ITEM 1.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
Business Development
Anoteros Inc. (referred to as Anoteros, the Company, we, us, or our) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Doolittle EduTainment, which holds all of our intellectual property, is engaged and in the childrens education and entertainment market. Our mission is to entertain and educate children through various avenues focused around our main character Doolittle and further development of additional books and the exploitation of our intellectual property rights.
The Company was incorporated on September 25, 1996 under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Out of Bounds Sports Co. and initially entered the sports wear market, manufacturing and marketing tee shirts, golf shorts and hats with the OB Golf and OB Sports logo. The Company turned its focus to the childrens education and entertainment arena utilizing the gorilla charter Doolittle depicted in various sporting activities and worked on various story lines and character treatments. We completed the final story line and draft of Book 1 The Story of Doolittle, an Exceptional Young Gorilla in May 2000. The story line and preliminary draft of Book 2 The Adventures of Dynamic Doolittle Episode 1 The Problem with Paulie Python was completed in October 2000 and, the story line and preliminary draft of Book 3 - Doolittles Very, Very Bad Day was completed in May 2001
On February 19, 2002 the Company formed Doolittle Edutainment Corp., a Nevada corporation (Doolittle Edutainment) as a wholly-owned subsidiary, for the purpose of holding the intellectual property and other assets relating the Doolittle books and product line.
On September 22, 2004, we Company changed our name from Out of Bounds Sports Co. to Anoteros, Inc
In 2006 and 2007, we completed layout, compilation and assembly of Books 1, 2 and 3 and in 2007 we completed our first three book titles which depict our main character named Doolittle:
·
Book 1 - titled Doolittle An Exceptional Young Gorilla addresses the issue of cheating on a very elementary childrens level.
·
Book 2 - titled The Adventures of Dynamic Doolittle Episode I The Problem with Paulie Python. This book introduces additional characters and has Doolittle taking on super powers (i.e. speed and strength). This book addresses the concept of sharing.
·
Book 3 - titled Doolittles Very, Very Bad Day addresses Doolittles negative attitude regarding doing home-work.
We have self published the initial three books with an initial run of 250 copies which are being utilized in exploring various distribution avenues. In 2008, as a result of input from the various parties that have reviewed the initial run, we undertook and made various corrections and revisions to Books 1 through 3 which are in a completed state and ready for printing and distribution.

Business of Issuer
The focal point and main character of our books is Doolittle which was created to target toddlers and young children. The character of Doolittle is portrayed as a charismatic, rough n tough little Gorilla who is a bit mischievous, has more than a little attitude, but is also cool and cuddly. Doolittle has been developed to be an all-round good guy, roll model and inspiration that will befriend, teach and capture the imagination of kids by excelling at sports, seeking adventure and enjoying things that are popular with children.
While there is no requirement for Doolittle to be a family values character, good citizenship, decency and manners are an underpinning we have instilled in the stories and assets developed to date. Our vision is to position Doolittle, along with his sidekicks, Ajax and R-Dub in various situations that evoke a need for children to make positive decisions. The story lines are designed to promote tolerant messages while keeping children engaged and entertained. Our goal is to teach and entertain kids with Doolittle as a positive role model. We believe that our books, three of which have been completed, along with additional education and entertainment products, which we may choose to produce, such as workbooks, coloring books and puzzles, have and will be developed in such a way that will complement and compete with the existing industry. With the success of competitor company characters and products, we believe that we can create a successful niche for Doolittle along with subsequent characters.
We will endeavor to make Doolittle (and subsequent characters) a household name for children and families. To obtain this goal we have various options to expand its presence by licensing the character to one or more companies to produce, distribute, market and retail the books and products to the mass market through highly visible and available channels including retailing, the internet, software games, publishing and all visual media markets. Although no significant relationships exist and no substantial relationships have been formed at this time we intend to pursue such opportunities as they present themselves.
Principal Products or Services and Their Markets.
We have completed and self published our initial three childrens books as well as various articles of clothing and toys, such as T-shirts, sweat shirts, super balls and stickers to develop and raise consumer awareness for the Doolittle character. We have also completed character treatments (i.e an outline summary) and themes for books 4 and 5 and at such time as we deem appropriate, based on the interest in, and feedback for, our initial books, we will continue the further development of these books. The goal will be to continually develop and produce quality books geared towards children with the lessons conveyed through a recognizable and respected character. Future products for character and name branding could include plush toys (stuff animals), coloring books, puzzles, playground balls, games and interactive software.
