Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Acquired Sales Corp. (the “Company”) were prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management of the Company (“Management”) believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2009 included in the Company’s Form 10-K report.

These unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of Management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2010 or for any other period.

Note 2: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. In August 2001, the Company ceased all of its prior operations and remained dormant from then until May 27, 2004 when it began new development stage activities.

Development stage enterprise – The Company is a development stage enterprise and has not engaged in any operations that have generated any revenue. The Company’s efforts have been devoted primarily to raising capital, borrowing funds and attempting to enter into a reverse acquisition with an operating entity.

Use of estimates – These unaudited condensed financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require that Management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The use of estimates and assumptions may also affect the reported amounts of revenues (if any occur in the future) and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Basic and diluted loss per share of common stock – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares. There were 175,000 warrants outstanding at December 31, 2009 and 2008 that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Business condition – The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company had no revenue, had a net loss of $5,506, and use $3,689 of cash in its operating activities. During this same period the Company received $10,000 from the issuance of an unsecured note payable to a related party. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if the Company were to no longer be a going concern. The Company's ability to meet its ongoing financial requirements is dependent on Management being able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, the realization of which is not assured.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements (continued)

Note 3 – Letter Agreement and Warrants

Effective as of August 2007, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with a private merchant bank to provide certain services related to the identification, evaluation and financing of potential acquisitions by the Company. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the merchant fulfilled their obligation to provide services on December 31, 2007. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid a one-time $20,000 fee and prepaid accountable expenses of $10,000. In addition, the Company issued warrants exercisable for 175,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share. The Company valued these warrants at August 2007 at $11,970 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: 150% volatility; risk free interest rate of 6.25%; 0% yield; and 3.0 year estimated life and charged this amount to expense. Under certain conditions and events, the Company may become obligated to make additional cash payments of six percent of the gross proceeds of an equity investment and three percent of the gross proceeds of a debt investment received by the Company and two percent of the consideration received by the Company as a transactional fee. The Company may also be required to issue additional warrants exercisable at the same price as shares being issued in an equity investment.

Note 4 – Note Payable to Related Party

During January 2009 and again in November 2009, the Company issued an unsecured demand promissory note to the spouse of one of the directors, who is also the current sole officer of the Company, in the amounts of $10,000 each. These notes bear interest at 10% per annum. During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company incurred interest expense of $396 and made cash payments of $478 for interest. At December 31, 2009, at total of $20,000 was due and no interest was accrued and unpaid.

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

Forward Looking Statement Notice

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Acquired Sales Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

The Company is presently operating as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

Results of Operations

For the three months ending December 31, 2009, the Company had no revenues and incurred general and administrative expenses of $5,099.

For the period from inception of our new developmental stage (May 27, 2004) through December 31, 2009, the Company had no activities that produced revenues from operations and has had a net loss of $(153,487) since inception of its new developmental stage and $(5,099) in the three months ended December 31, 2009. These losses are primarily due to legal, accounting, audit and other professional service fees incurred in relation to corporate governance and SEC-related compliance matters.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had assets equal to $6,342 comprised nearly exclusively of cash. The Company had current liabilities of $24,264 as of December 31, 2009. On January 30, 2009 and again in November 2009, the Company issued an unsecured demand promissory note to the spouse of one of the directors, who is also the current sole officer of the Company. The principal amount of the notes is $10,000 each and bear interest at 10% per annum. During the three months ended December 31, 2009, the Company incurred interest expense of $396 and made cash payments of $478 for interest. At December 31, 2009, at total of $20,000 was due and no interest was accrued and unpaid.

The following is a summary of the Company's cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities:

For the Cumulative Period from Inception of our new developmental stage (May 27, 2004) through December 31, 2009.

				For the period
				May 27, 2004
				(Date of Inception

	Ended			Stage) through
	December 31, 2009			December 31, 2009

Net Cash (Used) by Operating Activities	$	(3,689	)	$	(153,487	)
Net Cash (Used) by Investing Activities	$	-		$	-
Net Cash (Used) Provided by Financing Activities:	$	10,000		$	159,810
Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash	$	6,311		$	6,323

The Company has nominal assets and has generated no revenues since inception of our new developmental stage. The Company is also dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan of seeking a combination with a private operating company. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations.

Plan of Operations

The Company currently does not engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be paid with money in our treasury.

During the next twelve months we anticipate incurring costs related to:

(i)

filing of reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and

(ii)

consummating an acquisition.

We believe we will be able to meet these costs through use of funds in our treasury, through deferral of fees by certain service providers and additional amounts, as necessary, to be loaned to or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. However, no such loans or investments have yet been arranged, and the willingness of our stockholders, management or other investors to make such loans or investments, or on reasonable terms, cannot be guaranteed.

The Company may consider a business which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering.

Since the commencement of our new developmental stage, our officers and directors have had limited contact or discussions with representatives of other entities regarding a business combination with us. Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.

The Company anticipates that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking even the limited additional capital which we will have and/or the perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

The United States and North American economies are currently undergoing profound recessions that are negatively affecting our ability to identify, assess, negotiate and finance a potential acquisition. We cannot predict when this recessionary period will end or when the climate for effectively executing our business plan will improve.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

Item 4A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2009. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure and controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended December 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
