WORLDWIDE STRATEGIES INCORPORATED
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

(1)           Organization and Basis of Presentation

Worldwide Strategies Incorporated (the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 6, 1998.  On March 1, 2005, Worldwide Business Solutions Incorporated (“WBSI”) was incorporated in the State of Colorado.  On July 8, 2005, the Company acquired all the shares of WBSI for 76.8% of the Company’s outstanding stock.  The acquisition of WBSI has been accounted for as a recapitalization of WBSI.  Therefore the historical information prior to the date of recapitalization is the financial information of WBSI.

The Company is in the development stage in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.”  As of January 31, 2009, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to financial planning, raising capital and developing markets.

Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited.  The unaudited interim financial information presented herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies in its audited financial statements for the period ended July 31, 2008, included in its annual report on Form 10-K, and should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of operating results for the interim period presented have been made.  The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company experienced net losses of $210,325, $54,772, and $6,265,174 for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009 and for the period from March 1, 2005 (inception) through January 31, 2009, respectively.  These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient sales volume to cover its operating expenses and to raise sufficient capital to meet its payment obligations.  Historically, management has been able to raise additional capital.  During the quarter ended January 31, 2009, the Company obtained an additional $25,000 as partial payment of the deposit due under the February 2008 NewMarket Technology, Inc. (“NMKT”) letter of intent and $8,000 in payment for preferred stock.  During the quarter, the Company also restructured its debts, eliminating a majority of the Company’s liabilities.

The 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 be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.”  SFAS No. 163 prescribes accounting for insures of financial obligations, bringing consistency to recognizing and recording premiums and to loss recognition.  SFAS No. 163 also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts.  Except for some disclosures, SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS No. 163 will not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

WORLDWIDE STRATEGIES INCORPORATED
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.”  SFAS No. 162 makes the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles explicitly and directly applicable to preparers of financial statements, a step that recognizes preparers’ responsibilities for selecting the accounting principles for their financial statements.  The effective date of SFAS No. 162 is 60 days following the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s related amendments to remove the GAAP hierarchy from auditing standards, where it has resided for some time.  The adoption of SFAS No. 162 will not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.”  SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities.  These enhanced disclosures will discuss (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

(2)           Accrued compensation

The Company did not compensate its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO) or Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) for services rendered during the 2007 fiscal year, the 2008 fiscal year or the first quarter of 2009 fiscal year.  The unpaid compensation was accrued and charged to expense for these periods.  Effective January 31, 2009, accrued compensation totaling $642,537 at October 31, 2008, was forgiven and the debt was taken off the Company records.  No salary was accrued for the quarter ended January 31, 2009.

(3)           Related party transactions

Convertible notes payable

Outstanding notes, including accrued interest which was capitalized, totaling $322,981 were converted into preferred stock during the period ended January 31, 2009.  Interest expense for the related party notes payable for the six and three months ended January 31, 2009, the six and three months ended January 31, 2008, and for the period from March 1, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2009 was $7,107, $0, $11,716, $6,197 and $50,152, respectively.

(4)           Notes payable

Outstanding notes, including accrued interest which was capitalized, totaling $329,294 were converted into preferred stock during the period ended January 31, 2009.  Interest expense for these notes payable for the six and three months ended January 31, 2009, the six and three months ended January 31, 2008, and for the period from March 1, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2009 was $7,121, $0, $10,469, $5,379 and $49,745, respectively.

(5)           Shareholders’ Deficit

Preferred stock

The Company is authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock.  The Company’s Board of Directors may divide and issue the preferred shares in series.  Each Series, when issued, shall be designated to distinguish them from the shares of all other series.  The relative rights and preferences of these series include preference of dividends, redemption terms and conditions, amount payable upon shares of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, terms and condition of conversion as well as voting powers.

(Unaudited)

Effective December 15, 2008, the Company established a series of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock to be known as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” (“Series A”).  The shares of Series A have a par value of $0.001 per share.  Shares of Series A may be redeemed, for $0.50 per share, at the Company’s option.  Each share of Series A may be converted into 6.25 shares of common stock, at the option of the holder.