Market Analysis - Doolittles Niche
Doolittle is focused on the young childrens market specifically ages 3-10 years. We believe we can develop a specialty niche with Doolittle in this market. As we develop our brand name, we envision aligning our Doolittle character with schools and pee-wee and junior league sport clubs to promote and support sports activities. This will allow us to expand our brand name (i.e. character) loyalty directly to the family and social infrastructure of society.
Distribution Methods of the Products or Services.
Publishing
During 2007 we self published through Book Masters, Inc., the first printing of the initial three book titles. In 2009, after minor revisions and correction of typographical errors, we self published through Book Masters, the second printing of Books 1, 2 and 2. We continue to explore the possibility of traditional publishing for our books which is often difficult and time consuming to find a publisher willing to take on a new book line. In furtherance of this goal, on September 25, 2009, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Doolittle Edutainment Corp. entered into a Literary Agent Agreement with Geraldine Blecker to represent Doolittle Edutainment, on a non-exclusive basis, in connection with negotiations with potential publishers and book distributors in Europe. We continue to seek a publisher within the United States. If we are unsuccessful in finding a traditional publishing company to publish and distribute our books, we, we will continue to self-publish and self distribute our books while seeking a distribution agreement with one or more book distribution sources. While having a publisher to promote and market the Companys books would be the preferred method to achieve quicker market penetration, we believe that self publication and distribution through the various available distribution sources would be a viable alternative to traditional publishing and would allow us to retain total control of the product from inception through distribution.
Page 5
Internet
In October 2009 we launched our website www.doolittleedutainment.com to promote, market and sell our initial three book titles. Due to the popularity of the internet, businesses today must utilize the World Wide Web to promote market and sell products and services to consumers. We see great opportunities to build our brand name through our website and intend to further develop and expand our website as a dynamic and interactive website designed for kids but also informative for parents, consumers and retailers. When completed intend that the website will consist of information about the Company, the stories of Doolittle and will include games and a sports and adventures section that will be interactive, informative and entertaining for kids. Pending sufficient funding and capital resources, we will seek to establish and develop Club Doolittle as part of our website. Our intent is to utilize Club Doolittle to build a customer data base by allowing customers to sign-up for free drawings to win books and other products.
The web site will showcase our products to consumers and will provide an online catalogue allowing the consumer to purchase our books, and other products via the internet. Customers will be able to access our product brochure online which will feature all designs, colors, options, sizing charts, inventory availability and closeout specials. We envision that the website will be continually upgraded and modified by adding content that will make the visitors experience as user friendly, informative and entertaining as possible.
We view our website as an important tool for building and marketing our brand name. At this time the website is still in the development stages and no specific date has been identified for the official launch of www.doolittleedutainment.com.
Licensing
We plan to focus on the potential for licensing of our intellectual property, namely the Doolittle character and illustrations depicting Doolittle in various sporting activities. This direction, if successful, would allow us to realize quicker market penetration, growth and revenue. We believe that our main character Doolittle and his two friends Ajax and R-Dub along with our books, apparel line and other accessory items have been developed to the point that we have viable marketable properties for licensing.
Status of any Publicly Announced New Product or Services.
As of the date of this report there are no new products or services for which the company has publicly announced the release date. As set forth herein, we have completed and published Books 1, 2 and 3, and have completed the character treatment for two potential future books.
Competitive Business Conditions.
Our products are in direct competition with many different companies in this highly competitive industry. Many of these companies have substantial current assets and cash reserves and include companies such as Disney, Warner Brothers, and Nickelodeon among numerous others. This industry is highly competitive and it takes time and capital to develop the concept of a character and bring it to the marketplace. Since diverse distribution channels are available, we believe that we can be successful in bringing our character representation to the marketplace.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials.
We do not utilize any specialized raw materials. All necessary required materials, if any, are readily available. The Company is not aware of any existing or future problem that will materially affect the source and availability of any materials which would be required by the Company.
Page 6
Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers.
