Notes to Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

A.	Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

(1)

Organization - Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, or “us”) was organized October 21, 1999, under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company previously had limited operations and in accordance with SFAS No. 7 was considered a development stage company until July 2005. The Company was formed to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other business combination with a domestic or foreign private business. On April 25, 2005, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. On May 2, 2005, Tulvine Systems, Inc. merged with and changed its name to Chanticleer Holdings, Inc.

(2)

General - The financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. These financial statements have not been audited.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2006, which is included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

(3)

Investment Company - On June 1, 2005, the Company filed a notification on Form N54a with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (the “SEC”) indicating its election to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under this election, the Company has adopted corporate resolutions to operate as a closed-end management investment company as a BDC. The Company has been organized to provide investors with an opportunity to participate, with a modest amount in venture capital, in investments that are generally not available to the public and that typically require substantially larger financial commitments. In addition, the Company provides professional management and administration that might otherwise be unavailable to investors if they were to engage directly in venture capital investing. The Company will operate as a non-diversified company as that term is defined in Section 5(b)(2) of the 1940 Act and will at all times conduct its business so as to retain its status as a BDC. The Company may not change the nature of its business so as to cease to be, or withdraw its election as, a BDC without the approval of the holders of a majority of its outstanding voting stock as defined under the 1940 Act.

As a BDC, the Company is required to invest at least 70% of its total assets in qualifying assets, which generally are securities of private companies or securities of public companies whose securities are not eligible for purchase on margin (which includes many companies with thinly traded securities that are quoted in the pink sheets or the NASD Electronic Quotation Service.) The Company may also offer to provide managerial assistance to these portfolio companies. Qualifying assets may also include:

Cash,

Cash equivalents,

U.S. Government securities, or

High-quality debt investments maturing in one year or less from the date of investment.

An eligible portfolio company generally is a United States company that is not an investment company and that:

Does not have a class of securities registered on an exchange or included in the Federal Reserve Board’s over-the-counter margin list;

Is actively controlled by a BDC and has an affiliate of a BDC on its board of directors; or

Meets such other criteria as may be established by the SEC.

The Company may invest a portion of the remaining 30% of its total assets in debt and/or equity securities of companies that may be larger or more stabilized than target portfolio companies.

BDC’s are required to implement certain accounting provisions that are different from those to which other reporting companies are required to comply. These requirements may result in presentation of financial information in a manner that is more or less favorable than the manner permitted by other reporting companies. In connection with the implementation of accounting changes to comply with the required reporting of financial information, the Company must also comply with SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”).

Prior to June 1, 2005, the date the Company began operating as a BDC, the Company’s only operations included ownership of marketable investment securities. The Company followed Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“FAS 115”) for its marketable investment securities. The Company classified its marketable investment securities as trading securities, for which FAS 115 provides that unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities shall be included in earnings. Since this method of accounting for investments is the same as the valuation method required when operating as a BDC, there is no cumulative effect recognition in the accompanying financial statements upon becoming an investment company. The Company has prepared its financial statements as if it had been a BDC from inception.

BDC’s, as governed under the 1940 Act may not avail themselves of any of the provisions of Regulation S-B, including any of the streamlined reporting permitted thereunder.

(4)

Investments in Affiliates and Non-Affiliates - Pursuant to the requirements of the 1940 Act, our Board of Directors is responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value of our securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available. In making its determination, the Board of Directors will consider valuation appraisals provided by an independent valuation service provider, when considered necessary. Equity securities in public companies that carry certain restrictions on resale are generally valued at a discount from the market value of the securities as quoted on a national securities exchange or by a national securities association.

The Board of Directors bases its determination upon, among other things, applicable quantitative and qualitative factors. These factors may include, but are not limited to, type of securities, nature of business, marketability, market price of unrestricted securities of the same issue (if any), comparative valuation of securities of publicly-traded companies in the same or similar industries, current financial conditions and operating results, sales and earnings growth, operating revenues, competitive conditions and current and prospective conditions in the overall stock market.

Without a readily available market value, the value of our portfolio of equity securities may differ significantly from the values that would be placed on the portfolio if a ready market existed for such equity securities.

The Company is currently concentrating its efforts in packaging business investments for private equity groups. If completed, the Company expects to receive compensation through limited cost equity participation and/or cash management fees.

On November 21, 2006, the Company entered into an option agreement with Hooters of America, Inc. to purchase the right to open and operate Hooters restaurants in the Republic of South Africa. Negotiations are underway regarding a proposed development plan.

The Company received 342,814 shares of SYZYGY Entertainment, Ltd. (SYZG) in exchange for consulting and other services rendered or to be rendered from April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008. SYZG has had very limited trading activity to date, accordingly, the $5.00 closing price has been reduced to $1.50 for purposes of valuing the services. The investment value of $514,221 is being amortized to management income over the twelve month period and as of June 30, 2007, $385,666 is included in deferred revenue and $128,555 has been recognized as management income. The Company’s CEO, Mike Pruitt, also acts as CEO and director for SYZG.

VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS

As required by the SEC's Accounting Series Release ("ASR") 118, the investment committee of the Company is required to assign a fair value to all investments. To comply with Section 2(a) (41) and Rule 2a-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), it is incumbent upon the Board of Directors to satisfy themselves that all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which market quotations are not readily available have been considered and to determine the method of arriving at the fair value of each such security. To the extent considered necessary, the Board of Directors may appoint persons to assist them in the determination of such value and to make the actual calculations pursuant to the Board of Directors’ direction. The Board of Directors must also, consistent with this responsibility, continuously review the appropriateness of the method used in valuing each issue of security in the Company's portfolio. The Directors must recognize their responsibilities in this matter and whenever technical assistance is requested from individuals who are not Directors, the findings of such individuals must be carefully reviewed by the Directors in order to satisfy themselves that the resulting valuations are fair.

No single standard for determining "fair value in good faith" can be established, since fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle, the current "fair value" of an issue of securities being valued by the Board of Directors would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale. Methods that use this principle may, for example, be based on a multiple of earnings, or a discount from market of a similar freely traded security, or yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods. Some of the general factors that the Board of Directors should consider in determining a valuation method for an individual issue of securities include: 1) the fundamental analytical data relating to the investment, 2) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the securities, and 3) an evaluation of the forces which influence the market in which these securities are purchased and sold. Among the more specific factors which are to be considered are: type of security, financial statements, cost at date of purchase, size of holding, discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at time of purchase, special reports prepared by analysts, information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security, existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the securities, price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies and other relevant matters.

The Board of Directors has arrived at the following valuation method for its investments. Where there is not a readily available source for determining the market value of any investment, both because the investment is not publicly traded or is thinly traded and in absence of a recent appraisal, the value of the investment shall be based on the following criteria:

Total amount of the Company's actual investment. This amount shall include all loans, purchase price of securities and fair value of securities given at the time of exchange.

Total revenues for the preceding twelve months.

Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation.

Estimate of likely sale price of investment.

Net assets of investment.

Likelihood of investment generating positive returns (going concern).

The estimated value of each investment shall be determined as follows:

Where no or limited revenues or earnings are present, then the value shall be the greater of the investments: a) net assets, b) estimated sales price, or c) total amount of actual investment.

Where revenues and/or earnings are present, then the value shall be the greater of one-times (1x) revenues or three-times (3x) earnings, plus the greater of the net assets of the investment or the total amount of the actual investment.

Under both scenarios, the value of the investment shall be adjusted down if there is a reasonable expectation that the Company will not be able to recoup the investment or if there is reasonable doubt about the investment’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Utilizing the foregoing method, the Company has valued its investments as follows:

NON-AFFILIATE INVESTMENTS

NON-INCOME PRODUCING INVESTMENTS

The Company’s investments in Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (AMEX: TLF) and Special Projects Group (Pink Sheets: SPLJ) are quoted as indicated. The Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued each of these investments based on its closing price at the end of June 2007.

The Company made an investment in LFM Management, LLC, dba 1^st Choice Mortgage in March 2006. This is a privately held consumer brokerage business which began operation at the end of March 2006. The Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued this investment at its cost of $250,000 at June 30, 2007.

The Company made an investment in EE Investors, LLC whose sole asset is a 16.2% interest in Bouncing Brain Production, LLC. This is a privately held inventor promotion company. Bouncing Brain has selected a number of inventions and expects results from their promotion to begin in 2007. The Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued this investment at its cost of $250,000 at June 30, 2007.

LOAN INVESTMENTS

The Company invested $100,000 in notes and accounts receivable of Lifestyle Innovations, Inc. with a face value of approximately $1,200,000 in June 2006. These obligations are expected to ultimately be converted into common stock. The Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued this investment at its cost of $100,000 at June 30, 2007.

The Company made a loan to Special Projects Group in July 2006 and the Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued this investment at its cost of $50,000 at June 30, 2007. The loan was repaid in July 2007.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTY INVESTMENTS

The Company invested $128,216 for a 37.5% working interest in two oil and gas wells located in Washington County, Oklahoma. The Investment Committee and the Board of Directors valued these two properties at $225,000 on June 30, 2007, based on an estimate of recoverable reserves provided by the operator of the wells. The Company has been delayed in receiving revenues from the properties due to flooding in the area where the wells are located. With the clean-up required and minor repairs, it is expected the properties should be producing by the beginning of the fourth quarter.