Effective January 31, 2009, the Company issued 1,304,552 preferred shares at $0.50 in full settlement of notes payable and accrued interest in the amount of $652,274.  An additional 16,000 shares were issued for $8,000 in cash.

Common stock

In December 2008, the Company issued a total of 625,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for uncompensated services provided to the Company by one employee, two officers, five directors and four consultants.  The shares were valued at $0.03 per share based on the fair value of the shares in the month they were issued.  This amount ($18,750) is reflected in the accompanying financial statements as stock based compensation.

In September 2008, the Company issued a total of 18,023 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for $2,470 in interest on five convertible notes payable.  The shares were valued based on the fair value of the shares in the month interest was accrued.

Capital contribution

During the six months ended January 31, 2009, the CEO and the president of Centric paid office expenses totaling $335 and $60, respectively, on behalf of the Company.

Stock Options and Warrants

In December 2008, the Company granted two officers, five directors, one employee and four consultants options to purchase an aggregate of 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.015 per share, in exchange for unpaid services expenses.  All 600,000 options were fully vested on the grant date.  The quoted market price of the stock was $0.02 per share on the grant date.  The Company valued the options at $0.02 per share, or $12,000.  The intrinsic value of these options was $3,000.  This amount is reflected in the accompanying financial statements as stock based compensation.  The fair value of the options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

(6)           Income Taxes

The Company records its income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  The Company incurred net operating losses during all periods presented resulting in a deferred tax asset, which was fully allowed for; therefore, the net benefits and expense resulted in $0 income taxes.

(7)           Letters of Intent

NewMarket Technology, Inc.

In February 2008, the Company entered into a letter of intent with NMKT.  Pursuant to the letter of intent, NMKT will acquire a 51% in the Company in exchange for (i) the assumption of all of the Company’s outstanding debts and (ii) the payment of $100,000.  NMKT’s ownership interest will be protected from dilution for three years.  The transaction is subject to the execution of a mutually satisfactory definitive stock purchase agreement and the completion of due diligence.  Withdrawal from the transaction by either party will subject the withdrawing party to a claim for the legal and due diligence expenses of the other party, not to exceed $100,000.

In the six month period ending January 31, 2009 and during the prior fiscal year, the Company received $25,000 and $50,000, respectively, from NMKT as partial payment of item (ii) in the letter of intent.  Both parties are engaged in the execution of a mutually satisfactory definitive stock purchase agreement and the completion of due diligence.

(8)           Subsequent Events

In March 2009, the Company entered into a second letter of intent with NMKT.  Pursuant to the second letter of intent, the Company will acquire a majority interest in NMKT’s Latin America subsidiary in exchange for the Company’s preferred non-convertible shares sufficient to ensure a majority interest position of the Company will be owned by NMKT.  The transaction is subject to the execution of a mutually satisfactory definitive stock exchange agreement and the completion of due diligence.  The parties have agreed that the prior letter of intent entered in February 2008 will be replaced by the new letter of intent.

In April 2009, the Company issued three promissory notes with a face value of $28,440 in exchange for an equivalent amount of cash.  One of the notes was issued to the CEO for $10,000.  All three notes carry interest at 9% and are due June 30, 2009.  The money raised through issuance of these notes has been and will be used for working capital purposes.

Item 2.         Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended July 31, 2008 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The discussion of results, causes and trends should not be construed to imply any conclusion that such results or trends will necessarily continue in the future.

Overview

Worldwide Strategies Incorporated (“we”, “us”, or “our”) was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 6, 1998 as Boyd Energy Corporation for the purpose of developing a mechanical lifting device that would enhance existing stripper well production.  We were unable to raise sufficient capital to carry out this business and focused instead on leasing properties and exploring for oil and gas.  We changed our name to Barnett Energy Corporation on July 17, 2001.

On July 8, 2005, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement with Worldwide Business Solutions Incorporated, a Colorado corporation (“WBSI”), we acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of WBSI, in exchange for 2,573,335 shares of our common stock.  As a result of this share exchange, shareholders of WBSI as a group owned approximately 76.8% of the shares then outstanding, and WBSI became our wholly-owned subsidiary.  We changed our name to Worldwide Strategies Incorporated as of June 14, 2005.