We do not currently have any identifiable customers. We believe that the diversity of the various avenues for the sale and distribution of our books and products offered will alleviate the dependence on any customer. Through the widespread use of our books and products in multimedia, electronic commerce, publishing, Internet and other developing industries, we will seek to develop a wide base of customers.
Patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts.
We own intellectual property rights including copyright and trademarks which are encompassed in our books and proposed product line. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary Doolittle Edutainment Corp. we received trademark and copyright registration for the following:

WebSite

Need for any Government Approval of Principal Products or Services.
At this time we do not require the approval of any federal, state or local agency with regard to any of our products or services.
Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on the Business;
We are subject to Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 1934 Act), which regulates proxy solicitations. Section 14(a) requires all companies with securities registered pursuant to Section 12(g) thereof to comply with the rules and regulations of the Commission regarding proxy solicitations, as outlined in Regulation 14A. Matters submitted to stockholders at a special or annual meeting thereof or pursuant to a written consent will require us to provide its stockholders with the information outlined in Schedules 14A or 14C of Regulation 14; preliminary copies of this information must be submitted to the Commission at least 10 days prior to the date that definitive copies of this information are forwarded to stockholders.
We are also required to file annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q with the Commission on a regular basis, and will be required to timely disclose certain events (e.g., changes in corporate control; acquisitions or dispositions of a significant amount of assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and bankruptcy) in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Page 8
We believe that these reporting obligations will increase our annual legal and accounting costs.
We not aware of any other governmental regulations now in existence or that may arise in the future that would have an effect on the business of the Company.
Research and Development Costs.
We did not make any expenditure on research and development activities during the last two fiscal years, 2009 and 2008.
Cost of Compliance with Environmental Laws.
At this time our business activities are not subject to any environmental laws or governmental regulation nor do we anticipate that our future business activities will subject us to any environmental compliance regulations.
Employees.
As of the date of this Annual Report other than George G, Chachas, a director and the sole executive officer, we have no other employees. We do not expect significant changes in the number of people we employ over the next twelve months. We plan to hire additional staff, on an as needed basis,
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS.
Investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this herein before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Our Business
There may be conflicts of interest between our management and the company.
Conflicts of interest create the risk that management may have an incentive to act adversely to the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest may arise between the Companys managements personal pecuniary interest and their fiduciary duty to our stockholders.
We have no officer, director, or employee with any formal book publishing or market education or training and will continue to rely on the outside consultants whose interests may not always be aligned with ours.
We have no officer, director, or employee with book publication, licensing or marketing training or experience. This increases our dependence on outside consultants we may engage from time to time. The quality of such outside consultants and the services which they provide may be influenced by the Companys financial condition and ability in retaining high equality consultants.
We have limited internal controls due to our small size and limited number of people, which may keep us from preventing or detecting waste or fraud.
We currently have only one director and one officer, so we rely on computer and manual systems without independent officers and employees to implement full, formal, internal control systems. Accordingly, we do not have separate personnel that provide dual signatures on checks, separate accounts receivable and cash receipts, accounts payable and check writing, or other functions that frequently are divided among several individuals as a method of reducing the likelihood of improper activity. This reliance on a few individuals and the lack of comprehensive internal control systems may impair our ability to detect and prevent internal waste and fraud.
Page 9
We will need additional capital, which we may seek through additional financing or the sale of equity securities.
We will need additional funds to cover expenditures in the completion, publications and marketing of our books and products. We will fund any additional amounts required for such expenditures through additional debt financing or the sale of additional equity securities, which would reduce the percentage interest in our Company held by existing stockholders and may dilute the economic interest of existing stockholders. Our board of directors can authorize the sale of additional equity securities without stockholder consent.
We may not be able to obtain additional financing.
There can be no assurance that any proceeds we receive from additional debt or equity financing will satisfy our capital needs. We may require additional capital to address unanticipated expenses. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed on terms favorable to us or at all. The unavailability of adequate financing on acceptable terms could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and on our continued operation.
Our officers and directors will continue to control us in the foreseeable future and they may take actions that are not in the best interests of our other stockholders.
George G. Chachas, the President, CEO, CFO, Secretary and a director, beneficially own approximately 60.98% of our common stock. See Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management. Accordingly, by virtue of their ownership of shares, the stockholders referred to above acting together may effectively have the ability to influence significant corporate actions. Such actions include the election of our directors and the approval or disapproval of fundamental corporate transactions, including mergers, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, liquidation, and the adoption or amendment of provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws. Such actions could delay or prevent a change in our control. See Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Description of Securities.
