PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This periodic report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive positions, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of management. Statements in this periodic report that are not historical facts are hereby identified as forward-looking statements.
BUSINESS
Organization and Corporate History
American Eagle Group, Inc. (American Eagle or the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 3, 1986. American Eagle operated as an insurance holding company that, through its subsidiaries, marketed and underwrote specialized property and casualty coverage in the general aviation insurance marketplace. Historically, the Company's business has been organized into three divisions. In 1997, after selling several of its divisions, the Companys remaining insurance operations were placed into receivership and the Company ceased operating its insurance business. Since the Company terminated its business operations, management has been focused on settling debts and closing outstanding operations.
Since the termination of its prior business, American Eagle has had no operations other than seeking an acquisition or merger to bring an operating entity into the Company. The Companys sole executive officer, Kip Eardley, does not propose to restrict his search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and may, therefore, engage in essentially any business in any industry. American Eagle has unrestricted discretion in seeking and participating in a business opportunity, subject to the availability of such opportunities, economic conditions, and other factors.
The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, the Company has only limited resources and may find it difficult to locate good opportunities. There can be no assurance that Mr. Eardley will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to American Eagle and its stockholders. Mr. Eardley will select any potential business opportunity based on his business judgment.
Currently, Mr. Eardley is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of Mr. Eardley, will provide a source of eventual profit to the American Eagle shareholders. Such involvement may take many forms, including the acquisition of an existing business or the acquisition of assets to establish subsidiary businesses. At this time, Mr. Eardley has been focused on investigating whether there are merger and acquisition activities in certain targeted industries. To this end, he has focused on resource and energy industries. These efforts have been focused on discussions with management in these industries.
American Eagle is not currently conducting any business, nor has it conducted any business for several years. Therefore, it does not possess products or services, distribution methods, competitive business positions, or major customers. The Company does not possess any unexpired patents or trademarks and any and all of its licensing and royalty agreements from the insurance it sought to market in the past have since expired, and are not currently valid. American Eagle does not employ any employees.
The activities of the Company are subject to several significant risks which arise primarily as a result of the fact that American Eagle has no specific business and may acquire or participate in a business opportunity based on the decision of Mr. Eardley, which potentially could act without the consent, vote, or approval of the Company's stockholders. The risks faced by the Company are further increased as a result of its lack of resources and its inability to provide a prospective business opportunity with significant capital.
Products and Services
American Eagle currently does not have any products or services.
Marketing Strategy
Other than Mr. Eardleys efforts to locate potential merger or acquisition candidates, the Company does not engage in any marketing or advertising and does not anticipate that it will engage in such activity until a merger or acquisition is complete. The Company does not anticipate spending significant resources on marketing or advertisement and relies more on personal contacts in looking for potential merger or acquisition candidates.
3
Regulations
The Company does not believe it faces extensive regulations. Mr. Eardley will have to review the potential regulations of any company American Eagle merges with or acquires. At this time, investors and stockholders will not be able to evaluate the potential regulations the Company faces until a potential merger or acquisition candidate is identified.
Description of Property
American Eagle currently utilizes the office space provided by its CEO on a rent free basis. Mr. Eardley believes this space will be sufficient until American Eagle completes a merger or acquisition.
Technology
American Eagle currently does not have any technology, nor until it completes a merger or acquisition, does it anticipate having any technology that separates it from other companies.
Competitors
American Eagle faces competition from other companies seeking mergers and acquisitions. It will be up to Mr. Eardley and his contacts to be able to find potential merger or acquisition companies. Many companies seeking mergers will have better funding and management teams which have had more success in completing mergers and acquisitions.
Concentration of Customers
American Eagle does not have any concentration of customers.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts, including Duration
American Eagle has no patents or trademarks. American Eagle also has no franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts.
Research and Development Costs During the Last Two Fiscal Years
American Eagle has not engaged in any research and development in the last two years.