For accounting purposes, the acquisition of WBSI was accounted for as a recapitalization of WBSI.  Since we had only minimal assets and no operations, the recapitalization has been accounted for as the sale of 778,539 shares of WBSI common stock for our net liabilities at the time of the transaction.  Therefore, the historical financial information prior to the date of the recapitalization is the financial information of WBSI.

WBSI was incorporated on March 1, 2005 to provide Business Process Outsourcing (“BPO”) services.  WBSI intended to focus initially on providing call center services, with the option to expand to providing other outsourced services.  WBSI has not successfully implemented its business plan and is now dormant.

WBSI incorporated a subsidiary, Worldwide Business Solutions Limited, in the United Kingdom under the Companies Acts 1985 and 1989, on May 31, 2005.  This U.K. subsidiary was formed for the purpose of supporting sales and marketing efforts in English-speaking countries.  While the subsidiary a temporary office and bank accounts, it never had and does not have any employees.  We intended to utilize this subsidiary in connection with WBSI’s business; however, this subsidiary is now dormant.

On July 31, 2007, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Centric Rx, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Centric”) in exchange for 2,250,000 post-reverse-split shares of our common stock.  We filed Articles of Exchange Pursuant to NRS 92A.200 effective July 31, 2007.  Centric is now our wholly-owned subsidiary.  Centric intended to operate as a health services and pharmacy solution provider; however, Centric has not successfully implemented its business plan and is now dormant.

Effective July 31, 2007, we filed a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209, which decreased the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 33,333,333 and reduced the number of common shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to filing from 17,768,607 to 5,923,106.

Plan of Operation

On February 14, 2008, we entered into a letter of intent with NewMarket Technology, Inc. (“NMKT”).  It is proposed that NMKT will acquire a 51% interest in our Company in exchange for (i) the assumption of all of our outstanding debts and (ii) the payment of $100,000.  NMKT’s ownership interest would be protected from dilution for three years.  If we are able to complete the transaction with NMKT, a change of control will occur and a new plan of operation will be pursued by the new officers and directors of our Company.  To date, we have received $75,000 from NMKT as part of the $100,000 non-refundable deposit NMKT agreed to pay in the letter of intent.  
 
 
10

 
We are not obligated to return any portion of the $75,000 we have received, even if we do not complete the transaction with NMKT.

On March 25, 2009, we entered into a second letter of intent with NMKT that clarifies the intended transaction and replaces the first letter of intent.  This letter identifies NewMarket Latin America, Inc. (“NLAI”), an entity that is majority owned by NMKT, as a target for acquisition.  The letter indicates that we will exchange a majority interest in our Company for the majority interest of NLAI owned by NMKT.  We hope to conclude the acquisition of NLAI as soon as possible.

In April 2009, we entered into negotiations to obtain services from a consulting and investment-banking firm.  We will receive advisory services on capital structure and fund raising, mergers and acquisitions, stock market requirements and capital developments.

If we do not complete the transaction with NMKT, we will continue to pursue debt and/or equity financing to continue operations.  Failure to obtain additional financing could result in the cessation of our business.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to complete any additional financings successfully.

We may attempt to market the Company as a “shell company” as we believe that its status as a reporting company whose stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board has value.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in this effort.

Recent Financing Activity

During the quarter ended January 31, 2009, we restructured our debts to drastically reduce our outstanding liabilities.  Effective December 15, 2008, we designated 5,000,000 shares of our authorized preferred stock as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” (“Series A”).  Among other things, each Series A share can be converted into 6.25 common shares and has the right to a vote equal to 6.25 common shares on all matters to be voted upon by common stockholders.

As part of our restructuring effort, in December 2008, we offered all of our convertible note holders and various other debt holders an exchange of Series A shares for outstanding debts and any accrued interest held by them at $0.50 per Series A share.  Effective January 31, 2009, we converted $652,275 of debt into Series A shares at $0.50 per share.  We issued 1,304,552 Series A shares in exchange for the release of the debt.  We also sold 16,000 Series A shares to three individuals in December 2009, generating $8,000 to fund ongoing operations.

