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 did not,
conduct any operations based upon, or otherwise exploit, any of such rights. The
rights expired 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. The Company, as described below, was
identified in 2006.
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.
The
Company is in a start up mode with a Business Plan in place. In 2006, the
Company identified a business in digital and broadband internet media and online
global payment systems in the UK which lent itself to both organic growth and
growth by acquisition. From that time, we have been evolving the Business Plan
to maximize the opportunities and minimize the risks inherent in a challenging
economic environment. All of these efforts were conducted under the contractual
requirements of a Share Exchange Agreement. 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. NMTV
will hold a 75% aggregate ownership share of the resultant company in preferred
shares and RTGV will retain 25% of NMTV and all of the outstanding common shares
for one year. 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. No
assurance can be given that the transaction will be completed, however, the
Company intends to continue the implementation of the Business Plan without the
share exchange.
In
August, 2009, RTGV signed a Letter of Intent with International Financial
Systems Ltd. (IFS) a private company, to include iPayu, another dimension in the
payment systems division of our Business Plan as described on our website.
www.rtgventures.com. The LOI provides an exclusive option to purchase the
intellectual property rights for iPayu and the right to operate its
business.

inception, we have not engaged in any research and development

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”), New Media Television (Europe)
Limited (“NMTV”) et al.
There
is uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our
financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, 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 NMTV.
Since
July 17, 2000 (inception), and as of August 31, 2009, we had incurred a net loss
of $6,126,356. 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.
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 2010 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, certain division of the Company will remain in a
start-up mode. 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
conditions of closing being met.
Upon
closing the Agreement our stockholders would own than 25% of the voting shares
of the Company. The aggregate stockholders of the acquired company would
therefore be able to control the election of our board of directors and
effectively control our Company. Since NMTV Inc. will consist of several
companies each with shareholder voting rights. No one group will have
control.

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 April,
2009 1,200,000 shares of common stock were provided to a consultant in advance
of the provision of consideration, as a show of good faith, under a contract for
those anticipated services. In June, 2009, the contract was extended and an
additional 1,200,000 shares of common stock provided under the same provisions.
The Company has sent a Demand Letter to the consultant for the return of all
shares issued because of non-performance on the part of said consultant. The
contract is governed by Arbitration, and if the shares are not returned
voluntarily, the Company will file for an arbitration action. As of November,
2009, the shares remain restricted.
In
September 2009, we issued an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock to
our directors and executive officers upon the exercise of options granted to
such individuals (September 2009). The Company received a total of $125,000 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.

protracted close of the Share Exchange and to ensure continuation of
services.
In
October, 2009, 2,000,000 shares of common stock to a non-affiliate for services
rendered to provide the design, development, execution and maintenance of the

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.
The
Company is in a start up mode with a Business Plan in place. In 2006, the
Company identified a business in digital and broadband internet media and online
global payment systems in the UK which lent itself to both organic growth and
growth by acquisition. From that time, we have been evolving the Business Plan
to maximize the opportunities and minimize the risks inherent in a challenging
economic environment. All of these efforts were conducted under the contractual
requirements of a Share Exchange Agreement. 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. NMTV
will hold a 75% aggregate ownership share of the resultant company in preferred
shares and RTGV will retain 25% of NMTV and all of the outstanding common shares
for one year. 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. No
assurance can be given that the transaction will be completed, however, the
Company intends to continue the implementation of the Business Plan without the
share exchange.
In
August, 2009, RTGV signed a Letter of Intent with International Financial
Systems Ltd. (IFS) a private company, to include iPayu, another dimension in the
payment systems division of our Business Plan as described on our website.
www.rtgventures.com. The LOI provides an exclusive option to purchase the
intellectual property rights for iPayu and the right to operate its
business.
We have
financed our activities to date from sales of debentures and loans from
shareholders, officers and third parties. As at August 31, 2009 we had an
accumulated deficit of $6,144,356. 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.
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.

Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On
January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 260-10-45-61A, Determining Whether Instruments
Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities
(“ASC 260-10-45-61A”). This standard clarified that all outstanding
unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable
dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Awards
of this nature are considered participating securities and the two-class method
of computing basic and diluted earnings per share must be applied. The adoption
of ASC 260-10-45-61A did not have any impact on the Company’s financial
condition or results of operations.
On
January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the updated provisions of ASC 810,
which established requirements for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by
parties other than the Company, noncontrolling interest (previously referred to
as “minority interest”) to be clearly identified, presented, and disclosed in
the consolidated statement of financial position within equity but separate from
the parent’s equity. All changes in the parent’s ownership interests are
required to be accounted for consistently as equity transactions, and any
noncontrolling equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries must be
measured initially at fair value. The adoption of the updated provisions of ASC
810 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows.
In April
2009, the FASB issued guidance in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
Topic of the Codification on determining fair value when the volume and level of
activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying
transactions that are not orderly. The guidance emphasizes that even
if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity,
the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or
distressed sale) between market participants. The guidance provides a
number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a
significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or
liability in relation to normal market activity. In addition, when
transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those
prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine
the appropriate fair value. The guidance is effective for interim or
annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied
prospectively. There is no impact of the adoption on our financial
statements.
In April
2009, FASB issued guidance in the Financial Instruments Topic of the
Codification on interim disclosures about fair value of financial
instruments. The guidance requires disclosures about the fair value
of financial instruments for both interim reporting periods, as well as annual
reporting periods. The guidance is effective for all interim and
annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 and shall be applied
prospectively. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our
financial statements as of August 31, 2009, other than the additional
disclosure.
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS 165, “Subsequent Events,” which was
later superseded by the FASB Codification and included in topic 855. This update
to the Codification established general standards of accounting for disclosure
of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this
Statement sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which
management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential
recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under
which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the
balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that an
entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance
sheet date. This update to the Codification did not have a significant impact on
the Company’s financial statements.
In July
2009, the FASB issued ASC topic 105 (formerly Statement of Financial Standard
(SFAS) 168, “The FASB
Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles”). ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles
recognized by the FASB to be applied by entities in the preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP. This pronouncement is effective for
financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after
September 15, 2009.
12
Significant
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
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, 2009 and 2008 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for
the years ended August 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period July 17, 2000
(inception) to August 31, 2009. 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, 2009 and 2008, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2009 and
2008, and the period from July 17, 2000 (inception) to August 31, 2009, 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, 2009 of approximately $6,126,000. The
Company incurred a net loss for the year ended August 31, 2009 of approximately
$514,000 and has negative working capital at August 31, 2009 of approximately
$1,069,000. 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 utilizing the liability method of accounting.
Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on
differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities
at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to
reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce
deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.