Employees
American Eagle does not have any employees. Kip Eardley is American Eagles sole officer. Mr. Eardley is currently not receiving compensation for his services and American Eagle does not plan on paying any compensation to Mr. Eardley.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
American Eagles operations are subject to a number of risks including:
American Eagle may have insufficient resources to cover its operating expenses, and consummating a business combination could lead to it being forced to shut down or to have to raise capital at prices that would result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.
As of the 12-31-2011 fiscal year end, American Eagle had a cash balance in the bank of $51. Additionally, the Companys liabilities at December 31, 2011, were $12,455. The Company had a working capital deficit of $12,404 and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011, were $9,379. Mr. Eardley estimates legal, accounting and related costs to be up to $15,000 per year to maintain SEC reporting requirements. Monies spent on investigating possible business ventures, and the $10,900 and the $1,500 promissory notes currently owing to Mr. Eardley, will need to be paid back to Mr. Eardley by the Company. These amounts could be significant and could preclude certain companies from having an interest in completing a business combination with the Company. The Company has limited cash to cover its operating expenses for the next 12 months and to cover the expenses incurred in connection with a business combination, and given the Companys lack of funds, it would be difficult to reimburse Mr. Eardley. It is possible that the Company could incur substantial costs in connection with a business combination. If American Eagle does not have sufficient cash available to cover its expenses, it may be forced to either shut down or obtain additional financing, either from Mr. Eardley or third parties. Mr. Eardley may not be able to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, if at all, and neither Mr. Eardley nor any third party is obligated to provide any financing. It is likely any future funds obtained would result in a substantial dilution to current stockholders.
4
The nature of American Eagles operations is speculative and the success of its plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the companies with which it may merge or which it acquires, and current investors will be investing in the new management and business without the ability to review such management or business with all the risk associated therewith including the possibility the Company will not be successful.
While Mr. Eardley intends to seek a merger or acquisition of privately held entities with established operating histories, there can be no assurance that Mr. Eardley will be successful in locating an acquisition candidate meeting such criteria. Additionally, Mr. Eardley, American Eagles sole officer and director has limited experience in locating and evaluating potential business opportunities or merger candidates. In the event the Company completes a merger or acquisition transaction, of which there can be no assurance, its success, if any, will be dependent upon the operations, financial condition and management of the acquired company, and upon numerous other factors beyond Mr. Eardleys control. Stockholders will be dependent on the judgment of Mr. Eardley in making acquisition or merger decisions.
Investors will not be able to assess specific business risks because the Company has not identified the business opportunities in which it will attempt to obtain an interest and, as such, investors and stockholders will be placing their money in an unknown investment.
Due to the fact that the Company has not identified a target business for acquisition, the Company cannot describe the specific risks presented by such business. Among other risks, such target business may involve an unproven product, technology or marketing strategy, the ultimate success of which cannot be assured. The target business may be in competition with larger, more established firms which may have many competitive advantages over the target business. American Eagles investment in a target business may be highly risky and illiquid, and could result in a total loss if the acquired business is unsuccessful. Additionally, as long as Mr. Eardley has majority control of the voting shares of the Company, which will most likely be the case until a merger or acquisition is completed, shareholders will not have the ability to evaluate or approve any potential business opportunities.
Control of the Company, its direction and any business decisions such as potential companies to merge with will remain with Mr. Eardley, the sole officer and director.
Kip Eardley, the sole officer and director of the Company, has the ability to control the shareholder vote through his ownership of 1,000,000 shares of Series E Preferred stock, which contain a provision for 10 votes for each preferred share. Accordingly, Mr. Eardleys 1,000,000 Series E Preferred shares provide 10,000,000 votes to Mr. Eardley, which effectively gives Mr. Eardley 59 percent of the voting control of the Company. Through not only the control of management, but Mr. Eardleys voting power, Mr. Eardley will be able to control the Company and its directions and business decisions. Current shareholders will not be able to remove Mr. Eardley through a shareholder vote given his voting power and any vote of shareholders on corporate matters will be able to be controlled by Mr. Eardley. Therefore, Mr. Eardley, alone, and not the owners of common stock of the Company, will have discretion over any decisions made by the Company, such as a decision to enter into a particular business combination transaction.
