Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2010 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2010, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2009 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2010 is not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles 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. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 4 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 26, 2010, the Company initiated suit against a former officer, Prentis B. Tomlinson (“Tomlinson”) and his privately-held entity PBT Capital Partners, LLC (“PBT”), seeking damages for breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, unjust enrichment, fiduciary misconduct, exemplary damages, and declaratory judgment with respect to certain agreements entered into between Tomlinson, PBT and the Company. A trial date has not been scheduled. The Company is vigorously prosecuting these claims. However, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of any pending legal proceedings.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset de-recognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Item 1A. Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections appearing in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
Overview
Our business plan is to seek to acquire assets or shares of an entity actively engaged in business which generates revenues in exchange for our securities. We will not restrict our search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and we may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. This discussion of the proposed business is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. Management anticipates that it may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because we have nominal assets and limited financial resources. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our stockholders because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.
Plan of Operations
We currently plan to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation and, to a lesser extent that desires to employ our funds in its business. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of Mr. David S. Rector, our sole officer and director. As of the date of this filing, we have not had any conversations with potential merger or acquisition targets nor have we entered into any definitive agreement with any party. In our efforts to analyze potential acquisition targets, we may consider the following kinds of factors:
|
•
|
Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated market expansion or new products;
|
|
|
•
|
Competitive position as compared to other firms of similar size and experience within the industry segment as well as within the industry as a whole;
|
|
|
•
|
Strength and diversity of management, either in place or scheduled for recruitment;
|
|
|
•
|
Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required funds, to be provided by us or from operations, through the sale of additional securities, through joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources;
|
|
|
•
|
The cost of participation by us as compared to the perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials;
|
|
|
•
|
The extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced;
|
|
|
•
|
The accessibility of required management expertise, personnel, raw materials, services, professional assistance and other required items; and
|
|
|
•
|
Other relevant factors.
|
In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be controlling, our management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries, and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to the limited capital we have available for investigation, we may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.
The manner in which we participate in an opportunity will depend upon the nature of the opportunity, our respective needs and desires as well as those of the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of us and such promoters.
It is likely that we will acquire our participation in a business opportunity through the issuance of common stock or other securities. Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted, it should be noted that in certain circumstances the criteria for determining whether or not an acquisition is a so-called "tax free" reorganization under Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), depends upon the issuance to the stockholders of the acquired company of at least 80% of the common stock of the combined entities immediately following the reorganization. If a transaction were structured to take advantage of these provisions rather than other "tax free" provisions provided under the Code, all prior stockholders would in such circumstances retain 20% or less of the total issued and outstanding shares. Under other circumstances, depending upon the relative negotiating strength of the parties, prior stockholders may retain substantially less than 20% of the total issued and outstanding shares. This could result in substantial additional dilution to the equity of those who were our stockholders prior to such reorganization.
-3-
Our present stockholders will likely not have control of a majority of our voting shares following a reorganization transaction. As part of such a transaction, our current director may resign and new directors may be appointed without any vote by stockholders.
In the case of an acquisition, the transaction may be accomplished upon the sole determination of our management without any vote or approval by stockholders. In the case of a statutory merger or consolidation directly involving our company, it will likely be necessary to call a stockholders' meeting and obtain the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares. The necessity to obtain such stockholder approval may result in delay and additional expense in the consummation of any proposed transaction and will also give rise to certain appraisal rights to dissenting stockholders. Most likely, management will seek to structure any such transaction so as not to require stockholder approval if possible.
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation would not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in our loss of the related costs incurred.
During the first six months of 2010 we had only minimal expenses, which mainly consisted of filing fees and expenses associated with our ongoing public reporting expenses and minimal fees associated with searching out potential merger or acquisition targets.
We do not currently engage in any business activities that provide us with positive cash flows. As such, the costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations for the next approximately 12 months and beyond will be paid with our current cash and if necessary, with additional funds raised through other sources, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.
During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to:
• filing of our quarterly, annual and other reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including legal, accounting and filing fees, and
• costs relating to consummating an acquisition.
We believe we will be able to meet these costs with our current cash on hand, but may be required to seek sources of additional debt or equity funding in order to maintain operations.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2009
Revenues
We had no revenues in either of the three month periods ended June 30, 2010 or 2009.