If we fail to predict consumer preferences and trends accurately, develop and introduce new books and products rapidly or enhance and extend our existing core products, our sales will suffer.
The introduction of new books and products and the enhancement and extension of existing products, through the introduction of additional content or by other means, are critical to our future sales growth. The successful development of new books, products and the enhancement and extension of our current products will require us to anticipate the needs and preferences of consumers and educators and to forecast market trends accurately. Consumer preferences, and particularly childrens preferences, are continuously changing and are difficult to predict. The development of learning products requires high levels of innovation and this process can be lengthy and costly. To remain competitive, we must continue to develop enhancements of our existing character base successfully. We cannot assure you that future products will be introduced or, if introduced, will be successful. The failure to enhance and extend our existing products or to develop and introduce new books and products that achieve and sustain market acceptance and produce acceptable margins would harm our business and operating results.
Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and prospects.
We have a limited operating history for you or our management to use in evaluating our business and prospects, particularly with regard to our books and product acceptance by consumers. To date, we have recognized no sales from our books or product and any sales from these operations may not meet our expectations or those of analysts or investors. When making an investment decision regarding our common stock, you must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties typically encountered by companies in their early stages of development.
Page 10
If our products infringe or allege to infringe on the intellectual property rights of others It could lead to costly disputes or disruptions.
In the course of our business, we may periodically receive claims of infringement or otherwise become aware of potentially relevant copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights held by other parties. Upon receipt of this type of communication, we will evaluate the validity and applicability of allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights to determine whether we must negotiate licenses or cross-licenses to incorporate or use the proprietary copyrights or trademarks or other proprietary matters in or on our products. Any dispute or litigation regarding copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights, regardless of its outcome, may be costly and time-consuming, and may divert our management and key personnel from our business operations. If we, our potential distributors or our manufacturers are adjudged to be infringing the intellectual property rights of any third party, we or they may be required to obtain a license to use those rights, which may not be obtainable on reasonable terms, if at all. And, we may incur costs in revising certain books or products so as to not infringe on others rights. We also may be subject to significant damages or injunctions against the development and sale of some or all of our products or against the use of a trademark in the sale of some or all of our products. We do not have insurance to cover any such claim of this type and may not have sufficient resources to defend an infringement action.
If we are unable to compete effectively with existing or new competitors, our sales and market share could be affected.
We anticipate that we will compete primarily in the preschool and elementary school category of the U.S. book and toy industry and, to some degree, in the overall U.S. and international book and toy industry. Each of these markets is very competitive and we expect competition to increase in the future. We believe that we will compete in the future, with makers of popular cartoons, childrens books and other educational products. Accordingly, many of our direct, indirect and potential competitors have significantly longer operating histories, greater brand recognition and substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. These competitors may be able to respond more rapidly than we can to changes in consumer preferences. They may also devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we are able to. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively in our markets. See Business Competitive Business Conditions for a discussion of the companies with which we believe we compete as well as the principal competitive factors in our markets.
We do not have long-term agreements with manufacturers and suppliers.
As a development stage company we presently order our products on a purchase order basis from manufacturers and suppliers, and we do not have long-term manufacturing agreements with any of them. The absence of long-term agreements means that, with little or no notice, our manufacturers and suppliers could refuse to manufacture some or all of our products, reduce the number of units of a product that they will manufacture or change the terms under which they manufacture our products. If our manufacturers and suppliers stop manufacturing our products, we may be unable to find alternative manufacturers or suppliers on a timely or cost-effective basis, if at all, which would harm our operating results. In addition, if any of our manufacturers or suppliers changes the terms under which they manufacture for us, our costs could increase and our profitability would suffer.
If we cannot attract, retain, motivate and integrate additional skilled personnel, our ability to compete will be impaired.
Many of our current and potential competitors have employees and we do not. Our success depends in large part on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified management and technical personnel. We face intense competition for qualified personnel. The industry in which we compete has a high level of employee mobility and aggressive recruiting of skilled personnel. If we are unable to continue to employ our key personnel or to attract and retain qualified personnel in the future, our ability to successfully execute our business plan will be jeopardized and our growth will be inhibited.
