PART I


Item 1.  Description of Business


Business Development  


Harcom Productions, Inc was originally formed as a Limited Liability Company on February 5, 1999 under the name The Powerhouse, L.L.C., under the laws of the State of Oklahoma. On February 26, 1999 our name was changed to Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. Later, on June 28, 1999, our name was amended to Harcom Productions, L.L.C. when it was discovered that there was a company with a name similar to the one we were using.  Management filed Articles of Conversion on October 2, 2006 changing the company from a Limited Liability Company to a “C” corporation with 1,000,000 shares of common stock authorized at a par value of $0.001 per share.  On October 5, 2006, we filed articles of amendment to the certificate of incorporation changing the shares of stock authorized to 100,000,000 with a new par value of $0.01 per share.  Prior to February 1999 the company operated under the name Training Systems Inc. since 1970.  Training Systems Inc. was founded in 1970 by Robert Tolomeo Sr., Susan Harwell’s father. Mr. Tolomeo, Sr. built the company into the largest radio jingle syndication and on-hold messaging company in the nation up until the mid 1980’s.  In 1999 when Mr. Tolomeo, Sr. sold the company to Shane and Susan Harwell, it had retained its solid reputation and good name in the industry.  Mr. Tolomeo, Sr. requested that Shane and Susan Harwell change the name of the company, but the transaction permitted them to retain the experienced staff, and the non-cash assets of the company including the intellectual property of the music beds and jingles.  Since 1999, the company has maintained a solid reputation with significant clientele and provides a complete suite of turn-key services that offers customers the convenience and cost-efficiency of one-stop sourcing for all of their on hold messaging and radio advertising needs.  Since inception, we have engaged in providing Music-on-Hold and messaging for businesses. We are a brick and mortar company that has a full service recording production studio located in 4,000 square feet of office and studio space. Our rent on this space is month to month at $1,750 per month.   


Currently, we offer professional consulting in Music-on-Hold and messaging services as well some equipment sales and consultation services for commercial clients. All of the work we presently provide that requires actual production of messages we do on site. We do not use anyone on a subcontracted basis.  Our objective is to concentrate our efforts on targeting the same market that we have for nine years to maximize our market penetration.


Our Business


(1) Principal Products or Services and Their Markets


We provide commercial clients with professional Music-on-Hold messaging systems and message content.   We sell our products to business of every kind, including, insurance agencies, funeral homes, mobile home dealers, automobile dealerships, and collision repair shops across the country.  If they have a telephone system with Music-on-Hold capability, they are a potential customer.



3



Harcom’s facility is designed to optimize efficiency in both sales and production of the product.   The Company's team of experienced, qualified employees is able to present the product to the end business user directly over the telephone, play a sample for them, and have the purchasing decision made within minutes.  Information is then taken from the customer over the telephone and entered on to a fact sheet.  The fact sheet is passed to the scriptwriter who merges the custom information on the fact sheet with the generic version of the messages that are most appropriate to that industry to produce “scripts” from which the in house announcer can read.  Our in-house announcer then reads the custom scripts and blends their voice with the music beds that Harcom owns.  The production process takes about three weeks on average, and needs to be improved.  Next, the client is contacted by the sales manager who originally oversaw the initial point of sale and is given the opportunity to hear the finished production over the telephone in order to make any final changes.   Once perfected, the product is then stored in a digital player and shipped to the client and the invoice is generated.  Customers are billed monthly until the invoice is paid in full.  Because of our streamlined sales and delivery system, we offer our products at prices that are 10%-50% less than our competitors in the industry.   For those clients who require a module in order to achieve Music-on-Hold capability on their phone system, they purchase a module from us before we begin production.  This is due to our cost of the modules and businesses needing modules represents approximately 45% of our customer base.  Currently Harcom’s clients are comprised of about 25% independent insurance agents, 20% mobile home dealers, 15% funeral homes, and the remaining 40% are miscellaneous business entities including real estate agents, hardware stores, glass companies, auto body companies, automobile dealerships, and mailing and shipping stores.


Our principal products and services are as follows:


(a) on hold messages as a stand alone product;


(b) on hold converters; and


(c) on hold players.


In addition there are a myriad of other businesses that can utilize our products.  Any business that has more than a single phone line that possesses Music-on-Hold capability is a potential customer.  In our experience, this includes about 88% of the businesses that can be contacted by telephone across the nation.  The range of our customers includes businesses that generate between $70,000 in annual sales to those that generate $15 million in annual sales.  If our potential customer has a marketing budget of at least $5,000 per year, our products fit nicely into the overall marketing scheme.  


Many businesses find that although they may not have initially included Music-on-Hold products into their budget it makes little sense for them to invest heavily in other forms of advertising in an effort to create in-bound telephone calls only to lose a significant opportunity while those callers are placed on hold. On hold messaging provides the opportunity for the business to encourage the caller to be patient and remain on hold until someone can assist them.  Studies have shown that callers will remain on the line an average of sixty seconds longer when the business has messages playing versus no message or music playing while the caller is placed on hold.  In today’s business environment the potential customers who are retained during that 60 seconds of wait time can contribute to a material portion of the sales for that business.  