AFFILIATE INVESTMENT

UNCONTROLLED

The Company received an investment in SYZYGY Entertainment, Ltd. in exchange for services which are being performed between April 1, 2007 and March 31, 2008. At June 30, 2007, SYZG had experienced very limited trading, therefore, the board of directors discounted the $5.00 closing price to $1.50 per share to determine the value of $514,221.

CONTROLLED

The Company formed Chanticleer Investors LLC (“CI LLC”) at the end of March 2006. CI LLC’s only asset is a 6%, convertible, $5,000,000 loan to Hooters of America, Inc. Interest only is payable quarterly and accrued interest and principal is due May 24, 2009. The Company owns 23% of CI LLC and receives a management fee equal to 2% of the interest being paid on the loan. The remaining 4% of the interest is distributed to the investors, including the Company, quarterly. The investment is valued by the Investment Committee and the Board of Directors at its cost of $1,150,000 at June 30, 2007.

C. Note Payable

The Company had a one-year line-of-credit with a bank in the amount of $250,000 which matured on June 21, 2007. The loan was guaranteed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and was collateralized by all inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general intangibles of the Company. The 8.25% loan was repaid in May 2007.

D. Composition of Net Assets (Stockholders’ Equity)

The Company has 200,000,000 shares of its $0.0001 par value common stock authorized and 8,046,604 shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2007. There are no warrants or options outstanding.

On April 12, 2007, the Company filed an Offering Circular under Regulation E promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 to raise up to $5,000,000 by selling between 4,000,000 and 7,142,857 shares of its common stock at prices ranging between $.70 and $1.25 per share. As of May 9, 2007, the Company had sold 357,143 shares for $250,000 pursuant to the offering.

On May 30, 2007, the Company received a letter from the SEC with questions and requests for additional information and disclosure regarding its Form 1-E. Accordingly, the Company has suspended additional sales pursuant to this Form 1-E until the questions have been resolved and additional information and disclosure is provided. The Company expects to file an amended Form 1-E upon completion of this process.

E. Related Party Transactions

On July 31, 2006, the Company formed Chanticleer Investors II, LLC (“Investors II”). Investors II began raising funds in January 2007 for the purpose of investing in publicly traded value securities. The Company has advanced $15,444, which is included in accounts receivable, to Investors II for legal expenses.

In January 2007, the Company formed Chanticleer Advisors, LLC (“Advisors”) as a wholly-owned subsidiary to manage Investors II, as well as other designated projects. Pursuant to Regulation S-X Rule 6, Advisors will not be consolidated with the Company.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company sold its investment in two securities to Investors II for $21,775, which approximated market value on the transaction dates. The Company realized a profit of $127 on the transactions.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that may be incorrect, and we cannot assure you that the projections included in these forward-looking statements will come to pass. Our actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.

We registered our common stock on a Form 10-SB registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 12(g) thereof. We filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission periodic and episodic reports under Rule 13(a) of the Exchange Act, including quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual reports on Form 10-KSB until we became a BDC when we began filing reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K.

On June 1, 2005, we filed a notification on Form N54a with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (the “SEC”) indicating our election to be regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under this election, we have adopted corporate resolutions to operate as a closed-end management investment company as a BDC. We have been organized to provide investors with an opportunity to participate, with a modest amount in venture capital, in investments that are generally not available to the public and that typically require substantially larger financial commitments. In addition, we provide professional management and administration that might otherwise be unavailable to investors if they were to engage directly in venture capital investing. We operate as a non-diversified company as that term is defined in Section 5(b)(2) of the 1940 Act and will at all times conduct our business so as to retain our status as a BDC. We may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or withdraw our election as, a BDC without the approval of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting stock as defined under the 1940 Act.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, complex, or subjective judgments. Our most critical accounting policy relates to the valuation of our investments.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), our Board of Directors is responsible for determining in good faith the fair value of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Although the securities of our portfolio companies may be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets, our Board of Directors is required to determine the fair value of such securities if the validity of the market quotations appears to be questionable, or if the number of quotations is such as to indicate that there is a thin or illiquid market in the security.

We determine fair value to be the amount for which an investment could be exchanged in an orderly disposition over a reasonable period of time between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Our valuation policy considers the fact that no ready market may exist for substantially all of the securities in which we invest. Our investment policy is intended to provide a consistent basis for determining the fair value of the portfolio. We record unrealized depreciation on investments when we believe that an investment has become impaired, including where realization of an equity security is doubtful. We record unrealized appreciation if we believe that the underlying portfolio company has appreciated in value and, therefore, our equity security has also appreciated in value. The value of investments in publicly traded securities is determined using quoted market prices discounted for restriction on resale, if any.

Our equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued using industry valuation benchmarks, and then the values could be assigned a discount reflecting the illiquid nature of the investment, as well as our minority, non-control position. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering, or subsequent equity sale occurs, the pricing indicated by the external event is used to corroborate our valuation. The determined values are generally discounted to account for restrictions on resale and minority ownership positions.

