PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Our plan was to provide mobile grooming and spa services for cats and dogs. Our services were going to include bathing, hair cutting and styling, brushing/combing, flea and tick treatments, nail maintenance and beautification, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, hot oil treatments, and massage. We did not have any business operations and failed to generate any revenues. We abandoned this business, as we lacked sufficient capital resources. On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired Harbrew Imports, Ltd. (“Harbrew New York”), a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. Corp. (“Harbrew Florida”), a Florida corporation incorporated on January 4, 2007. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,151,984 shares of our Common Stock at the Closing, or approximately 64% of the 42,310,301 shares outstanding subsequent to the merger. After the merger, Harbrew New York continued as the surviving company under the laws of the state of New York and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

In anticipation of the merger between Iconic Brands, Inc. and Harbrew New York, on May 1, 2009 the Board of Directors and a majority of shareholders of Harbrew New York approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Iconic Imports”). On June 22, 2009, this action was filed with the New York State Department of State.

Prior to the merger on June 10, 2009, Iconic Brands had no assets, liabilities, or business operations. Accordingly, the merger has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports and the financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, and operations of Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports from its inception on September 8, 1999 to June 10, 2009 and are combined with Iconic Brands thereafter. Iconic Brands and its wholly-owned subsidiary Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.

The Company is a brand owner of self-developed alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, the Company imports, markets and sells these beverages throughout the United States and globally.

Effective June 10, 2009, prior to the merger, Harbrew Florida effected a 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split of its common stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 24,592,160 to 24,909, which includes a total of 317 shares resulting from the rounding of fractional shares. All share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

OUR BRANDS

Iconic markets specific beverage brands nationally and internationally. Some of the major brands marketed by us include:

o	Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello

Limoncello is a popular Italian after-dinner drink, traditionally served ice-cold. Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello is a lemon liqueur produced in Southern Italy, mainly in the region around the Gulf of Naples, the Amalfi coast and the Islands of Ischia and Capri, but also in Sicily, Sardinia and the Maltese island of Gozo. Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello is produced exclusively using lemons from Sorrento, Italy, which are harvested and immediately processed in a distillery situated on the Sorrento peninsula. At the October 2007 International Review of Spirits competition, this product was awarded a “Gold Medal” with 90 points and earned a rating of “Exceptional.” This international competition is run by the Beverage Tasting Institute of Chicago, an independent corporation. Harbrew believes that, in the U.S. market, the potential of our Limoncello drink has been virtually untapped. It also believes that Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello is the first “branded” product in an “unbranded” category. Harbrew has an exclusive perpetual license agreement with Seven Cellos, LLC, Danny DeVito’s company, and, in accordance with that agreement, net profits are shared between us and Seven Cellos, LLC. For the terms of that agreement, see “License Agreements” below.

o	Glen Master Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Glen Master Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a collection of single malt Scotch whiskies. Hand-picked, rather than randomly chosen, the Glen Master range of whiskies is the result of hours of expert nosing. The character of Scotch whisky is influenced by many factors, but prime among these is the quality of the cask and the storage conditions in which the whisky has been matured. Bottled at ambient temperature, the original style is enhanced with all the color coming naturally from the wood, as the whisky matures over the years. Judging when the whisky has reached its peak of perfection is a rare expertise that we believe the makers of Glen Master Single Malt Scotch Whisky possess.

o	St. Andrews “The Champion” Whisky

St. Andrews “The Champion” Whisky is a 21-year old blended Scotch whisky that comes in a limited number decanter with each box individually numbered. St. Andrews Beverages Limited, considered a master blender in the industry, has selected high quality malts and grain whiskies to create a marriage between these ingredients. The Champion received 86 points and was awarded a “Silver Medal” at the January 2005 International Review of Spirits competition, run by the Beverage Tasting Institute of Chicago. St Andrews whiskies, both single malt and blended, fit into our family of brands.

o	Bench 5 and Bench 15 Premium Scotch Whisky

Bench 5 Premium Scotch whisky is marketed as a well-matured and rounded five-year old Scotch whisky with a smooth mellow flavor. Our “celebrity brand partner” for this Scotch is Johnny Bench, the hall of fame catcher. Following in the footsteps of Bench 5, we also introduced Bench 15 Premium Scotch whisky, a 15-year old Scotch whisky.

