ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

Gelstat was incorporated on November 13, 1991 in the State of Minnesota under the name Developed Technology Resource, Inc. and reincorporated in Delaware on October 27, 2010. The Company's principal executive office is located at 3557 SW Corporate Parkway Palm City, FL (772) 283-0020 and its website is www.Gelstat.com. The information found at the Company's website is not incorporated in or made a part of this report on Form 10-K.

Effective April 30, 2003, the Company acquired Gelstat Corp. ("GC") as a wholly-owned subsidiary. GC was organized in June 2002 for the purpose of developing, manufacturing and marketing over-the-counter ("OTC") and other non-prescription consumer health products related to migraine and sleep. The acquisition was accomplished by merger of GC (a Minnesota corporation) with our wholly-owned subsidiary, NP Acquisition (a Minnesota corporation). In the merger, the former owners of GC received shares of our common stock and GC became our wholly-owned subsidiary. No cash consideration was exchanged. The amount of the merger consideration was negotiated at arm’s length based on the then recent trading price of our common stock and our assessment of the business prospects of GC. In July 2003, the Company changed its name to Gelstat Corporation. On March 17, 2004, GS Corp. was merged into its parent company, Gelstat Corporation. References in this Report to the "Company" or "Gelstat" mean Gelstat Corporation.

In 2004, the Company established a subsidiary called GS Pharma, Inc. On January 5, 2005, GS Pharma assigned all rights in the license previously granted to it by Gelstat to DTLL, Inc. (OTCBB: DTLI) in exchange for 12.5 million shares of DTLL. On November 14, 2005 the Company sold 12.4 million of its shares in DTLL for $500,000. As a result of the transaction, the Company will no longer be consolidating DTLL results in the Company’s future financial statements. Because DTLL failed to pay its required payments to have rights to the pharmaceutical applications, the rights reverted back to Gelstat.

In late 2005, the Company became insolvent and only marketed its products on a limited basis.

In 2006 and through 2007 the Company struggled under the burden of significant debt and accounts payable, declining revenues, negative cash flows from operations and lack of capital.

In April 2008, WSR Consulting, Inc. (WSR) was engaged in an attempt to turn around the Company. In June 2008 a founder of WSR assumed the position as interim CEO of the Company. The Company was quickly downsized and refocused to minimize the Company’s monthly expenses while management attempted to clean up the balance sheet and secure capital.

In July 2008, the Company’s patent #7,192,614 was forced to auction by a creditor and subsequently, purchased by and assigned to that creditor. This was a key asset of the Company and seriously impaired its ability to continue as a going concern. Throughout 2008 the Company’s CEO and one of its board members used personal funds to rigorously negotiate with this creditor to retain rights to the patent.

In November 2009, the Company’s CEO, Mr. Gerald N. Kieft, one of its board members and a few investors were able repurchase the patent from the creditor through an entity named High Alpha Partners, Inc. d/b/a Gelstat Direct. In December 2009, the entire inventory held in Vero Beach, Florida was seized by the owner of the facility due to the Company’s back rent payments. In July 2010, the Company’s CEO, Mr. Gerald N. Kieft, and a few investors were able to repurchase the inventory from the landlord through Gelstat Direct.

In September 2010, Gelstat Direct formally contributed assets it owned relating to Gelstat into a majority-owned subsidiary of High Alpha Partners, Inc. named GSC Direct, Inc. In September 2011, 100% of the outstanding shares of GSC Direct, Inc. were acquired by Gelstat in exchange for the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of Gelstat common stock. See Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.”

In September 2011, GSC Direct, Inc. and its assets were merged into Gelstat in a share exchange.

Gelstat is a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of OTC and other non-prescription consumer health care products. When development efforts ceased in 2005 due to lack of capital, its efforts had been focused on proprietary, innovative products that addressed multi-billion dollar global markets.

The Company's first product is Gelstat® Migraine is a patented homeopathic drug designed to provide acute relief from migraine and migraine-like headaches. Gelstat Migraine was originally launched through distributors into retailers and wholesalers across the United States. In 2008, the Company changed its business model to focus on Direct-to-Consumer sales and marketing efforts. As such, the Company’s products are now sold primarily through its website www.gelstat.com and through a very limited number of retailers.

Gelstat(TM) Sleep is presently under final development and is intended to be marketed as a sleep aid. It was introduced to consumers in 2010 on a test basis to obtain data to determine product viability. Gelstat Sleep is expected to be classified as a dietary supplement. The Company plans to formally launch the product in the fourth quarter of 2012 2012contingent on raising any required capital.

While Gelstat expects to continue developing new products and will be opportunistic in regard to unanticipated opportunities within the OTC health care product field, the two products listed above are expected to account for essentially all of the Company's activity over the next 12 months.

Overview of Regulations Regarding the Manufacture and Sale of Homeopathic Drugs and Nutritional Supplements.

This overview is a brief summary and does not purport to be complete.

In general, the Company's products are regulated both by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") and by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") as well as States through their “little FTC” laws and rules as well as other consumer protection laws. Internationally, the Company must comply with the federal and local laws of each country.

