Crown Equity Holdings, Inc.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Crown Equity Holdings Inc. (“Crown Equity”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Crown Equity’s December 31, 2011 Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end December 31, 2011 as reported on Form 10-K, have been omitted. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, Crown Equity has an accumulated deficit of $8,776,547 as of June 30, 2012. Unless profitability and increase in shareholders equity continues, these conditions raise substantial doubt as to Crown Equity's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if Crown Equity is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are presented in the balance sheet at fair market value.

Per Accounting Standards Codification 820 “Fair Value Measurement”, fair values defined establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements.

ASC 820 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data
 
 
6

 

Crown Equity has classified these marketable securities at level 1 with a fair value of $155,000 and $562,400 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Per Accounting Standards Codification 825 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”, an entity is permitted to irrevocably elect fair value on a contract-by-contract basis for new assets or liabilities within the scope of ASC 825 as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for those financial assets and liabilities and certain other items including property and casualty insurance contracts. Entities electing the fair value option are required to (i) recognize changes in fair value in earnings and (ii) expense any up-front costs and fees associated with the item for which the fair value option is elected. Entities electing the fair value option are required to distinguish, on the face of the statement of financial position, the fair value of assets and liabilities for which it has elected the fair value option, and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. An entity can accomplish this either by reporting the fair value and non-fair-value carrying amounts as separate line items or by aggregating those amounts and disclosing parenthetically the amount of fair value included in the aggregate amount.

Crown Equity adopted ASC 825 during the third quarter of fiscal 2009 and elected the fair value option for their marketable securities.

NOTE 4 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company provides various consulting services to companies and individuals dealing with corporate structure and operations globally. Crown Equity’s revenue is recognized pursuant to ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition.” The Company recognizes its revenue from services as those services are performed. Revenue recognition is limited to the amount that is not contingent upon delivery of any future product or service or meeting other specified performance conditions. Product sales, accounted for within fulfillment services, are recognized upon shipment to the customer and satisfaction of all obligations.

Contract revenues include royalties under license and collaboration agreements. Contract revenue related to technology licenses is fully recognized only after the license period has commenced, the technology has been delivered and no further involvement of Crown Equity is required.

Crown Equity receives payment for its services in both cash and equity instruments issued by the customer.  The equity instruments are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” and is based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the date on which they are received by Crown Equity.

Amounts received for revenue not earned as of period end are accounted for as deferred revenues. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was zero and $193,219, respectively of deferred revenue.

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

OVERVIEW

Crown Equity Holdings Inc. (”Crown Equity”) was incorporated in August 1995 in Nevada. The Company is offering its services to companies seeking to become public entities in the United States. It has launched a website, www.crownequityholdings.com, which offers its services in a wide range of fields. The Company provides various consulting services to companies and individuals dealing with corporate structure and operations globally. The Company also provides public relations and news dissemination for publicly and privately held companies.

In December, 2010, the Company formed two wholly owned subsidiaries Crown Tele Services, Inc. and Crown Direct, Inc.  Crown Tele Services, Inc. was formed to provide voice over internet (“VoIP”) services to clients at a competitive price and Crown Direct, Inc. was formed to provide direct sales to customers.  Both entities had minimum sales during the quarter.

In March, 2011, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary CRWE Real Estate, Inc. as a subsidiary to engage in potential real estate holdings. The entity had minimal activity during the quarter.

The Company has focused its primary vision to using its network of websites to provide advertising and marketing services, as a worldwide online media advertising publisher, dedicated to the distribution of quality branding information. The Company offers Internet media-driven advertising services, which cover and connect a wide range of marketing specialties, as well as search engine optimization for clients interested in online media awareness.  As part of its operations, the Company has utilized the services of software and hardware technicians in developing its websites and adding additional websites.  This allows the Company to disseminate news and press releases for its customers as well as general news and financial information on a much bigger scale than it did previously.  The Company markets its services to companies seeking market awareness of them and the services or goods that they offer.  The Company then publishes information concerning these companies on its many websites.  The Company is paid in cash and/or stock of the customer companies. The Company has numerous consulting and service customers and is therefore not dependent on any particular customer for a majority of its revenue.

Crown Equity’s office is located at 5440 West Sahara, Suite 205, Las Vegas, Nevada 89146.

As of June 30, 2012, Crown Equity had no employees and utilizing the services of 2 independent contractors and consultants.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three month and six month period ending June 30, 2012, revenues were $20,281 and $215,714 and for the same periods in 2011, revenues were $1,043,647 and $1,388,879 respectively. A net loss of $455,607 and $538,817 was recorded for the three and six month period ending June 30, 2012 compared to net income of $1,530,701 and $29,775 for the same periods in 2011. The net loss for the three and six month period ending June 30, 2012 consisted of an operating loss of $35,142 and $112,568 compared to operating income of $609,587 and $166,448  in the same period in 2011.  Other expenses for the three and six month period ending June 30, 2012 were $420,465 and $426,249.  This compared to other income of $921,114 for the three month period and other expenses of $136,673 for the six month period in 2011. We incurred an unrealized loss during the three and six months ending June 30, 2012 of $397,600 and $402,000 compared to an unrealized gain of $924,938 and unrealized loss of $112,866 for the three and six month period ending June 30, 2011. These unrealized gains and losses were a significant part of the variation in net income and loss between periods.

General and administrative expense decreased to $51,887 and $320,219 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from $426,711 and $1,209,683 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The reduction of payroll and consulting services in 2012 was the majority of the decrease from year to year.  Interest expense incurred during the three and six month period ending June 30, 2012 was $2,856 and $5,972 compared $2,930 and $5,860 for the same period in 2011.

Crown Equity will attempt to carry out its business plan as discussed above; however, it cannot predict to what extent its capital resources could hinder its business plan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2012, Crown Equity had current assets of $180,880 and current liabilities of $219,042, resulting in negative working capital of $38,162.  Stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2012 was $2,337.

Net cash used in operations for the six months ending June 30, 2012 was $154,609 compared to net cash used of $573,998 for the same period in 2011, a decrease of $412,190.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ending June 30, 2012 was $4,194 compared to net cash provided of $382,875 for the same period in 2011, a negative variance of $378,681. The cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was due to the sale of stock received in payment for work completed by the Company.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $77,200 compared to net cash provided of $600,000 in 2011, a decrease of $522,800. The change was due primarily to the issuance of Series A convertible preferred shares for $600.000 during 2011.

Our existing capital may not be sufficient to meet Crown Equity's cash needs, including the costs of compliance with the continuing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  This condition raises substantial doubt as to Crown Equity's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if Crown Equity is unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 3:   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

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

ITEM 4T:    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a)  
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures(as defined in Rule 13a-15e under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 the "Exchange Act"), our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures. The material weakness relates to the lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting, as our financial reporting and all accounting functions are performed by an external consultant with no oversight by a professional with accounting expertise.  Our CEO and CFO do not possess accounting expertise and our company does not have an audit committee.  This weakness is due to the company’s lack of working capital to hire additional staff.  To remedy this material weakness, we intend to engage another accountant to assist with financial reporting as soon as our finances will allow.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Except as noted above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our first quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
