CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of accounting policies for CHDT Corporation, a Florida corporation (formerly, “China Direct Trading Corporation”) (“Company” or “CHDT”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Subsidiaries”) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. CHDT changed its name to “CHDT Corporation” by amending its Articles of Incorporation, which name change was effective July 16, 2007 in respect of NASD Regulation, Inc. and OTC Bulletin Board approval of the name
change, the trading symbol change from “CHDT.OB” to “CHDO.OB” and change in CUSIP Number for CHDT Common Stock and effective May 7, 2007 in terms of approval by the State of Florida of the charter amendment.
Organization and Basis of Presentation
CHDT was initially incorporated September 18, 1986 under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name "Yorkshire Leveraged Group, Incorporated", and then changed its domicile to Colorado in 1989 by merging into a Colorado corporation, named "Freedom Funding, Inc." Freedom Funding, Inc. then changed its name to "CBQ, Inc." by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation on November 25, 1998. In May 2004, the Company changed its name from “CBQ, Inc.” to “China Direct Trading Corporation” as part of a reincorporation from the State of Colorado to the State of Florida. Effective May 7, 2007, the Company amended its charter to change its name from “China Direct Trading
Corporation” to “CHDT Corporation.” This name change was effective as of July 16, 2007 for purposes of the change of its name on the OTC Bulletin Board.
Souvenir Direct, Inc. was incorporated on September 9, 2002 under the laws of the State of Florida. On December 1, 2003, CHDT issued 97 million shares common stock to acquire 100% of the outstanding common stock of Souvenir Direct, Inc. in a reverse acquisition. At that time, a new reporting entity was created. Souvenir Direct, Inc. was considered the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes. Also on December 1, 2003, an additional 414,628,300 shares of common stock were issued to the previous owners of the Company. Souvenir Direct, Inc. operations were transferred to Capstone Industries, Inc. in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 and Souvenir Direct, Inc.’s operating assets
were sold on December 1, 2007 to an unaffiliated buyer.
In February 2004, the Company established a new subsidiary, initially named “China Pathfinder Fund, L.L.C.”, a Florida limited liability company. During 2005, the name was changed to “Overseas Building Supply, LLC” to reflect its shift in business lines from business development consulting services in China for North American companies to trading Chinese-made building supplies in South Florida. This business line was ended in fiscal year 2007 and OBS’ name was changed to “Black Box Innovations, L.L.C.” (“BBI”) on March 20, 2008.
On January 27, 2006, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Complete Power Solutions ("CPS") to acquire 51% of the member interests of CPS. CPS was organized by William Dato on September 20, 2004, as a Florida limited liability company to distribute power generators in Florida and adjacent states. The Company subsequently sold its 51% membership interest in CPS, pursuant to a Purchase and Settlement Agreement dated and effective as of December 31, 2006.
On September 13, 2006 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation (Capstone). Capstone was incorporated in Florida on May 15, 1996 and is engaged primarily in the business of wholesaling low technology consumer products to distributors and retailers in the United States.

CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Nature of Business
Since the beginning of fiscal year 2007, the Company has been primarily engaged in the business of developing, marketing and selling consumer products through national and regional retailers and distributors, in North America. Capstone currently operates in four primary business segments: Induction Charged Power Failure Lights, Motion Sensor Lights, Portable Book and Task Lights and Desk Lamps. The Company’s products are typically manufactured in the Peoples’ Republic of China by third-party manufacturing companies.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents, to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An allowance for doubtful accounts is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for bad debts charged to earnings. The allowance for bad debt is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the receivables. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available.
As of December 31, 2010 and through September 30, 2011, management has determined that the accounts receivable are fully collectible. As such, management has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventory
The Company's inventory, which is recorded at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market, consists of finished goods for resale by Capstone, totaling $91,109 and $387,990 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Property and Equipment
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight- line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Computer equipment
|
3 - 7 years
|
Computer software
|
3 - 7 years
|
Machinery and equipment
|
3 - 7 years
|
Furniture and fixtures
|
3 - 7 years
|
Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of, if any, are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. No impairments were recognized by the Company during 2010 and through September 30, 2011.
Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic useful lives.
Depreciation expense was $42,390 and $101,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired, either individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination), are initially recognized and measured based on fair value. Goodwill acquired in business combinations is initially computed as the amount paid by the acquiring company in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired.
The cost of internally developing, maintaining and restoring intangible assets (including goodwill) that are not specifically identifiable, that have indeterminate lives, or that are inherent in a continuing business and related to an entity as a whole, are recognized as an expense when incurred.