In addition, custom-crafted messages by Harcom Productions Inc. provide the business with the opportunity to up-sell the caller or cross sell the caller as the messages educate the caller on the variety of products or services that the business offers, some of which the caller was initially not aware. Finally, our on hold messages are an important tool for the small business because all of the music is created in our studios at Harcom Productions.   Since we hold the rights to the music beds, the business owner is never in danger of offending the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP).  ASCAP is the artists’ union that routinely files suit against those who use music written and performed by one of their artists to promote a product or service.  Utilizing the local radio station or a CD produced by an artist or label of any kind as on hold music for inbound callers is a violation of copyright law and puts the user at risk of being the subject of a law suit brought by ASCAP.  So theoretically every business playing Music-on-Hold must utilize a service such as Harcom Productions in order to be in compliance with ASCAP copyright law.   In addition, the business which chooses to use the local radio station as their on hold music runs the risk of playing a commercial for their competitor that is being broadcast over that station while the caller on hold is waiting to receive assistance.


(2) Distribution Methods of the Services


The primary delivery of products and services is through land based delivery and/or mail from our home office location in Tulsa, Oklahoma.


Our sales reps are responsible for business development in their specific industry(ies).  Business contacts are made via telephone and email.  Audio samples are played over the telephone, as each individual phone in our sales office is wired to a digital player for this specific purpose.  Reps can also send audio links via email, or vistors to our website at www.HarcomProductions.com can hear various samples.   Orders come in to the central office and are produced in our studios, and then played back to the customer. Once approved, the messages, and any necessary hardware are shipped to the customer.

(3) Status of Any Publicly Announced New Product or Service.


In fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, we have not developed any new or unique products or services that would make us stand above our competition. While the Internet has provided a new tool for advertising and customer interface during 2008, there has been no significant change in the services we provide. We will be utilizing the Internet as a mainstay of our future advertising and support for our sales representatives.  Additionally our research will be focused on how our competitors are utilizing the internet to provide services to their clients.  We will also be researching this year how to make a segment of our sales force available to other companies who require skilled telesales people to offer their products or services.   These opportunities will be evaluated on a case by case basis by management to insure that the profits achieved by selling the products of another company, are greater than those that are achievable by selling our own products.


(4) Our Competition


In 2008, management maintained their position that in order to compete effectively in the music/message on-hold business, a company must provide a wide range of quality services and products at a reasonable cost. This business market as a whole is characterized by intense competition with a large number of companies offering or seeking to develop services and products that will compete with those that we offer. It is our belief, based upon our experience that the failure rate of small businesses indicates that far too many begin operations prior to having the skills and knowledge necessary for the day-to-day business operations as well as the necessary capital. As a result, we developed our individualized approach to offering music/message on hold services.


Our ability to provide personalized service through our representatives as well through ordering via the Internet takes our services one step beyond typical localized music/message on hold and their offerings. The small, localized providers primarily operate within their own geographic confines and do not directly compete with us in all the geographic areas within which we operate. We believe we compete favorably with the firms that provide products and services similar to ours because those firms still focus on providing products and services through a brick and mortar facility only. While each localized provider could conceivably be considered a competitor, realistically they compete more on a local geographic basis. The typical provider locates in an area that has the demographics to support the business. As a result of our nine years of operations we have a strong, loyal customer base. Due to the strong loyalty demonstrated previously by clients to our Company we do not feel there is a threat from local providers “stealing” our customers.


However, many of our competitors who have also taken a national distribution approach similar to ours,  have greater financial resources than we have, enabling them to finance acquisition and development opportunities or develop and support their own operations. In addition, many of these companies can offer bundled, value-added, or additional services not provided by Harcom.   Many may also have greater name recognition. Our competitors may have the luxury of sacrificing profitability in order to capture a greater portion of the market. They may also be in a position to pay higher prices than we would for the same expansion and development opportunities. Consequently, we may encounter significant competition in our efforts to achieve our internal and external growth objectives.


Our competitors may have methods of operation that have been proven over time to be successful. Our last search on the internet in June 2008, found over 300 companies that produce and/or sell on hold messaging services. However, Harcom possesses a solid position in the industry due to our experienced sales force and quality products which are competitively priced.  We are able to present the product to the end business user directly over the telephone, play a sample for them, and have the purchasing decision made within minutes.


The three main competitors that we encounter on a regular basis as we approach potential customers are Impressions on Hold, Muzac, and Applied Media Technologies.  These are top tier companies who are much larger than Harcom, and have a more sophisticated system of producing the product and making eventual changes to the product on behalf of the client.     Impressions on Hold and Muzac distribute their product through a franchise model.   They have local sales agents in 75 and 200 cities respectively, whereas we conduct business strictly over the telephone.  We have been able to compete with these larger firms, because our pricing structure is about half of theirs.  Currently, Impressions on Hold customers as well as Muzac customers pay around $1200 annually to have their needs met.   