American Eagles limited funds and the lack of full-time management will likely make it difficult to conduct a complete and exhaustive investigation and analysis of a business opportunity, and, as such, the likelihood that an acquisition is not successful is very high, and investors or stockholders could lose all of their investment.
Mr. Eardleys decision to commit American Eagles capital or other resources to an acquisition will likely be made without detailed feasibility studies, independent analysis and market surveys. Mr. Eardley will be particularly dependent in making decisions upon information provided by the promoter, owner, sponsor, or others associated with the business opportunity seeking American Eagles participation. There are numerous individuals, publicly held companies, and privately held companies seeking merger and acquisition prospects. There is significant competition among such groups for merger and acquisition prospects and the number of suitable and attractive prospects is limited and the Company may find a scarcity of suitable companies with audited financial statements seeking merger partners. Additionally, with limited financial and managerial resources, Mr. Eardley will be limited in his review of any prospective mergers or acquisition companies, potentially increasing the risk of such a merger or acquisition. As such, it is possible that any merger or acquisition will not be successful, resulting in the bankruptcy of the Company and the loss of an investors or stockholders entire investment.
The Companys auditors have indicated in their audit opinion that there is a substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern which will affect American Eagles ability to raise capital or borrow money.
The Companys auditors have issued an audit opinion indicating that there is a substantial doubt about American Eagles ability to remain as a going concern. As such, any potential investor or lender is unlikely to be willing to provide additional capital or loans to the Company. We will, therefore, most likely have to continue to rely on the financial support of American Eagles sole officer and director, Kip Eardley. Mr. Eardley has provided capital in the past but may at some point in the future be unwilling or unable to provide additional capital. If Mr. Eardley did not provide additional capital, it is highly likely the Company would go out of business and shareholders would lose their entire investment in the Company.
5
Attracting new directors and officers may be expensive, and may require that American Eagle enters into long-term employment agreements, issue stock options, and otherwise provide incentives to the new directors and officers which could dilute current stockholders or decrease American Eagles stock price leading to losses for current stockholders.
The Company may need to attract new directors and officers in order to achieve its business objective, which is to acquire one or more domestic and/or foreign operating businesses. Attracting new directors and officers may be expensive, and may require that the Company enters into long-term employment agreements, issues stock options, and otherwise provides incentives to the new directors and officers which may further dilute current stockholders or cause a decrease in American Eagles stock price leading to losses for current stockholders.
As the Company will have only a limited ability to evaluate potential new directors and officers, and the management of target businesses, investors or stockholders will be placing their money with a management team that they have not had an opportunity to evaluate, increasing the risk investors or stockholders may lose their entire investment.
Mr. Eardley may make a determination that he, as the current director and officer, should not remain, or should reduce his role, following money raising or a business combination, based on an assessment of the experience and skill sets of new directors and officers and the management of target businesses. Mr. Eardley cannot make assurances that his assessment of these individuals will prove to be correct. This could have a negative impact on the Company and its stock price. Such an impact could result in the loss of an investors or stockholders entire investment.
American Eagles director and sole officer, Mr. Eardley, allocates time to other businesses, thereby causing conflicts of interest in his determination as to how much time to devote to American Eagles affairs which increases the likelihood the Company will not be successful or that the Company will not be able to respond timely to business opportunities resulting in the Company not being successful.