An intangible asset (excluding goodwill) with a definite useful life is amortized; an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized until its useful life is determined to be no longer indefinite. The remaining useful lives of intangible assets not being amortized are evaluated at least annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If and when an intangible asset is determined to no longer have an indefinite useful life, the asset shall then be amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life and accounted for in the same manner as other intangibles that are subject to amortization.

CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
An intangible asset (including goodwill) that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible assets with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Goodwill is not amortized.
It is the Company's policy to test for impairment no less than annually, or when conditions occur that may indicate impairment. The Company's intangible assets, which consist of goodwill of $1,936,020 recorded in connection with the Capstone acquisition, were tested for impairment and determined that no adjustment for impairment was necessary as of December 31, 2010, whereas the fair value of the intangible asset exceeds its carrying amount.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. At September 30, 2011 and 2010, the total number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents was157,421,577 and157,271,577 respectively.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 include the accounts of the parent entity and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Black Box Innovations, L.L.C., and Capstone Industries, Inc.
The results of operations attributable to subsidiaries are included in the consolidated results of operations beginning on the date on which the Company’s interest in a subsidiary was acquired.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities at September 30, 2011 and 2010 approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value hierarchy under GAAP distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:
•
|
Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
|
|
•
|
Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
|
|
•
|
Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2010 financial statements to conform to the 2011 presentation. There were no material changes in classifications made to previously issued financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Product sales are recognized when an agreement of sale exists, product delivery has occurred, pricing is final or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
Allowances for sales returns, rebates and discounts are recorded as a component of net sales in the period the allowances are recognized. In addition, accrued liabilities contained in the accompanying balance sheet include accruals for estimated amounts of credits to be issued in future years based on potentially defective product, other product returns and various allowances. These estimates could change significantly in the near term.
Advertising and Promotion
Advertising and promotion costs, including advertising, public relations, and trade show expenses, are expensed as incurred and included in Sales and Marketing expenses. Advertising and promotion expense was $34,652and $106,423for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Shipping and Handling
The Company’s shipping and handling costs, incurred by Capstone amounted to $77,061 and $59,266 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Accrued Liabilities
Accrued liabilities contained in the accompanying balance sheet include accruals for estimated amounts of credits to be issued in future years based on potentially defective products, other product returns and various allowances. These estimates could change significantly in the near term.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS 109 (now ASC 740) requires recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company and its subsidiaries intend to file consolidated income tax returns.

Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payments, SFAS 123(R), (now ASC 718) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and related interpretations, applied for periods through December 31, 2005. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB
107) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the provision of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).
The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first date of the Company’s fiscal year. The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective method, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R).
SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expenses over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss). Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25, as allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123). Under the intrinsic value method, compensation expense under fixed term option plans was
recorded at the date of grant only to the extent that the market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant exceeded the exercise price. Accordingly, for those stock options granted for which the exercise price equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant, no expense was recorded.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. There was no stock-based compensation expense attributable to options for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 for compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not vested as of December 31, 2005. Such stock-based compensation is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123. Compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 are based on the grant date fair value estimated
in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).
In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company adopted the straight-line single option method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense. As stock-based compensation expense is recognized during the period is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it is subject to reduction for estimated forfeitures. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no material amounts subject to forfeiture. The Company has not accelerated vesting terms of its
out-of-the-money stock options, or made any other significant changes, prior to adopting FASB 123(R), Share-Based Payments.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-17 (ASU 2010-17), Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method (Topic 605). ASU 2010-17 provides guidance on applying the milestone method of revenue recognition in arrangements with research and development activities. The amendments in this Update are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company’s adoption of the provisions of ASU 2010-17 did not have a material impact on its revenue recognition.

The amendments in this Update are to provide financial statement users with greater transparency about an entity’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The disclosures about activity that occurs during the reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010.

This Accounting Standards Update modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not
that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance and examples in paragraph 350-20-35-30, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that have recognized goodwill and have one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for purposes of performing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test is zero or negative. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning

Pervasiveness of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and the differences could be material.
NOTE 2 – CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company at times has cash and cash equivalents with its financial institution in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions which minimize these risks. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had no cash in excess of FDIC limits.
Accounts Receivable
The Company grants credit to its customers, substantially all of whom are retail establishments located throughout the United States. The Company typically does not require collateral from customers. Credit risk is limited due to the financial strength of the customers comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across different geographical regions. The Company monitors exposure of credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances.