The territory and years remaining on the term of each of our brand’s exclusivity are as follows:

Brand	Territory	Remaining Term

Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello	Worldwide	unlimited

St. Andrews “The Champion” Scotch Whisky	North America	5 years
Bench 5 and 15 Scotch Whisky	Worldwide	unlimited
Glen Master Single Malt Scotch	Worldwide	unlimited

Each of the above licenses is renewable by its terms.

GROWTH STRATEGY

Our objective is to continue to build a unique portfolio of global brands aimed at the premium market, with a primary focus on increasing both total and individual brand case sales. To achieve this, we intend to focus on the following:

Increase market penetration of existing brands. The utilization of the existing distribution relationships, sales expertise and targeted marketing activities to achieve growth and gain additional market share for the brands with retail stores, bars, restaurants and, ultimately, with the end consumers in the United States; adding experienced salespeople in selected markets; increase sales to national chain accounts and begin to penetrate international markets.

Build brand awareness through marketing, advertising and promotional activities. Building brand campaigns that emphasize the “Gold Medal” awards from the Beverage Tasting Institute of Chicago using advertising firms, billboards, print advertisements and in-store promotional materials, to increase consumer brand awareness.

Selectively add new brands to the portfolio. We intend to continue developing new brands and pursuing strategic relationships, joint ventures and, to a lesser extent, acquisitions, to selectively expand the portfolio of brands. In particular, we will focus on our demonstrated ability to partner with celebrities to create unique brands that reflect each celebrity’s image within their marketplace.

MARKETING STRATEGY

We are in the process of building our brands into the United States market. To achieve this end, we are focusing on penetrating select markets with the intention of influencing the remainder of the country as a result. We believe that the key national markets in the United States for our products are New York, Florida, Texas, California, Illinois and Massachusetts. We believe that creating brand awareness — both awareness of the brands, as well as the appropriate impression associated with them — in these select markets is of the utmost importance, as these markets tend to be the opinion leaders for the country.

We intend to vigorously market our brands by utilizing a combination of both traditional media and non-traditional, Internet-specific methods and campaigns. Initially, marketing is focused on the key national markets. Our marketing campaigns have four separate marketing objectives:

o	Create each brand, its placement and value in the marketplace;

o	Ensure a steady interest among distributors, wholesalers and both categories of retail outlets;

o	Create brand awareness and appetite in the mind of the consuming public; and

o	Penetrate throughout all key markets within the United States.

DIRECT SALES STRATEGY

Within the spirits distribution industry, the key mode of sales generation is tied to a direct sales force for both the importer and distributor business lines. We intend to increase our sales staff by adding four new sales people to our New York sales force. These salespeople will not only sell in the New York metropolitan market, but will assist in our national exposure efforts.

During the next 12 months, we intend to dedicate additional people both to the New York sales force, as well as defined personnel for the national efforts. This national sales force will target distributors in the key markets, as well as large secondary markets in the cities of Atlanta, Philadelphia, Dallas and Houston, among others.

DISTRIBUTION NETWORK

We believe that our distribution network and New York State wholesale license are among our competitive strengths. We believe that the rapid introduction of Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello in the major markets with subsequent re-orders during the holiday season reinforces and further bolsters our confidence in our ability to bring new brands to market and quickly establish them as brands of choice. Additionally, we believe the awards given by the Beverage Tasting Institute of Chicago for Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello confirms our ability to not only develop new products, but to recognize the value of brands selected.

Domestic Distribution

General. Importers of distilled spirits in the United States must sell their products through a three-tier distribution system. An imported brand is first sold to a U.S. importer, which then sells it to a network of distributors, or wholesalers, covering the United States, in either “open” states or “control states. In the 31 open states, the distributors are generally large, privately-held companies. In the 19 control states, the states themselves function as the distributor, and suppliers like our company are regulated by these states. The distributors and wholesalers, in turn, sell to the individual liquor retailers, such as liquor stores, restaurants, bars, supermarkets and other outlets in the states in which they are licensed to sell beverage alcohol. In larger states such as New York, more than one distributor may handle a brand in separate geographical areas. We are a licensed wholesaler in the state of New York, which gives us a competitive advantage in bringing a product to this large market in the shortest time possible. In control states, where liquor sales are controlled by the state governments, importers must sell their products directly to the state liquor authorities, which also act as the distributors and either maintain control over the retail outlets or license the retail sales function to private companies, while maintaining strict control over pricing and profit.