Our competitors provide a face to face sales rep, and installation, for which they charge $250.  Our technical department will often instruct the customer on how to install the digital player directly over the telephone.  This provides the customer with further savings.  Muzac sells their Music-on-Hold messaging for $100 per month.  Again, our price point helps us earn business there.   Applied Technologies is the most competitive of the three as they provide a one minute version vs. Harcom’s six minute version for the same price as Harcom.  Most potential customers don’t know why the extra five minutes of variety is important.  Applied Media Technologies and Impressions on hold were both founded in 1991 and boast revenues of Three Million Dollars annually each.   Muzac was formed in 1947 and generates over One Million Dollars per year in sales.  It is safe to assume these three companies will be around for many years to come.  All three companies not only have a strong internet presence, but provide back-end web technology for the customer to make changes and to communicate with their customer service staff.  Our web site is utilized for sales and marketing, and does not provide this editing feature at this time.



5



Management believes that the key to remaining competitive in 2009 is to keep our price structure where it is today while moving to more of a web based model of service and support.   Our company has often struggled in the past to make it onto the approved vendors list for some of the major insurance companies and Real Estate companies because we did not have a web presence or the ability to take payments via credit cards.  During 2008, we launched an attractive website at www.HarcomProductions.com, and also became approved to take credit cards through our bank.   In 2008, we also approached several national offices to secure “approved vendor” status for their particular business segment.  We gained such approval in four markets out of ten that we approached.  Had it not been for some of those developments, the economic downturn in 2008 would have most likely caused Harcom to cease operations.   


 (5) Sources and Availability of Raw Materials


In 2008, only 25% of our customers utilized compact discs (CDs).  These CD’s  and CD players are readily available at almost any discount office supply or wholesale store, so those “raw materials” are never out of stock in Tulsa.  We currently only ship an average of two CD players per month to our customer base, so most of our materials are the digital recorders and modules.  There are a multitude of blank CD manufacturers, CD player manufacturers, digital module manufacturers, and stereo wire manufacturers, from which we prepare our “pigtail” adaptors for about 5% of our customer base who require those adaptors.  Consequently, if by some occurrence our current suppliers ceased to manufacture these staple items, we could locate another supplier within hours.


The other key aspect of our business requires people who can communicate over the telephone.  This will never be a challenge for us as long as we can pay a competitive wage.  Most job applicants are from the Midwest, providing for a “dialect” that is easy for our clients nationwide to understand.   Also, voice talent for the productions themselves is abundant, especially in the Tulsa area.   The University of Tulsa, Oral Roberts University, Tulsa Broadcasting College, Tulsa Community College, and Oklahoma State University-Tulsa campus all offer undergraduate degrees with a major in Telecommunications and Broadcasting.  These universities along with several local talent agencies insure an abundant supply of “voice talent” from which to choose.  We only need one solid female voice talent who can remain a full time employee, and one male talent to whom we can outsource.  


The same would hold true of writers who are needed to blend the templates of each message with the unique information for each client.  Though our computer program can merge the two, we still require a full time script writer; with an effective command of grammar and syntax.   With the universities in our area and the desire on the part of many writers to maintain steady employment, the resource of writing skill is in abundant supply.


At this time we do not see a critical dependence on any supplier(s) that could adversely effect our operations.


(6) Dependence on Limited Customers


We do not rely on any one or a limited number of customers for our business.  While our target markets are virtually unlimited, we focused on nine main types of businesses in 2008.  Management plans to experiment with three additional vertical markets in 2009 as to determine viability without creating undue strain on the working capital of the Company.  


(7) Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts


Since Harcom holds the rights to the music beds, we must maintain these rights so we are not in violation of copyright law.  ASCAP is the artists’ union that routinely files suit against those who use music written and performed by one of their artists to promote a product or service.   Utilizing the local radio station or a CD produced by an artist or label of any kind as on hold music for inbound callers is a violation of copyright law and runs the risk of being enforced by ASCAP.  So every business playing Music-on-Hold must utilize a service such as Harcom Productions in order to be in compliance with copyright law.


At the present time we own the domain name, HarcomProductions.com, with an annual renewal on that domain name through Network Solutions for thirty five dollars.  Besides that, we do not have any patents, trademarks, licenses (other than the usual business license), franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts. However, in the future, our success may depend in part upon our ability to preserve our trade secrets, obtain and maintain patent protection for our technologies, products and processes, and operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of other parties. However, we may rely on certain proprietary technologies, trade secrets, and know-how that are not patentable. Although we may take action to protect our unpatented trade secrets and our proprietary information, in part, by the use of confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and certain of our contractors, we cannot guarantee that:


(a)   these agreements will not be breached;


(b)  we would have adequate remedies for any breach; or


(c)  our proprietary trade secrets and know-how will not otherwise become known or be independently developed or discovered by competitors.



6



We cannot guarantee that our actions will be sufficient to prevent imitation or duplication of either our products or services by others or prevent others from claiming violations of their trade secrets and proprietary rights.


(8) Need for Government Approval of Principal Products or Services


None of the services we offer require specific government approval. We do have to maintain our corporate status as well as any necessary sales tax and business licenses.