Capstone Industries
On September 13, 2006 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation (Capstone), engaged in the business of producing and selling portable book lights and related consumer goods, and Stewart Wallach, the sole shareholder of Capstone. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Capstone Common Stock in exchange for $750,000 in cash (funded by a note payable to the Company’s CEO and $1.25 million of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, which Series “B” stock is convertible into 15.625 million “restricted” shares
of CHDT Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (common stock). CHDT has agreed to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to cover conversion of the Series “B” Stock issued to Mr. Wallach in the acquisition of Capstone. Such registration has not been filed as of the date of this Report. CHDT will operate Capstone as a wholly-owned subsidiary. As of the date of this report these share have not been registered.
The Capstone acquisition was recorded as follows:

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $4,300,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2030. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and cause a change in management’s judgment about the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation is reflected in current income.
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The adoption of the provisions of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations. At
January 1, 2008, the company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no accrual for the payment of related interest.
Interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Interest expense, net” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Penalties, if any, would be recognized as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. The Company recognized $0 of interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. In many cases the company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. With few exceptions, the company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for
years before 2008. The following describes the open tax years, by major tax jurisdiction, as of December 31, 2010:

NOTE 10 – CONTINGENCIES
ESQUIRE TRADE & FINANCE INC. & INVESTOR, LLC v. (Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 (SC), decided November 5, 2009) (formerly styled “CELESTE TRUST REG., ESQUIRE TRADE, ET AL. V. CBQ, INC., Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 RMB) (“Celeste case”). The parties settled this case on February 18, 2010. A summary of the settlement is below. A stipulation withdrawing the plaintiff's appeal in the Celeste case was filed with and accepted by
the court on February 8, 2010, which filing effectively ended the litigation in the Celeste case.
The settlement and release provides a mutual, general release of all claims that plaintiffs and Company may have against each other as the date of the release, including any causes of action or claims under the Celeste case and any related proceedings. The settlement provides, in part, that: (1) the parties will seek a court order dismissing the Celeste case; (2) the parties will release each other from any and all claims and causes of action in or related to the Celeste case or the pending appeal to the U.S. Circuit Court for the Second Circuit; (3) the plaintiffs will pay $100,000 towards the Company’s legal fees incurred in the Celeste case; (4) the Company will support the release of shares
of Company Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, (“Common Stock”) owned of record by Networkland, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“NET”) and Technet Computer Services, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“TECH”) to the plaintiffs or their designees (each such block of Common Stock was sought by the plaintiffs in the Celeste case as part of their claims against the Company (collectively, said shares of Common Stock held of record by NET and TECH being referred to as the “N&T Shares”)); (5) the issuance of 350,000 shares of Common Stock owned by Howard Ullman, a director of the Company, to the plaintiffs or their designees; and (6) the granting by Mr. Ullman of a five year option to purchase 20 million shares of Common Stock owned by Mr. Ullman to the plaintiffs or their designees, which option has an exercise price of $0.029 per
share. Under the proposed settlement agreement and release, the Company will grant piggy-back registration rights to the option and underlying shares of Common Stock referenced in (6) above, which rights will be effective after June 1, 2010. The Company will pay all registration fees and legal costs associated with any such registration, which are currently estimated to be approximately $3,000 to $5,000.
The settlement and release, which consists of a settlement agreement and release and option agreement by Mr. Ullman, was negotiated by Mr. Ullman on behalf of the Company with the plaintiffs. Mr. Ullman has provided case administration of the Celeste case for the Company.
The Company believes that the settlement and release is in the best interests of the Company and its public shareholders because (1) it will, when effective, eliminate the possibility of an adverse ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on the plaintiffs’ appeal, which adverse ruling could potentially impose a significant liability on the Company; and (2) the continuation of the Celeste case may discourage potential investors and funding sources from assisting the Company in financing operations and business development as well as make it more difficult to pursue any possible future merger and acquisition transactions.
The Company’s board of directors approved the general terms of the settlement and release on February 1, 2010, but approval and execution of all documents necessary to reaching a settlement and release was not achieved until the February 18, 2010 signing of the option granted by Mr. Ullman. A copy of the settlement agreement and release and the option granted by Mr. Ullman are attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, to the Form 8-K, dated February 19, 2010 and filed by the Company with the Commission on February 22, 2010). The above summary of the settlement agreement and release and option are qualified in its entirety by reference to the proposed settlement agreement and
release as attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the option attached as Exhibit 99.2 to the aforesaid Form 8-K report.

Potential Litigation
Cyberquest, Inc.