The FDA treats homeopathic drugs, both prescription and OTC, differently than non-homeopathic drugs. Unlike non-homeopathic drugs, homeopathic drugs are not required to submit to pre-market approval and are not required to be tested for safety and effectiveness. Homeopathic drugs must meet the standards set forth by the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States.

In general, the FTC and the FDA prohibit fraud in the marketing of homeopathic drugs, monitor OTC versus prescription use of homeopathic drugs, hold homeopathic drugs to several labeling requirements, and require production incompliance with current good manufacturing practices (with some minor exceptions).

The FDA prohibits "health fraud," defined as:

The deceptive promotion, advertisement, distribution or sale of articles, intended for human or animal use, that are presented as being effective to diagnose, prevent, cure, treat, or mitigate disease (or other conditions), or provide a beneficial effect on health, but which have not been scientifically proven safe and effective for such purposes. Such practices may be deliberate, or done without adequate knowledge or understanding of the article.

Only those homeopathic drugs that treat "self-limiting" conditions that the average consumer can recognize and diagnose are allowed to be marketed as OTC drugs. Homeopathic drugs that claim to treat serious diseases and those that require diagnosis by a physician, such as AIDS or cancer, must be marketed as prescription homeopathic drugs - they cannot be sold as an OTC drug.

The FDA requires that homeopathic drugs be properly labeled. “A drug or device shall be deemed to be misbranded if its labeling is false or misleading in any particular fashion.” Furthermore, Section 352 of the Act requires that the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor be placed on the package. Homeopathic drugs for retail sale must also bear adequate directions for use that can be interpreted by the average lay person, and their ingredients as well as the dilution of each active ingredient must be stated (with dilution stated as the number of 1:10 dilutions required to arrive at the final concentration of active ingredient). The label must also state at least one major indication for the drug, the drug's established name, and any applicable warnings.

The FDA requires that homeopathic drugs be manufactured in general conformance with current good manufacturing practice ("cGMP"). However, there are two exceptions to this requirement. First, homeopathic drugs do not require expiration dating. Second, the FDA does not presently require laboratory determination of the identity and strength of each active ingredient prior to the release and distribution of the drug on the market. For further information on the FDA's regulation of homeopathic drugs, see the FDA's Compliance Policy Guide, "Conditions Under Which Homeopathic Drugs May be Marketed," which is available on the FDA's website, www.fda.gov, are also subject to the U.S. Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994("DSHEA"). Under DSHEA a manufacturer must only supply the FDA with information adequate to provide "reasonable assurance that the product does not present a significant or unreasonable health risk of illness or injury." This information must be supplied at least 75 days before the product is available to consumers. DSHEA permits the labels of dietary supplements to contain truthful and non-misleading structure/function claims and nutritional support claims that describe the role of the nutrient in supporting wellness. Nutritional supplements are not allowed to make claims to diagnose, prevent, cure, treat, or mitigate disease.

Products

Gelstat(TM) Migraine

Gelstat Migraine is a patented homeopathic drug intended for use in providing acute relief from the pain and associated symptoms of migraine and migraine-like headaches. It is believed to be more effective if used early in the course of an attack, but may be used at any time. Gelstat Migraine is administered sublingually (under the tongue), where it is held in place briefly before being swallowed. Gelstat Migraine is provided in single dose dispensers, which are intended to ensure ease of use as well as consistent, accurate administration of medication.

In a clinical trial of 30 patients who consistently develop moderate to severe migraine headache pain were treated with Gelstat Migraine early in the course of an attack, while at the mild pain phase. The primary objective of the study was to assess the efficacy of Gelstat Migraine in providing acute relief from migraine headache pain and associated symptoms. Results demonstrated that migraine headache pain two hours after treatment was either mild or none in approximately 83% of patients. Pain-free response was obtained by 48% of patients, with 34% reporting only mild pain. Moderate pain was reported by 17% and severe pain by 0% (none). Of those pain-free at two hours, 71% remained pain-free during the 24 hour post-dose period and 85% remained pain-free or had only mild pain. Moderately painful headache recurred in 14% of patients and severely painful headache in 0%. Migraine associated symptoms such as photophobia, phonophobia and nausea were eliminated in 53% of those patients initially reporting such symptoms. Side effects were infrequent and minor.

Initial clinical trial data suggests that Gelstat Migraine may be more effective than competing OTC migraine relief products, and that it may not be associated with the side effects common to other OTC products, such as stomach upset, or the development of rebound headaches and chronic daily headaches. Prescription medications for migraine are generally associated with significant side effects, none of which have been reported or noted with use of Gelstat Migraine. Further details regarding this initial clinical trial are available on the Company’s website at www.gelstat.com. The information found at the Company's website is not incorporated in or made a part of this report on Form 10-K.

Gelstat(TM) Sleep

Gelstat(TM) Sleep is presently under final development and is intended to be marketed as a sleep aid. It was introduced to consumers in 2010 on a test basis to obtain data to determine product viability. Gelstat Sleep is expected to be marketed as a nutritional supplement for OTC (non-prescription) sales. The company plans to formally launch the product in the fourth quarter of 2012 contingent on raising any required capital.

