset
September 30, 2007 | Cost | Accumulated Amortization | Net Book Value |
Investment in Franchise | $25,000 | $5,625 | $19,375 |
(g) Future Income Taxes
The company recognizes income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Future income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statements and bases using enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expressed to affect taxable income.
(h) Year End
The Company has adopted 30 June as its fiscal year end.
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2007.
NOTE 3: Investment in Franchise
On 15 May 2005 the company entered into an agreement with a Canadian company to acquire the right to establish franchise outlets in parts of the People's Republic of China. The agreement is for 10 years with an option to renew for an additional 10 years after the termination of the initial term. The consideration given for the Right is 275,000 common shares. In addition a 5% royalty is to be paid on all outlet gross sales to the franchisers along with 3% advertising royalty on all outlet gross sales.
At the period end, management believes that there is no impairment of value in the investment, because, the franchise agreement was signed just before the fiscal period end and management performed a calculation using discounted cash flow analysis, to support the lack of impairment. Furthermore, the Company is actively seeking a location for the first franchisee in the Provinces of Hubei or Beijing.
NOTE 4: Share Capital
Authorized - 75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share.
Issued - 5,845,000 common shares at varying subscription prices.

The Company has not recorded a corresponding future tax asset.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis provides information which management of Toro Ventures Inc. (the "Company") believes to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with the Company's financial statements and the notes to financial statements, which are included in this report.
Caution about Forward-Looking Statements
This management's discussion and analysis or plan of operation should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of the Company for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. Because of the nature of a relatively new and growing company the reported results will not necessarily reflect the future.
This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
Overview
Toro Ventures Inc. ("Toro") intends to commence operations as fast food service company . Toro currently owns the exclusive franchisee rights in the provinces of Hubei and Beijing in China to the Big-On-Burgers Restaurants, a Canadian based fast-food service provider of traditional North American cuisine such as hamburgers and fries. We plan to begin operations of a Big-On-Burgers store in China once sufficient investment capital is raised.
Results of OperationsThe Company experienced general and administration expenses of $3,679 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The majority of the expenses were related to facilities costs for the Company, which totaled $3,00.00 for the quarter.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the company experienced a net loss of $3,679, and of the period from April 11, 2005 to September 30, 2007, the company experienced a net loss of $85,091.
Liquidity and Capital ResourcesDuring the three month period ended September 30, 2007, the Company satisfied its working capital needs by using cash generated from operations and equity from shareholder's initial seed financing. As of September 30, 2007, the Company has cash on hand in the amount of $904. Management does not expect that the current level of cash on hand will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve month period. In the event that additional funds are required to maintain operations, our officers and directors have agreed to advance us sufficient capital to allow us to continue operations. We may also be able to obtain loans from our shareholders, but there are no agreements or understandings in place currently.
We believe we will require additional funding to expand our business and ensure its future profitability. We anticipate that any additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing. In the event we are not successful in selling our common stock, we may also seek to obtain short-term loans from our director.