As reported previously, the Company has received two claims from certain former shareholders of Cyberquest, Inc. that they hold or own approximately 70,000 shares of a class of the Company's redeemable preferred stock that was issued in the Company's 1998 acquisition of Cyberquest. Cyberquest ceased operations in 2000-2001 periods. The Company has investigated these claims and has not been able to date to fully substantiate any of the ownership claims to date to the preferred stock in question and the claimants have not pursued their claims beyond an initial communication asserting ownership of these shares of serial preferred stock. The Company did not maintain preferred stock ownership records with a
stock transfer agent at the time in question and has to rely on available internal records in this matter. The Company has not received any further claims or communications since mid-2006. Since the Company has no record of the claimants as preferred stock shareholders, the Company is taking the position that they are no shareholders of record and the alleged redeemable preferred stock is not issued and outstanding.
NOTE 11 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company capitalized $11,180 and $18,675 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 respectively, related to packaging artwork and design costs., The Company recognized amortization expense of $14,995 and $44,535 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 respectively, related to these assets. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the net amount of the intangible asset was $15,080 and $18,895, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General – CHDT Corporation, a Florida corporation, (“CHDT,” “Company,” “we,” or “our”) is a public holding company with its Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, (“Common Stock”) quoted on the OTCQB system of The OTC Markets, Inc. under the trading symbol “CHDO.” Prior to February 23, 2011, the Common Stock was quoted on the Bulletin Board of the Over-the-Counter quotation system under the trading symbol “CHDO.OB.” This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Forward Looking Statements
Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, as well as historical information. The expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect or could change with changing circumstances. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors – many of those factors being beyond our control or ability to predict. Forward-looking statements include those that use forward-looking terminology, such as the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,”
“expect,” “intend,” “may,” “project,” “plan,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” and similar expressions, including when used in the negative. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable and achievable at the time made, these statements involve risks and uncertainties and no assurance can be given that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ significantly from anticipated business and financial results. The Company is a “penny stock” under Commission rules and the public stock market price for its Common Stock has been depressed for several consecutive fiscal quarters. The Company’s Common Stock lacks sufficient or active market maker
and institutional investor support in the public market and this lack of support, coupled with successive fiscal quarters of financial losses, means that any increase in the per share price of our Common Stock in the public market is usually eliminated by selling pressure from profit taking by investors. As of October 14, 2011, the Common Stock was trading at above one cent on the Bid, but has consistently traded below one cent for most of fiscal year 2011 to the date of this Report. Investment in our Common Stock is highly risky and should only be considered by investors who can afford to lose their investment and do not require liquidity. Investors should consider risk factors in this Report and other SEC filings of the Company.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by the above and all other applicable factors. We undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, except as required by law, whether to reflect events or circumstances after the date initially filed or published, to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise.
Introduction
The following discussion and analysis summarizes the significant factors affecting: (i) our consolidated results of operations for the three months and year to date ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three months and year to date ended September 30, 2010; and (ii) financial liquidity and capital resources.
Through our operating subsidiaries, we are a developer and manufacturer of niche consumer products selling to distributors and retailers in the United States. Our Capstone subsidiary currently operates in five primary business segments: (1) Portable booklights and multi-task lights. (2) eReader lights. (3) Eco-i-Lite power failure lights and night lights (4) Wireless motion sensor lights (5) Light Ringers® collection of desk lamps and utility lamps.
34
Our growth strategy has six main elements:
|
1.
|
Repurpose through packaging and feature set enhancements, our product lines to meet the needs of departments which we do not currently serve within our existing customer base and
|
|
2.
|
Continue to expand retail distribution and develop lighting products purposed towards distribution channels which we have not heretofore served; and
|
|
3.
|
Explore new technologies that can be applied to products that would expand existing categories and our presence at retail channels; and
|
|
4.
|
Acquiring businesses that have innovative products that would complement our existing marketing strategies or allow the company to diversify into other markets; and
|
|
5.
|
Acquiring businesses that would allow us to diversify into direct consumer or commercial industrial channels; and
|
|
6.
|
Seek to expand retail distribution into overseas distribution channels, particularly in South America, Western Europe and Asia.
|
Capstone Lighting products specialize in low cost, innovative portable lighting products that we believe can continue to win a profitable niche and market share without high market penetration costs. Capstone sells booklights, multi-task lights, induction charged power failure lights and nightlights, motion sensor lights, desk lamps, eReader lights and also offers “Private Label” programs marketed to major retailers. “Private Label” is the manufacture of products that are branded and sold under a proprietary name or trade name owned by a specific retailer, manufacturer or distributor.