Gelstat Sleep is provided as an orally dispersible tablet, a form of administration believed to be of particular benefit because of the rapid onset of absorption and the high percent of active ingredient absorbed. It is believed that Gelstat Sleep may offer consumers an effective OTC sleep aid without the risks and side effects associated with other OTC and prescription sleep aids.

The tablets are specifically formulated for effective delivery of active ingredients. Unlike nearly all other non-prescription sleep aids, Gelstat Sleep does not contain antihistamines. Antihistamines cause drowsiness, but they are often ineffective sleep aids, and have side effects that create problems for many users.

Gelstat Sleep is expected to employ a unique combination of active ingredients, each of which has independently been shown in some studies to be effective in promoting healthy sleep. Those ingredients are combined with proprietary adjuncts as part of the delivery system intended to provide rapid, effective and safe administration when used as directed. By utilizing an orally dispersible tablet to deliver the planned combination of ingredients, the Company hopes to offer a product that is substantially advantageous relative to competing products.

Sales and Marketing

Domestic Sales & Marketing

Gelstat intends to market and distribute its products initially through direct-to-consumer marketing efforts and then through drugstores and pharmacies, food stores, and mass merchandise retailers once the products have achieved significant brand recognition and until the Company has the capital to support its marketing efforts. Presently, Gelstat offers Gelstat Migraine for sale through its website and through a very limited number of retailers.

International Sales & Marketing

The global incidence of migraine and other conditions intended to be addressed by the Company's products approximates that found in the United States. Gelstat is pursuing international opportunities for Gelstat Migraine simultaneous with its current domestic sales and marketing activities.

Competition

There are numerous other companies that manufacture and market products that compete with the present and intended products of the Company. Most of the companies that compete with Gelstat have much greater market exposure, human resources and financial resources than the Company. Most of the products that compete with the Company's products have greater brand recognition, and have already achieved a certain amount of consumer acceptance.

The Company believes that Gelstat Migraine competes primarily with other OTC migraine medications. The OTC migraine market is based almost entirely on common analgesics, some having been slightly modified for use in the treatment of migraine (e.g. by the addition of caffeine). Typical competitors include products like Excedrin Migraine(R), Motrin Migraine(R) and Advil Migraine(R).

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs: ibuprofen, aspirin, etc.) have significant harmful side effects. Common side effects of these OTC analgesics include rebound headaches (both caffeine and NSAIDs have been implicated as a cause of rebound headaches), chronic daily headache, liver damage, kidney damage, ulcers and, less serious but more frequently encountered stomach upset. The Company also competes with prescription migraine treatments. Triptans are now recognized as the prescription drug of choice for most migraine patients, and have largely displaced other prescription medications. The proposed mechanism of action for all Triptans is vasoconstriction (narrowing of blood vessels) via binding with serotonin receptors on blood vessels leading to relief of migraine pain and associated symptoms.

Principal Suppliers

Gelstat is dependent on vendors, suppliers and strategic partners. The Company must reach and maintain agreements with third-parties to supply it with the accounting, management, manufacturing, packaging, public relations, advertising, clinical trials, product brokering and distribution, and other products and services necessary to affect its business plan. The Company believes that at least several alternative sources exist for each service and component purchased for and used in the manufacture and marketing of its products. However, Gelstat generally does not have long-term service agreements with those performing services for the Company or long-term supply agreements with suppliers to provide product at any set price or at all. In addition, Gelstat currently does not have the physical or human resources to independently manufacture its products or any other products that might be developed. While believing that alternate vendors could be found, the need to change vendors, should it arise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company intends to outsource all of its product manufacturing and packaging operations for the foreseeable future.

Intellectual Property

The Company plans to continuously define, expand and defend the intellectual property related to its products and delivery systems. The Company was issued United States patent number 7,192,614 relating to Gelstat Migraine on March 20, 2007. Intellectual property protection may be very important to the successful marketing and distribution of its products. Gelstat will therefore continue to file patent and other intellectual property applications to protect inventions and improvements that are considered important to the development of its products and business. Gelstat also relies on trade secrets, know how, continuing technological innovation and licensing opportunities to develop and maintain its competitive position.

Research and Development

Gelstat is a marketing driven company presently dedicated to products addressing migraine, and problem sleep. Each of these is a multi-billion dollar international market. Nonetheless, potential new product opportunities may be evaluated according to their likely competitive advantage (economic as well as clinical), potential market size, patentability, and suitability for sale as non-prescription products, likely consumer acceptance and perceived ability of the Company to successfully execute development and launch within the constraints of present opportunities.

Gelstat believes that clinical trials are essential to demonstrate efficacy in a manner recognized and accepted by the medical community as well as the consumer and, accordingly, plans to conduct clinical trials on every product it develops.

Due to capital constraints, Gelstat has currently suspended all R&D efforts and clinical trials but hopes to resume efforts in the future once capital is obtained.

