SPECIAL
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain
statements made in this annual report on Form 10-K are “forward-looking
statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations.
Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of RTG VENTURES, INC.
(“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Registrant” or the “Company”) to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks
and uncertainties. Our plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions
involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the
foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future
economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all
of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are
beyond our control. Although we believe that our assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove
inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking
statements included in this annual report will prove to be accurate. In light of
the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements
included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a
representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be
achieved.
Item
1. Description of Business
General
We were
organized under the laws of the State of Florida on September 29, 1998 to engage
in the business of importing crawfish farmed and harvested in Indonesia for sale
in the United States. We conducted no material operations in that line of
business.
Effective
May 21, 2003, we entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock with
MJWC, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation formed on July 17, 2000.
Pursuant to such Agreement, MJWC, Inc. became our wholly-owned subsidiary and we
issued an aggregate of 22,750,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders
of MJWC, Inc. The transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition in which
MJWC, Inc. was treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. MJWC, Inc. holds
certain rights obtained from the Sports Ministry of The People's Republic of
China (the "PRC"), including the right to arrange, organize and promote the
Chinese Poker Championship and Mah-jong Championship in the PRC. We have not, to
date, conducted any operations based upon, or otherwise exploited, any of such
rights. The rights will expire on December 31, 2008.
4
In May
2003 we entered into an Asset Transfer Agreement with Brain Games Asia, Inc., a
British Virgin Islands corporation, pursuant to which we acquired certain
intangible assets of Brain Games Asia, Inc. in exchange for 3,725,000 shares of
our common stock. The assets acquired consisted primarily of rights obtained
from the Sports Ministry of the PRC to arrange, organize and promote the Chinese
Chess (Xianqui) Championship. These rights expired on December 31,
2005.
Effective
August 27, 2003, we changed our fiscal year end from May 31 to August
31.
On
November 18, 2004, we increased our number of authorized shares of common stock
from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000.
As of
July 2005, we discontinued pursuing the aforementioned lines of business and
chose instead to focus on identifying a privately-owned company with revenues, a
solid business plan and the need for a public entity to raise capital with which
to merge or effect a share exchange.
On August
12, 2005 we amended our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized
capital from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 200,000,000 shares of common
stock and 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
We are
currently a "shell" corporation with no operations and no significant
assets. On March 20, 2007, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
with Atlantic Network Holdings Limited, a Guernsey company limited by shares,
New Media Television (Europe) Limited, a United Kingdom private company limited
by shares and certain outside stockholders listed on Exhibit A thereto, pursuant
to which we have agreed to issue an aggregate of 1,273,059 shares of our
preferred stock to the stockholders of New Media Television (Europe) Limited in
exchange for all of the outstanding capital shares of New Media
Television(Europe) Limited. The closing of the transactions under the Share
Exchange Agreement is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions,
including our filing all reports required under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act") to the date of closing.
In addition, the Company has agreed that there will be no more than 42,435,315
shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to closing. No
assurance can be given that the transaction will be completed.
Sales
and Marketing
We
currently do not engage in any sales or marketing efforts as we currently have
no operations.
Research
and Development
Since our
inception, we have not engaged in any research and development
activities.
Employees
We
currently have one full-time employee.