Importation. We own most of our brands or, by contract, have the exclusive right to act as the U.S. importer of the brands in our portfolio. We have both the federal importer and wholesaler license required by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, a division of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and a wholesale liquor license issued by New York State. For those states in which we do not have a wholesale license, we use the services of distributors who have the proper licenses to distribute our products.

Wholesalers and Distributors. In the United States, we are required by law to use state licensed distributors or, in the control states, state-owned agencies performing this function, to sell our brands to the various retail outlets. As a result, we are dependent on them not only for sales, but also for product placement and retail store penetration. We do not have distribution agreements or minimum sales requirements with any of our U.S. alcohol distributors and they are under no obligation to place our products or market our brands. In addition, all of them also distribute the products and brands of our competitors. To that end, the fostering and maintaining of relationships with the distributors is a key to introducing and maintaining product placements and growth within each marketplace.

PUBLIC RELATIONS, ADVERTISING AND TRADE SHOWS

We intend to engage a public relations firm to ensure proper press coverage in spirits industry trade publications. Our public relations efforts will target influential retail outlets, such as popular clubs and restaurants, as well as very specific “image makers,” who have influence on popular trends.

We pursue a selective advertising campaign to promote our brands in appropriate trade magazines such as Market Watch, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Penthouse, US magazine, People, Vanity Fair (November and December 2008) and Details (November and December 2008), as well as select influential consumer magazines, such as New York, Time-Out and InStyle, and the city’s high-volume tabloid newspapers. In future years, these print campaigns will be augmented by radio and outdoor buys in key marketplaces. We believe that these placements represent value-added purchases as they have lower cost per thousand page impressions (CPMs) and can more fully illustrate the value and quality of our products.

We intend to expand on our interactive and integrated corporate website, www.iconicbrandsusa.com, to include a fully interactive demonstration of our brands, highlighting all the specific advantages of our offerings. We are pursuing a method by which a “virtual store” can be established to aid the distributors and retail customers in placing orders and helping them to monitor their inventories of our products.

Trade shows are and will remain an integral part of our marketing concept for the purpose of attracting both distributors and wholesalers. In particular, marketing investments are budgeted for several industry-specific expositions. We believe that by attending these annual events, it will aid in establishing our brands and our company as an emergent leader for the industry.

BONDED WAREHOUSE

By maintaining our own bonded warehousing facilities, we gain added flexibility in managing our inventory. Bonded warehouses carry different classifications. One classification allows a bonded warehouse proprietor/company to only warehouse the product that is owned by the proprietor/company and not the property of other companies. The other classification allows a bonded warehouse proprietor/company to both warehouse the product that is owned by the proprietor/company and the property of other companies. We maintain both levels of this license. We believe the fact that one’s inventory is in its own facility where the primary business is conducted gives our company flexibility. We can move product from an “In Bond” condition to a “Tax Paid” condition under our own timeline due to our direct control of the inventory under our company’s own roof. Another advantage of a company having its own bonded warehouse and being in the import and distribution of alcoholic beverages is the company from time to time will run marketing programs that require the product to be enhanced by adding what is referred to as a “value added component” to it. One such example is the addition of gift packaging and then marketing the product as a value-added gift pack. Without a bonded warehouse license under its own control, a company seeking to offer such value-added gift pack would not only have to pay an outside co-packer to perform the manipulation, but would have to pay the federal FET tax in advance of shipping the product to distributors or the trade.

Another advantage is the positive impact having a bonded warehouse has on the company’s cash flow. The company will keep the majority or bulk of the inventory it possesses in an “In Bond” condition until such time as it needs the inventory for sale. The company would then instruct its custom broker to pay the duty on a designated amount of inventory and move the inventory from an “In Bond” status to a “Tax Paid” condition. This process actually gives the company an additional ten or more days of cash flow until the ACH, the automatic transfer of the tax from the company’s account to the federal government. The federal excise tax can significantly impact a company’s cash flow in terms of actual dollars. On a standard nine-liter case of 80-proof Scotch Whiskey, which costs a company approximately $50 per case, the federal excise tax is approximately $30 per case.

