Corporate History
 
The Company was incorporated under the name White Dove Systems, Inc. in December 1992 under the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
Effective December 15, 1999, the Company consummated the acquisition of Neocom Microspecialists, Inc. (“Neocom”) in exchange for 6,782,353 shares of the Company’s common stock for 100% of the outstanding shares of Neocom. Effective upon the closing of the acquisition, the Company issued 4,782,353 shares of its common stock and reserved 2,000,000 shares of common stock to issue on the second anniversary of the acquisition based on certain contingencies related to potential unrecorded liabilities.  As of January 2002, the remaining 2,000,000 shares were issued to the former shareholders of Neocom.  
 
Neocom is an ISP and web development company based in Martinsville, Virginia.  Neocom provides Internet access and other Internet services to its customers in the Southern Virginia area.  Neocom has since changed its name to Sitestar.net, Inc..
 
Effective November 22, 2000, the Company consummated the acquisition of FRE Enterprises, Inc., a Virginia corporation (doing business as “Lynchburg.net” and “Computers by Design”) in exchange for 16,583,980 shares of its common stock for 100% of the outstanding shares of Lynchburg.net. Effective upon the closing of the acquisition, the Company issued 12,437,985 shares of its common stock and reserved 4,145,995 shares of its common stock that the Company had agreed to issue on the third anniversary of the acquisition based on certain contingencies related to potential unrecorded and unknown liabilities.  On the third anniversary, November 22, 2003, there were no contingencies and the shares were issued on that date. The Company used the market price of its common stock at the acquisition date to determine the acquisition price of $2,487,597.
 
Lynchburg.net is an ISP and web development company.  Computers by Design is a computer sales and service company. In addition, Computers by Design has a division that remanufactures ink and toner cartridges under the name of CBD Toner Recharge. This company is based in Lynchburg, Virginia and provides products and services to its customers in the central and southwestern part of Virginia, as well as, nationwide.
 
On July 1, 2001, the Company acquired 100% of the equity and voting interest of Advanced Internet Services, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (“ADVI”).  ADVI is an Internet and computer Service Provider located in Mt. Airy, North Carolina.  The purchase price was $965,980, which consisted of $150,000 in cash, transaction costs of $30,000, 6,021,818 of the Company’s common shares valued at $301,091 and a non-interest bearing promissory note for $1,199,990 (the present value was $484,889) payable in 24 quarterly installments of $51,078.  Due to the non-interest bearing nature of the note, the Company imputed a discount rate of 36% to calculate the present value of the note.  This discount rate was an estimate of the Company’s current cost of capital.  This acquisition included goodwill of $702,642 that was the premium the Company paid to have the opportunity to generate revenues and earnings in this market.
 
Effective October 16, 2002, Sitestar reorganized and the Board named Frank R. Erhartic, Jr. as the new Chairman and CFO to replace Clinton Sallee and Eric Manlunas, who resigned. Mr. Erhartic later entered into a contract with the former management of Sitestar to buy out their shares of the Company to reduce the number of shares outstanding by approximately 32.5%.  Mr. Sallee was retained as a paid consultant for one year.
 
Effective December 31, 2002, the Company acquired the Internet assets and Internet customer list of Digital Data Connections, Inc., a local competitor in Martinsville, Virginia. This deal consisted of a cash payment of $50,000 and a promise to pay a certain percentage of revenues generated by their customers for ten months. The Company also accepted a non-compete agreement restricting competition in the Company’s existing markets for a period of three years.

On June 30, 2004 the Company acquired 100% of the Internet-related assets of Virginia Link Internet and Network Management, Inc., a Virginia corporation and ISP located in Galax, Virginia and Mount Airy Networks, LLC, a North
 
4

 
Carolina limited liability company, an ISP located in Mount Airy, North Carolina. The total purchase price was $226,314, representing the fair value of the assets acquired, less $50,000 for deferred revenues and less a 10% discount, for a purchase price of $176,314 which consisted of a non-interest bearing note payable over 30 months.

Effective August 31, 2004 the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement to sell the assets of Sitestar Applied Technologies (SAT), the software development division of the Company. Thomas Albanese, the former manager of the SAT division, purchased the assets. The new company is subsequently doing business as Servatus Development, LLC. (Servatus). The agreement consisted of Albanese surrendering 1,460,796 shares of the Company’s common stock and the Company receiving a 20% share in the gross revenues of Servatus over a period of four years and maintaining the rights to the crisis management software system that was shortly thereafter completed. The Company provided office space, occupancy costs and Internet services for one year. The Company has recognized a gain from this transaction of $39,484 through the fourth quarter of 2005, representing the excess of the value of the common stock received and the shared revenue over the recorded basis of the assets sold.

Effective November 22, 2004, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement acquiring the internet-related assets of Exchange Computers, Inc. and Exis.net, Inc.. Both are Virginia corporations. The deal consisted of the acquisition of the dial-up customers, the related internet assets and non-compete agreements from the principal officers of the companies. The total purchase was $150,000, representing the fair value of the assets acquired, which consisted of $30,000 in cash at closing and a non-interest bearing promissory note of $120,000 that was payable over twelve months.

Effective September 16, 2005, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement pursuant to which it acquired the Internet related assets of Idacomm, an Idaho corporation. The transaction consisted of the acquisition of the dial-up customers, the related Internet assets and non-compete agreements from company. The total purchase price was $1,698,430 representing the fair value of the assets acquired, less $112,735 for deferred revenues and less a 10% discount, for a net purchase price of $1,545,304 which consisted of a down payment of $250,000 with the balance to be paid by a non-interest bearing note payable over 7 months. The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.  Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of tangible assets acquired was attributed to the customer list and non-compete agreement, which are being amortized over the estimated three-year life and contractual three-year life, respectively.  The value of the customer list was determined by multiplying the current market value per customer times the number of customers purchased at the time of the acquisition.