Current Products. Capstone is engaged in the business of producing the following consumer products, which are, unless indicated otherwise, manufactured for and under the trade name of “Capstone” by contract manufacturers in China, distributed by us and sold through regional and national retailers and distributors in the United States, including online e-commerce resellers:
(1) Portable book lights and Task lights. In March 2009 the Company launched an expanded new line of booklights and multi-task lights, under the name PATHWAY LIGHTS®. This program included the following named products: Mini Taskbright, Multi Taskbright, Poser Taskbright, Pawprint Taskbright, Compact 1 Brightbook, Compact 2 Brightbook, Britespot 2 Brightbook, Britespot 3 Brightbook, and Multipose Brightbook. In March 2010 at the International Housewares Show, the PATHWAY LIGHTS® program was further expanded with the launch of the Retro Taskbright and the Minipose Taskbright with additional trendy colors offered in our established line. These LED booklights are small,
lightweight and portable and attach to reading materials and illuminate the area of text. They are powered by batteries which are typically included in our product offerings. In March 2011, at the International Housewares Show, the PATHWAY LIGHTS® program was further expanded with additional trendy colors and new designs.
(2) In July 2010, we developed the eReader-Lite and the eBook-Lite products and presented to only a few retailers as it was late in the buying season. This new category has been specifically designed to provide lighting for the new trendy eReader products segment. The eGrip design allows it to adjust to all eReader designs. In March 2011, at the International Housewares Show, the Company officially launched the line and introduced additional trendy colors and a rechargeable eReader-Lite.
(3) In 2009, the Company also launched the Eco-i-Lite and Mini Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Lights. Both use induction charge technologies and function as a power failure light, hand held flashlight, and night light. Capstone pioneered this technology for these applications and gained attention of the North American markets. Each product uses an encased lithium ion battery that when fully charged provides 7 + hours of battery life and LED light bulbs that last 100,000 hours. In March 2010, at the International Housewares Show, the Company continued to expand the programs by adding the Midi Eco-i-Light and the Pawprint Line in Full size, Midi and Mini, specifically developed for the dog walking consumers, demonstrating
the Company’s ability to expand these programs through minimal design treatments. In March 2011, at the International Housewares Show, the Company introduced Mini Eco-i-Lite version marketed to senior citizens. The Company also introduced a new Eco-Headlite.
35
(4). In March 2010, at the International Housewares Show, the Company launched its new C-Lite Wireless Motion Sensor light. This is offered in a 12 LED full size and a 6 LED Mini Size and is powered by AA batteries. These lights provide lighting for dark areas without having to install electrical wiring. The bulb housing rotates 360 degrees to allow for light to be directed where needed. Both versions have a Motion Sensor Circuitry that activates the lights when movement is detected within 13 feet of the C-Lite. Both versions have a Hi and Lo light brightness setting to conserve the batteries. The full size also has a period selector (60 seconds, 90 seconds or 120 seconds) which presets the time period that a
light should turn off after the last motion has been detected. Both come with a unique slide and snap bracket that allows for the product to be installed on a wall. (5) In March 2010, the Company officially launched its new line of Light Ringers® Lamps. This offer includes the 12 LED Battery Operated Lamp, 12 LED Rechargeable Lamp, 12 LED Solar Lamp and 12 LED AC Lamp also the 20 LED Rechargeable Lamp, 20 LED AC Lamp, 20 LED Metal Lamp and 20 LED Utility Lamp. These products are all offered in trendy colors and unique packaging. This line became available for delivery in early 2011.
Distribution of Products: Capstone distributes its products through existing national and regional distributors and retailers in the United States, including, office-supply chains, book store chains, warehouse clubs, supermarket chains, drug chains, department stores, catalog houses, online retailers and book clubs. Our largest distribution channels are: Target Stores, Wal-Mart/Sams Club, Meijer Stores, Office Depot, Barnes & Noble book stores, Brookstone, Fred Meyer-Kroger Stores, Costco Wholesale, The Container Store, Starcrest, True Value and in Central and South America with our master
distributor Avtek. These distribution channels may sell our products through the Internet as well as through retail storefronts and catalogs/mail order. When we launch new products, our sales team will initially introduce the new line to our existing customer base. Many of our products are multifunctional and as such can be marketed to many other departments within an existing customer. Our goal is to expand our products into other departments where the product features fill a consumer’s need.
