EXPLANATORY NOTE

The purpose of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended October 31, 2011 (the “10-K”), is to provide audited financial statements of Canal Capital Corporation (the “Company”) that were not provided by the Company in its original filing of the 10-K on January 23, 2012. Where indicated, the financial data presented in the 10-K is as of October 31, 2011, however, the other disclosures have been updated to reflect the Company’s operations as at the date of this filing.

Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We use words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “target,” “plan,” “optimistic,” “intend,” “aim,” “will” or similar expressions which are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, among others, any projections of sales, earnings, revenue, margins or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; and any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, as well as all assumptions, expectations, predictions, intentions or beliefs about future events.

PART I

Item 1. Business Company Overview

Canal Capital Corporation engages in real estate and stockyard operations in the Midwest section of the United States. Canal, along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Omaha Livestock Market, Inc. and Sioux Falls Stockyards Company, is involved in the management, and sale of its real estate properties and the operation of a central public stockyard. Canal also sells antiquities through independent art dealers and at public art auctions through its wholly owned subsidiary, Canal Arts Corporation.

At October 31, 2011, Canal's real estate properties are located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri and Omaha, Nebraska. Canal sold all of the property it owned in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in September 2010. The properties consist, for the most part, of land and structures leased to third parties (rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. Canal owns approximately 2 acres of undeveloped land in Sioux City, Iowa and it operates a central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal’s stockyard provides various services and facilities required to operate an independent market for the sale of livestock including veterinary facilities, auction arenas, auctioneers, weight masters and scales, feed and bedding facilities and security personnel. Canal also offers other services, such as pure bred and other specialty sales for producer organizations.

Due to cash flow constraints, the Company has entered a program of closely monitoring and reducing where possible its operating expenses. As part of that program, the Company has sold most of its property and has reduced the level of its art inventories to enhance cash flows. As of the date of this report, the Company has sold its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (formerly used in stockyard operations), two of its three remaining rental properties and its stockyard operations, including the 30 acres of land and the improvements thereon located in St. Joseph, Missouri. The Company’s only remaining real estate property is a rental property located in Omaha, Nebraska. Management is unsure if its income from operations combined with its cost-cutting program and planned reduction of its antiquities art inventory will enable it to finance its future business activities or fund operating cash requirements. In the interim, the Company is undertaking efforts to identify alternative business opportunities for the Company. If for some reason the Company is not able to identify an acceptable alternative business opportunity within a reasonable period of time, it may not have sufficient resources to continue meeting its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other obligations which arise from its minimal operations. This in turn would severely diminish the ability of the Company to explore alternative business opportunities.

History and Corporate Structure

Canal Capital Corporation, incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1964, commenced business operations through a predecessor in 1936. Canal was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canal-Randolph Corporation until June 1, 1984, when Canal-Randolph Corporation distributed to its stockholders all of the outstanding shares of Canal’s capital stock under a plan of complete liquidation.

The following chart reflects our organizational structure as of the date of this report:

Canal Capital Corporation (Delaware, USA)

  Subsidiaries: Omaha Livestock Market, Inc. (Nebraska, USA)
    Sioux Falls Stockyards Company (South Dakota, USA)
    Canal Arts Corporation (New York, USA)

All subsidiaries are 100% owned.

Our corporate headquarters are now located in the personal residence of its Chief Financial Officer at 4 Morris Street, Port Jefferson Station, New York 11776, United States of America and our telephone number is (631) 234-0140.

Overview of Our Industries

Stockyards

The stockyard industry is regulated by the Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The stockyard industry in the United States provides the smaller producers of livestock (primarily cattle, swine and sheep) an outlet to sell their products at public auction or through private treaty. Stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading and price discovery. The stockyard industry in the Midwest section of the United States is comprised of hundreds of stockyards and sale barns, some of which are larger than Canal, vying for the producers business.

Actual marketing transactions at a stockyard are managed for livestock producers by market agencies and independent commission sales people to which the livestock are consigned for sale. These market agencies (some of which are owned and operated by the Company) and independent sales people receive commissions from the seller upon settlement of a transaction and the stockyard receives a yardage fee on all livestock using the facility which is paid within twenty-four hours of the sale. Yardage fees vary depending upon the type of animal, the extent of services provided by the stockyard, and local competition. Yardage revenues are not directly dependent upon market prices, but rather are a function of the volume of livestock handled. In general, stockyard livestock volume is dependent upon conditions affecting livestock production and upon the market agencies and independent commission sales people which operate at the stockyard. Stockyard operations are seasonal, with greater volume generally experienced during the first and second quarters of each fiscal year, during which periods livestock is generally brought to market.

Real Estate

Canal is involved in the commercial real estate industry in the Midwest section of the United States. Commercial real estate refers to those real estate investment goods that can generate benefits in the form of leasing or rental income as well as from property appreciation. At October 31, 2011 Canal’s properties located in four Midwest states were, for the most part, on long term lease agreements or being held for resale. As of the date of this filing, Canal has one remaining rental property, located in Omaha, Nebraska and two acres of vacant land that is available for development or resale.

Our Services

At October 31, 2011, Canal engaged in real estate and stockyard operations in the Midwest section of the United States. Canal, along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Omaha Livestock Market, Inc. and Sioux Falls Stockyards Company, was involved in the management, and sale of its real estate properties and the operation of a central public stockyard. Canal also sells antiquities through independent art dealers and at public art auctions through its wholly owned subsidiary, Canal Arts Corporation.

Real Estate Operations

At October 31, 2011, Canal's real estate properties were located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri and Omaha, Nebraska. The properties consist, for the most part, of land and structures leased to third parties (a rail car repair shop, a lumber yard and a fast food retail business) as well as vacant land available for resale. Its principal real estate operating revenues are derived from lease income on its three long-term lease agreements and the proceeds from the sale of real estate properties.

In September 2010, Canal sold approximately 35 acres of land and the improvements thereon, previously used for stockyard operations located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota for $2.0 million generating a gain of $1.2 million. As of the date of this filing, the Company has sold all of its rental properties, with the exception of one located in Omaha, Nebraska which generates rental income of approximately $100,000 per year, and two acres of land that is available for development or resale.

Stockyard Operations

At October 31, 2011, Canal operated a central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri, and one located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota (collectively the “Stockyards”). Public stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading, and price discovery. The Company’s principal stockyard revenues are derived from a per head charge (“yardage charge”) imposed on all livestock consigned for sale at the stockyards and the sale of feed and bedding.