LICENSE AGREEMENTS

On April 26, 2007, we entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Seven Cellos, LLC, pursuant to which we were granted a limited license to certain rights in and to Danny DeVito’s name, likeness and biography for use by us in connection with Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello. The term of the agreement continues in perpetuity unless the agreement is terminated upon prior notice. In consideration for the license, we agreed to pay royalties as follows: 5% of net profits to Behr Abrahamson & Kaller, LLP and a payment of 50% of the remaining net profits to Danny DeVito. In addition, we granted a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of our Common Stock to Mr. DeVito, for an exercise price equal to the lower of $1.00 per share or 85% of the 30-day average bid and ask price prior to exercise. We also granted a warrant to Behr Abrahamson to purchase 20,000 shares of our Common Stock for an exercise price equal to the lower of $1.00 per share or 85% of the 30-day average bid and ask price prior to exercise. Danny DeVito agreed to use reasonable efforts to be available for a reasonable number of promotional appearances during each consecutive 12-month period, the duration of which will not exceed two days. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. DeVito granted us a right of first refusal for a period of five years to license any other liquor, spirit or alcoholic beverage which Danny may determine to endorse or develop. A condition precedent to Danny DeVito’s performance under the agreement is our applying for a trademark for the brand name “Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello,” with Danny DeVito being designated as a 50% co-owner of the such trademark. We applied for the trademark on April 10, 2007 (trademark application number 377/152,934), which application is currently being reviewed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we entered into an Addendum to the License Agreement whereby we granted Danny Devito the right to receive notice and provide his prior written consent for any material contract that we enter into. Failure to obtain such consent will permit Danny Devito to terminate the License Agreement.

On January 15, 2010, we entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Tony Siragusa, pursuant to which we were granted a limited license to certain rights in and to Tony Siragusa’s name, likeness and biography for use by us in connection with Tony Siragusa’s YO Vodka. The term of the agreement is four (4) years. In consideration for the license, we agreed to distribute net profits of the venture as follows: 42.5 % to the company, 42.5% to the licensor, 10% to William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, LLC and 5% to Brian Hughes. In addition, we issued 250,000 shares of the company’s common stock, and warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.00, and a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.50.Tony Siragusa agreed to use reasonable efforts to be available for a reasonable number of promotional appearances during each consecutive 12-month period, the duration of which will not exceed six days. A condition precedent to Tony Siragusa’s performance under the agreement is our applying for a trademark for the brand name “Yo Vodka,” with Licensor being designated as a 50% co-owner of such trademark. We applied for the trademark on March 9, 2010 (trademark application number 77747523), which application is currently being reviewed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

MANUFACTURING AGREEMENTS

In August 2007, we entered into an Exclusive Manufacturing Agreement with Fagema Sorrento Delizie Di De Luca Antonino and Scala Antonino, an Italian corporation. The term of the agreement is for five years from August 18, 2007, and it automatically renews for additional, consecutive five-year terms unless either party gives written notice at least 90 days prior to the end of the then current term. In return for Fagema Sorrento Delizie Di De Luca Antonino and Scala Antonino’s manufacture and shipping of Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello, we pay between $65 and $68 per case of 12 750-ml. bottles. This is an exclusive contract where Fagema Sorrento Delizie Di De Luca Antonino and Scala Antonino is bound to not manufacture or sell Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello to anyone other than us, and we are bound to not purchase Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello from any other manufacturer.

COMPETITION

We compete on the basis of the strength of our quality, price, brand recognition and distribution. The premium brands compete with other alcoholic beverages for consumer purchases and for shelf space in retail stores, restaurant presence and wholesaler attention. In addition to the six major companies listed below, we compete with numerous international producers and distributors of beverage alcohol products, many of which have greater resources than are currently available to us. According to Beverage Media, over the past ten years, the U.S. distilled spirits industry has undergone dramatic consolidation and realignment of brands and brand ownership. The number of major spirit importers in the United States has significantly declined due to mergers and brand ownership changes and consolidation. While historically there were a substantial number of companies owning one or more major brands, today there are six major companies: Diageo PLC, Pernod Ricard SA, Bacardi Ltd., Brown-Forman Corp., Fortune Brands Inc. and Constellation Brands. We believe that we are in a better position to partner with small to mid-size brands in that we can make quicker decisions and move to market faster than these larger organizations.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

We hold several federal beverage alcohol permits and are subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (27 C.F.R. Parts 19, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 71 and 252), U.S. Customs Laws (U.S.C. Title 19), Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ( Subtitles E and F), and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Laws of all 50 states. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau of the United States Treasury Department regulate the spirits industry with respect to production, blending, bottling, sales and advertising and transportation of alcohol products. Each state regulates the advertising, promotion, transportation, sales and distribution of alcohol products within its jurisdiction. We are required to conduct business in the United States only with holders of licenses to import, warehouse, transport, distribute and sell spirits.