Item
1A. Risk Factors In addition
to other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following important
factors should be carefully considered in evaluating the Company and its
business because such factors currently have a significant impact on the
Company's business, prospects, financial condition and results of
operations.
Risks
Associated with Our Business and the Share Exchange Agreement (“Agreement”) with
Atlantic Network Holdings Limited (“ANHL”)
There
is uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our
financial statements for the period ended August 31, 2008, which are included in
Item 8 of this annual report on Form 10-K, as well as the accompanying report of
our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements,
call into question our ability to operate as a going concern. This conclusion is
based on our net losses and cash used in operations. Those factors, as well as
uncertainty in securing financing for continued operations, create an
uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Although we
expect that we will be able to meet our expenses going forward based on loans
and/or equity investments from shareholders or other investors, our ability to
continue as a going concern will be dependent on our ability to obtain such
financing on acceptable terms, for which there is no existing commitment and for
which there can be no assurance.
Our business will have no revenues
unless and until we close the Agreement to acquire New Media Television
(Europe) Limited (“NMTV”).
Since
July 17, 2000 (inception), and as of August 31, 2008, we had incurred a net loss
of $5,611,446. Because we do not anticipate having any revenues until such time
as we consummate the Agreement, we are likely to incur a net operating loss that
will increase continuously until we are able to close the transaction. There can
be no assurance, however, that we will be able to close the Agreement or,
alternatively, to identify a suitable enterprise in this regard and consummate a
business combination, either eventually or at all.
Our
business is difficult to evaluate because we have no operating
history.
Because
we are a development-stage company with no operating history or revenue and only
minimal assets, meaningfully evaluating our prospects is uniquely challenging.
Until such time that we close the Agreement, prospective investors will not have
the benefit of being able to assess future operating performance on the basis of
historical operating performance.
It
should not be assumed that the Share Exchange Agreement will be
consummated.
Among
other conditions, consummation of the “Agreement” is subject to the preparation
and filing, and the causing to be declared effective by the SEC, covering the
issuance by us of the Preferred Shares to shareholders (“Exchanging
Shareholders”) mentioned in the Agreement,. Further, in accordance with its
terms, the Agreement may only be terminated by Exchanging Shareholders if we
breach any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on our part
contained in the Agreement. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions
to closing will be satisfied or that events will occur that will give rise to a
justified termination of the Merger Agreement on the part of NMTV prior to
closing. In the event that some or all of the conditions to closing are not
satisfied, or that events occur that give rise to a justified termination of the
Agreement on the part of the Company prior to closing, the Agreement may not be
consummated.
6
If
the Agreement is consummated, we will require substantial additional funding,
and our failure to raise additional capital necessary to support and expand our
operations could reduce our ability to compete and could harm our
business.
If the
agreement is consummated, one of the Conditions of Closing is working capital of
a minimum of $685,000 which will be utilized to cover the infrastructure costs
of a public company regulatory and investor awareness programs during the first
year following the Share Exchange with ANHL. Thereafter, we will likely need to
raise substantial additional capital in fiscal years 2009 and beyond through
equity and debt financing for continued technology research, development and
commercialization, for any specific projects that we determine to develop, to
support possible additional expansion of our existing operations, and for our
general and administrative expenses from operations. We may also need to raise
funds in order to respond to competitive pressures or acquire complementary
energy related products, services, businesses and/or technologies. We cannot
assure you that any such financing will be available to us in the future on
acceptable terms or at all. If the Agreement is consummated, and if we cannot
raise required funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to,
among
|
·
|
Pursue
new development projects
|
|
·
|
Maintain
our general and administrative expenses at required levels, including the
hiring and training of personnel;
|
|
·
|
Develop
and expand our operations and business infrastructure;
or
|
|
·
|
Respond
to competitive pressures or unanticipated capital
requirements.
|
However,
the funding for the intended venture has been private, and we would expect that
to be the first approach followed in the short and medium term going
forward.
If
the Agreement is consummated, our business model and strategies may have to
change from time to time in the pursuit of profitability.
If the
Agreement is consummated, we will still be a company in an early stage of
development. Despite the fact that our proposed business strategies in such
event will incorporate our senior management’s then-current best analysis of
potential markets, opportunities and difficulties that face us, no assurance can
be given that the underlying assumptions upon which they base their decisions
will accurately reflect current trends in our industry or our prospective
customers’ reaction to our products and services or that such products or
services will be embraced, or even accepted, by the market. Our business model
and strategies may and likely will change substantially from time to time as our
senior management reassesses its opportunities from time to time and reallocates
its resources, and any such model and/or strategies may be changed or abandoned
at any point in the process. If the Agreement is consummated and we are unable
to develop or implement any such model or strategies through our projects and
our technology, we may never achieve profitability. And even if we do achieve
profitability, we can predict neither its sustainability nor its
level.
Our
stockholders will have a minority voting interest in the Company following the
closing of the Agreement.
Upon
closing the Agreement our stockholders would own than 25% of the voting shares
of the Company. The stockholders of the acquired company would therefore be able
to control the election of our board of directors and effectively control our
Company.

relevant factors. Although there are no material restrictions limiting, or that
are likely to limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, we
presently intend to retain future earnings, if any, for use in our business and
have no present intention to pay cash dividends on our common
stock.
Equity
Compensation Plan Information
We did
not issue any securities pursuant to equity compensation plans during the year
ended August 31, 2008.
Recent
Sales of Unregistered Securities
In
November 2008, we issued an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock to our
directors and executive officers upon the exercise of options previously granted
to such individuals (September 2007 and September 2008). The Company received a
total of $127,500 as consideration for such exercise. We relied upon the
exemption form registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), for such issuance.
In
January 2007, we issued an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock to
three unaffiliated investors upon the conversion of an aggregate of $100,000
principal amount of 0.00% Convertible Debentures due March 24, 2005. The
debentures were issued to Silverlake Holdings, Inc. on September, 24, 2004 and
December 24, 2004, respectively, pursuant to an exemption from registration
provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and were subsequently sold to the
investors.