In December 2009, after extensive efforts to reorganize and return our Sioux Falls, South Dakota stockyard to profitability, we ceased its stockyard operations and leased an approximately 10 acre portion of the property, on a month to month basis, to a group that formerly operated at the stockyards as an independent commission firm. In September 2010, we sold the entire Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (approximately 35 acres of land and improvements) for $2.0 million, which generated a gain of $1.2 million.

In August 2012, we sold our St. Joseph, Missouri stockyard operation (including approximately 30 acres of land and improvements) for $500,000 which generated an operating loss of $577,000. This loss was due primarily to the unrealistically high historical cost at which this property was carried.

Art Inventory

Canal established its art operations in the late 1980's by acquiring for resale a significant inventory of antiquities primarily from the ancient Mediterranean cultures.

At October 31, 2011, Canal was in the process of selling, in an orderly manner, its remaining art inventory which consisted only of seven pieces of antiquity art. This was being accomplished primarily through consignment arrangements with various independent art dealers and through sale at public art auctions. Canal did not have any art sales in fiscal 2009 or 2010. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, Canal has sold one piece of its antiquity art for $12,000 which generated a loss of $8,000. Additionally, at October 31, 2011, Canal recorded a $70,500 impairment charge to write down its remaining art inventory to an estimated net realizable value of $10,000.

Our Growth Strategy

Due to cash flow constraints, the Company has entered a program of closely monitoring and reducing where possible its operating expenses. As part of that program, the Company has sold most of its property and has reduced the level of its art inventories to enhance cash flows. The Company may, as it has in the past, be forced to sell income producing assets to raise needed cash, thereby adversely impacting future revenues. In the interim, management is undertaking efforts to identify alternative business opportunities for the Company. If for some reason the Company is not able to identify an acceptable alternative business opportunity within a reasonable period of time, it may not have sufficient resources to continue meeting its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other obligations which arise from its minimal operations. This in turn would severely diminish the ability of the Company to explore alternative business opportunities.

Customers

Stockyards - At October 31, 2011, we had approximately 500 customers at our St. Joseph, Missouri stockyard location all of which were considered small to medium size livestock producers. At that time there was no concentration of customers or group of customers who represent 20% or more of the Company’s stockyard revenues as at that date. As of the date of this report, we have sold our stockyard operations in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and in St. Joseph, Missouri, and we are no longer involved in the stockyards business.

Real Estate - At October 31, 2011, Canal’s real estate properties consisted primarily of three properties (each located in a different state) subject to long term lease agreements. Accordingly, each tenant represented approximately 33% of Canal’s rental revenues. As of the date of this report, the Company has sold all its rental properties, with the exception of one located in Omaha, Nebraska and two acres of vacant land that is available for development or resale.

Art Inventory Held for Sale - Canal attempts to sell its remaining art inventory through independent art dealers and through sale at public art auctions. During fiscal year 2011, Canal did not work exclusively with any specific art dealer.

Sales and Marketing

At October 31, 2011, Canal advertised its stockyard services through print ads in the regional newspapers and carried on additional marketing activities through a network of market agencies and commission sales representatives. Canal has not engaged in such sales and marketing efforts since August 2012.

5


At October 31, 2011, Canal’s real estate properties are all on long term lease agreements with average terms of 10 years. In most cases, these lease agreements were renewed by the existing tenants and so we did not need to advertise. The lease on our one remaining real estate property has been renewed effective October 31, 2012 with an initial term of ten years.

Canal does not do any advertising or marketing on behalf of its art inventory.

Competition

At October 31, 2011, Canal competed in the area of real estate development with other regional developers, some of which were substantially larger and had significantly greater financial resources than Canal. As of the date of this report, the Company’s real estate operations have been substantially diminished to one property in Omaha, Nebraska which generates only $100,000 in income.

Prior to August 2012, the Company competed with other regional public stockyards and sale barns, some of which were substantially larger and had greater financial resources than the Company. In addition, the Company’s stockyard revenues were dependent on the ability of the market agencies and independent commission sales people at each of its stockyard locations to compete within the region. As of the date of this report, the Company is no longer in the stockyard business.

Canal competes in the sale of its art inventory with investment groups and other dealers, most of which are substantially larger and have greater financial resources and staff than Canal.

Employees

At October 31, 2011, Canal employed approximately 30 employees, and at such time was in material compliance with relevant United States labor laws. Canal currently employs 5 full time employees, three of which fill the responsibilities of senior management and accounting with the remaining two in administrative functions.

Regulation

The stockyard industry is regulated by the Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Canal’s real estate operations are subject to all local and state zoning laws as well as all U.S. environmental regulations. Canal is currently in compliance with all such regulation.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We operate in a highly competitive environment in which there are numerous factors which can influence our business, financial position or results of operations and which can also cause the market value of our common stock to decline. Many of these factors are beyond our control and therefore, are difficult to predict. The following section sets forth what we believe to be the principal risks that could affect us, our business or our industries, and which could result in a material adverse impact on our financial results or cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate or decline.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

The recent financial crisis could negatively affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

The recent credit crisis and turmoil in the global financial system may have an impact on our business and our financial condition, and Canal may face challenges if conditions in the financial markets do not improve. Canal’s stockyard customers, tenants and potential purchasers of our art inventory and real estate property may require access to substantial financing. If they are not able to obtain adequate financing in a timely manner, our future revenues could be materially adversely affected. In addition, these economic conditions also impact levels of consumer spending, which have recently deteriorated significantly and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future. Both the real estate and art markets generally decline during recessionary periods and other periods where disposable income is adversely affected. If demand for our products fluctuates as a result of economic conditions or otherwise, our revenue and gross margin could be harmed.

In order to grow at the pace expected by management, we will require additional capital to support our long-term growth strategies. If we are unable to obtain additional capital in future years, we may be unable to proceed with our plans and we may be forced to curtail our operations.

Canal’s cash flow position has been under significant strain for the past several years. Canal continues to closely monitor and reduce where possible its operating expenses and plans to continue its program to sell the property it holds for development or resale as well as to reduce the level of its art inventories to enhance current cash flows. Management is unsure if its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program and planned reduction of its antiquities art inventory will enable it to finance its future business activities. There can be no assurance that Canal will be able to effectuate its planned antiquities art inventory reductions or that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program will be sufficient to fund operating cash requirements. As of the date of this report, Canal has sold its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (used in stockyard operations), two of its three remaining rental properties and its stockyard operations, including the 30 acres of land and the improvements thereon located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal may, as it has in the past, be forced to sell income producing assets to raise needed cash, thereby, further adversely impacting future revenues.