(9) Government Regulation


As a music/message on hold provider, we are subject to a limited variety of local, state, and federal regulations. While we believe that our operations are in compliance with all applicable regulations, there can be no assurances that from time to time unintentional violations of such regulations will not occur. We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations applied to businesses, such as payroll taxes on the state and federal levels. In general, our activities are subject to local business licensing requirements. Our current business requires that we comply with state corporate filings, city or county business license and the necessary business liability insurance. The requirements of these regulations are minimal and do not cause any undue burden.


Changes in the laws and regulations relating to the telecommunications and media industry, however, could impact our business. For example, the Federal Communications Commission could begin to regulate the Internet and online services industry more stringently, which could result in increased costs for us. The laws and regulations applicable to the Internet and to our services are evolving and unclear and could damage our business. There are currently few laws or regulations directly applicable to access to, or commerce on, the Internet. Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that laws and regulations may be adopted, covering issues such as user privacy, defamation, pricing, taxation, content regulation, quality of products and services, and intellectual property ownership and infringement. Such legislation could expose us to substantial liability as well as dampen the growth in use of the Internet, decrease the acceptance of the Internet as a communications and commercial medium, or require us to incur significant expenses in complying with any new regulations.


(10) Research and Development During Last Two Fiscal Years


During the last two fiscal years no money was spent on research and development. We have, however, spent minimal monies on Internet research and development.


(11) Cost and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws


We are not subject to any federal, state or local environmental laws. Our products and services do not contain any materials that have any environmental elements that require special handling or disposal methods.


(12) Our Employees


As of  the close of our fiscal year on December 31, 2008, there were 10 full-time employees and one part time employee of Harcom Productions, Inc.   


Item 2.  Description of Property.


We are a brick and mortar company that has a full service recording production studio located in 3,000 square feet of office and studio space.  Our rent on this space is month to month and totals $1,750 per month.   At a price of $7 per square foot, it is a priced even lower than Class C office space, even though it is Class B space.  We do not own the property.  There is ample parking for all employees and guests, and room for expansion of the sales force by additional seven staff members.


Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.


There are no current or ongoing legal proceedings involving Harcom Productions, Inc., nor are there any of which we are aware.  


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.


During our fourth fiscal quarter that ended December 31, 2008, we submitted one item to a vote of security holders.  On December 3rd we distributed an invitation to the meeting to all shareholders in anticipation of our annual meeting which was held on December 18, 2007.  No proxies were solicited and the board of directors as previously reported to the Commission was re-elected in its entirety.

PART II


Item 5.  Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Small Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.


On March 17, 2008 our common stock was listed for the first time on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “HRCM”.   The first shares were traded at the close of the 2nd quarter of our fiscal year, in late June 2008.   Trading opened at  55 cents per share and remained there for about three weeks.  In the third quarter of  2008, the high bid was .25 per share, with the low bid for that quarter landing at .18 per share.  In the fourth quarter of 2008, the high and low bids were .18 per share.   The source of these quotations is the OTC Bulletin Board as listed on Google Finance.  


Such over the counter market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.


Should a more active market develop for our shares, the trading price of the common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors such as actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results, announcements of technological innovations, new sales formats, or new services by us or our competitors, changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, conditions or trends in Internet or traditional retail markets, changes in the market valuations of other on-hold messaging companies, announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments, additions or departures of key personnel, sales of common stock and other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for business services in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market and industry factors may materially adversely affect the market price of the common stock, regardless of our operating performance.  Consequently, future announcements concerning us or our competitors, litigation, or public concerns as to the commercial value of one or more of our products or services may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially for reasons which may be unrelated to operating results. These fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.


At the present time we have no outstanding options or warrants to purchase securities convertible into common stock.   Cash dividends have not been paid during the last three (3) years. In the near future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The declaration and payment of cash dividends by us are subject to the discretion of our board of directors. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant at the time by the board of directors. We are not currently subject to any contractual arrangements that restrict our ability to pay cash dividends.


As of March 31, 2009 there were 49  holders of record of our common stock and 1,637,500 shares of common stock outstanding.   


Item 6.     Selected Financial Data


As a smaller reporting company as defined by §229.10(f)(1), and per the regulations found in Item 301 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to furnish certain Select Financial Data required by larger reporting companies.  


Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


General Overview


The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis is intended to help the reader understand our company.  It is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes (“Notes”).

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Historical results and trends should not be taken as an indication of future operations. Management's statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “should,” “could,” "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," "prospects," or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of the Company include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, the availability of capital, interest rates, and the competitive environment.  These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the Company and its business; including additional factors that could materially affect the Company's financial results, are included herein, and are included in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-QKSB. This report and the financial statements and notes to financial statements contain forward-looking statements, which generally include the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future economic performance and our current beliefs regarding revenues we might earn if we are successful in implementing our business strategies. The Company does not undertake to update, revise or correct any forward-looking statements.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

  

Our principal sources of liquidity are existing cash, cash generated by our operations, and our ability to borrow cash when needed from a related party as discussed in our Notes to financial statements.   Our principal uses of liquidity are paying the costs and expenses associated with our operations, and servicing outstanding indebtedness.