Effective January 31, 2009, our CEO and CFO forgave $642,537 of accrued and unpaid salaries.  We stopped accruing CEO and CFO salaries as of October 31, 2008, and the CEO and CFO have agreed to forego any salary until we complete an acquisition of an operating business or begin generating revenue.  The result of our restructuring effort was to reduce our total liabilities from $1,244,056 at July 31, 2008 to $68,473 as of January 31, 2009.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these consolidated condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the valuation of accounts receivable and inventories, the impairment of long-lived assets, any potential losses from pending litigation and deferred tax assets or liabilities.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

11

Development Stage.  We are in the development stage in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.”  As of January 31, 2009, we had devoted substantially all of our efforts to financial planning, raising capital and developing markets.

Stock-based Compensation.  We account for compensation expense for our stock-based employee compensation plans using the fair value method prescribed in SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), which requires us to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the awards.  The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes method.  We account for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R and EITF Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.”

Loss per Common Share.  We report net loss per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted loss per share.  Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents.  Diluted net loss per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents.  As of January 31, 2009, there were 6,724,695 and 5,033,364 common stock options and warrants outstanding, respectively, which were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share-diluted because they were antidilutive.

Results of Operations

Six and Three Months Ended January 31, 2009 and 2008.  Salaries, benefits and payroll taxes totaled $61,335 and $0 for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, a decrease of $70,181 and $65,802 from prior year totals of $131,516 and $65,802 for the respective periods.  During our second fiscal quarter, we did not accrue any salaries for our CEO and CFO since they have agreed not to take any salary until we acquire an operating business or otherwise generate sales revenue.

Stock-based compensation totaled $30,750 and 30,750 for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, an increase of $10,150 and $10,500 over the same periods in the prior year.  The current year’s charge represents stock-based compensation expense for shares issued in payment for services of officers, employees and contractors.

Professional and consulting fees totaled $36,819 and $13,390 for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, as compared to $51,512 and $12,905 during the prior year.  We have made efforts to reduce our spending on professionals and consultants in light of our scarce funds.

Travel expenses totaled $2,471 and $480 during the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, as compared to the totals of $7,773 and $2,668 for the respective periods in the prior year.  The decrease is due to a reduction in staff and a significant reduction in international travel.

Contract labor expenses totaled $37,500 and $0 during the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, decreases of $37,500 and $37,500 when compared to the totals of $75,000 and $37,500 for the same periods in the prior year.  The decrease is due to the decision of our CEO and CFO to forego compensation.

Insurance expenses totaled $19,693 and $7,218 during the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, as compared to the prior year totals $24,492 and $11,946 for the respective periods.  The decrease was caused by a further decrease in employee health benefits.

Depreciation of $1,550 and $155 was recorded during the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2008, a decrease of $27,014 and $14,127 for the similar periods in the prior year.  Almost all of our equipment is fully depreciated and, therefore, our depreciation expense has decreased substantially.

Other general and administrative expenses totaled $5,979 and $2,779 during the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, decreases of $1,693 and $44 over similar periods in the prior year.

12

We recorded $14,228 and $0 in interest expense for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, as compared to $22,185 and $11,576 in the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2008.  Effective January 31, 2009, we converted many of our outstanding debts into preferred stock.  We accrued interest during the first fiscal quarter but did not do so during the second fiscal quarter of this fiscal year.  In the prior year, we had loan agreements outstanding accruing interest at 9% per annum.

Our net loss was $210,325 and $54,772 for six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009, decreases of $158,989 and $124,980 over similar periods in the prior year.  $98,835 of our net loss for the six months ended January 31, 2009 related to salaries, benefits and payroll taxes and contract labor that we accrued as a liability.  As of January 31, 2009, that $98,835 payroll liability has been forgiven.  $30,750 of our net loss for the six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009 is due to a non-cash expense associated with issuances of stock-based compensation.  If we remove the effects of the forgiven payroll liabilities and the non-cash charges for stock-based compensation from our statement of operations, our net loss for six- and three-month periods ended January 31, 2009 was $80,740 and $24,022, respectively.