7


We may not be able to identify or fully capitalize on any appropriate business opportunities.

We are undertaking efforts to identify appropriate business opportunities for our Company. If for some reason the Company is not able to identify an acceptable business opportunity within a reasonable period of time, it may not have sufficient resources to continue meeting its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other obligations which arise from its minimal operations. This in turn would severely diminish the ability of the Company to explore alternative business opportunities.

Even if we are able to identify business opportunities that our Board deems appropriate, we cannot assure you that such a strategy will provide you with a positive return on your investment, and may in fact result in a substantial decrease in the value of your stock. In addition, if the Board identifies a business opportunity that it deems appropriate, there is no guarantee that the Company could raise the additional capital or get the needed financing to pursue the business opportunity. These factors will substantially increase the uncertainty, and thus the risk, of investing in our shares.

Our inability to attract tenants would result in an adverse impact on our business and operations.

Real estate activities in general may involve various degrees of risk, such as competition for tenants, general market conditions and interest rates. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that Canal will be successful in the lease or sale of its real estate properties. As of the date of this report, Canal has one remaining rental property (located in Omaha, Nebraska which generates rental income of approximately $100,000 per year), two acres of vacant land and a small inventory of antiquity art. The lease on our one remaining real estate property has been renewed effective October 31, 2012 with an initial term of ten years.

Our inability to attract buyers for our remaining art inventory would have an adverse impact on results of operations.

Selling art in general involves various degrees of risk. Canal’s success in selling its art inventory is dependent at least in part, on general economic conditions, including supply, demand, international monetary conditions and inflation. As of the date of this report, Canal has sold one piece of antiquity art at a small loss. As of October 31, 2011, Canal has written down its remaining art inventory by approximately $70,000 to an estimated net realizable value for the remaining six pieces of $10,000. There is no guarantee that Canal will be able to sell its remaining art inventory.

8


The loss of any key executive or our failure to attract and retain key personnel could adversely affect our future performance, strategic plans and other objectives.

The loss or failure to attract and retain key personnel could significantly impede our future performance, including product development, strategic plans, marketing and other objectives. Our success depends to a substantial extent not only on the ability and experience of our senior management but particularly upon Asher B. Edelman, our Board Chairman, Michael E. Schultz, our Chief Executive Officer and Reginald Schauder, our Chief Financial Officer. We do not currently have in place key man life insurance for these executive officers. To the extent that the services of these officers would be unavailable to us, we would be required to recruit other persons to perform the duties performed by them. We may be unable to employ other qualified persons with the appropriate background and expertise to replace these officers and directors on terms suitable to us.

We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal controls over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls attested to by our independent auditors.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or Sox 404, the SEC adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports, including Form 10-K and a report of our management is included under Item 9A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of October 31, 2009, due, we believe, primarily to the fact that we have limited personnel and funds available for continuous legal and accounting counsel as it pertains to our filing requirements with the SEC. As a result, we have not filed audited financial reports since our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008. Additionally, in our annual reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 there was a lack of adequate controls over the recording of gains on sales of properties and other transactions that constituted a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of curing this deficiency commencing with the preparation and filing of this annual report in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements, however, we can provide no assurance that these efforts will result in our management determination that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective for any subsequent period.

Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could result in our not being able to accurately report our financial results, prevent or detect fraud or provide timely and reliable financial and other information pursuant to the reporting obligations we have as a public company, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, it could cause our investors to lose confidence in the information we report, which could adversely affect our stock price. In the event that we cannot remediate any identified significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls in a timely manner, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK

Our common stock is quoted on the grey markets which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

Our common stock was previously quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board but is now being quoted on the over-the-counter electronic quotation system maintained by The OTC Markets, LLC, with a “yield” alert to indicate the unavailability of recent financial information. We plan to cure our filing deficiency which we expect will reinstate our common stock to the OTC’s fully reporting company tier. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to quickly cure our filing deficiency with the SEC or maintain our status as a reporting company in the future. The status of our quotation may result in a less liquid market available to existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

We may be subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is a “penny stock” and is subject to rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may effect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market, thus possibly making it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

10


For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to support the Company’s cash flow, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn any investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board deems relevant.

ITEM 2. Properties

New York Headquarters - Canal’s New York operations are now located in the personal residence of its Chief Financial Officer and consist of approximately 200 square feet of office space in Port Jefferson Station, New York.

Canal's real estate properties located in four Midwest states are primarily associated with its current and former stockyards operations. Each property consists, for the most part, of land and structures leased to third parties (meat packing facilities, rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses), an Exchange Building (commercial office space) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. In addition to selling what was excess stockyard property, the company entertains any offers to purchase, develop and restructure the real estate properties currently under operating leases, stockyard operating property and property held for development or resale in order to support cash flow and to enhance the value of the existing properties and surrounding real estate. As landlord, Canal's management responsibilities include leasing, billing, repairs and maintenance and overseeing the day to day operations of its properties.

Canal's properties at October 31, 2011 include:

(2) For information with respect to mortgages and pledges see Note 4.
(3) For information related to property held for development see Note 3(B).

As of the date of this report, Canal has sold its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (formerly used in stockyards operations), two of its three remaining rental properties and its stockyard operations, including the 30 acres of land and the improvements thereon located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal may, as it has in the past, be forced to sell income producing assets to raised needed cash, thereby adversely impacting future revenues.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

Environmental Protection Agency

In 1989, the Company sold its 48 acre Portland, Oregon stockyard to Oregon Waste Systems, Inc. On September 29, 2003, the United States Environmental Agency (EPA) placed a 4.2 acre portion of that property on the National Priorities List pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as the Superfund Act. In a letter from the EPA dated June 27, 2005 the Company, along with approximately 13 other parties, including the current owner and operator of the site, was notified that it might be liable to perform or pay for the remediation of environmental contamination found on and around the site.

Since the receipt of the letter, the Company has been in periodic communications with the other parties who received a similar letter with respect to what action, collectively or individually, should be taken in response to the EPA assertion of liability. The Company believes that the remediation of contamination of the site is properly the responsibility of other parties that have occupied and used it for waste recycling purposes since 1961, although under CERCLA the EPA is able to assert joint and several liability against all parties who ever owned or operated the site or generated or transported wastes to it. The EPA investigation is in its preliminary stages and the Company intends to vigorously defend any liability for remediation. At October 31, 2011, the liability for remediation, if any, was not estimatable and therefore no accrual has been recorded in the financial statements.