Computation
of Net Loss Per Share
The
Company utilizes the guidance per FASB Codification “ASC 260 "Earnings Per
Share". Basic earnings per share is calculated on the weighted effect of all
common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average 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, 2009 for
fiscal year ended August 31, 2009 and 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
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB
ASC 718-10-55 - Compensation-Stock Compensation. Under ASC 718-10-55, companies
are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation
arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the
financial statements over the period during which employees are required to
provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options,
restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and
employee share purchase plans. In March 2005 the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or the SEC, issued FASB ASC 825-10-50-10 - Financial Instruments -
Overall - Disclosures. ASC 825-10-50-10 expresses views of the staff regarding
the interaction between ASC 718-10-55 and certain SEC rules and regulations and
provides the staff's views regarding the valuation of share-based payment
arrangements for public companies. ASC 718-10-55 permits public companies to
adopt its requirements using one of two methods. Companies may elect to apply
this statement either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective
application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a
basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under
ASC 718-10-55. Effective with its fiscal 2006, the Company has adopted the
provisions of ASC 718-10-55 and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107
prospectively.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On
January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 260-10-45-61A, Determining Whether Instruments
Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities
(“ASC 260-10-45-61A”). This standard clarified that all outstanding
unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable
dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Awards
of this nature are considered participating securities and the two-class method
of computing basic and diluted earnings per share must be applied. The adoption
of ASC 260-10-45-61A did not have any impact on the Company’s financial
condition or results of operations.
On
January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the updated provisions of ASC 810,
which established requirements for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by
parties other than the Company, noncontrolling interest (previously referred to
as “minority interest”) to be clearly identified, presented, and disclosed in
the consolidated statement of financial position within equity but separate from
the parent’s equity. All changes in the parent’s ownership interests are
required to be accounted for consistently as equity transactions, and any
noncontrolling equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries must be
measured initially at fair value. The adoption of the updated provisions of ASC
810 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In April
2009, the FASB issued guidance in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
Topic of the Codification on determining fair value when the volume and level of
activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying
transactions that are not orderly. The guidance emphasizes that even
if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity,
the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or
distressed sale) between market participants. The guidance provides a
number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a
significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or
liability in relation to normal market activity. In addition, when
transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those
prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine
the appropriate fair value. The guidance is effective for interim or
annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied
prospectively. There is no impact of the adoption on our financial
statements.
In April
2009, FASB issued guidance in the Financial Instruments Topic of the
Codification on interim disclosures about fair value of financial
instruments. The guidance requires disclosures about the fair value
of financial instruments for both interim reporting periods, as well as annual
reporting periods. The guidance is effective for all interim and
annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 and shall be applied
prospectively. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our
financial statements as of August 31, 2009, other than the additional
disclosure.
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS 165, “Subsequent Events,” which was
later superseded by the FASB Codification and included in topic 855. This update
to the Codification established general standards of accounting for disclosure
of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this
Statement sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which
management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential
recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under
which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the
balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that an
entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance
sheet date. This update to the Codification did not have a significant impact on
the Company’s financial statements.
In July
2009, the FASB issued ASC topic 105 (formerly Statement of Financial Standard
(SFAS) 168, “The FASB
Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles”). ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles
recognized by the FASB to be applied by entities in the preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP. This pronouncement is effective for
financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after
September 15, 2009.

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, 2009 of $6,126,356 and had negative working capital at August 31, 2008 of
$1,068,587. The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended August 31, 2009
of $514,910. 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) completing a merger with an
existing operating company.
NOTE

In July

6 - LOANS PAYABLE
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.
During
the fiscal year ended August 31 2009, certain shareholders advanced $135,000 to
the Company in anticipation of the completion of the pending transaction. The
capital infusion was intended to facilitate the merger. The advances bear no
interest.

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 unpaid officer compensation. During the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2009 there were no other exercises of stock options by the
named executives.
NOTE
8 - STOCK OPTIONS
On
September 1, 2008 the Company granted 2,500,000 stock options with a fair value
of $50,000. The Black - Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the
fair value of the options granted. 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. Principal assumptions used in applying
the Black-Scholes model for options granted along with the result from the model
were as follows:

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.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of
August 31, 2009, 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, 2009, 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, 2009. 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, 2009, 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

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.

Compliance
with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act
Our
common stock was not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act
during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009. Accordingly, our officers,
directors and principal shareholders were not subject to the beneficial
ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during
such year.
Code
of Ethics
On
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