6. Selected Financial Data
As a
“smaller reporting company”, as defined by Rule 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the
Company is not required to provide this information.
Item
7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of
Operation
The
following Plan of Operation should be read in conjunction with our consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Report.
We are a
development stage company. We have not generated any revenues. There is
presently no business being conducted by the Company. During the first half of
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007, we continued to look for merger and
acquisition candidates in related and unrelated fields.
On March
20, 2007, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement")
with Atlantic Network Holdings Limited, New Media Television (Europe) Limited
("NMTV"), and Certain Outside Stockholders Listed on Exhibit A thereto to
acquire all of the outstanding shares of NMTV. Atlantic Network Holdings Limited
is a Guernsey company limited by shares and NMTV is a United Kingdom private
company limited by shares. The transaction is subject to the fulfillment of
certain conditions, including the filing by the Company of all reports required
to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and the satisfactory completion of the
audit of NMTV's financial statements for each of its past three fiscal years. In
addition, the Company has agreed that there will be no more than 42,435,315
shares of its common stock outstanding at closing. No assurance can be given
that the transaction will be completed.
We have
financed our activities to date from sales of debentures and loans from
shareholders, officers and third parties. As at August 31, 2008 we had an
accumulated deficit of $5,611,446. The report of our independent registered
public accounting firm, Sherb & Co., LLP, on our audited financial
statements contains a qualification regarding our ability to continue as a going
concern.
10
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We are
not currently a party to, or otherwise involved with, any off-balance sheet
arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition,
revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or
capital resources.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No.
115”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve
financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate
volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value
measurement, which is consistent with the FASB’s long-term measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This Statement applies to
all entities, including not-for-profit organizations. Most of the provisions of
this Statement apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. The fair
value option:
·
|
May
be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such as
investments otherwise accounted for by the equity
method
|
|
·
|
Is
irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs)
|
|
·
|
Is
applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of
instruments.
|
This
Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning
of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity
also elects to apply the provisions of FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. No
entity is permitted to apply this Statement retrospectively to fiscal years
preceding the effective date unless the entity chooses early adoption. The
choice to adopt early should be made after issuance of this Statement but within
120 days of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption, provided the entity
has not yet issued financial statements, including required notes to those
financial statements, for any interim period of the fiscal year of adoption.
This Statement permits application to eligible items existing at the effective
date (or early adoption date). However, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115,
“Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. Some requirements apply differently
to entities that do not report net income. The following are eligible items for
the measurement option established by this Statement:
1.
|
Recognized
financial assets and financial liabilities
except:
|
a)
|
An
investment in a subsidiary that the entity is required to
consolidate;
|
|
b)
|
An
interest in a variable interest entity that the entity is required to
consolidate;
|
11
c)
|
Employers’
and plans’ obligations (or assets representing net overfunded positions)
for pension benefits, other postretirement benefits (including health care
and life insurance benefits), postemployment benefits, employee stock
option and stock purchase plans, and other forms of deferred compensation
arrangements, as defined in FASB Statements No. 35, “Accounting and Reporting by
Defined Benefit Pension Plans”, No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for
Pensions”, No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions”, No. 112, “Employers’ Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits”, No. 123 (revised December 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, No. 43,
“Accounting for Compensated Absences”, No. 146, “Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”, and No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans”, and APB
Opinion No. 12, “Omnibus
Opinion—1967”;
|
|
d)
|
Financial
assets and financial liabilities recognized under leases as defined in
FASB Statement No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”
(This exception does not apply to a guarantee of a third-party lease
obligation or a contingent obligation arising from a cancelled
lease.);
|
e)
|
Deposit
liabilities, withdrawable on demand, of banks, savings and loan
associations, credit unions, and other similar depository
institutions;
|
|
f)
|
Financial
instruments that are, in whole or in part, classified by the issuer as a
component of shareholder’s equity (including “temporary equity”). An
example is a convertible debt security with a noncontingent beneficial
conversion feature.
|
2.
|
Firm
commitments that would otherwise not be recognized at inception and that
involve only financial
instruments;
|
3.
|
Nonfinancial
insurance contracts and warranties that the insurer can settle by paying a
third party to provide those goods or services;
and
|
4.
|
Host
financial instruments resulting from separation of an embedded
nonfinancial derivative instrument from a nonfinancial hybrid
instrument.
|
The fair
value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to
measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business
entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair
value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if
the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date.
A not-for-profit organization shall report unrealized gains and losses in its
statement of activities or similar statement.
In March
2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)
No. 161, Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133, which requires additional disclosures about the
objectives of the derivative instruments and hedging activities, the method of
accounting for such instruments under SFAS No. 133 and its related
interpretations, and a tabular disclosure of the effects of such instruments and
related hedged items on our financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for the Company beginning November 30,
2008. Management believes that, for the foreseeable future, this Statement will
have no impact on the financial statements of the Company once
adopted.