Effective January 1, 2006, with a closing date of January 6, 2006, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement acquiring the Common Stock of Netrover, Inc. a Canadian corporation. The Definitive Agreement consisted of the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Netrover, Inc.’s stock and a non-compete agreement of the company. The total purchase price was $604,535 which represented the fair value of the stock acquired. The transaction also consisted of a non-interest bearing promissory note of $403,551 payable over twelve months, amortized over twenty four months with a balloon payment in the twelfth month and a down payment consisting of 2,000,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock at Closing.

Sitestar’s Business Strategy
 
The Company’s growth strategy is to expand its business by increasing its customer base, services and coverage area. The Company uses marketing, acquisitions and partnerships to accomplish this. Sitestar’s mission is to increase stockholder value by increasing revenues, consolidating costs and increasing profits, while maintaining superior products and customer service.
 
Key elements of Sitestar’s strategy include:

Increasing the Dial-up Customer Base.  The Company intends to retain its large regional customer base plus continue to expand its services to a broader geographic market. The Company maintains its existing customers by offering them a high quality service at a reasonable price and value-added services such as free anti-virus and spam filtering. To address the broader market potential, the Company has expanded its local coverage areas and has leased infrastructure from its partners which enables the Company to provide service to nearly 100% of the people in the United States and Canada.
 
5


Increasing the Broadband Customer Base.  The Company offers broadband services including ISDN, Landline DSL, Wireless DSL, Satellite DSL and cable access within its regional and national footprint. The Company will increase its regional wireless DSL coverage area through additional towers and relay points of presence. The Company shall continue to expand its market footprint through partnerships. The Company markets Broadband Internet Access through its DSLNOW.COM website and through traditional sales channels.

Increasing the Toner and Ink Cartridge Remanufacturing Business.  Sitestar markets this service under the name CBD Toner Recharge and through its website, RECHARGE.NET. The Company currently offers this service both locally and nationally via mail and internet. The Company intends to increase this business by marketing this cost-saving service by creating affiliate relationships and increasing its use of traditional advertising. 

Increasing the Product Offerings.  The Company shall continue to offer new products and services, as they become available, through its retail stores and to its existing Internet customer base. The Company views Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP), services that allow accepting and originating phone calls through an Internet connection, to be value-added service for both business and residential customers, and is one of the primary new product offerings the Company is currently exploring.

Strategic Relationships and Acquisitions.  The Company has many strategic relationships that allow it to expand its products and services to a wider range of customers. The Company has historically acquired companies, assets and customer bases and intends to continue to consider and execute similar opportunities to help grow its business.

Increasing the Economies of Scale.  As the Company expands, it is committed to managing costs and maximizing efficiencies. To optimize its operations, the Company has leveraged the services offered by competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs) - not offered by local phone companies - to reduce costs and consolidate its network infrastructure. Similarly, the Company has integrated its offices by deploying VOIP services to better utilize its human resources and provide more efficient customer service.
 
Marketing Channels
 
The Company deploys a variety of marketing strategies and tactics to promote its products and services, including print, radio, TV, billboard, Web advertisement, direct mail, affiliate and referral programs. The Company’s portfolio of websites generates new business on a consistent and daily basis. In addition, the Company sells its products to customers who visit its retail store locations.  The Company’s indirect sales channel strategy consists of affiliates such as sales agents, as well as, companies that market and sell the Company’s services under their own brand. To date, the Company’s most effective sales lead generation has been through its customer referral program.

To capture greater market share, the Company has created a new position of Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. Key initiatives include increasing affiliate relationships, partnering with leading national retailers and strategic acquisitions.

Competition
 
The Internet services market is extremely competitive and highly fragmented.  The Company faces competition from numerous types of ISPs, including other national ISPs, and anticipates that competition will only intensify in the future as the ISP industry consolidates and the market becomes further commoditized. The Company believes that the primary competitive factors in the Internet services market include:
 
·  Pricing;
·  Quality and breadth of products and services;
·  Ease of use;
·  Personal customer support and service; and
·  Brand awareness.
 
The Company believes that it competes favorably based on these factors, particularly due to:
 
6

 
·  National brand name;
·  Highly responsive customer support and service;
·  High reliability; and
·  Competitive pricing.
 
The Company currently competes, or expects to compete, with the following types of companies:
 
·  
Local and regional ISPs and Computer Companies;
·  
National Internet Service Providers, such as, AOL Time Warner, MSN (Microsoft Network) and EarthLink;
·  
Local, regional and national broadband providers, such as Adelphia and Cox Communications;
·  
Providers of Web hosting, co-location and other Internet-based business services;
·  
Computer hardware and other technology companies that provide Internet connectivity with their own or other products, including IBM and Microsoft;
·  
National long distance carriers, such as Qwest and Sprint;
·  
Regional Bell operating companies and local telephone companies;
·  
Providers of free or discount Internet service, including United Online;
·  
Terrestrial wireless and satellite ISPs; and
·  
Non-profit or educational ISPs.
 
The Company’s primary competitors include large companies that have substantially greater market presence, brand-name recognition and financial resources than the Company presently enjoys. Secondary competitors include local or regional ISPs that may benefit from greater mindshare within a particular community.

The residential broadband Internet access market is fast-becoming dominated by cable companies and Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) who respectively offer Internet connectivity through the use of cable modems or Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) programs that provide high speed Internet access using the existing copper wire telephone infrastructure. Other alternative service companies provide Internet connectivity via wirelesses terrestrial and satellite-based service technologies. These competitors enjoy the advantage of being able to leverage their existing relationships with customers to promote high-speed Internet services. In addition, they provide incentives for customers to purchase Internet access by offering discounts for bundled service offerings. While the Company is a reseller of DSL services, its profit margin is influenced by the aforementioned threats. Similarly, even though the Company has partnered with cable operators, industry consolidation threatens to displace them. Thus, should the Company be unable to provide technologically competitive service in the marketplace or compete with companies bundling Internet service with their products, its revenues and profit margins may decline.