Page 11
Because our officers and directors are indemnified against certain losses, we may be exposed to costs associated with litigation.
If our directors or officers become exposed to liabilities invoking the indemnification provisions, we could be exposed to additional un-reimbursable costs, including legal fees. Our Articles of Incorporation, provide that our directors and officers will not be liable to us or to any shareholder and will be indemnified and held harmless for any consequences of any act or omission by the directors and officers unless the act or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. Extended or protracted litigation could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow.
Our stock price may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock will likely fluctuate significantly in response to the following factors, some of which are beyond our control: variations in our quarterly operating results; changes in financial estimates of our revenues and operating results by securities analysts; changes in market valuations; announcements by us of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments; additions or departures of key personnel; future sales of our common stock; stock market price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading volume levels of our stock; commencement of or involvement in litigation.
Authorization of Preferred Stock.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. The preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.
If we are subject to SEC regulations relating to low-priced stocks, the market for our common stock could be adversely affected.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations concerning low-priced (or penny) stocks. The regulations generally define penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our stock will be classified as a penny stock.
The penny stock regulations require that broker-dealers, who recommend penny stocks to persons other than institutional accredited investors make a special suitability determination for the purchaser, receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale and provide the purchaser with risk disclosure documents that identify risks associated with investing in penny stocks. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must obtain a signed and dated acknowledgment from the purchaser demonstrating that the purchaser has actually received the required risk disclosure document before effecting a transaction in penny stock. These requirements have historically resulted in reducing the level of trading activity in securities that become subject to the penny stock rules.
The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these penny stock requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in the common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock and our shareholders ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market.
Recent legislation addressing corporate and auditing scandals may result in increased costs of compliance.
An immediate and specific risk relates to the our ability to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act the failure of which could lead to loss of investor confidence in our reported financial information. Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we will be required to furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, then our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our stock could drop significantly. In order to achieve compliance with Section 404 of the Act, we will need to engage in a process to document and evaluate our internal control over financial reporting, which will be both costly and challenging. In this regard, management will need to dedicate internal resources, engage outside consultants and adopt a detailed work plan.

Holders of Our Common Stock
As of February 26, 2010, we had 41 stockholders of record based on information provided by our transfer agent.
Dividends
We have not declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock since our inception. We intend to retain all future earnings, if any, to fund the operation of our business, and, therefore, do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Future cash dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors.
There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1.
We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or
2.
Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting our financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes presented herein. In addition to historical information, the following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed in this report.
A.
Managements Plan of Operation
The following discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Our Plan of Operations
Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Doolittle Edutainment, which holds all intellectual property for the Company, is engaged in the childrens education and entertainment market. With the completion and initial publication and printing of our first three book titles we will seek to solidify a traditional publishing relationship while at the same time continuing to self-publish our books and seek to negotiate a distribution agreement with one or more book distribution sources. We further plan continue to utilize our intellectual property to entertain and educate children through various avenues focused around our main character, Doolittle and further the development of additional books and exploitation of our intellectual property rights through licensing, branding or any other acceptable manner.
We recently have begun to focus on developing the market for this book. As a result, we are a development stage enterprise as defined by SFAS 7. In our most recent operating period ended December 31, 2009, we recorded no revenue. Additionally, there were no revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Accordingly, we have issued a comment regarding our ability to continue as a going concern (please refer to the footnotes to the financial statements). Until such time that we are able to establish a consistent flow of revenues from our Doolittle products, sufficient to sustain our operations, Management intends to rely primarily upon debt financing as needed to supplement the cash flows generated by the sale of our products.
Our plan of operations for the next twelve months subject to our achieving the necessary financing, is as follows:
1.
We plan to carry out our sales and marketing efforts and seek to negotiate and facilitate a publishing contract for the publication of Book 1, 2 and 3 or pursue self publication through Bookmaster and distribution through one or more online and store-front distribution channels. We anticipate spending approximately $10,000 over the next twelve months for the printing of additional copies of Books 1, 2 and 3.
2.
We anticipate spending approximately $15,000 over the next twelve months on the development of Book 4 and possibly Book 5.
4.