Employees

Gelstat maintains an executive office in Palm City, Florida and a warehouse and distribution facility in Stuart, Florida. As of date of filing this Report, the Company had no employees.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Business

Our ability to continue as a going concern is in substantial doubt absent obtaining adequate new debt or equity financings.

Our continued existence is dependent upon us obtaining adequate working capital to fund all of our operations. Working capital limitations continue to impinge on our day-to-day operations, thus contributing to continued operating losses. Currently, the Company is entirely dependent on outside investments to support its operations. Thus, if we are unable to raise funds to fund the development, manufacturing and marketing of our products, we may not be able to continue as a going concern and you will lose your investment.

We have a limited recent operating history on which to evaluate our potential for future success and to determine if we will be able to execute our business plan. Therefore, it is difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risk of success or failure of our business.

Since we encountered severe financial problems in 2005, we have had very limited operations. Revenue has been limited to some website orders since we have lacked the capital for marketing. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we will encounter as an early-stage company. These risks include:

We may not be able to address these risks and difficulties, which could materially and adversely affect our revenue, operating results and our ability to continue to operate our business.

The success of our products is subject to ongoing and additional clinical trials which may not be successful.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) does not require homeopathic drugs to be submitted to pre-market approval and are not required to be tested for safety and effectiveness. Our GelStat Migraine product has undergone two clinical trials and additional trials may be required. In order to test the efficacy of the GelStat Migraine product, we have put it through a clinical trial and, if we have the necessary funding, anticipate putting the product through additional testing. Although this product has already undergone two clinical trials with favorable results, we cannot assure you that the results will be favorable in the future trials. Additionally, some consumers and retailers may defer purchasing the product until such time, if any, that such additional trials are successfully completed. The results of future clinical trials are expected to strongly affect the economic viability and perceived value of our products. There can be no assurance as to the outcome of future clinical trials on our current or future products. If the clinical trial results for any of the Company’s initial products suggest that any of them are not efficacious, or reveal unexpected problems such as serious side effects, the Company may be unable to successfully market the products even if we desired to do so. In such event, the Company’s results of operations will be adversely affected and you may lose your investment.

Because successful development of our products is uncertain, our results of operations may be materially harmed.

Our development of current and future products is subject to the risks of failure and delay inherent in the development of non-prescription consumer health care products, including but not limited to the following:

Because of these risks, our development efforts may not result in any commercially viable products. If a significant portion of these development efforts are not successfully completed, required regulatory approvals are not obtained, or any approved products are not commercialized successfully, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially harmed.

Any unanticipated problems with product development and commercialization develop or our products are found to be ineffective or unsafe, our business may fail.

Our successful development of existing and new products is subject to the risks of failure and delay inherent in the development and commercialization of products. We may experience unanticipated or otherwise negative research and development results. Existing or proposed products may be found to be ineffective or unsafe, or may otherwise fail to receive required regulatory clearance or approval. We may find that existing or proposed products, while effective, are uneconomical to commercialize or market. Existing or proposed products may not achieve broad market acceptance.

Because we will need to rely on third parties for the development, manufacture, sales and marketing of our current or future products, our future success will be dependent on the timeliness and effectiveness of the efforts of these third parties.

We do not have the capability and resources to manufacture, market or sell our current products or any future product. We intend to outsource all of our product manufacturing and packaging operations for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we will seek to enter, at the appropriate time, into agreements with other companies that can assist us and provide certain capabilities that we do not possess. Even if we do succeed in securing these alliances, we may not be able to maintain them if, for example, development results are disappointing or approval of a product (if required) is delayed or sales of a product are below expectations. Furthermore, any delay in entering into agreements could delay the development and commercialization of our products and reduce their competitiveness even if they reach the market. Any such delay related to our agreements could adversely affect our business. Further, failure by such parties to provide the agreed services at an acceptable level could adversely affect our business.

If our products gain widespread commercial acceptance, we could face potential difficulties in locating sufficient manufacturing sources.

We have used third parties to manufacture our products on a limited basis. If we are unable to produce our products in sufficient quantities at an acceptable cost, we may lose customers and our business could be harmed. Our ability to expand production could also be hindered by the availability of materials used to manufacture our products or the availability of qualified personnel. These difficulties could result in reduced quality of our products or reduced sales, which could damage our industry reputation and hurt our ability to generate revenues.

Because the consumer healthcare product market is subject to substantial regulation by regulatory agencies, if we do not obtain the requisite regulatory approvals we need to market our products, we will not be able to commercialize our products.

We believe that all of our current and planned products will be marketed either as homeopathic products or as dietary supplements, and that each will therefore be exempt from the new drug approval process required in the United States for prescription pharmaceuticals. The Company’s products, product development activities and manufacturing processes are nonetheless subject to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and by comparable agencies in foreign countries. In the U.S., the FDA regulates manufacturing, labeling and record keeping procedures even for non-prescription products. We use qualified third-party manufacturers to perform these services; however, if these third-parties do not comply with the regulations, we may not be able to sell our products. Nonetheless, the failure of such third parties to adhere to regulations could have a material adverse affect on our business.