March 1, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2009.  For the period from March 1, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2009, we were engaged primarily in raising capital to implement our business plan.  Accordingly, we have earned revenue of only $34,518.  We incurred expenses for professional and consulting fees, salaries and payroll taxes, stock-based compensation, travel, contract labor, insurance, interest and other expenses resulting in an accumulated loss of $6,265,174.  More than half of the cumulative net loss is due to the recognition of non-cash stock-based compensation expense for issuing shares, options, and warrants to employees and third parties in the amount of $3,220,953.  As we develop our business plan, we expect that cash generated through operations will replace many of the non-cash transaction structures currently utilized to implement our business plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have relied on the sale of equity capital and debt instruments to fund working capital and the costs of developing our business plan.  For the six months ended January 31, 2009, net cash of $33,000 provided by financing activities offset the $40,095 used in operating activities resulting in a $7,095 decrease in cash.  We obtained $25,000 from NMKT and $8,000 through the sale of our preferred stock.  We have a working capital deficit of $59,620 at January 31, 2009, as compared to $1,212,271 at July 31, 2008.  Our working capital deficit has decreased substantially since the beginning of our fiscal year.  As discussed under “Recent Financing Activities,” we restructured much of our debt into preferred stock and had much of our debt forgiven by our CEO and CFO.  We believe our reduced liabilities will improve our negotiating position with potential merger or reverse acquisition candidates.  In particular, with our improved balance sheet, we believe that we have a better chance of completing the acquisition of NLAI.

As discussed above, we have had minimal revenues and have accumulated a deficit of $6,265,174 since inception.  Furthermore, we have not commenced our planned principal operations.  Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain equity and/or debt financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of our business plan.

Our significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Historically, we have been able to raise additional capital sufficient to continue as a going concern.  However, there can be no assurance that this additional capital will be sufficient for us to implement our business plan or achieve profitability in our operations.  Additional equity or debt financing will be required to continue as a going concern.  Without such additional capital, either from NMKT or from a debt or equity offering by our Company, there is doubt as to whether we will continue as a going concern.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any material 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.

Factors That May Affect Our Results of Operations

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND MARKETPLACE

If we complete our planned transaction with NewMarket Techology, Inc., there will be a change in control.  We have entered into two letters of intent with NMKT whereby it is proposed that NMKT will obtain a 51% interest in our Company in exchange for a majority share of NLAI.  If this transaction is completed, NMKT will have voting control of the Company and will likely put in new management.  The ownership interests of existing shareholders will be diluted as well.

We are dependent on a few insiders to loan us money and keep us afloat.  We have not had sufficient capital to support our ongoing administrative expenses.  We depend on loans from insiders to pay our bills.  There can be no assurance that these insiders will continue to loan our Company money so that we can continue to maintain our status as an OTC Bulletin Board quoted company.  Furthermore, if we do not raise sufficient capital or complete our planned acquisition of an operating entity, we may be forced to seek protection from our creditors in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings.

If we do not complete the change of control transaction with NMKT, we must obtain financing to continue operations.  If we do not complete the transaction with NMKT, we must engage in debt and/or equity financing in order to continue operations.  We do not know the terms on which any financing might be available or if such financing is available on any terms.  Such terms may be detrimental to the interests of our existing shareholders.  The value of an investment in our common stock could be reduced.  Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impacts operating results.  In addition to the 5,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that has been authorized, other preferred stock could be issued in series from time to time with such designations, rights, preferences, and limitations as needed to raise capital.  The terms of such other preferred stock could be more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of common stock.  In addition, if we need to raise more equity capital from the sale of common stock, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, and possibly more, favorable than the terms given to our current investors.  Shares of common stock that we sell could be sold into the market, which could adversely affect market price.

