PART I

ITEM 1.     BUSINESS

General

    We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 26, 2007. We have not started operations. We have launched our website (www.adensolutions.com) that offers a comprehensive list of services that we can provide to the business executive and other professional traveler. We will specialize in the business of providing assistance to corporate entities and individuals to maximize their travel experience and enable clients to increase their own profitability by saving them time. We have not generated any revenues and the only operation we have engaged in is the development of a business plan. We maintain our statutory registered agent's office at 1000 East William Street, Suite 204, Carson City, Nevada 89701. Our business office is located at 70 Chapman Road, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M9P 1E7. Our telephone number is (888) 536-2336. This is the home office of our Secretary, Silvia Soltan. We do not pay any rent to Ms. Soltan and there is no agreement to pay any rent in the future.

    We have no plans to change our planned business activities or to combine with another business, and we are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause these plans to change. We have not begun operations and will not begin operations until we are able to raise the funds to do so. Our plan of operation is prospective and there is no assurance that we will ever begin operations. Our prospects for profitability are not favorable if you consider numerous Internet-based companies have failed to achieve profits with similar plans.

    We have not conducted any market research into the likelihood of success of our operations or the acceptance of our products or services by the public.

Products/Services

    We intend to position ourselves as a service provider within the luxury travel market. We intend to offer the highest quality travel packages and concierge services to our clients. Our target market will be made up of corporations and individuals who can afford and prefer to travel luxuriously, and are able to discern that paying for our services will enable them to buy the most valuable asset of all "time." We intend to be defined by the quality of the unique aspects of our services. Those aspects ill include superior personal assistance, event and conference planning, travel consultation and arrangements, and full service concierge assistance.

    We intend to offer the following services:

Theater and Sporting Events Referral and Tickets

Dinners and Spa Referral and Reservations

 

*

*

Gift or Shopping Coordination

*

*

*

    We will assist in organizing meetings and conferences. We will assist in site selection, room reservations, transportation and all other aspects of the meetings as required.

Corporate Travel Arrangements

*

Trip Itinerary Planning

 

*

Customized Tour Packages to Luxury resorts and retreats

 

*

Air and Ground Transportation

    We will book all aspects of the corporate and leisure travel for our clients and will create a database of information that will enable us to immediately identify the client's personal preferences. Our goal is not only to meet the travel needs of our clients, it is to anticipate them.

Website

    Currently our website has been launched at www.adensolutions.com. We are still in the process of expanding our database and should be fully operational by the end of 2011.

    We have hired an outside technology provider to develop our website. The IT company we hired provides the following services and products for the website: disk space, bandwidth, 155 mbit backbone, pop mailboxes, e-mail forwarding, e-mailing aliasing, auto responder, front page support, unlimited FTP access, hotmetal/miva script, shopping cart, secure transactions signio support and cybercash support. The foregoing will allow us to transact the sale of our products/services, promote our products/services in an attractive fashion, and communicate with our clients on-line.

    The luxury travel and concierge industry is an upward growth industry, "a lucrative industry representing the elite 3% of travelers who account for 20% of total annual travel expenditure - and who are immune to economic slowdown" (International Luxury Travel; Market 2008 website). Our website is intended to be a destination site for those travelers.

    Our website is the virtual business card and portfolio for the company as well as its online "home." It will showcase past and current clients, subject to their consent, and the variety of services that we offer.

 

5



    The website will exhibit links to the service providers once we are able to enter into a strategic alliance with them. The links will provide the client with a virtual view of the destinations that we represent and events taking place in the area they are intending to visit. In the future, the website may also offer links to area restaurants and spas.

    The website is a simple, well-designed site that is in keeping with the latest trends in user interface design. A site that is too flashy or tries to use too much of the latest Shockwave or Flash technology can be overdone and cause potential clients to look elsewhere. To those prospective clients that we are targeting, time is valuable and a website that takes too long to load or is difficult to navigate would not appeal to them.

    We believe that the lack of financial security on the Internet has been hindering economic activity. To ensure the security of transactions occurring over the Internet, U.S. federal regulations require that any computer software used within the United States contain a 128-bit encoding encryption, while any computer software exported to a foreign country contain a 40-bit encoding encryption.