As a small reporting company with limited resources, we leverage the engineering and manufacturing capabilities of our Chinese contract manufacturers in order to provide quality products with more functions at what we deem to be a value price which has the broadest consumer appeal. This strategy has enabled us to gain access to the most recognized retailers in USA. We face many national and regional brand-named competitors in the lighting categories. We have proven to compete successfully in our lighting programs and share shelf space with nationally branded companies. We continue to rely on loans from members of management from time to time to finance product purchases for orders and working
capital.
Prior History: Prior to the acquisition of Capstone Industries and the involvement of the new management that joined the Company at that time; the history of CHDT has been a series of failed operating subsidiaries engaged in various business lines. We believe these past failures and CHDT’s inability to attain and sustain profitability was hindered by frequent changes in management and business lines, inadequate funding, and/or inadequate management expertise in the then current business lines.
Since 2007, with the acquisition of Capstone Industries, we have sought to avoid the problems of the past and recruited an experienced management and sales team for the stated purpose to develop and expand our consumer products business. Although these steps have resulted in losses in 2010, we believe that this investment in corporate infrastructure was necessary to lay the foundation for any hope of future success and effective business and product development. While we are not certain that our current strategy and business lines will produce sustained future profitability or any growth, we believe that the current strategy and business line is the best approach for our current management
team and available resources and, in our opinion, the most likely path to any hope of sustained future profitability or any growth. 2011 has proven to be our best performing year since 2007 and is profitable through the 3rd quarter. Our board of directors continues to review alternate business strategies, which may include sale of an existing business line, acquisition of new product lines, and merger and/or acquisition transactions with other companies. While no board decision has been made on any of these possible corporate transactions or actions, our board continues to periodically evaluate and consider such options.
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company’s revenues were derived from 4 sources: (i) the sale of our PATHWAY LIGHTS® booklight products (Capstone and its booklight product line was acquired by CHDT in September 2006); (ii) sale of Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Lights, (iii) sale of our Wireless motion sensor lights; and (iv) sale of our eReader-Lite program.
36
In fiscal year 2010 and through 2011 to date, we continued our historical reliance on raising working capital for operations, business and product development, by receiving loans or investments from members of management or their affiliates. We were able to obtain an increase in our factoring credit line to help support Capstone’s operations and working capital needs, however we may have to continue to raise working capital for CHDT and working capital for Capstone business and product development (as well as any possible mergers and acquisitions of other companies or their products) by selling our securities in private placements to investors and/or loans or investments by our management and
their affiliates. This reliance on private placements of securities and insider loans or investments adds to the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, dilutes our shareholders and further weakens our ability to attract primary market makers and institutional investor support for our Common Stock as a publicly traded security and also adversely impacts on our ability to do mergers and acquisitions, attract traditional bank funding or raise working capital by public offerings of our securities. The market price of our Common Stock, prior to this year, has consistently trended downward or remained just above or below one cent. Our lack of primary market makers and institutional investor support of our Common Stock also contributes to our burden in achieving sustained, profitable business lines. These problems stem from the manner in which CHDT was taken public and developed a
public market for the Common Stock in 1989. CHDT did not initiate an underwritten initial public offering and produce a national network of broker-dealers and institutional investors interested in long-term investment in CHDT and stability in the market price for the Common Stock. As a result, we have had difficulty in sustaining any increases in the market price of the Common Stock or maintaining stability in the market for our Common Stock. When the market price of the Common Stock enjoys any significant percentage increase, shareholders tend to sell the Common Stock to reap any gains from the market price increase and the selling causes the market price of the Common Stock to fall back. Since there are no primary market makers or institutional investors supporting the Common Stock, there are a few investors effectively countering the impact of the selling
pressure on the market price for the Common Stock. The low market price and lack of support for our Common Stock means that we are hampered in our ability to resort to the public markets to raise working capital because of the low stock market price. As such, we do not readily enjoy one of the principal benefits of being a public company: ready access to the public securities markets for working capital.
We have attempted to address and intend to continue to address the above problems in public and market maker support for our Common Stock by: (1) posting growth in consecutive fiscal quarters in our current consumer product business lines in order to further demonstrate that current management has a sound business line and business strategy. (2) upon establishing a record of profitability, members of management and agents will solicit support from institutional investors, asset managers, market makers and others to provide long-term investors in the Common Stock and stability in the public market for the Common Stock; (3) seek investment banker assistance in
developing a strategic plan, including an acquisition plan, to dramatically grow our core product line or another non retail product line that offers entry into a new distribution channel or niche market. (4) When cash flow permits, the board will contemplate a stock direct buyback program in an effort to demonstrate director’s and management’s confidence, while reducing the issued and outstanding share count. We can make no assurances that we shall succeed in this effort or that we will undertake or pursue any of the above actions, which are dependent on our financial performance.