Accounting Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States 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 periods. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not
limited to, the amount of unbilled vendors payable for services performed during
the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates and
assumptions.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Income
taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities to reflect the future tax consequences of events that have been
recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Measurement of
the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future
consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of
the Company’s assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS No.
109 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the
future benefits indicated by such assets. A valuation allowance related to a
deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or the
entire deferred tax asset will not be realized.
For
federal income tax purposes, substantially all expenses must be deferred until
the Company commences business and then they may be written off over a 60-month
period. These expenses will not be deducted for tax purposes and will represent
a deferred tax asset. The Company will provide a valuation allowance in the full
amount of the deferred tax asset since there is no assurance of future taxable
income. Tax deductible losses can be carried forward under current applicable
law for 20 years until utilized.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the
Stockholders and Board of Directors
RTG
Ventures, Inc
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of RTG Ventures, Inc (a
development stage company), as of August 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for
the years ended August 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period July 17, 2000
(inception) to August 31, 2008. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting as
a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of RTG Ventures, Inc. (a
development stage company) as of August 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2008 and
2007, and the period from July 17, 2000 (inception) to August 31, 2008, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that
RTG Ventures, Inc. (a development stage company), will continue as
going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements,
the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit for the period from July 17,
2000 (inception) through August 31, 2008 of approximately $5,611,000. The
Company incurred a net loss for the year ended August 31, 2008 of approximately
$390,000 and has negative working capital at August 31, 2008 of approximately
$798,000. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters
are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS
RTG
Ventures, Inc. ("RTG" or the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Florida
in September 1998 and was inactive until May 2003 when it acquired 100% of the
outstanding common stock of MJWC, Inc. ("MJWC"), a British Virgin Island
corporation, which is in the development stage.
MJWC was
formed on July 17, 2000 and holds the contractual rights to promote and organize
the Chinese Poker Championship, the Mah Jong Championship, and Chinese Chess
Championship. On May 21, 2003 MJWC was acquired by RTG for 22,750,000 shares of
RTG stock (the "Exchange"). The Exchange was completed pursuant to the Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization between MJWC and RTG. The Exchange has been accounted
for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method for business
combinations. Accordingly, the combination of the two companies was recorded as
a recapitalization of MJWC, pursuant to which MJWC is treated as the continuing
entity.
Effective
August 27, 2003 the Company changed their fiscal year end from May 31 to August
31.
On May
22, 2003, the Company increased the number of authorized shares of common stock
from 20,000,000 to 50,000,000.
On
November 18, 2004, the Company increased the number of authorized shares of
common stock from 50,000,000 to 100,000,000.
On August
12, 2005, the Company increased the number of authorized shares of no par value
common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000 and authorized capital of 2,000,000
no par value preferred shares. The Company amended both common and preferred
stocks to reflect a par value of $.001 per share.
NOTE
2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly owned subsidiary MJWC, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions
are eliminated.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standers No.109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS109"). SFAS 109 requires
the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected
impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets
and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax
losses and tax credit carryforwards. SFAS 109 additionally requires the
establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization
of deferred tax asset.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Computation
of Net Loss Per Share
The
Company presents basic loss per share and, if appropriate, diluted earnings per
share in accordance with SFAS 128, "Earnings Per Share ("SFAS 128"). Under SFAS
128 basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the
period by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period
by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents during the period.
Common stock equivalents arise from the issuance of stock options and warrants.
Dilutive earnings per share is not shown as the effect is anti-dilutive. There
were no common stock equivalents at August 31, 2008 for fiscal year ended August
31, 2007, 2,500,000 stock options were outstanding.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company's financial instruments consist of accounts payable, accrued expenses
and loans payable. The Company considers the carrying amounts of these financial
instruments to approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these
liabilities.
Stock
Based Compensation
We
account for the grant of stock options and restricted stock awards in accordance
with SFAS 123R, “Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123”
(“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R requires companies to recognize in the statement of
operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based
compensation.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No.
115”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve
financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate
volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value
measurement, which is consistent with the FASB’s long-term measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This Statement applies to
all entities, including not-for-profit organizations. Most of the provisions of
this Statement apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. The fair
value option:
·
|
May
be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such as
investments otherwise accounted for by the equity
method
|
|
·
|
Is
irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs)
|
|
·
|
Is
applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of
instruments.
|
This
Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning
of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity
also elects to apply the provisions of FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. No
entity is permitted to apply this Statement retrospectively to fiscal years
preceding the effective date unless the entity chooses early adoption. The
choice to adopt early should be made after issuance of this Statement but within
120 days of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption, provided the entity
has not yet issued financial statements, including required notes to those
financial statements, for any interim period of the fiscal year of adoption.
This Statement permits application to eligible items existing at the effective
date (or early adoption date). However, the amendment to FASB Statement No. 115,
“Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. Some requirements apply differently
to entities that do not report net income. The following are eligible items for
the measurement option established by this Statement:

In March
2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)
No. 161, Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133, which requires additional disclosures about the
objectives of the derivative instruments and hedging activities, the method of
accounting for such instruments under SFAS No. 133 and its related
interpretations, and a tabular disclosure of the effects of such instruments and
related hedged items on our financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for the Company beginning November 30,
2008. Management believes that, for the foreseeable future, this Statement will
have no impact on the financial statements of the Company once
adopted.

3 - GOING CONCERN
The
Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a
going concern, which contemplates the realizations of assets and liquidation of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred an
accumulated deficit for the period from July 17, 2000 (inception) through August
31, 2008 of $5,611,446 and had negative working capital at August 31, 2008 of
$798,377. The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended August 31, 2008 of
$390,073. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern. In order to continue as a going concern, the
Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources.
Management's plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1)
obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to
meet its minimal operating expenses, and (2) seeking out and completing a merger
with an existing operating company.
NOTE
4 - NOTES PAYABLE
In July
2008, the Company issued a note for $25,000. The note was payable on September
30, 2008 and is currently in default. Accrued interest totaled $12,500 on
September 30, 2008 and will continue to accrue interest and penalties of $100
per day until the note is satisfied.
In
September 2004 the Company issued an interest free $60,000 convertible debenture
which was convertible into 6,000,000 common shares at $.01 per share. In
December 2004 the Company issued a similar $40,000 debenture, convertible into
4,000,000 common shares. A value of 100,000 was attributed to the beneficial
conversion of the notes and was amortized as interest expense during the year
ended August 31, 2005. On January 30, 2007, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares
to the debenture holder, having a market value of $.075 per share, in full
settlement of the outstanding debentures payable. The excess market value of the
shares over the note payable ($650,000) was charged to interest expense and
credited to paid-in-capital.

At August
31, 2007 certain merger participants advanced $129,940 to the Company in
anticipation of the completion of the pending transaction. The capital infusion
was intended to facilitate the merger and was stated as non-refundable in the
Amendment to the Share Exchange Agreement filed on December 21, 2007. This has
been accounted for as an adjustment to additional paid in capital by the
Company. No shares of the Company's common stock were exchanged as consideration
for this transaction.