We are currently not aware of any other legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

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

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains certain forward-looking information. See “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for certain information concerning those forward-looking statements. Our financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Overview of the Company’s Business

Canal Capital Corporation engages in real estate and stockyard operations in the Midwest section of the United States. Canal, along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Omaha Livestock Market, Inc. and Sioux Falls Stockyards Company, is involved in the management, and sale of its real estate properties and the operation of a central public stockyard. Canal also sells antiquities through independent art dealers and at public art auctions through its wholly owned subsidiary, Canal Arts Corporation.

As of October 31, 2011, Canal's real estate properties are located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri and Omaha, Nebraska. Canal sold all of the property it owned in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in September 2010. The properties consist, for the most part, of land and structures leased to third parties (rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. Canal owns approximately 2 acres of undeveloped land in Sioux City, Iowa and it operates a central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal’s stockyard provides various services and facilities required to operate an independent market for the sale of livestock including veterinary facilities, auction arenas, auctioneers, weight masters and scales, feed and bedding facilities and security personnel. Canal also offers other services, such as pure bred and other specialty sales for producer organizations.

Recent Developments

Due to cash flow constraints, the Company has entered a program of closely monitoring and reducing where possible its operating expenses. As part of that program, the Company has sold most of its property and has reduced the level of its art inventories to enhance cash flows. As of the date of this report, the Company has sold its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (formerly used in stockyard operations), two of its three remaining rental properties and its stockyard operations, including the 30 acres of land and the improvements thereon located in St. Joseph, Missouri. The Company’s only remaining real estate property is a rental property located in Omaha, Nebraska.

As a result of past financial constraints, the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, and for the interim fiscal quarters have not been audited or reviewed by an independent auditor. In February 2012, the Company received notice from the SEC of its obligation to file audited and reviewed financial statements with its periodic reports and this is the first in a series of corrective filings which the Company expects to file in order to comply with the SEC’s request. The Company expects to be fully compliant on or about March 31, 2013.

Plan or Operations

We are undertaking efforts to identify appropriate business opportunities for our Company. If for some reason the Company is not able to identify an acceptable business opportunity within a reasonable period of time, it may not have sufficient resources to continue meeting its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other obligations which arise from its minimal operations. This in turn would severely diminish the ability of the Company to explore alternative business opportunities.

Even if we are able to identify business opportunities that our Board deems appropriate, we cannot assure you that such a strategy will provide you with a positive return on your investment, and may in fact result in a substantial decrease in the value of your stock. In addition, if the Board identifies a business opportunity that it deems appropriate, there is no guarantee that the Company could raise the additional capital or get the needed financing to pursue the business opportunity. These factors will substantially increase the uncertainty, and thus the risk, of investing in our shares.

Revenues

At October 31, 2011, Canal's revenues from continuing operations consist of revenues from its real estate and stockyard operations. Canal’s revenues in 2011 decreased by $2.3 million to $2.0 million as compared with 2010 revenues of $4.3 million. The fiscal 2011 decrease in revenues is due primarily to the $2.0 million decrease in sales of real estate, combined with a $0.3 million decrease in stockyard revenues. The fiscal 2010 decrease in revenues is due primarily to the $0.6 million decrease in revenues from stockyard operations offset to a certain extent by the $0.3 million increase in sales of real estate.

Real estate revenues for 2011 of $0.3 million accounted for 13.3% of the 2011 total revenues as compared to revenues of $2.3 million or 53.3% for 2010. Real estate revenues are comprised of sale of real estate (0.0% and 87.5%), rentals and other lease income from the rental of vacant land and certain structures (100.0% and 11.8%) and rental income from commercial office space in its Exchange Buildings (0.0% and 1.7%) for 2011 and 2010, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons are due primarily to the $2.0 million decrease in sales of real estate for fiscal 2011.

18


Stockyard revenues for 2011 of $1.8 million accounted for 86.7% of the 2011 total revenues as compared to revenues of $2.0 million or 46.7% for 2010. Stockyard revenues are comprised of yard handling and auction (87.0% and 82.9%), feed and bedding income (6.0% and 5.0%), rental and other income (7.0% and 12.1%) for 2011 and 2010, respectively. The 2011 increase in stockyard revenues as a percent of total revenues is due primarily to the $2.0 decrease in sales of real estate in fiscal 2011. There were no other significant percentage variations in the year to year comparisons.

Art Revenues: Art revenues are comprised of the proceeds from the sale of art. In fiscal 2011 Canal sold one piece of antiquity art for $12,000 with a cost of $20,000 generating an operating loss of $8,000. There were no art sales or expenses in fiscal 2010. Additionally, in fiscal 2011 the Company wrote down its remaining art inventory by $71,000, thereby, reducing the inventory to its estimated net realizable value. It is the Company’s policy to use the adjusted carrying value for sales, thereby reducing the valuation reserve proportionately as the inventory is sold.

Expenses

Real estate expenses for 2011 of $0.1 million decreased by $0.7 million (93.3%) from $0.7 million in 2010. Real estate expenses are comprised of cost of real estate sold (0.0% and 89.3%), labor, operating and maintenance (16.9% and 2.8%), depreciation and amortization (38.9% and 2.6%), taxes other than income taxes (26.3% and 2.5%), and general and administrative expenses (17.9% and 2.5%) for 2011 and 2010, respectively. The percentage variations in the year to year comparisons of the other real estate operating expenses is due to the sharp decrease in cost of real estate sold in fiscal 2011.

Stockyard expenses for 2011 of $1.6 million decreased by $0.2 million (10.7%) from $1.8 million in 2010. Stockyard expenses are comprised of labor and related costs (45.1% and 42.9%), operating and maintenance (26.4% and 27.0%), feed and bedding expense (4.8% and 4.6%), depreciation and amortization (1.3% and 0.7%), taxes other than income taxes (4.0% and 8.1%) and general and administrative expenses (18.4% and 16.7%) for 2011 and 2010, respectively. There were no significant percentage variations in the year to year comparisons.

Art Expenses: Art expenses are comprised of the cost of inventory sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. In fiscal 2011 Canal sold one piece of antiquity art for $12,000 with a cost of $20,000 generating an operating loss of $8,000. There were no art expenses in fiscal 2010. Additionally, in fiscal 2011 the Company wrote down its remaining art inventory by $71,000, thereby, reducing the inventory to its estimated net realizable value.