In addition, product claims, labels, advertising and other communications with the public are closely monitored by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and states under their “Little FTC Acts”. Failure to comply with any of the numerous regulations which govern our industry could result in regulatory or enforcement actions which would have a material adverse affect on our business. In addition, we are subject to those risks associated with any highly regulated industry wherein regulations are subject to change that is both substantial and rapid. Regulatory change may force the Company to expend substantial time and money becoming compliant, may make the Company’s business more expensive to operate and the products less profitable, or not profitable at all, and might even prevent the Company from marketing one or more of its products. We are marketing our first product, GelStat Migraine, as an effective solution in alleviating migraine headaches. Under FDA and FTC rules, we are required to obtain scientific and/or clinical data to support any health claims we make concerning our products. Although we have neither provided nor been requested to provide any such data to the regulators in support of this claim, we have in fact obtained supporting scientific and clinical data. We cannot be certain, however, that the scientific and clinical data we have obtained or will obtain in the future in support of our claims will be deemed acceptable or sufficient by any regulator. If the FDA or the FTC requests any supporting information, and we are unable to provide support that is acceptable to the FDA or the FTC, either agency could force us to stop making the claims in question, which would most likely have a negative impact on sales. Regulatory actions may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

If any of our products are alleged to have unacceptable adverse effects, we could be subject to liability which would adversely affect our results of operations.

The Company faces an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in adverse effects. Any such claims would likely have an adverse effect on the Company. The Company currently has product liability insurance for claims against it up to one million dollars,on a per-occurrence basis. However, there can be no assurance that such coverage would protect the Company in every instance, or that a claim might not substantially exceed the limit of coverage beyond the Company’s ability to pay. Additionally, there can be no assurance that such insurance will continue to be available to the Company in the future on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If the Company is unable to continue its product liability insurance coverage for any reason, it may have a material impact on the retailer’s willingness to stock the Company’s products.

If we lose our Chief Executive Officer, our business may materially suffer.

We are highly dependent on Mr. Gerald Kieft, Chief Executive Officer, who is our sole officer and provides “as needed” services. We do not carry “key-man” life insurance on Mr. Kieft. Furthermore, our future success will also depend in part on our ability to identify, hire, and retain qualified personnel at senior and other management levels. We will experience intense competition for qualified personnel and may be unable to attract and retain the personnel necessary for the development of our business. Because of this competition, our compensation costs may increase significantly and our business may suffer.

If we fail to establish a method to sell, market or distribute our products, our results of operations would be adversely affected.

Because we have limited experience in the sale, marketing and distribution of consumer products, we intend on selling our products through the Internet, direct-to-consumer advertising and certain traditional retail outlets. To achieve this, may work with a number of brokers and distributors currently serving these markets. There can be no assurance that any broker or distributor will be able to place our product with the aforementioned channels, or that once such initial placement is achieved any retailer or other outlet will continue to carry our product, or that any broker or distributor will continue working with the Company and our products.

If we do not obtain protection for our intellectual property rights, our competitors may be able to take advantage of our research and development efforts to develop competing drugs.

Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to maintain the confidentiality of our trade secrets and know how, operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others and prevent others from infringing our proprietary rights. We have received a United States patent on our GelStat Migraine product however we cannot assure you that this patent will afford adequate protection to us. The Company has hired I.P. counsel to assist us with obtaining I.P. protection on our products in international markets. However, we cannot assure you that we will obtain any such I.P. protection on our products internationally.

Competitors may successfully challenge our intellectual property rights, produce similar drugs or products that do not infringe our patents, or produce drugs in countries where we have not applied for patent protection or that do not respect our patents.

If any of these events occurs, or we otherwise lose protection for our trade secrets or proprietary know-how, the value of this information may be greatly reduced. Patent protection and other intellectual property protection are important to the success of our business and prospects, and there is a substantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.

If we are subject to intellectual property infringement claims, it could cause us to incur significant expenses, pay substantial damages and prevent us from selling our products.

In the drug development business, third parties accumulate large portfolios of patents. Third parties may claim that our patent and/or products infringe or violate their intellectual property rights. Intellectual property litigation is characterized by unusually large legal fees, consulting and expert fees and other costs. Any claims that we are violating the intellectual property rights of another party could cause us to incur significant expenses which may likely exceed our capacity to pay the fees and costs. If successfully asserted against us, an adverse intellectual property claim is likely to require that we pay substantial damages in excess of our ability to pay and prevent us from using licensed technology that may be fundamental to our business. Even if we were to prevail, any litigation regarding intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming and divert our attention from our business operations. We may also be obligated to indemnify our business partners in any such litigation, which could further exhaust our resources. Furthermore, as a result of an intellectual property challenge, we may be prevented from selling our products unless we enter into royalty, license or other agreements. We may not be able to obtain such agreements at all or on terms acceptable to us, and as a result, we may be precluded from offering some or all of our products.

If we cannot manage our growth effectively, we may not become profitable.

Businesses, which grow rapidly often, have difficulty managing their growth. If we grow as rapidly as we anticipate, we will need to expand our management by recruiting and employing experienced executives and key employees capable of providing the necessary support. We cannot assure you that our management will be able to manage our growth effectively or successfully. Our failure to meet these challenges could cause us to lose money, and your investment could be lost.

