TELCOBLUE, INC.
This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements that have been made pursuant to the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about TelcoBlue’s industry, management beliefs, and assumptions made by management. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” ”believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict; therefore, actual results and outcomes may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in any such forward-looking statements.
PART I
ITEM 1.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
TelcoBlue, Inc., formerly Better Call Home, Inc. ("BCH"), a development stage company, was formed in Nevada on August 2, 2002, to operate an Internet based long distance telephony network using state of the art Voice over Internet Protocol.
On August 29, 2002, BCH entered into a reorganization with Wave Power.net, Inc., an inactive public company, whereby Wave Power acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of BCH's common stock by issuing to BCH's shareholders, pro rata, 16,000,000 shares of Wave Power common stock. At that time, Wave Power had 14,000,000 shares outstanding. The combined entity changed its name to TelcoBlue, Inc. on August 29, 2002.
In the spring of 2003, PCM acquired the assets of GMB in El Paso, Texas, whose product offerings ranged from photomounts and other related paper packaging items to padded folios, wedding albums and baby albums.
On December 10, 2003, the Company purchased the assets of Show Me Ink, LLC, an entity owned by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and majority stockholder in exchange for $450,000, which was contributed by the Chief Executive Officer to the Company. In addition, the Company forgave debt owed by Show Me Ink, LLC totaling $1,588,521.
On January 22, 2004, TelcoBlue, Inc. acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. ("PCM"), a private Nevada company in exchange for 28,700,000 shares of TelcoBlue, Inc. ("TELCO") common stock through a tax-free stock exchange, the terms and conditions set forth in an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization ("Agreement and Reorganization"). (Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of Nevada on January 24, 2003 with authorized common stock of 75,000,000 with a par value of $0.001.) Prior to the TBLU Transaction, TBLU was a non-operating public shell company with no operations, nominal assets and 5,482,075 shares of common stock issued and outstanding; and Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc was a professional photo packaging operation, specializing in wedding albums, baby albums and photo mounts from its factory in Lexington, Kentucky.
The TBLU Transaction is considered to be a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination. Inasmuch, the TBLU Transaction is equivalent to the issuance of stock by Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. for the net monetary assets of a non-operational public shell company (TBLU), accompanied by a recapitalization.
In 2005, the Company’s intention was to re-structure its manufacturing process, digitizing its operations in order to become competitive with similar businesses. Funds to enact these changes did not materialize. As a consequence, we conducted no business in the year 2005. We will continue to seek funding from viable sources which would help the company accomplish this change-over.
These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing or sale of its common stock as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.
Since that time, TelcoBlue has continued the evaluation of the photographic and communication industries for potential opportunities for merger and acquisitions. None have been identified as of June 1, 2008, however TelcoBlue continues to evaluate the development of a web site, market plan and business plan.
2
TelcoBlue had been involved in various aspects of the communications industry but had gone dormant. PCMI who had acquired GMB Photo Packaging, known as the oldest provider of Folios, Barn Doors, Albums, Baby Albums, and Premier Wedding Albums provided a vehicle that helped both companies to achieve new potentials. GMB had in excess of 2000 packaging products. PCMI largely involved I the sports photo packaging had recently achieved approvals from Major League Baseball and Football for specialty photo packaging. About a year and one-half into the project, almost overnight, photography went digital. Digital has a different format that made our products out-dated. Cost to rehab the old equipment was more expensive than the purchase of new equipment. Therefore, it was decided to reevaluate our possible opportunities, which is in fact ongoing.
The overnight conversion to digital required TelcoBlue to give strong consideration to other options that included web- based advertising, wireless communication in the gaming, entertainment and telephone industry. These options as well as the revamping of photo packaging is in the development process. New products and delivery systems will be revealed in late 2009 after a complete review and acceptance by the public.
We, as a small company have been able to react much more rapidly then industry giants. This one fact, may in fact give TBLU a well positioned competitive edge with our developing products.
The company currently has no material agreements under which it is operating.
