PART I

I te m 1.
Description of Business

General Information

The Company was incorporated in the State of Washington on March 15, 2000 as NetCo Investments Inc., for the purpose of marketing vitamins and supplements, via the Internet and commissioned sales agents. The Company subsequently changed its name to Syntec Biofuel Inc. effectively on July 27, 2006 with the principal executive offices located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The Company is at development stage and has not yet earned any revenues.


Business Development

The Companies prior main business was the marketing of high-quality vitamins, homeopathic supplements and pre-packaged vacuum packed raw foods, in meal sized portions, for domesticated household animals i.e. dogs and cats, via the Internet and commissioned sales agents.


The Company was doing business as VitaBeast Foods (“VitaBeast”) and started to market these products on-line under the VitaBeast Foods label.   The product was marketed in Vancouver, Canada in order to facilitate easy delivery of product.

The URL www.vitabeast.com is owned by the Company and customers were to place their orders, via the website, and have their delivery couriered directly to their address. All financial transactions were to be handled by VitaBeast’s Visa and Mastercard merchant account.

The Company operated the business for three years and came to the conclusion that as they had very little success in marketing the product on line due to the substantial number of established pet food providers that use Television advertising, which made it very difficult to compete with, that the business was not economically viable and the Company decided to shut down their VitaBeast operations as at December, 31 2007.


Current Developments

The Company was finding it difficult to operate the VitaBeast business and started to look at other business models that might create greater shareholder value. On April 7, 2006, the Company was introduced to a new business opportunity and entered into an asset purchase and assignment agreement (the “Agreement”) with Syntec Biofuel Inc. ("Syntec Canada") a Vancouver-based Canadian scientific research company (incorporated in 2001) to acquire all of Syntec Canada's assets and assume its liabilities. As consideration, the Company would issue 15,700,000 common shares in the capital stock of the Company subject to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The acquisition was subject to ratification and approval by the shareholders of the Company.

Syntec Canada had developed a proprietary catalyst that converts synthetic gas (“Syngas”) into ethanol.  Ethanol is used as a fuel or a fuel additive in gasoline. Syntec Canada process consists of a thermo-chemical catalytic synthesis of Syngas into ethanol from almost any source of carbon which is found in renewable feedstock such as manure, sewage digester gas, landfill gas, wood waste, agricultural and forest residue, natural gas and coal bed methane.  Syngas is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen found in natural gas, landfill gas and liquid gas.
 
The Company had undertaken to raise up to $1,000,000 by way of private placement and was offering a total of 1,000,000 units (the "Unit(s)") of its securities for subscription at a price $1.00 per Unit to fund the program.  Shareholders of the Company ratified, at their Annual General Meeting on July 13, 2006, the Purchase Agreement dated April 7, 2006 as amended on May 30, 2006, June 21, 2006 and July 12, 2006 between the Company and Syntec Canada. The Purchase Agreement was subject to the Company raising a minimum of $500,000 prior to September 12, 2006 or the deal would collapse and the ownership of assets would be assigned back to Syntec Canada.

By September 12, 2006, the Company was unable to raise the required minimum amount of capital, the proposed transaction with Syntec Canada was not completed and no shares were issued for the proposed acquisition.

The Company reduced their exposure to Iris International Holdings Limited ("Iris") (a lender) by assigning to Iris a portion of the debt due by Syntec Canada to the Company and reducing the loan from Iris to the Company by a like amount.

On the September 28, 2007, Mr. Jackson, our Director, was instrumental in again getting the Syntec opportunity back to the Company and  we entered into a new purchase agreement , (the “Agreement”) with Montilla Capital Inc. (“Montilla”) to acquire the Assets (including the Laboratory fixtures, fittings and equipment), and Intellectual Property with consideration of 11 million common shares and assumption of $350,000 debt due to Montilla subject to the Company raising a minimum of $500,000 and maximum of $3 million by December 31, 2007 (or the Agreement would be terminated). Mr. Jackson was a member of the consortium who had acquired the Assets in November, 2006.


We also entered into an assignment of agreement with Montilla for its catalyst development service agreement (the “Service Agreement”) with Syntec Biofuel Research Inc. (“SBRI”) on a cost plus basis. All new development and Intellectual Property will be owned by us.