Among other things, implementation of our growth strategy would be adversely affected if we were not able to attract sufficient customers to the products we offer in light of the price and other terms required in order for us to attain the necessary profitability.

Because of our limited experience in commercializing our products, the market acceptance of the Company’s products is uncertain.

Our success depends upon the acceptance by retail consumers of our products. Although we believe that our products are efficacious, and that they will meet with consumer acceptance, we have no assurance of that. There is only limited data by which to gauge consumer acceptance of the Company’s products. Most of the products that compete with the Company’s products have substantial brand recognition, and have already achieved a certain amount of consumer acceptance. Those consumers who presently use a competitor’s product to treat a condition designed to be treated by our products will have to be convinced to switch products, which is often difficult. We believe that the successful completion of clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of our products or, in the case of GelStat Migraine, additional clinical trials, may be essential for the successful marketing of these products, especially in light of entrenched competition. There can be no assurance that any clinical trials will be completed beyond the initial trials of GelStat Migraine that have already been completed, or that such additional clinical trials will demonstrate the same degree of efficacy as these initial trials, or any efficacy at all. Insufficient market acceptance of our products would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Although we plan to diversify our product offering, we may not be successful.

The Company proposes as an important part of its business plan to complete development of additional products related to arthritis, sinusitis and problem sleep. Offering new products is subject to a number of risks including:

No assurance can be given that the Company will ever be able to successfully design, develop, and market any such additional new products.

If economic conditions in the United States and elsewhere do not materially improve, we may be hampered by our ability to sell our products.

The sharp economic downturn in the United States and elsewhere beginning in 2008 and the resulting unemployment has a tendency to cause consumers to reduce spending except on necessities. While consumer healthcare products may be relatively resistant to this trend, to the extent that consumers lack disposable money we believe that we will be adversely affected. Unless and until the economy materially improves, we may be affected by these factors.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Because the market for our Common Stock is limited, persons who purchase our Common Stock may not be able to resell their shares at or above the purchase price paid by them.

Our Common Stock trades on the OTC Markets, which is not a liquid market.  There is currently only a limited public market for our Common Stock.  We cannot assure you that an active public market for our Common Stock will develop or be sustained in the future.  If an active market for our Common Stock does not develop or is not sustained, the price may continue to decline.

Because we are subject to the “penny stock” rules, brokers cannot generally solicit the purchase of our Common Stock which adversely affects its liquidity and market price.

The Securities and Exchange Commision (“SEC”) has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions.  The market price of our Common Stock on the OTC Markets has been substantially less than $5.00 per share and therefore we are currently considered a “penny stock” according to SEC rules.  This designation requires any broker-dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities.  These rules limit the ability of broker-dealers to solicit purchases of our Common Stock and therefore reduce the liquidity of the public market for our shares.

Due to factors beyond our control, our stock price may be volatile.

Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our Common Stock:

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted.  A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s time and attention, which would otherwise be used to benefit our business.

We may issue preferred stock without the approval of our shareholders, which could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us and could depress our stock price.

Our Board may issue, without a vote of our shareholders, one or more additional series of preferred stock that have more than one vote per share.  This could permit our Board to issue preferred stock to investors who support GelStat and our management and give effective control of our business to GelStat and our management.  Additionally, issuance of preferred stock could block an acquisition resulting in both a drop in our stock price and a decline in interest of our Common Stock.  This could make it more difficult for shareholders to sell their Common Stock.  This could also cause the market price of our Common Stock shares to drop significantly, even if our business is performing well.

An investment in GelStat may be diluted in the future as a result of the issuance of additional securities, the exercise of options or warrants or the conversion of outstanding preferred stock.

In order to raise additional capital to meet its working capital needs, GelStat expects to issue additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into Common Stock from time to time, which could result in substantial dilution to investors.  Investors should anticipate being substantially diluted based upon the current condition of the capital and credit markets.

Because we may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms, it could have a material impact upon the price of our Common Stock.

It is not likely that securities analysts of major brokerage firms will provide research coverage for our Common Stock since the firm itself cannot recommend the purchase of our Common Stock under the penny stock rules referenced in an earlier risk factor.  The absence of such coverage limits the likelihood that an active market will develop for our Common Stock. It may also make it more difficult for us to attract new investors at times when we acquire additional capital.

Since we intend to retain any earnings for development of our business for the foreseeable future, you will likely not receive any dividends for the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS 

None

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Gelstat presently operates out of an executive office under shared-use arrangement with WSR, a company headed by its Chief Executive Officer, in Palm City, Florida and leases a warehouse/distribution facility of approximately 2,100 square feet in Stuart, Florida. The Company believes that its facilities are adequate for its operations for the foreseeable future and that each of such facilities could be replaced without great difficulty.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. We are not party to any material litigation.