We anticipate spending approximately $25,000 in complying with our obligations as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These expenses will consist primarily of professional fees relating to the preparation of our financial statements and completing our annual report, quarterly report, current report and proxy statement filings with the SEC.
Page 15
During the twelve month period following the date of this annual report, we anticipate that we will not generate revenues to cover our operating costs. We anticipate based on our current cash and working capital and our planned expenses that we will be able to continue our plan of operations for three more months without additional financing. We believe that we will require substantial additional financing in order to print additional copies of our books to effectively commercial market our books in order to earn revenues that exceed our operating expenses. We believe that debt financing from third parties will not be an alternative for funding of our planned activities as we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of debt financing from our principal shareholder and executive officer or equity financing from the sale of our common stock or sales of convertible promissory notes that are convertible into shares of our common stock. If we do not obtain the necessary additional financing, we will be forced to scale back our plan of operations and our business activities.
Our total operating expenses for the period from September 25, 1996, (inception) to December 31, 2009 were $495,123, of which approximately 46.53% were general and administrative. Our current monthly operating expenses average less than $5,000 exclusive of managements salaries, which are deferred until we begin selling our books. The following table quantifies the components that comprise our operating expenses for this period:
DESCRIPTION |
| AMOUNT | |
Legal and Professional Fees |

| 210,389 |
Wages and Salaries |
|
| 20,000 |
Taxes |
|
| 0 |
Total Operating Expenses |
| $ | 495,123 |
As we grow our business and obtain a publishing deal and/or purchase orders for our books and other products, our revenues should grow on a consistent basis. By focusing our efforts on limiting general and administrative expenses as we increase revenue, we expect to increase our net income on a consistent basis as well.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008.
As of September 25, 1996, (inception) to December 31, 2009, we have generated only minimal revenue. We earned no revenues during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009 and no revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008. As a development stage company, our revenue is expected to be derived from the sale of our Doolittle products.
Operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 totaled $67,646, resulting in an increase of approximately 33.49% percent from the comparable period of 2008. This increase resulted primarily from a 50.77% increase in general and administrative expenses associated with the second printing of Books 1, 2 and 3, and a 19.07% increase in legal and professional fees during the current period associated with the stockholder actions and reverse split taken by the Company.
We incurred a net loss of $77,449 during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009, resulting in an increased loss of approximately 31.34% from the comparable period of 2008. Basic net loss per share was $0.03 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009, representing no change from the comparable period of 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2009, we had a negative working capital of $186,986 compared to a negative working capital of $207,475 at December 31, 2008. The change in working capital resulted primarily from our operating losses, partially offset by cash received from a related-party note payable.
Page 16
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 we experienced negative cash flow of $25,543 from operating activities, and had negative cash flows from investing activities of $200. We met our cash requirements during this period through debt financing, realizing a cash inflow from shareholder loans in the amount of $19,866 and $5,000 from the sale of our common stock.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders of
Anoteros, Inc. & Subsidiary
(A Development Stage Company)
San Diego, California
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Anoteros, Inc. and Subsidiary (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and from inception of the development stage on September 25, 1996 through December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
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 the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Anoteros, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and from inception of the development stage on September 25, 1996 through December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We were not engaged to examine management's assessment of the effectiveness of Anoteros, Inc. and Subsidiarys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, included in the accompanying Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company does not have significant operations to date and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 -
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Anoteros, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Doolittle EduTainment Corp., is presented to assist in understanding the Companys consolidated financial statements. Collectively, these entities are referred to as the Company. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Companys management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America, as well as standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
a. Organization and Business Activities
Anoteros, Inc. (Anoteros) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 25, 1996 as Out of Bounds Sports Co. Anoteros has been in the development stage since inception. Anoteros has created certain pieces of artwork, and intends to further develop and market this artwork in conjunction with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Doolittle EduTainment Corp. (Doolittle). Out of Bounds Sports Co. changed its name to Anoteros, Inc. on September 21, 2004.
Doolittle was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 19, 2002 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Anoteros. Doolittle is working toward creating and marketing a series of childrens books and has completed the first three initial titles and is exploring distribution avenues.