If we do not complete the proposed transaction with NMKT, we will seek other merger and acquisition opportunities.  We may not be able to successfully acquire or merge with another business.  Any acquisition or merger that we undertake will require an unspecified amount of additional capital expenditure in the form of planning, due diligence, legal, and accounting fees.  We have no substantial experience in completing acquisitions of or mergers with other businesses, and we may be unable to successfully complete such a transaction.  Any acquisition or merger we undertake may result in a potentially dilutive issuance of equity securities, the issuance of debt and incurrence of expenses related to the transaction.

As a development stage company, we cannot assure you that we will succeed or be profitable.  We have been in business for a little more than two years.  From March 1, 2005 (inception) through January 31, 2009, we generated revenues of only $34,518 and accumulated a net loss of $6,265,174.  We are in the development stage, as that term is defined by certain financial accounting standards.  This means that as of January 31, 2009, our planned principal operations had not commenced, as we had devoted substantially all of our efforts to financial planning, raising capital, and developing markets.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful or profitable.

As discussed above, we have had minimal revenues and have accumulated a net loss since inception.  Our future is dependent upon completing the change of control transaction with NMKT or our ability to obtain equity and/or debt financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of our business plan.  Therefore, there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

We have significant numbers of convertible securities outstanding, which, if converted, will result in substantial dilution.  We have preferred stock, stock options, and warrants outstanding which can all be converted or exercised into common stock.  Our outstanding Series A shares can be converted, without additional consideration, into 8,253,450 shares of common stock.  The outstanding Series A shares already have the right to
 
 
14

 
vote 8,253,450 common share equivalent votes on any matter placed before the common shareholders for a vote.  We have 6,724,695 stock options and 5,033,364 warrants outstanding, with varying exercise prices.  The exercise of the options and warrants into common stock will result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.

Future equity transactions, including exercise of options or warrants, could result in dilution.  In order to raise sufficient capital to fund operations, from time to time, we intend to sell restricted stock, warrants, and convertible debt to investors in private placements.  Because the stock will be restricted, the stock will likely be sold at a greater discount to market prices compared to a public stock offering, and the exercise price of the warrants is likely to be at or even lower than market prices.  These transactions will cause dilution to existing stockholders.  Also, from time to time, options will be issued to officers, directors, or employees, with exercise prices equal to market.  Exercise of in-the-money options and warrants will result in dilution to existing stockholders.  The amount of dilution will depend on the spread between the market and exercise price, and the number of shares involved.  In addition, such shares would increase the number of shares in the “public float” and could depress the market price for our common stock.

Our common stock is subject to SEC “Penny Stock” rules.  Since our common stock is a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act, it will be more difficult for investors to liquidate their investment of our common stock.  Until the trading price of the common stock rises above $5.00 per share, if ever, trading in the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules of the Securities Exchange Act specified in Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10.  Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting transactions in any penny stock, to:

·     
Deliver to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure document;
·     
Disclose certain price information about the stock;
·     
Disclose the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer;
·     
Send monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and
·     
In some circumstances, approve the purchaser’s account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer with information specified in the rules.

Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell the common stock and may affect the ability of holders to sell their common stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can sell any such securities.  These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.

Since our shares are trading on the “OTC Bulletin Board”, trading volumes and prices may be sporadic because it is not an exchange.  Our common shares are currently trading on the “OTC Bulletin Board.”  The trading price of our common shares has been subject to wide fluctuations.  Trading prices of our common shares may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control.  The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with limited business operations.  There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our common shares will be matched or maintained.  Broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted.  Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for us and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

We are subject to SEC regulations and changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and other trading market rules, are creating uncertainty for public companies.  We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure.  As a result, we intend to invest appropriate resources to comply with evolving standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

Item 3.         Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not Applicable.

Item 4.         Controls and Procedures

As required by SEC rules, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report.  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer.  Based on this evaluation, these officers have concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all required information is presented in our quarterly report.  However, we did not file our quarterly report within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules.  The delay in our filing was due to a lack funds to pay the accounting and legal staff required to review and file our quarterly report.  While we believe our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, we have concluded that we have weakness in our disclosure controls and procedures related to inadequate funding.

Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During our last fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