Mr. Eardley does not work full time for American Eagle and may have outside business interests that directly conflict with those of American Eagle. This could have a negative impact on the Companys ability to consummate money raising or a business combination. Mr. Eardley is not required to, and does not, commit his full time to American Eagles affairs, thereby causing conflicts of interest in allocating his time between American Eagles operations and the operations of other businesses. Mr. Eardley is engaged in other business endeavors and is not obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per day or per week to American Eagles affairs. This situation limits Mr. Eardleys ability to devote time to Company affairs and could have a negative impact on the Companys ability to consummate a business combination. Currently, Mr. Eardley sets aside approximately 50% of his time in addressing the operations of American Eagle. The remainder of Mr. Eardleys time is applied to benefitting privately held companies. None of these companies are seeking business combination transactions or public offerings of any kind.
American Eagle does not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination. If the Company is unable to consummate a business combination, Mr. Eardley will be forced to shut down the operations of American Eagle, resulting in the loss of the stockholders investments.
There is a lack of meaningful public market for American Eagles securities and investors or stockholders should look to an investment in us as a long-term, illiquid investment which they may not be able to resell.
Although the Companys common stock is listed for trading on the Pink Sheets, at present, no active market exists and no broker/dealers are actively making a market in American Eagles common stock, resulting in little trading activity and buyers for the Companys common stock. Therefore, there is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop and if developed, that it will be sustained. A purchaser of stock may, therefore, be unable to resell American Eagles common stock should he or she desire to do so. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept American Eagles common stock as pledged collateral for loans. Investors should therefore look at American Eagles stock as an illiquid, long-term investment that they may never be able to resell.
6
The Companys acquisitions of businesses may be extremely risky and it could lose all or part of shareholder and investor investments and it is unlikely the Company would be able to survive following a loss of its investment or a merger with such a company.
Companies American Eagle merges with or acquires will generally be less established or still trying to obtain profitability. An investment in these companies may be extremely risky because, among other things, the companies it is likely to focus on:
·
typically have limited operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors actions and market conditions, as well as general economic downturns;
·
tend to be privately-owned and generally have little publicly available information and, as a result, the Company may not learn all of the material information it needs to know regarding these businesses;
·
are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of people; and, as a result, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these people could have an adverse impact on the operations of any business that the Company may acquire;
·
may have less predictable operating results;
·
may from time to time be parties to litigation;
·
may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence; and
·
may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position.
With these risks, it is likely such a company would not be successful, which would result in the Company having to close operations since it would be dependent on the success of such a company.
A relatively small number of stockholders and managers have significant influence over American Eagle and other stockholders will not be able to have a voice in the direction of the company and stockholders may disagree with the decisions of management.
Mr. Eardley would be able to exert significant influence over American Eagle through his ability to influence the election of directors and all other matters that require action by the American Eagle stockholders. The voting power of Mr. Eardley could have the effect of preventing or delaying a change in control of the Company which he opposes, even if other American Eagle stockholders believe it is in their best interests. In addition, Mr. Eardley has the ability to influence American Eagles day-to-day operations. These factors could negatively affect American Eagle and its stock price as other investors may be unwilling to invest in a company with such a consolidation of control. Additionally, if stockholders dislike the decisions of Mr. Eardley, it will be difficult for stockholders to get rid of him and with Mr. Eardleys current majority voting power, common shareholders will not have an opportunity to evaluate or approve any potential business opportunities.
There is a significant likelihood of dilution of American Eagles existing stockholders which could result in the loss on any investment by existing stockholders.
It is likely that the anticipated value of the business and/or assets that American Eagle acquires relative to the current value of our securities will result in the issuance of a relatively large number of shares and, as a result, American Eagle current stockholders could experience substantial dilution to their percentage ownership. If such dilution were to occur, the price of American Eagles stock would be negatively impacted resulting in possible losses for existing stockholders.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company owns no properties and utilizes space on a rent-free basis from Kip Eardley, the Companys officer and director. This arrangement is expected to continue until such time as the Company becomes involved in a business venture which necessitates its relocation, as to which no assurances can be given. The Company has no agreements with respect to the maintenance or future acquisition of the office facilities, however, if a successful merger/acquisition is negotiated, it is anticipated that the office of the Company will be moved to that of the acquired company.