In order to achieve our business plan goals, our Company anticipates needing to raise additional capital from the sales of restricted shares over the coming 12 month period. The company arranged for private loans on an open account basis with LexReal Co., LLC in the form of Promissory Notes at 10% interest rate per annun payable by December 31, 2010 which may be converted to stock. Conversion would be based on 40% of the average bid price for the 5 trading days preceding the conversion. The interest has been rescinded until such time that the company has revenues to support the interest payments.
The company presently trades on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board stock exchange under the symbol, "TBLU".
OUR PRODUCT
Our product will be photographic packaging products, folios, and wedding albums, sports functions, and sports packaging. TelcoBlue had been involved in various aspects of the communications industry but had gone dormant. PCMI who had acquired GMB Photo Packaging, known as the oldest provider of Folios, Barn Doors, Albums, Baby Albums, and Premier Wedding Albums provided a vehicle that helped both companies to achieve new potentials. GMB had in excess of 2000 packaging products. PCMI largely involved sports photo packaging and had recently achieved approvals from Major League Baseball and Football for specialty photo packaging. About a year and one-half into the project, almost overnight, photography went digital. Digital has a different format that made our products out-dated.

These options as well as the revamping of photo packaging is in the development process. New products and delivery systems will be revealed in late 2009 after a complete review and acceptance by the public.
We, as a small company have been able to react much more rapidly then industry giants. This one fact, may in fact give TBLU a well positioned competitive edge with our developing products.
During the years ended 2007 and 2006, the Company has spent $0 and $0 in research and development costs.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 2007, we had 3 full time employees and 0 part-time employees. As of the date for this filing, we had 3 full time and 0 part time employees. Staffing levels will be determined going forward as we progress and grow. We also plan to add several employees to our staff. The level of employees is primarily contingent on the level of success of an offering. Our board of directors will determine the compensation of all new employees based upon job description.
ITEM 2.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company had during the period covered by this report, two offices, in Texas and Kentucky. The Company leased space at 6001 Threadgill, El Paso Texas under an agreement for 65,000 square foot space from 2003 through December 31, 2006. The monthly lease payments were $11,000.00. The Company’s Texas operations were moved to 2111 Wyoming, El Paso, Texas in approximately December 2006. The lease of $7,437.50 and $1,000.00 for insurance and taxes, for the Wyoming Street property was terminated by mutual consent with the landlord in the Fall of 2007, as the Company’s operations in this facility were discontinued and the assets sold to cover the rent payments due. This location housed 1 employee and was utilized by the Company for storage.

The Company moved its corporate headquarters, housed in its Kentucky offices from 3166 Custer Drive Ste 101 to 3328 Eagle View Lane, Ste 240 in March 2006 to accommodate its then present needs. The Company leased this space under a lease agreement for 1,400 square foot space. The lease term was for 5 years commencing April 1, 2006 and ending March 1, 2008 and the monthly lease payments were $2391.33. This location housed 2 employees in 2006 and 3 employees as of June 1, 2008. The Company subsequently moved its Lexington Offices to 1795 Alysheba Way, Ste 3105 Lexington, KY 40509 in March 2008, where it currently resides. The lease term is for 2 years commencing April 1, 2008 and ending March 31, 2010 and the monthly lease payments are $1400.00.

Turek, Sr., regarding financing activity of Plasticon International, Inc., an SEC reporting company, for whom Mr. Turek, Sr., also serves as the President and CEO. The SEC indicated that they are considering civil actions against TBLU and/or James N.

PLAN OF OPERATION
THIS FILING CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE WORDS "ANTICIPATED," "BELIEVE," "EXPECT," "PLAN," "INTEND," "SEEK," "ESTIMATE," "PROJECT," "WILL," "COULD," "MAY," AND SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS INCLUDE, AMONG OTHERS, INFORMATION REGARDING FUTURE OPERATIONS, FUTURE CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, AND FUTURE NET CASH FLOW. SUCH STATEMENTS REFLECT THE COMPANY'S CURRENT VIEWS WITH RESPECT TO FUTURE EVENTS AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, GENERAL ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS CONDITIONS, CHANGES IN FOREIGN, POLITICAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, REGULATORY INITIATIVES AND COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS, THE ABILITY TO ACHIEVE FURTHER MARKET PENETRATION AND ADDITIONAL CUSTOMERS, AND VARIOUS OTHER MATTERS, MANY OF WHICH ARE BEYOND THE COMPANY'S CONTROL. SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THESE RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES OCCUR, OR SHOULD UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE TO BE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY VARY MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, OR OTHERWISE INDICATED. CONSEQUENTLY, ALL OF THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS FILING ARE QUALIFIED BY THESE CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE OF THE ACTUAL RESULTS OR DEVELOPMENTS.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and plan of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements including information about possible or assumed results of our financial conditions, operations, plans, objectives and performance that involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. For example, when we indicate that we expect to increase our product sales and potentially establish additional license relationships, these are forward-looking statements. The words expect, anticipate, estimate or similar expressions are also used to indicate forward-looking statements.
