NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The consolidated interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these consolidated interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009 and notes thereto included in the Company’s 10-K filed on May 12, 2010. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.
Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.
Organization
On September 23, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to Bollente Companies Inc.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.
Stock-based compensation
The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 505 and 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards. This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

BOLLENTE COMPANIES INC.
(FORMERLY ALCANTARA BRANDS CORPORATION)
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Stock-based compensation (Continued)
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached in FASB ASC 505-10. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-10.
Earnings per share
The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for the earnings per share. Basic earning per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earning per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bollente Companies Inc., formerly Alcantara Brands Corporation (Nevada Corporation), and its wholly-owned subsidiary Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (Nevada Corporation). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Bollente Companies Inc. (Nevada Corporation) and Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (Nevada Corporation) will be collectively referred herein to as the “Company”.
Recent pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06 (ASU 2010-06), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This amendment to Topic 820 has improved disclosures about fair value measurements on the basis of input received from the users of financial statements. This is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-06 to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted above, the Company is in the development stage and, accordingly, has not yet generated revenues from operations. Since its inception, the Company has been engaged substantially in financing activities and developing its business plan and incurring start up costs and expenses. As a result, the Company incurred accumulated net losses from Inception (March 7, 2008) through the period ended September 30, 2010 of ($1,244,485). In addition, the Company’s development activities since inception have been financially sustained through debt and equity financing.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
NOTE 3 – DUE FROM RELATED PARTY
On March 12, 2010, the Company agreed to purchase 5.625 kilos of gold for an unrelated third party in exchange for cash of $40,000 and 866,667 shares of common stock valued at $260,000 based on the fair value of the common stock.

During May 2010, the Company received a repayment of $40,000 from FMC. As of September 30, 2010, the balance is $0.
NOTE 4 – DEFERRED REVENUE

As of April 28, 2010, the Company settled with the unrelated third party and agreed to return the $40,000 in cash no later than April 30, 2010.

These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in particular, the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A and those discussed in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

References in the following discussion and throughout this quarterly report to “we”, “our”, “us”, “Bollente”, “the Company”, and similar terms refer to Bollente Companies Inc. unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK
Bollente Companies Inc., formerly Alcantara Brands Corporation, is a development stage company, formed to engage in the business of producing and importing resources from Peru, which include a line of flavorings, seasonings, and condiments, in addition to wood products and other Peruvian exports.
Since our inception on March 7, 2008 through September 30, 2010, we have not generated any revenues and have incurred a net loss of $1,244,485. We believe that our ability to commence purchasing and importing products from Peru will generate revenues sufficient to support the limited costs associated with our initial ongoing operations for the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that the actual expenses incurred will not materially exceed our estimates or that cash flows from product imports will be adequate to maintain our business. As a result, our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in the independent auditors’ report to the financial statements.
On January 25, 2010, we incorporated our wholly-owned subsidiary, Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (“WLMP”) in the state of Nevada. WLMP was formed for the manufacture, distribution and marketing of lumber from Peru.
In September 2010, the Board of Directors and the majority of stockholders approved a one-for-fifty reverse split of our outstanding shares of common stock on October 8, 2010. The par value of our common stock was maintained at the pre-split amount of $0.001. The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, including all share and per share data, have been restated as if the stock splits had occurred as of the earliest period presented. On October 22, 2010, the reverse stock split went effective, making the total number of outstanding shares equal to 374,729.
Going Concern
The financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of the Company as a going concern. The Company may not have a sufficient amount of cash required to pay all of the costs associated with operating and marketing of its products. Management intends to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue existence.
Results of Operations
Revenues
Since our inception on March 7, 2008 through September 30, 2010, we have not generated any revenues.
12
Expenses
Operating expenses totaled $206,957 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $11,290 in the prior year. In the three month period ended September 30, 2010, our expenses primarily consisted of professional fees of $176,335. Operating expenses totaled $830,027 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $256,462 in the prior year. In the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our expenses primarily consisted of professional fees of $751,007.
Professional fees increased $182,151 from the three months ended September 30, 2009 to the three months ended September 30, 2010. This increase was due to an increase in amortization of stock-based consulting fees of $184,167, decrease in accounting fees of $500, decrease in legal fees of $2,010 and increase transfer agent fees of $495. The increase was primarily due to an increase in amortization of the stock based compensation. Additionally, accounting fees increased due to the re-audit of 2008 and a change in auditors resulted in a slightly higher cost for our quarterly reviews and annual audits. Professional fees increased $721,734 from the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This increase was due to an increase in amortization of stock-based consulting fees of $391,667, increase in accounting fees of $7,500, increase in legal fees of $325,886 and decrease of transfer agent fees of $819. The legal fees increased significantly due to the issuance of 20,000 warrants valued at $308,176.
General and administrative fees increased $15,912 from the three months ended September 30, 2009 to the three months ended September 30, 2010. This increase was primarily attributed to an increase in bad debt expense of $14,000 and an increase rent due to a new short term office space lease. General and administrative fees increased $19,336 from the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This increase was primarily attributed to an increase in bad debt expense of $14,000 and an increase in rent.

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through the issuance of stock, by borrowings, and through sales-generated revenue. In the future, we anticipate we will be able to provide the necessary liquidity we need by the revenues generated from the sales of our products.
13
As of September 30, 2010, our cash balance was $53.
In May 2010, we received $12,000 from a stockholder of the Company as part of a draw on a line of credit we have with the stockholder. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we received an additional $4,000 from the line of credit. Pursuant to the line of credit we have a balloon payment of principal and interest due on December 1, 2011 and bears interest at 5% per annum.
Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock and debt financing. As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of product sales. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the future we need to generate sufficient revenues from product sales in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional loans. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our business plan.
We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continually develop our line of products, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. See Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
This item in not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods. As of the end of the period covered by this report, Robertson J. Orr, our President and Principal Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on the evaluation, which disclosed no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, Mr. Orr, our President and Principal Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting him to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II--OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our significant business risks are described in Item 1A to Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 to which reference is made herein.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Name Change and Reverse Stock Split
On September 23, 2010, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.385 and 78.390 with the Nevada Secretary of State changing its name from Alcantara Brands Corporation to Bollente Companies Inc.

The name change and reverse split was announced on the OTCBB Daily List on October 22, 2010 and took effect at the open of business on October 22, 2010.