Labeling of spirits is also regulated in many markets, varying from health warning labels to importer identification, alcohol strength and other consumer information. Specific warning statements related to risks of drinking beverage products are required to be included on all beverage alcohol products sold in the United States.

In the so-called control states, the state liquor commissions act in place of distributors and decide which products are to be purchased and offered for sale in their respective states. Products are selected for purchase and sale through listing procedures that are generally made available to new products only at periodically-scheduled listing interviews. Products not selected for listings can only be purchased by consumers through special orders, if at all. The following states are control states: Alabama, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming. In addition, Montgomery County in Maryland is a controlled county. The distribution of alcohol-based beverages is also subject to extensive taxation at both the federal and state level.

The industry is subject to regulations that limit or preclude certain persons with criminal records from serving as our officers or directors. Certain regulations prohibit parties with consumer outlet ownership from becoming officers, directors or substantial shareholders. We believe that we are in material compliance with all applicable federal, state and other regulations. We operate in a highly regulated industry which may be subject to more stringent interpretations of existing regulations. Future costs of compliance with changes in regulations could be significant.

We are primarily an importer of distilled spirits produced outside the United States. Adverse effects of regulatory changes are more likely to materially affect earnings and our competitive market position rather than capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in the spirits industry are normally associated with either production facilities or brand acquisition costs. Because we are not a U.S. producer, changes in regulations affecting production facility operations may indirectly affect the costs of the brands we purchase for resale, but we would not anticipate any resulting material adverse impact upon our capital expenditures.

Our industry is dominated by global conglomerates with international brands. Therefore, to the extent that more restrictive marketing and sales regulations are adopted in the future, or excise taxes and customs duties are increased, our earnings could be materially adversely affected. Large international conglomerates have far greater financial resources than we do and would be better able to absorb increased compliance costs.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2009, we have 9 full-time employees. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe we have good relations with our employees. Following our planned funding and expansion later this year, we intend to hire an additional 5 employees. These employees will perform functions in the areas of in-house compliance, accounting, sales, marketing, warehousing and deliveries.

CONSULTANTS

On January 4 2010, an advisory engagement letter was entered into between the Company and CorProminence LLC, under which CorProminence would provide services for management consulting, business advisory, shareholder information and public relations. In return for the services contemplated, the Company issued 300,000 restricted shares of the company’s common stock

On March 16, 2010, an amendment was made to the agreement with Cresta Capital Strategies LLC extending their services for 12 months. In consideration of this extension, the company will issue 2,000,000 shares of common stock and reduce the price of their warrants to twenty-five (.25) cents.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Rental agreements – The Company occupied its facilities in Freeport, New York up until March 2009 under a month to month agreement at a monthly rent of $14,350. In March 2009, the Company moved its facilities to Lindenhurst, New York pursuant to a three year lease agreement providing for annual rentals ranging from $85,100 to $90,283. Provided certain conditions are met, the Company has an option to renew the lease for an additional two years at annual rentals ranging from $92,991 to $95,781.

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. 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.

On or about January 24, 2008, Connecticut Container Corp., a wholesale distributor of packaging materials, initiated litigation against us in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in Nassau County (Docket No. 1458/08). The plaintiff had demanded payment of an aggregate of $31,693 in connection with certain amounts allegedly owed by us. On August 7, 2008, we settled the litigation for the full amount. We agreed to pay one-half of such amount on each of August 20, 2008 and September 20, 2008. We paid $24,500 and due to non-payment of the remaining amount a judgment for $7,443 was issued against us by the court.

On February 14, 2008, Chester Stewart, an individual, initiated a lawsuit in the State of Connecticut Superior Court (Docket No. D.N. HHD CV08-5018180S) alleging breach of a promissory note in the amount of $100,000. A judgment was entered in Connecticut, and will be defended when the action is entered in New York. .