On July 30, 2004, the Company and Stephen Roberts, the Company's then chairman and chief executive officer, were served with a Summons and Complaint entitled "Peter Hauser vs. GelStat Corporation and Stephen C. Roberts." Mr. Hauser, a former director of the Company, alleged that he was owed options to purchase Company stock and cash fees in connection with his service as a director. Mr. Hauser asserted a claim for damages in the amount of $725,000 based on the price of the Company stock plus the amount of unpaid cash fees. The case went to trial November 2006. Gelstat prevailed on all accounts except for $5,000 which was paid to Mr. Hauser July 6, 2006.

On September 13, 2004, the Company was served with a Summons and Complaint entitled "Michael C. Borman vs. GelStat Corporation." Mr. Borman, a former employee of the Company, alleged that he was owed wages, severance and options to purchase Company stock and cash fees in connection with his service as an employee. Mr. Borman asserted a claim for damages in the amount of $226,667 based on the price of the Company stock plus the amount of unpaid wages and severance. A pre-trial agreement was reached March 2006 wherein Mr. Borman was issued 175,000 shares of common stock and 50,000 shares of restricted stock pursuant to a Consultant Agreement dated January 26, 2006.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Please refer to the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto which is a part of this report for further information regarding the results of operations of the Company.

Company Overview

Gelstat Corporation ("the Company" or "Gelstat") is a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of over-the-counter (OTC) and other non-prescription consumer health care products. The Company's first product is "Gelstat® Migraine", a patented OTC homeopathic drug intended for use as a first-line, acute treatment for migraine and migraine-like headaches. Gelstat Migraine is intended to provide acute (at the time of an attack) relief from headache pain as well as other symptoms frequently associated with migraine. Gelstat(TM) Sleep is presently under final development and is intended to be marketed as a sleep aid. It was introduced to consumers in 2010 on a test basis to obtain data to determine product viability. Gelstat Sleep is expected to be classified as a dietary supplement.

Current sales and marketing efforts are focused primarily on Gelstat Migraine.

Critical Accounting Policies

In response to financial reporting release FR-60, Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies, from the SEC, we have selected our more subjective accounting estimation processes for purposes of explaining the methodology used in calculating the estimate, in addition to the inherent uncertainties pertaining to the estimate and the possible effects on the our financial condition. The accounting estimates are discussed below and involve certain assumptions that, if incorrect, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Inventories

We value our inventory at the lower of the actual cost or the current estimated market value of the inventory. Management reviews sales, shipped goods and available inventory quantities on a weekly basis and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory if considered necessary. Changes in the marketplace or introduction of new products could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with the Securities Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104) "Revenue Recognition", the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists or acceptance occurs, shipment has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and the sales revenues are considered collectible. Subject to these criteria, except with respect to customers that buy products on Pay on Scan terms, we recognize revenue at the time of shipment of the merchandise.

Stock-Based Compensation

In accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method for measuring stock-based compensation cost which measures compensation cost as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the grant date over the amount the employee must pay for the stock. The Company's general policy is to grant stock options at fair value at the date of grant. Options and warrants issued to employees are recorded at fair value, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," (SFAS No. 123), using the Black Scholes pricing model. The Company has adopted the disclosure only provision of SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."

Fair Value of Liabilities for Warrant and Embedded Conversion Option Derivative Instruments

We estimate the fair value of each warrant and embedded conversion option at the issuance date and at each subsequent reporting date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon certain assumptions which are contained in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Report. The Black-Scholes model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our warrants have characteristics different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input of assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in our management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of such warrants.

Results of Operations

Year to year operating comparisons are of only limited value since the Company commenced shipping its first product in June 2004 and by late 2005, the Company became insolvent and only marketed its products on a limited basis. However, the following is an overview of income and expenses during the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the year ended December 31, 2004.

The Company had gross revenues of $504,092, excluding required revenue recognition adjustments of $166,053, for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company had gross revenues of $598,882, excluding required revenue recognition adjustments of $354,032, for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in net revenue in 2005 is attributable to a reduction in 2005 revenue adjustments.

Cost of goods sold for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $354,806 and $564,975, respectively. The decrease in cost of goods sold expense in 2005 is attributable to a reduction in production and assembly costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $3,627,627 and $5,384,516, respectively. The decrease in 2005 compared to 2004 is due to the reduction in television and radio advertising in 2005.

The Company incurred $71,464 and $166,905 in research and development expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. The decrease in 2005 compared to 2004 is due to the reduction in clinical trial expense.

The Company incurred $252,772 and $184,986 in interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. The increase in 2005 compared to 2004 is due to the increase in notes payable issued.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flows used in operating activities were $1,982,763 and $5,649,837 for the years ended December31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Negative cash flows from operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 were due primarily to the net loss of $5,792,011, partially offset by the common stock and warrants issued for services. Negative cash flows from operations for year ended December 31, 2004 were due primarily to the net loss of $6,222,975, partially offset by the amortization of original discount and common stock issued for services.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $83,824 during the year ended December 31, 2005 consisting primarily of patent acquisition costs. Comparatively, cash flows of $134,184 used in investing activities during the period in 2004 were due primarily to the purchase of property and equipment and patent acquisition costs.