Additionally, a new dial-up Internet access market segment has been created similar to the discount or “no frills” airlines. These ISPs deliver dial-up Internet access at substantially discounted rates with complimentary spam and virus protection. Unlike traditional service plans, these discount ISPs charge their customers for technical support. Many ISPs have responded in turn by creating similar service and pricing plans and or reducing the cost of their traditional service plans to remain competitively viable. Similarly, a second dial-up market segment has emerged where value-added services including web acceleration, spyware and pop-up ad protection are delivered at a premium price. Thus, the Company believes that if it is unable to compete with lower-cost and premium service providers, its revenues and profit margins may decline.
 
To address these competitive challenges, the Company will continue to distinguish itself by offering competitively priced and packaged products, value-added services and proven customer support. The Company also believes that its ability to respond quickly and adroitly in providing solutions to its customers’ Internet needs will be a key advantage.  

Government Regulations
 
There is currently only a small body of laws and regulations directly applicable to access to or commerce on the Internet. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted at the international, federal, state and local levels with respect to the Internet, covering issues such as user privacy, freedom of expression, pricing, characteristics and quality of products and services, taxation, advertising,
 
7

 
intellectual property rights, information security and the convergence of traditional telecommunications services with Internet communications. Moreover, a number of laws and regulations have been proposed and are currently being considered by federal, state and foreign legislatures with respect to these issues. The nature of any new laws and regulations and the manner in which existing and new laws and regulations may be interpreted and enforced cannot be fully determined.
 
In addition, there is substantial uncertainty as to the applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, copyrights and other intellectual property issues, taxation, libel, obscenity and personal privacy.  The vast majorities of these laws were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and, as a result, did not contemplate the unique issues and environment of the Internet.  Future developments in the law might decrease the growth of the Internet, impose taxes or other costly technical requirements, create uncertainty in the market or in some other manner have an adverse effect on the Internet.  These developments could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 
The Company provides its services through data transmissions over public telephone lines and other facilities provided by telecommunications companies.  These transmissions are subject to regulation by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”), state public utility commissions and foreign governmental authorities. However, the Company is not subject to direct regulation by the FCC or any other governmental agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally. Nevertheless, as Internet services and telecommunications services converge or the services the Company offers expand, there may be increased regulation of its business, including regulation by agencies having jurisdiction over telecommunications services.  Additionally, existing telecommunications regulations affect the Company’s business through regulation of the prices it pays for transmission services, and through regulation of competition in the telecommunications industry.

The FCC has ruled that calls to Internet service providers are jurisdictionally interstate and that ISPs should not pay access charges applicable to telecommunications carriers.  Several telecommunications carriers are advocating that the FCC regulate the Internet in the same manner as other telecommunications services by imposing access fees on ISPs.  The FCC is examining inter-carrier compensation for calls to ISPs, which could affect ISPs' costs and consequently substantially increase the costs of communicating via the Internet.  This increase in costs could slow the growth of Internet use and thereby decrease the demand for the Company’s services.
 
The Company purchases some components of its broadband services from local carriers and from other DSL providers that purchase components from local carriers. In November 1999, the FCC issued a ruling that allowed competitive local phone companies to “line-share” their broadband DSL services over a phone customer’s local phone line. The U.S. Court of Appeals changed this decision in May 2002 and in February 2003, the FCC decided to eliminate “line-sharing” over a three-year phase out. Although the inability to buy these discounted lines could affect a very small part of the Company’s business, it could cause the growth of its broadband business to slow if some of its partners, like Covad Communications Group, Inc., have to pay full-price for their lines.  On the other-hand, however, this may cause less competition in the Company’s local markets where it offers broadband services.
 
Employees
 
As of February 28, 2006, the Company employed twenty two full-time individuals.  Of these, the Company has two in management, two in sales and marketing, six in administration, and twelve technicians.  The Company also employed seven part-time individuals.  Of these, the Company has six technicians and one in administration.  The Company’s employees are not unionized, and it considers its relations with its employees to be favorable.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
 
The Company owns a 12,000 square feet office building in Martinsville, Virginia located at 29 West Main Street, Martinsville, VA 24112, which was acquired along with the acquisition of Neocom.  This facility houses a portion of the Company’s customer service, web design and technical support functions.  Also located here is equipment needed to service many of its customers.  Neocom's principal note holders had a senior lien on the property, which has been lifted. This bank note was payable in monthly principal and interest installments of approximately $6,400 or $76,800 per annum with the balance due September 2003. This note has been refinanced into a term loan and has subsequently been converted to a line of credit, which is used to facilitate the cash flows of the Company.

The Company leases a 7,200 square feet office facility in Lynchburg, Virginia which serves as its corporate office.  Here the Company handles the executive, marketing, corporate accounting functions, customer service, technical support, and billing and houses Internet equipment. In addition, the Company markets local Internet service under the Lynchburg.net and SurfWithUs.Net, sells computer hardware and services under the name Computers by Design and remanufactures toner and ink cartridges under the name CBD Toner Recharge here.  This facility has an annual rent of $46,200. The facility is located at 7109 Timberlake Road, Lynchburg, VA 24502, is leased from Frank R. Erhartic, Jr. a Company Director and Officer and this lease expires on November 1, 2006.

The Company cancelled the lease of a 2,500 square foot office facility in Mt. Airy, North Carolina effective October 31, 2005 where it sold computer hardware and services under the name of Computers by Design and sold Internet services under the name of Sitestar Advanced Internet Services. The Company also housed Internet equipment there to serve its customers in the Mt. Airy, North Carolina area. This facility had an annual rent of $6,000. The facility is located at 327 West Lebanon Street, Mt. Airy, NC 27030. It was leased from Nick Epperson on a month-to-month lease. The Company now out-sources the services to provide internet service for the customers in this area and the Company’s other offices provide technical and billing support for those customers previously provided at this location.

The Company leases a 950 square foot office facility in Virginia Beach, Virginia where it sells computer hardware and services and sells Internet services under the name of Sitestar Exis.net.