Total Operating Expenses and Total Other Income (Expenses)
General and administrative expenses in the three month period ended June 30, 2010 totaled $55,576, a 10% increase over the $50,593 in general and administrative expenses incurred during the as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2009. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in legal and auditor expenses incurred in securing our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2009.. Interest expense, increased 20% to $3,665 in the three ended June 30, 2010, from $3,043 the comparable period in 2009. This increase is primarily the result of accruing interest on the Company’s accrued tax liability.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2009
-4-
Revenues
We had no revenues in either of the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 or 2009.
Total Operating Expenses and Total Other Income (Expenses)
General and administrative expenses in the six month period ended June 30, 2010 totaled $100,606, an 18% decrease from in the $123,361 in general and administrative expenses incurred duringthe six month period ended June 30, 2009. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in consulting expenses and other professional fees. ]. Interest expense increased 20% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from the comparable period in 2009. This increase is primarily the result of interest accruing on the Company’s accrued tax liability.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for cash. At June 30, 2010 we had a working capital deficit of $115,200 as compared to a working capital deficit of $7,701 at December 31, 2009. At June, 2010, we had current assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents of $136,623 compared to $267,760 at December 31, 2009. At June 30, 2010, we had current liabilities of $251,823 as compared to $275,461 at December 31, 2009. At June 30, 2010, we had a total accumulated deficit of $18,622,120.
We expect to have monthly overhead costs of approximately $25,000 per month for the next 12 months, of which approximately $5,000 pertains to legal fees, $5,000 pertains to accounting fees, and $15,000 pertains to basic general and administrative expenses incurred in the pursuit of various business opportunities. We not only require cash to pay our operating expenses and the costs we will incur as we seek out a business combination, we may require additional cash to satisfy obligations related to our prior operations. As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, PBT Capital Partners LLC is in default under the terms of the October 2008 agreement with total potential claims of approximately $424,000 as of December 31, 2009. No requests for payment or other claims have been made against us for these amounts and, while it is possible that future claims may be made against us, in that event we would seek to immediately enforce the terms of the agreement with PBT Capital Partners which relieved us from those liabilities. We do not believe that there is a more than remote likelihood that a third party claim for any of these amounts would be reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.
In addition, On September 15, 2009 we received via certified mail a copy of a Final Judgment entered against our company on June 30, 2009 in the District Court in Johnson County, Texas in the matter of Johnson County vs. Standard Drilling, Inc., cause number T200800519. The court awarded the taxing unit plaintiffs therein, Johnson County, Texas, Joshua Independent School District, Hill County Junior College and City of Cleburne, Texas, a judgment against our company in the aggregate amount of $202,873.70 for taxes, penalties, interest and attorneys fees, including continuing interest, related to four tracts of land. The court also awarded Romfor West Africa, Ltd. judgment against our company in the amount of $8,325.00, plus additional attorneys’ fees in the conditional event of appeal. Our balance sheet at June 30, 2010 reflects contingent liabilities of approximately $243,373, inclusive of accrued interest and penalties, related to this judgment.
Since our inception, our primary sources of liquidity have been generated by the sale of equity securities (including the issuance of securities in exchange for goods and services to third parties and to pay costs of employees). Our future liquidity and our liquidity in the next 12 months, depends on our continued ability to obtain sources of capital to fund our continuing operations and to seek out potential merger and acquisition partners. As of June 30, 2010, our remaining cash balance will likely be insufficient to cover our current liabilities, obligations and contractual commitments for the remainder of 2010. The actual amount and timing of our capital expenditures may differ materially from our estimates. In addition, we will likely need to raise additional capital through the sale of equity and/or debt securities to complete the acquisition of an operating company; however, it is unlikely that we will be able raise additional capital until we identify and possibly close such an acquisition for our company. Even then, given the relative present illiquidity of the capital markets there are no assurances we will be able to raise any necessary capital. If we are not able to raise capital as necessary, it is possible we will be unable to close an acquisition which will provide operating revenues to our company. In that event, the likelihood that we can continue as a going concern is doubtful and investors could lose their entire investment in our company.
Cash Flows
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, net cash used by operating activities was $131,137, attributable primarily to a net loss of $107,499 and a decrease in accounts payable of $30,968. We did not report any cash used in investing or financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2010, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, investment values, income taxes, the recapitalization and contingencies. We base our estimates on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based upon the evaluation of our sole officer and director of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2010, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"), our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer has concluded that as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We are a small organization with only one employee. Under these circumstances it is impossible to segregate duties. We do not expect our internal controls to be effective until such time as we complete an acquisition of an operating company and even then there are no assurances that our disclosure controls will be adequate in future periods.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