19


General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses for 2011 of $0.9 million were virtually unchanged from $0.9 million in 2010. The major components of general and administrative expenses are officers salaries (48.9% and 53.2%),pension expense (10.5% and 12.1%), insurance expense (8.3% and 8.3%), office salaries (9.7% and 9.8%), travel expense (1.6% and 3.9%)and legal fees (2.7% and 2.7%) for 2011 and 2010, respectively. There were no other significant percentage variations in the year to year comparisons.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for 2011 of $85,000 decreased by $41,000 (32.6%) from $126,000 in 2010. The 2011 decrease is due primarily to the $145,000 decrease in long-term debt outstanding at the end of fiscal 2010. At October 31, 2011 the outstanding balance of these notes was $847,000.

At October 31, 2011, all of Canal’s Long-Term Debt is held by the company’s Chief Executive Officer. These notes pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum and come due May 15, 2015. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of $85,000 and $126,000 for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At various times during fiscal 2011, the holder of these notes agreed to defer interest payments. This deferred interest liability accrued additional interest at a rate of 10% per annum, while outstanding and will be repaid as funds become available in fiscal 2012. As of October 31, 2011, the balance due under these notes was $847,000, all of which is classified as long-term debt related party.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income of $13,000 for 2011 decreased $3,000 (16.8%) from $16,000 in fiscal 2010. Interest and other income is primarily comprised of dividend and interest income.

Net Income

Canal recognized a net loss of $0.7 million for 2011 as compared to the 2010 net income of $0.5 million. After recognition of preferred stock dividend payments (accrued or paid in additional shares of preferred stock for each of fiscal 2011 and 2010 of $0 in 2011 and $12,000 in 2010, the results attributable to common stockholders was virtually unchanged. Canal’s 2011 net loss of $0.7 million was due primarily to the lack of real estate sales in fiscal 2011 as compared to fiscal 2010 when Canal sold a piece of property which generated operating income of $0.7 million. Canal’s 2010 net income of $0.5 million was due primarily to the sale of its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (thirty acres formerly used in stockyard operations) $2.0 million, generating a gain of $1.2 million.

20


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents of $36,000 at October 31, 2011 decreased $474,000 from $510,000 at October 31, 2010. Net cash used by operations in fiscal 2011 was $0.4 million. At October 31, 2011 the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets by approximately $0.1 million which represented a decrease of $0.5 million over October 31, 2010 when current assets exceeded current liabilities by approximately $0.4 million.

While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As discussed above, Canal’s cash flow position has been under significant strain for the past several years. Canal continues to closely monitor and reduce where possible its operating expenses and plans to continue its program to develop or sell the property it holds for development or resale as well as to reduce the level of its art inventories to enhance current cash flows. Management is unsure if its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program and planned reduction of its antiquities art inventory will enable it to finance its current business activities. There can be no assurance that Canal will be able to effectuate its planned antiquities art inventory reductions or that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program in itself will be sufficient to fund operating cash requirements.

Obligations Under Material Contracts

At October 31, 2011, all of the Company’s Long-Term Debt is held by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. These notes which pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum and come due May 15, 2015. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of $85,000 and $126,000 for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At various times during fiscal 2011 the holder of these notes agreed to defer interest payments. This deferred interest liability accrued additional interest at a rate of 10% per annum, while outstanding and will be repaid as funds become available in fiscal 2012. These notes, among other things, prohibit Canal from becoming an investment company as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, restricts Canal’s ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock, and require principal prepayments to be made only out of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets. As of October 31, 2011, the balance due under these notes was $847,000, all of which is classified as long-term debt-related party. As of the filing of this report, the balance due under these notes was $400,000.

21


We are currently not party to any other material agreements, that impose any payment obligation, whether in cash or securities, on the Company now or in the future.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06"). ASU 2010-06 requires reporting entities to provide information about movements of assets among Levels 1 and 2 of the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820. The guidance is effective for any fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2010 and should be used for quarterly and annual filings. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2010-06 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04"). This update amends ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure.” ASU 2011-04 clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. ASU 2011-04 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The new guidance is to be adopted prospectively and early adoption is not permitted. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05"). This update amends ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” to provide that total comprehensive income will be reported in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements of financial performance. Presentation of total comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity or the footnotes will no longer be allowed. The calculation of net income and basic and diluted net income per share will not be affected. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Retrospective adoption is required and early adoption is permitted. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These generally accepted accounting principles require 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 net sales and expenses during the reporting period. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, income taxes, fixed assets, restructuring, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

22


Management believes the following critical accounting policies impact our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a further discussion of these and other accounting policies, please see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition –- Lease and rental revenues are recognized ratably over the period covered. All real estate leases are accounted for as operating leases. Revenues from real estate sales are recognized generally when title to the property passes. Revenues from stockyard operations which consist primarily of yardage fees (a standard per head charge for each animal sold through the stockyards) and sale of feed and bedding are recognized at the time the service is rendered or the feed and bedding are delivered.

Art Inventory –- Inventory of art consisting of antiquities only as of October 31, 2011 is valued at the lower of cost, including direct acquisition and restoration expenses, or net realizable value on a specific identification basis. The nature of art makes it difficult to determine a replacement value. The most compelling evidence of a value in most cases is an independent appraisal. For fiscal 2011 the net realizable value of Canals remaining art inventory has been estimated by management based in part on the Company’s history of art sales in previous years and in part on the results of the independent appraisals done in previous years. However, because of the nature of art inventory, such determination is very subjective and, therefore, the estimated values could differ significantly from the amount ultimately realized.

Properties and Related Depreciation -- Properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties. Such lives are estimated from 35 to 40 years for buildings and from 5 to 20 years for improvements and equipment.

Property held for Development or Resale -- Property held for development or resale consist of approximately 2 acres, located in the Midwest of undeveloped land, not currently utilized for corporate purposes nor included in any of the present operating leases. The Company constantly evaluates proposals received for the purchase, leasing or development of this asset.