Background of our company
We are not yet generating any revenues. We expect to have a business plan completed by year end 2007 or 2008, which is currently under development (see “Business of the Company”, “Our Product.”).
In order to achieve our business plan goals, the Company anticipates needing to raise additional capital from the sale of restricted shares over the coming 12 month period. The company arranged for private loans on an open account bases with LexReal Co., LLC in the form of Promissory Notes at 10% interest rate per annun payable by December 31, 2010 which can be converted to stock. Conversion would be based on 40% of the average bid price for the 5 trading days preceding the conversion. The interest has been rescinded until such time that the company has revenues to support the interest.
The Company intends to finance our future development activities and working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with additional funding from a private placement or secondary offering and other traditional financing sources, including term notes until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.
During the coming year, based on our anticipated growth, we plan to add several employees to our staff.
Since we have had no operating history, we anticipate that our quarterly results of operations will fluctuate significantly for the foreseeable future. We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results should not be relied upon as predictive of future performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by start-up companies.
For the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006:
Operating Costs – During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, operating costs totaled $435,051 and $518,980, respectively. The increase of $83,929 was attributable principally to Legal and Accounting.
The net loss for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $(571,743) and $(518,980), respectively. The increase of $52,763 was mainly attributable Legal and Accounting.
6
Liquidity and capital resources
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 the Company has had net losses of $ 571,743, $518,980 respectively. In view of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to begin operations and to achieve a level of profitability. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the sale of public equity securities. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes and proceeds from private lenders until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.
We anticipate that cash used in product development and operations, especially in the marketing, production and sale of our products, will increase significantly in the future.
We will be dependent upon our existing cash, together with anticipated net proceeds from a public offering and future debt issuances and private placements of common stock and potential license fees, to finance our planned operations through the next 12 months. We will continue to evaluate aquistitions, licensees as well as potential mergers while planning our possible move concerning the photography industry during the next 12 months which will require additional funding to continue operations. Based on our anticipated growth, we plan to add several employees to our staff.
Additional capital may not be available when required or on favorable terms. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to significantly reduce or refocus our operations or to obtain funds through arrangements that may require us to relinquish rights to certain or potential markets, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities would result in ownership dilution to our existing stockholders.
The Company has no options or warrants.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
We believe that the following critical policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements.
Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a declining balance and straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, principally five to seven years. Accelerated methods are used for tax depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When furniture and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciaiotn account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.
The Company has incurred deferred offering costs in connection with raising additional capital through the sale of its common stock. These costs have been capitalized and will be charged against additional paid-in capital should common stock be issued. If there is no issuance of common stock, the costs incurred will be charged to operations.
Research and development costs are charged to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS 159 permits the measurement of specified financial instruments and warranty and insurance contracts at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. We do not anticipate that adoption of this statement will have a material impact on our financial statements.
7
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations ("SFAS 141R"). SFAS 141R establishes the principles and requirements for how an acquirer: 1) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; 2) in a business combination achieved in stages, sometimes referred to as a step acquisition, recognizes the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values; 3) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase. SFAS 141R establishes disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This Statement is to be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 141R will have an impact on our accounting for future business combinations; however, the materiality of that impact cannot be determined.