The Company is not actively engaged in conducting any business. Rather, the Company is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of Mr. Eardley, will provide a source of eventual profit to the Company. Therefore, the Company does not presently intend to invest in real estate or real estate securities, nor has it formulated any investment policies regarding investments in real estate, real estate mortgages, or securities of or interests in persons engaged in real estate activities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements in this Report constitute forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause American Eagles actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, among others, uncertainties relating to general economic and business conditions; industry trends; changes in demand for American Eagles products and services; uncertainties relating to customer plans and commitments and the timing of orders received from customers; announcements or changes in American Eagles pricing policies or that of American Eagles competitors; unanticipated delays in the development, market acceptance or installation of American Eagles products and services; changes in government regulations; availability of management and other key personnel; availability, terms and deployment of capital; relationships with third-party equipment suppliers; and worldwide political stability and economic growth. The words believe, expect, anticipate, intend and plan and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. American Eagle believes there have been no significant changes during the year ended December 31, 2011.
American Eagles accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the audited financial statements. As discussed in Note 1, the preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions about the future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual differences could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. American Eagle believes that the following addresses American Eagles most critical accounting policies.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). Under SAB 104, revenue is recognized at the point of passage to the customer of title and risk of loss, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the sales price is determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
American Eagles allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to provide for losses arising from customers inability to make required payments. If there is deterioration of customers credit worthiness and/or there is an increase in the length of time that the receivables are past due greater than the historical assumptions used, additional allowances may be required.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASC 740-20, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under FASC 740-20, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets will be reflected on the balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized.
PLAN OF OPERATION.
American Eagle is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of management, will provide a source of eventual profit to American Eagle. Such involvement may take many forms, including the acquisition of an existing business or the acquisition of assets to establish subsidiary businesses. Mr. Eardley does not expect to remain involved as management of any acquired business.
American Eagle possesses limited funds and will be extremely limited in its attempts to locate potential business situations for investigation. American Eagle has commenced the process of investigating possible merger and acquisition candidates, and believes that American Eagles status as a publicly-held corporation will enhance its ability to locate such potential business ventures. No assurance can be given as to when Mr. Eardley may locate suitable business opportunities and such opportunities may be difficult to locate; however, Mr. Eardley intends to actively search for potential business ventures for the foreseeable future.
10
Business opportunities, if any arise, are expected to become available to American Eagle principally from the personal contacts of Mr. Eardley. While it is not expected that American Eagle will engage professional firms specializing in business acquisitions or reorganizations, such firms may be retained if funds become available in the future, and if deemed advisable. Opportunities may thus become available from professional advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and other sources of unsolicited proposals. Mr. Eardley is unable to predict at this time the cost of locating a suitable business opportunity.
The analysis of business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of Mr. Eardley. Mr. Eardley does not have significant experience in evaluating potential mergers or acquisitions. Among the factors which he will consider in analyzing potential business opportunities are the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and financial requirements; the history of operation, if any; future prospects; the nature of present and anticipated competition; potential for further research, developments or exploration; growth and expansion potential; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products or services; name identification, and other relevant factors.