23


Long-Lived Assets -– The Company reviews the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. The measurement of the loss, if any, will be calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Seasonality

Our operations and operating cash flows were subject to seasonal variations. Stockyard operations were seasonal, with greater volume generally experienced during the first and second quarters of each fiscal year during which periods livestock is generally brought to market. As of the date of this report, the Company is no longer in the stockyard business and therefore its operations and operating cash flows are no longer subject to seasonal variations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

For the year ended October 31, 2011, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act Reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael E. Schultz, and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Reginald Schauder, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2011. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Messrs. Schultz and Schauder determined that because of the material weaknesses described below, as of October 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that:

- pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

- provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

- provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

25


Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2011. In making this assessment, management used a framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, as of October 31, 2011, due, we believe, primarily to the fact that we have limited personnel and funds available for continuous legal and accounting counsel as it pertains to our filing requirements with the SEC. As a result, since its annual report for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, the Company submitted its annual and quarterly financial statements in filings to the SEC without the benefit of the audit, and review, as applicable, by an independent public accounting firm. Additionally, in our annual reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 there was a lack of adequate controls over the recording of gains on sales of properties and other transactions, that constituted a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

In an effort to remediate this material weakness, our management has appointed qualified personnel and has engaged the Company’s auditors to conduct reviews and audits as applicable, of its financial statements for the non-compliant periods. The Company expects that the filing of this annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010 will be another step in curing this deficiency with the SEC. Our management does not believe that this material weakness had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations or caused our financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, included in this report, to contain material misstatement.

Because the Company is a smaller reporting company, this annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

We have no information to disclose that was required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, but was not reported.

Board Composition and Committees

Our board of directors currently consists of two members Asher B. Edelman and Michael E. Schultz. Mr. Edelman serves on our board of directors as an “independent director” as defined by Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules. Due to the limited number of directors, the creation of numerous independent committees is not feasible. During fiscal 2011, the Board of Directors held one meeting.

Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under U.S. securities laws, directors, certain executive officers and persons holding more than 10% of our common stock must report their initial ownership of the common stock, and any changes in that ownership, to the SEC. The SEC has designated specific due dates for these reports. As at October 31, 2011, all of our officers and directors had submitted their required reports.

29


Code of Ethics and Conduct

Our Board of Directors has adopted a written Code of Business Ethics and Conduct that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer.

Retirement Plans

The Canal Capital Corporation Retirement Plan (the "Retirement Plan") provides benefits to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Directors who are not employees are not eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan. The Retirement Plan is administered by the Company.

All Company contributions under the Retirement Plan were deposited with an insurance company and invested in a group annuity contract through May 30, 1985. Thereafter, all Company contributions have been held in trust under a Trust Agreement between the Company and the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, as trustee. Contributions to the Retirement Plan are determined on an actuarial basis, without individual allocation.

In October 1991, each of three executive officers of the Company voluntarily withdrew from participation in the Retirement Plan. As a result of prior service, Messrs. Edelman and Schauder have deferred monthly accumulated benefits of approximately $1,900 and $600, respectively, as of October 31, 2011. Mr. Schultz has no benefit under the Retirement Plan. For further information on the Retirement Plan (see Note 17).

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

The Company maintains an option plan for the benefit of directors of the Company -- the 1985 Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "1985 Plan"), which was approved by the stockholders of the Company on March 12, 1986. Pursuant to the 1985 Plan, a maximum of 264,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company have been reserved for issuance to directors and members of the Executive Committee of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Options granted under the 1985 Plan are non-qualified stock options and have an exercise price equal to 100% of fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. The options may be exercised no earlier than one year from the date of grant and no later than ten years after the date of grant. Under the 1985 Plan, options covering 22,000 shares are automatically granted to each new director upon the effective date of his election to office and options covering 5,500 shares are automatically granted to each new member of the Executive Committee upon the effective date of his appointment to office.

During the 2011 fiscal year, no options under the 1985 plan were granted and no options previously granted were exercised. At October 31, 2011, there were no options outstanding under the 1985 Plan.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Except with respect to the options granted under the 1985 Plan (if any) as discussed above, directors who are not officers of the Company (if any) do not receive cash compensation for service as Directors. Directors are reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending Board and Committee meetings, including those for travel, food and lodging. There have been no expense reimbursements made in the past two years.

In connection with the Company's investment activities, if any, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, through Mr. Edelman, has the authority to invest funds of the Company in securities of other companies.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Canal Capital Corporation:
Port Jefferson Station, NY

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Canal Capital Corporation (the “Company”) as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Canal Capital Corporation as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Canal Capital Corporation ("Canal"), incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1964, commenced business operations through a predecessor in 1936.

Going Concern - While the Company is currently operating as a going concern, certain significant factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is obligated to continue making substantial annual contributions to its defined benefit pension plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of these uncertainties. Additionally, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Canal’s cash flow position has been under significant strain under the past several years. Canal continues to closely monitor and reduce, where possible, its operating expenses and plans to continue its program to develop or sell the property it holds for development or resale as well as to reduce the level of its antiquities art inventories to enhance current cash flows. Management is unsure if its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program and planned reduction of its antiquities art inventory will enable it to finance its future business activities. There can be no assurance that Canal will be able to effectuate its planned antiquities art inventory reductions or that its income from operations combined with its cost cutting program in itself will be sufficient to fund operating cash requirements. Canal may, as it has in the past, be forced to sell incoming producing assets to raise needed cash, thereby, further adversely impacting future revenues. As of the date of this report Canal has sold its Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (formerly used in stockyard operations); two of its three remaining rental properties and its stockyard operations (30 acres of land and the improvements thereon) located in St. Joseph, Missouri.

F-9



CANAL CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Canal is engaged in two distinct businesses - real estate and stockyard operations.

Real Estate Operations - Canal's real estate properties are located in Sioux City, Iowa, South St Paul, Minnesota, St Joseph, Missouri and Omaha, Nebraska. Canal sold all of the property it owned in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in September 2010. The properties consist, for the most part, of land and structures leased to third parties (rail car repair shops, lumber yards and various other commercial and retail businesses) as well as vacant land available for development or resale. Its principal real estate operating revenues are derived from lease income from land and structures leased to various commercial and retail enterprises, and proceeds from the sale of real estate properties.

Stockyard Operations - Canal currently operates one central public stockyard located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Canal closed the stockyard it operated in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in December 2009(collectively the “Stockyards”).

Sioux Falls Stockyard Closure - In December 2009, after extensive efforts to reorganize and return our Sioux Falls, South Dakota stockyard to profitability, we ceased its stockyard operations and leased an approximately 10 acre portion of the property, on a month to month basis, to a group that formerly operated at the stockyards as an independent commission firm. In September 2010, we sold the entire Sioux Falls, South Dakota property (approximately 35 acres of land and improvements) for $2.0 million, which generated a gain of $1.2 million.