We intend to remain focused on niche products for the time being that we believe can attain a profitable market niche with minimal market penetration costs and is attractive to our existing distribution channel of regional and national retailers and distributors. We also recognize that the traditional brick-and-mortar retail distribution has been negatively impacted by the ongoing economic recession and the growing use of online shopping. Subject to continued adequate funding, we intend to continue to develop new products by internal efforts as well as acquire new products by mergers and acquisitions or asset purchase, but we will also look for opportunities by merger and acquisition that would allow us to
diversify into non –retail distribution channels and business lines that may have faster and more robust growth potential than the current business line. The Company is considering a number of options to enhance shareholder value, including without limitation, divesting one or more existing business lines, and mergers and acquisitions.

Results of Operations – Comparing 2011 to 2010
Net Sales: For the three months ended September 30, 2011, increased by approximately $1,618,000 or 53.6% up to $4,631,900 compared to $3,013,900 in the same prior year period. This was a record third quarter revenue for the Company.
Net Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increased by approximately $4,179,671 or 105.3% up to $8,149,200 compared to $3,969,500 in the same prior year period. This also represents a record third quarter year to date revenue.
All of the revenue was generated by the Company’s subsidiary, Capstone Industries. The increase in net sales was due to increased demand for the Induction Charged Power Failure Lights, expanded distribution into existing retailers and expansion into new retail distribution.
Cost of Sales: For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 Cost of Sales, were approximately $3,579,000 and $2,126,400, respectively. The increase cost of approximately $1,452,600 is primarily due to the increase in sales volume.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, costs of sales were approximately $6,195,700 and $2,777,800 respectively. The increase of approximately $3,417,900 was primarily the result of increased sales volumes. Cost of Sales as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 was 76% and 70% respectively. As a percentage of total revenue, cost of sales, as compared to last year has increased by 6%. This is because the Company has allocated funds of approximately $95,000 to support fourth quarter sales of the Power Failure Light and Nightlight programs, and other additional allowances of $171,000 for a total of
$266,000 of allowances in the third quarter. These allowances had the effect of either reducing Gross Sales or increasing Cost of Sales with the net effect of increasing the Cost of Sales percentage to Net sales by approximately 4.3%.
Gross Profit: For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, was approximately $1,052,800 and $887,600 respectively, an increase of $165,200 or 19% from the same period in 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, gross profit was approximately $1,953,400 and $1,191,700 respectively, an increase of $761,700 or 64%. The large gross profit increase is attributed to significantly increased shipments in the first nine months of the year as compared to the same period last year. The lower gross profit percentage compared to the same period in 2010 was mainly the result of additional
allowances provided to retailers to promote product sell through.
Total Operating Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $431,200 and $655,700 respectively. This was a decrease of approximately $224,500 or 34% as compared to the same period in 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, operating expenses were approximately $1,162,000 and $1,703,800 respectively, a decrease of $541,800 or 31.8%. This expense decrease can be attributed to various factors, further explained below. During 2010 Management initiated an expense reduction program which has continued into 2011 and the Company has totally eliminated
certain expenses.
Sales and Marketing Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $44,400 and $192,400 respectively, a decrease of approximately $148,000 or 77%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 expenses were approximately $117,100 and $379,100 respectively, a decrease of $262,000 or 69% .This large expense decrease is mainly attributed to the elimination of $192,500 Royalty License payments to STP in 2011.
Compensation Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $208,900 and $247,600 respectively. This is a reduction of $38,700 or 15.6%. Compensation expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $585,600 and $755,000 respectively. A reduction of $169,400 or 22.4% for the nine months as compared to the same prior year period. This was achieved by a voluntary salary reduction by Executive Management and a reduction of stock based compensation.
38
Product Development Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $57,700 and $44,600 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30 2011 and September 30, 2010 expenses were $140,500 and $115,300 respectively. Expenses increased by $25,200 or 21.8% which was the result of the increased revenue volume and new product development.
General Admin Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $98,100 and $127,600 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 expenses were approximately $253,100 and $344,900 respectively. This was a reduction of $91,800 or 26.6% as compared to the prior year period.
Other Income (Expense): Interest Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 were approximately $87,800 and $101,700 respectively, a decrease of $13,900 or 13.6%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 interest expenses were approximately $242,300 and $183,800, an increase of $58,500 or 31.8%. Most of the expense increase was the result of additional funding for overseas Purchase Orders required to support the increased revenue. The purchase order interest expense for the nine months ending September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 included in the above numbers was $110,000 and $79,500
respectively an increase of $30,500 or 38.3%.