The Company anticipates that it may require additional space for its ISP operations as it expands, and it believes that it will be able to obtain suitable space as needed on commercially reasonable terms.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On December 31, 2002, New Millennium Capital Partners II, LLC and AJW Partners, LLC (the “Convertible Debenture Holders”) filed a complaint against the Company, its former officers and its current officers at the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the county of Nassau. The complaint alleged the Company breached their contract and fiduciary duties.  This proceeding was a dispute over the amount the Company owed on a convertible debenture. The dispute arose over a significant payment issued by a conversion of stock that was neither applied to the principal or interest balance. Effective January 31, 2004, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with the Convertible Debenture Holders whereby all legal action pending regarding the convertible debentures held by the Convertible Debenture Holders was dismissed.  The terms of the agreement included a cash payment of $100,000 plus 4,000,000 shares of stock valued at $.02 per share.  The Convertible Debenture Holders agreed to receive a limited amount of stock from their Escrow Agent each month with limits on how much could be sold.  In exchange, the Company agreed to guarantee a certain average price for the stock that was sold and gross up the balance, if any, the following year.  The Settlement Agreement is an
 
9

 
exhibit to Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated February 23, 2004. Demand for payment, per the terms of the settlement agreement, was made for the gross up balance on January 11, 2004 for $259,734.00. This amount is reflected in the December 31, 2004 balance sheet as a current liability and was subsequently paid in full on February 28, 2005.

The Company is not aware of any other pending or threatened litigation that could have a material adverse effect on its business.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) consists of revenue less cost of revenue and operating expense.  EBITDA is provided because it is a measure commonly used by investors to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. EBITDA is presented to enhance an understanding of the Company’s operating results and is not intended to represent cash flows or results of operations in accordance with

GAAP for the periods indicated. EBITDA is not a measurement under GAAP and is not necessarily comparable with similarly titled measures for other companies. See the Liquidity and Capital Resource section for further discussion of cash generated from operations.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2004
 
REVENUE.  Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased by $545,778 or 17.4% from $3,134,204 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $3,679,982 for the same period in 2005.  Internet sales increased $736,806 or 26.4% from $2,790,342 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $3,527,148 for the same period in 2005.  Internet sales increased due to the acquisition of dial—up customers.  While the Company continues to sign up new customers, the trend is moving towards growth in broadband internet connections resulting in the impairment of dial-up customers.  To insure continued strength in revenues, the Company has acquired and plans to continue to acquire the assets of Internet Service Providers, folding them into operations to provide future revenues. These new acquisitions, for the year ended December 31, 2005, yielded approximately $673,000 in additional net revenues. The Company also plans to market more aggressively on a national level utilizing scalable tactics and targeting a much larger Internet customer base. Retail sales decreased by $109,598 or 41.8% from $262,432 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $152,834 for the same period ended in 2005. Decreases in retail sales of new hardware reflect competition from large retail establishments and the change in focus of this division. The Company is focusing more on providing professional computer service and repair which carries lower volume of revenue but a higher profit margin.  

COST OF REVENUE.  Costs of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased by $133,508 or 11.3% from $1,185,966 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $1,052,458 for the same period in 2005.  Internet cost of revenue decreased $22,522 or 2.3% from $997,069 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $974,547 for the same period in 2005.  The decrease is due primarily to decreases in telecommunication expenses. Telecommunication expenses decreased by $20,562 or 2.8% from $746,125 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $725,563 for the same period in 2005. The Company is continuing to negotiate more favorable contracts with telecommunication vendors and making the network capacity more efficient. The Company expects to continue creating these efficiencies.   Retail cost of revenue decreased $39,156 or 33.4% from $117,067 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $77,911 for the same period in 2005.  The primary reason for the decrease is a lower level of retail sales of new hardware.
 
OPERATING EXPENSES.     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $199,255 or 12.4% from $1,600,877 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $1,800,132 for the same period in 2005.  This is due primarily to an increase in bad debts, offset in part by decreases in professional fees and insurance. Bad debts increased $189,844 or 68.7% from $276,152 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $465,996 for the same period in 2005. This was offset in part by decreases in professional fees of $13,447 or 19.4% from $69,486 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $56,039 for the same period ended in 2005. Insurance expenses decreased $26,279 or 48.5% from $54,244 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $27,965 for the same period in 2005.  Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased by $168,868 or 10.4% from $1,631,264 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $1,800,132 for the same period in 2005. The difference in selling, general and administrative expenses is due to the write down of intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2004 of $30,387 related to customer list impairment. 
 
Corporate expenses of $60,721 for the year ended December 31, 2005 consisted of professional fees of $56,039 and other expenses of $4,682. Corporate expenses of $105,803 for the year ended December 31, 2004 consisted of professional fees of $69,261, expenses from financing settlement of $18,216, interest expense of $15,802 and other expenses of $2,524.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased by $24,542 or 10.5% from $233,598 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $209,056 for the same period in 2005.  This decrease was a result of an average lower level of borrowing and more favorable interest rates.
 
BALANCE SHEET.   Net accounts receivable decreased $48,433 or 25.2% from $192,350 on December 31, 2004 to $143,917 on the same date in 2005.  Included in the net accounts receivable balance of $192,350 on December 31, 2004 is $77,386 due from telecommunication companies. Excluding the telecommunication receivables, net accounts receivable on December 31, 2005 increased by $28,953 or 25.2% from the same date in 2004. This increase is substantially due to the addition of the customer base from Idacomm. Inventory increased $17,198 or 16.2% from $106,388 on December 31, 2004 to $123,586 on December 31 2005.  This increase is primarily a result of restocking of inventory used in repairs
 