On or about July 24, 2008, Elite Marketing Concepts, a wholesale distributor of wine, initiated litigation against us in the Supreme Court of New York in Nassau County (Docket No. 08-009338). The plaintiff has demanded payment in the amount of $32,270 for goods sold and delivered to us by the plaintiff. On August 15, 2008, we reached an agreement to pay Elite $29,000 in two equal payments. We paid the first $14,500 and due to non-payment a judgment was issued against us on June 5, 2009 in the amount of $9,679. On May 6, 2009 a payment of $4,129.12 was made bringing the balance to $2,549.88

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion is an overview of the important factors that management focuses on in evaluating our business, financial condition and operating performance and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of any number of factors.

OUR BUSINESS

Prior to the consummation of the Merger Agreement, Harbrew New York was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harbrew Florida. Harbrew Florida was incorporated in the state of Florida on January 4, 2007, under the former name Stassi Harbrew Imports Corp., pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court Approved Reorganization Plan for the Stassi Interaxx, Inc. (“Stassi”) reorganization confirmed on December 20, 2006. On May 17, 2007, Harbrew Florida acquired Harbrew New York, a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 engaged in importing and wholesaling spirits, wine and beer. As a result, Harbrew New York became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harbrew Florida.

On June 10, 2009, Merger Sub, Harbrew Florida, Harbrew New York and we entered into a Merger Agreement which resulted in Harbrew New York becoming our wholly owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). The Merger was accomplished by means of a Merger Agreement in which Harbrew New York merged with and into Merger Sub and each share of Harbrew’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was converted into one share of Iconic Brands’ common stock. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and as a result of the Merger:

·	Harbrew New York became our wholly owned subsidiary; and

·	In exchange for all of the shares of Harbrew common stock, each share of Harbrew’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was converted into one share of Iconic Brands’ common stock.

This transaction closed on June 10, 2009.

Prior to the merger on June 10, 2009, we had no assets, liabilities, or business operations. Accordingly, the merger has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer, Harbrew New York, and the financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, and operations of Harbrew New York from its inception on September 8, 1999 to June 10, 2009 and us thereafter. References to our company are with respect to Harbrew New York to June 10, 2009 and us thereafter.

We are in the business of importing and wholesaling spirits, wine and beer to distributors in the United States on a national basis and to retail licensees both on and off premise in New York, through our wholesale license. We are federally licensed, maintaining licenses to both import and sell to wholesale licensed distributors in 51 markets in the United States. In addition to the federal import and wholesale licenses, we maintain a federal customs bonded facility license for our premises in Lindenhurst, New York. Within the licensing category, we also maintain a New York State wholesale license and a New York State warehousing license, permitting us to warehouse products of other companies.

Sales:

Sales decreased by $791,965, or 50.6%, from $1,565,520 for the period ended December 31, 2008 to $773,555 for the period ended December 31, 2009. This decrease in sales reflects the Company’s re-focus on its celebrity branded products as it directs resources to its organically developed brand portfolio as opposed to the distribution of the products of others.

Cost of goods sold:

Cost of goods sold decreased by $549,548, or 47.2%, from $1,163,042 for the period ended December 31, 2008 to $613,494 for the period ended December 31, 2009. This decrease in COGS is consistent with the decrease in sales for the period as the Company shifts its focus and resources towards its organically developed brand portfolio.

Gross profit:

Gross profit decreased by $242,417, or 60.2%, from $402,478 for the period ended December 31, 2008 to $160,061 for the period ended December 31, 2009 mainly due to the decrease in sales as the Company refocuses its resources to its organically developed brands.

Selling, general and administrative expenses:

Selling general and administrative expenses for the period ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $4,509,088 and $2,854,184, respectively, an increase of $1,654,904, or 60.0%. The increase was due to professional fees incurred in connection with financing activities.

Income (loss) from Operations:

Loss from operations was $4,349,027 for the period ended December 31, 2009 and $2,451,706 for the period ended December 31, 2008. The 77.4% increase in the loss from operations for the period resulted from the decrease in sales and the increase in expenses as previously described.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense for the period ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $656,818 and $1,227,627, respectively, a decrease of $570,809, or 46.5%. The decrease in interest expense for the period was a result of a rate reset by our largest creditor.

