In the first quarter ending March 31, 2011, revenue increased to $304,037 from $139,320 over Q1 2010, representing a 118% increase. The increase in revenue was largely due to the increase in Women's footwear sales of 629%. Women's footwear sales increased to $172,852 from $23,685 for the same period in 2010. Gross profit increased 118% to $90,983 from $41,750 in the same period 2010. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to increased sales.

Cost of goods sold for the first quarter 2011 was $213,054 compared to $97,570 for the same period 2010. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to an increase in sales.

Operating expenses consist of sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses increased by $148,960, or 60%, from $248,685 for 2010 to $397,645 for 2011. A large portion of this increase, $54,175 or 47% was a result of accounting and legal fees associated with the Company's public accounting audit necessitated by the reverse merger into a public company.

Loss from operations was $(306,662) for 2011, compared to a loss from operations of $(206,935) for the same period 2010, an increase of $(99,727) or 48%.

"Having just taken the company public in February, the numbers are already showing an exciting trajectory of growth. As we continue to forge new alliances with both retail and strategic partners, we will increase the brands visibility and distribution with an eye on making Auri into a globally recognized brand and one that owns a unique and distinctly own able place in the consumer mindset."