13

 
services. The retail sales are focusing more on providing technical and repair services to customers as opposed to selling new hardware with lower profit margins.  Due to the slow moving nature of inventory management has reclassified it on the balance sheets from current assets to other assets held for resale. Accounts payable decreased by $66,751 or 25.6% from $260,499 on December 31, 2004 to $193,748 for the same period in 2005. Accrued expenses increased by $36,415 or 25.6% from $141,975 on December 31, 2004 to $178,390 on December 31, 2005.  This net decrease of $30,336 or 7.5% reflects the Company’s improved cash flow.  Deferred revenue decreased by $44,756 or 12.2% from $366,311 on December 31, 2004 to $321,555 on December 31, 2005 representing a lower volume of customer accounts that have been prepaid. Total notes payable, including notes payable to shareholders, increased $612,209 or 46.5% from $1,315,226 on December 31, 2004 to $1,927,435 on December 31, 2005.  This is a primarily result of financing the acquisition of the Idacomm’s customers. This note, with terms of seven months, had a principal balance of $820,341 as of December 31, 2005. This increase in borrowing was offset in part by decreases in long-term notes payable, as well as, long-term notes payable to shareholders of $142,409 or 16.4% from $867,776 on December 31, 2004 to $725,367 on December 31, 2005.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $36,047 and $48,533 at December 31, 2005 and at December 31, 2004, respectively. EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) was $1,419,317 for the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared to $773,648 for the year ended December 31, 2004.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,715,797 as of December 31, 2005.  That condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However the Company believes that existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flow from operations and the Company’s ability to obtain favorable financing will be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. In October 2002, new management was installed.  New management has taken the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence and mitigate the concerns:
 
a)  Increase revenue through mergers and acquisitions and aggressive marketing of Internet services in a nationwide
campaign;
b)  Continue to cut costs by securing more favorable telecommunications rates;  
c)  Continue to cut operating expenses in payroll and related expenses; and
d)  Offering new products to reduce the impairment of intangible assets and expand the Company’s markets.

The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and its ability to obtain favorable financing will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.  If such sources of financing are insufficient or unavailable, or if the Company experiences shortfalls in anticipated revenue or increases in anticipated expenses, it may need to slow down or reduce its marketing and development efforts. Any of these events could harm the business, financial condition or results of operations.

On May 11, 2000, the Company issued two convertible debentures aggregating $500,000.  The debentures bore interest at 12% per annum and were due on May 1, 2001.  The debenture holders voluntarily decided to hold on to the debentures. The debentures were convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a rate equal to the lowest of $.70 or 60% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the Company's common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.  In addition, the Company also issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.77 per share.  Due to the preferential conversion feature of these debentures the Company recognized a financing charge of $242,857 (which represented the value of additional shares issuable upon conversion at the $.70 conversion price versus the number of shares issuable upon conversion at the market value at the date of issuance).  In addition, the warrants issued in connection with these debentures were valued at $121,543 using the Black-Scholes model.  Since these debentures were convertible on issuance, preferential conversion costs were expensed immediately and the value of the warrants were recognized as financing costs over the term of the debentures.

14

 
On August 14, 2000, the Company issued two additional convertible debentures aggregating $500,000 to the holders of the above-mentioned debentures for the same terms described above, except for the due date of August 14, 2001.  In connection with these debentures, the Company recognized a financing charge in 2000 in connection with the preferential conversion feature of $333,333 and valued the 250,000 warrants issued in connection with these debentures at $13,332 using the Black-Scholes model.  Since these debentures were convertible on issuance, the preferential conversion costs were expensed immediately and the value of the options was recognized as financing costs over the term of the debentures. 

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the holders of the debentures converted $12,200 of principal and $9,000 of accrued interest into 1,218,255 and 1,500,000, respectively, shares of the Company’s common stock.   In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company repaid $325,000 of these debentures in cash.

On a cumulative basis through December 31, 2002, the holders of the debentures converted $525,588 of principal and $99,820 of accrued interest into 14,319,156 and 5,176,352, respectively, shares of the Company’s common stock.  Also as of December 31, 2002, the Company had repaid $335,000 of these debentures in cash.

On December 31, 2002, New Millennium Capital Partners II, LLC and AJW Partners, LLC (the “Convertible Debenture Holders”) filed a complaint against the Company, its former officers and its current officers at the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The complaint alleged the Company breached its contractual and fiduciary duties.  This proceeding was a dispute over the amount owed on the convertible debentures. The original dispute arose over a significant payment issued by a conversion of stock that was neither applied to the principal or interest balance by the Convertible Debenture Holders.

Effective January 31, 2004, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the Agreement) with the Convertible Debenture Holders whereby all legal action pending regarding the convertible debentures held by the Convertible Debenture Holders was dismissed.  The Settlement Agreement is an exhibit to Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated February 23, 2004.

The terms of the Agreement include a cash payment of $100,000 plus the issuance of 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $.02 per share. The Agreement limited the number of shares the Convertible Debenture Holders could sell in any calendar month to 500,000 shares, beginning in May 2004.   In exchange, the Company agreed to guarantee an average price of $.08 per share for the stock that sold.  To the extent that there was a differential between the actual selling price and the guaranteed selling price, the Company was obligated to pay the differential to the Convertible Debenture Holders within thirty days of receiving a request for payment.  However, the request for payment could only have been made between January 1, 2005 and February 28, 2005. This request was made on February 1, 2005 and was payable no later than February 28, 2005. The Company has settled this request in cash in a timely manner.

As a result of signing the Agreement, the Company has recognized a contingent liability of $220,000 as of December 31, 2003 and a short-term liability of $259,734 as of December 31, 2004, representing the additional payment that was required under the terms of the Agreement related to the stock price guarantee.  

Sales of Internet services, which are not automatically processed via credit card or bank account drafts, have been the company’s highest exposure to collection risk.  