 

While the capital resources of the company are limited from a cash perspective, the credit of the officers and directors for guaranteeing any loan necessary is extremely strong.  The company has not established any lines of credit with any banks.  In the event a supplier or lender requires additional credit to obtain small equipment or other business supplies, our officers and directors are willing to extend their credit to accomplish the purchase.  The Company has made no commitments for capital expenditures in coming periods.  


Management believes that the overall national economic downturn is having a negative effect on it’s performance.  Many business owners who would have considered our products to be a necessity in better economic times, are now viewing it as an optional luxury.  This is a material trend for a company of our size.  The Company cannot guarantee that profitability will be improved in coming periods.    If earnings do not improve, the Company will have to continue to rely on borrowings from related parties to meet the company’s cash flow requirements or seek outside debt or equity vehicles that can be secured on terms that are favorable to the company.

 

Results of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007


During 2008, the company used $650 of cash in operating activities compared to $16,898 of cash being used by operating activities in 2007.  The main variables contributing to this smaller demand on internally generated cash were a stabilization in the Accounts Receivables balance as compared to a more aggressive depletion of Receivables in 2007.   The company also had an increase of $16,246 in Accrued Liabilities over the prior year, contributing to less cash being required by Operations.  


The company faced significant setbacks in profitability in 2008.  Net losses for the year ending December 31, 2008 were ($108,683) as compared to net losses for the prior year of ($78,367).    While this 28% increase in the net loss for the year is a cause of concern for Management, of greater concern are two years of combined net losses of ($187,050). The Company has continued to borrow working capital from a related party as discussed in our Notes to Financials.   How long the related party will be willing to extend capital to the Company,  without a formal agreement in place or without profitable results in coming periods is unclear at this point in time.

Revenues:


For the year ended December 31, 2008, total revenues (excluding other revenue from consulting project)  were $377,059 as compared to total revenues of $433,981 for the same period in 2007.  This represents a decrease of 13%.  The bulk of this decrease occurred in the first quarter of 2008, as the decrease in revenues for the first quarter of 2008 as compared to the same period for the prior year was $63,026, or 46%.  Management attributes this decrease to one key factor.  Our General Manager, Charles Harwell was in poor health during this first quarter, causing him to be absent from the daily operations of the Company fairly consistently.  Since he is the key individual to whom employees look for leadership and final decisions on an operational level, when he is not present, it has a substantial effect on the morale of the employees, especially those on the sales team.  As his health improved, and Susan Harwell, an Officer and Director of the Company became involved in the daily operations of the Company in March of 2008, the revenues began to stabilize.  Over the final three fiscal quarters of 2008, the revenues of the Company were $6104 higher as a total than the same final three quarters in 2007.  


The national economy in the fourth quarter of 2008 had a significant effect on the ability of the Company to generate revenue.  Even with Susan Harwell and Charles Harwell working in concert, our revenues landed at $62,217 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $70,064 for the quarter ended December 31, 2007.   


The launching of the Harcom Productions website has not had the material effect on revenues that Management had hoped to see in 2008.  Management is currently seeking a low cost solution to create search engine optimization, so that when businesses are seeking telephone on hold messages, the name of the Company will appear higher in the listings on Google and other search engines.    The decrease in revenues for 2008 over prior periods has definitely had a negative effect on the liquidity and capital position of the Company.  If Management’s plans to expand the internet presence of the company while hiring one or two additional telephone sales representatives in future periods do not have a significant effect on future profits, the company will have to continue to borrow money from a related party as discussed in our Notes to Financials.   How long the related party will be willing to extend capital to the Company without a formal agreement in place is unclear at this point in time.     


Cost of Goods Sold:


For the year ended December 31, 2008 the Cost of Goods Sold figure was $135,069 as compared to $154,201 for the same period in 2007.  However, as a percentage, in 2008 the Cost of Goods Sold figure comprised 35.8% of Total Revenue while in 2007 it represented 35.5% of Total Revenue.  The difference as a percentage of revenue is immaterial.  Research is currently being conducted to ascertain whether or not another supplier can provide the digital units at a lower cost.  Despite significant efforts over the last quarter of 2008, the Company has not been able to find a less expensive supplier without making a significant compromise in terms of quality.  The Company cannot guarantee that an alternative supplier will be able to provide the units at a lower cost, and is unwilling to compromise on the quality that customer’s will receive, and therefore Management believes that Cost of Goods sold as a percentage of revenue will only decrease as a result of technology improvements by digital player manufacturers, or some other event beyond the current control of the Company.  


Operating Expenses:


The only material change the Company experienced in Operating Expenses was Medical Insurance dropping from $9494 in 2007 to only $1655 in 2008.  This can be attributed to Charles Harwell moving off of the Company’s health insurance plan and onto Medicare and Medicaid.  