Net Income (loss):

Net loss was $4,907,434 for the period ended December 31, 2009, compared to $3,679,333 for the period ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $1,228,101, or 33.4%. The slight increase in the net loss for the period was a result of decreased sales, professional fees incurred relating to financing activities, and an interest rate reset by our largest creditor.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary uses of cash have been for selling and marketing expenses, employee compensation, new product development and working capital. The main sources of cash have been from the financing of purchase orders and the factoring of accounts receivable. In addition, we issued convertible notes and promissory notes to bridge the gap between our primary lender and our working capital requirements. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business and establishing the brand portfolios. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

· An increase in working capital requirements to finance higher level of inventories and accounts receivable,

· Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows,

· Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing and new brands as the company expands within existing markets or enters new markets,

· Development of new brands to complement our current celebrity portfolio, and

· The cost of being a public company and the continued increase in costs due to governmental compliance activities.

Impact of Inflation

We expect to be able to pass inflationary increases for raw materials and other costs on to our customers through price increases, as required, and do not expect inflation to be a significant factor in our business.

Seasonality

Although our operating history is limited, we do not believe our products are seasonal.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our Company's operating results and financial condition.

In addition to having been the national provider for The Paddington Corporation brands through the 1990s, Mr. DeCicco pioneered what is now known within the field as Value Added Packaging.

Additionally, Mr. Blacker shall be entitled to medical, disability and dental insurance, retirement benefits and an automobile allowance of $350 per month.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers and any other directors or executive officers.

Code of Ethics

We currently do not have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer and senior executives, however, we intend to adopt one in the near future.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors, and us.

From time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with ours with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated. Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither we nor our shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

Further, because we intend to transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.

With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Iconic Brands, Inc.

I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s present financial situation raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Our plan was to provide mobile grooming and spa services for cats and dogs. Our services were going to include bathing, hair cutting and styling, brushing/combing, flea and tick treatments, nail maintenance and beautification, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, hot oil treatments, and massage. We did not have any business operations and failed to generate any revenues. We abandoned this business, as we lacked sufficient capital resources. On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired Harbrew Imports, Ltd. (“Harbrew New York”), a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. Corp. (“Harbrew Florida”), a Florida corporation incorporated on January 4, 2007. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of our Common Stock at the Closing, or approximately 64% of the 42,510,301 shares outstanding subsequent to the merger. After the merger, Harbrew New York continued as the surviving company under the laws of the state of New York and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company is a brand owner of self-developed alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, the Company imports, markets and sells these beverages throughout the United States and globally.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Presentation

The financial statements have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as of December 31, 2009, the Company had negative working capital of $2,531,288 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $4,223,959. Further, from inception to December 31, 2009, the Company incurred losses of $13,385,569. These factors create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition as recently launched products mature and brand awareness increases, thereby increasing the profitability of its operations. Additionally, the Company intends to obtain new financing which will primarily be used to market and promote Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello and other new products. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing these objectives. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

(b) Use of 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, current portion of debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and long term debt. Except for long term debt, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to their short term maturity.

(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2009

(e) Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.

(f) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, with due consideration given to obsolescence and to slow moving items.

(g) Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net

Property, plant, and equipment, net, is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

(h) Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) the price is fixed or determinable, (3) collectibility is reasonably assured, and (4) delivery has occurred. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement and fixed price criteria are satisfied through purchase orders. Collectibility criteria is satisfied through credit approvals. Delivery criteria is satisfied when the products are shipped to a customer and title and risk of loss pass to the customer in accordance with the terms of sale. The Company has no obligation to accept the return of products sold other than for replacement of damaged products. Other than quantity price discounts negotiated with customers prior to billing and delivery (which are reflected as a reduction in sales), the Company does not offer any sales incentives or other rebate arrangements to customers.

(i) Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are reported as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. Shipping costs, which are included in selling, marketing and promotion expenses, were $8,000 and $51,493 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Handling costs, which primarily represents warehousing costs and are included in occupancy and warehousing expenses, were $7,368 and $15,832 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

(k) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation- Stock Compensation”. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, stock-based compensation totaled $2,714,868 and $640,873, respectively. These amounts consist of stock-based compensation given to Company officers and consulting firms, which are included in administrative compensation and benefits and professional fees, respectively.

(l) Foreign Currency Transactions

Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in other selling, general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, foreign currency transaction losses were $0.