    There is uncertainty as to whether the 128-bit encoding encryption required by the U.S. is sufficient security for transactions occurring over the Internet. Accordingly, there is a danger that any financial (credit card) transaction via the Internet will not be a secure transaction. We are now considering risks such as the loss of data or loss of service on the Internet from technical failure or criminal acts in our system specifications and in the security precautions in the development of our website. There is no assurance that such security precautions will be successful.

    Other than investigating potential technologies in support of our business purpose and the preparation of our plan of operations, we have had no material business operations since inception in December 2007. At present, we have launched our website at www.adensolutions.com and begun work on our database. Currently we have not solidified strategic alliances to partner with so the amount of information on our website is limited. We believe that the website will be fully operation at the end of 2011.

    The Internet is a worldwide medium of interconnected electronic and/or computer networks. Individuals and companies have recently recognized that the communication capabilities of the Internet provide a medium for not only the promotion and communication of ideas and concepts, but also for the presentation and sale of information, goods and services.

Marketing Strategy

    We intend to negotiate strategic alliances with larger service providers such as five-star resorts and hotels. We will offer direct advertising of those resorts that we enter into strategic alliances with through a link on our website, through flyers and promotional material that we create, and through personal selling in exchange for a commission based percentage of the sale of rooms, tours or other services booked by a client introduced by us.

    Strategic relationships will also be developed with travel agents, convention centers and spas for a similar commission based percentage of any booking made by a client introduced by us.

 

6



    We plan to attend industry trade shows that are oriented towards creating opportunities for us to develop important strategic alliances with luxury properties in the US and Canada. One such example under consideration is the Luxury Travel Expo 2011 - the largest gathering of luxury agents in the world. (www.luxurytravelexpo.com).This would be an opportunity to meet and network with hundreds of luxury service providers.

    Initially we will aggressively court the key database of corporate contacts provided by our President, Stephan Oberacher and Secretary, Silvia Soltan in order to attract initial clients and strategic partners. We also intend to attract and add new clients through our website with a strong technical support capable of recording leads.

    Other methods of communication will include:

    

*

Email mailings - regular e-mailings to potential customers with updated company information and special offers

 

*

Direct mail - brochures and newsletters

 

*

Sampling - occasionally a discounted service package may be offered as a trade-in-kind to a visible and vocal trendsetter such as an advertising agent for a magazine or radio station.

 

*

Informal marketing/networking - activities such as joining organizations or attending tradeshows and conferences.

 

 

 

Customer-based marketing will include:

 

 

 

*

Emphasizing repeat sales to clients who have used our services

 

*

Exploring additional sales tactics to increase the total revenue per client through the sale of

 

*

extra services

 

*

Additional sales facilitated by links to our website

 

*

Strategic partnerships such as cooperative advertising

 

*

Special offers and promotions such as limited time offers or seasonal promotions.

Website Marketing Strategy

    Web marketing will start with our known contacts who we will ask to recommend our site. We will continue the strategy with long-term efforts to develop recognition in professional forums. We intend to attract traffic to our website by a variety of online marketing tactics such as registering with top search engines using selected key words (meta tags) and utilizing link and banner exchange options.

Revenue

    Initially, we intend to generate revenue from two sources:

1.

By entering into strategic alliances with luxury resorts and hotels to receive a percentage based commission of the room or travel package booking generated by us;

 

2.

By charging a fee to the customer for arranging travel assistance and/or concierge service.

 

7


    We intend to develop and maintain a database of all our clients so that we can anticipate their personal preferences in specific airlines, types of restaurants, type of recreational activities etc. That database will enable us to anticipate the needs and desires of our clients.

Competition

    The electronic commerce market is intensely competitive. The market for information resources is more mature, but also intensely competitive. We expect competition to continue to intensify in the future. Competitors include companies with substantial customer bases in the computer and other technical fields. There can be no assurance that we can maintain a competitive position against current or future competitors, particularly those with greater financial, marketing, service, support, technical and other resources. Our failure to maintain a competitive position within the market could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and competitive pressures faced by us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

    Most hotels and resorts have their own websites and upon initiating our website operations, we will be competing with the foregoing. We intend to differentiate ourselves by offering a much more personalized service. We will handle all aspects of the travel arrangements - air travel, hotel accommodations, car rental, limousine pick-up, floral arrangements, dinner, tickets for theater productions or shows, having your suit or dress pressed, down to ensuring that a specific brand of water is available in the room. We intend to act as a personal concierge or executive assistant throughout the duration of the trip.