Net Income (Loss): The Net Income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 was approximately $533,800 and $130,200 respectively. This was an improvement of approximately $403,600 or 310% increase compared to the third quarter 2010. The Net Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $548,500 as compared to a Net Loss of $695,900 respectively. This was a net improvement of approximately $1,244,400 as compared to the nine months ending September 30, 2010. These financial results reflect a record third quarter both in Net Revenue and Net Income and
also a record year to date in Net Revenue and Net income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
LIQUIDITY
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, the availability under the expanded factoring agreement and the purchase order financing agreements as of September 30,2011 provide sufficient liquidity to support working capital requirements, planned capital expenditures and debt obligations.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 net cash used in operating activities was approximately $1,031,000. Most of the cash was used to fund the significant increase in Accounts Receivables in the period due to the higher sales volume.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $46,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This was the result of investing in new product tooling.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1,028,200. Funds have been advanced by Sterling Capital Funding as part of our factoring credit line, which was increased in the third quarter 2011 up to $4,000,000 availability and some of our Directors who have provided loans to fund the purchase of product overseas to support the fulfillment of customer’s orders. These sources of funds have been instrumental in allowing CHDT’s subsidiary, Capstone Industries to fund its revenue growth.
Directors & Officers Insurance: We currently operate with directors’ and officers’ insurance and we believe our coverage is adequate to cover likely liabilities under such a policy.
39
Impact of Inflation: Our major expenses have been the cost of selling and marketing product lines to customers in North America. That effort involves mostly sales staff traveling to make direct marketing and sales pitches to customers and potential customers trade shows around North America and visiting China to maintain and seek to expand distribution and manufacturing relationships and channels. As a result of world economic conditions and the current price of world oil and resulting increased material costs, there are now pressures from Chinese Manufacturers to increase costs. We generally have been able to reduce cost
increases by strong negotiating or re-engineering products, but may have to increase the price of our products in fiscal year 2011 in response to such inflationary pressures. Since we operate in industries where the consumer tends to be price sensitive, any such increase in the prices of our products may adversely impact our sales and financial results in fiscal year 2011.
Country Risks. Almost all of our contract manufacturing operations and sources of products are located in Peoples’ Republic of China or “China.” We are dependent on China for almost all of the design and production of our consumer products. As such, we are subject to significant risks not typically faced by companies operating in or obtaining products from North America and Western Europe manufacturing sources. Political, economic and trade conflicts between the United States and China, including possible conflict over
North Korea's nuclear weapons program or the independence of Taiwan, could severely hinder the ability of CHDT to obtain products and fill customer orders from our current Chinese manufacturing sources. Further, Chinese commercial law is still evolving to accommodate increasing capitalism in Chinese society, especially in terms of commercial relationships and dealings with foreign companies, and can be unpredictable in application or principal. The same unpredictability exists with respect to the central Chinese government, which can unilaterally and without prior warning impose new legal, economic and commercial laws, policies and procedures. This element of
unpredictability heightens the risk of doing business in China. While dramatic anti-trade shift in Chinese policy or laws would seem to be clearly against the best interests of China and its current economic trends, China has a central government with the authority to make such changes and an incentive to take actions designed to reaffirm the control of the central government over the economy and society.
China has been under ongoing international pressure to value its currency in a manner that would increase the value of Chinese currency in respect of other world currencies and thereby increase the cost of Chinese goods in the world market. Such a revaluation of Chinese currency could adversely impact business by increasing costs to consumers, but this cost impact would also affect our competitors with products produced in China. China adopted a 2% revaluation of its currency in 2005 and the U.S. Dollar declined slightly in response to this revaluation. While under international pressure to value the Chinese currency in a manner that more realistically reflects the strength and
value of the Chinese currency, China may continue to keep Chinese currency at a level that some regard as below its perceived, true value. The currency issue may produce a conflict between the U.S. and China that affects trade or commerce between those nations and may affect us as well.
Currency. The U.S. dollar is the currency used in all of our commercial transactions and our property and business is conducted in North America. As a result, the effect of the fluctuations of exchange rates is considered minimal to our business operations.
Interest Rate Risk. We do not have significant interest rate risk during the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2011.
Credit Risk. We have not experienced significant credit risk, as most of our customers are long-term customers with superior payment records. Our managers monitor our receivables regularly and our Direct Import Programs are shipped to only the most financially stable customers or advance payments before shipment are required for those accounts less financially secured.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