To help offset this exposure, the Company has added a late payment fee to encourage timely payment by customers. Another effort to improve customer collections was the implementation of a uniform manual invoice processing fee, which has also helped to speed up the collections procedures. These steps and more aggressive collection efforts have shifted accounts receivable to a more current status which is easier to collect. The balance in the Current category increased from 28.4% to 43.2% of total accounts receivable from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2005.  The balance in the 30+ day category decreased from 56.2% to 33.1% of total accounts receivable from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2005.  The balance in the 60+ day category increased from 15.4% to 23.7% of total accounts receivable from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2005.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Sitestar Corporation and Subsidiaries
Lynchburg, Virginia
 
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sitestar Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sitestar Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the results of their consolidated operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,715,797.  That condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

SITESTAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
 
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Organization and Line of Business
Sitestar Corporation (formerly Interfoods Consolidated, Inc., and prior to that, was formerly known as Holland American International Specialties (“HAIS”)), (the “Company”), began operations on June 1, 1997, under a partnership agreement, and was incorporated in California on November 4, 1997.  On July 26, 1999, the Company restated its Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to “Sitestar Corporation.”  The Company was in the international specialty foods distribution business.  In 1999, through the acquisition of two Internet Service Providers, the Company changed its focus from a food distribution company to an Internet holding company.  The operations of the Company's Internet subsidiaries are located primarily in the Mid Atlantic and Northwestern states of the United States and the corporate office is located in Lynchburg, Virginia.
 
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,715,797 as of December 31, 2005.  That condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However the Company believes that existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flow from operations and the Company’s ability to obtain favorable financing will be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. In October 2002, new management was installed.  New management has taken the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence and mitigate the concerns:
 
a)
Increase revenue through mergers and acquisitions and aggressive marketing of Internet services in a nationwide campaign;
b) Continue to cut costs by securing more favorable telecommunications rates;  
c)
Continue to cut operating expenses in payroll and related expenses; and
d) Offering new products to reduce the impairment of intangible assets and expand the Company’s markets.
 
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including:  Neocom Microspecialists, Inc. (subsequently renamed Sitestar.net, Inc.), FRE Enterprises, Inc. and Advanced Internet Services, Inc.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. At December 31, 2005, the significant estimates used by management include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of its customer lists and goodwill.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company's assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.  The amounts shown for notes payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates and terms offered to the Company for similar debt are substantially the same.
 
24

 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company defines cash equivalents as all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and, at times, may exceed the FDIC $100,000 insurance limit.  The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customers’ financial condition, generally without collateral.  Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition.  The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses.

Accounts Receivable
The Company grants credit in the form of unsecured accounts receivable to its customers.  The estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which is charged off to bad debt expense, is based on management’s assessment of current economic conditions and historical collection experience with each customer.  Specific customer receivables are considered past due when they are outstanding beyond their contractual terms and are charged off to the allowance for doubtful accounts when determined uncollectible.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, bad debt expense was $465,996 and $276,152 respectively.  As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, accounts receivable consists of the following:
   
 
 
2005
 
2004
 
Gross accounts receivable
 
$
157,751
 
$
204,342
 
Less allowance for doubtful accounts
   
(13,834
)
 
(11,992
)
   
$
143,917
 
$
192,350
 
 
Sales of Internet services, which are not automatically processed via credit card or bank account drafts, have been the company’s highest exposure to collection risk.  

To help offset this exposure, the company has added a late payment fee to encourage timely payments by customers. Another effort to improve customer collections was the implementation of a uniform manual invoice processing fee, which has also helped to speed up the collections process. Accounts over 90 days past due are no longer included in accounts receivable and are turned over to a collection agency.  

 
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the declining balance method based on estimated useful lives from 3 to 7 years for equipment and 39 years for buildings.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Gains and losses on disposals are included in the results of operations.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
 
The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment.  If there are indications of impairment, the Company uses future undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or asset grouping over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable.  In the event such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded asset values, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value.  Long-lived assets to be disposed are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value of the asset less cost to sell.

25

 
For the year ended December 31, 2004 the Company recognized an impairment of its customer list of $30,387 as a result of reduced customer original base in excess of amortization for two of the Company’s internet divisions.

The sale of the assets associated with Sitestar Applied Technologies does not fall under the reporting requirements of SFAS No. 144. The Company is maintaining a financial interest in the operations of Servatus Development LLC, the purchasing entity, and in addition, still maintains programming services for its customers. Per the Definitive Agreement to sell the assets, the Company is entitled to 20% of the gross revenue of Servatus Development, LLC for the first four years of operations. Also per the Definitive Agreement, the Company maintains the rights to the crisis management software developed by Sitestar Applied Technologies.
 
Intangible Assets
The Company continually monitors its intangible assets to determine whether any impairment has occurred.  In making such determination with respect to these assets, the Company evaluates the performance, on an undiscounted cash flow basis, of the intangible assets or group of assets.  Should impairment be identified, a loss would be reported to the extent that the carrying value of the related intangible asset exceeds its fair value using the discounted cash flow method.  

The Company's customer lists are being amortized over three and five years.  Amortization expense for the customer lists was $429,538 and $373,629 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.  Customer lists were impaired $30,387 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Amortization of customer lists for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 is expected to be $581,732, $521,871 and $317,567, respectively.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, amortization of goodwill ceased effective January 1, 2002.  For the year ended December 31, 2005 there was no impairment of goodwill.

The changes in goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:
 
 
 
2005
 
2004
 
Goodwill, at beginning of year
 
$
1,288,559
 
$
1,122,719
 
Goodwill recognized with issuance of shares of stock
   
   
165,840
 
Goodwill, at end of year
 
$
1,288,559
 
$
1,288,559
 
 
Inventory
Inventory consists principally of products purchased for resale and are maintained at the lower of cost (first in - first out basis) or market. Due to the slow moving nature of inventory management has reclassified it on the balance sheets from current assets to other assets held for resale

Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue represents collections from customers in advance for services not yet performed and are recognized as revenue in the period service is provided.
 
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue related to software licenses and software maintenance in compliance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition.” Product revenue is recognized when the Company delivers the product to the customer and the Company believes that collecting the revenue is probable.  The Company usually has agreements with its customers to deliver the requested product for a fixed price.  Any insignificant post-contract support obligations are accrued for at the time of the sale. Post-contract customer support (“PCS”) that is bundled with an initial licensing fee and is for one year or less is recognized at the time of the initial licensing, if collecting the resulting receivable is probable. The estimated cost to the Company to provide such services is minimal and historically, the enhancements offered during the PCS period have been minimal. The Company sells PCS under a separate agreement.  The agreements are for one to two years with a fixed number of hours of service for each month of the contract.  The contract stipulates a fixed monthly payment, non-refundable, due each month and any service hours incurred above the contractual amount are billed as incurred.  Revenue is recognized under these agreements ratably over the term of the agreement.  Revenue for services rendered in excess of the fixed monthly hours contained in the contracts are recognized as revenue as incurred.
 