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $2,118,816 and $5,539,502 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Positive cash flows from financing activities during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were due primarily to proceeds from issuance of common stock.

Cash was $225,548 at December 31, 2005, representing an increase of $52,228 from the cash position of the Company as of December 31, 2004, which was $173,320. The change is attributable to the cash flow impact of timing of collections related to sales activity, inventory build and other working capital requirements, partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of common stock and disbursements related to business operations.

As of the date of filing this Report, the Company had $5,000 cash. While planning to raise additional capital, the Company believes that, in the event additional capital is unavailable, cash on hand plus cash flow from operations could fund operations for the next 12 months, though such operations would be substantially reduced in scope from those presently envisioned. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or on any terms whatsoever. In addition, the Company may evaluate potential acquisitions and alliances, which may require equity or cash resources. The Company's ability to continue the present operations and successfully implement its development plans is contingent upon its ability to increase revenues and ultimately attain and sustain profitable operations and/or raise additional capital.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of GelStat Corporation and Subsidiary

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GelStat Corporation and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005. 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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. Our audits included consideration of 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 the Company as of December 31, 2005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency as of December 31, 2005. These conditions 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 14. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GELSTAT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004

NOTE 1 - Organization and Business Background

GelStat Corporation ("the Company" or "GelStat") is a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of over-the-counter (OTC) and other non-prescription consumer health care products. While development efforts ceased in 2005 due to lack of capital, its efforts were focused on proprietary, innovative products that addressed multi-billion dollar global markets.

On May 9, 2003, Developed Technology Resource, Inc. (DTR) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting the merger of GelStat Corp. with NP Acquisition Corp. (NP Acquisition), then a wholly owned subsidiary of DTR. The stock exchange transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of NP Acquisition, whereby Gelstat is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and NP Acquisition to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer).  The accompanying consolidated financial statements are in substance those of Gelstat, with the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, of NP Acquisition being included effective from the date of stock exchange transaction.  NP Acquisition is deemed to be a continuation of the business of Gelstat.  Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the following:

(1)         The balance sheet consists of the net assets of the accounting acquirer at historical cost and the net assets of the accounting acquiree at historical cost; 

(2)         The financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the accounting acquirer for all periods presented as if the recapitalization had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented and the operations of the accounting acquiree from the date of stock exchange transaction.

On October 6, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock dividend in the amount of one share for each share held of record. All share data is presented to give effect to the retroactive application of the stock dividend as if it occurred on June 25, 2002 (date of inception of GelStat Corp.) All share data has been restated to give effect of the merger under which each GelStat Corp. share was converted into .4360083 shares of DTR as adjusted for the stock dividend declared on July 19, 2004.

Effective July 14, 2003, DTR changed its name to GelStat Corporation. Effective March 17, 2004, GS Corp. was merged into its parent, GelStat Corporation.

In 2004, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, GS Pharma, Inc. (GS Pharma), to pursue various pharmaceutical (prescription drug) opportunities that might exist relative to the Company's intellectual property.

NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.

Management's Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary. All inter-company balances and transactions within the Company and subsidiary have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. As of December 31, 2005, the Company did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first out (FIFO) method) or market. Inventory items replaced by an alternative and rendered unusable or diminished in value are considered to be obsolete. Obsolete inventory items are written down to zero.

Intangible Assets

Patent cost, including legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining this patent, will be amortized over the life of the patent using the straight-line method after the patent is approved by the authorities.

Revenue Recognition

The Company sells its products to a number of leading regional and national retailers, wholesalers, specialty distributors and catalog merchandisers, both directly and through the services of external sales brokers. In accordance with the Securities Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104) "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and the sales revenues are considered collectible. Subject to these criteria, except with respect to customers that buy products on Pay on Scan terms, the Company recognizes revenue at the time of shipment of the merchandise. The Company recognizes Pay-on-Scan sales as revenues at the earliest of the following events: 1) the Company is notified of the customer's sales through periodic sales reports; 2) the Company receives payments from the customer; or 3) the customer reorders a specified quantity of the relevant product. Pay-on-Scan revenue recognition treatment typically ends when persuasive evidence exists that a customer or distributor has agreed to terminate the Pay-on-Scan arrangement in favor of a traditional sales arrangement.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenues consists primarily of product costs and shipping and handling, which are directly attributable to the sale of products.

Advertising

Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred.

Research and Development Costs

The company expenses research and development costs as incurred.

Depreciation

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when incurred.

Impairment

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income tax using FASB ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation

In accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method for measuring stock-based compensation cost which measures compensation cost as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the grant date over the amount the employee must pay for the stock. The Company's general policy is to grant stock options at fair value at the date of grant. Options and warrants issued to employees are recorded at fair value, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," (SFAS No. 123), using the Black Scholes pricing model. The Company has adopted the disclosure only provision of SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."

Net Loss per Common Share

The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”.  Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. No diluted loss per share is required to be represented.

Recent Accounting Standards

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

The application was pending as of December 31, 2005. Legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining this patent were capitalized in the amount of $11,834 as of December 31, 2005.