On
January 30, 2007 a total of 2,500,000 common shares were issued to the
aforementioned officers upon exercise of their options for a total consideration
of $2,500.The Company concurrently issued 10,000,000 common shares to the
debenture holder as full payment of the outstanding payable. See note

In
November 2008, Linda Perry an officer of the Company, exercised 3,000,000 stock
options at an average exercise price of $.0255 per share or $76,500 in the
aggregate and Lancer Corporation a related party exercised 2,000,000 stock
options at an average exercise price of $.0255 or $51,000 in the aggregate.
These amounts were offset against officer compensation. During the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2008 there were no other exercises of stock options by the
named executives. The named executives have never received stock appreciation
rights.
NOTE
8 - STOCK OPTIONS
On
September 1, 2007, the Company granted 2,500,000 stock options with a fair value
of $33,500 as reported in the financial statements at November 30, 2007. The
Black - Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of
the options granted in September 1, 2007. The model includes subjective input
assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The model was
developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no
vesting restrictions and that are fully transferable. For example, the expected
volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period equal to the
weighted average life of the options granted. Options issued under the Company's
option plans have characteristics that differ from traded options. This
valuation model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the
fair value of its employee stock options.

NOTE
9 - INCOME TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No.109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS109"). This standard
requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the
expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of
assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived
from tax losses and tax credit carry-forwards. SFAS 109 additionally requires
the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of
realization of deferred tax assets.

A significant portion of these carry-forwards is subject to annual limitations

9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of
August 31, 2008, our management, consisting of our Chief Executive Officer and
our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the
Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that, as of August 31, 2008, our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to
be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring
that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief
Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During
the period covered by this report, there have not been any significant changes
in our internal controls or, to our knowledge, in other factors that could
significantly affect our internal controls.
Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule
13a-15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable
assurance to our management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation
and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control
systems, no matter how well designed have inherent limitations. Therefore, even
those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance
with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Our management
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as
of August 31, 2008. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria
set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework - Guidance
for Smaller Public Companies (the COSO criteria). Based on our assessment we
believe that, as of August 31, 2008, our internal control over financial
reporting is effective based on those criteria.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our
management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public
accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual
report.

Board
Committees
We
currently do not have any standing committees on our Board of Directors; our
full Board of Directors currently acts in such capacities.
Audit
Committee
We intend
to establish an Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which will consist of
independent directors. The Audit Committee's duties would be to recommend to our
Board of Directors the engagement of independent auditors to audit our financial
statements and to review our accounting and auditing principles. The audit
committee would review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the
results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent
public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of
accounting and internal controls. The Audit Committee would at all times be
composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of our Board of
Directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of
independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an
understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting
principles.
Compensation
Committee
We intend
to establish a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The
compensation committee would review and approve our salary and benefits
policies, including compensation of executive officers. The Compensation
Committee would also administer our stock option plans and recommend and approve
grants of stock options under such plans.
Compensation
of Directors
None of
our directors received any remuneration for acting as such. Directors are,
however, reimbursed for their expenses, if any, for attendance at meetings of
the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may designate from among its
members an Executive Committee and one or more other committees. No such
committees have been appointed to date.
17
Compliance
with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act
Our
common stock was not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act

directors and principal shareholders were not subject to the beneficial
ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during
such year.

December 1, 2004 we adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our Principal
Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer and
Controller and to persons performing similar functions. A copy of our Code of
Ethics was previously filed as an Exhibit to our annual report on Form 10-KSB

13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Effective
April 24, 2006, we entered into a Consulting Agreement with Lancer for the
services of Barrington J. Fludgate as our Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and
Director. The agreement is for an initial three year term and thereafter is
terminable by either party upon 12 months' prior written notice. As
consideration for these services, the Company has agreed to pay Lancer an annual
consulting fee of $120,000. In addition, Lancer was granted options to purchase
1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.001
per share on April 24, 2006. Lancer will receive an additional 1,000,000 5-year
options each September 1 that the agreement is in effect, beginning September 1,
2007. Such options will have exercise prices equal to the market
price of our common stock on the date of grant. Mr. Fludgate is the sole
shareholder of Lancer.

fees represent fees for professional services provided in connection with the
audit of our annual financial statements and review of our quarterly financial
statements and audit services provided in connection with other statutory or
regulatory filings.
Audit
Committee's Pre-Approval Practice.
Insomuch
as we do not have an audit committee, our board of directors performs the
functions of an audit committee. Section 10A(i) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 prohibits our auditors from performing audit services for us as well as
any services not considered to be "audit services" unless such
services are pre-approved by the board of directors (in lieu of
the audit committee) or unless the services meet certain de minimis
standards.