26

 
The Company sells Internet services under annual and monthly contracts.  Under the annual contracts, the subscriber pays a one-time annual fee, which is recognized as revenue ratably over the life of the contract.  Under the monthly contracts, the subscriber is billed monthly and revenue is recognized for the period the service relates.
 
Sales of computer hardware are recognized as revenue upon delivery and acceptance of the product by the customer. Sales are adjusted for any returns or allowances.
 
Advertising and Marketing Costs
The Company expenses costs of advertising and marketing as they are incurred.  Advertising and marketing expenses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $90,000 and $84,000, respectively.
 
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
 
Income Per Share
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” the basic income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted income per common share is computed similar to basic income per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  The Company has no potentially dilutive securities.

Comprehensive Income
SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements.  As of and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had no items that represent other comprehensive income and therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.”  This Statement rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt,” and an amendment of that Statement, FASB Statement No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements” and FASB Statement No. 44, “Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers.”  This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions.  The statement was effective for the Company beginning in 2003.  The Company currently does not have any transactions that are within the scope of this statement.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”  This statement nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).”  This statement requires that a liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred instead of at the date an entity commits to an exit plan.  The statement was effective for the Company beginning in 2003. The Company currently does not have any transactions that are within the scope of this statement.
 
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.”  This interpretation sets forth expanded disclosure requirements in the financial statements about a guarantor’s obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued.  It also
 
27

 
clarifies that, under certain circumstances, a guarantor is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation at the inception of the guarantee.  Certain types of guarantees, such as product warranties, guarantees accounted for as derivatives, and guarantees related to parent-subsidiary relationships are excluded from the liability recognition provisions of Interpretation No. 45, however, they are subject to the disclosure requirements. The statement was effective for the Company beginning in 2003.  The Company currently does not have any transactions that are within the scope of this statement.
 
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.”  This statement amends SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to allow for alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock issued to team members.  This statement also amends FASB No. 123 to require disclosure of the accounting method used for valuation in both annual and interim financial statements.  This statement permits an entity to recognize compensation expense under the prospective method, modified prospective method or the retroactive restatement method. If an entity elects to adopt this statement, fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2003 must include this change in accounting for stock-based team member compensation.  The Company currently does not have any transactions that are within the scope of this statement.
 
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements.”  Interpretation No. 46 prescribes how to identify variable interest entities and how an enterprise assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity.  This interpretation requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among parties involved. Interpretation No. 46 is effective immediately for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date.  The interpretation applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003.  The Company does not have interests in variable interest entities and it does not believe the adoption of Interpretation No. 46 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
 
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”  This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”  The Company currently does not have any transactions that are within the scope of this statement.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” This statement establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The Statement also includes required disclosures for financial instruments within its scope. The Statement was effective for instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise was effective as of January 1, 2004, except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments.  For certain mandatorily redeemable financial instruments, the statement was effective as of January 1, 2005. The effective date has been deferred indefinitely for certain other types of mandatorily redeemable financial instruments.  The Company currently does not have any financial instruments that are within the scope of this Statement.

In March 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation Number 47 (“FIN 47”), “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations.” FIN 47 provides clarification regarding the meaning of the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in SFAS 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” FIN 47 is effective for the year ended December 31, 2005. The effect of FIN 47 on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows is immaterial.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, “Accounting for Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” SFAS 154 changes the requirements with regard to the accounting for and reporting a change in an accounting principle. The provisions of SFAS 154 require, unless impracticable, retrospective application to prior periods presented in financial statements for all voluntary changes in an accounting principle and changes required by the adoption of a new accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the new pronouncement does not indicate a specific transition method. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization or
 
28

 
depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate, which requires prospective application of the new method. SFAS 154 is effective for all changes in an accounting principle made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 154 beginning January 1, 2006. Because SAS 154 is directly dependent upon future events, the Company cannot determine what effect, if any, the expected adoption of SFAS 154 will have on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS
 
Sitestar.net (formerly Neocom Microspecialists, Inc.)
On December 15, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Neocom Microspecialists, Inc. (NEOCOM), a Virginia corporation now known as Sitestar.net, Inc., in exchange for 6,782,353 shares of the Company's common stock. Effective upon the closing of the acquisition, the Company issued 4,782,353 shares of its common stock.  In addition, the Company was required to issue an additional 2,000,000 shares of its common stock on the second anniversary of the acquisition date.  The shares were held back for any potential unrecorded liabilities.  In January 2002, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of this common stock to the original Sitestar.net shareholders that represented the contingent shares.  The value of these additional shares issued was $60,000, based on the market value of the shares at the date of issuance, and was recorded as additional goodwill in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
Lynchburg.net
On November 22, 2000, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of FRE Enterprises, Inc., a Virginia corporation (doing business as “Lynchburg.net” and “Computers by Design”) in exchange for 16,583,980 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Effective upon the closing of the acquisition, the Company issued 12,437,985 shares of common stock and reserved 4,145,995 shares of common stock to issue on the third anniversary of the acquisition (November 22, 2003) based on certain contingencies related to potential unrecorded and unknown liabilities.  The value of these additional shares issued was $165,840, based on the market value of the shares at the date of issuance and was recorded as additional goodwill in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Advanced Internet Services, Inc.
On July 1, 2001, the Company acquired 100% of the equity and voting interest of Advanced Internet Services, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (“ADVI”).  ADVI is an ISP located in Mt. Airy, North Carolina.  The purchase price was $965,980, which consisted of $150,000 in cash, transaction costs of $30,000, 6,021,818 of the Company’s common shares valued at $301,091 and a non-interest bearing promissory note for $1,199,990 (the present value was $484,889) payable in 24 quarterly installments of $51,078.  Due to the non-interest bearing nature of the note, the Company imputed a discount rate of 36% to calculate the present value of the note.  This discount rate was an estimate of the Company’s current cost of capital at the date of acquisition.