The value of our equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based on the closing public market price. Securities that carry certain restrictions on sale are typically valued at a discount from the public market value for the security.

Financial Condition

Our net assets were $2,400,009 and $2,413,389 at June 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, respectively. Net asset value per share was $.2983 at June 30, 2007, and $0.3139 at December 31, 2006.

We are currently concentrating our efforts in packaging business investments for private equity groups. If completed, we expect to receive compensation through limited cost equity participation and/or cash management fees.

On November 21, 2006, we entered into an option agreement with Hooters of America, Inc. to purchase the right to open and operate Hooters restaurants in the Republic of South Africa. Negotiations are underway regarding a proposed development plan.

On April 12, 2007, we filed an Offering Circular under Regulation E promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 to raise up to $5,000,000 by selling between 4,000,000 and 7,142,857 shares of our common stock at prices ranging between $.70 and $1.25 per share. As of May 9, 2007, we had sold 357,143 shares for $250,000 pursuant to the offering.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

Net decrease in net assets from operations amounted to a decrease of $39,929 in 2007 as compared to a decrease of $110,494 in 2006.

Revenues increased from $26,160 in 2006 to $166,569 in 2007. The increase in 2007 is composed of the increase in income from affiliate investments of $142,958 reduced by a decline in other net interest and dividend income of $2,549. The 2007 income from affiliated investments includes $128,555 for consulting services rendered to SYZG. The investment in Chanticleer Investors LLC was not fully funded until the second quarter of 2006.

Expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2007, were $205,870 as compared to $140,735 in the year earlier period. The increase in expenses is mainly the result of an increase in salaries and wages of $16,554, an increase in professional fees of $18,022, an increase of $12,028 in travel and entertainment expenses and an increase in franchise taxes of $15,775. The increase in salaries and wages is consistent with the slightly larger staff and salary increases for the 2007 period as compared to 2006. The increase in professional services is primarily due to increase investment advisory services and an increase in audit costs due primarily to the higher number of investments. Travel and entertainment increased primarily due to increased travel costs associated with review of existing and potential investments. Franchise taxes were recorded in the third quarter in 2006.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses consisted of a realized gain of $9,193 and an unrealized depreciation of investments of $9,821 for a net loss of $628 in 2007 as compared to a realized gain of $32,835 and a unrealized depreciation of $28,754, for a net gain of $4,081 in 2006.

The above factors resulted in a net decrease in net assets from operations per share of $.0051 in 2007 as compared to a net decrease in net assets from operations per share of $.0144 in 2006.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

Net decrease in net assets from operations amounted to a decrease of $263,380 in 2007 as compared to a decrease of $69,596 in 2006.

Revenues increased from $44,250 in 2006 to $204,721 in 2007. The increase in 2007 is composed of the increase in income from affiliate investments of $179,458 reduced by a decline in other net interest and dividend income of $18,987. The 2007 income from affiliated investments includes $128,555 for consulting services rendered to SYZG. The investment in Chanticleer Investors LLC was not fully funded until the second quarter of 2006.

Expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2007, were $364,456 as compared to $258,006 in the year earlier period. The increase in expenses is mainly the result of an increase in salaries and wages of $24,520, an increase in professional fees of $58,404 and an increase of $22,416 in travel and entertainment expenses. The increase in salaries and wages is consistent with the slightly larger staff and salary increases for the 2007 period as compared to 2006. The increase in professional services is primarily due to increase investment advisory services and an increase in audit costs due primarily to the higher number of investments. Travel and entertainment increased primarily due to increased travel costs associated with review of existing and potential investments.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses consisted of a realized gain of $19,105 and an unrealized depreciation of investments of $122,750 for a net loss of $103,645 in 2007 as compared to a realized gain of $38,699 and a unrealized appreciation of $105,461, for a net gain of $144,160 in 2006.

The above factors resulted in a net decrease in net assets from operations per share of $.0338 in 2007 as compared to a net decrease in net assets from operations per share of $.0091 in 2006.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. We are primarily exposed to equity price risk. Equity price risk arises from exposure to securities that represent an ownership interest in our portfolio companies. The value of our equity securities and our other investments are based on quoted market prices or our Board of Directors’ good faith determination of their fair value (which is based, in part, on quoted market prices). Market prices of common equity securities, in general, are subject to fluctuations, which could cause the amount to be realized upon sale or exercise of the instruments to differ significantly from the current reported value. The fluctuations may result from perceived changes in the underlying economic characteristics of our portfolio companies, the relative price of alternative investments, general market conditions and supply and demand imbalances for a particular security.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007, and, based on its evaluation, our principal executive officer has concluded that these controls and procedures are effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation described above, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