    The luxury travel market is a small niche market and may be difficult to penetrate. Our competitive position within the industry is negligible in light of the fact that we have not started our operations. Older, well-established travel agencies with records of success will attract qualified clients away from us. Since we have not started operations, we cannot compete with them on the basis of reputation. We do expect to compete with them on the basis of the range of services and the quality of services that we intend to provide.

    Stephan Oberacher, our president will be devoting approximately 15 hours a week of his time to our operations. Once we begin operations, and are able to attract more and more clients to use our services, Mr. Oberacher has agreed to commit more time as required. Because Mr. Oberacher will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to him. As a result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended which could result in a lack of revenues and a cessation of operations.

Marketing

    We intend to market our website in the United States and in Canada through traditional sources such as trade magazines, conventions and conferences, newspaper advertising, billboards, telephone directories and flyers / mailers. We also intend to attend tradeshows and conferences. We may utilize inbound links that connect directly to our website from other sites. Potential clients can simply click on these links to become connected to our website from search engines and community and affinity sites.

Insurance

    We do not maintain any insurance and do not intend to maintain insurance in the future. Because we do not have any insurance, if we are made a party of a products liability action, we may not have sufficient funds to defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us that could cause us to cease operations.

Employees; Identification of Certain Significant Employees.

    We are a development stage company and currently have no employees, other than our officers and directors. We intend to hire additional employees on an as needed basis.

Offices

    Our office is currently located at 70 Chapman Road, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M9P 1E7. Our telephone number is (888) 536-2336. This is the home office of our Secretary, Silvia Soltan. We do not pay any rent to Ms. Soltan and there is no agreement to pay any rent in the future.

Government Regulation

    We are not currently subject to direct federal, state or local regulation other than regulations applicable to businesses generally or directly applicable to electronic commerce. However, the Internet is increasingly popular. As a result, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet. These laws may cover issues such as user privacy, freedom of expression, pricing, content and quality of products and services, taxation, advertising, intellectual property rights and information security. Furthermore, the growth of electronic commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws. Several states have proposed legislation to limit the uses of personal user information gathered online or require online services to establish privacy policies. The Federal Trade Commission has also initiated action against at least one online service regarding the manner in which personal information is collected from users and provided to third parties. We will not provide personal information regarding our users to third parties. However, the adoption of such consumer protection laws could create uncertainty in Web usage and reduce the demand for our products.

    We are not certain how business may be affected by the application of existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, copyrights, encryption and other intellectual property issues, taxation, libel, obscenity and export or import matters. The vast majority of such laws were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet. As a result, they do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the Internet and related technologies. Changes in laws intended to address such issues could create uncertainty in the Internet market place. Such uncertainty could reduce demand for services or increase the cost of doing business as a result of litigation costs or increased service delivery costs. In addition, because our services are available over the Internet in multiple states and foreign countries, other jurisdictions may claim that we are required to qualify to do business in each such state or foreign country. We are qualified to do business only in Nevada. Our failure to qualify in a jurisdiction where it is required to do so could subject it to taxes and penalties. It could also hamper our ability to enforce contracts in such jurisdictions. The application of laws or regulations from jurisdictions whose laws currently apply to our business could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

    Other than the foregoing, no governmental approval is needed for the sale of our products.

Holders

    On March 31, 2011, we had 75 shareholders of record of our common stock.

Status of Our Public Offering

    On March 7, 2008, we filed a Form S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a public offering of up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share, or $200,000 total. On March 17, 2008, our Form S-1 registration statement (SEC file no. 333-145600) was declared effective by the SEC. On September 29, 2008, the Company closed its public offering by issuing a total of 95,194,400 shares of post dividend common stock and raising $179,960. There were no underwriters or broker-dealers involved in the public offering. We raised $179,960 in gross proceeds. As of the date of this report, we have used all of the funds raised through our public offering.