It is not possible at present to predict the exact manner in which American Eagle may participate in a business opportunity. Specific business opportunities will be reviewed and, based upon such review, the appropriate legal structure or method of participation will be decided upon by management. Such structures and methods may include, without limitation, leases, purchase and sale agreements, licenses, joint ventures; and may involve merger, consolidation or reorganization. The Company may act directly or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation or reorganization. However, it is most likely that any acquisition of a business venture American Eagle would make would be by conducting a reorganization involving the issuance of American Eagles restricted securities. Such a reorganization may involve a merger (or combination pursuant to state corporate statutes, where one of the entities dissolves or is absorbed by the other), or it may occur as a consolidation, where a new entity is formed and American Eagle and such other entity combine assets in the new entity. A reorganization may also occur, directly or indirectly, through subsidiaries, and there is no assurance that American Eagle would be the surviving entity. Any such reorganization could result in loss of control of a majority of the shares. Mr. Eardley or other members of management, if any, at the time of a reorganization may be required to resign in connection with a reorganization. Substantial dilution of percentage equity ownership may result to the stockholders. The Company may choose to enter into a venture involving the acquisition of or merger with a company which does not need substantial additional capital but desires to establish a public trading market of its securities. Such a company may desire to consolidate its operations with American Eagle through a merger, reorganization, asset acquisition, or other combination, in order to avoid possible adverse consequences of undertaking its own public offering. Such consequences might include expense, time delays or loss of voting control. In the event of such a merger, American Eagle may be required to issue significant additional shares, and it may be anticipated that control over American Eagles affairs may be transferred to others.
As part of his investigation of acquisition possibilities, Mr. Eardley may meet with executive officers of the business and its personnel; inspect its facilities; obtain independent analysis or verification of the information provided, and conduct other reasonable measures, to the extent permitted by American Eagles limited resources and Mr. Eardleys limited expertise. Generally, Mr. Eardley intends to analyze and make a determination based upon all available information without reliance upon any single factor as controlling.
It may be anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention, and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others. Should a decision thereafter be made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, it is likely that costs already expended would not be recoverable. It is likely, in the event a transaction should eventually fail to be consummated, for any reason, that the costs incurred by American Eagle would not be recoverable. Mr. Eardley is entitled to reimbursement for all expenses incurred in his investigation of possible business ventures on behalf of American Eagle, and no assurance can be given that if American Eagle has available funds they will not be depleted by such expenses.
Based on current economic and regulatory conditions, Mr. Eardley believes that it is possible, for a company like American Eagle, without many assets to negotiate a merger or acquisition with a viable private company. The opportunity arises principally because of the high legal and accounting fees and the length of time associated with the registration process of going public. However, should any of these conditions change, it is very possible that there would be little or no economic value for anyone taking over control of American Eagle.
Mr. Eardley believes the best chance to obtain value for the stockholders is to seek a merger or acquisition with an existing business. At this time, Mr. Eardley has not been able to locate any potential mergers or acquisitions.
The Company is not able to determine the time or resources that will be necessary to locate and acquire or merge with a business prospect. There is no assurance that American Eagle will be able to acquire an interest in any such prospects, products or opportunities that may exist or that any activity of American Eagle, regardless of the completion of any transaction, will be profitable.
If and when Mr. Eardley locates a business opportunity, he will give consideration to the dollar amount of that entity's profitable operations and the adequacy of its working capital in determining the terms and conditions under which American Eagle would consummate such an acquisition. Potential business opportunities, no matter which form they may take, will most likely result in substantial dilution for American Eagle's stockholders due to the issuance of stock to acquire such an opportunity.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
December 31, 2011 and 2010
On December 31, 2011, American Eagle had $51 in assets and $12,455 in liabilities compared to assets of $1,975 and no liabilities at December 31, 2010 American Eagle has only incidental ongoing expenses primarily associated with maintaining its corporate status and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. At this time, it is anticipated American Eagle will have access to sufficient resources to pay ongoing expenses for the next year. If the Company needs additional resources, Mr. Eardley has indicated willingness to loan additional funds to the Company but Mr. Eardley has limited resources and may not be able or willing to continue to loan or provide additional financing to the Company. As Mr. Eardley continues to investigate opportunities, he may experience additional expenses. These additional expenses for consultants, attorneys and accountants could increase quickly. Mr. Eardley does believe American Eagle expenses will increase in the future as American Eagle will be required to make filings, including 10-K and 10-Q filings, with the SEC.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
December 31, 2011 and 2010
For the year ended December 31, 2011, American Eagle had no revenues, a $9,324 loss from operations and a net loss of $9,379, primarily related to maintaining the Companys corporate status, accounting and legal fees. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company had no revenue and expenses of $1,400 related to maintaining the corporate status, accounting and legal fees. Expenses increased as a result of audits of the Companys financial statements in 2011. Mr. Eardley anticipates only nominal continuing expenses and does anticipate expenses to increase in the future as American Eagle becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC. Additionally, if a business is commenced or acquired, expenses would increase.