On October 24, 2007, the Company raised $1,125,000 in total by issuing 4,870,129 common shares through the common shares subscription agreement at $0.231 per share. Money raised will be used to continue scientific research on perfecting and patenting catalysts that provide high selectivity to ethanol and higher order alcohols such as Butanol and Propanol. The primary goal is to commercially produce catalysts that can cost-effectively be deployed in catalytic reactors within reasonable temperature and pressure operating parameters. The Company intends to raise a further $1,875,000 by the 30th April, 2008.

SBRI has been developing new catalysts and the yield that has been achieved by SBRI's laboratory is 90 gallons of alcohol per ton of biomass which makes the process economically viable. SBRI's mandate is to reach a target yield of 113 gpt within the next 4 months.

Principal Products

Syntec’s process (‘Syntec Process’) is a biomass-to-liquid conversion path quite similar to modern day methanol or gas-to-liquid production processes used commercially by companies such as Methanex, Shell, and Sasol. The key differentiating factors are the feedstocks, catalysts and operating parameters.

There are 3 basic steps in the Syntec Process:
 
i.
production of syngas (CO, H2) either through the gasification of biomass feedstock, or through steam reforming/partial oxidation of biogas or landfill gas,
 
ii.
conversion of syngas to bio-alcohols over Syntec catalyst in a fixed bed reaction unit,
 
iii.
separation and purification of bio-alcohols (high purity) to ethanol, methanol, n-propanol and n-butanol.

The Syntec Process has the potential to revolutionize the ethanol industry with higher ethanol yields and lower production costs per ton of feedstock than any other ethanol production path in commercial use today.  Furthermore, it is anticipated that the Syntec Process will enable the conventional ethanol industry to also use these well established chemical processes (via the DOE’s integrated biorefinery program) to obtain production and efficiency metrics beyond what traditional grain based fermentation processes can offer.

Perhaps the most important aspect of the Syntec Process is the ability to convert abundant, low cost waste products into ethanol and bio-alcohols without harming the agricultural land base or competing with consumable food stocks.  Moreover, enough biomass exists and is renewed every year in North America, and other parts of the world, to significantly reduce a country’s dependence on imported oil required for petroleum derived fuels.

The Company plans on selling licenses, joint venture partnerships by using Syntec Process so it can generate revenue from licensing fees, royalty fees, joint venture profit participation, sale of turnkey facilities and commission on the sale of catalysts.


Competitive Analysis

Ethanol is currently produced primarily via fermentation of food crops such as corn or sugar cane. This process is well developed but remains subject to a number of negative externalities, including increase in food costs, using farmland for transport purposes rather than food production, water issues, net energy values and high cost volatility associated with grain feedstock usage.

We do not believe that any ethanol producing method will prevail, to the exclusion of others, as every ethanol producer, whether from biogas, biomass, corn and/or sugar is vital to achieve the mandated ethanol requirements to reduce consumers’ dependence on oil. We do however believe that our process is the best solution as it is less disruptive, has a lower cost, is less destructive to the environment, produces greater green gas reduction and does not require valuable farmland to produce.


Most ethanol produced today uses a dry milling fermentation process of food chain feedstock such as corn, sugar cane, wheat or barley.  Competitive research is currently being undertaken with catalytic synthesis (using various metals, slurry bed reactors or significantly higher pressure), enzymatic fermentation (which uses enzymes to break down bio-waste), dilute acid hydrolysis fermentation and concentrated acid hydrolysis fermentation.

Each of these fermentation methods requires considerable energy and time to produce alcohols, affecting the production volumes and economic viability.  In addition, fermentation technologies are sensitive to feedstock variations.  Slurry bed reactors require higher capital outlays and have higher operating costs than conventional fixed bed reactors.

Low pressure catalytic synthesis has been used for methanol production for many decades, and the Company is focusing on using similar methodology to produce ethanol, methanol and other higher order alcohols such as butanol which has even greater value.  Once optimized, the Company believes that a fundamental shift will occur in the ethanol production industry away from fermentation and toward thermo-chemical processes.

Patents

The Company acquired the patent application regarding “Catalysts and processes for the manufacture of lower aliphatic alcohols from syngas” as part of the Intellectual Property covered by the Agreement with Montilla.