ITEM 6.     SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

    We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Dividends

    To date, we have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock, when issued pursuant to our offering. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay cash dividends in the future.

    Payment of cash dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

    On August 14, 2009, our board of directors voted and approved a stock dividend on the basis of 1 additional share of common stock for each one share outstanding. At the time of the stock dividend there were 6,799,600 shares of common stock outstanding.

    On August 27, 2009, we obtained approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to issue a 2-1 dividend of our common stock. Prior to the dividend we had 6,799,600 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2009, we had 13,599,200 post-dividend common shares issued and outstanding.

 

11



    On August 30, 2010, our board of directors voted and approved a stock dividend on the basis of 7 additional shares of common stock for each one share outstanding. At the time of the stock dividend there were 13,599,200 shares of common stock outstanding.

    On August 31, 2010, we obtained approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to issue a 7-1 dividend of our common stock. Prior to the dividend we had 13,599,200 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2010, we had 95,194,400 post-dividend common shares issued and outstanding.

Stock Option Grants

    To date, we have not granted any stock options.

Registration Rights

    We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or to any other persons.


ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

    This section of the report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.

    We are a development stage corporation and have not started operations or generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.

    Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we complete the development of our website, source-out purveyors of services for products to sell and source-out clients to buy our services. We believe the technical aspects of our website will be sufficiently developed to use for our operations within the next 90 days. We cannot guarantee that once we begin operations we will stay in business after operations have commenced. If we are unable to successfully negotiate strategic alliances with purveyors of services to enable us to offer these services to our clients, or if we are unable to attract enough clients to utilize our services, we may quickly use up the proceeds from our public offering and will need to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officer or others in order for us to maintain our operations. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through our public offering.

 

12



    If we need additional cash and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. We believe the money raised from our public offering will sustain us partially through the year but with limited funds available to develop a growth strategy. Other than as described in this section, we have no other financing plans.

Plan of Operation

    We will not be conducting any product research or development. We do not expect to purchase or sell plant or significant equipment. Further we do not expect significant changes in the number of employees.

    Our specific goal is to profitably sell our services on our Internet website to the luxury market travelers. We intend to accomplish the foregoing through the following milestones:

1.

We intend to contact and negotiate with high-end five-star resorts, hotels, retreats, Spas, limousine services and private charter airlines to offer their products and services on our website. We will also develop strategic relationships with travel agents, convention centers and spas. We plan to attend industry trade shows that are oriented towards creating opportunities for us to develop important relationships with the management of luxury properties in the US and Canada. We believe we should have a minimum of three strategic alliances negotiated and signed within 30 days of attending the travel expo. The negotiation of additional alliances with service providers and the further development of the website will be ongoing during the life of our operations. As more service providers are added and as our customer database expands, we will have to be continually upgrading the website. We believe that it will cost up to $20,000 in order to have our website initially operational and $10,000 to have our database initially ready to receive information. Both the initial operation of the website and the database is anticipated to be ready within 60 days from the start date. The start date will be once a minimum of three resorts or retreats have agreed to let us represent them. As additional alliances are negotiated with service providers, we will up-grade the website. As our customer base increases we will up-grade the database. Both upgrades will be ongoing during the life of our operations.

 

2.

As soon as our website is fully operational, which as we have said will be approximately 60 days from the start date, we will begin to market our website in the United States and in Canada through traditional sources such as trade magazines, conventions and conferences, newspaper advertising, billboards, telephone directories and flyers/mailers. We also intend to attend tradeshows and conferences. We intend to target business executives, corporations and high-income individuals to become potential users of our services. Initially, we will aggressively court the key database of corporate contacts provided by our president, Stephan Oberacher, and secretary, Silvia Soltan. We may utilize inbound links that connect directly to our website from other sites. Potential clients can simply click on these links to become connected to our website from search engines and community and affinity sites. We believe that it will cost a minimum of $15,000 for our marketing campaign. Marketing is an ongoing matter that will continue during the life of our operations. We also believe that we should begin to see results from our marketing campaign within 30 days from its initiation, or 90 days from the start date.