American Eagle has not generated revenue during the past three years. It is unlikely that any revenue will be generated until American Eagle locates a business opportunity with which to acquire or merge. Mr. Eardley will be investigating various business opportunities. These efforts may cost American Eagle not only out of pocket expenses for its management but also expenses associated with legal and accounting costs. There can be no guarantee that American Eagle will receive any benefits from the efforts of Mr. Eardley to locate business opportunities. American Eagles financial statements contain a going concern opinion on American Eagles ability to continue in business.
The Company does not anticipate employing any employees in the future until a merger or acquisition can be accomplished. The Company will continue to rely on outside consultants to assist in its corporate filing requirements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
American Eagle has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management evaluated the effectiveness of American Eagles disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, American Eagles President and Principal Financial Officer concluded that American Eagles disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are designed to achieve their objectives and were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our President and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
The evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of American Eagles disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, management, including American Eagles principal executive and financial officers, concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Mr. Eardley is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). American Eagles internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Mr. Eardley, with the participation of the outside CPA, evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, Mr. Eardley used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Further, Mr. Eardley considered the lack of operations and revenue, the limited cash on hand, the limited transactions which occur on a monthly basis and the use of an outside CPA firm which reconciles all financial transactions prior to being delivered to the Companys auditors. Based on this evaluation, Mr. Eardley concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, American Eagles internal control over financial reporting was effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Mr. Eardleys report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Security and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only Mr. Eardleys report in this annual report.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The following table sets forth certain information as of March 28, 2012, with respect to the beneficial ownership of American Eagles Common Stock by the director of American Eagle and each person known by American Eagle to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of American Eagles outstanding shares of Common Stock. At March 28, 2012, there were 7,047,098 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding.
For purposes of this table, information as to the beneficial ownership of shares of common stock is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and includes general voting power and/or investment power with respect to securities. Except as otherwise indicated, all shares of American Eagles common stock are beneficially owned, and sole investment and voting power is held, by the person named. For purposes of this table, a person or group of persons is deemed to have beneficial ownership of any shares of common stock, which such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after the date hereof. The inclusion herein of such shares listed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership.

_________________
(1)
Kip Eardley is the sole shareholder, officer and director of Capital Builders, Inc. which owns 1,000,000 shares of Series E Preferred stock with such shares having a 10-to-1 voting preference where every one share of preferred stock is equivalent in votes to ten shares of common stock. As such, Capital Builders would have 59% of the voting control of the issued and outstanding stock when the 10,000,000 shares of voting are added to the existing 7,047,098 shares of issued and outstanding common stock. Mr. Eardley owns no shares of common stock.
Control by Existing Stockholders
Mr. Eardley, through Capital Builders, Inc., indirectly owns 1,000,000 shares of Series E Preferred stock with such shares having a 10-to-1 voting preference where every one share of preferred stock is equivalent in votes to ten shares of common stock and, as such, controls the majority of the voting rights of the issued and outstanding shares of the American Eagle common stock and preferred stock. As a result, Mr. Eardley, the person currently in control of American Eagle, will most likely continue to be in a position to elect at least a majority of the Board of Directors of American Eagle, to dissolve, merge or sell the assets of American Eagle, and generally, to direct the affairs of American Eagle.