Public stockyards act much like a securities exchange, providing markets for all categories of livestock and fulfilling the economic functions of assembly, grading, and price discovery. The livestock handled by the Company’s stockyards include cattle, hogs, and sheep. Cattle and hogs may come through the stockyard facilities at two different stages, either as feeder livestock or slaughter livestock. The Company’s stockyards provide all services and facilities required to operate an independent market for the sale of livestock, including veterinary facilities, auction arenas, auctioneers, weigh masters and scales, feed and bedding, and security personnel. In addition, the stockyards provide other services including pure bred and other specialty sales for producer organizations. The Company promotes its stockyard business through public relations efforts, advertising, and personal solicitation of producers.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

A) Principles of Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Canal Capital Corporation ("Canal") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“the Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

B) Properties and Related Depreciation -- Properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties. Such lives are estimated from 35 to 40 years for buildings and from 5 to 20 years for improvements and equipment.

Property held for Development or Resale -- Property held for development or resale consists of approximately 2 acres located in the midwest of undeveloped land not currently utilized for corporate purposes nor included in any of the present operating leases. The Company constantly evaluates proposals received for the purchase, leasing or development of this asset. The land is valued at cost which does not exceed the net realizable value.

Long-Lived Assets – The Company reviews the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. The measurement of the loss, if any, will be calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. When properties are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in current income.

C) Income Taxes -- Canal and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.

The Company follows the uncertainty in income taxes guidance, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

F-12



CANAL CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company files income tax returns in several jurisdictions. The Company’s tax returns remain subject to examination, by major jurisdiction, as follows:

  Federal 2011 and beyond
  New York State 2011 and beyond
  Minnesota State 2011 and beyond
  Missouri State 2011 and beyond
  Nebraska State 2011 and beyond
  Iowa State 2011 and beyond

D) Accounting Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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) Art Inventory Held for Sale - Inventory of art consisting of antiquities is valued at the lower of cost, including direct acquisition and restoration expenses, or net realizable value on a specific identification basis. The nature of art makes it difficult to determine a replacement value. The most compelling evidence of a value in most cases is an independent appraisal. For fiscal 2011 the net realizable value of Canals remaining art inventory has been estimated by management based in part on the Company’s history of art sales in previous years and in part on the results of the independent appraisals done in previous years. However, because of the nature of art inventory, such determination is very subjective and, therefore, the estimated values could differ significantly from the amount ultimately realized.

F) Stockyard Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

G) Revenue Recognition –- Lease and rental revenues are recognized ratably over the period covered. All real estate leases are accounted for as operating leases. Revenues from real estate sales are recognized generally when title to the property passes. Revenues from stockyard operations which consist primarily of yardage fees (a standard per head charge for each animal sold through the stockyards) and sale of feed and bedding are recognized at the time the service is rendered or the feed and bedding are delivered.

Other Income (Expense) Items -- Art sales are recognized using the specific identification method, when the piece is shipped to the purchaser.

H) Comprehensive Income (Loss) -- The Company’s only adjustments for each classification of the comprehensive income was for minimum pension liability.

F-13



 CANAL CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED

I) Statements of Cash Flows -- The company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

J) Earnings (Loss) Per Share -- Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common shares by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusts basic earnings (loss) per share for the effects of convertible securities, stock options and other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the period in which such effect is dilutive. There were no dilutive securities in any of the periods presented herein.

The shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options are excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share as their effect would be antidilutive.

K) Recent Accounting Pronouncements –- In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06"). ASU 2010-06 requires reporting entities to provide information about movements of assets among Levels 1 and 2 of the three-tier fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820. The guidance is effective for any fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2010 and should be used for quarterly and annual filings. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2010-06 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04"). This update amends ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure.” ASU 2011-04 clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. ASU 2011-04 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The new guidance is to be adopted prospectively and early adoption is not permitted. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05"). This update amends ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” to provide that total comprehensive income will be reported in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements of financial performance. Presentation of total comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity or the footnotes will no longer be allowed. The calculation of net income and basic and diluted net income per share will not be affected. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Retrospective adoption is required and early adoption is permitted. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

RELATED PARTY DEBT

The Company’s mortgage notes (originally issued in 1998) are due May 15, 2015 and are held entirely by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. These notes currently carry interest at the rate of ten percent per annum. These notes, among other things, prohibit Canal from becoming an investment company as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940; require Canal to maintain minimum net worth; restrict Canal’s ability to pay cash dividends or repurchase stock and require principal prepayments to be made only out of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets. As of October 31, 2011, the balance due under these notes was $847,000, all of which is classified as long-term debt-related party. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of approximately $85,000 and $126,000 for the years ended October 31, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

At October 31, 2011, substantially all of Canal's real properties, the stock of certain subsidiaries and its art inventories are pledged as collateral for the following obligations:

The Company has a line of credit with HNB Bank in the amount of $250,000. This credit line is used in the Company’s Saint Joseph stockyard order buying operation. The outstanding balances on this line of credit are secured by either the livestock purchased on order or the associated receivable for the livestock that has been delivered to the purchaser.

The outstanding balances on this credit line were $106,000 and $154,000 at October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

INCOME TAXES

Significant components of the Company’s deferred asset/(liability) as of October 31, 2011 and 2010 include differences in depreciation methods, inventory valuation allowance and net operating loss carryforward:

    2011     2010  
Total Gross Deferred Tax assets $  3,368,000   $  4,179,000  
Less - Valuation Allowance   (3,368,000 )   (4,179,000 )
Net Deferred Tax Assets $  0   $  0  
Total Gross Deferred Tax Liability $  0   $  0  
Net Deferred Tax Asset (Liability) $  0   $  0  

Actual income tax (benefit) expense differs from the “expected” tax expense computed by applying the U.S. federal corporate tax rate of 34% to income(loss) before income taxes as follows:

    2011     2010  
             
Computed Expected Tax (Benefit)Expense $  (228,000 ) $  (201,000 )
Change in Valuation Allowance   228,000     201,000  
   Other   0     0  
             
  $  0   $  0  

At October 31, 2011, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9,116,000 that expire through 2031. For financial statement purposes, a valuation allowance has been provided to offset the net deferred tax assets due to the cumulative net operating losses incurred during recent years. Such allowance increased (decreased) by approximately $(222,000)and $(609,000) during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if, in the opinion of management, significant positive evidence exists which indicates that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize its deferred tax assets.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

Under Canal's 1984 Employee and 1985 Directors Stock Option Plans, 550,000 and 264,000 shares, respectively, of Canal's common stock have been reserved for option grants. The purchase price of shares subject to each option granted, under the Employee and Directors Plans, will not be less than 85% and 100%, respectively, of their fair market value at the date of grant. Options granted under both plans are exercisable for 10 years from the date of grant, but no option will be exercisable earlier than one year from the date of grant. Under the Employee Plan, stock appreciation rights may be granted in connection with stock options, either at the time of grant of the options or at any time thereafter. No stock appreciation rights have been granted under this plan. There were no options outstanding under either of these plans at October 31, 2011 or 2010.