 

13



3.     

Our marketing program will combine sourcing out service providers as well as clients to utilize those services. The process of sourcing out service providers includes identifying owners and management of resorts, hotels, retreats, spas, private charter companies, etc. via the Internet and research in trade magazines and directories. This process will start as soon as our website is fully operational and will be ongoing during the life of our operations. Sourcing potential clients may consist of telephone surveys and may contain questions that would "qualify" the potential clients. It will also involve research into existing databases available via the Internet to target and extract the applicable names and contacts to create our own customized database. We intend to look into the databases of travel journals, business magazines, newspapers, trade magazines as well as telephone directories. The cost to source and analyze all of the material to identify suitable candidates to develop and maintain the database is estimated to be $10,000 to $20,000.

    In summary, we should be in full operation and receiving orders within the next 100 days. We estimate that we will generate revenue 120 to 180 days after beginning operations. Until our website is fully operational, we do not believe that clients will use our services to book their travel arrangements. We believe, however, that once our website is fully operational and we are able to provide a wide selection of services that we can offer to potential clients, they will utilize our services as their "personal concierge" for their travel needs.

    If we are unable to negotiate suitable terms with service providers to enable us to represent their companies, or if we are unable to attract clients to use our services, we may have to suspend or cease operations.

    If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease operations. If we cease operations, we do not know what we will do and we do not have any plans to do anything else.

Limited operating history; need for additional capital

    There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in start-up stage operations and have not generated any revenues. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.

    To become profitable and competitive, we have to locate and negotiate agreements with service providers to allow us to represent them for a percentage-based commission. We then have to locate clients to book those services through us. We are seeking equity financing to provide for the capital required to implement our operations.

    We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
Aden Solutions, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Carson City, Nevada

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Aden Solutions, Inc. (a development stage company) ("Aden") as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related statements of expenses, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from December 26, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of Aden's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Aden is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Aden's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Aden as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from December 26, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Aden will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, Aden suffered losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ADEN SOLUTIONS INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Period From December 26, 2007 (Inception)
Through December 31, 2010

Note 1.     Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business. Aden Solutions Inc. ("Aden Solutions" or the "Company") was incorporated in Nevada on December 26, 2007 for the purpose of providing business consulting services to corporate executives. Aden Solutions is a development stage company as defined by the Accounting Standard Codification ASC 915-15 "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises."

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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.

Earnings (loss) Per Share. The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the period ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, Aden Solutions considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Income Taxes: Aden Solutions recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Aden Solutions provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Aden Solutions does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.


Note 2. Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies Aden Solutions will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Aden Solutions be unable to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2010, Aden Solutions has not generated revenues and has accumulated losses since inception.

F-6

23



ADEN SOLUTIONS INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Period From December 26, 2007 (Inception)
Through December 31, 2010

The continuation of Aden Solutions as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of Aden Solutions to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding Aden Solutions' ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. Related Party Balances and Transactions

The Company occupies office space provided by the president of the Company at no cost. The value of the space is not considered materially significant for financial reporting purposes.

Note 4. Loan Payable

On July 22, 2010, CRG Finance AG loaned the Company $10,000. The loan is due upon demand with interest at 7.5% per annum.

On September 29, 2010, CRG Finance AG loaned the Company another $15,000. The loan is due upon demand with interest at 7.5% per annum.

Note 5. Preferred and Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of $0.00001 par value preferred stock. All shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the preferred stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company. There are no preferred shares issued.

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of $0.00001 par value common stock. All shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company.

On December 26, 2007, Aden Solutions issued 70,000,000 post dividend common founder shares to the president of Aden Solutions Inc. at $0.00001 per share for cash proceeds of $50.

During 2008, the Company sold 3,599,200 post dividend common shares at $0.10 per share for an aggregate investment of $179,960.

On August 27, 2009, the Company issued a 2-1 dividend of its common stock. Prior to the dividend, the Company had 6,799,600 common shares issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had 13,599,200 post-dividend common shares issued and outstanding. All of the periods have been adjusted retroactively.