Digital Data Connections, Inc.
On December 31, 2002, the Company acquired 100% of the Internet-related assets of Digital Data Connections, Inc. (DigDat), a Virginia corporation and an ISP located in Martinsville, Virginia.  The purchase price was $161,523, which consisted of $50,000 in cash and a commitment to provide to the seller 80% of the collected Internet revenues for a period of ten months beginning January 1, 2003.  The contingent consideration of $111,523 was estimated based on the anticipated monthly collections.  Subsequent payments of contingent consideration have been applied to reduce the recorded liability.

The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.  Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of tangible assets acquired was attributed to the customer list and non-compete agreement, which was amortized over an estimated three-year life and contractual three-year life, respectively.  The value of the customer list was determined by multiplying the current market value per customer times the number of customers purchased at the time of the acquisition.

The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.  Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of tangible assets acquired was attributed to the customer list and non-compete agreement, which are being amortized over the estimated three year life and contractual three year life, respectively.  The value of the customer list was determined by multiplying the current market value per customer times the number of customers purchased at the time of the acquisition.

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

On May 11, 2000, the Company issued two convertible debentures aggregating $500,000.  The debentures bore interest at 12% per annum and were due on May 1, 2001.  The debenture holders voluntarily decided to hold on to the debentures. The debentures were convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a rate equal to the lowest of $.70 or 60% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the Company's common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.  In addition, the Company also issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.77 per share.  Due to the preferential conversion feature of these debentures the Company recognized a financing charge of $242,857 (which represented the value of additional shares issuable upon conversion at the $.70 conversion price versus the number of shares issuable upon conversion at the market value at the date of issuance).  In addition, the warrants issued in connection with these debentures were valued at $121,543 using the Black-Scholes model.  Since these debentures were convertible on issuance, preferential conversion costs were expensed immediately and the value of the warrant was recognized as financing costs over the term of the debentures.

On August 14, 2000, the Company issued two additional convertible debentures aggregating $500,000 to the holders of the above mentioned debentures for the same terms described above, except for the due date of August 14, 2001.  In connection with these debentures, the Company recognized a financing charge in 2000 in connection with the preferential conversion feature of $333,333 and valued the 250,000 warrants issued in connection with these debentures at $13,332 using the Black-Scholes model.  Since these debentures were convertible on issuance, the preferential conversion costs were expensed immediately and the value of the options was recognized as financing costs over the term of the debentures. 

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the holders of the debentures converted $12,200 of principal and $9,000 of accrued interest into 1,218,255 and 1,500,000, respectively, shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company repaid $325,000 of these debentures in cash.

On a cumulative basis through December 31, 2002, the holders of the debentures converted $525,588 of principal and $99,820 of accrued interest into 14,319,156 and 5,176,352, respectively, shares of the Company’s common stock.  Also as of December 31, 2002, the Company had repaid $335,000 of these debentures in cash.
 
32

 
On December 31, 2002, New Millennium Capital Partners II, LLC and AJW Partners, LLC (the “Convertible Debenture Holders”) filed a complaint against the Company, its former officers and its current officers at the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The complaint alleged the Company breached their contractual and fiduciary duties.  This proceeding was a dispute over the amount owed on the convertible debentures. The original dispute arose over a significant payment issued by a conversion of stock that was neither applied to the principal or interest balance by the Convertible Debenture Holders.

Effective January 31, 2004, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the Agreement) with the Convertible Debenture Holders whereby all legal action pending regarding the convertible debentures held by the Convertible Debenture Holders was dismissed.  The Settlement Agreement is an exhibit to Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated February 23, 2004.

The terms of the Agreement included a cash payment of $100,000 plus the issuance of 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $.02 per share. The Agreement limited the number of shares the Convertible Debenture Holders could have sold in any calendar month to 500,000 shares, beginning in May 2004. In exchange, the Company agreed to guarantee an average price of $.08 per share for the stock that sold.  To the extent that there was a differential between the actual selling price and the guaranteed selling price, the Company was obligated to pay the differential to the Convertible Debenture Holders within thirty days of receiving a request for payment.  However, the request for payment could have only been made between January 1, 2005 and February 28, 2005.

As a result of signing the Agreement, the Company has recognized a contingent liability of $220,000 as of December 31, 2003, representing management’s estimate of the potential additional payment that could have been required under the terms of the Agreement related to the stock price guarantee.  Demand for payment, per the terms of the settlement agreement, was made for the gross up balance on January 11, 2005 for $259,734. This amount was reflected in the balance sheet as a current liability. The Company settled this amount in cash on February 28, 2005.

NOTE 13 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective January 1, 2006, with a closing date of January 6, 2006, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement acquiring the Common Stock of Netrover, Inc. a Canadian corporation. The Definitive Agreement consisted of the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Netrover, Inc.’s stock and a non-compete agreement of the company.

NOTE 14 - RESTATED ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING SHARES

The Company restated shares deducted from the issued and outstanding status for the year ended December 31, 2002 for shares not cancelled for the period then ended. Certain restricted shares were restated to the issued and outstanding status to more accurately reflect their status on December 31, 2004.

NOTE 15 - CONTINUATION OF THE COMPANY AS A GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,592,211 as of December 31, 2005.  That condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However the Company believes that existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flow from operations and the Company’s ability to obtain favorable financing will be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. In October 2002, new management was installed.  New management has taken the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence and mitigate the concerns:
 
a)  Increase revenue through mergers and acquisitions and aggressive marketing of Internet services in a nationwide campaign;
b) Continue to cut costs by securing more favorable telecommunications rates;  
c) Continue to cut operating expenses in payroll and related expenses; and
d) Offering new products to reduce the impairment of intangible assets and expand the Company’s markets