7.

ART INVENTORY HELD FOR SALE

Antiquities art represented 100% of total art inventory at both October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $416,000 and $396,000 against its inventory to reduce it, to reflect management’s estimate, of its net realizable value at October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, based on the history of losses sustained on inventory items sold in the current and previous years. During fiscal 2011, Canal sold one piece of antiquity art for $12,000 generating a loss of $8,000 and recorded a $70,500 impairment charge. There were no art sales in fiscal 2010.

Restricted Cash

Transit Insurance - Transit insurance covers livestock for the period that they are physically at the stockyards and under the care of stockyard personnel. This self insurance program is funded by a per head charge on all livestock received at the stockyard. The October 31, 2011 balance in restricted cash- transit insurance of approximately $35,000 represents the excess of per head fees charged over actual payments made for livestock that was injured or died while at the stockyards.

Letter of Credit - This is a $140,000 deposit with HNB to secure a Letter of Credit issued by the bank for bonds issued in relation to the St. Joseph Stockyards clearing operation. This deposit is maintained in an interest bearing account.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE AND DIVIDENDS PAID

During each of the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no options outstanding. There were no dividends declared on common stock during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010. There were no dividends declared on preferred stock during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common share outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common stock had been reported in the financial statements.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

Environmental Protection Agency

In 1989, the Company sold its 48 acre Portland, Oregon stockyard to Oregon Waste Systems, Inc. On September 29, 2003, the United States Environmental Agency (EPA) placed a 4.2 acre portion of that property on the National Priorities List pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as the Superfund Act. In a letter from the EPA dated June 27, 2005 the Company, along with approximately 13 other parties, including the current owner and operator of the site, was notified that it might be liable to perform or pay for the remediation of environmental contamination found on and around the site.

Since the receipt of the letter, the Company has been in periodic communications with the other parties who received a similar letter with respect to what action, collectively or individually, should be taken in response to the EPA assertion of liability. The Company believes that the remediation of contamination of the site is properly the responsibility of other parties that have occupied and used it for waste recycling purposes since 1961, although under CERCLA the EPA is able to assert joint and several liability against all parties who ever owned or operated the site or generated or transported wastes to it. The EPA investigation is in its preliminary stages and the Company intends to vigorously defend any liability for remediation. At October 31, 2011, the liability for remediation, if any, was not estimatable and therefore no accrual has been recorded in the financial statements.

We are currently not aware of any other legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

PREFERRED STOCK ISSUANCE

On October 15, 1986 Canal exchanged 986,865 shares of its $1.30 Exchangeable Preferred Stock ("the Preferred Stock") for a like amount of its outstanding common stock. Since the exchange, the Company has issued an additional 9,108,015 shares in the form of stock dividends and in October 2003 the Company, repurchased for retirement, 992,225 shares (from an affiliate) at $0.10 per share resulting in a total outstanding at October 31, 2011 of 9,102,655. All of the Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.01 per share and a liquidation preference of $10 per share. The Preferred Stock is subject to optional redemption, in exchange for Canal's 13% Subordinated Notes, by Canal, in whole or in part at any time on or after September 30, 1988 at the redemption price of $10 per share. Dividends on the Preferred Stock accrue at an annual rate of $1.30 per share and are cumulative. Dividends are payable quarterly in cash or in Preferred Stock at Canal's option. To date, dividends paid in additional stock have resulted in the issuance of 9,108,015 shares which were recorded at their fair value at the time of issuance.

Canal is restricted from paying cash dividends by certain of its debt agreements (See Note 5). The last cash dividend paid on Canal's preferred stock was in September 1989. The last dividend payment (which was paid in additional stock) was for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The dividend payable from July 1, 2006 through October 31, 2011 has been accrued but not paid. Additionally, the dividends payable through December 31, 2011 have been accrued but not paid. This results in the Company being in arrears on its quarterly dividends for eighteen full quarters.

Whenever quarterly dividends payable on the Preferred Stock are in arrears in the aggregate amount at least equal to six full quarterly dividends (which need not be consecutive), the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors of Canal shall be increased by two and the holders of the Preferred Stock shall have, in addition to the rights set forth above, the special right, voting separately as a single class, to elect two directors of Canal to fill such newly created directorships at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders (and at each succeeding annual meeting of shareholders thereafter until such cumulative dividends have been paid in full). The date of the next annual stockholder’s meeting has not yet been determined.

VOTING RIGHTS - The holders of the Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights except that the following actions must be approved by holders of 66 2/3% of the shares of Preferred Stock, voting as a class: (I) any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of Canal which would materially alter the relative rights and preferences of the Preferred Stock so as to adversely affect the holders thereof; and (ii) issuance of securities of any class of Canal's capital stock ranking prior (as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Preferred Stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to specific enforcement of the foregoing covenants and to injunctive relief against any violation thereof.

PENSION PLANS

Canal has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its salaried employees (the "Plan"). The benefits are based on years of service and the employee's compensation earned each year. The Company's funding policy is to contribute the amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has made contributions of approximately $183,000 for fiscal 2011 and $22,000 for fiscal 2010. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date, but also for those expected to be earned in the future. Assets of the plan were invested in U.S. Government securities, common stocks and antiquities. The Company uses an October 31 measurement date for its pension plan.

The following tables set forth the benefit obligations, fair value of plan assets, funded status, and amounts recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheets at October 31, 2011 and 2010.

Equity securities are expected to return 10% to 11% over the long-term, while cash and fixed income is expected to return between 4% to 6%. Based on historical experience, the company expects that the plan’s asset managers will provide a modest (0.5% to 1.0% per annum) premium to their respective market benchmark indices.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At October 31, 2011, all of Canal’s Long-Term Debt is held by the company’s Chief Executive Officer. After year end management negotiated a three year extension of these notes which pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum and come due May 15, 2015. Canal has incurred interest expense on these notes of $85,000 and $126,000 for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At various times during fiscal 2011 certain holders of these notes agreed to defer interest payments. This deferred interest liability accrued additional interest at a rate of 10% per annum, while outstanding and will be repaid as funds become available in fiscal 2012. As of October 31, 2011, the balance due under these notes was $847,000 all of which is classified as long-term debt related party.