ADEN SOLUTIONS INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Period From December 26, 2007 (Inception)
Through December 31, 2010

On August 31, 2010, the Company issued a 7-1 dividend of its common stock. Prior to this dividend, the Company had 13,599,200 common shares issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had 95,194,400 post-dividend common shares issued and outstanding.

Note 6. Income Taxes

Aden Solutions uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. During fiscal 2010, Aden Solutions incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is $134,000 at December 31, 2010, and will begin to expire in the year 2028.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, deferred tax assets consisted of the following:

Note 7. Subsequent Events

On February 14, 2011, Aden entered into another loan agreement with CRG Finance AG for $25,000 of which $10,000 was received and is repayable on March 14, 2011 with 7.5% APR interest due. This loan has not been repaid as of April 4, 2011.

ITEM 9.     CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

    There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures from the inception of our company through the date of this Form 10-K. Our financial statements for the period from inception to December 31, 2010, included in this report have been audited by MaloneBailey, LLC, as set forth in this annual report.

ITEM 9A.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

    Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 using the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

    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. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.

1.     We do not employ an Audit Committee - While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the Company's Management view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity-level control over the Company's financial statements. Currently the Board of Directors consists of a sole member who is not independent of management and lacks sufficient financial expertise for overseeing financial reporting responsibilities. As a result, no effective Audit Committee can be established until the number of directors is increased and qualified members appointed.

2.     Dual Signatures of Checks- The Company's check signing authority is with its sole officer and director only. Management feels that the lack of dual signatures on checks can increase the likelihood of misappropriation of assets given the fact that there is only on authorized signer.

3.     We did not maintain proper segregation of duties for the preparation of our financial statements - As of December 31, 2010, the majority of the preparation of financial statements was carried out by one person, who is an independent consultant to the Company. Additionally, the Company currently only has one officer/director having oversight on all transactions. This has resulted in several deficiencies including:

a) Journal entries were prepared and approved by the same person, without being checked or approved by any other personnel within the Company. Additionally approval of certain material transactions was not documented as approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

 

26



b) Lack of control over preparation of financial statements, and proper application of accounting policies.

    Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Company's internal controls.

    As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

    MaloneBailey, LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, was not required to and has not issued a report concerning the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.

Continuing Remediation Efforts to address deficiencies in Company's Internal Control over Financial Reporting

    The Company is currently engaged in the review, documentation and remediation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Once the Company has sufficient personnel available, then our Board of Directors, in particular and in connection with the aforementioned deficiencies, will establish the following remediation measures:

1.

Our Board of Directors will nominate an audit committee and audit committee financial expert.

 

2.

We will appoint additional personnel to assist with the preparation of the Company's financial statements; which will allow for proper segregation of duties, as well as additional manpower for proper documentation.

 

3.

Our Board of Directors will appoint a member of management to act as the secondary authorized signatory on the Company's bank account; to decrease the likelihood of misappropriation of the Company's assets.

 

4.

We will establish policies to ensure that all significant transactions resulting in non- standard journal entries are reviewed and approved by the Company's Board of Directors and that approval be documented in the Company's corporate records.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

    We have also evaluated our internal control for financial reporting, and there have been no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect those controls subsequent to the date of their last evaluation.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

    We do not have an audit committee financial expert.

All directors also hold positions as our officers. Our audit committee is responsible for: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; (4) engaging outside advisors; and, (5) funding for the outside auditory and any outside advisors engagement by the audit committee.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards

    We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.

Indemnification

    Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

    Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 



ITEM 12.     SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

    The following table sets forth, as of the date of this report, the total number of shares owned beneficially by our directors, officers and key employees, individually and as a group, and the present owners of 5% or more of our total outstanding shares.

ITEM 14.     PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees

    For the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we were billed approximately $12,500 and $12,500 for professional services rendered for the audit and review of our financial statements.

Audit Related Fees

    None.

Tax Fees

    None.

All Other Fees

    None.

    Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

    Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our auditor is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

-approved by our audit committee; or

-entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular  service,  the  audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.

    We do not have an audit committee.  Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors.

    The pre-approval process has just been implemented in response to the new rules. Therefore, our board of directors does not have records of what percentage of the above fees were pre- approved.  However, all of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the entire board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.