Number of Employees

The Company has 2 Full time Employees other than the Directors.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On September 28, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement with Montilla whereby the Company has agreed to acquire co-ownership of the intellectual property (including patents) related to “a method for producing catalysts and processes for the manufacture of lower aliphatic alcohol (which includes Ethanol) from Syngas” (“I.P”.), all of the operational assets to continue the development and commercialization of the process (“Assets”) and the liabilities estimated at $350,000 for 11,000,000 common shares to be issued by the Company to Montilla and its nominees, at a deemed price of $0.455 per share, giving the I.P. and the Assets a total value of $5,355,000.

The Agreement was approved by written consent of the Company’s stockholders, who collectively own 78.39% of the issued and outstanding shares, on September 14, 2007.  Prior to the acquisition, Syntec Biofuel had 17,102,500 common shares issued and outstanding.

The value of co-ownership was questioned by Syntec’s counsel due to possibility of creating future conflict of interest.  Montilla agreed to transfer 100% of the ownership of the I.P. to the Company and on October 25, 2007, signed an amendment to the Agreement to complete the transfer.

The Information Statement on Schedule 14C has been filed and is currently under review by the SEC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-KSB.

Plan of Operations

The following discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to business and economic risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from those forward-looking statements. The following discussion regarding our financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto.

Our prior full fiscal years, ending December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, are not indicative of our current business plan and operations. During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, we had no revenue and we remain in the development stages.

We have not currently generated any revenue from operations and do not expect to report any significant revenue from operations until our marketing efforts mature. Even after the sale of our product, there can be no assurance that we will generate positive cash flow and there can be no assurances as to the level of revenues, if any, that we may actually achieve from the VitaBeast website.

Since inception, we have funded operations through common stock issuances, related and non-related party loans in order to meet our strategic objectives.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds to continue with our efforts to establish a new business.

We expect to continue to incur substantial losses in our efforts to establish a new business. We are a development stage company. In a development stage company, management devotes most of its activities to establishing a new business. As of December 31, 2007, we had a working capital surplus of $183,082. We are in immediate need of further working capital and are considering options with respect to financing in the form of debt, equity or a combination thereof.


Results of Continuing Operations

Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

The Company had no revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. Expenses increased significantly from $191,081 in 2006 as compared to $452,356 in 2007. In 2007, the Company incurred consultant and management fees of $207,983 as compared to $104,301 in 2006 as additional consultants hired for the new development. The interest fees were $26,618 in 2007 as compared to $3,824 in 2006 for increasing loans for operations. Furthermore, the development and office fees increased from $12,667 in 2006 to $135,338 in 2007 as more office staffs were hired and research and development expenses were charged. The net loss for 2007 was $449,395 as compared to $191,081 in 2006. Our net loss per share are at $0.02 for 2007 and $0.01 for 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash position is $509,504 as of December 31, 2007 and was $15,356 at December 31, 2006.

Our primary source of funds since incorporation has been through the issue of our common stock, the proceeds of the initial public offering and loans to us by third parties.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern and fund operations through the remainder of 2007 is contingent upon its ability to raise funds through equity or debt financing.

The Company has arranged loans from third party lenders in order to fund the on going operations of the business. These loans have been secured by way of Promissory Notes.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussions and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, including the discussion on liquidity and capital resources, are based upon the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.   Management re-evaluates its estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis particularly those related to the determination of the impairment of its intangible assets. Actual results could differ from the estimates. We believe the following are the critical accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements.

We have adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.

Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us, which have a material impact on our financial condition and results.  Management believes its critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the presentation of our financial statements.  Our critical accounting policies include debt management and accounting for stock-based compensation.  We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as "special purpose entities".


New Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141 (Revised 2007) "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which requires the Company to record fair value estimates of contingent consideration and certain other potential liabilities during the original purchase price allocation, expense acquisition costs as incurred and does not permit certain restructuring activities previously allowed under Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3 to be recorded as a component of purchase accounting. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will adopt this standard at the beginning of the Company's year ending December 31, 2008 for all prospective business acquisitions. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-3 "Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to be Used in Future Research and Development Activities" ("EITF Issue No. 07-3") which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. EITF Issue No. 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts will be recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF Issue No. 07-3 to have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for the Company would be the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 159 on its financial position and results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measures”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), expands disclosures about fair value measurements, and applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. However, the FASB anticipates that for some entities, the application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for the Company would be the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 but does not expect that it will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” SAB No. 108 addresses how the effects of prior year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB No. 108 requires companies to quantify misstatements using a balance sheet and income statement approach and to evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying an error that is material in light of relevant quantitative and qualitative factors. SAB No. 108 is effective for periods ending after November 15, 2006.  The adoption of SAB No. 108 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Syntec Biofuel Inc., a development stage company, as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended and the cumulative period from March 15, 2000 (inception) to December 31, 2007.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  The financial statements as of December 31, 2005 and for the period from March 15, 2000 (inception) to December 31, 2005 were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 17, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements, except the report contained an explanatory report in respect to the substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements for the period March 15, 2000 (inception) to December 31, 2005 reflect a total net loss of $112,724, of the related cumulative totals.  Our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts included for such prior periods, is based solely on the reports of such other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Syntec Biofuel Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from March 15, 2000 (inception) to December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, to date the Company has reported losses since inception from operations and requires additional funds to meet its obligations and fund the costs of its operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SYNTEC BIOFUEL INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007

Note 1
Nature and Continuance of Operations

Syntec Biofuel Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Washington on March 15, 2000. The Company is in the development stage and intended on selling and marketing via the internet and commissioned sales agents, high-quality vitamins and homeopathic supplements, pre-packaged vacuum packed frozen foods in meal sized portions for consumption by domesticated household animals, i.e.; dogs and cats under the ‘VitaBeast Foods’ label. The Company is a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Development Stage Enterprises.”

The Company, on April 7, 2006, entered into a purchase and assignment agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Syntec Biofuel Inc. ("Syntec Canada"), a Canadian company located in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, to acquire all of its assets including the intellectual property relating to the development of a catalyst that would convert biomass waste material into ethanol. The Purchase Agreement was subject to the Company raising a minimum of $500,000 prior to September 12, 2006 or the ownership of assets would be assigned back to Syntec Canada. At the Annual General Meeting on July 13, 2006, the shareholders of the Company ratified the Purchase Agreement and the decision to change the Company’s name to Syntec Biofuel Inc. from NetCo Investments Inc. effective July 27, 2006. On September 12, 2006, the Company was unable to raise the required minimum amount of capital and the pending transaction with Syntec Canada was terminated.

On September 28, 2007, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Montilla Capital Inc. (“Montilla”), a private company that acquired the assets of Syntec Canada, to acquire co-ownership of certain intellectual property. The intellectual property relates to the development of a method of producing catalysts and processes that converts biomass waste material into ethanol. This agreement closed on October 24, 2007. See Note 3.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  At December 31, 2007, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $753,200 since its inception. Management intends to generate money from future production of ethanol and raise funds from investors via equity. It is to be expected that the Company may incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts reasonable doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 
a)
Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

Note 2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d…)

 
b)
Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Syntec Biofuel Inc. and its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary Syntec Biofuel Technologies Inc. which was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada on May 17, 2007. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 
c)
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s actual results could vary materially from management’s estimates and assumptions. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of impairment of intangibles and long lived assets, expected tax rates for future income tax recoveries and determining the fair values of financial instruments.

 
d)Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than three months.
 
 
e)
Equipment and Depreciation

Equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the following methods and annual rates:
   
Basis
 
Rate
         
Computer equipments
 
Straight-line and declining balance
 
20% to 30%
Office and laboratory equipments
 
Straight-line
 
20%

 
f)
Intangible Assets

The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets”.  Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are annually tested for impairment.  The determination of any impairment includes a comparison of the estimated future operating cash flows anticipated during the remaining life for the net carrying value of the asset as well as a comparison of the fair value to the book value of the Company or the reporting unit to which the goodwill can be attributed.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d…)

 
g)
Long Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable at the end of each reporting   period.    Conditions that  would   necessitate   an   impairment   assessment   include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent of manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, management measures fair value based on quoted market prices or based on discounted estimates of future cash flows.

 
h)
Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of the Company are translated to United States dollar equivalents in accordance with SFAS No. 52 , “Foreign Currency Translation”. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollar equivalents at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Average rates for the year are used to translate revenues and expenses.
 