Dividends
The Company has not declared any cash dividends with respect to American Eagles common stock, and does not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future. The future dividend policy of American Eagle cannot be ascertained with any certainty. There are no material restrictions limiting, or that are likely to limit, the Companys ability to pay dividends on American Eagles securities.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Transactions with Management and Others.
Mr. Eardley believes that all purchases from or transactions with affiliated parties were on terms and at prices substantially similar to those available from unaffiliated third parties.
For 2011 and 2010, the sole officer and director of the Company has provided office space at no cost to the Company.
Between August 2005 and September 2006, a shareholder of the Company advanced $50,000 to the Company. On October 23, 2006, the Company entered into a Debt Settlement Agreement with the shareholder whereby 100% of the debt was exchanged for 1,000,000 series E Preferred Shares. Each Series E Share has voting rights equal to 10 shares of common stock, is not convertible into any other class of stock of the Company and has no preference to dividends or liquidation rights.
Independence of Management
Except as set forth above, there were no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, during the Companys last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries was, or is to be, a party, in which the amount involved exceeded the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the Companys total assets at year-end for the last three completed fiscal years and in which any director, executive officer or any security holder who is known to the Company to own of record or beneficially more than five percent of any class of the Companys common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had an interest.
American Eagle does not consider its director to be independent given Mr. Eardleys role as an officer of the Company and shareholder.
Transactions with Promoters
There have been no transactions between the Company and promoters during the last fiscal year.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
1) Audit Fees - The aggregate fees incurred for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by American Eagles principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of American Eagles quarterly financial statements is approximately $4,500 and $5,000 for each of the years ending December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively.
2) Audit-Related Fees. $0 and $0.
3) Tax Fees. $0 and $0.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Board of Directors American Eagle Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Eagle Group, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from September 19, 2005 (date of reactivation) to December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). 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 Companys 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Eagle Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from September 19, 2005 (date of reactivation) to December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit, and has suffered recurring losses from operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2011 and 2010
Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization American Eagle Group, Inc. (the Company or American Eagle) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 3, 1986, under the name AOA Corporation. On November 12, 1991, the Company changed its name to American Eagle Group, Inc.
Reorganization, Development Stage Company The Company is in the development stage since it is not currently conducting any business, nor has it conducted any business since current management was appointed in the reactivation on September 19, 2005. Since that time, the Company has been investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of management, will provide a source of eventual profit. Such involvement may take many forms, including the acquisition of an existing business or the acquisition of assets to establish subsidiary businesses.
Going Concern The Companys financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenue for several years and the sole officer and director of the Company has provided capital to pay prior and current obligations. The Company requires additional capital to continue its limited operations. Furthermore, the Companys officer and director serves without compensation. The Company assumes that these arrangements and the availability of future capital sources will continue into the future, but no assurance thereof can be given. A change in these circumstances would have a material adverse effect on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in FASC 740-20, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will not be realized.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly-liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
The Company plans to recognize revenue when the following four conditions are present: (1) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, (2) the price is fixed or determinable, (3) delivery has occurred or services are rendered, and (4) collection is reasonably assured.
Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Income (Loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. The Company has no potentially dilutive securities, in 2011 and 2010. Accordingly, basic and dilutive loss per common share are the same.
Fair Value
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
Note 2: Income Taxes
Due to losses at December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no income tax liability. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had available unused operating loss carry forwards of approximately $58,685 and $48,392, respectively, which may be applied against future taxable income and which expire in various years through 2031.
The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the future earnings of the Company and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined at this time. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the loss carry forwards, the Company has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax effect of the loss carry forwards and, therefore, no deferred tax asset has been recognized for the loss carry forwards. The net deferred tax assets are approximately $19,950 and $16,453 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, with an offsetting valuation allowance of the same amount resulting in a change in the valuation allowance of approximately $3,497 during the year ended December 31, 2011.

The Company has no tax positions at December 31, 2011 and 2010, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the period ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized no interest and penalties. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2011 and 2010.