Consulting Revenues:


In 2008, the Company was able to earn Consulting Fees for the first time in our history.  These fees of $25,500 in 2008 as opposed to zero in prior years, resulted from an outside project whereby a technology firm wanted to utilize a small call center to sell their streaming services.    Through a prior relationship that existed between Shane Harwell, our President, and Propeller consulting, the agreement was formed for this three month project.  Unfortunately, the firm ran out of capital, and Harcom was not re-engaged to assist with this product any longer.  The Company remains open to future consulting work of this nature, and Shane Harwell continues to seek opportunities for Harcom to assist other company’s with their endeavors, as long as Management deems that the human resources being re-directed toward outside products and projects will result in greater profitability for the Company than remaining focused on the Company’s core product line.

Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.


Harcom Productions, Inc. is a  smaller reporting company, as defined by §229.10(f)(1), and per the regulations found in Item 305 of Regulation S-K, is not required to provide this information.


Item 8.    Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.


The Financial Statements of the Company called for by this item are contained in a separate section of this report.  See “Index to Consolidated Financial Statements” on Page F-1.


Item 9.  Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.


There are no disagreements, nor have there been any disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.


On May 2, 2007, Harcom Productions, Inc. (“Registrant”) dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Killman, Murrell & Company, P.C. (“Killman”). The reports of Killman on the financial statements of the Registrant as of December 31, 2005 and for the two years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles other than an explanatory paragraph as to a going concern.


The decision to change independent registered public accounting firms was approved by the Board of Directors of the Registrant. During the Registrant’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods through May 2, 2007, there were no disagreements with Killman on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Killman, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements for such years.


On May 7, 2007, the Registrant engaged Li & Company, PC as its new independent certified public accounting firm to conduct an audit of the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006. This action was previously approved by the company’s Board of Directors.   


On August 20, 2007, Harcom Productions, Inc. (“Registrant”) dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Li & Company, PC (“Li & Company”).  From the period beginning May 7, 2007 when the firm of Li & Company was engaged until August 20, 2007, no reports were produced by the independent accounting firm.  The decision to change independent registered public accounting firms was approved by the Board of Directors of the Registrant.


During the period of engagement, there were no disagreements with Li & Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Li & Company, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements for such years.


 On August 21, 2007 the Registrant engaged Moore & Associates, Chartered Accountants and Advisors as its new independent certified public accounting firm to review the Registrant’s financial statements.  Prior to such engagement, the Registrant did not consult such firm on any of the matters referenced in Regulation S-B Item 304(a)(2).


Item 9A(T).  Controls and Procedures


As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures was carried out by the Company under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer.  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed and are being operated in a manner that provides reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  A system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Harcom Productions Inc.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


ur management is responsible for establishing ad maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:


Pertain to the maintenance of records that is in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets


Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in  accordance with authorizations of our management and directors: and

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


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.


Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s Internal Control over financial reporting as of 12/31/07. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in this Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of 12/31/07, our Internal control over financial reporting was effective at a reasonable assurance level based on these criteria.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.  

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Background of Executive Officers and Directors


- Shane Harwell has served as our President/Chairman of the Board of Directors since our incorporation in October 2006, prior to which he was our Member/Manager since February 1999.  Mr. Harwell began his tenure at the company being responsible for all of the day-to-day operations. This included sales, running of the audio studio, bookkeeping/accounting and the maintenance of the equipment. The responsibility of hiring and training all new employees fell on Mr. Harwell. He developed the necessary job descriptions and company manual providing all the policies and procedures of the company.  In coordination with his accountants, he set the internal controls over the accounting and financial management of the company.  Shane Harwell was the member/manager of Harcom LLC with 50% ownership of the units since February 1999.   When the conversion to a C corporation occurred in October 2006, Mr. Harwell was President and Secretary and appointed to the Board of Directors in the Articles.  Mr. Harwell has been involved in the production and distribution of audio and visual tools to businesses since 1988.  In 1987 Mr. Harwell graduated Summa Cum Laude from Oral Roberts University in 3.5 years with a 3.9 GPA and a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting.  Immediately following graduation, for four years, he served as General Manager of Training Systems Inc., the largest producer and distributor of radio jingles in the nation at that time.  Training Systems Inc. was owned by Mr. Harwell’s father in law, Robert A Tolomeo, who mentored Mr. Harwell during that time passing on twenty years of experience in the industry.  During that mentorship Mr. Harwell learned all aspects of the business and made improvements and management changes where needed.  This included the accounting and administration area, order processing, production, sales, and playback.  


From 1992 to 2000 Mr. Harwell transferred his skills from the business sector to the non- profit sector.  Serving as Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Impact Productions in Tulsa, Oklahoma  he began his sales force with one part time staff member and built it into a full time staff of 60 people as they became the largest producers and distributors of outreach television  commercials for churches in the nation.  In 2001 his marketing team was purchased in an acquisition by Faith Highway, a Delaware Corporation based in Austin, Texas.   During his last six months of employ with Impact Productions in 2001, Mr. Harwell spent thirty hours a week for six months on site at Harcom Productions, as his father, Charles Harwell took the reins.   Faith Highway purchased the group at Impact under the stipulation that Mr. Harwell remain in charge of the large marketing force.  In 2002, Mr. Harwell was promoted to President of Faith Highway, and he served in that capacity until 2005.   During his tenure there, Faith Highway became the largest producer and syndicator of websites for churches, while remaining the top production company for outreach television commercials. In 2005, Shane Harwell was re-hired by Impact Productions and remained in their employ through 2008.  Neither Impact Productions nor FaithHighway are a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of Harcom Productions, Inc.  