(m) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

(n) Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.

8. INCOME TAXES

From September 9, 1999 (inception) to December 31, 2006, the Company filed its Federal and New York income tax returns as an S Corporation. Accordingly, the net income (loss) of the Company for this period was includible in the tax returns of the Company shareholders and the Company was not subject to income tax.

No provision for income taxes was recorded in the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 since the Company incurred a net loss in these periods.

Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of $2,784,548 attributable to the future utilization of the $7,955,852 net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2009 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2009. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The $7,955,852 net operating loss carryforward expires $3,126,077 in 2027, $2,948,525 in 2028, and $1,881,250 in 2029.

Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company calculated cumulative “Net Profits” from the brand to be negative and thus did not pay or accrue any royalty expense under the License Agreement.

Merchandising license agreement - On June 12, 2009, Iconic Imports, Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a merchandising license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Paramount Licensing Inc., (“PLI”) granting Iconic Imports the non-exclusive right to use the title of the theatrical motion picture “The Godfather” in connection with the development, importation, marketing, and distribution of an Italian organic vodka and Scotch whiskey throughout the United States. Under the terms of the License Agreement, which has a term of 5 years ending on June 30, 2014 and may be extended to June 30, 2019 upon certain conditions unless it is sooner terminated, the Company agreed to pay PLI a royalty fee of five percent (5%) and guarantee a total of $400,000 in royalties due as follows; (1) $60,000 as an advance payment due upon signing of the License Agreement, (2) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2010, (3) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2011, and (4) $140,000 due on or before November 1, 2012.

On August 12, 2009, the Company paid $60,000 to PLI as the advance royalty due under the License Agreement. The License Agreement became effective on this date as the advance payment was a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the License Agreement.

At March 31, 2010, the Company has not yet commenced sales of the product named “The Godfather”. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company expensed $40,000 (included in selling, marketing and promotion expenses in the consolidated statement of operations) to provide for the ratable accrual of the $400,000 minimum royalties over 5 year term of the License Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, if Mr. DeCicco is absent from work because of illness or incapacity cumulatively for more than 2 months in addition to vacation time in any calendar year, the Company may terminate the agreement upon 30 days written notice. The agreement also provides that the agreement may be terminated upon 90 days notice to Mr. DeCicco if: (A) there is a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets to a single purchaser or group of associated purchasers; (B) there is a sale, exchange or disposition of 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s outstanding stock; (C) the Company terminates its business or liquidates its assets; or (D) there is a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company’s shareholders receive less than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the new or continuing corporation.

Employment agreement with chief financial officer - On October 1, 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its chief financial officer William Blacker. The agreement provides for a term of 3 years, commencing on October 1, 2007. The term can be extended by a written agreement of the parties. The Company agreed to issue options to purchase shares of its common stock to Mr. Blacker if and when the common stock becomes publicly traded, as follows: (A) upon execution of the agreement, 100,000 options at an exercise price of $0.05 per share; (B) on October 1, 2008, 100,000 options at an exercise price of $0.15 per share; and (C) on October 1, 2009, 100,000 options at an exercise price of $.75 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Blacker is to receive an annual salary of $150,000. Mr. Blacker has the right to terminate the agreement upon 60 days notice to the Company for any reason. The agreement further provides that if the agreement is terminated for any reason other than willful malfeasance by Mr. Blacker, Mr. Blacker shall be entitled to receive severance pay in the amount of 6 months or the balance of the agreement’s term of existence, whichever is greater, and shall receive all benefits under the agreement.

The $16,850 estimated fair value of the 300,000 options (using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: $0.10 stock price, 4% risk free interest rate, 100% volatility, and term of 3.5 years) is being amortized over the 3 year term of the employment agreement as compensation and benefits.

Legal proceedings – The Company is party to a variety of legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. We accrue for these items as losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the results of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

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

None.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “Company’s disclosure, controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules Rule 13a-15(3) and 15-d-15(3) of the e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (the “Evaluation Date”). As a result of such evaluation, Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our such disclosure, controls and procedures are effective, providing them with material to provide reasonable assurance that the information relating to our company as required to be disclosed in the reports we file the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act on a timely basis.

There were no changes in our internal controls over of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial reporting, known to our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, persons performing such functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective for the purposes for which it is intended.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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