The cumulative translation adjustment is reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income, whereas gains and losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
 
 
i)
Other Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the only component of comprehensive income was foreign currency translation adjustments.

 
j)
Income Taxes

 
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes".  Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

 
The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007. Previously, the Company had accounted for tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No.5, Accounting for Contingencies. As required by Interpretation 48, which clarifies SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would make more likely

than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting this standard, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. At the adoption date, the Company applied Interpretation 48 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact in the consolidated financial statements during the year ended December 31, 2007.

 
k)
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”.  Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive securities were exercised or converted to common stock.  The dilutive effect of options and warrants and their equivalent is computed by application of the treasury stock method and the effect of convertible securities by the “if converted” method.  For the years presented, diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share as the effect of the computations are anti-dilutive.

 
l)
Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable and due to related parties approximates their fair value due to the short maturity of such instruments.  Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 
m)
Stock-based Compensation

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which requires the compensation cost related to share-based payments, such as stock options and employee stock purchase plans, be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value of the award. As at December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. Accordingly, no stock-based compensation has been recorded to date.

 
n)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for the Company would be the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 159 on its financial position and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (cont’d…)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2010.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business  combination.   The  guidance  will  become  effective  for  the  fiscal  year  beginning  after

December 15, 2008.  Management is in the process of evaluating the impact SFAS 141 (Revised) will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Income Taxes (cont’d…)

 
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company did not recognize any interest and penalties. Due to the potential offset of the Company’s operating loss carryforward for any future activity, the amount attributed to interest and penalties would be immaterial.

No provision for income taxes has been provided in these financial statements due to the net loss for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.  At December 31, 2007, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards, which expire commencing in 2020, totaling approximately $709,000.  The potential tax benefit of these losses may be limited due to certain change in ownership provisions under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRS”) and similar state provisions.

 
IRS Section 382 places a limitation (the “Section 382 Limitation”) on the amount of taxable income which can be offset by net operating loss carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than a 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation. Generally, after a control change, a loss corporation cannot deduct operating loss carryforwards in excess of the Section 382 Limitation. Due to these “change in ownership” provisions, utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods. The Company has not concluded its analysis of Section 382 through December 31, 2007, but believes that the provisions will not limit the availability of losses to offset future income.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

On July 12, 2006, the Company agreed to terminate the services of their accountant, Amisano Hanson.   They appointed Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP, Chartered Accountants, as their replacement.  The decision to change the certified accountant had nothing to do with the performance of the former accountant’s services.  Amisano Hanson’s report in the 2005 Consolidated Financial Statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were the statements modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

We did not have any disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Amisano Hanson satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with their report.

The Company has given Amisano Hanson authorization to fully respond to the inquiries of the Company’s new accountants, Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP, concerning the previous consolidated financial statements audited by Amisano Hanson.  There were no limitations placed upon Amisano Hanson, whatsoever.

The fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were audited by Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP.  The fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were audited by Amisano Hanson.

Controls and Procedures

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management must evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 (a). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As of December 31, 2007, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company's Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and communicated the matters to our management.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an affect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of outside directors on the Company's board of directors can resulting in oversight in the establishing and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures which can affect the process of preparing Company's financial statements.


We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will create a segregation of duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company: i) Appointing one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishing and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management ; and ii) Preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result in proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the accounting department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turn over issues within the accounting department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the Company may encounter in the future.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the small business issuer's last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

From January to December 2007, we pay a monthly administrative fee of $5,000 to Pelican Financial Corporation, of which Mr. Jackson is a director and beneficial owner.

Our policy regarding related transactions requires that any director or officer who has an interest in any transaction to be approved by our Board of Directors disclose the presence and the nature of the interest to the Board of Directors prior to any approval of the transaction by the Board of Directors.  The transaction may then be approved by a majority of the disinterested directors, provided that an interested director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at the meeting of the Board of Directors to approve the transaction. Our policy regarding compensation for directors and officers is that the Board of Directors may, without regard to personal interest, establish the compensation of directors for services in any capacity.