In December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 ("SAB 110") which allows companies that do not have sufficient historical experience for estimating the expected term of "plain vanilla" share option grants to provide a reasonable estimate and to continue use of the "simplified" method after December 31, 2007. SAB 110 extends the opportunity to use the "simplified" method beyond December 31, 2007, as was allowed by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107"). Adoption of SAB 110 will not impact our financial statements as we did not use the "simplified" method to estimate lives of share-based awards.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its EITF), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of TelcoBlue, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of TelcoBlue, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ deficit and net income, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2007. TelcoBlue Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion of these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurances about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basic, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principals used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of TelcoBlue, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended 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 the notes to the financial statements, the company has suffered losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007 and 2006
Note 1 — Description of Organization
Nature of Business
General – TelcoBlue, Inc. (the “Company”) or (TBLU”), a Nevada corporation, is a professional photo packaging operation, specializing in wedding albums, baby albums and photo mounts.
History – On December 30, 2003, the Company consummated an agreement to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc., in exchange for 28,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“TBLU Transaction”). Prior to the TBLU Transaction, TBLU was a non-operating public company with no operation, nominal assets and 5,482,075 shares of common stock issued and outstanding; and Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. was a professional photo packaging operation, specializing in wedding albums, baby albums and photo mounts. The TBLU Transaction is considered to be a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination. Inasmuch, the TBLU Transaction is equivalent to the issuance of stock by Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc., for the net monetary assets of a non-operational public company (TBLU), accompanied by a recapitalization. TBLU issued 28,700,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. The accounting for the TBLU Transaction is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except goodwill or other intangible assets are not recorded. Accordingly, these financial statements are the historical financial statements of Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc. was incorporated on January 24, 2003. Therefore, these financial statements reflect activities from January 24, 2003 (Date of Inception for Promotional Containers Manufacturing, Inc.) and forward.
Effective September, 2007, the Company closed the albums business and transferred the machinery and equipment to its landlord for unpaid rent and a release from its operating lease on the premises.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles in the United States of America 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 reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is primarily 3 to 5 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income (expense).
The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful lives of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed assets in measuring their recoverability.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Revenue and Expense Recognition
Revenues are recorded upon shipment of products to customers. Costs and expenses are recognized during the period in which they are incurred.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company accounts for certain shipping and handling costs related to the acquisition of goods from its vendors as a cost of revenue. Additionally, shipping and handling costs related to the shipment of goods to its customers is classified as cost of revenue.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
The Company recognizes advertising expenses in accordance with Statement of Position 93-7, “Reporting on Advertising Costs.” Accordingly, the Company expenses the costs of producing advertisements at the time production occurs, and expenses the costs of communicating advertisements in the period in which the advertising space or airtime is used. Advertising expenses incurred for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $6,138 and $0, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carryforwards. 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 effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change on tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company has available net operating loss carryforwards that will expire in various periods throughout 2024. Such losses may not be fully deductible due to the significant amounts of non-cash service costs and the change in ownership rules under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company has established a valuation allowance for the full tax benefit of the operating loss carryovers due to the uncertainty regarding realization.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature.
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares during the applicable period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and common stock equivalent share outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments.” SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, and AFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” SFAS No. 155 permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS No. 133, establishes a requirement to evaluate interest in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on the qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of the Company’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Management believes that this statement will not have a significant impact on the financial statement.
In March 2006 FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets.” This Statement amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract and requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the Company’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Management believes that this statement will not have a significant impact on the financial statement.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In February 2007, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted subject to specific requirements outlines in the new Statement. FAS 159 allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item’s fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. FAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to draw comparison between entities that elect different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
Note 3 ― Business and Operations
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis that assumes that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, it does not give effect to adjustments, if any, that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize assets and liquidate its liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments in other than the normal course of business and the amounts which may be different from those shown in these financial statements. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to: Obtain additional debt and equity financing and generate profitable operations in the future.

While the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management believes that losses, if any, resulting from the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position. However, unfavorable resolution could affect the results of operations or cash flows for the years in which they are resolved.

ITEM 8A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s Chief Financial Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the fiscal period ending December 31, 2007 covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. This conclusion by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer does not relate to reporting periods after December 31, 2007.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) of the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Management, under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2007 under the criteria set forth in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has determined that material weaknesses exist due to the lack of an independent Audit Committee Chair, as well as a lack of segregation of duties, resulting from the Company’s limited resources.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 31,2007, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