- Susan Harwell has served as our Treasurer and as a Director since October 2006.  From February 1999 to present, Ms. Harwell helped shape the process in the playback department, production department and the billing and administrative areas.  She has been involved in the music/message on hold industry for over twenty years.  Her expertise is in the areas of office administration and production of the audio products themselves.  Susan Harwell is the wife of our President, Shane Harwell and is on site no less than 30 hours each week.

In 2000, Mr. Harwell began working for Harcom Productions as the General Manager.  He spent several months working alongside of Susan Harwell, (his daughter in law), who has been working in and around this specific industry for twenty years.   Mr. Harwell quickly mastered the nuances of the office administration system as well as the production and delivery systems of the audio products themselves.  In early 2001, our President Shane Harwell worked alongside of Mr. Charles Harwell sharing his expertise in recruiting and sales training.   Charles Harwell has kept the company on a steady course while managing all day to day activities of the company since 2001.    Mr. Charles Harwell is the father of our President Mr. Shane Harwell.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


As a small business issuer we are not listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent. We have not applied for a listing with a national exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent. We are not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act respecting any director. We have conducted regular quarterly Board of Director meetings on the second business Friday of the appropriate month which closes the quarter. Each of our directors has attended all meetings.

Audit Committee’s pre-approval process.  


We do not have an audit committee that is comprised of any independent director. As a company with less than $1,000,000 in revenue we rely on our President Shane Harwell for our audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. Our Board of Directors acts as our audit committee. The Board has determined that the relationship of Mr. Harwell as both our company President and our audit committee financial expert is not detrimental to the Company. Mr. Harwell has a complete understanding of GAAP and financial statements; the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves in a fair and impartial manner; has experience analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to or exceed the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the small business issuer’s financial statements; an understanding of internal control over financial reporting; and an understanding of audit committee functions. Mr. Harwell has gained this expertise through his formal education and experience as our President for over the last eight years. He has specific experience coordinating the financials of the company with public accountants with respect to the preparation, auditing or evaluation of the company’s financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors

Harcom Productions, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Harcom Productions, Inc., as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Harcom Productions, Inc., as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements, the Company has reported net losses of $108,683 and $78,367 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 respectively, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 11. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Harcom Productions, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2008 and 2007


Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Organization and Nature of Operations


Harcom Productions, Inc. was incorporated in 1999 in the state of Oklahoma.  The Company’s headquarters are located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  In early 1999, the Company executed a Purchase Agreement to acquire the operating and intangible assets of an existing production company from a related party.  As such, the Company has since operated as a production company specializing in on hold messaging for all types of companies.  


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers highly liquid investments (those readily convertible to cash) purchased with original maturity dates of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Income Taxes


In 2006 The Company was treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.  Consequently, federal income taxes were not payable by the Company.  Members were taxed individually on their shares of the Company’s earnings.  The Company’s net income or loss was allocated among the members in accordance with the regulations of the Company.


In 2007 The Company had completed its conversion to a C-Corporation under the laws of the state of Oklahoma. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due.  Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). Under SFAS No. 109 income taxes are recognized for the following: i) amount of taxes payable for the current year, and ii) deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements than for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established using statutory tax rates and are adjusted for tax rate changes. SFAS 109also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.


Allowance for Doubtful Accounts


It is the Company's policy to provide an allowance for doubtful accounts when it believes there is a potential for non-collectability.  For the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $5,379 and $5,688 respectively.  These totals are based upon management’s analysis of possible bad debts.  This analysis was based on a two year study of bad debt as it relates to Receivables.


Revenue Recognition


Costs of Goods Sold costs include all direct equipment, material, shipping costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred.  Changes in contract performance, contract conditions, and estimated profitability that may result in revisions to costs and income are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.


For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition," which superseded SAB No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB No. 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. SAB No. 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-21, "Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements." EITF No. 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing EITF No. 00-21 on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not significant. This issue addresses determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more than one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be



F-8



measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting. EITF No. 00-21 became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in periods beginning after June 15, 2003.



F-9



For those contracts which contain multiple deliverables, management must first determine whether each service, or deliverable, meets the separation criteria of EITF No. 00-21. In general, a deliverable (or a group of deliverables) meets the separation criteria if the deliverable has standalone value to the customer and if there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the remaining deliverables in the arrangement. Each deliverable that meets the separation criteria is considered a "separate unit of accounting." Management allocates the total arrangement consideration to each separate unit of accounting

based on the relative fair value of each separate unit of accounting. The amount of arrangement consideration that is allocated to a unit of accounting that has already been delivered is limited to the amount that is not contingent upon the delivery of another separate unit of accounting. After the arrangement consideration has been allocated to each separate unit of accounting, management applies the appropriate revenue recognition method for each separate unit of accounting as described previously based on the nature of the arrangement. All deliverables that do not meet the separation criteria of EITF No. 00-21 are combined into one unit of accounting, and the appropriate revenue recognition method is applied.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.