The Company will seek to further develop and market its artwork in additional childrens book titles, as well as other related accessories such as puzzles, coloring books, T-shirts, sweatshirts, superballs, etc., through the Doolittle entity. Additional external financing may be required to proceed with this and any supplemental business plans which may be developed by the Company.
b. Revenue Recognition Policy
The Company currently has no source of revenues. Revenue recognition policies will be determined when principal operations begin.
c. Basic Loss Per Share
The computations of basic loss per share of common stock are based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period of the financial statements:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
d. 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.
e. Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are differences between reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Net deferred tax liabilities consist of the following components as of December 31, 2009 and 2008:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE 1 -
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
At December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $144,850 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2010 through 2030. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2009 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No.109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-like1y-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FIN 48.
At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized.
e. Income Taxes (Continued)
The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is still subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2005.
f. Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company adopted the following accounting pronouncements:
In May 2009, the FASB issued FAS 1 65 (ASC Topic 855) , Subsequent Events . This pronouncement establishes standards for accounting for and disclosing subsequent events ( events which occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued). FAS 165 requires and entity to disclose the date subsequent events were evaluated and whether that evaluation took place on the date financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FAS 1 65 did not have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operation.

f.
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In June 200 9 , the FASB issued FAS 1 66 (ASC Topic 810) , Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets an amendment of FAS 140. FAS 140 is intended to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets: the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance , and cash flows: and a transferors continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This statement must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entitys first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS 1 66 to have an impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
In June 200 9 , the FASB issued FAS 1 67 (ASC Topic 810) , Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . FAS 167 is intended to (1) address the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in FAS 166, and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provided timely and useful information about an enterprises involvement in a variable interest entity. This statement must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entitys first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS 1 67 to have an impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

On the effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS 1 68 to have an impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
i.
Inventory
Inventory consists of various proprietary illustrations to be used included in the Companys childrens book series. The inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method of accounting. Inventories are adjusted for estimated obsolescence and written-down to net realizable value based upon estimates of future demand and market conditions.
NOTE 2 -
NOTE PAYABLE RELATED PARTY
In October 1999, a shareholder loaned $10,000 to the Company. From that date through December 31, 2009, the shareholder has made several additional advances on the loan, and the Company has made some partial payments. As of December 31, 2009, the total principal balance outstanding totaled $133,584. The loan accrues interest at 8.0% per annum. Accrued interest at December 31, 2009 was $45,397. The loan is due on demand.
NOTE 3 -
GOING CONCERN
The Companys consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have significant operations to date, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to allow it to continue as a going concern. External financing, which is necessary for the Company to continue and proceed with operations, will either a) be loaned to the Company by its founder and principal shareholder, or b) will be generated by means of a private placement being contemplated by management in which the Company would attempt to raise between $20,000 and $35,000. The Company is currently seeking to negotiate a publishing contract for its childrens books and implement an appropriate marketing strategy so as to begin generating sales revenues. Management can make no assurances that these steps will be effectively completed, or that after having done so, the Company will become profitable. Until such time these steps are effectively implemented and the Company generates profits, the Company will be reliant upon external financing in order to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation as of the date of the end of the period covered by report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report 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 by the SECs rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, using the criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). 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 or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of managements assessment, management has determined that there is no material weakness
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 the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter (our fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The term internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrants principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrants board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
Page 35
(a)
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;
(b)
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and
(c)
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrants assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Page 37
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company's Common Stock, to file initial reports of beneficial ownership on Form 3, changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4 and an annual statement of beneficial ownership on Form 5, with the SEC. Such executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC rules to furnish the Company with copies of all such forms that they have filed.
Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms filed with the SEC electronically, received by the Company and representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, all the officers, directors and more than 10% beneficial owners complied with the above described filing requirements.
Code of Ethics
Our board of directors has not adopted a code of ethics due to the fact that we presently only have two directors and we are in the development stage of our operations. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our directors and officers or the number of our employees.
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our board of directors is comprised of two directors, one of which is an outside independent director, and as of the date hereof we have not established an audit committee. Accordingly, our board of directors presently performs the functions that would customarily be undertaken by an audit committee.
Our board of directors has determined that neither George G. Chachas, a director and officer, or Jennifer Karlovksy, qualify as an audit committee financial expert, as defined by the rules of the SEC. Mr. Chachas is not independent, as he is our sole executive officer in addition to being a member of the board of Directors. Mrs. Karlovsky is an independent director.