Long-Lived Assets


Equipment is stated at cost and depreciated over a useful life of 7 years.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as incurred.  When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the asset and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with the resulting gain or loss being reflected in results of operations.


Intangible assets include intellectual property rights which were valued at the date of acquisition by management and amortized over 15 years.  


Management assesses the recoverability of equipment and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from its future undiscounted cash flows.  If it is determined that an impairment has occurred, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value.


New Accounting Standards


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financials statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy).    The sources of accounting principles that are generally accepted are categorized in descending order of authority as follows.  First, FASB Statements, Interpretations, Implementation Issues, Staff Positions, and AICPA Research Bulletins and Board Opinions.  Next, FASB Technical Bulletins, and if cleared by the FASB, AICPA Industry Audit and Accounting Guides and Statements of Position.  Third, AICPA Accounting Standards Executive Committee Practice Bulletins that have been cleared by the FASB, and finally, Implementation guides (Q & As) published by the FASB staff, AICPA Accounting Interpretations, AICPA Industry Audit and Accounting Guides an Statements of Position not cleared by the FASB, and practices that are widely recognized and prevalent either generally or in the industry.  


This Statement shall be effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of  Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  Once effective, the application of this statement shall apply to all entities whose effective date is after March 15, 1992.  Any effect of applying the provisions of this statement shall be reported as a change in accounting principle.  The company has applied these provisions, and they have had no impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 or prior periods.  


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.  Under the provisions of SFAS No. 159, the Company may choose to carry many financial assets and liabilities at fair values with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.  The company elected not to make this choice.  



F-10



In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standard s Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN No. 48).  This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  The company adopted the pronouncement for periods after July 1, 2007 and the pronouncement had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, a standard that provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities.   The standard applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value.  The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.  This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including financials statements for an interim period within that fiscal year.  The Company adopted this pronouncement effective for periods beginning after January 1, 2008.  It had no material effect upon the financial statements of the company.  


In November 2007, the FASB issued FSP Nos. FAS 115-1 and 124-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments". This FSP addresses the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether the impairment is 'other-than-temporary', and the measurement of an impairment loss. The investment is impaired if the fair value is less than cost. The impairment is 'other-than-temporary' for equity securities and debt securities that can contractually be prepaid or otherwise settled in such a way that the investor would not recover substantially all of its cost. If 'other-than-temporary', an impairment loss shall be recognized in earnings equal to the difference between the investment's cost and its fair value. The guidance in this FSP is effective in reporting years beginning after December 15, 2005.


In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”.  This statement replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” and supersedes ABP Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”.  It establishes accounting standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services.  The statement requires companies to expense the fair value of employee stock options and other equity-based compensation, eliminating the alternative to use APB No. 25’s intrinsic value method.  The statement became effective for the Company on January 1, 2006.  In March 2005, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “Share-Based Payment”, which provides interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123 (R) and certain SEC rules and regulations.  It also provides the SEC staff’s views regarding valuation of share-based payment arrangements.  Management believes that SFAS No. 123 (R) and SAB No. 107 will have an impact on future share-based transactions of the Company but cannot determine the impact at this time.


In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS No. 151 clarifies that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and requires the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. We adopted SFAS No. 151 on January 1, 2006.  There was no material impact on our accounting for inventory costs.


Reclassification


Certain reclassifications may have been made in prior years' financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.


Note 2 – Intangible Assets


The cost to acquire intangible assets in 1999 has been allocated to the assets acquired according to the estimated fair values and amortized over a 15 year life using the straight line method. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, whereby the Company periodically tests its intangible assets for impairment. On an annual basis, and when there is reason to suspect that their values have been diminished or impaired, these assets are tested for impairment, and write-downs will be included in results from operations.  No impairment was identified for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.


The identifiable intangible assets acquired and their carrying values at December 31, 2008 and 2007 are:

Note 5 – Due to Related Parties

As of December 31, 2006, the Company had not made any of the required payments since June 2002.  However, on November 21, 2007 a retroactive amendment to the Contract for Sale was executed.  Per this amendment the prior owners of the company, who are a related party from whom the current President and majority shareholders acquired the company in 1999, agreed to waive any and all payments pertaining to health and automobile costs.  This included all accrued balances as of the date of the Amendment as well as future payments that might have accrued.   


The cancellation of this debt also had a material impact on the interest expense for the company in 2008.  Interest expense was $ 29,585 and $19,253 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 respectively.

Note 10- Going Concern


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However the Company has reported net losses of ($78,367) and ($108,683) for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 respectively.  Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.  It is management's plan to complete and execute a business plan in order to supply the needed cash flow.
